Assembling V6 DFI Engine
Information
If cold or excessively low-tempered components are sealed to each other by applying sealant, leaks can occur because of condensed water for Ming or components distorting. Components must have a uniform temperature of at least 17°C.
Arrangement of pistons and connecting rods
Information
- Detailed instructions for installing pistons must be observed at all times.
- The cast lugs, the twist lock (locking lugs) -1- and the flat side of the piston crown -2- are on the same side.
- Install crankshaft
> WM 134819 REMOVING AND INSTALLING CRANKSHAFT (CAYENNE TIP)
Information
- Bearing covers for the crankshaft are numbered 1 to 7 and the numbers can be read on the side facing the exhaust.
- Bearing no. 5 is a guide or thrust bearing with two thrust washers at the side.
- The twist locks or retaining lugs are on the same side.
- Bearing screws must be replaced.
- Bearing shells must be replaced. Use only identical color markings
- Oil bearing shells with engine oil and place them on the crankshaft/crankcase. Make sure that the twist lock > Twist lock is inserted clean in the crankcase.
- Always replace bearing shells. Observe relevant classification.
- Fit thrust bearing no. 5 with thrust washers -4- (insert using grease, lubricating groove facing outwards) and then fit the remaining bearing covers.
- Tap crankshaft bearing covers on securely as far as they will go using a rubber hammer so that the tightening torque will be accurate.
- Internal serration screws on the crankshaft bearing covers -2- must always be replaced and screwed in by hand.
- Then gradually tighten the bearing covers from the inside out to the specified torque -2- .
- As a test, turn the crankshaft several times to check that it turns smoothly.
- If the drive plate -6-
for the inductive pickup (speed sender) was removed from the crankshaft, the drive plate must be replaced.
- Tighten the countersunk screws -7- on the drive plate to the specified tightening torque.

- Oil connecting-rod bearing shells
Twist lock
Information
- Always replace the connecting-rod bearing shells and oil them before inserting them into the bearing covers.
- The connecting-rod big end and connecting-rod bearing caps must be aligned according to the cast lugs-B and C-. The retaining lugs of the connecting-rod bearing shells are on one side. Connecting-rod bearing caps are legible on alternate sides.
- Install connecting rod and connecting-rod bearing caps unrestrained. If necessary, remove them again, position the bearing caps by tapping lightly with a plastic hammer and then refit them.
- Assign connecting rod bearing caps correctly and screw in the connecting rod bolts -7- by hand. When doing so, make sure that the retaining lugs on the bearing shells are aligned.
- Carefully tap the connecting rod bearing caps -6- with a plastic hammer until they are seated correctly so that the tightening torque will be accurate.
- Tighten all connecting rod bearing screws -1- to the specified tightening torque.
- Turn the crankshaft several times to check that it turns smoothly.
- Align the crankshaft so that the gap -Arrow- on the drive plate for the inductive pickup is facing downwards (rough TDC presetting).

Information
Installation of oil pan
Check the best-before date on the sealing compound.
The oil pan must be installed within 5 minutes of applying the silicone sealant.
The bead of sealant that is applied must not be thicker than the specified thickness because otherwise excess sealant can get into the oil pan and can block the strainer in the oil pump intake pipe.
Allow the sealant to dry for at least 30 minutes after installing the oil pan. Only then can engine oil be filled in.
