Cylinder numbers

[peter goble]

Can anyone advise how the cylinders are numbered on 2.7 tdi V6 (2007)?
glow plugs on 5 & 6 need replacing.

Sitting in the car looking forwards, the right bank (bank 1) starts at the front of the car going rearwards so 1, 2, 3; the left bank (bank 2) starts at the cars front as 4, so 4, 5, 6. Take great care when taking those out, they love snapping… on one we did we took EVERY precaution and went really slow but still all six snapped.
