Fuel Rail, Assembly Overview





1 Fuel injector

With combustion chamber seal (Teflon seal), always replace

Replace O-Rings

Note correct installation position

Removing and installing => [ Fuel Injectors, Removing and Installing ] Fuel Injectors, Removing and Installing

2 Support ring

3 Fuel rail

Removing and installing => [ Fuel Rail, Separating from the Intake Manifold ] Intake Manifold With Fuel Rail, Removing and Installing

4 Mechanical single-piston high-pressure pump

With Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve (N276)

An electrical fuel pump, located in the fuel tank, supplies fuel to the mechanical high-pressure pump at a pressure of approximately 7 bar

Make sure dirt does not enter the fuel system when installing the high pressure pump.

The fuel system must be pressureless to install the high-pressure pump, releasing fuel pressure => [ Releasing Pressure in High Pressure Area ] Releasing Pressure In High Pressure Area

Do not install fuel lines with tension

Removing and installing => [ High Pressure Pump, Removing and Installing ] High Pressure Pump, Removing and Installing

5 Roller tappet

6 Fuel Pressure Regulator Valve (N276)

7 High pressure pump bolts

Replace

10 Nm

8 Fuel supply line connectors

Replace

22 Nm

9 Fuel supply line union nut

18 Nm

10 Channel separating plates

11 Gasket

Replace

12 Intake manifold

Removing and installing => [ Intake Manifold with Fuel Rail, Removing and Installing ] Intake Manifold With Fuel Rail, Removing and Installing

13 Vacuum diaphragm for the channel separating plate

checking => [ Variable Intake Manifold, Checking ] Testing and Inspection

14 Throttle Valve Control Module (J338), Throttle Drive (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) (G186)

Throttle Drive Angle Sensor 1 (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) (G187) and Throttle Drive Angle Sensor 2 (for Electronic Power Control (EPC)) (G188)

after replacing Throttle Valve Control Module (J338), it must be readapted to Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623), "Guided Functions"

15 Intake manifold bolts

Pretighten to 3 Nm, and then tighten to 9 Nm

16 Intake Manifold Runner Position Sensor (G336)

17 Fuel Pressure Sensor (G247)
