- Remove the cap/input shaft circlip - A -.






- Pierce the rubber piece into the center of the cover - C - using a screwdriver.






- Remove the cover from the transmission housing.

A Kukko support , for example, (22/1)
B Kukko internal puller 8 to 12 mm , for example, (21/01)

Remove the locking ring - C - from the grooved ball bearing on the input shaft/transmission housing as follows:






- Hold one end of the locking ring secure with the screwdrivers - A -.

- Pry the other end out of the groove in the grooved ball bearing in direction of - arrow - using the screwdriver - B -.

- Pry out the rest of the locking ring using the screwdriver - B -.

- Remove the bolts - A - that attach the transmission housing to the clutch housing.






- Install (VW 771/40) into the threaded hole in the transmission housing.






- Heat transmission housing using, for example, the (V.A.G 1416) , in area of bearing seat for grooved ball bearing/input shaft to approximately 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.

- Remove the transmission housing from the clutch housing in direction of - arrow - using slide hammer (VW 771/1).

Pry out carefully with a pry lever all around the housing braces alternation from side to side. Be careful not to damage the sealing surfaces.

- Remove the separating tool - A - and the (VW 455) or the (3160) from the input shaft.






A second technician is needed to help remove the shafts from the clutch housing.

- Lift the differential - 1 - with the left hand. With the right hand, lift the output shaft for 1st to 4th gear together with the shift rods - 2 - - arrow A -.






- At the same time, the 2nd technician lifts the input, reverse and output shaft for 5th/6th gear - 3 - together with the selector rods out of the clutch housing - arrow B -.

If necessary, differential can be shifted again in clutch housing after lifting shafts.

- Pry out the input shaft seal using the (VW 681).

Always replace the grooved ball bearing on the input shaft. Refer to - 6 - => [ (Item 6) Grooved Ball Bearing ]

Assembly

Press the new grooved ball bearing onto the input shaft - item 6 - => [ (Item 6) Grooved Ball Bearing ] .

Perform the following work:

- Install the input shaft - 1 -, output shaft 5th/6th gears - 2 - with the selector shaft - 3 -, reverse gear shift fork - 4 - and reverse shaft - 5 -.






Pay attention to the different bearing for the reverse gear shift fork.

The reverse gear selector fork - 1 - is mounted on the axle - 2 - behind the 5th and 6th gear selector shaft- 3 -.





Reverse gear selector fork - 1 - mounted on the selector shaft with the 5th and 6th gear selector fork - 2 -.





Continuation for All

- Install the differential - 1 -.






A 2nd technician is needed to help install the shafts into the clutch housing.

- Hold 1st through 4th gear output shaft - 3 - with the gearshift rods - 4 - in the right hand as illustrated.

- Lift the differential slightly with the left hand.

- Have the second technician lift the input shaft, the 5th/6th gear output shaft and reverse gear - 2 - together with the reverse shaft slightly at the same time.

- Install the 1st through 4th gear output shaft in direction of - arrow -.

Places of the input shaft, output shafts and final drive gear/differential must engage.

- Install the shafts and the differential in their bearing seats with the help of a second technician.

- Secure the (30 - 211 A) for the input shaft to the clutch housing.






The clutch housing is shown in the illustration rotated 180°.

- Install the bolt - A - just far enough until the input shaft starts to lift.

The grooved ball bearing/input shaft only fits in one position in the transmission housing.





There is a flattened area on the grooved ball bearing and the bearing mount.

If the flat sides - A and B - are present, do not insert any washers above and below the grooved ball bearing.

The flattened sides - A - on the grooved ball bearing and on the bearing mount - B - must align in the transmission housing.

- Mark the flat side in color.

- Transfer the markings to the upper area of the grooved ball bearing and to the upper area of the transmission housing bearing mount (see next figure).

- Heat transmission housing using (V.A.G 1416) in area of bearing seat for grooved ball bearing/input shaft to 100 °C (212 °F) for approximately 10 minutes.

It is necessary to heat the transmission housing so that the grooved ball bearing is not damaged when the housing is being installed.

Apply sealing paste (AMV 188 200 03) evenly onto the sealing surface of the clutch housing.

Align the marking on the grooved ball bearing - A - with the marking on the transmission housing - B - and mount the transmission housing.






- Install the transmission housing and tighten the new bolts - A -, - B and C - to the tightening specification.






Allocation of bolts:

A Bolt with permanent washer
B Bolt without washer
C Bolt with permanent washer

- Install the grooved ball bearing/input shaft locking ring - 1 -.






- Attach the (30 - 211 A) for the input shaft.

- If the retaining sleeve for the shift shaft was removed, then install it now all the way onto the tool, refer to => [ Lock Sleeve Differentiation ] Transmission Housing, Servicing.

- Turn the transmission so that the opening for the gearshift shaft faces up in the assembly stand.

- Install the gearshift shaft - 1 - into the lower bearing - 2 - and into the shift forks - 3 -.






The cover is not shown in the illustration.

- Push the shift shaft - 1 - against the retaining sleeve - 2 - in direction of - arrow - and guide it through the shift fork all the way down using the shift finger - 3 -.






The shift cover - 4 - must stand parallel to the bolting surface on the transmission housing.

It must be possible to move the shift shaft easily (forward and backward).

If the shift cover is at an angle to the bolting surface, then the shift shaft is not installed into the lower bearing.

- Tighten the bolts - 3 - for the shift cover - 4 -.






- Install the locking bolt - 2 -, lock elbow - arrow - must not be installed when doing so.

- Install the back-up lamp switch (F4) - 1 -.

- Install the input shaft seal so that it is flush.






- Install slave cylinder with release bearing. Refer to => [ Slave Cylinder with Release Bearing ] Slave Cylinder With Release Bearing.

- Move the shift lever (selector lever) through all the gears.

- Install the cap all the way into the transmission housing.






- Secure the cap with the locking ring - A -.






- Install the flange shafts with the springs, thrust washers and tapered rings.






Install the bevel box into the manual transmission as follows:

- Lubricate the splines on the differential with grease for clutch disc shaft splines (G 000 100) on the manual transmission.

- Slide on bevel box completely on manual transmission, while doing this, join splines of input shaft/bevel box centrally with differential.

- Line up the splines on the right flange shaft with the differential bevel gear. Turn the flange shaft if necessary.

- With proper tooth position and central guiding, bevel box slips up to stop against manual transmission.

Do not pull bevel box with mounting bolts against manual transmission, otherwise bevel box is canted and mounting eyelets can break off.

- Install the 4 bolts - arrows - (only 3 bolts are shown in the illustration) connecting the bevel box to the manual transmission.






- Tighten the right flange shaft conical head bolt with the (T10107).
