Bolts And Nuts
Courtesy of VOLKSWAGEN GROUP OF AMERICA, INC.
- Loosen and tighten the bolts and nuts on the covers or housings in a diagonal sequence.
- The tightening specifications given, apply to un-oiled bolts and nuts.
- Use a wire brush to clean the threads of the bolts that were installed with locking fluid. Install the bolts with Locking Fluid:AMV 185 101 A1
.
- The threaded holes in which the self-locking bolts or bolts coated with locking fluid were installed must be cleaned (for example, with a thread tap). Otherwise there is the risk that the bolts could break off when they are removed again.
- Always replace self-locking bolts and nuts.
