This guys 'how to' might get the ball rolling Scopes. It covers a valve clean as well.

Someone might find a better walkthrough somewhere ?

Hope this helps  :happy2:

Looking at doing the same at the moment.  Need to replace the intake flapper motor and may just as well take the whole intake off and clean the back of the valves as well whilst I'm there.

No matey not yet, maybe try the easy way first, and use a scope, try some cleaner and scope again...  :innocent:
As far as i'm aware, it can be a bit risky, with injectors popping out... Something I wouldn't want to happen...means having to send them off for testing and re-sealing...  :rolleye:

A few other things to do first!

 :happy2:

 :laugh:  You might be waiting a while mate my intake flapper fault has vanished after an adaption.

It's only nuts and bolts Scopes, how hard can it be  :evilgrin:

If it comes back I promise I'll whip something up.

The TFSI intake manifolds on the transverse engines are a ball ache.

They fail on the audi a4/a5 but take half the time to remove as there's so much more room!
2005 VW Bora TDI 130 Highline auto. Current mods: 5.5lt washer bottle & black and aluminium A/C knobs & 312mm front brakes and 256mm vented rear brakes.
Next: turborevs SMIC, 20vt pancake pipe and silicone connectors.
