Skoda Workshop Service and Repair Manuals

Installing the engine Special tools and workshop equipment required t  Grease -G 000 100- for manual gearbox t  High temperature grease -G 052 133 A2- for automatic gearbox l  Fit engine and gearbox using engine mount to the engine/gearbox jack. Installation is performed in the reverse order, pay attention to the following points:   Note t  Observe all safety measures and notes for assembly work on the fuel system, the injection system and on the charge air system as well as the rules for cleanliness → Chapter. t  When undertaking assembly replace self-locking nuts and screws which have been tightened to a torquing angle. t  Always replace gasket rings and seals. t  All cable straps should be fastened again in the same place when installing. t  Secure all hose connections with corresponding hose clamps → Electronic Catalogue of Original Parts.   Caution When undertaking all installation work, particularly in the engine compartment due to its cramped construction, please observe the following: t  Lay lines of all kinds (e.g. for fuel, hydraulic fluid, cooling fluid and refrigerant, brake fluid, vacuum) and electrical lines in such a way that the original line guide is re-established. t  In order to avoid damage to the cables, ensure that there is adequate free access to all moving or hot components. For vehicles with manual gearbox   Note t  Clean the drive shaft serration and hub serration on a used clutch disc, remove corrosion and only apply a very thin layer of grease -G 000 100- on the serration. Subsequently move the clutch disc up and down on the drive shaft until the hub fits smoothly on the shaft. Always remove excess grease. t  After installing the coupling, check the centering of the clutch disc → Gearbox; Rep. gr.30. t  Check the clutch release bearing for wear. Replace release bearing if worn → Gearbox; Rep. gr.30. For models with automatic gearbox   Note Check needle bearing for drive shaft pin in the crankshaft. Replace bearing if worn → Chapter.

Lubricate needle bearing and drive shaft pin with a thin layer of high temperature grease -G 052 133 A2-. Do not grease the serration of the drive shaft. Continued for all vehicles –  Check whether the dowel sleeves for centering the engine/gearbox are present in the cylinder block; insert if necessary.

–  Ensure that the intermediate plate has been inserted on the sealing flange and is pushed onto the dowel sleeves -arrows-. –  Screw on gearbox to engine → Gearbox; Rep. gr.34. –  Insert engine with gearbox into the body.
