Engine, installing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Audi A4, 2008 Audi A4, 2007 Audi A4, 2006 Audi A4, and 2005 Audi A4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
- During assembly, replace self-locking nuts and bolts.
- Always replace bolts that are tightened to torque as well as sealing rings, gaskets and O-rings.
- Hose connections and charge air system hoses must be free of oil and grease before installing.
- Secure all hose connections using hose clamps .
- During installation, all cable ties must be re-installed at the same location.
Vehicles with manual transmission:
- When installing a new clutch disc in combination with a used SAC clutch pressure plate (self-adjusting pressure plate), the adjustment ring of the pressure plate must be turned back to impact. Otherwise pressure plate works with decreased contact pressure (clutch slips) →

- 30 CLUTCH for 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION 02X, FOUR-WHEEL DRIVE
- 30 CLUTCH for 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION 0A3, ALL WHEEL DRIVE
NOTE:
- If clutch disc is not being replaced, the adjustment ring must not be turned back.
- New SAC-pressure plates are already pre-adjusted and must not be reset.
- Clean input shaft splines and (in case of used clutch plates) clean hub splines, remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of lubricant G 000 100 on splines. Do not grease guide sleeve.
- If necessary, check centering of clutch drive plate.
- Check clutch release bearing for wear and replace if necessary.
If plastic ring of clutch release bearing is loose:
- Use adhesive AMV 195 KD1 01 to glue plastic ring of clutch release bearing to bearing ring.
- 3 rectangular tabs - arrows - of the plastic ring reach into cutouts of bearing ring.
- If grooves with depth of more than 0.5 mm are present, release bearing must be replaced.
- A pilot needle bearing must be installed in crankshaft in engines for vehicles with manual transmission. Install needle bearing if necessary → Pulling out and driving in needle bearings from crankshaft .
Vehicles with automatic transmission:
- Clean transmission input shaft splines and splines of damper unit on flywheel, remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of lubricant G 000 100 on splines. Remove all excess grease.
All:
- Make sure centering sleeves for engine to transmission are installed in cylinder block. Install if necessary.
Fig 2: Identifying Intermediate Plate Is Hooked In At Sealing Flange And Is Pushed Onto Alignment Sleeves
- Make sure that the intermediate plate is hooked in at sealing flange and is pushed onto alignment sleeves - arrows -.
- Install intermediate plate between engine and transmission onto alignment sleeves.
- Adjoin engine to transmission and install one bolt hand-tight.
- Lower engine and at the same time guide threaded studs of engine mount into engine mount plates.
NOTE:
- Torque specifications only apply to lightly greased, oiled, phosphated or blackened nuts and bolts.
- Additional lubricants, such as engine or transmission oil are permissible, although lubricants containing graphite are not.
- Do not use any degreased parts.
- Tolerance for torque specifications ± 15%.
