Rules of cleanliness
CAUTION!
Whenever carrying out work on the fuel

supply and fuel injection systems, carefully
observe the following five rules of
cleanliness.
1 - Thoroughly clean fuel system line and hose

connections and the surrounding area before
disconnecting.
2 - Place removed components on a clean

surface and cover. Use plastic sheeting or paper.
Do not use fluffy rags that could leave lint!
3 - Carefully cover over or seal any components

that have been opened if repairs are not carried
out immediately.
4 - Install only clean parts:
Do not remove replacement parts from the

packaging until immediately before they are to
be installed.
Do not use parts that have been stored without

packaging (e.g. in toolboxes, etc.).
5 - When the fuel system is opened:
Avoid working with compressed air whenever

possible.
Avoid moving the vehicle if possible.
20-3
Safety precautions
WARNING!
When removing and installing the fuel pump

or fuel level sensor from a filled or partially
filled fuel tank:
BEFORE beginning repairs, the suction pipe

of an exhaust extraction system must be
located near the fuel tank opening so that
escaping fuel vapors can be immediately
carried away.
If no exhaust extraction system is available,

a radial fan (motor located outside airflow)
with volume of at least 15 m3/hr (9 cfm) may
be used.
Wear fuel-resistant gloves whenever working

with open parts of the fuel system.
Be sure the ignition is switched OFF, when:
Disconnecting fuel injection system wiring
Connecting or disconnecting test equipment

leads
BEFORE cranking the engine at starting RPM
(such as for compression testing) disable the

ignition and fuel injection systems:
Disconnect the ignition coil power output

stage.
Disconnect harness connectors from all fuel

injectors.
After the work is completed, erase

Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) memory.
20-4
CAUTION!
BEFORE disconnecting the battery:
Stop the engine.
Be sure the ignition is switched OFF (also

applies when connecting the battery). Failure
to do so may damage the Engine Control
Module (ECM).
Be sure of the proper radio code (for vehicles

equipped with coded anti-theft radio).
Be sure the battery negative (-) cable is

disconnected, when:
Working on the electrical system
Resistance (spot) welding or electric arc

welding anywhere on the vehicle.
When connecting and disconnecting

electrical test equipment (LED voltage tester,
multimeter, etc.):
Be sure the ignition is switched OFF.
Use correct adapters from the VW 1594
connector test kit.

Flange and fuel level sensor, removing

and installing
Observe safety measures page 20-3
Pay attention to rules of cleanliness page

20-2 .
WARNING!
Fire hazard. DO NOT smoke or work near

heaters or have anything in the area that can
ignite fuel!
- Switch ignition on.
- Observe fuel gauge.
CAUTION!
The fuel tank should not be more than 2/3

full. Empty fuel tank, if necessary, using an
approved fuel cart.
Determine correct radio anti-theft coding

before disconnecting the battery.
Removing
- Disconnect battery Ground (GND) strap.
- Remove cover for fuel pump module flange

(under luggage compartment trim).
- Disconnect harness connector for fuel level

sensor and fuel pump.
20-6
- Detach blue return line and feed line.

- Use special tool 3217 to loosen sealing ring.
- Carefully pull flange out and detach.
- Unclip fuel level sensor and remove.
Installing
- Installation is in reverse order of removal.
_________________________________________________________
Front-wheel-drive vehicles:
- Fuel level sensor wiring must be routed between return line and fuel
tank housing.
All-wheel-drive vehicles:
- Fuel level sensor wiring must be routed between line of fuel transfer
pump and fuel tank housing.
_________________________________________________________
- When installing, make sure that arrows are aligned.

Note different alignment arrows for FRONT-wheel-drive and
QUATTRO

Accelerator pedal cable, adjusting
CAUTION!
The accelerator pedal cable is easily

damaged (kinked) and therefore must be
handled carefully.
A single slight kink can lead to cable failure

- Depress accelerator pedal to wide open throttle

position.
Note:
A second person is required for this step.
Vehicles with manual transmission
- Pull cable sleeve away from cam at throttle body

until throttle valve has opened fully, then hold
tight in this position.
Vehicles with automatic transmission
- Pull cable sleeve back toward wide open throttle

position until throttle valve is fully open and
kickdown switch is actuated (clicks), then hold
tight in this position.
