323001396 - X001 EXCESSIVE FUEL CONSUMPTION

The engine appears to be running smoothly, but the fuel consumption is higher than previously for the vehicle. The consumption figures in the technical documentation have been defined during the course of homologation tests in accordance with directive 93.116/CE. These tests simulate an urban cycle and an average extra-urban cycle and may therefore not be indicative as fuel consumption depends greatly on the style of driving.
TEST RESULTS
0PRELIMINARY CHECKSALL OKPROBLEMS ENCOUNTEREDACTION
Check the following:condition of the air filter;condition of the fuel filter.Check the exhaust circuit, paying particular attention to any obstructions in the pipes.Move on to Step 1.1. Filter element dirty or damaged.2. Fuel filter dirty.3. Exhausts blocked. 4. Exhaust system obstructed.1. Replace the filter element.    Op. 1048A14 AIR CLEANER FILTER ELEMENT - REPLACE. 2. Replace the fuel filter.    Op. 1044B10 FUEL FILTER ASSEMBLY - R + R OR REPLACE 3. Replace the complete exhaust pipe4. Replace the defective system component.
1CHECK USING DIAGNOSTIC EQUIPMENTALL OKPROBLEMS ENCOUNTEREDACTION
Connect the Examiner diagnostic equipment to the diagnostic connector and check the following at the engine management control unit:- in error mode;- that there are no faults;- in the parameters mode, the plausibility of all the parameters.Move on to Step 2.Error detected in the engine management control unit.Continue following the instructions given by the diagnostic equipment.
