AUDI A4 1998 B5 / 1.G 01A Transmission Input Shaft Adjustment Workshop Manual

35-17


Input shaft, adjusting

Note:
The input shaft must be re-adjusted if the
transmission housing, input shaft or ball bearing
is replaced.

Special tools and equipment

30-100 press tube
3167 spacer gauge
Depth gauge

Calculating dimension -x- - Clamp input shaft in vice using protective jaws -A-.
- Place 3167 spacer gauge onto 3rd gear.
- Place transmission housing over input shaft onto spacer gauge.

- Place depth gauge onto transmission housing and measure to lower
circlip groove of input shaft.

Determining circlip thickness behind the input shaft ball bearing - Place depth gauge onto transmission housing and measure to seating
surface for ball bearing.
Measurement in the following example: -b- = 26.80 mm (1.055 in.)
Formula:
x = a - b
Example:

Dimension -a- 28.50 mm
- Dimension -b- 26.80 mm
= Dimension -x- (thickness of circlip) 1.70 mm
- Determine circlip according to table Page 35

Determining the circlip in front of input shaft
ball bearing

- Drive rear circlip (as calculated) and ball bearing
onto input shaft using 30-100 press tube.

Available circlips - Determine thickest circlip which can still just be installed.
- Determine circlip according to table. Part number parts catalogCirclip thickness (mm)
