Hello.
Does anyone know how to use VAG-COM to access older engine control units (ECUs)?
Compatible with models from 1993-1994 (Audi 80 B4, November 1993).
best regards, huby.

I have no idea, but I can read out data from a 1992 Golf (using the K and L lines).

I don't know what all the early engine control units (ECUs) were capable of.

Unfortunately, the repair manual on (www.erwin.de) can only be accessed with the help of...
Getting a VISA card costs approximately 18 euros.
I had the control unit read out at an Audi service center.
Here's the translation:

'Injection start: 50...65; if the indicator is outside the...'
Dynamic checking and adjustment of injection tolerance - Pages 23-32.

It appears to be a TDIU.

Okay, first, connect the diagnostic tool and turn on the ignition. Select engine control unit address 01. Then, go to the basic settings (04) and enter channel 00. You will now see 10 fields. Field 2 shows the injection time, and field 9 shows the fuel temperature. Compare these values with the specifications. If they are not correct, disconnect the fuel pump while the engine is off, so you can move it slightly. Start the engine, go back to the settings, and rotate the pump until the values are within the specified tolerance.
Turn off the motor. icon_biggrin.gif Tighten the pump securely. } Loosen and re-tighten all diesel lines to release any tension. } Reassemble everything. } Possibly clear any error codes. } Done!

Best regards, CorradoTDI.
