Components of Motronic ME 7
Motronic ME 7
The Bosch Motronic ME 7 was implemented in the
2.8L VR-6 engine for MY 1999, and in MY 2000 for
the 2.8L 5V V6 and the 1.8L 5V turbo.
Motronic ME 7 has brought several changes or
additions in components to both engine management
and other related systems.
Motronic ME 7 was the first torque-based system and
the first to consolidate processing of all subsystems
in a sub-processor responsible for all functions of
engine performance. Earlier systems used separate
sub-processors for functions such as ignition, fuel, or
emissions.
The changes include:
• Electronic Throttle Control
• Cruise Control
• Charge Air Pressure Sensor G31
• Integration of Barometric Pressure (BARO) Sensor
F96 as a component of the Motronic Engine
Control Module (ECM) J220
Motronic ME 7 was the first “Drive by Wire” system
offered in Volkswagen vehicles. Drive by Wire refers
to the lack of a mechanical connection between the
throttle pedal and the throttle valve.
• Turbocharger Recirculating Valve N249
