  1. Move slide ring (1) on hand vacuum pumpVAS 6213 to position (A) for "“vacuum”".
  2. Generate a vacuum of 0.6 bar.
  3. Watch the gauge of the hand vacuum pump for about 30 sec.
  4. Find damage or leaking connections in the hose and replace the piece of hose.
  5. Pull hose off the hand vacuum pumpVAS 6213.
  6. Remove one of the plugs from the hose end.
  7. If the non-return valve functions properly, a clear hiss is audible when vacuum in vacuum reservoir is released.
  8. Replace check valve.
  9. Reconnect vacuum hoses.

Who makes these pages, and how

TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.

The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.

Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
