Especially important is your note about the 2nd drain. Mine had about 1/2 cup of water in it. Thank you so much for making this as it was extremely helpful.

Thank you so much. This is not a straight forward job and thank you for the info about the water ingress into the intake! Our recently purchased touregs filter was wet and crumbling! I fashioned a pick and cleared the drain and 8 to 10 oz of water drained onto the pavement. You might have saved us the cost of a turbo! Thank you so much!!!!

Excellent production, clear instructions and points out common mistakes not to make. Thanks

Thank you for the great info and video. Will attempt to do a visual of the filter this weekend. Cheers

Thank you for a brilliant tutorial.

Really informative, thanks for the detailed step by step guide. 🤔😀

Well produced and informative video. Thank you!

Thanks mate, really helpfull

Thanks very much for your effort here - it is much appreciated!

Wow what an awesome tutorial you can’t do it any better than that

Very helpful, thank you very much..

Perfect! Thank you

This Touareg appears to be almost new. But it might be more than 12 years old!

Excellent video.

I wonder if you drilled a drain hole in the bottom of that air box to drain that water if that would mitigate it more than using the every few thousand mile "tool" that you developed. A passive vs reactive method. But either way great video.

How is your engine compartment so clean? I inherited my 2015 TDI, and I haven't yet gotten up the nerve to tackle cleaning under the hood

Is there any merit in an after market alternative/ replacement? The standard air box system seems very flawed.Especially if it could end in a catastrophic engine failure
