  2. Press new taper roller bearings onto the differential. Use sleeve 87 92 475 and support 87 92 210.
  3. Lubricate the bearings with automatic transmission fluid and fit the differential into the gear case without the crown wheel.
  4. Fit the torque converter shell. Fit only every other bolt.

    Tightening torque 25 Nm (18 lbf ft) 

    Measure the prestress on the differential with a dynamometer 87 92 483 TORQUE WRENCH  and drift 87 91 337 DRIVER, MEASURING DIFFERENTIAL BEARING TORQUE . Rotate until the value has stabilized. Start value:

  5. If the prestress is not within specified limits, remove the differential and bearing race from the gear case and change shim. If the reading exceeds the specified value, change to a thinner shim. If the reading is lower than the specified value, change to a thicker shim. Shims are available between 1.0- 1.90 mm in small intervals.
  6. Remove the torque converter shell and lift out the differential.
  7. Heat the crown wheel with a hot-air gun for about 5 minutes. Use protective gloves.

    IMPORTANT: Make sure the drive shaft bearing surfaces are in good condition.
  12. Clean the sealing surfaces on the gear case and torque converter shell. Use cleaner 30 02 599. Keep the surfaces free from grease.
  13. Fit a new seal in the gear case.
  14. Fit a new oil strainer in the gear case
  15. Apply a bead of flange sealant 93 21 795 approximately 1 mm wide to the gear case as illustrated and fit the torque converter shell. Apply thread locking compound 74 96 284 to the internal bolts. Fit the bolts (different lengths). Tighten the bolts.

    Tightening torque: 30 Nm (22 lbf ft)
