Press in bearing for inner input shaft –  Drive in the bearing to the end. –  Install »new« retaining ring.

Installation position of oil guide in gearbox housing –  Oil guide is clipped into housing.

Pull out bearing races of output shafts All bearing races of output shafts 1 to 3 are removed »in the same way«. Here, for example, the removal of output shaft 1 is described. Bearing races of output shafts 2 and 3 are removed in the same manner. –  Make sure that bearing race does not »get stuck« on supports of puller.

Pressing in output shaft bearing race 1 –  Insert shim. –  Press in bearing race to stop.

Prepare bearing races of output shafts 2 and 3 for pressing in –  First insert 1 shim into housing. –  Then position »correct« bearing race and drive bearing race in using targeted, light taps until it can no longer drop out.

–  Fit spacer sleeve -T10428- and press tool - VW 402- onto press.

Pressing in bearing races of output shafts 2 and 3 This shows how bearings of output shaft 2 are pressed in. -A- Output shaft bearing race 2 -B- Output shaft bearing race 3 –  To press in bearing of output shaft 3, place housing on thrust piece -B-.

Driving out bearing race of differential Bearing is driven out using a suitable drift. –  Before driving out, place ring of thrust pieces for drive pinion bearing - VW 470- under bearing. –  To prevent gearbox housing from rocking, also insert wedge -T10357- under housing.

Pressing in bearing race of differential A second mechanic is required for driving in. –  Place thrust piece -T10380- on edge of workbench. Position gearbox housing with area of bearing point on thrust piece, and hold housing firmly like that. –  A second mechanic inserts the oil ring and the shim. 2. Mechanic drive bearing in as far as stop.
