Injection Start, Checking Dynamically and Adjusting
Start of Injection, Dynamically Checking and Adjusting
NOTE:
- Dynamically checking and adjusting start of injection is only possible in function 04 "Engine basic setting".
- The start of injection must always be checked after replacing the toothed belt or loosening the injection pump bolts or toothed belt sprockets and adjusted if necessary
Special tools and equipment
- VAG 1331 Torque wrench 5 to 50 Nm (3.7 to 37 ft lb)
- VAG 1551/1552 Scan tool or VAG 1552 with adapter cable VAG 1551/3
Checking and adjustment conditions
- Mechanical engine basic setting OK.
- Toothed belt tension OK.
Work sequence
- Connect VAG 1551/1552 (Connecting scan tool and selecting engine electronics control module). Testing and Inspection
- Run engine at idle speed and press buttons -0- and -1- to select "Engine electronics" address word 01.

- Check coolant temperature in display field 7.
- Specification: less than 73 (equates to 85 °C)
Continue with check only when coolant temperature is attained.
The start of injection in display field 2 is dependent on the fuel temperature in display field 9.
A - Display field 2 start of injection
B - Display field 9 fuel temperature
C - Specified range for start of injection
Example:
The numerical value 90 in display field 9(B) corresponds to a numerical value range of 34 to 73 in display field 2 (A).
NOTE:
- If the start of injection specifications are within zone -C-, no adjustment is required. After repairs e.g. removing and installing the injection pump or adjusting the timing then the start of injection is to be set to the mean valve (dashed line) of the specification zone -C-.
If the start of injection (timing) is outside the specification tolerances:
- Remove connecting pipe between charge air cooler and intake manifold.
- Remove upper toothed belt guard.
- Loosen two injection pump sprocket bolts -1-.
- Position 22 mm wrench onto hub nut -2- to counter-hold pump shaft.
- Loosen 3rd injection pump sprocket bolt and turn pump shaft slightly:
To left = retards start of injection
To right = advances start of injection
NOTE: DO NOT loosen the hub nut -2-. If nut -2- is loosened the injection pump basic setting will be altered and this cannot be reset with normal workshop equipment
- Tighten new injection pump sprocket boils to 20 Nm (15 ft lb).
If the injection pump has not been removed and installed beforehand:
- Install new injection pump sprocket bolts in sequence.
- Observe figures infield 2 and if necessary adjust again until mean value for specification zone -C- is displayed.
- Tighten injection pump sprockets securing bolts a further 1/4 turn (90 °).
- Press the -> button.
- Press buttons -0- and -6- to select "End output" function 06 and confirm entry with -Q- button.
- Switch ignition off.
- Check DTC memory and, if necessary, repair any malfunctions and then erase. Testing and Inspection
- Read readiness code. Testing and Inspection
If the DTC memory has been erased or the engine control module was disconnected from permanent battery positive (B+), the readiness code must be generated again. Testing and Inspection
