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 - which were previously repeated at numerous
places in the Workshop Manual - are summarised here. They ap‐
ply to the work described in this Manual.
Special tools
♦ For a complete list of special tools used in this Workshop
Manual ⇒ Workshop equipment and special tools .
Gearbox
♦ Thoroughly clean all joints and connections and the surround‐
ing areas before dismantling.
♦ When installing, ensure that the dowel sleeves between the
engine and gearbox are correctly located.
♦ For allocation of bolts and other components, refer to ⇒ Elec‐
tronic parts catalogue .
♦ Clean contact surfaces when assembling mounting brackets
and waxed components. The contact surfaces must be free of
wax and grease.
♦ After installing a replacement gearbox, check oil level and top
up with gear oil as required ⇒ page 95 .
♦ Capacities and specifications ⇒ page 1
Sealants
♦ Thoroughly clean joint surfaces on gearbox housing etc. be‐
fore applying sealing paste.
♦ Apply sealing paste -AMV 188 200 03- evenly and not too
thick.
♦ Breather holes must remain free of sealing paste.
Oil seals, seals, O-rings and gaskets
♦ Always renew seals, O-rings 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.
♦ Before installing oil seals, lightly oil the outer circumference of
the seal and fill the space between the sealing lips -arrowabout half full with grease -G 052 128 A1- .
♦ The open side of the oil seal should face the side containing
the fluid.
♦ When installing a new oil seal, position the seal in the housing
so that the sealing lip does not contact the shaft in the same
place as the old seal (make use of installation depth toleran‐
ces).
♦ Lightly lubricate O-rings with oil before installation to prevent
them being trapped during assembly.
♦ Check oil level after installing new gaskets, O-rings and oil
seals ⇒ page 95 .

♦ Always renew circlips which have been damaged or over-
stretched.
♦ Circlips must be properly seated in the base of the groove.
♦ Renew spring pins. Position: the slit -A- should be in line with
the line of force -arrow-.
Nuts, bolts
♦ Loosen the nuts and 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 and bolts.
♦ The tightening torques stated apply to non-oiled nuts and
bolts.
♦ Threaded holes which take self-locking bolts or bolts coated
with locking fluid must be cleaned (using a tap or similar). Oth‐
erwise there is a danger of the bolts shearing off the next time
they are removed.
♦ For all threaded connections, ensure that (where applicable)
the contact surfaces and the nuts and bolts are not coated with
wax until after assembly is completed.
Bearings
♦ Install new tapered roller bearings as supplied; do not lubricate
additionally with oil.
♦ Lubricate all bearings (except tapered roller bearings) with
gear oil before installing in gearbox.
♦ Use inductive heater -VAS 6414- to heat inner races of tapered
roller bearings to approx. 100°C before installing. Press home
onto stop when installing so there is no axial clearance.
♦ Do not interchange inner or outer races of bearings of the
same size.
♦ If required, renew the tapered roller bearings on one shaft to‐
gether and use new bearings from a single manufacturer.
♦ Install needle bearings so the lettering (side with thicker metal)
faces towards the installing tool.
Shims
♦ Use a micrometer to measure the shims at several points.
Tolerance variations make it possible to obtain the exact shim
thickness required.
♦ Check for burrs and damage. Install only shims which are in
perfect condition.
Synchro-rings

♦ Do not interchange synchro-rings. When reusing always fit to
the same gear.
♦ Check for wear; renew if necessary.
♦ Check the grooves -arrow 1- on synchro-ring -A- and on inner
ring for wear (flattened sections in grooves).
♦ Make sure that the coating of coated synchro-rings is not dam‐
aged.
♦ If an intermediate ring -B- is fitted, check the outer contact
surface -arrow 2- and inner contact surface -arrow 3- of the
intermediate ring for “scoring”, “visible traces of wear” and
“blue discolouration (caused by overheating)”.
♦ Check chamfer on selector gear for scoring and visible traces
of wear.
♦ Lubricate with gear oil before installing.
Gear wheels
♦ Clean before pressing on.
♦ Use inductive heater -VAS 6414- to heat to approx. 100°C be‐
fore installing. Press home onto stop when installing so there
is no axial clearance.
Selector gears and locking collars
♦ After installing, check 1st to 6th speed selector gears for min‐
imal axial play and freedom of movement.

D - Intact ends of internal splines on locking collar.
Clutch actuation
♦ When removing gearbox, remove clutch slave cylinder without
disconnecting pipes.
♦ Do not depress the clutch pedal after removing the slave cyl‐
inder if the hydraulic pipe is still connected. Otherwise the
piston will be pressed out of the slave cylinder.
♦ Ensure that the pressure plate is kept straight: loosen and
tighten bolts in a diagonal sequence and in several gradual
stages.
♦ If the clutch has burnt out, thoroughly clean the bell housing,
flywheel and parts of the engine facing the gearbox in order to
prevent odours.

♦ Before renewing the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder
on the assumption that it is defective you must first carry out
a function check
⇒ “2.1 Function check for clutch master cylinder and slave
cylinder”, page 10 .
♦ If slave cylinder is removed from gearbox with pipe/hose as‐
sembly still attached, make sure you do not press clutch pedal.
Otherwise, the piston will be pressed out of the slave cylinder
and be destroyed.
♦ After installing the slave cylinder, carefully press the clutch
pedal. If you feel an unusually strong point of resistance when
depressing the clutch pedal, you must not press it down fur‐
ther. The plunger of the slave cylinder is likely to have been
guided past the clutch release lever. The slave cylinder would
then be destroyed once pedal force exceeds approx. 300 N.
2.1Function check for clutch master cylin‐
der and slave cylinder
Before you renew the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder you
must - in the case of the following faults - first carry out the ap‐
propriate checks.
Noises when operating the clutch:
♦ First check the over-centre spring / clutch pedal switch for
noise.
♦ If you hear a noise, remove over-centre spring and repeat
check.
♦ Renew relevant component.
After releasing clutch pedal it still remains depressed / does not
return to its initial position.
♦ Check whether the clutch pedal returns all the way to its initial
position, thereby uncovering the vent opening in the master
cylinder.
♦ The vent opening is integrated in the clutch master cylinder. It
is not visible from the outside.
♦ The vent opening must be uncovered, otherwise the perma‐
nent self-bleeding function for the hydraulic clutch system will
no longer be effective.
♦ Make the customer aware that the driver must NOT rest his/
her foot on the clutch pedal for long periods of time. This could
impair the self-bleeding function of the clutch system as the
vent opening in the master cylinder can no longer function.
♦ The self-bleeding function of the clutch system can be im‐
paired if the footwell trim or floor mats get trapped, if the clutch
pedal switch jams or if the driver rests his foot on the clutch
pedal for long periods of time.
Check the complete hydraulic system for leaks.
♦ Check brake fluid level in brake fluid reservoir.
♦ Check clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder as well as the
pipe/hose assembly including connections for external leaks
(visual inspection).

To prevent the pressure plate from becoming distorted during re‐
moval (causes clutch grab when driving off), always adhere to the
following procedure when unbolting the pressure plate:
– Apply counter-hold tool -3067- in order to loosen bolts.
– Working clockwise, loosen all six bolts consecutively in steps
of 90° (1/4 turn) until the pressure plate is released.
•Stop -2- with pin -1- should come loose when the bolts are
slackened.
– If the stop does not come loose, push the pin towards the dual-
mass flywheel.
– Take off pressure plate and clutch plate.
Installing
•Tightening torque ⇒ page 37 .
Installation is carried out in reverse sequence; note the following:
Note
♦
The dual-mass flywheel, pressure plate and clutch plate are
matched together; components from another manufacturer
must not be installed on the same vehicle.
♦
Always renew clutch plate and pressure plate together and
select the correct parts according to engine code ⇒ Electronic
parts catalogue .
♦
If the clutch has burnt out, thoroughly clean the bell housing,
flywheel and parts of the engine facing the gearbox in order to
prevent odours.
♦
Clean input shaft splines and (in the case of a used clutch
plate) the hub splines. Remove corrosion and apply only a very
thin coating of grease -G 000 100- to the splines. Then move
clutch plate backwards and forwards on input shaft until hub
moves freely on shaft. It is important to remove excess grease.
♦
Pressure plates have an anti-corrosion coating and are
greased. Only the contact surface may be cleaned, otherwise
the service life of the clutch will be considerably reduced.
♦
Pressure plate contact surface and clutch plate lining must
make full contact with flywheel. Only then insert bolts.
♦
Check that dowel sleeves for centralising engine/gearbox are
in the cylinder block; install if necessary.
♦
If the dowel sleeves are not fitted, this will lead to gear-change
problems, clutch malfunction and in some cases gearbox
noise (gears will make rattling noises).
