During crankshaft rotation

|
During crankshaft rotation
|
The value indicates the current air mass passing the
mass air flow sensor
for each induction (combustion) and has accordingly been supplied by 1: the throttle, 2: charge air control.
|
The value should always (sometimes after a slight delay) be the same as the requested value. In the case of a lower value the engine will not provide the requested torque.

|
2000
|
During crankshaft rotation
|
It is
estimated
that this air flow passes through the engine per induction (combustion). It is computed on the basis of: intake pressure, intake air temperature and engine rpm.
|
The value should normally (sometimes after a slight delay) be the same as that passing through the mass air flow sensor per induction (combustion). In the case of major variation, the mass air flow sensor is not measuring the mass air flow correctly.

|

|
During crankshaft rotation
|
The value shows the
variation
between
actual
and
computed
mass air flow and is consequently an indication of how accurately the mass air flow sensor's value coincides with the mass air flow supplied to the engine. A negative value indicates that the mass air flow sensor is inaccurate and shows too small a mass air flow.
|
The value should be within +/- 15%.
Note: The value is computed in the diagnostic tool and is strongly damped. In connection with load changes, however, major variations are perfectly normal. Readings should be taken only when the value is stable and the load constant. When taking readings at idling speed the evap canister purge valve must be disconnected and replaced by a test lamp.
Fault 1: Vacuum leakage at idling speed. 2: Leakage between compressor and throttle body under partial load. 3: Faulty mass air flow sensor.

Purge Adaptation
|
%
|
-25
|
25
|
During crankshaft rotation
|
Purging system's correction of fuel quantity. During purging, adaptation is adjusted so that the closed loop system oscillates round 0%. A negative value indicates that the purge gases contain a richer mixture than 14.7:1, a positive value indicates a leaner mixture than 14.7:1.
|
Adaptation is extremely useful for checking fuel faults: reset additive and multiplicative adaptation, unplug the purge valve's connector and connect the test lamp. When the lamp flashes, adaptation shows the entire fuel fault. A maximum deviation of 15% from 0 is OK.
If you cannot localize the fuel fault you can observe adaptation while you plug various hoses, squirt starting spray or the like on suspected leakage points, change the mass air flow sensor or fuel pressure regulator. Adaptation goes towards 0 when you have found the fault.

Additive Adaptation

|
When crankshaft is stationary or rotating
|
Additive adaptation's correction of the fuel quantity. Adaptation takes place at idling speed and corrects for vacuum leaks. During adaptation the value is adjusted so that the closed loop control system oscillates round 0%.
|
If multiplicative adaptation shows a neutral value and additive adaptation shows a wide deviation, certain conclusions can be drawn: a positive value indicates a vacuum leak and a negative value internal leakage in the purge valve. Also check the fuel pressure regulator's response to changes in pressure.
See purging adaptation for final checking of work performed.

Multiplicative Adaptation

When crankshaft is stationary or rotating

Multiplicative adaptation's correction of the fuel quantity. Adaptation takes place under partial load and corrects for differences (in per cent) between the measured air quantity and the quantity of injected fuel. During adaptation the value is adjusted so that closed loop control oscillates round 0%.
|
If there is wide deviation from the neutral value, check the fuel pressure, pressure response and flow capacity. A negative value may indicate leakage between compressor and throttle body. Compare with another mass air flow sensor.

Shows how much charge air control must correct the PWM ratio to the charge air control valve so that the current air mass per combustion will reach the requested. Adaptation is very slow.
|
A large positive deviation indicates low compressor capacity and can be caused by 1: Defective control valve, 2: Leak between compressor and throttle body, 3. blocked air cleaner, 4: Defective turbo. A large negative deviation can be caused by point 1 or 4.

When idle speed control is active the value should oscillate round 0. Too low an engine speed is improbable as the throttle goes into limp-home mode if anything prevents the throttle valve from opening. Too high an engine speed is due to leakage.

During crankshaft rotation
|
The value shows how large a proportion of the
engine variant's
maximum
permitted
torque is
used
at the current engine rpm.
|
At the correct octane rating, normal temperature and air pressure (manual gearbox: 2nd gear or higher), values above 85% will generally be obtained as soon as engine speed rises above 2000 rpm during full-throttle acceleration. A lower value may be because the current air mass does not correspond with that requested, which may be due to a fault in charge air control or severe knocking. Note: the value is calculated in the diagnostics instrument and is heavily damped.

When crankshaft is stationary or rotating

The following values show which part of the air mass control that requests air mass per combustion from the throttle and charge air control. Only
one
value at a time is ON.
|
If low engine torque is suspected,
always
make sure first that the
current
air mass corresponds with the
requested
(that the
air supply
and
charge air control
are
OK
). Only
then
can the following be used to see what is limiting the system's
air mass request
.

Lambda sensor voltage must have left the band between 0.4 V and 0.6 V before closed loop control may be activated. This is a sign that the sensor is warm. Shows ON before the voltage has left the voltage band.

The sensor is high-ohmic and "suspended" in 0.47 V from the control module. When the sensor is warm it produces a voltage which is dependent on the mixture ratio. The sensor is then low-ohmic and takes over control. If an open circuit or sensor fault occurs this will not happen and a diagnostic trouble code will be generated.
