Removing engine pump aggregate:   Note Because of the different dimensions of the battery the screw cap of the hydraulic oil reservoir on certain vehicle versions is concealed by the battery tray and battery. If this is the case remove the air filter, the battery and the battery tray → Electrical System → Rep. gr.27. –  If necessary remove air filter → Engine, Fuel Injection → Rep. gr.24 (petrol engines) or → Engine, Fuel Injection → Rep. gr.23 (diesel engines).

–  Unscrew the screwed lid -1- for the hydraulic oil reservoir -2- of the engine pump aggregate. –  Extract the hydraulic oil with an extraction bottle via the filler neck. –  Raise vehicle. –  Remove noise insulation → Body Work → Rep. gr.50. –  Remove front left wheel. –  Remove the left wheelhouse liner → Body Work → Rep. gr.66.

Vehicles with radiator fan control unit -J293- –  Disconnect plugs -1- and -2- at the radiator fan control unit -J293--4-. –  Unscrew nuts -3-. –  Remove radiator fan control unit-4-. Continued for all vehicles

–  Open spacer holder -1- and remove pressure line (expansion hose) -3-, return line -2- and the line from the power-steering sensor -G250-. –  Position the catch pan under the engine pump aggregate.

–  Disconnect plugs -1-, -2- and -3- from the engine pump aggregate -4-. 1 -  Data BUS plug and terminal 15 2 -  Earth plug and terminal 30 3 -  Plug of power-steering sensor -G250-   Note t  Residual hydraulic oil remains in the engine pump aggregate. When removing the pressure line some of this residual amount will flow out. t  When tying up the hydraulic line make sure the bending radius of 100 mm is reached.

–  Unscrew the pressure line (expansion hose) -3- at the engine pump aggregate -4- and tie up. –  Close off the pressure line with a plastic bag and secure with adhesive tape. –  Open the spring strap clamp -1- on the return line (return hose) -2-. –  Carefully pull off the return line -2- from the reservoir support of the engine pump aggregate -4- and close off with a plastic bag and secure with adhesive tape.

–  Release screw -arrow-. 1 -  Front bracket

–  Release screws -arrows-. –  Remove engine pump aggregate -2- with brackets -1- and -3- downwards.

Remove bracket –  Unscrew bolts -5-. –  Remove bracket -1- and -3- from the engine pump aggregate -2-. The bearings -4- and -6- are not used as replacement part. In case of bearing damage the corresponding bracket must be replaced.   Caution The power steering control unit -J500- (-A-) and the electric motor -B- must not be separated.
