Servicing automatic gearbox 09E, four-wheel drive - Edition 12.2011
Note
The ATF strainer -A- only has to be renewed if it has been
♦
damaged.
If vehicle mileage is high, it is recommended to renew the ATF
♦
strainer when removing the oil pan.
Gearbox malfunctions will occur when the vehicle is driven if
♦
the ATF strainer -A- is not correctly installed.
If the ATF strainer -A- cannot be seated properly (i.e. if the
♦
strainer drops down at the rear), it must be renewed.
In most cases, the ATF strainer seal -A- will remain in place in
♦
the gearbox when the ATF strainer is removed. The illustration
shows the seal with the mechatronic unit removed.
This seal must be removed first if you want to renew the ATF
♦
strainer.
The seal can be reused if the old ATF strainer is reinstalled.
♦
Note the following if fitting a new ATF strainer:
– Carefully remove seal for ATF strainer -A- from gearbox using
a screwdriver or similar.
Note
Take care not to damage sealing surface.
♦
The new ATF strainer is supplied with the seal fitted.
♦
When fitting a new ATF strainer, press it into the gearbox with
♦
the seal already attached.
