Drive Plate

Drive Plate

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Depth Gauge

When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to clearance issues:

• Route lines of all types (for example, fuel, hydraulic, Evaporative Emission (EVAP), coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum) and electrical wiring so that the original path is followed.

• To prevent damage to the lines, make sure there is sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.






Removing

- Remove the transmission.

- Lock the crankshaft and remove the drive plate.

Installing

- Install the drive plate only using the washer with recesses - 1 - (without the shim - 2 -).






- Install the new bolts - 3 - and tighten them to 30 Nm.

- Check the dimension - a - at three points and calculate the mean value.






Specified value: 18.8 to 20.4 mm

• Measure through the drive plate hole to the surface of the control housing cover.

If the specification is not obtained:

- Remove the drive plate and install the shim - 2 -. Reinstall and tighten the bolts - 3 - to 30 Nm again and repeat the measurement.






If the specification is OK:

- Tighten the bolts to 60 Nm + 90° (1/4) additional turn, (the additional turn may occur in several stages).

The rest of the installation follows the reverse of the removal procedures. When doing this note the following:

• Remove the locking pin (T40069) from the cylinder block and install the plug (30 Nm).
