Removing transmission
Dismantling
1. Remove the cross member
2. Dismantle the coolant hoses and container
3. Disconnect the electrical connection for the reversing light switch.
4. Remove the electric cable (positive lead). Do this by removing the container from the transmission -arrows- and disconnecting the lead in the B-Plus box -1-.
5. Disconnect shift -1 -and selection cables -2-from the transmission.
Note: Protect drive shafts against mechanical damage (e.g. with a rubber hose which has been cut open).
6. Remove drive shafts on transmission side. To do this, unscrew the six Allen screws joining each drive shaft and transmission flange. In order to stop the wheel being pulled round, it should be held still.
7. Disconnect hydraulic line for clutch control. Collect emerging brake fluid in a suitable container. Seal open lines with suitable plug.
Removing transmission
1. Unscrew fastening screws between stabilizer and engine mount, screw holding device P 9624/2 to stabilizer-engine mount, turn spindle upwards and support engine.
2. Place transmission jack under transmission and fasten fixing strap.
3. Remove transmission container.
4. Remove transmission support.
Note: The transmission can be lowered by a maximum of 25 mm to improve accessibility.
5. Unscrew fastening screws (8) between engine and transmission.
6. Move the transmission out downwards and towards the front by lowering the transmission jack step by step.
Installing transmission
Note: Before installing the transmission, clean splines of transmission input shaft and grease lightly, e.g. with Olista Longtime 3 EP.
Note: When positioning the transmission, make sure that the dowel sleeves are in the correct position in the crankcase.
1. Guide in the transmission, and screw in and tighten the fastening screws.
2. Remove plug from hydraulic line of clutch control and fit the line.
3. Fit transmission support.
4. Install transmission holder.
5. Release retaining strap and remove transmission jack.
6. Holding device P 9624/2 is to be removed from stabilizer-engine mount and screw stabilizer onto engine mount.
Assembly work
Note: Protect drive shafts against mechanical damage (e.g. with a rubber hose which has been cut open).
1. Fit drive shafts on the transmission side. To do this, screw in the six Allen screws joining each drive shaft and transmission flange and tighten screws. In order to stop the wheel being pulled round, it should be held still.
2. Engage shift -1 - (grey end piece) and selector cable -2- (blue end piece) into support bracket for transmission and press end pieces onto ball heads.
3. Fit the electric cable (positive lead). Do this by fitting the holder on the transmission -arrows- and connecting cables in the B-Plus box -1 -.
4. Establish electrical connection to the reversing light switch.
5. Fit the coolant hoses and container.
6. Remove the cross member

1. Check transmission oil and, if necessary, top up.
2. Bleed the clutch hydraulic system.
3. Fit underbody panels.
4. Lower the vehicle.
5. Connect the battery.
