3.1

Determining Clutch Manufacturer

Either a “Sachs” or a “LuK” clutch may be installed.

It is possible to tell which clutch the vehicle has with the trans‐

mission installed:

– Remove the noise insulation. Refer to ⇒ Body Exterior; Rep.

Gr. 50 ; Noise Insulation .

– Remove the noise insulation from the oil pan if necessary.

There are some openings -arrows- between the engine -A- and

the transmission -B- near the bottom of the oil pan.

– Check the outer contour of the flywheel through this opening.

– The outer contour of the flywheel can also be inspected by

removing -arrows- the small cover plate -A-.

Round Outer Contour -arrows- = Clutch Made by Sachs = -A-

– Clutch, removing and installing, Sachs. Refer to

⇒ “3.2 Sachs Clutch, Removing and Installing”, page 58 .

or

Round Outer Contour -arrows 1- and A Circulated Depression

-arrow 2- = Clutch Manufacturer, LuK = -B-

– Loosen the bolt diagonally in small steps.

When loosening, the stop -2- and the bolt -1- must loosen up

•

together.

– If the stop does not loosen: push the bolt toward the dual mass

flywheel.

– Remove the pressure plate and the clutch plate.

Installing

Install in reverse order of removal while. Note the following:

Note

♦ Allocate thrust plate and clutch disc according to the engine

code. Refer to the Parts Catalog.

♦ Check whether there are centering sleeves for the engine/

transmission in the cylinder block; install if necessary.

♦ If the alignment sleeves are missing, it will be difficult to shift,

there will be clutch problems and the transmission may make

noises (loose rattling).

Clutch Plate Installed Position

•

“Transmission side” label and the spring cage face the trans‐

mission.

Check the Ends of the Diaphragm Spring

•

Wear up to half the thickness of the diaphragm spring

-arrows- is permitted.

Checking the Spring Connections and Rivet Connections

– Check the spring connections between the pressure plate and

the cover for cracks and make sure the rivet connections are

tight.

•

Replace the pressure plate if the spring connections are dam‐

aged or if the rivet connections -arrows- are loose.

Note

♦ Replace clutch plates and pressure plates if the rivets are

damaged or loose.

♦ Allocate clutch disc and thrust plate using the engine code.

Refer to the Parts Catalog.

♦ Clean input shaft splines and (on used clutch plates) the hub

splines, remove corrosion and apply a very thin coating of

Grease for Clutch Disc Shaft Splines - G 000 100- to the

splines. Then move the clutch plate back and forth on the input

shaft until the hub moves freely on the shaft. Remove any ex‐

cess grease.

♦ The pressure plates are protected from corrosion and lubrica‐

ted. Only the running surfaces may be cleaned. Otherwise the

service life of the clutch will be shortened considerably.

♦ The pressure plate contact surface and the clutch plate lining

must completely touch the flywheel. Install the bolts.

– Move the Flywheel Retainer - 3067- during installation.

Engines Having A Crankshaft with A Smaller Diameter -arrow-,

or Engines Having A Needle Bearing -arrow- in the Crankshaft

Note

Ignore arrows -A and B-.

Continuation for All

When Installing, Tighten Bolts As Follows So Pressure Plate

Does Not Distort (Causing Shuddering on Acceleration):

– Make sure the stop pin (position sensor) -arrow- moves easily.

– Position the pressure plate on the centering pins.

– Install all the bolts evenly, by hand, until the bolt heads contact

the pressure plate.

•

When doing this, the stop pin -arrow- must lift off from the

pressure plate.

– Tighten the bolts in small steps and in diagonal sequence to

prevent damaging the centering holes of the pressure plate

and the centering pins of the dual mass flywheel -item 4-

⇒ Item 4 (page 62) .

– Install the transmission.
