15 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Cooler Pump (V400)

16 - Pressure Retaining Valve or Restrictor in the Fuel Return Line

The type of component that was installed is dependent upon the model year

The check valve always maintains a residual pressure (control quantity) of approximately 10 bar (145 psi) in the fuel return lines.

The restrictor always maintains a residual pressure (control quantity) of approximately 4 bar in the fuel return lines.

The Piezo injectors need this control quantity for their function.

The check valve or the restrictor can be replaced only with the complete fuel return lines.

Bleed the fuel system after replacing, refer to => [ Fuel Tank, Filling with Fuel after Installing High Pressure Pump ] General Information
