I'm confident I've traced my oil leak to the valve cover gasket and have ordered a new one to replace it myself.
I've replaced them on gasoline vehicles before, but I'm concerned about removing the fuel injectors. This leads to my main question: does the fuel system need to be de-pressurized first?
My second question is if a VCDS is necessary to prime the system or if you can turn the ignition on and off a few times to activate the pump.
Nothing I've read suggests the fuel system needs to be de-pressurized, but it seems like you'd have to. I understand the high pressure can be very dangerous and don't want to do something stupid.
