Shim thickness calculations

Type Output Shaft 1st - 4th gear Output Shaft 5th/6th/reverse gear Differential
Standard shims (mm) - - + 1.10
Measured end play (mm) + 1.56 + 1.51 + 0.36
Addition value (mm) to obtain correct bearing pre-load + 0.17 + 0.15 + 0.25
Required shim thickness (mm) = 1.73 = 1.66 = 1.71
Available shims (mm) 1.44 - 2.16 (in 0.02 mm steps) 1.44 - 2.16 (in 0.02 mm steps) 1.44 - 2.28 (in 0.02 mm steps)

Transmission Ratios

2.0L diesel engine Internal Gearbox Ratio(s) Final Drive Ratio(s) Overall Ratio(s)
First gear 3.077 4.071 12.527
Second gear 1.864 4.071 7.588
Third gear 1.241 4.071 5.054
Fourth gear 0.842 4.071 3.429
Fifth gear 0.886 2.850 2.524
Sixth gear 0.711 2.850 2.025
Reverse gear 1.360 *(2.850 x 3.077) = 8.769 11.926

* The reverse gear final drive ratio is determined by the multiplication of the internal gearbox ratio of the first gear by the final drive ratio of the 5th/6th/reverse gear output shaft.
