Work sequence

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2002 Volkswagen Jetta, 2002 Volkswagen GTI, 2001 Volkswagen Jetta, 2001 Volkswagen GTI, and 2000 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
  • When repairing engines with leaking valves it is not sufficient to just work on or replace valve seats and valves. With longtime engines in particular it is necessary to check valve guides for wear.
  • Only rework valve seats until a correct contact pattern is achieved. Before reworking valve seats calculate the allowable reworking dimension. If this dimension is exceeded, correct functioning of the hydraulic valve clearance balancing cannot be guaranteed and the cylinder head must be replaced.
