Going to replace DPF, intake manifold, left and right aux cooling fans

[Shar]

Can anyone tell me about how long it takes to replace the DPF and manifold? Also, cost of manifold? This is a 2014 Jetta Sportwagen TDI. Many thanks.

It’s about an 8 hour job for the DPF. That’s what I was quoted.

Says intake manifold in the title, and you can't change the exhaust manifold without also doing the turbo.

Intake manifold I believe

Some places I read 2 hours and others about 4-5 hours.

Yeah a DPF is not getting done in 2 hours. They might be thinking something else.

Yeah I didn’t see it well without my glasses on.
