Frequently asked questions about Volkswagen inlet manifold gasket replacement & repairs
Read our answers to questions about inlet manifold gasket replacement costs, symptoms and more.
What does an inlet manifold gasket replacement on my Volkswagen involve?

- Mechanic will clean the air inlet ports of the engine of dirt (like carbon).
- If necessary, the mechanic will replace the inlet manifold gasket.
- Mechanic will advise if other part need to be replaced.
- Mechanic will again inspect the unit and test drive the car.
What are the symptoms of a bad Volkswagen intake manifold?
- When the 'Check Engine' light is on.
- When the engine runs at a higher temperature than usual (overheating).
- When there is fluid underneath the car under the engine.
- When coolant fluid is visible around the inlet manifold.
- When the engine does not run as smooth as usual.
How long does it take to replace the intake manifold gasket on my Volkswagen?
An inlet manifold gasket replacement typically takes around 1.5 hours, but can take less or more time. Ultimately, the time that the job will take depends on a range of factors. For example, your vehicle's make and model, year, as well as other factors. Select your car at the top of this page for information on job time and cost for your vehicle through ClickMechanic.
How often should I replace my Volkswagen inlet manifold gasket?
Due to the extreme temperature fluctuations inside the engine (during the combustion cycles the engine cools and heats continuously) the inlet manifold gasket is especially prone to wear and should always be replaced as and when stipulated in the guidelines set out by your car's manufacturer.
It is important to ensure that the gasket is in a good condition as a damaged gasket can cause engine coolant to leak out, risking overheating of the engine. Therefore, should you experience problems with the gasket, then it is important to have the manifold's gasket inspected and, if necessary, have it replaced.
