Places of input shaft, output shafts and final drive gear/differential must engage.

- Together with a 2nd technician, place the shafts and the differential into their bearing seats.

- Fasten the bracket (30 - 211 A) for the input shaft to the clutch housing.





For the sake of illustration, clutch housing is depicted rotated 180°.

- Screw in bolt - A - far enough until input shaft rises slightly.

With some transmissions, there are flattened areas - A - on the input shaft grooved ball bearing and on the bearing mount - B -.





Check the input shaft grooved ball bearing and the transmission housing.






From transmission build date 4.10.06 through approximately 1.21.08

One spacer washer is inserted above and below the input shaft grooved ball bearing - 6 - => [ Grooved Ball Bearing ] Input Shaft Assembly Overview.






Measure the Shoulder above the Grooved Ball Bearing Mount.










The Area Below the Grooved Ball Bearing Seat in the Transmission Housing has been Changed - arrow -










- Place a spacer washer (85 mm outer circumference) - 1 - on grooved ball bearing - 2 -.





In the Case of Transmissions with Flattened Areas - A - on the Grooved Ball Bearing for the Input Shaft and on Bearing Mount - B -





Do not place any spacer washers above and below the grooved ball bearing.

Flattened areas - A - on the grooved ball bearing and on bearing mount - B - must align in the transmission housing.

- Mark the flattened areas with color.

- Place a marking on the upper area of the grooved ball bearing and on the upper area of the transmission housing bearing mount (=> next illustration).

- Heat the transmission housing using the hot air blower (V.A.G 1416) in the area of the bearing seat for the grooved ball bearing/input shaft to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.

It is necessary to heat the transmission housing so that the grooved ball bearing is not damaged when the housing is being installed.

- Align the marking on the grooved ball bearing - A - with the marking on the transmission housing - B - and mount the transmission housing.





Continuation for all transmissions

- Heat the transmission housing using the hot air blower (V.A.G 1416) in the area of the bearing seat for the grooved ball bearing/input shaft to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.

It is necessary to heat the transmission housing so that the grooved ball bearing is not damaged when the housing is being installed.

- Apply sealing paste (AMV 188 200 03) evenly onto the sealing surface of the clutch housing.

- Install transmission housing and tighten new bolts - A -, - B - and - C - to tightening specification.





Allocation of bolts:

A Bolt with permanent washer
B Bolt without washer

Install bevel box in manual transmission as follows:

Risk of damaging sealing ring between transmission and bevel box.

Place bevel box on transmission together with right flange shaft while turning shaft.

- With manual transmission, lubricate differential splines with grease for clutch disc shaft splines (G 000 100).

- Slide on bevel box completely on manual transmission, while doing this, join splines of input shaft/bevel box centrally with differential.

- With proper tooth position and central guiding, bevel box slips up to stop against manual transmission.

Do not pull bevel box with mounting bolts against manual transmission, otherwise bevel box is canted and mounting eyelets can break off.
