Mechanical air recirculation valve,
checking


Note:

The mechanical air recirculation valve is
upstream of the exhaust turbocharger. It is
opened via vacuum by the recirculating valve
for turbocharger -N249- under conditions of
overrun, idling and partial load. This reduces
the charge pressure upstream of the throttle
valve. A high turbocharger speed is thus
maintained.
Check the air recirculation valve if the engine is
not producing full power, or jerking when the
throttle is opened and closed.

Test sequence

Note:
The Charge Air Pressure sensor -G31- and the
wiring connections are monitored by the engine
control module.

- Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory
of engine control module.
If a DTC relating to the Charge Air Pressure
sensor -G31- is displayed:

Checking power supply

- Disconnect connector -arrow- on charge pressure sender.
