. The DTC
memory must be clear. If necessary, repair any
malfunctions and erase the DTC memory.
Switch off the engine, then start up again. Take
vehicle for a test drive and check DTC memory
again to make sure it is clear.

- Run engine at idle speed.

CAUTION!

The electric radiator fan should not be
running. Rapid data transfer

When the engine is idling the engine control
module tries constantly to adjust the actual
engine speed so that it matches the specified
value.
This means that the actual engine speed when
idling should always be approximately the same
as the specified engine speed.
Display fields 3 and 4 provide additional
information which is not relevant when checking
the idle speed.

If the idle speed is too high or too low, or if
the engine does not idle smoothly, and there
are no malfunctions stored in the DTC
memory, carry out the following tests
(marked with dots):

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.

- If pressure is higher than specification, check
return pipe for damage (e.g. pinching) and
renew if necessary.

Note:
During the following test, do not allow the engine
to run for too long with the vacuum hose
disconnected, otherwise the increased fuel
pressure will enrich the air/fuel mixture and may
cause the lambda control limits to be exceeded.
This would be stored as a fault in the fault
memory.

- Start the engine and run at idling speed.

- Switch off electrical consumers (air conditioner
etc.).

- Re-connect vacuum hose to fuel pressure
regulator and observe drop in pressure on
pressure gauge.
