and then loosen.   

 

„

When installing transmission, make sure alignment 
sleeves are correctly seated between engine and 
transmission.   

 

„

Place removed parts on a clean surface. Cover parts 
to prevent soiling. Use sheeting or paper. Use lint-
free cloths only!   

 

„

Carefully cover or plug unpacked components if 
repairs cannot be performed immediately.   

 

„

Only install clean parts: Remove packing from 
replacement parts immediately prior to installation 
and not before.   

 

„

Do not run engine or tow vehicle with oil pan 
removed or when there is no ATF in the 
transmission.   

 

„

If the transmission is removed from the vehicle, 
secure the torque converter to prevent it from falling 
out.

„

Before installing a seal, lightly coat outer 
circumference and sealing lip with ATF, depending 
on the component location.   

 

„

Only use ATF for automatic transmission 
components. Other types of lubrication cause 
malfunctions to occur in the transmission hydraulics.

Check ATF level after installing 

 

37-4, ATF level, 

checking and topping off

Oil

 

Caution!   

Be cautious when dealing with oil. Dispose of drained 
oil properly. Consider this: One drop of oil can 
contaminate 1000 liters of drinking water.

Do not mix any additives with the oil, and do not add other 
oils.

Drained oil must not be used to fill again.

The oil is obtainable as a replacement part. The part 
number can be found in
