Technical Service Bulletin Required one-time use items are subject to change and may not be listed. When diagnosing a vehicle with the DTC P040100, P2002, or P240F perform the following: 1. Remove the EGR filter from the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and swipe the inside of the exhaust pipe at the EGR filter connection point using a clean cloth or your finger. Figure 1. Checking for carbon. Figure 2. Verifying that there is carbon. 2. If your finger or the cloth comes out with black soot: • Replace the DPF & EGR filter together. The engine must be running correctly with no faults stored to perform the next steps. • Read out 01 ECM control module OBD Basic Settings block 67 with engine at idle and at operating temperature. Select activate and monitor field 3 when EGR is in OFF position. • If the MAF actual value is equal to or greater than 540 mg/h, proceed to smoke testing below (there is likely a leak within the intake system). • If the value is less than 540 mg/h, proceed to the inspection of the snow flap and air filter (TSB attachment). There is no need to smoke test. • Smoke test the charge air system for leaks if MAF value is 540 or great (see procedure below). © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. Page 2 of 10 All rights reserved.

Technical Service Bulletin Tip: Proper intake airflow is essential for the longevity of the DPF. If a vehicle is found to have a damaged DPF, it is advised to inspect the condition of the intake air filter and verify resting position of the warm air valve (after the vehicle has cooled, see attachment). If the air filter is dirty, advise replacement. If there is no soot on your finger or the cloth, continue with GFF diagnostics, this bulletin does not apply. Note: When replacing the DPF for the fault P0401, P2002, or P240F it is important to replace both the DPF and the EGR filter together, as soot accumulation in the EGR filter is undesired. It is NOT necessary to replace any other components for this fault (i.e. NOx Storage Catalyst, Sulfur Catalyst, Exhaust Flap, EGR Cooler). These components should be reinstalled in the vehicle with the new DPF and EGR filter. If the particulate filter was replaced, an adaptation must be performed in Guided Functions. Note: Vehicles with a front single assembly exhaust (one piece DPF/NOx Cat.) will require additional components. See parts table below. If the car has already had the DPF replaced once, and now has the two-piece DPF/Nox Cat., there is no need for the extra parts. Note: © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. Page 3 of 10 All rights reserved.

Technical Service Bulletin Proper intake airflow is essential for the longevity of the DPF. If a vehicle is found to have a damaged DPF, it is advised to inspect the condition of the intake air filter and verify the resting position of the warm air valve (after the vehicle has cooled) as outlined in “Air Filter, Cleaning Housing and Replacing Filter Element” section of the Elsa Repair Manual. Replace the warm air valve (snow flap) if necessary. Additionally, any leaks within the intake air system will cause additional stress to the DPF and a reduction in engine performance. It is advised to reference Charge Air System Testing 1. The charge air pressure system can be checked using the VAG 1687. Charge air system tester along with the VAG1687/10 adapter as follows: 2. Special tool VAG 1687 Charge air system tester, preliminary set-up • Back off pressure regulator knob -2- of VAG 1687 fully to protect gauge when shop air supply is applied to the assembly. • Close valve -3- before gauge. • Close valve -4- after gauge. • Shop air supply line will later be attached to the inlet of VAG 1687. • Remove the “female” fitting from the tester (arrow) and install an appropriate “male” air fitting that will connect to your shop air supply line (See Note below). Note: Use only approved air fittings to adapt shop air supply line to VAG 1687 tester. © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. Page 4 of 10 All rights reserved.

Technical Service Bulletin 3. Special tool VAG 1687/10 pressure adapter, installing. • Separate intake hose from the Mass Airflow Sensor assembly (MAF). • Insert VAG 1687/10 pressure adapter in intake hose -black arrow- using existing clamp (as shown). • Remove crankcase ventilation valve or tube from intake hose at -white arrow-. • Plug hose with appropriate metal plug and hose clamps supplied with VAG 1687 special tool kit at -white arrow-. Note: To help find small leaks, BEFORE pressurizing the system, fill system with smoke using special tool KLI9210 and adapter KLI9210/50 as outlined in this bulletin. An Ultrasonic detector may also be used to detect extremely small leaks where smoke may not be visible. Special tool KLI9210 (EVAP system leak detector) • Install optional fitting KLI 9210/50 on hose of special tool KLI9210. • Connect KLI9210 to VAG 1687/1 adapter (KLI 9210 is shown attached to VAG1687/1 at arrow on 1.8L Turbo). Special tool KLI9210 (EVAP system leak detector) • Install optional fitting KLI 9210/50 on hose of special tool KLI9210. • Connect KLI9210 to VAG 1687/1 adapter (KLI 9210 is shown attached to VAG1687/1 at the arrow on 1.8L Turbo). © 2023 Audi of America, Inc.

Technical Service Bulletin Special tool KLI9210 (EVAP system leak detector), preliminary set-up: • Setup KLI 9210 as described in the user manual regarding selftest and output pressure. • Connect the smoke generator leads to the vehicle battery. • Turn the valve to test (black arrow). • Press the smoke generator button to fill the system with smoke (see instructions printed on the tester). • Check for escaping smoke for two minutes. Tip: Smoke may escape from crankcase hose or oil fill hole. This is normal. With system filled with smoke: • Remove smoke generator hose and connect VAG 1687 quickly to prevent smoke from leaking out. • Connect VAG 1687 quickly to prevent smoke from leaking out. Special tool VAG 1687 connecting to pressure adapter 1687/10 • VAG 1687 is shown connected to VAG 1687/10 (black arrow). • Shop air supply connected to VAG 1687 at (white arrow). • Perform pressure test.

Technical Service Bulletin • Open valve -3- between regulator valve and gauge. • Adjust test pressure up to 1.0 bar (see Note below) by turning the regulator valve -2-. Note: DO NOT pressurize the system above 1.0 bar. Doing so may force oil into the intake system which can damage the engine. • Slowly open outlet valve -4- (after gauge) to test hose connections. • Observe the pressure gauge for a drop in pressure. Tip: Some pressure will be lost past the throttle plate. If a smoke generator was used to fill the system with smoke: • Check for smoke escaping from intake connections. Tip: An Ultrasonic detector may also be used to detect extremely small leaks where smoke may not be visible. • Repair any leaks found. • Remove tester. • Remove plug from crankcase ventilation hose. • Remove air pressure adapter. With VAS diagnostic tool connected: • Erase DTC memory. If a smoke generator was not used to fill the system with smoke: • Apply soapy water solution or equivalent to intake system connections. Tip: An Ultrasonic detector may also be used to detect extremely small leaks. • Inspect intake system connections for leaks. • Repair any leaks found. • Remove tester. • Remove plug from crankcase ventilation hose. • Remove air pressure adapter. With VAS diagnostic tool connected: • Erase DTC memory. © 2023 Audi of America, Inc. Page 7 of 10 All rights reserved.
