6 The Platform - an Advantage for Workshops The term “platform” is frequently used in publications although its fundamental meaning is not explained. The result of this is that people are often unsure of what the term “platform” implies.The vehicle consists of a) the platform and b) the body.Design and vehicle characteristics dictate what form the body takes. In the eyes of the customer, the body characte-rises the styling of the vehicle as a whole. The Passat ‘97 The platformThe body The Passat ‘97 191/44191/76 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


7 The advantages for workshops like yourself are: -More clarity as regards the spare parts situation-Simplified inventory management-Fewer different special tools and fixtures-Easier assembly and repair Platform The platform comprises both common parts and system parts. Common parts e.g. sliding sunroof, steel rimCommon parts may only be used in platform vehicles without change.They do not influence the design of the vehicle. System parts e.g. seatSome system parts are identical.They have to be adapted since they are the interface between the platform and body. Common part Frame Adapted part Vehicle-specific seat uphol-stery, seat cover, etc. 191/90 System part Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


8 Environmental Protection and Recycling The concept of eco-friendliness was pursued consistently throughout development of the new Passat.We would now like to show you some aspects of this topic which are also of interest to work-shops. Recycling Not least the recycling requirements present workshops with problems such as identifying, presorting and storing materials and waste operating media. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Identification of plastic part materials l Fewer composite materials l Reduction in fine sealing through the use oflaser welding l No parts containing CFCs are used. Take bumpers for example: Bumpers were previously manufactured from composites. What the term “composite” means is that different materials are combined with one another in such a way that subse-quent separation into clean material streams is no longer possible.If a plastic is to be recovered for recycling, it should, if possible, be sorted according to type for recycling purposes. This means that different types of plastic, for example, must not be mixed with one another.The bumpers on the Passat are recyclable because they do not contain composites. .

9 Solvents Even during production, every effort is made to keep environmental pollution to a minimum. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Full galvanisation means much less wax and PVC underseal l Water-dilutable paints including water-based clear coat l Stringent requirements for materials ensurelower emissions in the vehicle interior Energy + Resources Raw materials and energy are in limited supply on the planet Earth. We must use them sparingly. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Less energy consumption during production through the use of new joining techniques (e.g. laser welding) and complete assemblies(e.g. side section of body), l Full galvanisation and an 11-year warrantyagainst corrosion perforation ensure highvalue retention and conservation of resources. Take laser welding for example: During laser welding, a highly concentrated light beam with a high energy content is used instead of a gas flame to join the components. No additional welding material is required, as is the case during MIG welding for example. Laser welded seams are extremely clean and do not need to be reworked.Laser welding offers a more favourable energy balance than conventional welding techniques. 191/03 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


10 Body The following will be of interest to you: l The Passat in the wind tunnel l Fully galvanised body l Greater body rigidity l Use of high-strength steel parts l Strategy of using common platform for bodyparts l Ease of repair demonstrated using door module as example l Rear collision demonstrated using bumperas example The Passat in the Wind Tunnel As you can see from the streamlines, the body of the new Passat is very aerodynamic.No turbulence, which increases aerodynamic drag, occurs.The new Passat has a drag coefficient of c d = 0.27, making it the best in its class.Accounting for the projected vehicle area (A) of 2.1 m 2 , aerodynamic drag is (Cd x A) = 0.567 m 2 . A = 2.1 m 2 191/02191/72 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


11 Fully-galvanised Body For the first time, the Passat has a fully galva-nised body which comes with an 11-year anti-corrosion perforation warranty.The drawing below shows you the parts which are hot-dip galvanised and those which are electrolytically galvanised.Surface patterns, which are also visible after painting, emerge during the hot-dip galvanisation process.That is why the outer skin of the body is electrolytically galvanised to produce a smooth finish. Electrolytically galvanisedHot-dip galvanised 191/70 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


12 Body Stability and Structure The Passat leads its class in terms of torsionalrigidity.This was achieved by using: l high-strength panels l different panel thicknesses l improved adhesive bonding techniques(e.g. adhesive joints)Adhesive joints increase rigidity and leakproofing while minimising noise levels. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


13 The Rear Bumpers Repairing damage to the rear bumperspreviously involved expensive repair and welding work, even after minor accidents.The bumpers on the Passat ‘97 have the capacity to absorb so much energy during a low-speed rear collision that only plastic parts have to be replaced. Time-consuming welding work is no longer necessary. High-strength Panels High-strength panels are used to produce a body with greater stability and strength and therefore to provide more safety for the vehicle occupants. They also substantially reduce the weight of the body-in-white.As you can see, the high-strength steel com-ponents in the front section of the vehicle create a cage-type structure to protect the vehicle occupants.The wings are also manufactured from high-strength steel. Advantages: -Less weight-Greater resistance to buckling-Higher strength 191/61 High-strength panelsAdhesive jointsLaser-weldedMash seam welded 191/46191/74 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


14 Body Body Platform The floorpan assembly, side members and luggage compartment floor assembly were adopted from the Audi A4 as a platform.To enhance ride comfort for rear-seat passengers, a steel floor plate 86 mmwide was inserted. +86 mm+86 mm New parts in Passat ‘97 191/69 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


15 Vehicle Safety As you will no doubt already know, we make a distinction between active and passive safety. Active safety Braking systemsSteeringRunning gearAirbag systemsRestraint systemsInside door panels and side trims with integral pelvis paddingsSafety bodySteering column The following features will be of interest to you: l Active and passive safety l ABS as standard l The Passat already complies with the new European standard for crashworthinesslDoor module with enclosed subframelDriver, front passenger and side airbagsas standardlNew seat belt tensioner with force limiterlInside door panels with pelvis paddingsPassive safety 191/75 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


16Vehicle Safety Crashworthiness The new Passat offers the driver and front pas-senger more safety, particularly during a side impact.The inside door panel, which is fitted complete with built-in door fittings, is bolted to the door. To protect the occupants, the inside door panel has an enclosed surface to prevent intrusion of the built-in door fittings into the interior of the vehicle.The side impact beams made of pressed sheet metal are arranged diagonally and glued to the outer panel to increase door rigidity.Impact energy can therefore be betterabsorbed, distributed and converted.Pelvis and rib paddings give the vehicle occupants added protection.The size of the overlap between the door and the sill, columns and side section has been increased.Deformation strength is increased due to the larger contact surface.Side impact beamPelvis paddingsInside door panelOverlap191/06191/07191/05Rib paddings Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


17Airbag SystemsIn addition to the driver and front passenger airbags, the Passat is equipped with side air-bags as standard.Depending on the side and angle of impact, only the airbags in the immediate vicinity of the danger zone are inflated.Therefore, an uninflated airbag on the side facing away from the accident need not necessarily be defective.The driver and front passenger airbags, which have filling volumes of roughly 65 ltr. and 120 ltr. respectively, conform to the new internatio-nal-standard airbag sizes.The volume of the standard side airbag isroughly 12 litres.Side impact, right-hand sideHead-on colli-sionSide impact, left-hand side60$60$60$Detected by:crash sensor located beneath the left-hand seat and a safety sensorintegrated in the airbag control unitDetected by:crash sensor and asafety sensorintegrated in the airbagcontrol unitDetected by:crash sensor located beneath theright-hand seat and asafety sensorintegrated in the airbagcontrol unit191/04 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

31ElectricsThe following features will be of interest to you:lDecentralised vehicle electrical systemlDash panel insertlGas discharge headlightslWasher jetsDecentralised Vehicle Electrical SystemAdvantages:-Short wiring harnesses make cable connections easier to find and assign.-The short cables achieve substantial weight savings.-Test points can be assigned more easily.-The components of the vehicle electrical system are well protected against moisture.-The decentralised vehicle electrical systemresults in easier servicing.Example of the arrangementof control unitsABS control unitFuse carriers, located on side of dash panelAirbag control unitMaster control for extended central locking systemEngine control unitThe main feature of the decentralised vehicle electrical system is that the central electrics are subdivided into separate connector stations, relay carriers and fuse carriers. These submo-dules are arranged locally. This means that they are located close to the assemblies and functional units to which they belong. The functions of the “car” as an integrated system are divided up among several control units with specific tasks.Repair work on the vehicle electrical system may only becarried out using Wiring Harness Repair Kit VAS1978.191/43 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


32Electrics Dash panel insertThe following features will be of interest to you:lElectronic immobiliser integrated in dash panel insertlCapable of diagnosislCan be encodedlFuel gaugeThe dash panel insert is available in twoversions which differ from one another in terms of the displays in the centre of the dash panel insert.In vehicles equipped with a navigation system, this display is complemented by the Auto Check System with a multi-function display.The immobiliser is an integral feature of the dash panel insert. However, the matching functions of the immobiliser have been left unchanged.Self-diagnosis:The diagnostic functions can be retrieved using address word “17”.Both instruments can be encoded. This means that the dash panel insert can be encoded depending on country and engine configuration. It is also possible to enter the current mileage when the dash panel insert is replaced.Auto Check System with multi-function display191/79 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


33Fuel gaugeIn previous systems, the fuel gauge tended to fluctuate, e.g. when cornering. To counteract this, damping of the fuel gauge was increased using electronic devices.However, the drawback of this was that the fuel gauge took longer to display the correct fuel level after refueling.The new fuel gauge eliminates this drawback.If the ignition is switched off and fuel tank capacity increases by four litres or more, the newfuel level is recalculated and displayed straight after the ignition is restarted.If the ignition is switched on and the vehicle is stationary, the damping cuts out and the fuel level is displayed immediately.Do not refuel the vehicle with the ignition switched on.Fuel gaugewhen cornering (previously)Fuel gaugewhen cornering (today)Fuel gaugewhen refuelingDamping OnDamping Off191/51 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

4 Engines Given that the engine concepts used in the Passat ‘97 are tried and tested, we will con-fine ourselves solely to special innovations such as the variable valve timing featured in the 2.8-ltr. V6 engine. Gearbox Non-ferrous metals, such as aluminium or magnesium, are being used increasingly in vehicle construction. In this booklet we will explain the advantages and special features of magnesium components. Drive shafts We will explain how length compensation works in the triple roller drive shafts.

7 Effect of the restraint systems during minor accidents During minor accidents, the body only partially absorbs the impact energy of components such as bumpers and impact absorbers. The seat belts provide adequate protection; the belt tensioners restrain the car’s occupants in their seats.The belt force limiter reduces the risk of the belt causing injury.In this case, the airbags are not triggered. The belt tensioners are triggered mechanically on impact. SSP 192/048 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


8 Vehicle safety The effect of the restraint systems during serious accidents During serious accidents, the car body absorbs the impact energy. The passenger compart-ment remains by and large intact and theairbags are triggered.In addition to the protection afforded by the seat belts, the restraint systems protect the front passengers from more serious injuries in the upper body and head areas.The car’s central locking system is opened.

9 When carrying out work on the airbag systems, always follow the instructions given in the Workshop Manuals. Side airbag The new side airbag system is integrated in the driver’s and front passenger’s seats. The side airbag is described as a thorax airbag. It mainly protects the thorax, and with it the lungs and pelvis, from lateral bruising.In terms of its appearance, the new airbag control unit has a different connectorhousing code to the previous model.

10 Vehicle safety Side airbag design The side airbags are integrated in the front seat backrests.The folded airbag and gas generator are accommodated inside the plastic housing.When the side airbag is triggered, the gas cartridges in the gas generator are opened and the pyrotechnical charge ignites. The highly pressurised gas contained insidethe cartridge expands instantaneously, inflating the airbag.While expanding, the gas cools and mixes with the hot gas of the pyrotechnical charge. The temperature of the gas mixture is therefore so low that there is no risk of burning.The side airbag has a capacity of approx. 12 litres.

11 A two-stage crash recognition system is used to ensure reliable side airbag activation. Crash sensors G179/G180 The crash sensors for the side airbags are located below the two front seats on the seat cross mem-bers. They are conditioned to respond to lateral force application.The crash sensors are known as intelligent sensors. They operate independently of each other.In addition to an electronic acceleration sensor, the entire electronics are integrated in the sensor housing. When a sensor recognises a crash, it sends a signal to the airbag control unit. SSP 192/119 SSP 192/070 When an impact occurs, the crash sensor G179 informs the airbag control unit that it has recognised a crash. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


12 Vehicle safety Airbag control unit J234 In parallel to the crash sensors, sensors in the airbag control unit evaluate the severity of the crash. The relevant side airbag is not triggered until these sensors have also rcognised that an accident has occurred and a crash sensor sends an airbag trigger request.The two crash sensors below the front seats perform a function check at regular intervals, providing feedback to the airbag control unit. The system status of the side airbags can be displayed via the self-diagnosis. The airbag control unit also indicates when a fault may possibly have occurred in the crash sensors or the side airbags via the airbag warning lamp.There is an additional energy storage device in the airbag control unit for igniting the side airbags. If the power supply fails during an accident, this energy storage device has sufficient energy to power the control unit and, if necessary, to ignite the airbags. Self-diagnosis: The self-diagnosis is started using address word “15”.

13 Belt tensioner The pyrotechnical belt tensioner combines with the force limiter and the seat belt recognition device in a single unit. It is only triggered if the mechanical seat belt fastened recognition system recognises an unreeled belt.Its compact design makes for much easier replacement.When an impact occurs, the belt tensioners reel in the belt and thus take up any slack (clearance between belt and body). The mode of operation of the belt tensioner is very different to that of its predecessors.There are two belt tensioner variants: l A ball-driven belt tensioner, used on the front seats. l Belt tensioners operating according to the same principle as the Wankelengine, used on the rear seats.

14 Functional description of front belt tensioner The belt tensioner is activated by balls moun-ted in a feed tube.When the belt tensioner is triggered, a pyro-technical propellant charge ignites. It sets the balls in motion and drives them into the ball retainer via a gearwheel.The belt reeling device is driven by the kinetic energy of the balls, thus reeling in the belt.

16 Functional description of rear belt tensioner. The first propellant charge is ignited by amechanical triggering device. The released gas causes the rotor to rotate. The belt is tightened.After a certain angle of rotation, the piston opens the inlet port of the second firing pin, thus igniting the second propellant charge.The released gas makes the rotor rotate until the next inlet channel is opened. The third charge ignites.The belt tensioner is able to perform approxi-mately two full turns in this way.

17 Belt force limiter Functional description of belt force limiter If, due to acceleration, the tensile force of the belt is so high that bruising or internal injuries can occur, the tensile force of the belt must be limited to a tolerable level.It is limited by the belt reeling device torsion shaft. The torsion shaft operates in much the same way as a spring. Depending on its tensile force, the belt “gives”.Both types of belt tensioner use the same system Belt reeling deviceThe end of the slot limits the distance which the reeling device can “give”.The torsion shaft is con-nected to the gearwheel on this side.Belt The torsion shaft is con-nected to the reeling device on this side.The reeling device is able to rotate freely within gearwheel inner race.The torsion shaft runs through the belt reeling device.

262.8-ltr. V6 Engine ACKVariable valve timingIt provides high torque when driving in low gears at low speeds, thus improving fuel economy and reducing exhaust emissions.High output is needed at high speeds. To achieve both, the cylinder must be well-filled in all speed ranges.At low speeds, the piston moves so slowly that the gas mixture in the intake manifold follows the movement of the piston. The inlet valve must be closed early so that the fuel-air mixture is not forced back into the intake manifold.At high speeds, the flow rate inside the intake manifold is so high that the mixture can continue to flow into the cylinder although the piston is moving back up.The inlet valve is closed when the fuel-air mixture can no longer enter the cylinder.In engines with variable valve timing, the closing times of the inlet valve are adapted to the speed range.Injection valve closes earlyInjection valve closes lateSSP 192/131SSP 192/130 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


27The principle of variable valve timing:Performance positionIn the “Performance” position, the lower section of the chain is short while the upper one is long.The inlet valve closes late. The rapid air flow within the intake manifold ensures that the cylinder charge is high. The engine is thus able to develop high output at high speeds.Torque positionMoving the variable valve timer down shortens the upper chain section and lengthens the lower one. The inlet camshafts therefore rotate in relation to the exhaust camshaft. The exhaust camshaft cannot rotate at the same time, since it is restrained by the toothed belt.The inlet valve closes early. In this position, high torque is produced in the lower and medium speed ranges.The exhaust camshaft is driven by the crankshaft by means of a toothed belt. The inlet camshaft is driven by the exhaust camshaft by means of a chain. With variable valve timing, the opening timesof the inlet valves are adjusted depending onengine speed.

29The design of the V6 engine makes particularly heavy demands on variable valve timing.Viewed from above, the exhaust camshafts are arranged on the outside and the inlet cams-hafts on the inside.As a result, the variable valve timers of the left and right bank of cylinders have to operate in opposite directions.Variable valve timing in the V6 engineIdlingWhen the engine is idling, the inlet valves are closed late.Torque positionThe inlet valves are closed early above an engine speed of 1000 rpm. The camshaft adjuster of the left bank of cylinders moves down while the right cylinder bank variable valve timer moves up.Performance positionAt a speed of 3700 rpm, the inlet valves are closed late.SSP 192/129SSP 192/103SSP 192/104SSP 192/103Inlet camshaftExhaust camshaft Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

An electrochemical voltage series is produced by arranging the metals in a series extending from non-precious metal to precious metal.The further the metals in the voltage series are apart from one another, the higher the current and the more readily the less precious metals decompose.AluminiumIronLeadCopperGoldAlFePbCuAuMagnesiumH2OSSP 192/096Excerpt from electrochemical voltage series Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

55ElectricsGas discharge lampIn the case of gas discharge lamps, light is generated by an electric arc between twoelectrodes in a pea-sized gas-filled glass tube. The lamp emits light with high green and blue components due to the composition of the gas in the lamp tube. This is the external distinguishing feature of gas discharge technology.The advantages of this new headlight genera-tion over conventional lamp technology are as follows:lUp to three times higher luminous efficiency,same power consumption.A 35W gas discharge lamp is sufficient to provide twice the illumination of a 55W lamp.lThe useful life of approx. 2500 hours is severaltimes that of the halogen lamp.lThe special design of the reflector, apertureand lens provides a much longer rangeand a wider near-field scatter zone. Thisilluminates the roadside better, thusreducing driver eye fatigue.lFog lights are not needed due to thewide near-field beam.ElectrodeSSP 192/121ElectrodeElectric arcGlass tubewithgas filling Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


56ElectricsA gas discharge headlight comprises:lheadlight housing,lgas discharge lamp ballast J426/J427andlheadlight range control actuator V48/V49.The gas discharge lamp requires a high-voltage pulse of several thousand volts to ignite the elec-tric arc. The voltage is produced in the ballast.After ignition, an increased electric current isapplied to the gas discharge lamp for approx. 3 seconds. As a result, the lamp achieves its maxi-mum brightness with a minimum delay of 0.3 seconds. This slight delay is also the reason why the main headlight is still equipped with a halogen lamp which is connected to the headlight as required.Once the gas discharge lamp has reached its nominal brightness, the ballast regulates the lamp power output tio the lamp.BallastElectrical connectionHeadlight range control actuatorGas discharge headlightSSP 192/078Gas discharge lampSSP 192/122A repair solution is available for the headlight housing. During minor accidents, the securing pin on the headlight housing can shear off. With regard to the gas discharge headlight, this may result in disproportionately high repair costs.

57Automatic headlight range controlTo prevent dazzling oncoming traffic, the gas discharge headlights have to be equipped with an automatic headlight range control. The control unit for automatic headlight range control determines the car’s load condition by two sensors located on the front and rear axles on the left of the car. It continuously adjusts the headlight via the actuator to ensure that the road is always illuminated optimally.

68Air-conditioningSunshine penetration photosensor G107The air-conditioning temperature control is affec-ted by the sunshine penetration photosensor.It measures the sunlight falling directly on the car’s occupants.How it works:The sunlight impinges on a photodiode through a filter and an optical element. The filter has the same effect as sunglasses and prevents sublight from damaging thephotodiode. The photodiode is a light-sensitive semiconduc-tor element. When it is not illuminated, only a small electric current can flow through the diode. When it is illuminated, the electric currentincreases. The stronger the light, the higherthe current.

6 The Platform - an Advantage for Workshops The term “platform” is frequently used in publications although its fundamental meaning is not explained. The result of this is that people are often unsure of what the term “platform” implies.The vehicle consists of a) the platform and b) the body.Design and vehicle characteristics dictate what form the body takes. In the eyes of the customer, the body characte-rises the styling of the vehicle as a whole.

7 The advantages for workshops like yourself are: -More clarity as regards the spare parts situation-Simplified inventory management-Fewer different special tools and fixtures-Easier assembly and repair Platform The platform comprises both common parts and system parts. Common parts e.g. sliding sunroof, steel rimCommon parts may only be used in platform vehicles without change.They do not influence the design of the vehicle. System parts e.g. seatSome system parts are identical.They have to be adapted since they are the interface between the platform and body.

8 Environmental Protection and Recycling The concept of eco-friendliness was pursued consistently throughout development of the new Passat.We would now like to show you some aspects of this topic which are also of interest to work-shops. Recycling Not least the recycling requirements present workshops with problems such as identifying, presorting and storing materials and waste operating media. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Identification of plastic part materials l Fewer composite materials l Reduction in fine sealing through the use oflaser welding l No parts containing CFCs are used. Take bumpers for example: Bumpers were previously manufactured from composites. What the term “composite” means is that different materials are combined with one another in such a way that subse-quent separation into clean material streams is no longer possible.If a plastic is to be recovered for recycling, it should, if possible, be sorted according to type for recycling purposes. This means that different types of plastic, for example, must not be mixed with one another.The bumpers on the Passat are recyclable because they do not contain composites. .

9 Solvents Even during production, every effort is made to keep environmental pollution to a minimum. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Full galvanisation means much less wax and PVC underseal l Water-dilutable paints including water-based clear coat l Stringent requirements for materials ensurelower emissions in the vehicle interior Energy + Resources Raw materials and energy are in limited supply on the planet Earth. We must use them sparingly. To achieve this, the following measures were taken: l Less energy consumption during production through the use of new joining techniques (e.g. laser welding) and complete assemblies(e.g. side section of body), l Full galvanisation and an 11-year warrantyagainst corrosion perforation ensure highvalue retention and conservation of resources. Take laser welding for example: During laser welding, a highly concentrated light beam with a high energy content is used instead of a gas flame to join the components. No additional welding material is required, as is the case during MIG welding for example. Laser welded seams are extremely clean and do not need to be reworked.Laser welding offers a more favourable energy balance than conventional welding techniques. 191/03 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


10 Body The following will be of interest to you: l The Passat in the wind tunnel l Fully galvanised body l Greater body rigidity l Use of high-strength steel parts l Strategy of using common platform for bodyparts l Ease of repair demonstrated using door module as example l Rear collision demonstrated using bumperas example The Passat in the Wind Tunnel As you can see from the streamlines, the body of the new Passat is very aerodynamic.No turbulence, which increases aerodynamic drag, occurs.The new Passat has a drag coefficient of c d = 0.27, making it the best in its class.Accounting for the projected vehicle area (A) of 2.1 m 2 , aerodynamic drag is (Cd x A) = 0.567 m 2 . A = 2.1 m 2 191/02191/72 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


11 Fully-galvanised Body For the first time, the Passat has a fully galva-nised body which comes with an 11-year anti-corrosion perforation warranty.The drawing below shows you the parts which are hot-dip galvanised and those which are electrolytically galvanised.Surface patterns, which are also visible after painting, emerge during the hot-dip galvanisation process.That is why the outer skin of the body is electrolytically galvanised to produce a smooth finish. Electrolytically galvanisedHot-dip galvanised 191/70 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


12 Body Stability and Structure The Passat leads its class in terms of torsionalrigidity.This was achieved by using: l high-strength panels l different panel thicknesses l improved adhesive bonding techniques(e.g. adhesive joints)Adhesive joints increase rigidity and leakproofing while minimising noise levels. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


13 The Rear Bumpers Repairing damage to the rear bumperspreviously involved expensive repair and welding work, even after minor accidents.The bumpers on the Passat ‘97 have the capacity to absorb so much energy during a low-speed rear collision that only plastic parts have to be replaced. Time-consuming welding work is no longer necessary. High-strength Panels High-strength panels are used to produce a body with greater stability and strength and therefore to provide more safety for the vehicle occupants. They also substantially reduce the weight of the body-in-white.As you can see, the high-strength steel com-ponents in the front section of the vehicle create a cage-type structure to protect the vehicle occupants.The wings are also manufactured from high-strength steel.

16Vehicle Safety Crashworthiness The new Passat offers the driver and front pas-senger more safety, particularly during a side impact.The inside door panel, which is fitted complete with built-in door fittings, is bolted to the door. To protect the occupants, the inside door panel has an enclosed surface to prevent intrusion of the built-in door fittings into the interior of the vehicle.The side impact beams made of pressed sheet metal are arranged diagonally and glued to the outer panel to increase door rigidity.Impact energy can therefore be betterabsorbed, distributed and converted.Pelvis and rib paddings give the vehicle occupants added protection.The size of the overlap between the door and the sill, columns and side section has been increased.Deformation strength is increased due to the larger contact surface.Side impact beamPelvis paddingsInside door panelOverlap191/06191/07191/05Rib paddings Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


17Airbag SystemsIn addition to the driver and front passenger airbags, the Passat is equipped with side air-bags as standard.Depending on the side and angle of impact, only the airbags in the immediate vicinity of the danger zone are inflated.Therefore, an uninflated airbag on the side facing away from the accident need not necessarily be defective.The driver and front passenger airbags, which have filling volumes of roughly 65 ltr. and 120 ltr. respectively, conform to the new internatio-nal-standard airbag sizes.The volume of the standard side airbag isroughly 12 litres.Side impact, right-hand sideHead-on colli-sionSide impact, left-hand side60$60$60$Detected by:crash sensor located beneath the left-hand seat and a safety sensorintegrated in the airbag control unitDetected by:crash sensor and asafety sensorintegrated in the airbagcontrol unitDetected by:crash sensor located beneath theright-hand seat and asafety sensorintegrated in the airbagcontrol unit191/04 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

33Fuel gaugeIn previous systems, the fuel gauge tended to fluctuate, e.g. when cornering. To counteract this, damping of the fuel gauge was increased using electronic devices.However, the drawback of this was that the fuel gauge took longer to display the correct fuel level after refueling.The new fuel gauge eliminates this drawback.If the ignition is switched off and fuel tank capacity increases by four litres or more, the newfuel level is recalculated and displayed straight after the ignition is restarted.If the ignition is switched on and the vehicle is stationary, the damping cuts out and the fuel level is displayed immediately.Do not refuel the vehicle with the ignition switched on.Fuel gaugewhen cornering (previously)Fuel gaugewhen cornering (today)Fuel gaugewhen refuelingDamping OnDamping Off191/51 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

6 Vehicle Safety Mode of operation of the restraint systems Two different restraint systems are used in the new Passat: l Seat belts with belt tensioner and belt force limiter, used on all outerseats, l Front and side airbags for the driver and front passenger.

7 Effect of the restraint systems during minor accidents During minor accidents, the body only partially absorbs the impact energy of components such as bumpers and impact absorbers. The seat belts provide adequate protection; the belt tensioners restrain the car’s occupants in their seats.The belt force limiter reduces the risk of the belt causing injury.In this case, the airbags are not triggered. The belt tensioners are triggered mechanically on impact. SSP 192/048 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


8 Vehicle safety The effect of the restraint systems during serious accidents During serious accidents, the car body absorbs the impact energy. The passenger compart-ment remains by and large intact and theairbags are triggered.In addition to the protection afforded by the seat belts, the restraint systems protect the front passengers from more serious injuries in the upper body and head areas.The car’s central locking system is opened.

9 When carrying out work on the airbag systems, always follow the instructions given in the Workshop Manuals. Side airbag The new side airbag system is integrated in the driver’s and front passenger’s seats. The side airbag is described as a thorax airbag. It mainly protects the thorax, and with it the lungs and pelvis, from lateral bruising.In terms of its appearance, the new airbag control unit has a different connectorhousing code to the previous model.

10 Vehicle safety Side airbag design The side airbags are integrated in the front seat backrests.The folded airbag and gas generator are accommodated inside the plastic housing.When the side airbag is triggered, the gas cartridges in the gas generator are opened and the pyrotechnical charge ignites. The highly pressurised gas contained insidethe cartridge expands instantaneously, inflating the airbag.While expanding, the gas cools and mixes with the hot gas of the pyrotechnical charge. The temperature of the gas mixture is therefore so low that there is no risk of burning.The side airbag has a capacity of approx. 12 litres. HousingAir bagGas generatorwith gas cartridge and pyrotechnical charge SSP 192/005 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


11 A two-stage crash recognition system is used to ensure reliable side airbag activation. Crash sensors G179/G180 The crash sensors for the side airbags are located below the two front seats on the seat cross mem-bers. They are conditioned to respond to lateral force application.The crash sensors are known as intelligent sensors. They operate independently of each other.In addition to an electronic acceleration sensor, the entire electronics are integrated in the sensor housing. When a sensor recognises a crash, it sends a signal to the airbag control unit. SSP 192/119 SSP 192/070 When an impact occurs, the crash sensor G179 informs the airbag control unit that it has recognised a crash. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


12 Vehicle safety Airbag control unit J234 In parallel to the crash sensors, sensors in the airbag control unit evaluate the severity of the crash. The relevant side airbag is not triggered until these sensors have also rcognised that an accident has occurred and a crash sensor sends an airbag trigger request.The two crash sensors below the front seats perform a function check at regular intervals, providing feedback to the airbag control unit. The system status of the side airbags can be displayed via the self-diagnosis. The airbag control unit also indicates when a fault may possibly have occurred in the crash sensors or the side airbags via the airbag warning lamp.There is an additional energy storage device in the airbag control unit for igniting the side airbags. If the power supply fails during an accident, this energy storage device has sufficient energy to power the control unit and, if necessary, to ignite the airbags. Self-diagnosis: The self-diagnosis is started using address word “15”. SSP 192/120 The side airbag is triggered by theairbag control unit.The sensors in the con-trol unit have recognised an accident in addition to crash sensor G178. Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


13 Belt tensioner The pyrotechnical belt tensioner combines with the force limiter and the seat belt recognition device in a single unit. It is only triggered if the mechanical seat belt fastened recognition system recognises an unreeled belt.Its compact design makes for much easier replacement.When an impact occurs, the belt tensioners reel in the belt and thus take up any slack (clearance between belt and body). The mode of operation of the belt tensioner is very different to that of its predecessors.There are two belt tensioner variants: l A ball-driven belt tensioner, used on the front seats. l Belt tensioners operating according to the same principle as the Wankelengine, used on the rear seats.

14 Functional description of front belt tensioner The belt tensioner is activated by balls moun-ted in a feed tube.When the belt tensioner is triggered, a pyro-technical propellant charge ignites. It sets the balls in motion and drives them into the ball retainer via a gearwheel.The belt reeling device is driven by the kinetic energy of the balls, thus reeling in the belt.

16 Functional description of rear belt tensioner. The first propellant charge is ignited by amechanical triggering device. The released gas causes the rotor to rotate. The belt is tightened.After a certain angle of rotation, the piston opens the inlet port of the second firing pin, thus igniting the second propellant charge.The released gas makes the rotor rotate until the next inlet channel is opened. The third charge ignites.The belt tensioner is able to perform approxi-mately two full turns in this way.

17 Belt force limiter Functional description of belt force limiter If, due to acceleration, the tensile force of the belt is so high that bruising or internal injuries can occur, the tensile force of the belt must be limited to a tolerable level.It is limited by the belt reeling device torsion shaft. The torsion shaft operates in much the same way as a spring. Depending on its tensile force, the belt “gives”.Both types of belt tensioner use the same system Belt reeling deviceThe end of the slot limits the distance which the reeling device can “give”.The torsion shaft is con-nected to the gearwheel on this side.Belt The torsion shaft is con-nected to the reeling device on this side.The reeling device is able to rotate freely within gearwheel inner race.The torsion shaft runs through the belt reeling device.

262.8-ltr. V6 Engine ACKVariable valve timingIt provides high torque when driving in low gears at low speeds, thus improving fuel economy and reducing exhaust emissions.High output is needed at high speeds. To achieve both, the cylinder must be well-filled in all speed ranges.At low speeds, the piston moves so slowly that the gas mixture in the intake manifold follows the movement of the piston. The inlet valve must be closed early so that the fuel-air mixture is not forced back into the intake manifold.At high speeds, the flow rate inside the intake manifold is so high that the mixture can continue to flow into the cylinder although the piston is moving back up.The inlet valve is closed when the fuel-air mixture can no longer enter the cylinder.In engines with variable valve timing, the closing times of the inlet valve are adapted to the speed range.Injection valve closes earlyInjection valve closes lateSSP 192/131SSP 192/130 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


27The principle of variable valve timing:Performance positionIn the “Performance” position, the lower section of the chain is short while the upper one is long.The inlet valve closes late. The rapid air flow within the intake manifold ensures that the cylinder charge is high. The engine is thus able to develop high output at high speeds.Torque positionMoving the variable valve timer down shortens the upper chain section and lengthens the lower one. The inlet camshafts therefore rotate in relation to the exhaust camshaft. The exhaust camshaft cannot rotate at the same time, since it is restrained by the toothed belt.The inlet valve closes early. In this position, high torque is produced in the lower and medium speed ranges.The exhaust camshaft is driven by the crankshaft by means of a toothed belt. The inlet camshaft is driven by the exhaust camshaft by means of a chain. With variable valve timing, the opening timesof the inlet valves are adjusted depending onengine speed. The drive chain therefore turnsthe inlet camshaft.Inlet camshaftExhaust camshaftVariable valve timerSSP 192/081SSP 192/080 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

Low density goes hand in hand with low strength. This loss of strength has to be compensated for somehow.The housing is therefore ribbed more intensively and the wall thickness has been increased. As a result, the magnesium housing actually weighs 27% less than the aluminium housing.Bolt insertion depth has also been increased.Comparison of insertion depths between magnesium, aluminium and ironSSP 192/058SSP 192/059SSP 192/060 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


37Electrochemical voltage seriesIn the presence of water, an electric current develops between two different metals. The car battery operates according to a similar principle. The electric current causes one of the two metals to decompose. If a metal decomposes easily, it is termed a non-precious metal. If a metal does not decompose easily, it is termed a precious metal. An electrochemical voltage series is produced by arranging the metals in a series extending from non-precious metal to precious metal.The further the metals in the voltage series are apart from one another, the higher the current and the more readily the less precious metals decompose.AluminiumIronLeadCopperGoldAlFePbCuAuMagnesiumH2OSSP 192/096Excerpt from electrochemical voltage series Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine

At certain speeds, the unit begins to oscillate in its mountings.This movement is compensated by the triple roller joints, whereby the tripod star, together with the rollers, slide within their races.The triple roller joint housing is pushed over the tripod star rollers by the movement of the engine/gearbox unit.The drive shaft remains stationary in the process.

43The following pages describe the design modifications to the axles of the Passat ‘97 as presented to you in Self Study Programme SSP 191.Running GearTorsion beam rear axleThe anti-roll bar used in the new torsion beam rear axle is located in front of the axis of rotation. The rear axle mountings are located on the far outer side of the axle. This consi-derably reduces the forces acting on the rear axle mountings. The mounting housing is made of aluminium and bolted to the trailing arms.When designing the rear axle, comfort was a major consideration. The rear axle mountings and the large rubber bases of the coil springs minimise noise transmission from the axle to the body.Anti-roll barRear axle mountingRubber baseSSP 192/100On axles where the rear axle mounting is located on the inside, the mountings haveto absorb large forces when cornering.Locating the rear axle mountings on the out-side makes the lever arms shorter, with the result that the mountings only absorb smaller forces. They can therefore be designed with a softer rating.SSP 192/112SSP 192/111Trailing armrAxis of rotationLong lever armShort lever armRear axle mounting Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine


44Conventional rear axles have a V section which is open facing forward. In this configuration, the shear centre of the axle is located behind the V section.The centre of rotation is an imaginary axis about which the axle rotates when the suspension experiences a bump on one side.If the shear centre is behind the V section, thendiagonally aligned track-correcting mountings have to be used to achieve a self-steering effect.The new torsion beam rear axle has a Vsection which is open downwards. The shear centre is located above the V section. The axle has different rotational characteristics as a result.SSP 192/116SSP 192/114SSP 192/117Shear centreCentre of rotationRunning GearWhen cornering, the inside and outside cornering wheels go through rebound and bump respec-tively, because the car body tilts to the outside.The axle is twisted in itself.

55ElectricsGas discharge lampIn the case of gas discharge lamps, light is generated by an electric arc between twoelectrodes in a pea-sized gas-filled glass tube. The lamp emits light with high green and blue components due to the composition of the gas in the lamp tube. This is the external distinguishing feature of gas discharge technology.The advantages of this new headlight genera-tion over conventional lamp technology are as follows:lUp to three times higher luminous efficiency,same power consumption.A 35W gas discharge lamp is sufficient to provide twice the illumination of a 55W lamp.lThe useful life of approx. 2500 hours is severaltimes that of the halogen lamp.lThe special design of the reflector, apertureand lens provides a much longer rangeand a wider near-field scatter zone.

The voltage is produced in the ballast.After ignition, an increased electric current isapplied to the gas discharge lamp for approx. 3 seconds. As a result, the lamp achieves its maxi-mum brightness with a minimum delay of 0.3 seconds. This slight delay is also the reason why the main headlight is still equipped with a halogen lamp which is connected to the headlight as required.Once the gas discharge lamp has reached its nominal brightness, the ballast regulates the lamp power output tio the lamp.BallastElectrical connectionHeadlight range control actuatorGas discharge headlightSSP 192/078Gas discharge lampSSP 192/122A repair solution is available for the headlight housing.

By designing the sender in this way, the temperature is not determined at a measuring point, but along a measuring section. The central air outlet temperature is measured in this way.Central outlet temperature sender G191Self-diagnosis fault messageOpen circuit/short circuit to positive.Short circuit to earth.NTC resistorPCBSSP 192/033Footwell outlet temperature sender G192The temperature is measured by a temperature-dependent resistor.As temperature decreases, the electrical resistance increases.The temperature of the air streaming into the vehicle is now measured by two separatetemperature sensors.NTC resistorSSP 192/032 Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
