Always make sure that no dirt can enter an »open« gearbox. In particular, dirt entering an »exposed«mechatronic unit for dual clutch gearbox -J743- and/or oil pump can lead to gearbox failure.
t  If gearbox covers have been unbolted or gearbox has no fluid, do not run engine or tow vehicle.
t  First thoroughly clean connecting points and surrounding areas and then loosen bolts.
t  When installing the gearbox, ensure that dowel sleeves between the engine and gearbox are correctly located.
t  Place removed parts on a clean surface. Cover parts to prevent soiling. Use plastic sheeting and paper. Use lint-free cloths only!
t  Install only clean parts; do not remove Genuine parts from packaging until immediately before installing.
t  If repair work cannot be performed immediately, carefully cover or seal components.
