Caution Due to the enclosed spaces, observe the following during all assembly work, particularly in the engine compartment: |
t
| Route lines of any kind and cables so that original routing can be restored. |
t
| Ensure that there is sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components. |
|
Note t
| When the engine is hot the cooling system is under pressure. If necessary, relieve pressure before commencing repair work. |
t
| Hoses are secured with spring-type clips. In case of repair, only use spring-type clips. |
t
| To fit the spring clips, use the spring clip pliers -VAS 5024A-. |
t
| Coolant hoses should be free from tension when installing, so that they do not come into contact with other components (observe markings on coolant connection and hose). |
Test for leaks in cooling system using cooling system tester -V.A.G 1274- and adapters for cooling system tester -V.A.G 1274/8- and -V.A.G 1274/9-. |
