Adjusting Shim "S6" For Positioning Center Differential, Determining
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Ruler (2 pc.) T40100
- Digital Depth Gauge (for example VAS6087)
This adjustment is necessary when replacing the following parts:
- Transmission cover
- Spacer Sleeve
- Spur gear
- Tapered roller bearing on the spur gear
- The outer race/tapered roller bearing for the gear wheel mounting is installed inside the transmission cover.
- The spur gear and the spacer sleeve -1- are installed.
-- Mount the Ruler (2 pc.) T40100 on the clean joint surface on the transmission cover.
-- Measure from the spacer sleeve -1- to the Ruler using the digital depth gauge -2- (for example Digital Depth Gauge VAS6087). Press the spur gear downward, toward the transmission cover, in -direction of arrow-.
In this example, the dimension -a- = 5.13 mm.
-- Add the height of the Ruler (2 pc.) T40100 to this measurement.
| Example: | ||
|---|---|---|
| The value read on the digital depth gauge (dimension -a-) | 5.13 mm | |
| + | Ruler (2 pc.) T40100 height | 39.70 mm |
| = | Measuring range (total dimension) | 44.83 mm |
Determine shim according to table. Refer to ADJUSTING SHIM "S - Measuring range (total dimension).
| Measuring range (total dimension) | Shim "S6 " |
|---|---|
| Measured value (mm) | Thickness (mm) |
| 44.30 to 44.40 | 1.41 |
| 44.40 to 44.50 | 1.31 |
| 44.50 to 44.60 | 1.21 |
| 44.60 to 44.70 | 1.11 |
| 44.70 to 44.80 | 1.01 |
| 44.80 to 44.90 | 0.91 |
| 44.90 to 45.00 | 0.81 |
| 45.00 to 45.10 | 0.71 |
NOTE:
Allocate adjustment shims.
-- The shim thickness "S6 " in this example is 0.91 mm.
