Charge pressure bypass valve, checking


Note:

The charge pressure bypass valve is located in
front of the turbocharger. It is opened by
vacuum during deceleration and when under
partial load at idle. This reduces charge air
pressure in front of the throttle valve and keeps
the turbocharger spinning at higher RPMs.
Check the charge pressure bypass valve if
experiencing reduced performance or turbo lag.

Special tools and equipment
VAG1390 hand vacuum pump

If valve does not open/close or valve plate does not seal correctly when
valve is closed: - Connect VAG1390 hand vacuum pump to vacuum connection on
recirculation valve.
- Operate hand vacuum pump.
Recirculation valve must open (arrow).
- After approx. 30 seconds, operate vent valve on hand vacuum pump.
Recirculation valve must close (arrow).

Turbocharger and wastegate, checking

If special testing equipment is required during
test drive, heed the following WARNING:

WARNING!

When driving or riding in an airbag-equipped
vehicle, NEVER hold the scan tool or other
test equipment in your hands or lap while in
motion. Objects between you and the airbag
increase the risk of injury in an accident.
During a test drive in an airbag-equipped
vehicle, test equipment must always be
fastened to and operated from the rear seat
by a second technician.

Note:
WARNING! - Turn turbocharger tester on and select measuring range -I- (absolute
pressure).
- Connect test hose to connection flange -I-.
Hoses must be connected so there is no possibility of leaks, otherwise
incorrect readings may result. Ensure test hose is not pinched at the hood and/or window.By pressing the memory button "M" on the turbocharger tester, the last
test value is stored until either memory button "M" is pressed again or
the turbocharger tester is shut off. A blinking comma in the display field indicates a value has been
stored. An arrow appears in the top left corner of the display field if the
turbocharger tester battery voltage drops below the allowed
specification. Before testing, drive vehicle briskly for at least 3 km (approx. 2 miles)
without frequent stops. Always use a second technician to take measurements via the
VAG1397A turbocharger tester when test-driving vehicle for this
test. Follow "WARNING!" Page 21
