Removing
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.
Danger of causing damage to the coupling element.
• Do not bend the coupling element more than 10°.
• Do not stretch the coupling element.
• Do not damage the wire mesh on the coupling element.
- Remove the noise insulation.
- Remove the exhaust system suspended mount bolts - arrows - from the subframe.
- Remove the pendulum support bolt - 1 -.
- Then, remove the bolts - 2 and 3 - and the pendulum support.
- Remove the air filter with engine cover. Refer to => [ Air Filter and Engine Cover ] Air Filter and Engine Cover.
- Remove the intake hose - 4 - between the throttle valve control module (J338) and air filter. To do so, disconnect the hose - 1 -, if present, and the hose - 2 - (compress the securing ring) and remove the spring clamp - 3 -.
Vehicles with a Automatic Transmission:
- Unclip the transmission control module (J217) - 3 - from the bracket - 7 - and remove it.
- Disconnect the connector - 2 - from the transmission control module.
- Remove the bolts - 1 and 6 -.
- Move the bracket - 7 - with the power steering fluid reservoir to the side. Be careful of the electrical wires - 4 and 5 -.
The hoses remain connected to the power steering fluid reservoir.
Continuation for all Vehicles:
- Remove the battery, the battery tray bolts - arrows - and tray.
- Remove the plenum chamber cover.
- Remove the lines - 1 - from the transport strap - 3 -.
- Remove the transport strap - 3 - from the engine - 2 - and pull it out of the lifting eye - arrow -.
- Install the shackle (10-222 A/12) to this lifting eye.
- Remove the lock carrier trim.
- Remove the bolts - arrows - from the left and right side lock carrier brackets.
- Remove the lower mount from the adapter (10-222 A/28) and replace it with the adapter (10-222 A/28-1).
- Remove the bolts - arrows - from the adapter (10-222 A/28-1).
- Use the bolts from the adapter (10-222 A/28-1) to secure the adapter (10-222 A/28). Do not use the bolts for the lock carrier bracket.
- Bolt - arrows - tightening specification: 8 Nm.
A second technician is needed to install the engine support bridge (10-222 A) to the vehicle in order to prevent the engine support bridge from tipping.
Install the engine support bridge to the engine/transmission subassembly as follows:
1. Adapter (10-222 A/31-2)
2. Moveable joint (T40091/3)
3. Adapter (10-222 A/31-1)
4. Moveable joint (T40093/4)
5. Square pipe (T40091/1)
6. Adapter (10-222 A/28) with adapter (10-222 A/28-1)
7. Bracket with spindle and hook (10-222 A/10)
- Slide the moveable joint (- 2 -) onto the square pipe of the engine support bridge (10-222 A).
• The moveable joint (T40091/3) (- 2 -) bolts on the engine support bridge (10-222 A) face the direction of travel.
- Install the engine support bridge (10-222 A) to the strut towers and have a second technician hold it to prevent it from falling over.
- Slide the left and right square pipes (T40091/1) (- 5 -), forward through the adapters (10-222 A/28) (- 6 -) and position the moveable joints (T40093/4) (- 4 -) on both sides.
- Install the bracket with spindle hook (10-222 A/10) (- 7 -) to the right square pipe (T40091/1).
- Slide the rail with holes (T40091/2) (- 9 -) with the mount (T40093/5) (- 10 -) into the moveable joint (T40093/4) (- 4 -).
1. Adapter (10-222 A/31-2)
2. Moveable joint (T40091/3)
3. Adapter (10-222 A/31-1)
4. Moveable joint (T40093/4)
5. Square pipe (T40091/1)
6. Adapter (10-222 A/28) with adapter (10-222 A/28-1)
7. Bracket with spindle and hook (10-222 A/10)
8. Adapter (10-222 A/7)
9. Rail with holes (T40091/2)
10. Mount (T40093/5)
11. Spindle (10-222 A/11)
12. Shackle (10-222 A/12)
- Insert the locking pin into the rail with holes (T40091/2) (- 9 -) and secure it.
- Tighten all threaded connections on the engine support bridge hand tight. Adjust the height of the engine support bridge parallel over the adapters (10-222 A/28).
- Lengthen the right bracket with spindle and hook (10-222 A/10) (- 7 -) using the adapter (10-222 A/7) (- 8 -).
The hook on the adapter (10-222 A/7) faces downward and will be attached to the cylinder block later.
- Attach the left spindle (10-222 A/11) (- 11 -) to the shackle (10-222 A/12) (- 12 -).
- Position the spindles and hold the engine and transmission. Do not lift.
- Remove the bolt - 2 - and place the windshield washer reservoir - 1 - toward the front.
- Remove the bolts - 6 - and disconnect connector - 3 -.
- Remove the bolts - 5 - and place the coolant expansion tank on top of the engine with the hoses connected.
