Reviews of OEM Volkswagen intake manifold

I put 2 in my mk6 until VW finally issued a design revision. Symptoms of failure are similar to your description.

I had my 2012 vw gli at 50k miles to 220k miles. Beat the crap out of it. Change oil often also check it. Intake manifolds suck 3rd time with me blasting it. Spark plugs and coils packs suck get better ones.

'22 R Issues so far 1. Intake manifold replaced(flapper solenoid). 2. Infotainment/Park distance, etc. It resolved itself after update. Otherwise been fine.

Had a similar experience with a VW dealership when I had to replace my Intake Manifold a few weeks ago. They quoted me 1800 dollars and said it would take 6 hours. A specialist near me quoted half on time, money, and had the car back to me in two days.

The leak at the actuator pivot is a failure of the manifold, and the new ones are of a different design. The manifolds aren't very expensive, and it isn't a very bad job to replace.

When I bought a new intake manifold for my 13 Eos my indy shop charged a little over $600.00 to do the walnut blasting (with before and after pics) and installing the new intake manifold. My VW dealer wanted over $900 for the carbon service. It's unbelievable the difference in idling and actual power the car has now. The car had around 72,000 miles at the time of service.

Roughly ~98k on 12' GLI, MT At about ~90k the intake runner control broke, causing some misfire codes and funky idle. Intake manifold was replaced by dealer under TSB and they did a walnut blast while they were in there.

my intake manifold was replaced somewhere around 25-30k miles or so. I was told it was a revised part, and I haven't had any problems since. I'm at 45k now.

I had my intake manifold done at 18k miles, now 10k miles later the injectors went and are getting done.

I had a 2009 GTI that I bought new, and had the intake manifold replaced 3 times within 50,000 miles. The first one was replaced at 500 Miles, again at 23,000 and again at 45,000 miles.
