Fire hazard! Do not smoke, work near 
heaters or open flame, or have anything 
nearby that could ignite fuel. The fuel system 
is pressurized. Before loosening hose 
connections or opening the test connection 
(to measure fuel pressure), place a cloth 
around the connection. Then release 
pressure by carefully opening the 
connection.

Test conditions  
     
No leaks in exhaust system 
     Coolant temperature at least 80 C 
     
Electrical consumers switched off (radiator 
fan must not run during the check) 
     A/C switched off 
     Pressure gauge not connected 
     Selector lever in position P or N (vehicles 
with automatic transmission) 
     
Checking idle speed  
     
Notes:  
     The idle speed cannot be adjusted.
     The idle speed is tested during the basic setting 
of the engine.

Fuel pressure regulator and residual 
fuel pressure, checking
 
     
Requirements  
     
Fuel pump relay OK 
     Fuel pump OK 
     Fuel filter OK 
     Battery voltage at least 11 V 
     
Note:  
     The fuel pressure regulator regulates the fuel 
pressure according to intake manifold pressure. 
This ensures that the drop in pressure at the 
injectors remains the same throughout all engine 
speed and engine load ranges. 
     
WARNING! 
     
Fire hazard! The fuel system is pressurized. 
Before loosening hose connections or 
opening the test connection (to measure fuel 
pressure), place a cloth around the 
connection. Then release pressure by 
carefully pulling off the hose or cap.

Testing system pressure  
    
Note:  
If fuel flows out at the vacuum connection on the fuel pressure regulator 
during the following pressure test, fit a new fuel pressure regulator.  -  Connect pressure gauge VAG 1318 to supply pipe using adapters 
1318/7, 1318/8 (pressure hose) and 1318/15. 
-  Disconnect vacuum hose between fuel pressure regulator and intake 
manifold at fuel pressure regulator end; seal off end of hose. 
-  Start engine and run at idling speed.
- Measure fuel pressure. 
   Specified value: approx. 3.8...4.2 bar
-  If fuel pressure does not match specification, install a new fuel 
pressure regulator for test purposes and repeat pressure test. 
-  If fuel pressure still does not match specification, check fuel pump and 
supply pipe for damage (e.g. pinching) and replace if necessary.
