FUEL SUPPLY SYSTEM, SERVICING

Note. All manufacturers special tools as well as common tools may contain a manufacturer specific part number. These tools may be substituted with an equivalent aftermarket tool or are available for purchase through Manufacturers special tools as well as common tools that contain a manufacturer specific part number may be referenced in the test procedure illustrations showing the tool use or installation. If the manufacturer specific tool is not being used, an equivalent aftermarket tool may be installed in the same manner as the manufacturers special tool. The manufacturers test box Test Box 105 Pin VAG 1598/31 is available for purchase or rental.

WARNINGThe use of nails, paper clips, or another unauthorized materials to back-probe electrical harness connectors is strictly prohibited and may cause damage to the electrical harness connectors, terminal ends or damage to a component. Use only the manufacturers test lead kit or an equivalent aftermarket test lead kit for back-probing all electrical harness connectors.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNINGFuel system is under pressure! Before opening system, place rags around the connection area. Then release pressure by carefully loosening the connection. Vehicles with FSI engine: The engine section of the fuel system, after the high pressure pump, is under extremely high pressure! When working on engine or fuel injection system, pressure must be relieved to residual pressure before opening high pressure components.

Perform the following steps before beginning work on the Fuel system

  1. Disconnect the battery Ground (GND) cable with the ignition switched off.
  2. Open the fuel filler flap briefly and then close again.

When removing and installing components from full or partially full fuel tanks, observe the following

  1. The fuel tank must only be partially full. How much fuel can remain in the fuel tank may be read in the respective work description. Empty the fuel tank if necessary.
  2. Before starting work, switch on the exhaust extraction system and place an extraction hose close to the installation opening of the fuel tank to extract escaping fuel fumes. If no exhaust extraction system is available, a radial fan (as long as motor is not in air flow) with a displacement greater than 15 m 3 /h can be used.
  3. Prevent fuel from contacting the skin! Wear fuel-resistant gloves!

CLEAN WORKING CONDITIONS

When working on the fuel supply/injection system, pay careful attention to the following rules of cleanliness

  1. Thoroughly clean all connections and the surrounding area before disconnecting.
  2. Place parts that have been removed on a clean surface and cover them. Do not use fluffy cloths!
  3. Carefully cover over opened components or seal, if repairs are not performed immediately.
  4. Only install clean components: Only unpack replacement parts immediately prior to installation. Do not use parts that have been stored unpacked (e.g. in tool boxes etc.).
  5. When the system is open: Do not work with compressed air. Do not move vehicle unless absolutely necessary.

EVAP SYSTEM, DETECTING LEAKS

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 by 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.

Leak checking

Using a Smoke tester, check the Evaporative Emission (EVAP) canister system for leaks.

Note. Always follow the manufacturers directions for the proper installation and operation of the Smoke tester being used.

If a leak is detected

Check the seals under the locking flanges and the union nuts are properly tightened on the fuel tank.

Check all hose connections of the fuel supply system and replace or repair any leaking lines.

Check all hose connections of the EVAP system and replace or repair any leaking lines.

ELECTRONIC POWER CONTROL SYSTEM FUNCTION

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 Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- by 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 (driver's intention) is a main input unit for the Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-.

Operation of the throttle valve occurs by 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 Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-.

With engine off and ignition switched on, 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), 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.

Observe safety precautions.

Observe rules for cleanliness.
