Removing seal: –  Remove poly V-belt → Chapter. –  Remove toothed belt.    Engine code AXW → Chapter    Golf without split toothed belt guard (BLR, BLX, BLY, BVX, BVY, BVZ) → Chapter.    Touran without split toothed belt guard (BLR, BLX, BLY, BVX, BVY, BVZ) → Chapter.    Golf with split toothed belt guard (BVX, BVY, BVZ) → Chapter    Touran with split toothed belt guard (BVX, BVY, BVZ) → Chapter

–  Remove crankshaft sprocket. To do this, lock toothed belt pulley using counterhold tool -3415-.

–  To guide oil seal extractor, screw central bolt into crankshaft onto stop by hand. –  Unscrew inner part of oil seal extractor -3203- 9 turns (approx. 20 mm) from the outer part and lock in position with the knurled screw.

–  Lubricate threaded head of oil seal extractor -3203-, place it in position and, exerting firm pressure, screw it into oil seal as far as possible. –  Loosen knurled screw and turn inner part against crankshaft until the oil seal is pulled out. Installing seal: –  Remove oil residue from end of crankshaft journal using clean cloth.

–  Fit guide sleeve -T10053/1- onto crankshaft journal. –  Slide dry oil seal over guide sleeve onto crankshaft journal.

–  Press in seal using assembly tool -T10053- and bolt -T10053/2- (M16 x 1.5 x 60) to stop.

–  Install crankshaft pulley and lock in position with counterhold tool -3415-.   Note t  The contact surfaces between toothed belt pulley and crankshaft must be free of oil. t  The centre bolt must be renewed. t  Thread and shoulder must be free of oil and grease. –  Tighten new centre bolt to 90 Nm and turn 90° (1/4 turn) further (turning further can be done in several stages). Further assembly is basically the reverse of the dismantling procedure.
