I'm coming close to my 20k and have the filter. I haven't read much about it other than using VCDS to prime the pump after replacement. I have access to using one but I have no experience with it and my uncle who owns it does but nothing TDI or MK7.
I'm not new to working on things, but new to diesels. Is it acceptable to get a gallon of diesel and presoak the filter prior to installing it and cranking until it starts (assuming this isn't best practice)?
I'm not against going to dealer to have this done but I do all my own work and it's more of the trust factor. I have two lifts in my garage and have done all sorts of projects over the years.
Thanks for any advice.
