TT Quattro Coupe V6-3.2L (BHE) (2005)
Note:
^
Due to the hard material of the CV joint boot (as opposed to rubber), a stainless steel hose clamp is required; this can only be tightened using CV
joint boot clamp tool V.A.G1682.
^
Tightening torque: 25 Nm.
^
Use torque wrench with 5 to 50 Nm range (e.g. V.A.G1331).
^
Make sure thread of spindle on pliers moves freely. Lubricate with MoS2 grease if necessary.
^
If the thread is stiff (e.g. due to dirt), the required clamping force will not be attained at the hose clamp with the specified tightening torque.
