      • Loosen the insert nut against the direction of travel in clockwise direction. The propeller shaft assembly must be loosened on the insert nut only and exclusively in the direction of rotation otherwise the anti-twist lock of the bi-hexagonal flange nut is damaged.
      • In the event of a damaged anti-twist lock on the bi-hexagonal flange nut: Replace the rear axle differential.

      The mark makes it possible for the propeller shaft assembly with center bearing to be installed again in the same position. This should prevent a humming noise from the drive train during driving.
