Installing ATF Pan

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2019 Porsche 911, 2018 Porsche 911, 2017 Porsche 911, 2016 Porsche 911, and 2015 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Information 

Always use a new ATF pan and new aluminum screws.

The sealing faces of the transmission and ATF pan must be clean and dry for installation.

Before screwing in the new screws, blow out the threaded bore thoroughly with compressed air. Have a clean, lint-free cloth to hand to collect any emerging particles of dirt.

  1. Coat the sealing ring on the intake snorkel on the ATF pan with oil.

    Information 

    • Aluminum screws must always be replaced. 
    • Aluminum screws are secured using the yield-point-controlled method. 
    • To ensure that the screws are tightened uniformly, the specified tightening setting "light, medium or hard" must be used. 
    • The threshold torque (initial tightening) must be set on the?9768 - electronic torque wrench from 2 - 100 Nm (1.5 - 74 ftlb.) when tightening using the yield-strength procedure. 
  2. Fit the ATF pan on the transmission. Make sure that the sealing ring on the intake connection of the ATF pan is lying on the intake duct of the electrohydraulic control mechanism -arrow-  .

  4. Screw M6 screws into the ATF pan and tighten according to the specified sequence. Initial tightening 2.4 Nm (2 ftlb.) 

    Tighten M6 screws at "medium" setting.
