TIP: 

It is necessary to adjust the diaphragm only if it has been removed.

• Turbocharger removed.

-- Remove hose -arrow- from vacuum diaphragm on turbocharger.

TIP: 

The mm specifications apply to the value read out (includes 1 mm pre-load).

-- Secure the :VAS6341/1  with the :VAS6341/3  and :VAS6341/4  to the :VW387  .

-- Set the :VAS6341/1  to 1 mm tension at 0 bar.

-- Turn the :VAS6341/1  display to 0.

-- Check the dial gauge for ease of movement.

-- Operate the :VAS6213  until the :VAG1397B  displays 460 ± 5 mbar (6.67 ± 0.07 psi).

-- 4.1 mm to 4.3 mm must appear in the dial gauge; if not, turn the knurled nut until the value is displayed.

-- Tighten the lock nut hand-tight.

-- Repeat the measurement.

-- Reduce pressure to 0 mbar via :VAS6342  .

-- Set the : VAS6341/1  to 0.

TIP: 

The following measurements must be performed in one sequence. In the meantime, the pressure must not dissipate to 0.

-- Operate the :VAS6213  until the :VAG1397B  displays 460 ± 5 mbar 460 ± 5 mbar (6.67 ± 0.07 psi).

-- Read and note the value on the :VAS6341/1  .

-- Operate the :VAS6213  until the :VAG1397B  displays 650 mbar to 700 mbar (9.42 psi to 10.15 psi).

-- Reduce the pressure to 460 ± 5 mbar (6.67 ± 0.07 psi) via :VAS6342  .

-- Read and note the value on the :VAS6341/1  .

-- Add value 1 and 2 together and divide by two.

-- The result (mean value) must be 5 ± 0.25 mm.

-- If the result (mean value) is not 5 ± 0.25 mm, correct the adjustment, tighten the lock nut by hand and repeat the measurement.

-- If the result (average) is 5 ± 0.25 mm, tighten the lock nut and secure with sealing wax. Refer to parts information for the correct sealing wax.

-- Secure the locking plate -1- over vacuum diaphragm linkage.
