    Careful with the torques. There are different figures quoted. A common one is 2nm, 8nm, +270deg, which is obviously a heck of a lot more than your 7nm, +180 deg. Check how tight it feels when you open it and use whichever sequence seems to best suit the way it was. I undid mine with a 1/4” ratchet, so it can’t have been stupidly tight. This sounds much more reasonable than the more common figure, which I’m sure would have shorn off my 1/4” square drive I noticed you didn’t clean the seat. I suspect that’s why they leak and get stuck. People don’t clean them properly, or at all, and expect the new copper seal to make up for any imperfections that may have occurred during removal. I’ll be cleaning mine, before I fit the new injector. I’m not certain, but I think a code reader that’s compatible with VAGCOM will be able to code the new injector. Any imbalance between the cylinders will apparently accelerate the wear on the dmf, so best to have that right.

    • @FredmChoice

      Increased crank case pressure...pushes loads of oil back into the manifold and throttle body. Oil catch can does exactly what it says: catches the oil from the crankcase and only allows air to travel back into the manifold. Carefully remove the rubber pipe from infront of the throttle body and clean the black soot with carburettor cleaner(spray same on a towel) I have elite engineering catch can on my LS3 and works a treat

    Most helpful videos about the Lancer. I got my Ralliart in really great maintained condition, and hopefully, the dual-clutch is not going to be problematic, especially because the last owner had 3 transmission oil changes in 80k. Basically, they also changed the oil every 7000 km. I changed all the fluids, and there was zero metal on the magnetic drain plug. It looked really good.
