Remove
1.Position drain tray to collect coolant spillage.
2.Disconnect multiplug from coolant sensor.
3.Remove sensor from thermostat housing.
4.Remove and discard copper washer.
Refit
5.Fit a new copper washer.
6.Fit sensor and tigten securely.
7.Top-up cooling system.
8.Run engine, check for water leaks around
sensor.DEPRESSURISING FUEL SYSTEM
WARNING: Under normal operating
conditions the Multiport fuel injection
system is pressurised by a high pressure
fuel pump, operating at up to 2.3 to 2.5 bar When
engine is stationary pressure is maintained within
system. To prevent pressurised fuel escaping and
to avoid personal injury it is necessary to
depressurise multiport fuel injection system
before any service operations are carried out.
If vehicle has not been run there will be a small
amount of residual pressure in fuel line. The
depressurising procedure must still be carried out
before disconnecting any component within the
fuel system.
The spilling of fuel is unavoidable during this
operation. Ensure that all necessary precautions
are taken to prevent fire and explosion.
1.Remove fuel pump relay module.
See
Multiport Fuel Injection Relays
2.Start and run engine.
3.When sufficient fuel has been used to cause fuel
line pressure to drop, injectors will become
inoperative, resulting in engine stall. Switch off
ignition.
4.Disconnect battery negative lead.
NOTE: Fuel at low pressure will remain in
system. To remove low pressure fuel,
place absorbent cloth around fuel feed
hose at fuel rail.
5.Disconnect either:
a) Nut and olive at fuel rail
OR
b) Hose at inlet end of fuel filter.
Refit
6.Refit fuel feed hose.
7.Refit fuel pump relay module, reconnect battery.
8.Crank engine (engine will fire in approximately 6
to 8 seconds).

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ENGINE COOLING
Description
The Tdi engine uses a pressurized cooling system
and cross flow radiator which is supplied from a
separate header tank. The radiator assembly is in
three sections. The largest section is for engine
coolant and the other two sections which are cast in
aluminium, are the engine oil cooler and the turbo
charger intercooler.
A belt driven viscous fan and centrifugal water pump
is located in the front of the cylinder block. Hot coolant
is supplied to the heater through hoses. Two small
diameter air purge hoses connect the top of the
radiator and cylinder head water gallery, to the header
tank.
Coolant circulation (engine cold)
1. Cross flow radiator
2. Header tank
3. Viscous fan
4. Heater hoses
5. By pass hose and engine thermostat
6. Air purge hoses
7. Coolant pumpCOOLANT CIRCULATION
Operation
When the engine is started from cold the thermostat
prevents any coolant circulation through the radiator
by closing off the top hose. During the engine warm
up period, the water pump, pumps coolant towards
the rear of the cylinder block around each of the
cylinders. Coolant as it is heated rises through ports in
the cylinder block and head gasket, into the cylinder
head.The coolant flows forwards to the thermostat,
by-pass port and radiator top hose connection.
Start from cold (thermostat closed)
While the thermostat is closed, coolant circulates
around the cylinder block and cylinder head via the
by-pass.
Engine warm (thermostat open)
When the engine reaches normal running temperature
the thermostat closes off the by-pass and opens the
flow to the top of the radiator.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION VISCOUS FAN
Description
The viscous drive unit for the engine cooling fan,
provides a means of controlling the speed of the fan
relative to the running temperature of the engine. The
viscous unit is a type of fluid coupling, which drives
the fan blades through the medium of a special
'silicone fluid' injected into the unit during
manufacture.
1. Drive in from water pump spindle
2. Drive out to fan blades
3. Bi-metalOperation
The viscous unit consists of two principal components:
An inner member 1 which is secured to water pump
spindle and is driven by the fan belt.
An outer member 2 which has the fan blades
attached, houses the working parts and is driven
through the medium of the viscous fluid.
The inner and outer members have interlocking
annular grooves machined in each, with a small
running clearance 3 to allow the silicone fluid to
circulate through the valve plate 4.
The unit also contains a valve 5 which is controlled by
an external bi-metal thermostat 6.
Starting engine from cold
During the time the engine is at rest the silicone fluid
drains down, half filling chambers A and B. Thus when
the engine is first started sufficient fluid is present in
chamber A to provide a positive drive between the
members, as is evident by the initial noise of the fan.
However within a very short period of time, after
starting the engine, the fan speed and noise will
decline indicating that the fluid is being centrifuged
into chamber B (as seen in RR3757M) causing the
drive to slip.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ENGINE COOLING
Description
The V8i engine uses a pressurised cooling system
and cross flow radiator which is supplied from a
separate header tank. The coolant radiator also
incorporates a section at the left hand end for cooling
the transmission oil and a section at the other end for
cooling the engine oil.The belt driven viscous fan and centrifugal water
pump is located in the engine front cover with ports for
circulation of coolant to both banks of cylinders and
cylinder heads. Coolant returns to the top of the
radiator via ports in the inlet manifold where the
thermostat is mounted horizontally.
Coolant also circulates through the vehicle heating
system and is used to heat air entering the inlet
manifold plenum chamber.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION COOLANT CIRCULATION
Operation
When the engine is started from cold the thermostat
prevents any coolant circulation through the radiator
by closing off the top hose. During the engine warm
up period, the water pump, pumps coolant around the
cylinders to the rear of the cylinder block along the
main galleries in both cylinder banks. At the rear of
the cylinder block the coolant rises through a large
port in each cylinder head/block joint face, and then
flows forward to connect with ports at the front of the
inlet manifold. From the manifold the coolant is carried
by an external pipe to the heater unit and from the
heater through another external pipe to the pump
inlet.The coolant circulation through the cylinder block and
heads, does not change when normal running
temperature is reached and the thermostat opens. But
with the thermostat open, coolant flows through the
top hose to the radiator where it is cooled and drawn
back into the pump via the bottom hose.
