Is there any special tool to remove the hose from fuel filter, especially if gets stubborn and won't come out.

@thenotsonicecanuck 8 ай бұрын

Not that I’m aware of. What I typically do with stuck hoses is I put a pair of pliers around them gently and try to rotate the hose. That tends to free it up and allow it to be pried off with a flat blade screwdriver. The last resort is slicing it with a razor blade and then replacing the hose.

Do you happen to have a part number for the fuel filter? Im not finding one that says its a match on ECS Tuning

I’ve used both of these in the past. Mahle KL916 or Hengst H355WK I’ve ordered them from FCP Euro

@@thenotsonicecanuck thanks man. I appreciate that. I bought a 15' Q5 just over a month ago and I'm getting errors for HPFP. I'm gonna replace that as well as the cam follower and fuel filter. I had no idea about VCDS untill I saw this video so I went ahead and ordered the hexV2. Again, thank you. Very helpful

No problem, always willing to help out and answer questions. VCDS is a lifesaver when it comes to diagnosing and repairing VW and Audi’s. There’s a ton of documentation online about how to use it and it’s a really powerful tool to have.

Don't suppose you know if this is exact same procedure for the 2009 Q5?

@thenotsonicecanuck Жыл бұрын

There’s potential for some slight differences due to a ‘09 being pre facelift and mine being post facelift but I would think the overall process would be pretty close to the same if it’s still a 3.0L TDI.

Can i skip the VCDS work after replacing fuel filter?

@thenotsonicecanuck 4 ай бұрын

Technically yes but it puts more strain on your fuel system and ignition system if you don't prime it. Basically you'll have to sit on the key until it primes and wants to run on its own. You won't see immediate negative effects but you'll cause premature part wear and tear.

Newb question, but could you do a short vid on how to use the VCDS?

@thenotsonicecanuck 8 ай бұрын

Yea for sure I can do that. You just want to see how to go about resetting the oil service interval after completing it?

Have you had any issues with your Q5 TDI?I just purchased 2014 with 84k miles

@thenotsonicecanuck 2 ай бұрын

Knock on wood, but no. It’s now at 175000 miles for us and never had a problem. I’ve just kept up with the regular maintenance intervals, doing the recommended services, and that’s it.

why did the fuel filter need to be replaced?

@thenotsonicecanuck 9 ай бұрын

Just was at it's service interval. The fuel filter on the Q5 TDI's is due to be replaced every 20,000 miles, or basically every other oil change.

@jekutube9 8 ай бұрын

oh, ohh: I'm 100K miles behind!@@thenotsonicecanuck

@@jekutube9 sounds like it a bit overdue but if it's still running fine, that's at least a positive. If you're ever wondering what service needs to be done on your Audi (2010 and newer cars only) for any mileage range, they have an awesome tool on their website that tells you what's due at every 10k mile interval. Here's the link - maintenance.audiusa.com/#/search. just type in your VIN or put the model info in with the mileage and it'll tell you everything that should be replaced or checked for each service.

thanks, for the info, another option for people is to use an oil extractor (there is a tube near oil filter front of engine) that is the way the dealer does it.@@thenotsonicecanuck
