P2636 - Fuel Transfer Saddle Tank Performance Prob!?!?
Posted by Tulsaab (# 1090) (more from Tulsaab) on Mon, 16 Jul 2012 21:03:49
2011 9-3 XWD, 6K miles. Last month, I ran out of gas w/ 41 miles DTE and posted on here. Today I was driving home with a little under 1/4 tank of gas, and about 80 miles DTE. Right when I pulled in the driveway, the fuel light came on, fuel gauge sunk to nothing, and check engine light came on.

Pulled the code, got P2636. WIS says the following: Fuel Transfer Saddle Tank, Performance Problem. Fault Symptom: Incorrect display of fuel level. Fault Criteria: Level sensor 1 shows less than 2 litres and level sensor 2 shows more than 7 litres for more than 60s.

When you get in to diagnostics, it says "Check the venturi unit and its hoses, which carry fuel from the left to the right side of the tank, for folds, cracks, and collapse".

So...thoughts? Anyone know what the "venturi unit" is and how I can check it?
