Hey everyone I'm replacing my rcv solenoid on my 13 Jetta TDI tomorrow and wanted to know is there anything I need to know? I have done this job on a 09 rabbit 2.5 it was pretty easy. Is it as simple as evacuating the AC system unplugging the solenoid removing the snap ring pulling it out and then reinstalling and recharging? Or is it any more involved?
I think I ordered the correct part however online is a little confusing. Anyway to verify what the part number is?

Having 45 degree snapring pliers is a big help. A good pair from Knipex will save you from lots of frustration.

Seems to be some confusion on what's the correct part number. Hopefully I ordered the right part 🤷 I've read some models the fans have to come out. Can anyone confirm if that's the case on my mk6 Jetta TDI or if it's just a single part removal
