Pressure Plate: Service and Repair
SAC Clutch Pressure Plate Adjuster Ring, Resetting
SAC clutch pressure plate adjuster ring, resetting, 01E, 6 Spd. M/T AWD
"SAC" stands for self-adjusting clutch.
When installing a new clutch plate with a used SAC pressure plate, the pressure plate adjuster ring must be turned back to the limit stop. If the
pressure plate adjuster ring is not turned back, the SAC pressure plate functions at a reduced pressure, resulting in increased wear of the clutch and in
particular of the clutch plate (clutch slips).
If the clutch plate is not replaced, the adjuster ring does not require resetting.
New SAC pressure plates are pre-set and consequently do not require resetting.
-
Insert 3 pressure plate securing bolts -A- in the fixing holes of the pressure plate at a 120° offset (1/3 turn) as indicated in the illustration.
-
Screw 3 nuts -B- (M8) onto bolts -A- and tighten slightly.
-
Position SAC pressure plate on the pressing tool in such a way that only the 3 bolt heads rest upon it.
-
Center special tool 3062 on the center of the pressure plate.
