Charge pressure leak test with VAG
1687


Intake system, checking for leaks using VAG
1687 Diagnostic Tool
Diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) related to fuel
trim, charge pressure or mass air flow (MAF)
may be caused by:

Leaking (worn/torn) intake hoses during charge
conditions
Incorrectly torqued or improperly placed clamps
on intake hoses etc. causing leaks during
charge conditions

Check the charge air pressure system using the VAG 1687 Charge air
system tester.
Special tool VAG 1687 Charge air system tester preliminary set-up

- Back off pressure regulator knob -2- of VAG 1687 fully to protect gauge
when shop air supply is applied to assembly.
