Transmission, Replace

 

Drain transmission fluid from old transmission.

 

If the transmission is replaced, the following components should be modified:

 

- Fittings "A" for fluid coolant hoses - torque 38 Nm/28.03 lbf. ft.

 

Note:    On vehicles with transmission code "EF" and "EK",the steel plug must not be removed. These vehicles do not have a fluid cooler.

 

- Bracket for selector lever cable.

- 2 fluid coolant hoses

 

Object Number: 2374460  Size: DEFAULT

 

 

Note:    The fluid coolant hoses must be cleaned and then blown out with compressed air to remove residual fluid or abraded clutch lining remains.

 

- Selector lever position switch

 

Note:    The selector lever position switch should only be converted on vehicles with catalytic converter. On these vehicles, the selector lever position switch is on the transmission. For adjustment of selector lever position switch - see operation in this group.

 

Top up transmission fluid in new transmission - approx. 7 litres/1.54 gallons.

 

Important

 

The transmission code which is printed or stamped on the vehicle identification plate (on top of the the main case cover) (e.g. 83 EQ 1609), permits easy differentiation of the individual transmission types. This transmission code also contains information about the inner construction of the transmission - see "Technical Data".

 

The transmission code details all transmission components that are affected when an adjustment is made to the vehicle and engine to attain optimal shifting quality and driving efficiency. It is therefore very important that the transmission code be given in enquiries about maintenance operations.

 

If the transmission code and transmission number are not given exactly, a precise definition of the complaint is impossible.
