Short answer: yes, the 03L130277S injector is interchangeable with the 03L130277B. They are two successive revisions of the same Volkswagen part for the 1.6 TDI Common Rail engine (Continental / Siemens VDO). A new 03L130277B directly replaces a 03L130277S, with no modification.
Why two part numbers for the same injector?
At Volkswagen, the last letter of a part number (B, C, S, SX, SV…) indicates a revision of the part over the course of production. The body, fitting and connection remain identical: the manufacturer simply updates the suffix. That is why 1.6 TDI engines from 2009 to 2015 have injectors marked 03L130277B, 03L130277S or 03L130277C, which all replace one another.
Equivalent part numbers
| Type of part number | Numbers |
|---|---|
| Volkswagen (VAG) | 03L130277B, 03L130277S, 03L130277C, 03L130277SX, 03L130277SV |
| Continental / Siemens VDO | A2C59513554, A2C9626040080, 5WS40539, 5WS10001 |
If one of these part numbers is engraved on your old injector, our new 1.6 TDI Continental 03L130277B injector will fit.

100% new part (not reconditioned), supplied with a new copper washer, invoice and 12-month warranty. No core charge: you keep your old injector, nothing to send back. Tracked delivery included.
Before fitting
The IIC code engraved on the head of the new injector must be stored in the engine control unit using a diagnostic tool (VCDS, VAG-COM, ODIS). Without this coding, the engine will not run correctly. The copper washer must be replaced every time the injector is removed. Professional fitting recommended.
