NOTE: Starting with transmission end No.243 517 clearance "A" is set by means of circlip (11) which is available in three sizes (2.0 - 2.5 - 3.0
mm thick). The groove for the circlip is therefore machined 3.2 mm wide. Additional compensation by means of center outer plates - similar to
transmissions with lower transmission end No. - is required only when ever the specified clearance "A" is not attained by means of circlip (11). Set
release clearance to 0.7 - 1.2 mm.
