Caution
There is a risk that an engine malfunction may
occur.
When routing the vacuum lines, make sure they are
not kinked, twisted or pinched.

Vacuum System, Checking
Special tools and workshop equipment
required
- Hand Vacuum Pump -VAS6213-
Procedure
- Check all vacuum lines in the entire vacuum system for:
- Cracks
- Damage caused by animals
- Pinching
- Porous locations and other leaks
- Check the vacuum line leading both to and from the solenoid
valve to the respective component.
- If there is a fault stored in the DTC memory, check the
vacuum lines for the named component, but also check all the
vacuum lines.
- If using the Hand Vacuum Pump -VAS6213- does not produce any
vacuum or if the vacuum drops again right away, then check the
hand vacuum pump and the connection hoses for leaks.

Note
Cylinder heads with cracks between the valve seats or between valve
seat ring and spark plug thread can still be used without loss of
service life if the cracks are minute (max. 0.3 mm width) or only the
first four threads of a spark plug thread are cracked.
