The Most Profound Problems In Audi G28

From Alternative Lifestyle Wiki

How to Replace an replacement audi a3 key tt audi a3 key fob (Https://sumner-downs.mdwrite.net) G28 Engine Speed Sensor

In this video, Charles the Humble Mechanic shows how to replace the G28 engine speed sensor. The sensor is located near the edges of the transmission above the flywheel ring gear. It transmits a signal the ECU via the grey wire (T55/49) and then to the tachometer within the instrument cluster.

1. Engine Speed Sensor

The grey wire is situated on the outside of the transmission, just above the flywheel ring. The sensor transmits signals through the grey wire to pin T55/49. The ECU utilizes this information to control boost and fuel. It also sends a signal to the G5 tachometer inside the instrument cluster.

The sensor is used to connect the G40 Camshaft position Sensor. The ecu must be aware of when the crankshaft has reached TDC, and where the camshaft lies to trigger the spark and injectors.

If this sensor fails when it fails, the ECU will display an error code P00160. This indicates that the Crank Shaft is out of alignment with the Intake Camshaft. It could also indicate a chain stretch or a jumpy chain link in the upper chain of timing. The code won't show without the additional information provided by other sensors (G4 or G40).

It is a little tricky to test because there are various pins on the connector and each one has different functions. The best way to do it is by measuring the resistance between the ECU and the sensor. If the sensor is operational, it should read about 1000 ohms. If you're having issues with this component, look for signs of coolant or oil in the connector bay.

2. Injectors

Yesterday, while accelerating at full speed from the highway paytoll i had a big cut in power like the engine is out of gas or the injectors are not firing anymore. I took out the spark plugs this morning and found that 3 were drenched in gasoline and the 4th was dry. When i crank the engine without sparks, i place a tissue on top of each injector hole and the 3 drenched with gazoline pop out, but the 4th one stays closed. I checked the ground connection on ECU pins 14/55/30/55/48/55/14/55/48/ I got 0ohm. I'm assuming the issue is somewhere else.

I also tried to reset the PID with no success. The car will start when the G28 is disconnected, but it runs fine with the G28 plugged in. However the intermittent misfire issue persists at higher RPM. The coolant sensor (G62) even when unplugged, still shows an ice temperature of -49c. Also, i noticed that the gauge for oil pressure in the cockpit shows 2 bar while the actual pressure is 0.0 when i rev the engine.

I don't know what to do. I believe that I've eliminated everything else. However, i'm afraid that I might have missed something. If anyone has any suggestions, please share them! TIA!

3. Fuel Pump

The fuel pump in the g28 is activated by a signal from the RPM sensor. The GM-style transmitter functions similarly to the G4 sender and works on the 80,100,200, UrS, and RS2 vehicles. You can easily find the spare in a salvage shop or a parts store. It is simple to test them - just switch your DMM into resistance mode and measure the distance between pins 1 and 2 (with the bump on the connector's edge facing up). They should be infinite Ohms.

4. ECU

Our 20vt turbo (3B, AAN, ABY and ADU) engines have an ECU that has to know the speed and Replacement Audi key fob position of the crankshaft in order to make decisions regarding fuel injector timing etc. It makes use of a Crank Position Sensor G4 and an Engine Speed Sensor G28 to accomplish this. If you encounter a problem with either of these, the diagnostic scanner will display codes that could cause an engine shut down.

Some of the symptoms of a failing G28 sensor are an inaccurate rev counter for the gearbox and gears that shift faster than normal and/or misfiring when you are in gear. If you experience any of these problems, it is most likely that your sensor is failing and needs replacing. The good news is they are very affordable and easily accessible, especially when you're looking at the Bosch unit which is what we have. Alternatively, GM's version of this part is an option.

5. Tachometer

A failing engine speed sensor could be the reason behind many issues with your vehicle. It's a vital component of your audi key copy's transmission, as it sends information to the ECU about how fast or slow the car's crankshaft is rotating. This sensor could cause the transmission to fail and other car components to be affected.

The G5 engine sensor is located at the edge of transmission, above the flywheel ring. It transmits a signal via a gray wire to the ECU pin T55/49. The ECU then processes this signal to regulate fuel, timig, and boost and then sends it on to the G5 Tachometer located in the instrument cluster. You can test the sensor for any failure by checking the continuity between it and the tachometer, between the ECU pin T55/49 and the instrument cluster connection via pin T6a/1 (trace [79]) and between pin T6a/1 and the instrument cluster pin T26a/12. You should see approximately 1000 ohms of resistance between those points. This is a common component across the audi replacement key cost uk 80 100, 200, UrS and RS2 range from 1985 MC to the 1997 UrS AAN and 1995 RS2 ADU so good ones could be available in wrecking yards.
