  29. Connect the vacuum hose from the EVAP canister purge valve to the intake manifold.
  30. Refit the throttle cable.
  31. Raise the car slightly.
    IMPORTANT: To reduce the risk of hoses mounted on the delivery side of the turbocharger coming loose due to low friction at high air pressures, the hoses and connecting pieces must be cleaned thoroughly before fitting. Use a rag dampened with 93 160 907 Motip Dupli cleaning agent to wipe clean inside the ends of the hoses. Clean also the connecting pieces. If hose clips are rusty or damaged, they must be replaced with new ones to maintain the correct clamping force.
  32. Fit the hose between the turbocharger and charge air cooler.

  54. Secure all hoses and cables that have been disconnected.
    IMPORTANT: It is important to secure all hoses and cables correctly to minimize the risk of rattling noises and chafing.
    WARNING: The coolant is very hot and under high pressure. Risk of burn injuries when the pressure cap is opened. Be extremely careful.
  55. Bleed the cooling system as follows: If the car is equipped with A/C or ACC, it must be turned off since these will start the radiator fan. Fill the system to the MAX level, close the pressure cap, start the engine and warm it, preferably at varying engine speeds, until the radiator fan starts. Then fill the system to MAX once more.
  56. Test drive the car and check all functions. Check that the steering wheel stands straight when driving on a straight road. Adjust as necessary. Also check the oil level in the engine and gearbox.
  57. Set the clock to the correct time. Calibrate the ACC.
