EVAP system, leak detection

Function

The leak detection system recognizes leaks in the complete fuel system, including the fuel tank, EVAP canister and the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80.

On the mechanical side, the leak detection system consists mainly of a vacuum-driven diaphragm pump equipped with a reed contact on the actuation rod of the pump diaphragm. The pump is supplied with vacuum via the engine intake stroke.

1. When leak detection is activated, the diaphragm pump pumps the fuel system up to 20 30 mbar. The pump diaphragm is then moved out so that the reed contact at the operating rod remains in the "open" position.
2. During the leak diagnosis, the reed contact is monitored to check if it remains open within 10 seconds. This indicates the system is sealed.
3. If the pressure falls (indicating a leak), the diaphragm moves back and the reed contact closes.
4. If the reed contact closes within 10 seconds of leak detection time, a further test is performed: In this case the diaphragm pump pumps four times again. The Engine Control Module (ECM) J623 measures the time for each of the four pumps until the reed contact is closed again. From that, the control module can recognize a "small leak" (greater than 1 mm in diameter) or a "large leak".

Leak diagnosis is activated automatically shortly following every engine start. If a malfunction is determined, an entry is made to the Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory. The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) K83 in the instrument cluster lights up if the malfunction is recognized for two subsequent starts.

Evaporative Emission (EVAP) canister system, checking for proper seal

Note. Secure all hose connections using hose clamps appropriate for the model type. Replace seals and gaskets when performing repair work.

Test sequence

1. Connect the scan tool.
2. Start the engine and let run at idle for at least 15 minutes.
3. Select "Diagnostic mode 8: Tank leak test".
4. Select the "Test-ID 01: Tank leak test" and check the specified value at idle.

Specified value: test OK

Note. If the accelerator pedal is depressed during the test, the test will be aborted. To repeat the tank leak-tightness test, switch the ignition off, start the engine again, and let it run at idle.

If the specified value is obtained

1. End diagnosis and switch the ignition off.

If the specified value is not obtained

Checking fuel supply and tank ventilation systems for leaks

1. Ensure the fuel filler cap is properly installed on the fuel tank.
2. Check the fuel filler cap seal for damage. Replace if necessary.
3. Remove the rear seatbench. --> «72 - SEAT - FRAMES»(ref-278922-S17706875992008020700000) «72 - SEAT - FRAMES»(/audi/s4/b8-2008-2011/remont/gauges-instrument-panels/#body-interior-cabriolet) for BODY INTERIOR - CABRIOLET .

1. Remove right locking flange cover - arrows -.
2. Check the seals under the locking flanges are OK and the union nuts are properly tightened on the fuel tank. Also check the fuel line connections.
3. Visually check all hose connections of the fuel supply system and replace any leaking lines, e.g

1. Check the line from the EVAP canister to the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80.
2. Check the lines from the EVAP canister to the Leak Detection Pump (LDP) V144.
3. Check the line from the fuel tank to the EVAP canister (below cover for EVAP canister).
4. Check the lines for the tank ventilation (beneath right rear wheel housing liner).

1. Check the fuel lines to the engine.

Note. Leaks at the lines and components of the fuel tank ventilation system can sometimes be located using a non-flammable, environmentally compliant leak detection spray. Initiate the leak diagnosis several times in sequence to build up pressure in the system. At leaking areas, bubbles will form.

1. Repeat the function test.

If a leak is detected

1. Perform a visual inspection on the fuel system components and tank ventilation system.

1. Fuel tank
2. EVAP canister
3. Leak Detection Pump (LDP) V144
4. Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Canister Purge Regulator Valve N80

Note. Due to the form or function of the components, leaking areas may not always be localized by spraying on the leak detection spray. It may be necessary to clamp off the relevant component using Hose Clamps Up To 25mm Dia. 3094 and initiate the tank leak detection diagnostic. If the leak is no longer indicated, the component that was clamped off is faulty. If clamped off directly at the leak detection pump and a leak is still indicated, the leak detection pump itself is leaking.

Function of "EPC" system

For "EPC" , the throttle valve is not operated by a cable from the accelerator pedal. There is no mechanical connection between the accelerator pedal and the throttle valve.

The position of the accelerator pedal is communicated to Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623 via Throttle Position (TP) Sensor G79/Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 G185 (variable resistances; stored in one housing) that are connected with the accelerator pedal.

The accelerator pedal position (drivers intention) is a main input unit for the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623.

Operation of the throttle valve occurs via an electric motor (Throttle Drive (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) G186 ) in the Throttle Valve Control Module J338. This is true across the entire engine speed and engine load spectrum.

Throttle valve is operated by Throttle Drive (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) G186 according to specifications of Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623.

With engine off and ignition switched on, Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623 controls the Throttle Drive (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) G186 exactly according to specifications of Throttle Position (TP) Sensor G79/Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 G185. This means, if the accelerator pedal is depressed half way, the Throttle Drive (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) G186 opens the throttle valve to the same degree; i.e. throttle valve is then opened approx. half way.

With engine running (under load), Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) J623 can open or close the throttle valve independently of Throttle Position (TP) Sensor G79/Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor 2 G185.

This means, for example, that the throttle valve could be fully opened even though the accelerator pedal has only been depressed half way. This has the advantage of preventing torque losses at the throttle valve.

In addition to this, it results in significantly better values relative to emissions and consumption under certain load conditions.

It would be incorrect to think that "EPC" consists of only one or two components. "EPC" is much more of a system containing all components that contribute to recognizing, controlling and monitoring the position of the throttle valve.

1. Observe safety precautions.
2. Observe rules for cleanliness.

Principle and function

Principle

Due to the rich mixture during the cold start phase, the exhaust emissions contain an increased level of unburned hydrocarbons. The Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system improves the secondary oxidation within the catalytic converter, thereby reducing harmful emissions. The heat released by secondary oxidation shortens the startup time of the catalytic converter considerably, as well as significantly improves emissions quality during the cold-running phase.

Function

1. During cold start (with coolant temperatures +15 to +35°C), the Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system blows air behind the exhaust valve for approx. 65 seconds. This produces an oxygen rich exhaust gas, causes the after burning and reduces the heating-up phase of the catalytic converter.
2. In addition, the Secondary Air Injection (AIR) system is switched on with a delay of approx. 20 seconds during idle for 5 seconds after every subsequent engine start up to max. 80°C coolant temperature and is checked via On Board Diagnostic (OBD).

On Board Diagnostic (OBD) Systems

OBD II

OBD is an abbreviation for the On Board Diagnostic System.

California OBD-II applies to all gasoline engine vehicles up to 14,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) starting in the 1996 MY and all diesel engine vehicles up to 14,000 lbs. GVWR starting in the 1997 MY.

Several states in the Northeastern United States have chosen to adopt the California emission regulations starting in the 1998 MY and are known as "Green States".

Green States receive California-certified vehicles for passenger cars and light trucks up to 6,000 lbs. GVWR. Starting in the 2004 MY, Federal vehicle over 8,500 lbs. will start phasing in OBD-II.

Starting in 2004 MY, gasoline-fueled Medium Duty Passenger Vehicles (MDPVs) are required to have OBD-II. Federal OBD-II applies to all gasoline engine vehicles up to 8,500 lbs. GVWR starting in the 1996 MY and all diesel engine vehicles up to 8,500 lbs. GVWR starting in the 1997 MY.

OBD-II system implementation and operation is described in the remainder of this document.

Serial Data Link (MIL) Illumination

MIL is an abbreviation for the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL).

If the Engine Control Module (ECM) recognizes a malfunction that leads to increased emissions values, it indicates them by lighting the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) which is located in the instrument cluster.

The Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) after the ignition is switched on. Shortly after the engine is started, The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) goes out if the Engine Control Module (ECM) does not detect a malfunction that increases the emissions values.

If the Engine Control Module (ECM) recognizes a malfunction that leads to increased emissions during the operation of the engine, the Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and an entry is stored in the DTC memory of the Engine Control Module (ECM).

Controller Area Network (CAN) Data Link

CAN is an abbreviation for Controller Area Network.

The Engine Control Module (ECM) communicates with all databus capable control modules via a CAN Data Link.

The databus capable control modules (i.e. Engine Coolant temperature Sensor) are connected via two data bus wires which are twisted together (CAN_High and CAN_Low), and exchange information (messages) to the Engine Control Module (ECM). Missing information on the databus is then recognized and stored as a malfunction.

The Engine Control Module (ECM) illuminates the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) through the CAN data link and tells the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) to turn on, turn off, or blink.

Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp

EPC is an abbreviation that stands for the Electronic Power Control (E-gas).

The Engine Control Module (ECM) monitors all EPC components after the ignition is switched on.

If a malfunction is recognized in the EPC system during the operation of the engine, the Engine Control Module (ECM) switches on the Electronic Power Control (EPC) Warning Lamp which is located in the instrument cluster and an entry is stored in the DTC memory of the Engine Control Module (ECM).
