Turbocharger Vacuum Diaphragm, Checking
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
• Hand Vacuum Pump (VAS 6213)
Test Conditions
• Hose from the exhaust turbocharger over wastegate bypass regulator valve (N75) must have continuity to vacuum diaphragm.
• Wastegate bypass regulator valve OK
Procedure
- Remove the engine cover - arrows -.
- Connect (VAS 6213) to vacuum diaphragm - arrow -.
- Set the slide ring - 1 - on (VAS 6213) to position - B - for "pressure".
The pressure must not exceed 750 mbar (10.87 psi). If the pressure is exceeded, the vacuum diaphragm can be damaged.
- Operate (VAS 6213) several times and observe rods.
The linkage - A - must move approximately 300 mbar (4.35 psi) and be at approximately 700 mbar (10.15 psi) at end position.
Actuator lift is approximately 10 mm.
• If pressure cannot be raised with (VAS 6213) or pressure drops immediately, check (VAS 6213) and connecting hoses for leaks. If no malfunction can be found: Replace vacuum diaphragm. Refer to => [ Turbocharger Vacuum Diaphragm ] Service and Repair.
