IDLE CHECK

  1. Before checking idle. There must be no exhaust leaks in between cylinder head and catalytic converter. Coolant temperature needs to be greater than 176°F (80°C). Battery voltage needs to be greater than 11.5 volts. All electrical consumers and A/C need to be switched off. Vehicle in park or neutral, with parking brake on.
  2. Connect scan tool to DLC. See «DATA LINK CONNECTOR»(ref-160798-S03646741422004030100000) .
  3. Start engine and idle. Using scan tool check for DTCs in memory. Using scan tool, retrieve DTCs. See RETRIEVING CODES. If no DTCs are stored, go to next step. If DTCs are stored, repair as necessary. See DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE IDENTIFICATION table, in appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article. Using scan tool, clear DTC memory. See CLEARING CODES in appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article.
  4. Briefly increase engine RPM to 3500 and let idle for two minutes. Using scan tool, follow scan tool manufacturer's instructions to check idle speed. For idle specifications, see «IDLE SPEED SPECIFICATIONS»(ref-160798-S03434423602004030100000) table.

Note. Manufacturer recommends use of Scan Tool VAG 1551/1552 or VAS 5051/5052.

Reading Readiness Code

Note. If you are not able to read Readiness Code or Readiness Code needs to be generated. See appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article.

Readiness code is returned to -0 1 1 0 1 1 0 1- if DTC memory is erased, voltage supply to ECM is lost, or a new ECM is installed. To read readiness code, connect scan tool to DLC. See DATA LINK CONNECTOR. Turn ignition on. Follow scan tool manufacturer's instructions and read Readiness Code. (Scheme 13) Readiness code should display -0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0-.

AIR INDUCTION SYSTEMS

CAUTIONWhen battery is disconnected, radio will go into anti-theft protection mode. Obtain radio anti-theft protection code from owner prior to servicing vehicle.

AIR LEAK CHECKS

Note. Manufacturer recommends using Scan Tool VAG 1551/1552 or VAS 5051/5052.

  1. Ensure exhaust system has no leaks. Connect scan tool, see «DATA LINK CONNECTOR»(ref-160798-S03646741422004030100000) . Start engine and allow it to idle at closed throttle position. Observe scan tool Oxygen sensor (O2S) and RPM readings.
  2. Spray air intake system with Leak Detector Spray (G-001-800-A1). Air intake leaks will draw in leak detector spray. The spray reduces air/fuel mixture ignition and engine RPM, and decreases CO reading. Repair leaks as necessary.

EuroVan 2.8L (Engine Code AXK)

Note. For location of Data Link Connector (DLC), see DATA LINK CONNECTOR . Manufacturer recommends using Scan Tool VAG 1551/1552 or VAS 5051/5052.

Note. When voltage supply to ECM is interrupted, ECM looses all "learned" and/or "basic" values. Serious driveability problems may occur depending on vehicle mileage. A relearn procedure must be performed, see TEST DRIVE RELEARN PROCEDURE .

Note. This test should only be performed if engine performance is poor. Intake manifold switches from long intake path to short at approximately 4500 RPM. Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) valve (N156) and actuator are located on right side of intake manifold. (Scheme 14)

  1. Verify battery voltage is a minimum of 11.5 volts and all fuses are okay. Repair as necessary. Start engine and let idle. Using a second technician, briefly depress accelerator pedal. Check for movement of vacuum actuated IMT linkage and shaft (shaft is located in intake manifold). (Scheme 14) Vacuum actuated IMT linkage and shaft should move, temporarily closing off long manifold runners. Turn engine off. If vacuum actuated IMT linkage and shaft function properly, IMT system is okay. If vacuum actuated IMT linkage and shaft do not operate properly, go to next step.
  2. Using a vacuum pump, check vacuum actuator, IMT linkage and shaft operation. If vacuum actuator, IMT linkage and shaft operate properly, go to next step. If vacuum actuator, IMT linkage and shaft do not operate properly, repair or replace as necessary. Verify repair. Test is complete.
  3. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool activate IMT valve. IMT valve should audibly click and actuator will operate if vacuum is present in vacuum reservoir. If IMT valve operation is okay, IMT system is okay. If IMT valve does not audibly click, go to next step.
  4. Disconnect IMT valve 2-pin harness connector. (Scheme 14) Using adapter cables from Test Kit (VAG 1594), connect Voltage Tester (VAG 1527) to IMT valve 2-pin harness connector. With ignition on, observe voltage tester LED. Voltage tester LED should blink (light to dark). Record results. If LED on voltage tester did not blink, go to next step. If voltage tester LED blinks, using scan tool, stop actuation of IMT valve. Turn ignition off. Replace faulty IMT valve. After repairs, erase DTC memory. Verify repair. Test is complete.
  5. Turn ignition on. Check for battery voltage at outgoing side of fuse No. 18. see scheme 10 If battery voltage is present, turn ignition off and go to next step. If battery voltage is not present, check power supply for fuse No. 18. See ENGINE PERFORMANCE in SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS article in ELECTRICAL. Repair as necessary. After repairs, erase DTC memory. Verify repair. Test is complete.
  6. Disconnect ECM harness connector. Connect Test Box (VAG 1598/31) to ECM harness connector. See «CONNECTING VAG TEST BOX»(ref-160798-S19411562162004030100000). Using DVOM, check for continuity between IMT 2-pin harness connector terminal No. 2 and test box socket No. 104. (Scheme 15) Using DVOM, check for continuity between IMT valve 2-pin harness connector terminal No. 1 and fuse No. 18. Resistance should be a maximum of 1.5 ohms for each reading. If DVOM measurements are okay, replace faulty ECM. See ENGINE CONTROL MODULE under REMOVAL, OVERHAUL & INSTALLATION. After repairs, erase DTC memory. Verify repair. Test is complete. Perform ECM relearn procedure. See «TEST DRIVE RELEARN PROCEDURE»(ref-160798-S02926260952004030100000).

Note. Manufacturers alphanumeric identification for Engine Speed (RPM) sensor is (G28).

Note. Engine Speed (RPM) sensor is a speed and reference sensor. If Engine Speed sensor does not send a signal, engine will not start. If Engine Speed sensor fails when engine is running, engine will stall.

Note. When voltage supply to ECM is interrupted, ECM looses all "learned" and/or "basic" values. Serious driveability problems may occur depending on vehicle mileage. A relearn procedure must be performed, see TEST DRIVE RELEARN PROCEDURE .
