Overview of adjustments
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 1995 Volkswagen Jetta III, 1995 Volkswagen Golf III, 1995 Volkswagen Cabrio, 1994 Volkswagen Jetta III, and 1994 Volkswagen Golf III. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
The following list refers to items in Fig 1.
- - Input gear

- - Differential
- Adjusting. See DIFFERENTIAL, ADJUSTING .
- - Shim for input gear
- Determine thickness from table. See TABLE OF SHIMS FOR DRIVE PINION AND INPUT GEAR .
- Determine Part No. from parts catalog microfiche
- - Shim for drive pinion

- Determine Part No. from parts catalog microfiche
- - Shim for differential
- - Tapered roller bearings for input gear
- Always replace together
- Measure friction torque via pinion shaft. Friction torque of new tapered roller bearings must be 180-220 Ncm (16-20 in lb) greater than friction torque of pinion shaft
- - Tapered roller bearings for drive pinion
- Always replace together
- Re-determine correct shim thickness when replacing tapered roller bearings
- - Tapered roller bearings for differential
- Always replace together
- Measure friction torque via pinion shaft. Friction torque of new tapered roller bearings must be 60-80 Ncm (5-7 in lb) greater than friction torque of pinion shaft
