Intake Manifold Tuning (IMT) function, 
checking
 
     
Note:  
     The following test should only be conducted if 
performance deficiencies occur. 
     
-  Increase engine rpm clearly above 4500 RPM.
     
   Intake manifold tuning vacuum solenoid must be 
actuated (solenoid is located on intake manifold, 
left-front, under the ignition coils). 
      If the vacuum solenoid is not actuated:  
     
-  Check intake manifold tuning valve -N156- 
(change-over valve)   page 24
-156
 . 
     
-  Check vacuum system for leaks   page 24
-

 . 
     
-  Check that vacuum lines are correctly installed, 
do not leak and are not blocked. 
     
-  Check change-over mechanism for ease of 
movement (activate change-over linkage by 
hand).

Vacuum system, checking for leaks
 
     
-  Let engine run 2 to 3 minutes at idle (for vacuum 
to build up). 
     
-  Switch ignition off.
     
-  Remove 2-pin connector from intake manifold 
tuning valve -N156- (change-over valve). 
    
-  Connect jumper wire (from VAG1594) from one terminal of -N156- to 
engine ground. 
-  Use VAG1248/3A remote, adapter wire VAG1348/3-2 and auxiliary 
wire to connect second terminal of -N156- to B+. 
-  Activate intake manifold tuning valve -N156-, using remote control 
VAG1348/3A, for approx. 2 to 3 min. 
   The vacuum solenoid must remain actuated during this time.
