^
Coat cover sealing surface with D 454 300 A2
^
Apply unbroken sealant bead with 2 to 3 mm diameter in area of inner holes - arrow - to clean cover surface.
^
Align new cover with bolts - arrows - to bolt holes.
It must be aligned exactly because it cannot be aligned after driving on.

Wipe away any sealant leaking out.
Tightening hose clamp on outer joint
^
Attach CV joint boot clamp tool V.A.G. 1682 as shown in illustration. Be sure that edges of clamping pliers are seated in corners - arrows B - of
hose clamp.
^
Tension clamp by turning spindle with a torque wrench (do not tilt clamp tool).
Note:
^
A stainless steel clamp must be used due to hardness of CV boot material (compared to rubber). This clamp can only be tensioned using CV joint
boot clamp tool V.A.G. 1682.
^
Torque specification: 25 Nm.
^
Use torque wrench - C - with adjustment range 5 to 50 Nm (e.g. torque wrench V.A.G. 1331 ).
^
Be sure thread of spindle - A - of clamp tool moves freely. Grease with MOS 2 grease if necessary.
^
If it does not move freely, e.g. due to dirt in thread, the required clamp tension will not be achieved at the specified torque.
