for working on fuel system permitted unless authorised by AUDI AG. AUDI AG does not guarantee or accept any liability
with respect to the correctness of information in this document. Copyright by AUDI AG.
WARNING
Procedure
– Connect vehicle diagnostic tester , select function “Reducing
fuel pressure in fuel rail” in “Guided Functions” and follow on-
screen instructions.
• Fuel pressure will drop to a specified value.
– Switch off ignition.
The fuel rail is still filled with fuel, however it is no longer under
high pressure.
WARNING
Note
Procedure
– Check all vacuum lines in the complete vacuum system for:
♦ Cracks
♦ Traces of animal bites
♦ Kinked or crushed lines
♦ Lines porous or leaking
– Check vacuum line to solenoid valve and from solenoid valve
to corresponding component.
– If an entry is stored in the event memory, check the vacuum
lines leading to the corresponding component and also check
the other vacuum lines leading to other components.
– If it is not possible to build up a vacuum with the hand vacuum
pump -VAS 6213- or if the vacuum pressure drops again im‐
mediately, check the hand vacuum pump and connecting
hoses for leaks.

Installing
To ensure that the fuel systems function properly, it is important
to observe the following notes and instructions.
Note
♦ If the air filter element is very dirty or wet, dirt or water could
reach components and affect the measured values. This
would lead to loss of power, since a smaller injection quantity
is calculated.
♦ Always use genuine part for air filter element.
♦ The air cleaner housing MUST be clean.
♦ Hose connections and air pipes and hoses must be free of oil
and grease before assembly.
♦ Use a silicone-free lubricant when installing the air hoses.
♦ Secure all hose connections with the correct type of hose clips
(same as original equipment) ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .
♦ To prevent malfunctions, cover critical parts of the engine air
intake (such as air pipes, etc.) with a clean cloth when blowing
out the air cleaner housing with compressed air.
♦ Observe environmental requirements for disposal.
– Clean salt residue, dirt and leaves out of air cleaner housing
(top and bottom sections) using a vacuum cleaner.
– Blow out water drain -arrow- with compressed air. Copying for private or commercial purposes, in part or in whole, is not

WARNING
The shear bolts and protective housing also become very hot
when heating the threads of the locking mechanism. Take care
to avoid burns. It is also important to ensure that only the thread
is heated and none of the surrounding components if at all
possible. These should be covered if necessary.
– The two shear bolts screwed into the engine control unit do
not need to be heated. They should be removed without being
heated.
– Detach protective housing from control unit connectors.
– Release connectors on engine control unit and unplug con‐
nectors.
Installing
Installation is carried out in the reverse order; note the following:
– After installation, the protective housing must be re-fitted on
the engine control unit -J623- .
– Clean threaded holes for shear bolts to remove any residue
from locking fluid. This can be done using a thread tap.
– Always use new shear bolts.
– Install filler neck for washer fluid reservoir ⇒ Electrical system;
Rep. gr. 92 .
After installing a new engine control unit, the following operation
must be performed:
– Activate engine control unit via a vehicle diagnostic tester in
“Guided Functions” mode, “Replace engine Protected

nition system”, page 68

carrying out repairs and fault finding, the event memory must
be interrogated. The vacuum hoses and connections must al‐
so be checked (unmetered air).
♦ A voltage of at least 11.5 V is required for proper operation of
the electrical components.
♦ Entries will be stored in the event memory of the engine control
unit if electrical connectors have been unplugged and the en‐
gine started.
♦ If the engine starts, runs for a short period and then cuts out
after completing fault finding, repairs or component tests, this
may be due to the immobilizer disabling the engine control
unit. The event memory of the engine control unit must then
be interrogated and, if necessary, the control unit must be
adapted.
Additional steps required
– Erase any entries in event memory resulting from testing or
repairs ⇒ Vehicle diagnostic tester, Guided Functions , In-
terrogate event memory , then Generate readiness
code .
