General Repair Information

To carry out gearbox repairs successfully and correctly,


scrupulous care and cleanliness, as well as the proper
tools, are essential requirements. Obviously, the generally valid basic safety rules apply to repair work.
Below is a summary of the general instructions to be applied to individual repair operations (also given elsewhere
at various parts of the workshop manual). They apply to
this workshop manual.
Contact corrosion!
The gearbox housing is made out of magnesium.
Bolts and other attachments that come into direct con-

tact with the gearbox can have varying finishes depending on whether the gearbox housing is of
magnesium.
The use of substitute components causes contact cor-

rosion (screws, nuts, washers ). This will result in


damage to the gearbox housing.
If you have any doubts about re-using parts, always

use new parts in accordance with Spare Parts catalogue.

Gearbox
When installing, ensure the dowel sleeves are correct-

ly located between the engine and gearbox.


If replacing the gearbox, pour in gear oil up to lower

edge of filler hole.


Capacity and specification Chap. 00-1.

Gaskets, seals
Clean contact surfaces thoroughly and apply sealant

-AMV 188 200 03-.


Apply sealant evenly, and not too thickly.
Replace O-rings.
Replace radial shaft seals.

Before installing:
Lightly oil the outer diameter and pack half the space between the sealing lips -arrow- with sealing grease
-G 052 128 A1-.
After installing:
Check gear oil level, if necessary pour in up to lower edge
of filler hole, specification Chap. 34-8.

General Repair Information

FABIA 2003 Gearbox 0A8

Replace circlips.
Do not over-tension the circlips.
Circlips must be positioned in the base of the groove.
Replace roll pins. Fitting position: slot longitudinally to

power flow -arrow-.


Bolts, nuts
Slacken and tighten nuts and bolts for attaching cov-

ers and housings diagonally across.


Do not twist particularly sensitive parts - e.g. clutch

pressure plates - and slacken and tighten diagonally


across in stages.
Tightening torques apply for non-oiled nuts and bolts.
Always replace the self-locking nuts and bolts.
It is important to ensure at all bolted connections that

the contact surfaces as well as the nuts and bolts are


waxed only after being installed, should this be necessary.
Bearings
New taper roller bearings are fitted as supplied and do

not require any additional lubrication.


Fit needle bearings to the gearbox with some gearbox

fluid.
Replace all taper roller bearings belonging to one

shaft at the same time. As far as possible use bearings of the same make!
Heat inner races to about 100 C for installing.
Do not exchange the outer and inner rings of bearings

of the same size - bearings go in pairs.


Position needle bearing with the lettered side (thicker

end) towards the drift pin.


Shims
Gauge shims at several points with a micrometer. Dif-

ferent tolerances allow to measure the required thickness for each washer very precisely.
Inspect for burrs and damage.
Install only shims which are in perfect condition.

Synchronizer rings
These are not interchangeable. If re-using, allocate

synchronizer rings to the same gear.


Inspect for wear, and replace if necessary.
Insert with some gearbox fluid.

Gears
Clean and heat on a heating plate to about 100 C be-

fore pressing on.


Temperature can be checked with a temperature

measuring instrument.

Remove pressure plate and clutch disc.


Installing
Installation is performed in the reverse order. Pay attention to the following points:
Note
Replace the clutch discs and pressure plates if the riv-

eting is damaged or loose.

S30-0116

Always replace clutch disc and pressure plate togeth-

er.
Assign clutch disc and pressure plate via engine iden-

tification characters Spare Part Catalogue.

In order to reduce unpleasant odours if the clutch is

burnt, thoroughly clean the clutch bell as well as the


flywheel and the engine on the side of the gearbox.
Clean the drive shaft serration and hub serration on a

used clutch disc, remove corrosion and only apply a


very thin layer of grease for plug serration of clutch
disc -G 000 100- onto the serration. Subsequently
move the clutch disc up and down on the drive shaft
until the hub fits smoothly on the shaft. Remove all excess grease.
The pressure plates are protected against corrosion

and are greased. Only clean the thrust surface as otherwise the life of the clutch may be considerably shortened.
The thrust surface of the pressure plate and the clutch

disc lining must fully rest against the flywheel. Only


then may the fixing screws be inserted.
Pay attention to the fitting position of the clutch disc.
