♦ Follow the information provided on oil packaging.
Transmission
♦ Do not run engine or tow the vehicle when the oil pan is re‐
moved or when there is no transmission fluid.
♦ Always clean the connection locations and the area around
them before loosening.
♦ During installation, make sure that the alignment bushings are
fitted correctly.
O-Rings, Gaskets, Seals
♦ O-rings, gaskets and seals must be replaced.
♦ After removing gaskets, examine contact surface on housing/
shaft for burr resulting from removal or for other signs of dam‐
age.
♦ Thoroughly clean housing joint surfaces before assembling.
♦ Replace paper gaskets, thoroughly clean sealing surfaces and
completely remove old seals.
♦ Lightly coat the seals with ATF along outer circumference and
along the sealing lip.
♦ Coat the O-rings with transmission fluid or Vaseline before in‐
serting them so they are not crushed during installation.
♦ Do not use any other lubricants in the gear oil area. Otherwise
there is a danger of malfunction of the transmission hydraulics.
♦ The open side of the seals point toward the fluid to be sealed
in.
♦ When installing the new shaft seals, make sure the sealing lip
does not run on the same point as the sealing lip of the old
seal (use insertion depth tolerances).
♦ Follow the guidelines for clean working conditions. Refer to
⇒ "4.1 Guidelines for Clean Working Conditions", page 5
Fasteners
♦ Do not overstretch the circlips.
♦ Replace damaged or stretched circlips.
♦ The circlips must fit completely inside the groove.
Bolts and Nuts
♦ Loosen the bolts opposite the tightening sequence.
♦ Nuts and bolts which secure covers and housings should be
loosened and tightened crosswise in stages if no tightening
sequence is specified.
♦ Replace the self-locking nuts.
♦ Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts that were
screwed in with locking compound. Install the bolts with Lock‐
ing Fluid - AMV 185 101 A1- .
♦ The tightening specifications stated apply to non-oiled nuts
and bolts.
