Drive pinion, adjusting


Notes:

Before adjusting drive pinion, adjust ring gear
(determine total shim thickness "S" total" for
adjustment shims "S1" + "S2") page 39
-186
.

Drive pinion only has to be adjusted again if
gear set, tapered roller bearings for drive pinion
or final drive housing was replaced. Adjustment
overview page 39
-170
.

Do not grease new tapered roller bearings
additionally for friction torque measurement.
The bearings are already greased with a
special oil from the factory.

Determining Shim "S3"
(adjust preload of tapered roller bearing for drive
pinion)

- Clamp final drive into engine and transmission
assembly stand page 39

.

Note: - Pull large tapered roller bearing outer race into housing.

- Pulling small tapered roller bearing outer race into housing.
- The outer race must be oiled and installed using VW408A punch and
30-205 thrust pad.

WARNING!
Wear protective gloves!
Notes: - Install drive pinion without spacer sleeve.
-
Heat up small tapered roller bearing inner race to approx. 100 C and
position on drive pinion.
Do not grease new tapered roller bearings additionally for friction
torque measurement. The bearings are already greased with a special
oil from the factory. Only install spacer sleeve if friction torque has been adjusted (Shim
S3 already determined).

onward.

- Insert small tapered roller bearing inner race and
tighten nut for drive pinion until specified friction
torque is attained Fig. 11

.

Notes:

Do not grease new tapered roller bearings
additionally for friction torque measurement.
The bearings are already greased with a
special oil from the factory.
Increase torque slowly and measure friction
torque multiple times. If the specified friction
torque is surpassed, replace spacer sleeve and
repeat adjustment! Any spacer sleeve that has
been pressed together too far one time must be
replaced.

- Adjust friction torque to following values:
New bearings
Run-in bearings
1)
200 to 250 Ncm 30 to 60 Ncm

Notes:

Tapered roller bearings for differential are low-
friction bearings. Therefore friction torque can
only be used for check measurement in a
limited way. A correct adjustment is only
possible by determining the total thickness
"Sges".
