Removing

–  Pull off engine cover panel -arrows-. –  Remove poly V-belt → Chapter.

–  Set up support bracket -10-222 A- with adapters -10-222/3- on wing mounting flanges. –  Take up weight of engine using support bracket spindle (do not raise).

–  Release quick-fasteners -1- and -2- and take off front noise insulation. –  If fitted, release quick fasteners -3- and remove rear noise insulation.

–  Unbolt bracket for soundproofing -arrows-. –  Drain the engine oil.

–  Remove oil return pipe from sump (unscrew bolts -arrows-).

–  Unscrew the bracket of the refrigerant line -Arrow- from the oil sump.

–  Unplug the connector -1- of the line to the magnetic clutch of the air conditioning compressor.   Caution The air conditioning refrigerant circuit must not be opened. –  Unbolt air conditioner compressor from bracket -arrows-.   Note To prevent damage to the refrigerant lines, ensure that the pipes and hoses are not stretched, kinked or bent. –  Tie up air conditioner compressor to vehicle, with lines attached.

–  Unscrew bolts -arrows- and detach torque reaction support.

–  If fitted, unclip actuator rod for vehicle level sender (front left) -G78- at bottom transverse link -arrow-.

–  Remove bolts -1- and -2- from anti-roll bar mounting.

–  Cut cable strap -arrows-, open bracket on starter cable and remove electrical line.

–  Check with plug gauge -3393- whether holes -1- and -2- coincide.   WARNING If this is not the case, wheel alignment must be performed after installing subframe. –  Support equipment carrier with engine and gearbox jack -V.A.G 1383 A-.

–  Unscrew nut -3- at bottom of engine mounting. –  Unscrew bolts -4- and -5- on console for engine mounting. –  Unscrew bolt -1- (front) for subframe and remove console for engine mounting -2-. –  Repeat procedure on other side of vehicle. –  Slowly lower equipment carrier with engine and gearbox jack -V.A.G 1383 A-.

–  Lift engine up slightly using spindle of support bracket -10-222 A,-; make sure the selector linkage and exhaust system do not become trapped.

–  Unscrew the attachment bolts -arrows- for the gearbox oil sump.

–  Remove M10 bolts -arrows-. –  Loosen the screws --1 ... 18- alternating and in diagonal sequence.   Note

Unscrew the two rear bolts on the oil pan -1- and -2- with -T10058-. For vehicles with manual gearboxes, the dual-mass flywheel -3- must be turned until the bolt is positioned opposite the recess -arrow-. –  Remove all bolts and take off sump; if necessary loosen it by striking lightly with a rubber hammer.

Installing Reassembly is carried out in the reverse order; note the following:   Note t  Renew gaskets and seals. t  Fit the cable clamps in the same position as they were. –  Remove sealant residue on cylinder block carefully.To do this remove baffle plate. –  Remove sealant residue from sump, e.g. with rotating plastic brush or similar.   WARNING Wear eye protection. –  Clean sealing surfaces; they must be free of oil and grease.

–  Cut off the tube nozzle on the front marking (diameter of the nozzle approximately. 2mm).

–  Apply bead of sealant onto clean sealing surface of sump as shown in illustration. l  Thickness of the sealant grub: 2 ... 3 mm.   Note t  The sealant bead must not be thicker than specified, otherwise excess sealant could enter the oil sump and clog the strainer in the pump. t  Take particular care when applying sealant bead in area of rear sealing flange -arrows-. t  The sump must be installed within 5 minutes after applying sealant.

–  Fit the sealing flange immediately and tighten bolts in the indicated sequence: 1.  Tighten the bolts -1 … 18- to 5 Nm crossways. 2.  Tighten sump/gearbox bolts: 45 Nm. 3.  Tighten bolts M10 -arrows- to 40 Nm. 4.  Tighten the bolts -1 … 18- diagonally to 15 Nm.   Note

t  When installing the sump -3- with the engine removed from the vehicle, make sure that it is positioned flush with the intermediate plate -1- at the flywheel end. In other words, the sump should protrude by 0.8 mm (distance -a-) from cylinder block -2-. t  After installing the oil sump, the sealant must dry for approx. 30 minutes. Only then should the engine be refilled with oil. –  removal and installing → Chassis, axes, steering; Rep. gr.40 –  removal and installing → Chassis, axes, steering; Rep. gr.40 –  Install the air conditioner compressor → Heating, air conditioning; Rep. gr.87. –  Install poly V-belt → Chapter. –  Fill with engine oil and then check the oil level. Installation is done in the reverse order. Tightening torques
