Clutch (Manufactured By LuK), Removing and Installing
Self-adjusting clutch (Manufactured by LuK), removing and installing
Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
- Flywheel retainer 3067
- Centering mandrel 3190 A
- Centering pin T10097 for clutch plate with larger hub diameter
- Grease for clutch plate splines G 000 100
Removing
- Remove transmission.
- Insert flywheel retainer 3067 to loosen bolts.
Unscrew pressure plate as follows to avoid distortion of pressure plate (will cause bucking when vehicles moves off):
- Remove all 6 bolts in sequence in a clockwise direction in steps of 90° (1/4 turn) until pressure plate is free.
- Remove pressure plate and clutch plate.
Installing
Installation is performed in reverse order of removal. Note the following:
Note:
- Replace clutch plates and pressure plates with damaged or loose rivets.
- Pressure plate and clutch plate must only be replaced together.
- Allocate pressure plate and clutch plate via engine code Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).
- If the clutch has burnt out, thoroughly clean the bellhousing, flywheel and parts of the engine facing the transmission in order to reduce the smell of burnt linings.
- Clean input shaft splines and (in case of used clutch plates) clean hub splines, remove corrosion and apply only a very thin coating of lubricant G 000 100 on splines. Then move clutch plate on input shaft back and forth until hub on shaft moves easily. Always remove excessively applied grease.
- Pressure plates are protected against corrosion and greased. Only the contact surface may be cleaned, otherwise service life of clutch is significantly reduced.
- Contact surface of pressure plate and clutch plate lining must make complete contact on flywheel. Only then insert mounting bolts.
- Note installation position of clutch plate:
- Marking "Getriebeseite" faces transmission.
- Change over flywheel retainer 3067 when installing.
- For centering clutch plate use Centering Mandrel 3190 A and for clutch plate with larger hub diameter use Centering Pin T10097.
Install pressure plate as follows to avoid distortion of pressure plate (will cause bucking when vehicles moves off):
- Place pressure plate onto alignment pins.
- Screw in all 6 bolts uniformly by hand until bolt head makes contact on pressure plate.
- Tighten all 6 bolts in sequence in a clockwise direction in steps of 90° (1/4 turn) until housing makes contact on flywheel.
- Tighten all 6 bolts in sequence in a clockwise direction to final tightening torque.
- Install transmission.
