The maximum permissible reworking dimension is calculated as follows:
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2005 Volkswagen GTI, 2004 Volkswagen Jetta, 2004 Volkswagen GTI, 2003 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2003 Volkswagen GTI. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE:
- If the valve is to be replaced as part of a repair, use a new valve for the measuring.
- Measure distance - a - between end of valve stem and upper edge of cylinder head.
- Calculate max. permissible reworking dimension from measured distance - a - and minimum dimension.
