9.1 Vehicles with V12 TDI Engine Assembly Overview
Vane pump is not designed to be serviced. If there are customer
complaints, the cause must be determined using a pressure and
leak test. If there is a malfunction, replace the vane pump.
Note
♦
If power steering fluid is low in reservoir, check steering system for leaks.
♦
If there are leaks in the area of the line connections, the lines/connections must first be inspected for leaks,
tightened as necessary and wiped dry.
♦
Pump is delivered without oil. Therefore, hydraulic oil must be filled before installation and turned by hand.
Otherwise, noises when driving or damage to pump may occur.
