Brake System - ABS: Other Audi A6 C5 facelift

Notes for repair work on the ABS

Note. Before carrying out repairs to the ABS, determine the cause of the malfunction using On Board Diagnostic (OBD). Always check control module coding when installing a new hydraulic control unit. See ON BOARD DIAGNOSTIC (OBD) . Always switch ignition off before carrying out installation or repair work. If the vehicle is equipped with a coded radio, obtain the security code before disconnecting the ground strap from the battery. See BATTERY DISCONNECT PRECAUTIONS . When working with brake fluid, observe relevant safety precautions and notes. After finishing any work that requires opening the brake hydraulic system, bleed the brake system (for example, using VAS 5234). During final road test, at least one ABS-controlled braking operation must be performed (appropriate pulsations must be felt at brake pedal). Absolute cleanliness is required when working on the antilock brake system. Do not use any products which contain mineral oil, such as oils, greases etc. Thoroughly clean all unions and the adjacent areas before loosening. Do not use aggressive cleaning agents such as brake cleaner, fuel, thinners or similar chemicals. Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover. Carefully cover over opened components or seals, if repairs are not carried out immediately (use sealing plugs from repair kit 1 H0 698 311 A). Use lint-free cloths only! Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation. Only use parts in their original packaging. Do not work with compressed air and do not move vehicle while the system is open. Make sure that brake fluid does not enter harness connectors. When painting vehicle, electronic control unit can be exposed to a maximum temperature of 95°C (203°F) only briefly, and to a maximum of 85°C (185°F) for longer periods (approx. 2 hours). Before carrying out welding work with an electric welder observe all relevant notes and safety precautions

Before beginning

Check brake system (master cylinder, brake hoses, brake lines and brake calipers) for function and proper sealing (must be free of leaks).

Scheme 447

1. Remove bleeder screw at one front brake caliper. Connect VAG1310 or VAG1310a brake pressure gauge and bleed.
2. Insert brake pedal depressor between brake pedal and driver's seat. Apply pressure to brake pedal until gauge indicates positive pressure of 50 bar (725 psi). Pressure must not drop by more than 4 bar (58 psi) during test period of 45 seconds. If drop in pressure exceeds specification: replace hydraulic control unit.

New components

The electronic stabilization program hydraulic pump for traction control -V156- and the sender 1 for brake booster -G201- are on the left side of the engine compartment beneath the ABS hydraulic unit -N55-.

The ABS hydraulic unit -N55- with ABS return flow pump -V39- are assisted by the Hydraulic pump for traction control -V156-. This enables the system to rapidly build up the required brake fluid pressure in the wheel brake cylinders.

Scheme 448

Do not loosen the bolts securing the individual components of the ABS hydraulic unit -N55- and the Hydraulic pump for traction control -V156-. The Hydraulic pump for traction control -V156- and the Sender 1 for brake booster -G201- form a single unit and must always be replaced together if necessary.

The Sender 1 for brake booster -G201- measures the fluid pressure generated in the brake system.

Parking brake switch

Informs ABS control module (w/EDL) -J104- whether or not the parking brake is applied. This information is required because the parking brake influences the ESP control function.

The ABS solenoid valve relay -J106- and ABS return flow pump relay -J105- are no longer integrated in the ABS hydraulic unit -N55-, as in the Bosch type 5.0 system. They are now located in the relay carrier below the driver's-side storage compartment.
