Chassis designations with PR numbers
A variety of chassis can be installed depending
on the engine used and the equipment fitted.
These all designated with a PR number.
The chassis which is installed in the vehicle is
documented by the PR number for the front axle
recorded on the vehicle data carrier.
The vehicle data carrier is located at the rear on
the left of the base of the luggage compartment
and in the service plan.
K Example of a vehicle data carrier
This example shows that the vehicle is fitted with
a standard chassis 1GA -arrow-.
The table below shows a listing of the various
chassis PR numbers which are decisive for the
allocation of nominal values to the vehicle

Inspecting shock absorbers
K Leaks at shock absorbers
A slight oil leakage (sweating) at the gasket of
the piston rod is not a reason for replacing the
shock absorber.
If an oil stain is visible (but mat, possibly dry
because of dust) and does not spread any further than from the top shock absorber closure
(piston rod seal) to the bottom spring retainer
(arrow), the shock absorber is regarded as being in proper order.
Note:
A slight outflow of oil is advantageous as this
lubricates the seal and thus increases the service life. This applies both to the front and rear
shock absorbers.
Noises at shock absorbers
We have reason to point out that, if a complaint
is received regarding noise, the shock absorbers are too often regarded as a source of the
noise.
Note:
When dealing with complaints which can be interpreted as a rumbling or snapping noise, it is
essential to first of all carry out a road test together with the customer in order to find out
where, when and how the noises exist (this is
best done on a dry road surface with bumps).

Inspecting shock absorber without gas pressure
Faulty shock absorbers can be detected when
driving as a result of rumbling noises - as a consequence of the wheel jumping - particularly on
a poor road surface, and should be replaced.
The cause of the problem is in most cases a
loss of oil. The shock absorber can then be compressed and/or pulled apart suddenly. There is
an idle travel before the shock absorber begins to operate.
Note:
Shock absorbers require no maintenance. It is
not possible to top up the shock absorber fluid.
Edition 10.98
S00.5103.54.20
------------
------------
40
Front Suspension
OCTAVIA
Testing shock absorber with gas pressure
Faulty shock absorbers with gas pressure are
also recognizable from loud rumbling noises
because of the wheel jumping and, in most
cases, as a result of an oil loss visible on the
outside.
It is possible to carry out an inspection by hand
to determine whether the shock absorber is
faulty or not:
-
Compress shock absorber by hand.
When this is done, it must be possible to
move the piston rod with even pressure and
free of jerks over the entire stroke.
Release piston rod; if the shock absorber has
an adequate gas pressure, the piston rod automatically returns to its initial position.
If this is not the case, it is not immediately
necessary to replace the shock absorber as
it continues to operate like a conventional
shock absorber (see Notes below).
Notes:
The damping function is fully retained even
without gas pressure provided no major oil
loss has occurred. There may, however, be
a deterioration in the noise characteristics.
On older vehicles, a shock absorber which
has become pressureless but is otherwise
operating properly, can continue to be reused.
Shock absorbers with gas pressure are fitted only to the rear axle.
The gas pressure in the shock absorber improves the noise characteristics and operation when driving on poor road surfaces.

Disposing of shock absorbers
Special tools, testers and aids required
Pipe cutter, e.g. Stahlwille Express 150/3
Protective goggles
Oil drip tray
Warning!
Cover over opening and wear eye protection when
releasing the gas pressure (gas pressure of new
shock absorber as much as 25 bar).
Notes:
All the shock absorbers contain hydraulic
fluid. The hydraulic fluid can be drained after drilling into, sawing or cutting open the
part. In addition, gas pressure shock absorbers are filled with gas. The gas should be
released from the gas pressure shock absorbers before disposing of them.
The hydraulic fluids used in shock absorbers do not contain any harmful substances.
These fluids can be disposed of together with
old oil from engines and gearboxes.
Old oils (this term refers to used engine and
gearbox oils incl. ATF as well as mineral hydraulic fluids), which are suitable for reprocessing, must on no account be mixed with
brake fluid, antifreeze agent, synthetic resin
or nitro thinners, chemicals etc.
After draining, allow any remaining fluid to
adequately drip out.

Note:
Gas escapes when drilling through the first pipe
wall (only in the case of gas pressure shock absorbers).
-
Continue drilling until you have drilled through
the inner tube (about 25 mm deep).
Drill a second 6 mm hole (arrow B) deep
enough to pierce the inner tube.
Hold shock absorber over oil drip tray, move
piston rod up and down several times over
the entire stroke until no further fluid flows
out.

Notes:
In view of the hard material (as opposed to
rubber) of the joint boot, which requires the
use of a stainless steel warm-type clamp, it
can only be correctly tightened with tensioning pliers e.g. V.A.G 1682.
Tightening torque: 25 Nm
Use a torque wrench.
Make sure the thread of the spindle -A- of
the tensioning pliers is smooth. If necessary
grease with Molykote MoS2.
If it is not smooth, e.g. if the thread is dirty, the
necessary tensioning force of the warm-type
clamp is not reached at the given torque.

Notes:
The spring retainer set V.A.G 1752/15 has
been specially developed for 4x4 vehicles in
order to provide reliable removal and installation of the coil springs.
Very high forces are produced when
tensioning the coil springs. For this reason,
it is important to closely observe the following safety precautions.
Warning!
Ensure that the spring retainers are positioned
as close as possible to the spring coils.
During the tensioning operation, ensure that the
spring retainers are correctly located at the
spring coils.

Notes:
No load should be acting on the wheel bearing when the twelve-point nut is slackened.
If a load from the deadweight of the vehicle
is acting on the wheel bearing, it will suffer
initial damage and the wheel bearing life will
thus be reduced.
If it is necessary to move the vehicle on which
the drive shaft has been taken out, first of all
install an outer joint in place of the drive shaft
and tighten to 50 Nm otherwise the wheel
bearing will be damaged.

Wheels/tyres/vehicle measurement
Vehicle measurement
General points
The vehicle must only be measured up using
an axle measuring device which is authorised
for use by the vehicle manufacturer!
We recommend that one measures the front and
the rear axle during every vehicle measurement
operation.
Correct driving behaviour cannot be guaranteed
otherwise!
Comments:
It is only meaningful to measure up the vehicle once it has driven its first 1000 to 2000
km. since it is only then that the helical
springs have settled into place.
One should always seek to precisely obtain
the nominal values in each case when making adjustments.
The basic setting should be undertaken after measuring up the axles on vehicles with
ESP, Function 04, Group 060 Page 45-124.
If the installed position of the rear axle and thus
the running direction of the vehicle is not taken
into account then a tilted steering wheel can be
the result.
Removing and installing the steering wheel
Body work; Re. Gr. 69
The necessity for undertaking a vehicle
measurement exists when:
There is some deficiency in the driving characteristics of the vehicle;
There is damage to the vehicle due to an
accident and parts had to be replaced;
Parts of the axle have been removed;
There is one-sided wear on the tyres.

Wheels/Tyres/Chassis Alignment
Attention!
l For correct fitting and adjustment of the
wheel-alignment analyser, strictly adhere to
the operating instructions of the equipment
manufacturer!
If necessary, ask the manufacturer of your
wheel-alignment analyser to instruct you on
its use.
The wheel-alignment platform and wheelalignment analyser/analysing computer may
in the course of time vary from their original
levelling/setting.
The wheel-alignment platform and wheelalignment analyser/analysing computer
should at least once per year, as part of
the routine maintenance, be checked and
if necessary adjusted in accordance with
the data specified in the operating instructions of the equipment manufacturer!
These highly sensitive apparatus should
be treated carefully and scrupulously!
Measuring preparations
The lateral rim runout present must be compensated, otherwise an incorrect measurement result is obtained.
A correct toe-in setting is not possible without rim runout compensation!
Make sure to observe the relevant instructions
of the wheel-alignment analyser manufacturer.
-
Perform rim runout compensation.

Overview of procedure for checking vehicle
alignment
It is essential to observe the following sequence of steps!
1 - Find out which suspension is fitted to the
vehicle.
You can find this information on the vehicle data sticker page 00-4.
2 - Inspect camber at front suspension, centre if necessary page 44-2.4.
3 - Inspect camber at rear suspension
page 44-2.5.
4 - Inspect toe at rear suspension, centre/
set if necessary page 44-2.5.
FWD models:
The toe of the rear suspension cannot be
set, but only centred.
4x4 models:
The toe of the rear suspension can be
set.
5 - Inspect toe at front suspension, set if necessary page 44-2.6.
The following general rule applies!
If one of the measurements obtained is not within
the tolerance, it is necessary to check the lateral inclination of the vehicle before carrying out
the setting page 44-2.3.

Inspecting the vehicles transversal
inclination
Zero position transversal inclination of vehicle
If the measured values fall outside the tolerances of the front and rear axle nominal values ( page 00-1), this may be caused by
the inclined position of the vehicle.
Right-hand drive vehicles or vehicles with automatic transmission may exhibit a slight inclination.
This is normal and is due to the fitting position
of the assemblies and the associated weight
transfer.

Compare dimensions aleft and aright.
The deviation between aleft and aright should
not exceed 5.0 mm in either direction.
Correct deviations that fall outside the
5.0 mm tolerance.
If the positive tolerance is exceeded, e.g.

Arithmetical determination of rolling direction deviation of rear suspension
Note:
The values below are only given by way of example.
-
For track values with the same sign (+/+ or -/-), substract the smaller value and divide by 2.
Track value for rear left wheel
Track value for rear right wheel
+15
+5
15 - 5 = 10
10 : 2 = 5
Rolling direction deviation = 5
-
Values with different signs (+/-) are added together and the sum is divided by 2.
Track value for rear left wheel
Track value for rear right wheel
+15
-5
15 + 5 = 20
20 : 2 = 10
Rolling direction deviation = 10
The result thus obtained is the actual rolling direction deviation of the longitudinal vehicle axis.

Safety precautions, basic information on fault finding and on servicing ABS and ABS/EDL ITT Mark
20 IE
The ABS, ABS/EDL are vehicle safety
systems; system knowledge is required for
working on such systems.
K Faults are indicated by the ABS warning light
(K47) -1- and the red warning light for handbrake/brake fluid level (K14/33) -2- coming

-
Disconnect the negative terminal of the
battery and cover over the negative pole
of the battery; remove battery if necessary.
Connect the earth connection of the electric welding equipment directly to the part
to be welded. There must not be any electrically insulated parts between the earth
connection and the welding point.
Do not allow electronic control units and
electric wiring to come into contact with
the earth connection or the welding electrode.
Do not drive the vehicle with the connector
unplugged from the control unit.
The only work which may be carried out on
the hydraulic control unit are the repair measures stated in this manual.
Scrupulous cleanliness is essential when
working on the anti-lock brake system. On
no account, use products containing mineral
oils, such as oils, grease etc.
Thoroughly clean connection points and the
surrounding area before disconnecting, but
do not use any aggressive cleaning products, such as brake cleaner, petroleum, thinner or similar products.
Place removed parts down on a clean surface and cover over.
Fit on the transport protection for the valve
domes after separating the control unit/hydraulic unit.
Carefully cover over or seal open components if repairs are not carried out immediately (use the plugs from repair kit 1H0 698
311 A).
Do not use any fluffing cloth.
Do not remove replacement parts from their
wrapping until just before installing.
Use only genuine, wrapped parts.
If the system is opened, avoid working with
compressed air and avoid moving the vehicle.
Ensure that no brake fluid flows into the connectors.

Self-diagnosis
Function of self-diagnosis
Models fitted with data BUS (CAN-BUS)
In view of the various control units which are interlinked over a databus
line, the first step when commencing fault finding is always to interrogate
the contents of the fault memories of the control units fitted to the vehicle.
This is done with the Automatic test sequence which is activated with
the key function 00.
The point to verify here is whether a fault which may be stored, could
have an effect on the ABS system.
All models
The 25-pin ABS control unit (J104), together with the hydraulic unit, forms
a compact unit. The unit is located in the left of the engine compartment.
The control unit is equipped with a fault memory. The connection for selfdiagnosis is located in the storage compartment on the drivers side.
Self-diagnosis relates to the electrical/electronic part of the ABS, in other
words faults are detected only over the electrical connection to the control unit (e.g. open circuit of a wheel speed sensor).
The control unit detects faults during operation of the vehicle and stores
them in a permanent memory. This information is retained even if the
battery voltage is disconnected.
Faults which occur sporadically are likewise detected and stored. If this
fault no longer occurs during 50 vehicle starts and starting-off operations,
it is erased in the fault memory (fault delete counter), with the exception
of the fault Control unit defective.
After the ignition is switched on, the ABS warning light (K47) and the red
warning light for handbrake/brake fluid level (K14/33) come on for about
2 seconds.
During this period a self-check is performed in the control unit with the
following functions:
Test of supply voltage, min. 10.0 V.
Test of control unit including valve coils.
Check of coding of control unit.
Static test of wheel speed sensors (without wheel speed signal).
If, after starting off and reaching a vehicle speed of about 20 km/h, it is
found that the wheel speed signal is not o.k., the ABS warning light
-K47- comes on again.
When commencing fault finding, always initiate self-diagnosis and interrogate the information stored with the

The control unit is able to transmit a large
number of measured values. These measured
values supply information regarding the
operating state of the system or of the sensors
connected. In many cases, the measured values
transmitted can be used for assisting fault finding
and rectification of faults. As it is not possible to
assess all of these measured values at the same
time, they are combined into individual display
groups which can be selected by means of
display group numbers.

Safety precautions
If it is necessary to use test and measuring
equipment during a road test, pay attention to
the following procedure:
The test and measuring equipment should
always be attached to the rear seat and
operated from that point by a second person.
If the test and measuring equipment were
operated from the front passenger seat, this
could result in injury to the person occupying
that seat in the event of an accident if the
front passenger airbag is deployed.

Final control diagnosis
Special tools, testers and aids required
Vehicle system tester V.A.G 1552
Diagnosis cable V.A.G 1551/3
Final control diagnosis is part of the electrical
test. Final control diagnosis is used for testing
the pump motor and also to check correct
operation of the hydraulic circuits (assignment
of brake pressure lines to the wheel brakes, and
also operation of the valves) to ensure they are
correctly connected and are not leaking.
Notes:
The vehicle must be raised so that the wheels
are clear of the ground (2nd person required
for rotating the wheels).
It is possible to quit the test procedure at any
time by pressing the key C.
After depressing the brake pedal several
times, the vacuum in the brake servo unit is
reduced. Greater effort is then required to
operate the brake pedal in order to achieve
the same fluid pressure in the brake system,
as with vacuum assistance.
Once the vacuum in the brake servo unit has
been reduced, it is possible that the wheels
do not lock start engine in order to build
up vacuum in the brake servo unit.
Operate vehicle system tester by referring
to the Readout in the display.

If the measurements obtained differ from the specifications, carry out measurements for rectifying faults
in the right-hand part of the table.
If the specifications are achieved, additionally test the cables for short circuit to positive and to earth.
Use the adapter cable set V.A.G 1594 A for conducting continuity test (bridges).
If the measurements obtained differ only slightly from the specifications, clean sockets and connectors of
the test equipment and test cables (e.g. with contact spray) and repeat test. Before replacing the relevant

This can result in corrosion to the contacts and
thus in a failure of the system.
If the plug housing is soiled, it should be carefully
cleaned with compressed air.

Depress brake pedal and lock in position with
brake pedal depressor, e.g. V.A.G 1238/B.
Fit the bleeder hose of the bleeder bottle onto
the bleeder screw of the front left brake
caliper and open bleeder screw.
After brake fluid has flowed out, close bleeder
screw.
Detach bleeder hose from the bleeder screw.
K-
Release multi-pin connector and unplug from
control unit.
Note:
Ensure that no brake fluid gets onto the contacts.
K-
Place an absorbent mat below the hydraulic
control unit to absorb the brake fluid.
Note:
Brake lines in the area of the hydraulic unit must
not be bent.
------------ 45-54 ------------
Detach the brake lines from the brake master
cylinder to hydraulic unit, see arrows, and fit
on caps from repair kit Part No. 1H0 698 311
A to protect them from dirt.
On models with left-hand steering, tie up the
detached brake lines with a welding wire as
high up as possible so that the ends of the
lines project above the fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir -arrows-.
Detach the remaining brake lines from the
hydraulic unit.

Notes:
Do not remove plugs at the hydraulic unit
until the appropriate brake line is fitted on.
If the plugs are removed sooner from the
hydraulic unit, brake fluid may flow out with
the result that the system is no longer
properly filled and bled.
Note:
Do not fully tighten bolts. This makes it easier
to connect the individual brake lines to the
hydraulic control unit.

If the measurements obtained differ from the specifications, carry out measures for rectifying faults stated in the
right-hand column of the table.
If the specifications are achieved, additionally test the cables for short circuit to positive and to earth.
Perform continuity tests with adapter cable set V.A.G 1594 A (bridges).
If the measurements obtained differ only slightly from the specifications, clean sockets and connectors of the test
equipment and test cables (e.g. with contact spray) and repeat test. Before replacing the relevant components,
inspect cables and connections, and repeat the resistance measurement at the component, particularly in the case
for specifications of less than 10 ohms.

The ABS/EDL/ESP is a vehicle safety system; work on this system requires system
knowledge.
K Indication of faults by the warning lights for:
- ABS (K47) -1- Handbrake/brake fluid level (K14/33) -2- Electronic stability programme (K155) -3 page 45-92.
Certain faults are not detected until the vehicle speed is more than 20 km/h (conduct a
road test).
If the ABS warning light -K47- and the handbrake/brake fluid level warning light -K14/33do not come on and the brake system is
nevertheless not fully operational, look for the
fault in the conventional brake system
from page 46-1 and from page 47-26.

Anti-Lock Brake System
and
The ABS prevents the wheels locking during a
brake application initiated by the driver.
The electronic differential lock, EDL, is a starting-off aid. A supporting torque is created for
the differential by electronically controlling the
braking of the driven wheel which is slipping.
The engine power is thus available for the gripping wheel with the better adhesion. This also
applies when reversing.
You can find a description of the design and
operation of the ABS and EDL in Self Study Programme No. 26.
The electronic stability programme -ESP- detects critical driving situations and stabilises the
vehicle by braking individual wheels and intervening in the engine management system. This
happens independently of the operation of the
brake or of the accelerator pedal.
The ESP operates throughout the entire speed
range of the vehicle. If the ESP is in the control
mode, the ESP warning light flashes three times
a second.
You can find a description of the design and
operation of the ESP in the Self Study Programme No. 28.
The brake system is split diagonally. Brake servo
assistance is provided pneumatically by the
vacuum brake servo unit.
Models fitted with ABS/EDL/ESP ITT Mark 20
IE do not have a mechanical brake pressure
regulator. Specifically matched software in the
control unit, the electronic brake pressure distribution, EBD, regulates the brake pressure at
the rear wheels.
The hydraulic pump -V64-, the hydraulic unit
-N55- and the control unit -J104- form the hydraulic control unit. Repairs can only be carried
out when the parts are removed.
New control units supplied through the Parts
Sector are not coded. They require to be coded
after being installed.

Self-diagnosis of ABS/EDL/TCS/ESP Mark 20
Function
In view of the control units which are all interlinked by a databus line, always
interrogate the contents of the fault memories of the control units fitted in
the vehicle at the start of fault finding.
This is done with the Automatic test sequence which is activated with the
key function 00.
What is checked here is whether any faults which might affect the ABS
system, are stored.
Self-diagnosis relates to the electrical/electronic part of the ABS, in other
words only faults relating to the electrical connection to the control unit (e.g.
open circuit in wiring of a wheel speed sensor) are detected.
The 47-pin ABS control unit -J104-, together with the hydraulic unit, forms a
compact unit. This unit is located in the left of the engine compartment. The
control unit is equipped with a fault memory. The connection for self-diagnosis is located in the storage compartment on the driver side.
The control unit detects faults during operation of the vehicle and stores
them in a permanent memory. This information is retained even if the battery voltage is disconnected.
Faults which occur sporadically (occasionally), are likewise detected and
stored. If, however, faults relating to the databus system are no longer detected during 15 vehicle starts and moving-off operations, or other faults are
no longer detected during 50 vehicle starts and moving-off operations, the
fault is then erased in the fault memory with the exception of the fault Control unit defective (fault delete counter).
After the ignition is switched on and/or the engine is started, the ABS warning light -K47-, the red handbrake/brake fluid level warning light -K14/33and the electronic stability programme warning light -K155- come on for
about 2 seconds.
During this time a test procedure (self-check) with the following functions is
performed in the control unit:
Test of supply voltage at least 10.0 V.
Test of control unit including valve coils.
Test of coding of control unit.
Static test of wheel speed sensors (without wheel speed signal).
If it is found, after starting off and once a speed of about 20 km/h has
been reached, that the wheel speed signal is not o.k., the ABS warning
light -K47- comes on again.

In view of the control units which are interlinked over a databus line, always commence fault finding by initiating the
Automatic test sequence with the key function 0 and 0 at all the control units fitted to the vehicle. This interrogates
the control unit fitted to the vehicle and any faults which may be stored in them.
All the possible faults which can be detected by the ABS control unit (J104) and displayed on V.A.G 1552, are listed
below according to the 5-digit fault code.
If faults occur only occasionally or if the fault memory was not erased after rectifying faults, these faults are displayed for a defined period as sporadically occurring faults -SP- page 45-91, Fault recognition of ABS control
unit.
In addition, the fault type may also be indicated in the fault table.
Reference is made in the column Rectifying fault to individual test steps of the electrical test.
Before replacing components indicated as faulty, test the appropriate plug connections, cables and earth connections according to the current flow diagram.
Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault Finding and Fitting Locations binder
After completing repairs, always once again interrogate and then erase the fault memory with the vehicle system
tester V.A.G 1552, and conduct a road test (at a speed of more than 20 km/h).
After conducting the road test, once again interrogate the fault memory.

then proceed as described below:
1. Conduct a road test at a speed of more than 20 km/h.
2. Once again interrogate the fault memory; if no fault is again stored.
3. Continue fault finding without self-diagnosis and work through the electrical test in full

Diagnostic cable V.A.G 1551/3
The control unit is able to transmit a large
number of measured values. These measured
values supply information regarding the operating state of the system or of the sensors connected. In many cases, the measured values
transmitted can be used for assisting fault finding and rectification of faults. As it is not possible to assess all of these measured values at
the same time, they are combined into individual
display groups which can be selected by means
of display group numbers.

Safety
If it is necessary to use test and measuring
equipment during a road test, pay attention to
the following procedure:
The test and measuring equipment should
always be attached to the rear seat and operated from that point by a second person.
If the test and measuring equipment were
operated from the front passenger seat, this
could result in injury to the person occupying that seat in the event of an accident if the

Notes on test table
The socket designations of test box V.A.G 1598 A with adapter V.A.G 1598/33 are identical to the contact designations of the control unit -J104- in the current flow diagram.
Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault Finding and Fitting Locations binder
If the measurements obtained differ from the specifications, carry out the measures indicated in the right-hand part
of the table for rectifying the fault.
Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault Finding and Fitting Locations binder
Conduct continuity tests with adapter cable set V.A.G 1594 A (bridges).
If the measurements obtained differ only slightly from the specifications, then clean the sockets and connectors of
the testers and test cables (with contact spray G 000 700 04) and repeat the test. Before replacing the particular
components, inspect the cables and connections and also repeat the resistance measurement at the component,
particularly if the specifications are less than 10 .

Anti-Lock Brake System
Notes:
Do not remove plugs at the hydraulic unit
until the appropriate brake line is fitted on.
If the plugs are removed sooner from the hydraulic unit, brake fluid may flow out with the
result that the system is no longer properly
filled and bled.
Note:
Do not fully tighten bolts. This makes it easier
to connect the individual brake lines to the hydraulic control unit.
K
Note:
Third bolt attaching hydraulic control unit is concealed by hydraulic pump -V64-.

K If the ABS warning light (K47) -1- does not
go out after the ignition is switched on and
after completion of the test sequence, the
causes of the fault may be:
a - voltage supply is less than 11 V
b - an ABS fault is present
If an ABS fault is present, the anti-lock
brake system remains switched off while
the conventional brake system remains
fully operational.
c - a fault existed at a wheel speed sensor
after last vehicle start (sporadic fault).
If a fault exists at a wheel speed sensor,
the ABS warning light goes out automatically after restarting the vehicle and speed
increased to more than 20 km/h.
d - there is an interruption in the link from

Antilock Brake System
Fault table
Notes:
In view of the fact that the control units are interconnected by a databus line, it is always necessary to initiate the
Automatic test sequence with function 00 at all the control units fitted to the vehicle. When this is done, the control
units fitted to the vehicle together with the possible faults they contain are interrogated.
After this, all the possible faults which can be detected by the ABS control unit (J104) and displayed by V.A.G 1552,
are listed according to the 5-digit fault code.
In addition, a fault type may also appear in the fault table.
Reference is made to individual test steps of the electrical test in the column Rectifying fault.
Before replacing components which have been displayed as faulty, inspect all the corresponding plug connections,
cables and earth connections according to the current flow diagram.
Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault Finding and Fitting Locations binder
After completing the repairs, always once again interrogate the fault memory with the vehicle system tester V.A.G
1552 and erase it, and also conduct a test at more than 20 km/h.
After the road test, once again interrogate the fault memory.
Readout in display of V.A.G 1552 Possible cause of fault
No fault recognized
Rectifying fault
If after completing the repairs no fault recognized appears, the self-diagnosis is ended.
If the ABS does not operate properly despite the readout no fault recognized, then proceed as follows:
1. Conduct a road test at more than 20 km/h.
2. Once again interrogate the fault memory; if there is still no fault stored.

of the fault may be the following:
-a- voltage supply is less than 10 V
-b- there is a fault in the ABS
If there is a fault in the ABS -b-, the antilock
brake system is switched off. The EBD (electronic brake force distribution) function remains active, and in this case the conventional brake system remains fully operational.

longitudinal acceleration sender.
Notes:
In view of the fact that the control units are interlinked over a databus line, always begin fault finding by initiating the
Automatic test sequence with the key function 0 and 0 at all the control units installed in the vehicle. This ensures
that the control units fitted to the vehicle are interrogated for any possible faults.
All the possible faults which can be detected by the ABS control unit (J104) and displayed on V.A.G 1552, are listed
below according to the 5-digit fault code.
The fault type may also additionally appear in the fault table.
Reference is made to individual test steps of the electrical test in the column Rectifying fault.
Before replacing any component which is shown as faulty, test all the corresponding plug connections, cables and
earth connections according to the current flow diagram.
Current Flow Diagrams, Electrical Fault Finding and Fitting Locations binder
After completing repairs, always once again interrogate the fault memory with the vehicle system tester V.A.G 1552
and erase it, and then conduct a road test at a speed of more than 20 km/h.
After completing the road test, once again interrogate the fault memory.

Tasks of function 04 Initiating basic setting
Function 04 Initiating basic setting performs
several tasks in the case of the ESP:
-1- Display group number 001 is required for
bleeding the hydraulic unit.
-2- Display group number 040 is required for
switching off the longitudinal acceleration
sender -G251-, for example for checking the
brake system on a chassis dynamometer
page 45-76.
-3- Display group numbers 060, 063, 066 and
069 are required for the zero adjustment of
the steering angle sender, lateral acceleration sender, brake pressure sender and longitudinal acceleration sender.
-4- Display group number 093 is required for
the driving test page 45-247. It is designed
to check the plausibility of the signals from
the steering angle sender -G85-, lateral acceleration sender -G200-, yaw rate sender
-G200- and the brake pressure sender
-G201-.
-1- The hydraulic unit on vehicles fitted with
the ESP system is bled by selecting the display group number 001. Initiate basic setting
page 45-36.
Basic setting 04, display group number 001, is
only required if at least one chamber of the brake
fluid replenishing reservoir has run completely
empty.
Also initiate the basic setting after repairing any
leaks in the brake system.

Start the engine.
Conduct a short road test on a flat road. Drive
straightahead and not faster than 20 km/h;
pay attention to the following point:
If the steering wheel is not in the centre
position when driving straightahead, correct the position of the steering wheel as
part of a chassis alignment and carry out
the zero adjustment of the steering angle
sender.
-
If the steering wheel is properly centred during the road test, bring the vehicle to a stop
from straightahead running.
Ensure that the position of the steering
wheel is no longer altered. Do not switch off

Removing and installing brake
discs (FN-3)
Notes:
In the case of brake FN-3 brake judder, pulsing or steering wheel vibrations may occur.
The cause of this is an excessive axial runout
in the brake disc - wheel hub system.
To reduce the axial total runout the maximum
and minimum runout of the brake disc and
the wheel hub are marked by ink jet marking.
When dealing with complaints regarding excessive axial total runout, replace nonmarked wheel hubs and brake discs with
marked parts. Assignment
Parts List
If used brake discs with marking and 5-hole
attachment for wheel hub are to be re-installed, mark the position of the brake disc
to the wheel hub before removing the parts.
It is permitted to use the combination of
marked brake disc/unmarked wheel hub, or
unmarked brake disc and marked wheel hub.
Also permissible is the combination on the
left side of the vehicle of components without a marking, and on the right side of the
vehicle components with a marking, or vice
versa.
Note that in the case of the combinations
listed, the reduction of the total runout at the
FN-3 brake is not effective.
Always replace brake discs only on both
sides.
Do not use force to separate brake discs from
the wheel hub; use rust release agents, if
necessary; otherwise risk of damage to the
brake discs.

Notes:
After replacing wheel brake cylinder, brake
carrier and brake shoes, depress brake pedal
firmly once when vehicle stationary so that
the brake shoes are properly seated to match
their operating position.
Use a bleeder bottle which comes into contact only with brake fluid, to extract brake fluid
from the brake fluid reservoir. Brake fluid is
poisonous and must on no account be extracted by sucking it out through a hose with
your mouth!
Before removing a wheel brake cylinder,
brake carrier or separating a brake pipe from
the brake cylinder, insert the brake pedal
depresser, e.g. V.A.G 1238/B.

Notes:
After replacing the brake pads, depress
brake pedal firmly several times when vehicle stationary so that the brake pads are
properly seated according to their position
in operation.
Use a bleeder bottle which comes into contact only with brake fluid for extracting brake
fluid from the brake fluid reservoir. Brake fluid
is toxic and must on no account be extracted
by sucking out through a hose with your
mouth!
Insert the brake pedal depresser, e.g. V.A.G
before removing a brake cylinder or
separating a brake hose from the brake cylinder.
not re-use brake fluid which was in the

It is not normally necessary to adjust the handbrake because of the automatic slack adjuster
of the rear brakes. A re-setting is only necessary if the handbrake cables, the brake calipers
and the brake discs are replaced.
Notes:
The footbrake must be bled and be operating properly.
Always replace self-locking adjusting nut.

With engine running (full vacuum assistance

firmly. When this is done, a clicking must
be audible (brake assist is activated).
If no clicking can be heard, there is a fault in
the brake assist and the brake servo unit must

Notes:
Use only fresh brake fluid complying with the
Standard page 00-8.
When system is open, do not work with compressed air and do not move vehicle.
Special tools, testers and aids required
Brake filling and bleeding appliance, e.g.
ROMESS S15
Brake pedal depressor, e.g. V.A.G 1238/B
Vehicle system tester V.A.G 1552 (only for
models fitted with ABS/EDL)
Warning!
Brake fluid is hygroscopic, in other words it absorbs moisture from the surrounding air and
should therefore always be stored in airtight
sealed containers.
On no account allow brake fluid to come into
contact with fluids containing mineral oil (oil,
petroleum, cleaning products).
Mineral oils damage the plugs and seals of the
brake system.
Do not re-use brake fluid which has been extracted (which was in the system).
Pay attention to disposal regulations!
Brake fluid is poisonous, avoid contact with
skin.
Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact
with the paintwork because of its caustic effect.
If brake fluid spills, flush with plenty of water.
Disposal of brake fluid in accordance with the
applicable environmental regulations.

Special tools, testers and aids required
Hydraulic fluid vessel
Notes:
The oils used in the PAS gears do not contain any harmful substances. These oils can
be disposed of together with old oil from engines and gearboxes.
Dispose of old oils in conformity with the relevant environmental protection regulations.
Old oils (the term old oils refers to used engine and gearbox oils incl. ATF and also mineral hydraulic oils), which are suitable for
processing, must on no account be mixed
with brake fluid, antifreeze agent, synthetic
resin or nitro thinner, chemicals etc.
After emptying, the old parts should be allowed to drip adequately.
When disposing of old parts, pay attention
to legal provisions as slight residual quantities of hydraulic fluid remain in the PAS gear.
------------
------------
K-
Detach pipes -arrows A- from the PAS gear
by pulling off the clips. The clips must not be
re-used.
Hold PAS gear over a collecting vessel and
turn steering pinion several times from full
lock to full lock until no further hydraulic fluid
flows out of the holes.
Holes -arrows B- must not be sealed.

the range of the MIN marking (up to 2 mm
above or the lower marking).
Notes:
If the oil level is above the range indicated,
oil must be extracted.
If the oil level is below the range indicated,
the hydraulic system must be inspected for

Turn steering wheel 10 x from full lock to full
lock.
When doing this, have a second mechanic
observe hydraulic fluid level in the reservoir
and top up if necessary so that no air can be
drawn in. If no air bubbles in the reservoir
flow out of the return-flow pipe, the hydraulic
system is bled. If air bubbles repeatedly occur, it is then necessary to repeat the bleeding operation.

Inspecting PAS system for leaks
Notes:
If metal swarf is found in the hydraulic fluid
and/or in the reservoir, the reservoir, suction
and pressure pipe should be carefully flushed
out and replaced, if necessary.
The PAS system has to be inspected for
leaks after carrying out removal and installation work and if there is a loss of hydraulic
fluid in the reservoir.
-
Start engine.
Turn steering wheel alternately to full lock
and hold tight for a short time.
This builds up the maximum possible pressure.
-
Inspect all hose and pipe connections for
tight fit and leaks.
If leaks are present, retighten hose or pipe
connection to the specified maximum tightening torques or replace seal or pipe.
Inspect hoses and pipes for leaks. If leaks
are present, replace the relevant hose or
pipe.
Inspect hydraulic pump for leaks. If leaks are
present, replace hydraulic pump.
Inspect hydraulic fluid reservoir for leaks. If
leaks are present, replace reservoir.
Inspect hydraulic fluid level and top up if necessary page 48-26.
Note:
If a loss of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir occurs
repeatedly and an intensive inspection has been
carried out several times of the hoses and pipes
and also their connections, the hydraulic pump
and the reservoir, the PAS gear should be removed and inspected.

Notes:
No provision is made for repairing the hydraulic pump. If a complaint exists, carry out
the pressure and leaktightness test in order
to determine the cause. If a fault exists, replace the hydraulic pump.
Pumps supplied as replacement parts are
not filled with oil. For this reason, it is essential to fill the pump with hydraulic oil G 002
000 and to rotate it by hand before it is installed; if this is not done, noise problems
may occur when driving or the pump may be
damaged.
Grade of oil: central hydraulic oil G 002 000
Quantity of oil in system: 0.7 ... 0.9 ltr.
Do not remove replacement parts from their
wrapping until just before installing.
Use only genuine wrapped parts.
Do not re-use drained hydraulic oil.
Always replace seals.
Before removing the ribbed V-belt, mark the
direction of running. If a used belt is fitted on
again to run in the opposite direction, it may
be destroyed. When installing the belt, ensure it is correctly located in the belt pulleys.
Disposal page 48-45.
Version and attachment of hydraulic pump
as well as bracket may differ from the illustration depending on engine version and
whether vehicle is equipped with air conditioning or not.
Mark installation position of belt pulley before removing.
If the belt pulley of the hydraulic pump is installed in the opposite direction, this will result in an offset to the other belt pulleys. The
ribbed V-belt will be damaged as a result of
this offset running.

Disposing of hydraulic pump
Special tools, testers and aids required
Notes:
The oils used in hydraulic pumps do not contain any harmful substances. Such oils can
be disposed of together with old oil from engines and gearboxes.
Dispose of old oils in accordance with applicable environmental protection regulations.
Old oils (the term old oils refer to used engine and gearbox oils incl. ATF as well as
mineral hydraulic oils) which are suitable for
reprocessing, must on no account be mixed
with brake fluid, antifreeze agent, synthetic
resin on nitro-thinners, chemicals etc.
After emptying, the old parts must be allowed to drain adequately by dripping.
When disposing of old parts, pay attention
to the legal regulations as slight quantities of
hydraulic oil still remain in the hydraulic
pump.
