4-cyl. injection engine (1.8 and 2.0 l engine, chain drive) - Edition 08.2018  
The linkage -A- should start to move at a pressure of approx.  
300 mbar and be at its limit stop at a pressure of approx.  
700 mbar.  
The stroke of the rod is approx. 10 mm.  
Note  
If no pressure can be built up using hand vacuum pump - VAS  
6213- , or if the pressure drops immediately again, check hand  
vacuum pump - VAS 6213- and connecting hoses for leaks. If no  
fault is found: renew vacuum unit ⇒ page 443 .

Note  
Non-adjustable vacuum units are fitted in some vehicles.  
The vacuum unit must be adjusted only if the linkage has been  
loosened.  
Adjustment is carried out when turbocharger is removed.  
– Pull hose -arrow- from vacuum unit on turbocharger.  
– Detach locking plate above turbocharger linkage.

– Pre-adjust bypass flap -1- above rod of vacuum unit -arrow-,  
so that the bypass flap can just be turned by hand.  
– Tighten lock nut hand-tight.  
– Connect up hand-operated vacuum pump - VAS 6213- , tur‐  
bocharger tester - V.A.G 1397A- (connection II) and pressure  
control valve - VAS 6342- as shown in illustration.  
– Close pressure control valve - VAS 6342- at lever -1-.  
– Move slide ring -1- on hand vacuum pump - VAS 6213- to po‐  
sition -B- for “pressure”.  
– Switch on turbocharger tester - V.A.G 1397A- and set sliding  
switch to position II.

4-cyl. injection engine (1.8 and 2.0 l engine, chain drive) - Edition 08.2018  
– Secure universal dial gauge bracket - VW 387- to turbocharger  
-arrows-.  
– Secure dial gauge - VAS 6341/1- with dial gauge extension,  
30 mm - VAS 6341/3- and flat pickup - VAS 6341/4- to uni‐  
versal dial gauge bracket - VW 387- .  
– With pressure at 0 bar, set dial gauge - VAS 6341/1- to 1 mm  
preload.  
– Turn dial of dial gauge - VAS 6341/1- to 0.  
– Make sure that dial gauge can move freely.  
– Operate hand vacuum pump - VAS 6213- until turbocharger  
tester - V.A.G 1397A- indicates 460 +/- 5 mbar.  
– The dial gauge must indicate between 4.1 mm and 4.3 mm;  
otherwise, turn rod of vacuum unit until the value is indicated.  
– Tighten lock nut hand-tight.  
– Repeat adjustment.  
Note  
The values in mm refer to the read value (includes 1 mm preten‐  
sion).  
– Vent system via pressure control valve - VAS 6342- so that  
pressure reading drops to 0 mbar.  
– Set dial gauge - VAS 6341/1- to 0.  
Note  
The following measurements must be performed in continuous  
sequence. Do not allow the pressure to drop to 0 between meas‐  
urements.  
– Operate hand vacuum pump - VAS 6213- until turbocharger  
tester - V.A.G 1397A- indicates 460 +/- 5 mbar.  
– Read off and note value indicated on dial gauge - VAS  
6341/1- .  
– Actuate hand vacuum pump - VAS 6213- until turbocharger  
tester - V.A.G 1397A- indicates 650 mbar to 700 mbar.  
– Vent system via pressure control valve - VAS 6342- so that  
pressure reading drops to 460 +/- 5 mbar.  
– Read off and note value indicated on dial gauge - VAS  
6341/1- .  
– Add values 1 and 2 together and divide by 2.  
– The result (mean value) should be 5 +/- 0.25 mm.  
– Correct setting if the result (average) is not 5 +/- 0.25 mm,  
tighten lock nut hand-tight and repeat measurement.  
– If the result (mean value) is 5 +/- -0.25 mm, tighten the lock  
nut to 9 Nm and secure with sealing paint.
