Input Shaft Overview

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Volkswagen Beetle and 2012 Volkswagen Beetle. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:

When installing new gears or a new input shaft, refer to CODES LETTERS, ALLOCATION AND CAPACITIES .

The input shaft must be adjusted because the position of the tapered roller bearing is affected when parts are replaced. Pay attention to the adjustment overview, refer to ADJUSTMENT OVERVIEW .

Replace both tapered roller bearings together.

Heat the toothed gear and synchronizer hub to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) using the Hot Air Blower V.A.G. 1416. Wear safety gloves.
