Input Shaft With 7 Lining Discs, Adjusting With Air Gap Determination



Input shaft with 7 lining discs, adjusting with air gap determination - 01J, Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)

Note:
^ Observe general repair notes.
^ Refer to Rules of cleanliness for working on automatic transmissions.

^ All components must be cleaned thoroughly before inserting.

Clutch measurement





Note:
^ Distance - K - of the clutch from the upper contact ring shim on the shaft (Thrust plate contact surface) is determined.
^ The corrugated spring washer -1- is installed under the disc pack to perform measurements.





- Place input shaft on assembly tool T10219/1.





- Insert new lower adjustment disc -1- of same thickness as old in input shaft cylinder -A-.

- Insert corrugated spring washer -2-.

Note:
^ The corrugated spring washer is installed at the bottom only for measurement, it is installed again at the time during assembly.

- Insert alternately and with same alignment each lining disc -3- (7 pieces) and outer disc -4- (6 pieces, 1.9 mm thickness).





Lining disc alignment:

CAUTION!
^ The lining discs must be installed with the same alignment, that is the places without outside teeth -arrows- must always lie one on top of the other. Only in this way is the adjustment correct; you must mark the cylinder for correct installation, if necessary.


Note:
^ With old version of input shaft, only 6 lining discs and 5 outer discs are installed. They must be replaced with new disc pack with 7 lining discs and 6 outer discs.





- Last, insert new upper shim -5- of same thickness as old in input shaft.

Note:
^ For the following measurements, all tool and component surfaces must be completely clean in order to obtain exact values.





- Place 4 calipers T40101 on upper shim.





- Lay a ruler T40100 centered over every 2 calipers T40101.





- Measure shim with digital depth gauge VAS 6087 and note measurement -A-.

^ Digital depth gauge VAS 6087 must lie flush on both rulers T40100 when measuring.





- Measure with digital depth gauge VAS 6087 on shaft contact ring (Thrust plate contact surface) and note measurement -B-.





- Subtract both measurements "B A" , to obtain clutch distance - K -.

Clutch distance calculation - K -: "B A = K"

Note:
^ The corrugated spring washer -1- is installed under the disc pack to perform measurements.

- Repeat measurement on opposite side of input shaft and also determine clutch distance - K -.

- Insert 4 calipers T40101 and 2 rulers T40100 at 90° on input shaft and repeat measurements.

- Using 4 values determined for clutch distance - K - , calculate average M K.

Average: " (Value 1 + Value 2 + Value 3 + Value 4): 4 = M K "

Thrust plate measurement
- First check for damage and replace, if necessary.

- Rotate thrust play and lay on level and clean surface.





- Place 2 calipers T40101 on cleaned thrust plate running surface.

^ Calipers T40101 must lie completely on clean running surfaces and must not lie on edge





- Lay rulers T40100 centered on calipers T40101.

- Measure shim with digital depth gauge VAS 6087 on upper running surface and note measurement -A-.





- Measure with digital depth gauge VAS 6087 on lower running surface and note measurement -B-.

- Subtract value of both measurements "B A" to determine distance "D" of both running surfaces to thrust plate.

Thrust plate distance calculation "D": "B A = D"

- Repeat measurement on 2 additional places on thrust plate off-set at 120°.

- Using these three measurements, calculate thrust plate average M D.

Average: " (Value 1 + Value 2 + Value 3): 3 = M D "

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





Air gap specified value: 1.8 ± 0.2 mm.

If specified value is not obtained:

A-Measured value too small:

- Insert corresponding thinner adjustment disc, lower adjustment disc must also be replaced, if necessary.

- Check air gap again after installing new adjustment disc.

B-Measured value too large:

- Insert corresponding thicker adjustment disc, lower adjustment disc must also be replaced, if necessary.

- Check air gap again after installing new adjustment disc.

Following adjustment discs are available:

Available Adjustment Discs [Thickness In mm]:





If specified value is obtained:





- Remove all adjustment discs, lining discs, outer discs and the corrugated spring washer -5- , -4- , -3- , -2- and -1- from input shaft cylinder -A-.

CAUTION!
This step is necessary because the corrugated spring washer -2- is only installed over the lower adjustment disc -1- in order to adjust the input shaft. When assembling the input shaft, the corrugated spring washer is installed in the upper position.


- Assemble input shaft.
