I'm stuck on trying to pull the fuel rail off doesn't seem to want to let go of the injectors so it's coming off but with injectors still inside do you have any tips please
Ive got the same motor in my 2011 VE, and need to replace a coil, so ive decided to change all 6 and sparks aswell, just wondering if you need to remove the manifold in order to replace the coils? Cheers mate!
I am doing this job myself now on a LFW 3.0 SIDI VE Omega........ and mine are totally stuck. 5 hours so far trying with two breaker bars, some carby cleaner. Mine has metal clips holdin in the injectors it looks like yours don't on here....
@@DemopVWgarage So did you somehow take the injector clips off before pulling the rail? I can't even see them really... I've got multiple injectors gone bad so.... I think they are just really stuck.
@@nedkelly9688 I worked out the clips are on the electrical side I think so it doesn't stop it coming up. I managed to get one rail up (injectors all came up with it)...... but I can't get it out, as I need to get the passenger side up first..... (wish I'd started with that). Took like 6 hours with many things to get up the first side.... the carbon is real bad on these so....
Wow though I Waa gunna be able to do my own injectors. Well guess not. I've got a misfire on n03 and it's running rich as I always have black exhaust debris on my tail gate I've already changed the spark plugs without removing the top. Good job mate 👍
@Demop_VW_garage Yes you are right it is easy I got it done in a day and a half the only thing hard was because mine is a crappy alloytec and I had to fight to get the first rail out because it keeped catching on the water neck so I used a big crow bar without damaging it I reefed it out and from there all good. This video of yours really helped so thanks for that 👍 there was no pull or push back on the rails the had to come straight up
Thank you for taking the time to produce this.
I’m halfway through tackling this myself. Your video is priceless.
Glad I could help out :)
this video makes a wonderful case for trying "injector cleaner " first....
great job
hahaha yes indeed, not the best job out there ;)
Hey mate great video thanks for the details I'm a proud V6 Commo ve 2..jack👍
Yew, rock on 😎👊🏽
Awesome video mate Holden charging $2500 to replace mine so really helpful is replacing the spark plugs a must?
If they aren’t fowled keep using them 😉👍🏽

Its not too hard, just time hay ;)

No you can get them all out without taking it off. On the drivers side you just need to take off the side bracket 👍🏽👍🏽
@@DemopVWgarage legend! Thanks for the help!
A lot of work.
I think I'll be sticking to my bug for now. 😋
wait till the next video on it, mega pull down of the motor ;)
Zipties and intake valve cleaner. So I've heard
😂😂😂
@Demop_VW_garage no joke. In a drill let it flop about without damaging anything. I'm yet to take the manifold off my lfx.

There is clips on this motor too, it was a crap job thats for sure.

@@MrHC1983 Haha doing the same on my 2011 VE series 2 ute LLT engine and was thinking he had no clips as are no videos on anyone removing the clips.

@@MrHC1983 Yea i got drivers side out easy and the clips just came off. but passenger side they have nowhere to go.

Take your time its not that hard👍🏽😉

I use injector/fuel system cleaner additive every 1000km.
Hey, good Job-is it not necessary to write new Injector codes in the ECU 😂
If you care about emissions 😉 A good scan tool like the Vident i400AU OBD will do it easy ;)
Sounds like cam shaft sensor actuator playing up??
You are so right, just got the code p2097-00 yesterday and ordered a new crank sensor, its been sounding funny on start up for a while.
Is this the same engine as a 2010 camaro LLT 3.6 V6 engine?
Not sure, but probably yes at part from some outside parts I’m guessing
yep
How much were the new injectors?
I have seen there are cheap ones available for the LLT on eBay for $150 aud for 6 and hoping they will do the trick.
$500, they are holden ones that have been refurbished. The cheap ones will give you problems.
@@DemopVWgarage was that 500 for the lot mate
@@adamt175 yes indeed
Where to get refurbished Injectors from mate ?
Cheers in advance
