F17 Transmission |
Complaint: |
It might be possible that - even if the
transmission is correctly adjusted- a stiff and/or inexact shift
mechanism occurs especially at cold conditions. As the transmission
oil becomes warmer the shifting behavior improves. This is
definitely not a transmission damage, the durability of the
transmission is not affected. |
Cause: |
Problem might be caused by: - Sliding gears
are out of tolerance. - Feathering at the synchronizers. - Oil
stiffness. |
Production: |
Modified sliding gears have been implemented
in production since June 2002 with transmission number
A10721F17. |
Remedy:
In case of customer complaint install a modified sliding gear
for gear for 1st and 2nd gear. The mentioned part is available
through P&A under the following Partnumber: 13123502 /
Catalognumber: 90 07 140. For further parts please refer to EPC (if
required).
Note:
Up to transmission number A09091F17 ---->
the following parts must be
replaced together:
- Main shaft, 1st and 2nd transmission gear, synchronizer,
modified sliding gear.
As of transmission number A09191F17 until A32921F17 ---->
the following parts must be
replaced together:
- Modified sliding gear and synchronizer (only if required).
It is not necessary to replace the transmission end plate or the
transmission assy.
