Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility Verification:
Before purchasing, it is *crucial* to verify fitment. Ensure your vehicle's specifications precisely match the listed compatibility: Make: Vw, Model: Bora, Year: 2004-2005, Type: Estate, Variant: 1.9 TDI, Engine: 66KW 90HP.
Additionally, check the critical measurements: Inner Diameter [mm]: 7.7, Outer Diameter [mm]: 13, Thickness [mm]: 2.5. Compare these with your existing seals or the specifications for your injector nozzles.
Installation:
- Ensure the engine is cool.
- Carefully remove the injector nozzle according to the vehicle's service manual.
- Clean the injector nozzle seating area and the cylinder head bore thoroughly.
- Remove the old seal ring from the injector nozzle.
- Lubricate the new seal ring *lightly* with a compatible, clean lubricant if recommended by the service manual (avoid over-lubrication).
- Install the new BERU Seal Ring onto the injector nozzle, ensuring it is seated correctly and not twisted.
- Reinstall the injector nozzle into the cylinder head, torquing to the manufacturer's specifications.
Care:
These seal rings are a one-time use component. They are not designed for cleaning and re-use. Handle with clean hands or tools to prevent contamination. Store unused rings in their original packaging in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
