2 Carefully reinstall the fuel rail and injector assembly.

Ensure the fuel injectors are correctly seated
in the lower intake manifold, and the fuel rail
attaching brackets are correctly located prior
to tightening the attaching bolts.
3 Reinstall the fuel rail attaching bolts and tighten to the correct torque specification. Fuel rail attaching bolt
torque specification ..................................8.0 – 12.0 Nm
4 Reconnect the fuel feed hose to the fuel rail, refer to 6C Fuel System - V6.

2.14 Heated Oxygen Sensor

To avoid the possibility of personal injury,
allow the exhaust pipe to cool to ambient
temperature (less than 50 °
°°
°
C) before
attempting to remove the oxygen sensor.
Service Precautions
• Handle the HO2S carefully. Do not drop it, and keep it free of grease, dirt and other contaminants. Do not use
cleaning solvents of any type on the HO2S.
• Do not repair the HO2S or any of its parts. Replace the HO2S if any damage is evident.
• The HO2S may be difficult to remove when the engine is cold. Excessive force may damage the threads in the
exhaust manifold or exhaust pipe.

Reinstall
Reinstallation of the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) is the reverse of the removal procedure, noting the following:
1 Ensure the protective cover (1) is securely in place, and the gortex filter (2) has not been covered or
sealed.
Figure 6C1-3 – 45

A special anti-seize compound is used on the
HO2S threads. A new HO2S will already have
the anti-seize compound applied to the
threads.
If a HO2S has been removed, but not replaced,
an anti-seize compound must be applied to
the threads prior to installation.
2 Coat the cleaned threads of the HO2S with anti-seize compound.
3 Tighten the HO2S to the correct torque specification.
Heated oxygen sensor
torque specification .................................40.0 – 50.0 Nm
4 Road test the vehicle and check for correct operation, taking particular note that no exhaust leakage is evident.

Test

Under no circumstances should battery
voltage be applied to the heated oxygen
sensor (HO2S) heater.

To prevent component damage use connector
test adaptor kit J 35616-A.
Heater Resistance Check – Six Wire HO2S
1 Connect a digital ohmmeter using connector test adaptor kit J 35616-A to the HO2S.
2 Measure the resistance across terminals 3 and 4.
3 Compare the reading against the specification.
HO2S heater resistance @ 20°C ................ 8.0 – 10.0 Ω
4 If the resistance is not within specification, replace the
HO2S.

Disassemble

Do not use a sharp implement such as a knife
to cut the ignition coil boot (1) from the
ignition coil. Using a sharp implement may
damage the ignition coil insulator (2).
1 Using your thumb, work the ignition coil boot off the ignition coil insulator.
NOTE
Take care the spring (3) does not become
dislodged as the boot is removed.
To aid removal of the boot, use a blunt
instrument to lift the boot edge away from the
coil insulator and spray a release agent between
the boot and the coil insulator.
2 Remove the spring from the ignition coil insulator.
Figure 6C1-3 – 51
Reassemble
1 Position the spring (3) in the insulator recess, refer to Figure 6C1-3 – 51.
2 Lubricate the ignition coil insulator (1) with talcum powder.
3 Fit the ignition coil boot, ensuring it is fully seated at the top of the insulator.
Figure 6C1-3 – 52
Test

Never probe the ignition coil with a 12 V tester
as the ignition coil will be damaged.
Due to the internal components of the ignition coil assembly, it is not possible to perform any primary and / or secondary
resistance checks. For further information on the ignition coil operation, refer to 6C1-1 Engine Management – V6 –
General Information.

Ensure the air intake duct sealing rubber is
correctly positioned on the throttle body.
Failure to do this may result in engine
damage due to unfiltered air entering the
engine intake system.
1 Reinstall the air intake duct and tighten the retaining clamps to the correct torque specification. Air intake duct retaining clamp
torque specification .....................................1.8 – 2.2 Nm
2 Road test the vehicle and check for correct operation, taking particular note that no air leaks are evident.
2.17 Intake Air Temperature Sensor
The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is part of the mass air flow (MAF) sensor assembly, refer to 2.20 Mass Air
Flow Sensor for the replacement procedure.
Test

To prevent component damage use connector
test adaptor kit J 35616-A.
Resistance Check

Do not use a high temperature heat gun as
damage to the MAF sensor will result.
1 Connect a digital ohmmeter using connector test adaptor kit J 35616-A to the MAF sensor.
2 W hilst holding a thermometer (3), use a commercially available hair dryer (4) to blow warm air through the
