Continuation for All
CAUTION!
Ensure that the fender edges are not damaged.
- Remove the noise insulation.
- Remove the front part of the right wheel housing liner.
- Set the camshaft gear to the mark for Top Dead Center (TDC) by turning the crankshaft. The mark on the camshaft gear must align with the arrow on the toothed belt guard.
- Remove the vibration damper bolt.
- Remove the lower toothed belt guard bolts - arrows -.
- Remove the lower engine mount bracket bolt - 3 -.
- Loosen the bolts for the right wheel housing liner and push it aside.
- Remove the engine mount bracket bolt - 1 - through the hole in the wheel housing.
• The next steps are necessary in order to be able to lift the engine far enough.
- Remove the exhaust pipe with catalytic converter to turbocharger nuts - arrows -.
- Remove the exhaust pipe with catalytic converter from the turbocharger.
- Remove the pendulum support bolts - 2 and 3 -.
- Remove the drive axles from the transmission.
- Remove the Air Conditioning (A/C) pipe clamp - arrows - bolts from the body.
• The A/C system does not need to be opened!
- Remove the engine mount to engine mount bracket bolts - arrows - and remove the engine mount.
CAUTION!
Make sure that no components/hoses are damaged, overstretched or torn when lifting the engine using (10-222A).
- Lift the engine using (10-222A) far enough until the upper bolt - 2 - for the engine mount bracket can be loosened and removed.
- Continue to raise the engine until the engine mount bracket can be removed upward.
- Remove the remaining toothed belt guard bolts - arrows - and remove the toothed belt guard.
- If reinstalling the toothed belt, mark the rotational direction of the toothed belt.
- Loosen the semi automatic tensioning roller nut and remove the toothed belt.
- Then, turn the crankshaft back slightly.
Installing
• When turning the camshaft, the crankshaft must not be at TDC. Valves and/or pistons may be damaged.
• The engine must be no more than warm to touch.
• Tightening specifications, refer to => [ Toothed Belt Overview, Without Divided Toothed Belt Guard ] Engine Overview.
- Place the toothed belt onto the crankshaft sprocket (observe direction of rotation).
- Install the lower toothed belt guard with the two lower bolts.
- Install the vibration damper with new bolts. Tightening specification: 20 Nm + 90° (1/4) additional turn.
- Set the crankshaft and camshaft to TDC for cylinder 1 - arrows -.
- Route the toothed belt in the following sequence: semi automatic tensioning roller, camshaft gear, coolant pump, and finally around the idler roller - arrow -.
• Be sure the semi automatic tensioning roller is properly seated in the cylinder head.
- Tension the toothed belt. To do so, install the wrench on the eccentric and turn it clockwise in the - direction of the arrow - until the notch is above the tab (toothed belt excessively tensioned).
- Release the tension on the toothed belt again.
- Tension the toothed belt until the notch and tab align.
- Tighten the semi automatic tensioning roller nut to 25 Nm.
- Rotate the crankshaft two additional turns in engine rotation direction until the engine is at TDC again. For this, it is necessary that the last 45° (1/8) rotation is turned without interruption.
- Check the tension of the toothed belt again. Target value: the tab and notch are positioned across from each other.
- Check the valve timing again.
If the marks do not match:
- Repeat the valve timing adjustment.
If the marks match:
- Install the toothed belt guard bolts - arrows -.
- Install the engine mount bracket to the cylinder block from above and tighten the bolts hand tight.
• Note the different length of the bolts. Bolt - 3 - is approximately 25 mm shorter than bolts - 1 and 2 -.
• Bolt - 1 - can be installed through the hole in the wheel housing and tightened.
- Lower the engine using (10-222A) until the lower bolt - 3 - can be tightened.
- Tighten all bolts to 45 Nm.
- Install the engine mount. Tightening specifications, refer to => [ Fastener Tightening Specifications ] Engine Assembly - Fastener Tightening Specifications.
- Tighten the engine mount to engine mount bracket bolts - arrows - hand tight, by bringing the contact surfaces into contact using (10 - 222 A).
- Align the engine mount as follows:
• There must be a distance of at least 10 mm - a - present between the engine mount bracket - 2 - and right longitudinal member.
• The casting edge on the engine mount bracket - 2 - must be parallel with the engine mount - 1 -.
- Tighten the bolts for the engine mount and engine mount bracket. Tightening specifications, refer to => [ Fastener Tightening Specifications ] Engine Assembly - Fastener Tightening Specifications.
- Remove the (10 - 222 A).
- Remove the (T10339) and install the belt tensioner.
- Install the ribbed belt. Refer to => [ Ribbed Belt ] Ribbed Belt.
- Reconnect the fuel and ventilation lines. Make sure the connector couplings are securely fastened.
- Install the coolant expansion tank and check the coolant level.
- Install the noise insulation.
- Restore the power supply.
- Install the engine cover/upper air filter housing.
