Safety precautions
To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following
| CAUTION | Fuel system is under high pressure! Before opening high pressure components of the fuel injection system, pressure must be relieved to residual pressure --> Procedure that must be performed before opening the high-pressure fuel injection system. Pay close attention! . Then wrap a clean rag around the connection and relieve residual pressure by carefully loosening the connection. |
- The ignition must be switched off before connecting or disconnecting injection and ignition system wiring or tester cables.
- It is possible that the control module will recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during some tests. Therefore, when all tests and repairs are completed, the DTC memory must be checked and, if necessary, erased. After DTC memory is erased, a readiness code must be generated for the engine control module using operating mode "Guided Fault-Finding".
- Clean engine only with the ignition switched off.
| CAUTION | The battery must only be disconnected and connected with the ignition switched off, since the Engine Control Module (ECM) can otherwise be damaged. Observe safety precautions when disconnecting the battery --> 27 BATTERY, STARTER, GENERATOR, CRUISE CONTROL 27 BATTERY, STARTER, GENERATOR, CRUISE CONTROL for ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, CABRIOLET . |
Observe the following if test and measuring instruments are required during a test drive
| CAUTION | Test and measuring equipment must always be secured to the rear seat and be operated from there by a second person. If test and measuring instruments are operated from the front passengers seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered. |
Rules of cleanliness for performing work on fuel injection system
Even minor contaminations can lead to malfunctions in the fuel injection system. Therefore when working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following rules of cleanliness
- Before loosening, connections and surrounding areas must be cleaned thoroughly with engine or brake cleaner, and then cleaned area must be dried completely.
- Plug open lines and connections immediately with appropriate protective caps.
- Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover them. Do not use fluffy cloths!
- Only install clean components: Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation. Do not use parts that have been stored unpackaged (e.g. in tool boxes etc.).
- When the system is open: Do not work with compressed air. Do not move vehicle unless absolutely necessary.
Procedure that must be performed before opening the high-pressure fuel injection system. Pay close attention!
- The fuel injection system is separated into a high-pressure section (max. approx. 110 bar) and a low-pressure section (approx. 6 bar).
- Before opening the high-pressure section - e.g. removing high-pressure pump, fuel rail, fuel injectors, the motor for intake manifold runner control valve or any other component or fuel line that is located in the high-pressure section of the fuel injection system - the fuel pressure in the high-pressure section must be relieved to a residual pressure of approx. 8 bar. The procedure for this is as follows.

Ignition system, general information
- For trouble-free operation of the electrical components a voltage of at least 12.5 V is necessary.
- It is possible that the control module will recognize a malfunction and store a DTC during some tests. Therefore after completing all checks and repairs the DTC memory must be checked and if necessary erased.
- If the engine only starts briefly and then turns off again after troubleshooting, repair or checking of the components, it may be that the immobilizer is blocking the Engine Control Module (ECM). DTC memory must then be checked and if necessary, control module must be adapted.
If special testing equipment is required during road test, note the following
| CAUTION | Test and measuring equipment must always be secured to the rear seat and be operated from there by a second person. If test and measuring instruments are operated from the front passengers seat and the vehicle is involved in an accident, there is a possibility that the person sitting in this seat may receive serious injuries when the airbag is triggered. Do not touch or disconnect wires of ignition system when engine is running or turning at starting RPM. Always switch ignition off before disconnecting or reconnecting wires for the injection and ignition system, including high voltage wiring and test leads. |
| CAUTION | To reduce the risk of damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following: If the engine is to be cranked at starting RPM without starting (e.g. during compression test), disconnect electrical connectors on ignition coils and on fuel injectors. After performing work, check and erase DTC memory. Clean engine only with the ignition switched off. The battery must only be disconnected and connected with the ignition switched off, since the Engine Control Module (ECM) can otherwise be damaged. Observe safety precautions when disconnecting the battery --> 27 BATTERY, STARTER, GENERATOR, CRUISE CONTROL 27 BATTERY, STARTER, GENERATOR, CRUISE CONTROL for ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, CABRIOLET . |
