Clutch E






Clutch E

Disassembling

- Place clutch "E" - 1 - in mounting device (T10283).





- Remove circlip - 1 - and remove plate pack - 2 - from cylinder "E".





- Press diaphragm plate down under shop press using installation bracket (T10276).





- Remove circlip - 1 -.

- Release shop press.

- Remove diaphragm plate - 7 -.





- Remove dished washer - 5 -.

- Twist cylinder "E".

CAUTION!
Wear eye protection.

- Carefully press piston "E" out of cylinder " E" with compressed air.





Assembling

CAUTION!
Before assembling, check components of clutch "E" for wear and damage. Refer to => [ Clutch E ] Clutch E.

- Replace O-rings - 2 - and - 4 - for piston "E" - 3 -.





- Press piston "E" - 3 - into cylinder " E" - 1 - as far as stop.

- Insert dished washer - 5 -.

- Replace O-ring - 6 - on diaphragm plate - 7 -.

- Insert diaphragm plate - 7 - into cylinder " E" - 1 -.

8 Circlip

- Press diaphragm plate down under shop press using installation bracket (T10276).





- Insert new circlip - 1 -.

CAUTION!
Do not over-stretch circlip. After installing, check proper seating of circlip.

- Release shop press.

- Insert waved washer - 2 - into cylinder "E " - 1 -.





- Install outer plates - 3 - and coated plates - 4 - alternately.

- Install thick outer plates - 5 -.

Ensure rounded edges of thick outer clutch disc faces toward lining disc - 4 - and not toward circlip - 6 -. This improves circlip contact surface.

- Insert circlip - 6 -.

Adjust clutch "E" air gap





- Secure pre-tensioning tool (T10285) with wide base in vise.

- Install clutch "E" in pre-tensioning tool.

Input shaft projects through bore in base plate.

- Place plate (T10291) on outer clutch disc "E".

Plate must not touch circlip all around.

- Insert pressure unit (T10285/1) with centering pin into bore of plate.

- Align clutch "E" on plate of pre-tensioning tool.

The pressure unit must be centrally positioned under spindle thrust piece.

- Turn spindle of pre-tensioning tool downward.

The markings at the inspection hole of the pressure unit must align - arrow -.

- Insert dial gauge (VAS 6080) into measuring bar (VW 382/7) and tighten knurled nut.

- Apply measuring bar at upper edge of cylinder "E", as depicted in illustration.

- Check whether measuring bar makes proper contact at edge of cylinder " E".

- Position measuring tip on outer plate and note measuring value.

- Mark exact contact point on cylinder "E".

- Repeat measurement at 2 other points of outer plate, 120° offset each, and mark contact points.

- Average over 3 measured values under load.

- Release spindle and remove plate.

- Reach with both hands into clutch "E" and pull plate pack upward until stop.





- When disc pack is pulled up, measure distance between upper edge of cylinder "E" and outer disc (2nd technician required) at one of the marked points.

- Repeat measurement at 2 other marked points of outer plate.

- Average over 3 measured values when plate pack is pulled up.

- Determine air gap on the basis of the following calculations:





- Subtract average of measured values when plate pack is pulled up from average of measured values under load.

Clutch "E" air gap - Automatic Transmission 01V Front Wheel Drive





Clutch "E" air gap - Automatic Transmission 01V All Wheel Drive





If specified value is not obtained:





- Determine new circlip - 1 - according to the following table.

Disregard - 2 -.

Air gap too small: Install respectively thinner circlip.

Air gap too large: Install respectively thicker circlip.





- Check air gap of circlip again after inserting.
