B - Oxygen sensor, bank 2
1 - Select system test.
2 - Select ’Request large lift’.
If "Valve diagnosis not ready" appears, a fault may have been
stored.
1. Erase the fault memory.
3 - Activate the system test with the key F8 immediately
before acceleration with wide-open throttle.
The message "Drive link active" then appears.
4 - Perform acceleration with wide-open throttle in 2nd
gear, until "Valve lift diagnosis complete" appears.
Note!
♦If a fault is detected, it is only recorded in the fault memory after
6,000 ignitions (at idling speed approx. 3 minutes waiting time).
♦It is important to observe the oxygen sensor during acceleration
with wide-open throttle or to record its behaviour with the data
logger.
♦If misfires are stored, see Troubleshooting misfires.
Perform system test for small lift
Warning!
During the system test for small lift, the valves remain at small lift,
regardless of the type of driving. Faulty switching conditions can be
detected by rough running, just like with misfire detection. If a valve
is not switched to small lift, the fault type ’under limit’ is recorded.
Several cylinders may be stored as faulty, although only 1 valve on
one cylinder is faulty.
In order to guarantee safety during repairs, the flat-base tappets of
the inlet valves of the entire cylinder bank should be replaced if a
fault occurs.
A faulty flat-base tappet can be detected because the oxygen sen-
sor FR for this cylinder bank enriches the mixture (FR > 1) during
