II - INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED PRIOR TO ALL OPERATIONS
Check that you have plugs for the unions to be opened (set of plugs available from the Parts Department). The plugs
are single-use only. After use, they must be discarded (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to
make them reusable). Unused plugs must be discarded.
Check that you have hermetically resealable plastic bags for storing removed parts. Parts stored in this way will be
less susceptible to the risk of contamination. The bags are to be used once only, and discarded after use.
Use lint-free cleaning cloths (cloth part reference 77 11 211 707). Using normal cloth or paper is prohibited. They are
not lint-free and could contaminate the fuel circuit. A lint-free cloth should only be used once.
Use fresh cleaning agent for each operation (used cleaning agent is contaminated). Pour it into a clean receptacle.
For each operation, use a clean brush in good condition (the brush must not shed its bristles).
Use a brush and cleaning agent to clean the unions to be opened.
Blow compressed air over the cleaned parts (tools, workbench, the parts, unions and injection system zones).
Check that no bristles are left.
Wash your hands before and during the operation if necessary.
When wearing leather protective gloves cover them with latex gloves to prevent contamination. IMPORTANT:
Before carrying out any work on the high pressure injection system, protect:
– the accessories and timing belts,
– the electrical accessories, (starter, alternator, electric power-assisted steering pump),
– the flywheel surface, to prevent any diesel from running onto the clutch friction plate,
– timing chain.

System outline
The high pressure injection system is designed to deliver a precise quantity of diesel fuel to the engine at a set
moment.
It is fitted with a BOSCH computer, type EDC16CP33.
The system comprises:
– a priming bulb,
– a diesel filter,
– a high pressure pump,
– a fuel pressure regulator (or actuator) on the high pressure pump (MPROP),
– a fuel pressure regulator (or actuator) mounted on the injector rail (DRV),
– an injector rail,
– a fuel pressure sensor,
– four piezoelectric injectors,
– a diesel temperature sensor,
– a coolant temperature sensor,
– an upstream air temperature sensor,
– a cylinder reference sensor,
– an engine speed sensor,
– a turbocharger pressure sensor,
– an exhaust gas recirculation valve,
– a recycled gas cooling solenoid valve,
– an accelerator pedal potentiometer,
– an atmospheric pressure sensor integrated into the injection computer,
– a flow sensor,
– a turbocharging limiter solenoid valve,
– a damper valve,
– a particle filter,
– a turbo upstream temperature sensor,
– a turbo upstream pressure sensor,
– a particle filter differential pressure sensor,
– a particle filter upstream temperature sensor,
– a particle filter downstream temperature sensor,
– an electric coolant pump (turbocharger),
– four thermoplungers.
The common rail direct high pressure injection system works sequentially (based on the petrol engine
multipoint injection).
This system uses piezoelectric injectors which enable a more precise injection since opening and closing times
are shorter compared to conventional solenoid injectors.
This injection system reduces operating noise, reduces the volume of pollutant gases and particles and produces
high engine torque at low engine speeds thanks to a pre-injection procedure.
The high pressure pump generates the high pressure and transmits it to the injector rail. The actuator located on
the pump controls the quantity of diesel supplied, according to the demand determined by the computer.
The rail supplies each injector through a steel pipe. The actuator located on the injector rail controls the pressure
of diesel fuel in the rail according to the demand determined by the computer.

a. The computer:
Determines the injection pressure value necessary for the correct operation of the engine; the pressure can reach
1600 bar in the rail and it must be constantly regulated.
Checks that the pressure value is correct by analysing the value transmitted by the pressure sensor located on
the rail.
Determines the injection duration required to deliver the right quantity of diesel fuel and the moment when injection
should start. Controls each injector electrically and individually after determining these two values.
The quantity of fuel injected is determined by:
– Engine speed (Crankshaft + Cam for synchronisation).
– Accelerator pedal.
– Turbocharging pressure.
– Coolant temperature,
– Inlet air temperature.
–Air flow
– Pressure in the rail.
– Vehicle speed.
The computer manages:
– idling regulation,
– exhaust gas flow reinjection to the inlet,
– fuel supply check (advance, flow and rail pressure),
– the fan assembly control,
– the air conditioning (cold loop function),
– cruise control/speed limiter function,
– pre-post heating control,
– indicator lights control via the multiplex network,
– the operation of the catalysed particle filter,
– turbocharging pressure.
The high pressure pump is supplied at low pressure by an integrated low pressure pump (transfer pump).
It supplies the rail, the pressure in which is regulated by:
–the pressure regulator on the rail (DRV) for starting phases, starting the engine when cold (increase in
temperature to heat the diesel circuit) and when throttling-off,
–the pressure regulator on the pump (MPROP) for all other phases (90% of cases).
As natural leaks in piezoelectric injectors are very low, opening the pressure regulator (DRV) is the only quick
method of dumping the rail pressure and it prevents overpressure when injection is restarted.
The pressure regulator on the pump (MPROP) enables the high pressure pump to supply just the exact quantity
of diesel fuel required to maintain the rail pressure. This component minimises the heat generated and improves
engine output.
Note:
Each piezoelectric injector is connected to the return rail. The injector return rail is kept pressurised by a
mechanical valve at the end of the return rail with a 10 bar calibration (by comparison, solenoid injectors used to
return directly into the common fuel return circuit). This feature is linked to the operation of piezoelectric injectors.

Fuel surplus from the pump, injector return rail or rail is collected in a low pressure "octopus manifold" and is then
sent to the fuel filter, providing that the fuel is cold (recirculation), and then to the tank.
The system can inject diesel fuel into the engine at a pressure of up to 1600 bar. Before each operation, check that
the injector rail is depressurised and that the fuel temperature is not too high.
You must respect the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice specified in this document for any work on the high
pressure injection system.
Removal of the internal parts of the pump and injectors is prohibited. Only the fuel pressure regulator (or actuator)
on the high pressure pump (MPROP), the fuel pressure regulator (or actuator) on the injector rail (DRV) or the diesel
temperature sensor can be replaced.
For safety reasons, it is strictly prohibited to undo a high pressure pipe union when the engine is running.
It is not possible to remove the pressure sensor from the fuel rail because this may cause circuit contamination
faults. If the pressure sensor fails, replace the pressure sensor, the rail and the high pressure pipes.
Some vehicles have a presence sensor mounted in the filter for detecting water in the diesel. If there is water in
the diesel fuel, the orange "Injection and pre-post heating" warning light will come on.
Supplying + 12 V directly to any component in the system is prohibited.
Ultrasonic decoking and cleaning are prohibited.
Never start the engine unless the battery is connected correctly.
Disconnect the injection computer when carrying out any welding work on the vehicle.
b. The connections between the vehicle's various computers are multiplexed.
The electronic system fitted in this vehicle is multiplexed.
This enables dialogue between the various vehicle computers. As a result:
– the fault warning lights on the instrument panel are lit by the multiplex network,
– vehicle faults are displayed by the multiplex network,
– the vehicle speed sensor on the gearbox is not needed.
The vehicle speed signal on the instrument panel is sent by the ABS computer via the multiplex network. The vehicle
speed signal is mainly used by the injection computer, the airbag computer and the automatic transmission
computer (if the vehicle is fitted with this).WARNING:
The engine must not operate with:
– Diesel fuel containing more than 10% diester,
– petrol, even in tiny quantities.
Note:
For the M9R 724 (Vdiag 5C and 58):
The engine is limited to 3000 rpm if the vehicle is stationary or if the vehicle speed is less than 4 mph (7 km/h)
and if the engine is warm.
