Sealing Flange, Flywheel Side: Notes
Special Tools And Workshop Equipment Required
- Torque Wrench V.A.G 1331
- Assembly tool V.A.G 1332/11
- Assembly tool T10134
- Caliper gauge
- Three bolts M6 x 35 mm
- Two bolts M7 x 35 mm
Pressing Out
To improve clarity, the work procedures will be shown with the engine removed.
The work procedures are the same with the engine installed and removed.
-- Remove the dual mass flywheel DUAL MASS FLYWHEEL .
-- Remove the intermediate plate.
-- Set engine to TDC cyl. 1 TOOTHED BELT .
-- Remove oil pan OIL PAN .
-- Remove the engine speed (RPM) sensor -G28- -arrow- using a commercially available ball head socket insert.
-- Remove the sealing flange bolts.
Sealing flange and sensor wheel are pressed off together from the crankshaft using three bolts M6 x 35 mm.
-- Screw three bolts M6 x 35 mm into the threaded holes -arrows- of the sealing flange.
-- Screw the bolts alternating (max. one 1 /2 turn (180°) per bolt) into the sealing flange and press the sealing flange together with the sensor wheel off from the crankshaft.
Pressing In
Sealing flange with PTFE seal is equipped with a sealing lip support ring. This support ring serves the same function of an assembly sleeve and must not be removed before installation.
The sealing flange and sensor wheel must not be separated or rotated after being removed from the replacement part packaging.
The sensor wheel retains the installation position via being located on the locating pin of the assembly tool T10134.
The sealing flange and seal are one unit and may only be replaced together with the sensor wheel.
The assembly tool T10134 retains the installation position to the crankshaft via a guide pin, which is guided into the bore of the crankshaft.
Assembly Tool T10134
A - Tension surface
B - Nut
C - Assembly bell
D - Locating pin
E - Socket head hex bolt
F - Guide pin for diesel engines (red handle)
G - Guide pin for gasoline engines (black handle)
Mounting Seal with Sensor Wheel on Assembly Tool
-- Screw on the nut -B- until shortly before the tension surface -A- of the threaded spindle.
-- Tension the assembly tool T10134 in a vise on the tension surface -A- of the threaded spindle.
-- Press the assembly bell -C- downward so that it rests on the nut -B- -arrow-.
Inner part of the assembly tool and assembly bell must be on the same level.
-- Remove the securing clip -arrow- from the new sealing flange.
The sensor wheel must not be removed from or rotated in the sealing flange.
-- The locating pin -A- on the sensor wheel -C- must align with the marking -B- on the sealing flange.
-- Place the front side of the sealing flange onto a clean level surface.
-- Press the sealing lip support ring -A- in -direction of arrow- downward until it rests on the level surface.
-- The upper edge of the sensor wheel and the front edge of the sealing flange must align -arrows-.
-- Place the front side of the sealing flange onto the assembly tool T10134 so that the locating pin -B- is positioned in the bore -A- of the sensor wheel.
Make sure that all sealing flange is positioned flat on the assembly tool.
-- While tightening the knurled bolts -A-, press the sealing flange and sealing lip support ring -B- onto the surface of the assembly tool T10134 so that the locating pin can no longer slip out of the bore of the sensor wheel.
Make sure that, when installing the sealing flange, the sensor wheel remains located in the assembly tool.
Mounting Assembly Tool with Sealing Flange on Crankshaft Flange
- Crankshaft flange must be free of oil and grease.
- Engine cyl. 1 is at TDC.
-- Screw the nut -B- to the end of the threaded spindle.
-- Press the threaded spindle of the assembly tool T10134 in -direction of arrow- until the nut -B- rests on the assembly bell -A-.
-- Position the flattened side of the assembly bell toward the oil pan sealing surface side of the crankcase.
-- Secure the assembly tool T10134 onto the crankshaft flange using the socket head hex bolts -A-.
Screw the socket head hex bolts -A- approximately 5 threads into the crankshaft flange.
-- Screw two bolts M7 x 35 mm -A- into the cylinder block to guide the sealing flange.
Bolting Assembly Tool to Crankshaft Flange
-- Push the assembly bell -C- by hand in -direction of arrow- until the sealing lip support ring -B- rests on the crankshaft flange -A-.
-- Push the guide pin for diesel engines (red handle) -D- into the bore of the crankshaft. Thereby the sensor wheel is retained in the final installed position.
The guide pin for gasoline engines (black handle) -F- must not be inserted into the threaded bore of the crankshaft.
-- Hand tighten both socket head hex bolts of the assembly tool.
-- Screw the nut -E- onto the threaded spindle so far by hand, until it rests against the assembly bell -C-.
Pressing Sensor Wheel with Assembly Tool to Crankshaft Flange
-- Tighten the nut of the assembly tool T10134 with torque Wrench V.A.G 1331 and socket insert V.A.G 1332/11 to 35 Nm.
After tightening the nut to 35 Nm, a minimal air gap must still be present between the cylinder block and sealing flange.
