Installing engine
l  Engine/gearbox unit attached to engine bracket -T10012-.
Installation is carried out in the reverse order; note the following:
  Note
t  Renew self-locking nuts and bolts when performing assembly work.
t  Renew bolts which are tightened to a specified angle as well as seals and gaskets.
t  Secure all hose connections with the correct type of hose clips (same as original equipment) → Electronic parts catalogue.
t  Fit all cable ties in the original positions when installing.
   
Vehicles with manual gearbox:
–  If not already fitted, install dowel sleeves -A- for centring engine and gearbox in cylinder block.
–  Check that clutch plate is correctly centred → Rep. gr.30.
–  Check clutch release bearing for wear; renew slave cylinder with release bearing if necessary.
–  Clean input shaft splines and (in the case of used clutch plates) the hub splines. Remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of grease for clutch plate splines -G 000 100- to the splines. Then move clutch plate back and forth on input shaft until the hub moves smoothly on the shaft. Remove any excess grease.
  A37-0214
Vehicles with dual clutch gearbox:
–  If not already fitted, install dowel sleeves -A- for centring engine and gearbox in cylinder block.
–  Clean input shaft splines on gearbox and splines of damper unit on flywheel; remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of grease for clutch plate splines -G 000 100- to the splines. Remove any excess grease.
–  A needle bearing must be fitted in the crankshaft on vehicles with dual clutch gearbox; install needle bearing if not already fitted → Chapter.
  A34-10045
All vehicles (continued):
–  Ensure that the intermediate plate is engaged on the sealing flange and pushed onto the dowel sleeves -arrows-.
–  Bolt gearbox to engine.
Vehicles with four-wheel drive:
–  Install bracket for bevel box → Rep. gr.34.
All vehicles (continued):
–  Install gearbox support → Rep. gr.34.
  Note
t  Tightening torques apply only to lightly greased, oiled, phosphated or black-finished nuts and bolts.
t  Additional lubricants such as engine or gear oil may be used, but do not use lubricants containing graphite.
t  Do not use degreased parts.
t  Tolerance for tightening torques: ± 15 %.
