Observe the following points during assembly.
-
Make sure the heat shields overlap correctly -arrow-.
-
There should not be any continuous gaps along the entire length of the heat shields.
-
A gap of up to 2 mm wide and 30 mm long is permissible locally.
-
More than 80 % of the total sealing area must be sealed off without gaps.
-
The following minimum gap dimensions must be observed.
NOTE: All measurements refer to the position -V = 280 mm-.
Correct assembly of the heat shields
1. After fitting the rear apron, check gap dimension -W- Adjustment value: 40 mm- between cover plate on the exhaust system -1- and the lower
retaining strip -2-. The heat shield must not project over -Z- the lower retaining strip by more than the demension. Adjustment value: 2 mm-.
Subsequent work
Install rear apron.
