-- Place a spacer washer (85 mm outer circumference) -1- on grooved ball bearing -2-.
- Do not place any spacer washers above and below the grooved ball bearing.
- Flattened areas -A- on the grooved ball bearing and on bearing mount -B- must align in the transmission housing.
-- Mark the flattened areas with color.
-- Place a marking on the upper area of the grooved ball bearing and on the upper area of the transmission housing bearing mount (→ next illustration).
-- Heat the transmission housing using the hot air blower V.A.G 1416 in the area of the bearing seat for the grooved ball bearing/input shaft to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.
It is necessary to heat the transmission housing so that the grooved ball bearing is not damaged when the housing is being installed.
-- Align the marking on the grooved ball bearing -A- with the marking on the transmission housing -B- and mount the transmission housing.
Continuation for all transmissions
-- Heat the transmission housing using the hot air blower V.A.G 1416 in the area of the bearing seat for the grooved ball bearing/input shaft to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.
It is necessary to heat the transmission housing so that the grooved ball bearing is not damaged when the housing is being installed.
-- Apply sealing paste AMV 188 200 03 evenly onto the sealing surface of the clutch housing.
-- Install transmission housing and tighten new bolts -A-, -B- and -C- to tightening specification.
Allocation of bolts:
A - Bolt with permanent washer
B - Bolt without washer
C - Bolt with permanent washer
-- If a spacer washer was mounted on the grooved ball bearing before installation of the transmission housing, a spacer washer -1- (outer diameter = 78.6 mm) must also be installed after installation of transmission housing -2-, refer to FROM TRANSMISSION BUILD DATE 4.10.06 THROUGH APPROXIMATELY 1.21.08 .
-- Install circlip -1- for grooved ball bearing/input shaft.
-- Remove 30 - 211 A for input shaft.
-- If lock sleeve for selector shaft has been removed, drive it in now using T10169 until tool makes contact.
-- Turn transmission with opening for selector shaft in assembly stand upward.
-- Insert selector shaft -1- into lower mounting -2- and into shift forks -3-.
To improve clarity, the cap is removed.
-- Now press selector shaft -1- against lock sleeve -2- in direction of -arrow- and guide downward with shift finger -3- through shift forks until stop.
- Shift cover -4- must stand parallel to bolting surface on transmission housing during this.
- Selector shaft must be able to be moved easily in selector motion (up- and downward).
If shift cover stands at an angle to bolting surface, selector shaft is not inserted in lower bearing.
-- Tighten the bolts -3- for the shift cover -4-.
-- Install lock bolt -2-, lock bolt -arrow- must not be installed when doing so.
-- Install back-up light switch -F4- -1-.
-- Install left flange shaft. Refer to FLANGE SHAFT AND SEALS ON TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY OVERVIEW .
-- Drive in the input shaft sealing ring.
-- Install the clutch slave cylinder with release bearing. Refer to SLAVE CYLINDER WITH RELEASE BEARING .
-- Shift through all gears.
-- Drive cap into transmission housing to stop of T10042
Install bevel box in manual transmission as follows:
Risk of damaging sealing ring between transmission and bevel box.
- Place bevel box on transmission together with right flange shaft while turning shaft.
-- With manual transmission, lubricate differential splines with grease for clutch disc shaft splines G 000 100.
-- Slide on bevel box completely on manual transmission, while doing this, join splines of input shaft/bevel box centrally with differential.
-- With proper tooth position and central guiding, bevel box slips up to stop against manual transmission.
Do not pull bevel box with mounting bolts against manual transmission, otherwise bevel box is canted and mounting eyelets can break off.
-- Tighten 4 bevel box connecting bolts -arrows- (only 3 shown in illustration) at manual transmission. Tightening specifications, refer to item 10 under FLANGE SHAFT AND SEALS ON BEVEL BOX ASSEMBLY OVERVIEW .
-- Install right flange shaft. Refer to FLANGE SHAFT AND SEALS ON BEVEL BOX ASSEMBLY OVERVIEW .
