The easiest option to bleed air is to run engine's built-in diagnostic routine - described in the link below:

[T6_measured] 01-Engine - Built-in test for Transfer fuel pump

A quick DIY way to test fuel lift pump's basic functionality. The test takes advantage of engine's fuel high pressure sensor (in fuel rail). Running the lift pump continuosly makes the pressure eventually "leak" through high pressure pump and can be detected by fuel pressure sensor. As a side...

Unfortunately a proper diagnostic tool is needed for that, e.g. VCDS

Or simply, perhaps just a visit to a garage?

Just changed mine and it was a pig to start, I just kept turning it on the starter and after a couple of minutes it started again (didn't see the above VCDS procedure) but next time I will just pre fill the filter before fitting it.
