Transmission, Installing

Note

♦

Refer to “Transmission, Removing” to get a list of the special

tools needed. Refer to

⇒ “5.1 Transmission, TDI, Removing and Installing”,

page 166

 .

♦

Replace the self-locking nuts and bolts.

♦

Replace bolts that were tightened with an additional turn.

♦

Install any cable ties that were loosened or cut off during re‐

moval at their same location.

♦

Clean input shaft splines and (on used clutch plates) the hub

splines, remove corrosion and apply a very thin coating of

Grease for Clutch Disc Shaft Splines - G 000 100- to the

splines. Then move the clutch plate back and forth on the input

shaft until the hub moves freely on the shaft. Excess grease

must be removed.

– If the transmission is replaced, transfer the transmission shift

lever and the relay lever.

– Clean any locking compound residue from all threaded holes

using a tap.

– Check whether there are centering sleeves for the engine/

transmission in the cylinder block; install if necessary.

If the alignment sleeves are missing, it will be difficult to shift, there

will be clutch problems and the transmission may make noises

(loose rattling).
– Make sure the intermediate plate is engaged on the sealing

flange and pushed onto the alignment sleeves -arrows-.

– Check the release bearing for wear. Replace the clutch slave

cylinder with release bearing if necessary. Refer to
