t  Fixing device -T10452- (larger diameter)
t  Engine/gearbox jack, e.g. -V.A.G 1383/A-
Fixing:
In order to fix the assembly carrier, the fixing devices must be successively screwed into the following positions:
Fixing devices -T10096- (smaller diameter) in positions -2-
   
Fixing devices -T10452- (larger diameter) in positions -3-
  Note
The fixing devices -T10096- and - T10452- must only be tightened to maximum 20 Nm as otherwise the threads of the fixing bolts can be damaged.
–  Successively screw out the fixing screws of the assembly carrier/body -2- and replace on both sides with the fixing devices -T10096- (smaller diameter) and tighten to 20 Nm.
–  Support assembly carrier with engine/gearbox jack, e.g. -V.A.G 1383/A-.
–  Successively screw out the fixing screws of the assembly carrier/body -3- and replace on both sides with the fixing devices -T10452- (larger diameter) and tighten to 20 Nm.
