Installing high-pressure lines
Consult the equivalence table for tools and equipment according to applicability among Seat / VW / Audi / Skoda → Chapter.
   
Special tools and workshop equipment required
t  Socket wrench insert -T40055-, see equivalent → Anchor
t  Torque wrench -VAG 1331-, see equivalent → Anchor.
t  Ratchet 1/2' x 9-12 -VAG 1331/1-, see equivalent → Anchor
t  Torque wrench insert -VAG 1331/6-, see equivalent → Anchor

  Caution
Release rail and clamping pieces to easily fit injection lines tension-free. If necessary, shift rail slightly and turn relevant injector slightly if required. The lines must never be bent or tensioned. Tension would otherwise cause the respective line to break in the long-term.
Procedure
  Note
This section describes how to install new injection lines. If you wish to re-use existing injection lines, you must check the points listed under → Item. Apart from that the procedure is identical.
–  If it has not been done yet, loosen securing bolts of fuel rail and ensure that fuel rail can be moved.
–  If it has not been done yet, loosen securing bolts of clamping pieces and ensure that injectors can be rotated.
–  Remove the new high-pressure line from the packaging. Remove the sealing plugs and install the line between the high-pressure pump and the rail without placing it down again.
–  Initially hand-tighten high-pressure line union nuts „fully“ on high-pressure pump without tools.
–  Ensure that line is inserted correctly into seat.
–  Remove the new injection lines from the packaging. Remove the sealing plugs and install the line just by itself.
–  Initially hand-tighten injection line union nuts „fully“ without tools.
–  If necessary, proceed in the same way with other injection lines.
   
–  Use socket -T40055- to tighten all components in the specified sequence → Anchor.

–  To tighten the high-pressure lines, use the torque wrench -VAG 1331- with torque wrench insert -VAG 1331/6-.
–  Check fuel system for leaks → Chapter.
