7 Series E38 750i (M73) SAL
On side opposite crown wheel, fit an output flange and determine
friction torque using a bracket with welded on nut (in-house
manufacture) and special tool 00 2 000 (friction torque gauge).
Turn friction torque meter at speed of approx. 50 rpm.
The friction torque specified in the differentail case bearing table
should be reached, but must not be exceeded,
refer to Technical Data
If new shaft seals have already been installed, add 20 Ncm to
each seal in which an output shaft runs during the measuring
process.
If the specified friction torque is not achieved although both
bearing covers are not at specified
tightening torque, refer to Technical Data,
a thinner shim must be installed opposite the crown wheel and
the measurement should be repeated.
If the friction torque is reached, even though the second bearing
cap is not yet tightened to correct
tightening torque (refer to Technical Data),
use a thicker shim on the crown wheel end and repeat the
measuring procedures.
