4.3.4 Nuts and bolts
♦ Loosen and tighten securing bolts and nuts for covers and
housings diagonally.
♦ Do not cant especially delicate parts, such as clutch pressure
plates. Loosen and tighten bolts and nuts in stages in a diag‐
onal sequence.
♦ Torque settings are specified for unoiled bolts and nuts.
♦ Always renew self-locking bolts and nuts.
♦ Ensure with threaded connections that contact surfaces as
well as nuts and bolts are rewaxed only after assembly, if nec‐
essary.
♦ Threads of bolts secured with locking fluid must be cleaned
with a wire brush. Then insert bolts with locking fluid -
AMV 185 101 A1- .
♦ Clean threaded holes in which self-locking bolts or bolts with
locking fluid have been inserted, e.g. with a thread chaser.
Otherwise there is a danger that the bolts may shear when
removed again.
4.3.5 Bearings
♦ Install needle bearings with lettered side (thicker metal) to‐
wards fitting tool.
♦ Lubricate all gearbox bearings with gear oil before installing.
♦ Tapered roller bearings fitted to one shaft must be renewed as
a set. Use same make of bearings.
♦ Heat inner races to about 100° C with the inductive heater -
VAS 6414- before installing.
♦ Do not interchange outer or inner races of bearings of the
same size. The bearings are matched in pairs.
4.3.6 Shims
♦ Measure shims at several points with a micrometer. The var‐
ious thicknesses make it possible to achieve the exact shim
thickness required.
♦ Check for burrs and damage.
♦ Install only flawless shims.
