5 Notes on dual clutch gearbox 0BH

5.1 General notes

Gearbox
The layout of the dual clutch gearbox 0BH „S tronic“ is basically similar to that of a 7-speed manual gearbox. The engine torque is transferred to the gearbox via the dual-mass flywheel. The two multi-plate clutches are controlled hydraulically and actuated al‐ ternately so that the gearbox is operated like an automatic gear‐ box, in other words the gears are engaged automatically (but can also be selected manually via the tiptronic function). There is no clutch pedal. For further information please refer to ⇒ Self-study programme No. 454 ; 7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0BT .
Selector mechanism
In selector lever position „P“ the selector lever cable is used to engage the parking lock mechanically. All other gearshift com‐ mands and selector lever positions are transmitted via the CAN data bus from the selector lever -J743- (selector mechanism) to the mechatronic unit for dual clutch gearbox -E313- .
Gear oil (gearbox and bevel box)
The dual clutch gearbox „0BH“ has a common oil system.
This oil system lubricates the gears and shafts, the final drive, the clutches and the mechatronic unit for dual clutch gearbox -J743- .
Note
Use only the correct type of gear oil for dual clutch gearbox „0BH“ (available as a replacement part). Other types of oil will cause malfunctions and/or failure of the gearbox; for part number refer to ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .
The bevel box has a separate oil filling ⇒ page 115 .
Note
Use only the correct type of gear oil (available as a replacement part) for the bevel box. Other types of oil will cause malfunctions and/or failure of the bevel box; for part number refer to ⇒ Elec‐ tronic parts catalogue .
When does the gear oil filter have to be changed?
Note
The gear oil filter does not always require replacement.
Do not change the filter if:
♦ The gear oil cooler or its O-rings have been renewed and no
coolant has entered the oil system.
♦ Oil seals or O-rings have been renewed in the gearbox.
♦ The oil pan or mechatronic unit have been renewed.
♦ The maintenance interval has been reached.

7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0BH (S tronic) - Edition 09.2010
The filter must be changed if:
♦ Metal particles are found in the oil.
♦ The clutch is burnt out or mechanically defective.
Disposal regulations for oils
Drained oil must be disposed of properly.
♦ Improper disposal of used oil endangers the environment.
♦ It must not be mixed with solvents, brake fluid, coolant or sim‐
ilar.
♦ Please observe the information shown on the packaging of the
oil.
Variation of gear-change points for gradients
An additional gear change map automatically selects gear changes for gradients depending on accelerator pedal position and driving speed.
Gear change map for extreme uphill gradients is matched to engine output
Gear change map for extreme downhill gradients is matched to the braking effect of the engine
Increased engine braking effect can also be obtained by di‐ rectly selecting a specific gear via the tiptronic function, e.g. when towing a trailer on downhill gradients

5.2 Safety functions of gearbox control unit

In the event of a failure of one or more components/sensors, the gearbox control unit will activate appropriate backup functions. This ensures that the gearbox will not be damaged, however, the function and quality of the gear shifts will be impaired.
Faults detected by the gearbox are classified in four different cat‐ egories.
♦ 1) The fault is stored and a backup programme enables the
vehicle to drive on (in some cases with restrictions). The driver will not be made aware of the problem, as it is not critical to driving safety or to the gearbox itself. The selector lever posi‐ tion display in the instrument cluster will continue to show the selector lever position currently engaged in the normal way. If at all, the driver will only notice the fault if he experiences driveability problems, and will then automatically contact an Audi Service Partner to identify the cause.
♦ 2) Certain positions on the selector lever position display in the
instrument cluster start to flash. This is to inform the driver that this particular selector lever position is currently not available. Example: position „D“ is not available when the selector lever is in position „R“ and the vehicle is still rolling backwards. In this case, selector lever position „D“ will start to flash on the selector lever position display in the instrument cluster. The gearbox control unit prevents the 1st gear from being engaged in order to avoid damage to the gearbox. 1st gear will be en‐ gaged once the vehicle has come to a standstill.
♦ 3) The complete selector lever position display in the instru‐
ment cluster is lit up and flashing. The current selector lever position is indicated in the instrument cluster (e.g. „D“ is high‐ lighted). This is an indication that the gearbox has been over‐ loaded or the maximum temperature in the gearbox has been exceeded (overheating), e.g. towing a load that was too heavy.
♦ 4) If the complete selector lever position display in the instru‐

7 Repair instructions

Proper tools and the maximum possible care and cleanliness are essential for satisfactory gearbox repairs. The usual basic safety precautions also naturally apply when carrying out repair work.
A number of generally applicable instructions for the various re‐ pair procedures are summarised here. They apply to the work described in this Manual.
Guided Fault Finding, vehicle self-diagnosis and testing system
♦ Before servicing the gearbox, the cause of the fault should be
identified as exactly as possible using the vehicle diagnostic tester via Guided Fault Finding , Vehicle Self-diagno-
sis and Test Instruments.
Special tools
For a complete list of special tools used in this Workshop Manual ⇒ "Workshop equipment and special tools" .
Gearbox
♦ Do not run the engine or tow the vehicle with the oil pan re‐
moved or when there is no gear oil in the gearbox.
♦ When installing a replacement gearbox, the gear oil level must
be checked and topped up if necessary ⇒ page 63 . For ca‐ pacities refer to ⇒ page 3 , for specifications refer to ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .
♦ When installing gearbox, ensure that dowel sleeves are fitted
correctly.

7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0BH (S tronic) - Edition 09.2010
O-rings, oil seals and gaskets
♦ Renew O-rings, oil seals and gaskets.
♦ After removing gaskets and seals, always inspect the contact
surface on the housing or shaft for burrs resulting from removal or for other signs of damage.
♦ Renew gaskets: completely remove the old gasket and clean
the sealing surfaces thoroughly.
♦ Lightly lubricate O-rings with gear oil before installation to pre‐
vent them being trapped and damaged during assembly.
♦ Lightly oil the outer circumference of oil seals and fill the space
between the sealing lips -arrow- about half full with sealing grease -G 052 128 A1- .
♦ Do not use any other lubricants where gear oil is specified.
Otherwise, there is a risk of problems occurring in the gearbox hydraulics.
♦ The open side of the oil seal should face the side containing
the fluid.
♦ Observe rules for cleanliness ⇒ page 12 .
♦ After installing, check the gear oil level ⇒ page 63 or
⇒ page 115 and rectify as necessary.
Locking elements
♦ Do not over-stretch circlips.
♦ Renew circlips which have been damaged or over-tensioned.
♦ Circlips must be properly seated in the base of the groove.
Nuts, bolts
♦ Slacken bolts in reverse sequence to the specified tightening
sequence.
♦ Nuts and bolts which secure covers and housings should be
loosened and tightened in diagonal sequence and in stages if no tightening sequence is specified.
♦ Renew self-locking nuts.
♦ Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts which are se‐
cured with locking fluid. Then install bolts with locking fluid; for locking fluid refer to ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .
♦ The tightening torques stated apply to non-oiled nuts and
bolts.
♦ Where instructions specify a torque setting plus an additional
angle, these bolts must be tightened to the specified torque and then turned through the specified angle, e.g. 40 Nm + 90° (90° = a quarter turn).
Audi TT 2007 ➤

7.1 Contact corrosion!

Contact corrosion can occur if non-approved fasteners are used on the vehicle (bolts, nuts, washers etc.).
For this reason, only fasteners with a special surface coating are fitted.
Rubber or plastic parts and adhesives also consist of non-con‐ ductive materials.
If you are not sure whether used parts can be re-installed, always fit new parts ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue .

Please note:
♦ Use only genuine spare parts: these have been fully tested
and are compatible with aluminium.
♦ We recommend the use of accessories approved by Audi.
♦ Damage resulting from contact corrosion is not covered by the
warranty.

7.2 Rules for cleanliness

♦ Carefully clean connection points and the surrounding area
with engine cleaner or brake cleaner and dry thoroughly before opening.
♦ Use cleaning fluid -D 009 401 04- to clean the gearbox and its
components.
♦ Use lint-free cloths for cleaning, such as the „WYPALL X70 /
WORKHORSE“ cloth from Kimberly-Clark Professional.
♦ Seal off open lines and connections immediately with clean
plugs or sealing caps from engine bung set -VAS 6122- im‐ mediately.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them over.
Use sheeting and paper. Use lint-free cloths.
♦ Carefully cover or seal open components if repairs cannot be
carried out immediately.
♦ Only install clean components: do not remove replacement
parts from packaging until just before installation.
♦ Protect unplugged electrical connectors against dirt and mois‐
ture and make sure connections are dry when attaching.

♦ Removal wedge -3409-
♦ The selector lever lock solenoid -N110- locks the selector lever
in position „P“. The selector lever can then only be shifted out of position „P“ when the ignition is on / the engine is running, the brake pedal is depressed and the button on the selector lever handle is pressed ⇒ page 30 .
♦ In the event of a fault in the power supply to the selector lever
lock solenoid (discharged battery or defective fuse) or if the solenoid is defective, the selector lever cannot be shifted out of position „P“. The vehicle cannot be moved because the parking lock is engaged.
In this case:
– Check fuses ⇒ Current flow diagrams, Electrical fault finding
and Fitting locations.
– Check battery voltage ⇒ Electrical system; General informa‐
tion; Rep. gr. 27 .
If fault finding has not been successful and selector lever can still not be shifted from „P“ the solenoid can be released manually. However, if the selector lever is then moved back to „P“ it will remain locked in position „P“ once again.
Procedure
– Unclip selector lever boot on both sides using removal wedge
-3409- and lift it off -arrows-.
– Pull selector lever boot up and over handle.

However, if the selector lever is now moved back to „P“ the se‐ lector lever lock solenoid will once again mechanically lock it in position „P“. The solenoid must be released once again.
4.2 Checking selector mechanism and igni‐ tion key removal lock
♦ It should not be possible to operate the starter while the se‐
lector lever is in position „S“, „D“ or „R“ or in the tiptronic position.
♦ When travelling at speeds above 5 km/h and shifting into se‐
lector lever position „N“, the solenoid for the selector lever lock must not engage and block the selector lever. The selector lever can be shifted into a driving gear.
♦ When travelling at speeds below 5 km/h (almost stationary)
and shifting into selector lever position „N“, the solenoid for the selector lever lock should only engage after about 1 second. Selector lever cannot be shifted out of position „N“ until brake pedal is depressed.
Selector lever in position „P“ and ignition switched off:
The ignition key can be removed.
Selector lever in any position other than „P“ and ignition switched off:
The ignition key cannot be removed.
Selector lever in position „P“, button on selector lever pressed in and ignition switched on:
Brake pedal not depressed:
When button is pressed in, selector lever is locked and cannot be shifted out of position „P“. The solenoid for selector lever lock blocks the selector lever.
Brake pedal depressed:
