Prepare charge air system tester -V.A.G 1687- as follows:  
– Pull pressure control valve -2- upwards, unscrew it com‐  
pletely, and close valves -3- and -4-.  
– Connect charge air system tester -V.A.G 1687- to com‐  
pressed air -1- via commercial adapter.  
Note  
If there is water in the inspection glass -6-, drain it via the  
drain plug.  
The test pressure must not exceed 0.2 bar. Otherwise there  
is a risk of damage to the engine.  
– Open valve -3-.  
– Adjust pressure to 0.2 bar with pressure control valve -2-.  
– Open valve -4- and wait until test circuit is full. If necessary,  
adjust pressure to 0.2 bar.  
– Check charge air system for leaks by listening, touching,  
with commercially available leak detector spray or using ul‐  
trasonic tester -V.A.G 1842-.  
Note  
A small amount of air escapes through the valves and enters  
the engine. Therefore a holding pressure test is not possible.  
Ultrasonic tester -V.A.G 1842- ⇒ operating instructions  
Before removing the adapters, depressurise the test circuit  
by detaching the hose coupling.  
Installing  
Assemble in reverse order of dismantling.
