AUDI A4 2000 B5 / 1.G APB Engine Valve Gear Service Workshop Manual

15-1


Valve gear, servicing

Notes:

Cylinder heads which have cracks between the
valve seats or between valve seat inserts and
the spark plug thread can be used further
without reducing service life, provided the
cracks do not exceed a maximum of 0.3 mm in
width, or when no more than the first 4 turns of
the spark plug threads are cracked.
After installing new lifters the engine must not
be started for about 30 minutes (otherwise
valves will strike pistons). Turn crankshaft two
complete revolutions before starting.
Carefully apply a small amount of sealant D 454
300 A2 at the four end points of the sealing
surfaces on the cylinder head, using a small
screwdriver Fig. 1

Carefully apply a small quantity of sealant D 454 300 A2 at the four end
points of the sealing surfaces on the cylinder head -arrows-, using a small
screwdriver. Fig. 1 Sealing end points of joints between bearing caps and
cylinder head

When connections are incorrectly allocated, bore holes in the oil line are
exposed (arrows).
To mount correctly, turn the oil line 180 and slide connections over bore
holes. Fig. 2 Installation position of the oil line for the inlet camshaft

When connections are incorrectly allocated, bore holes in the oil line are
exposed (arrows).
To mount correctly, turn the oil line 180 and slide connections over bore
holes.
CAUTION!
If the oil lines are mounted incorrectly, lubrication of the camshaft
bearing is no longer possible and the cylinder head must be
replaced. Fig. 3 Installation position of the oil line for the outlet camshaft

If the oil seal on one side is leaking it is advisable
to replace the seals on both sides.

- Remove ribbed belt Page 13
-1 .

- Remove toothed belt Page 13
-4 .

- Remove rear toothed belt guard.

- Pull out oil seal with oil seal extractor 3240.
- Clean contact surface and sealing surface.
