=> Page 01-116

Notes on display zones 1 and 2:

    Low values indicate that the engine is running too rich and therefore the Lambda regulation is leaning the mixture.

  • ◆ High values indicate that the engine is running too lean and therefore the Lambda regulation enriches the mixture.
  • ◆ add = additive - The effects of the fault (e.g. unmetered air) will reduce as the engine speed increases. The injection period will be modified by a fixed amount for additive learnt values. This amount is not dependent upon the basic injection period.
  • ◆ mul = multiplicative - The effects of the fault (e.g. faulty injector) will increase as the engine speed increases. A multiplicative learnt value is a proportional change to the injection period. This change is dependent on the basic injection period.

Evaluating display group 32, display zones 1 and 2 - Lambda learnt values before catalyst

Possible fault cause

Fault elimination

Low Lambda learnt values

- Low learnt values at idling but with normal learnt values at part throttle: possible oil dilution (high level of fuel in oil)

- Disappears after motorway drive or oil change

- Injector leaking

- Check injector

- Activated charcoal filter solenoid valve 1 permanently open

- Check activated charcoal filter solenoid valve 1 => Page 01-60 , Final control diagnosis

- Lambda probe heating defective or Lambda probe soiled

- Check Lambda probe heating

Appears on display

Possible fault cause

Fault elimination

High Lambda learnt values

- High learnt values at idling speed, not so high learnt values at part throttle: possible unmetered air in area of intake manifold

- Check intake air system for leaks

- Injector blocked

- Check injectors

- Fuel pressure too low

- Check fuel pressure regulator and holding pressure => Page 24-83

- Lambda probe heating defective or Lambda probe soiled

- Check Lambda probe heating

- Unmetered air at exhaust manifold gasket

- Check exhaust system for leaks:

Notes on display zone 1:

  • ◆ The display must fluctuate around 0.0 %. If constant 0.0 % is displayed, the Lambda regulation has switched from regulation to control, because there is a fault in the Lambda regulation. Interrogate fault memory => Page 01-20 , Interrogating and erasing fault memory.

Notes on display zone 2:

  • ◆ The voltage signal "rich mixture (low level of residual oxygen)" is below 1.5 V.
  • ◆ The voltage signal "lean mixture (high level of residual oxygen)" is above 1.5 V.

Outside tolerance range

- Minus range: Mixture too rich, Lambda control weakens mixture
- Positive range: Mixture too lean, Lambda control enriches mixture

- Wait 30 seconds until the display has stabilised

- Injector defective
