TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION


caution
  • The fasteners marked with *1 should be temporarily tightened first and then fully tightened with the engine weight applied on the vehicle body.
  • The bolts marked with *2 are coated with the friction coefficient stabilizer. After removing these bolts, make sure that they are free of damage, remove any dust and dirt on the bearing surfaces and the threads, and then securely tighten to the specified torque.

REMOVAL SERVICE POINTS

<<A>> TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY UPPER PART COUPLING BOLT REMOVAL
Only loosen the bolts from the engine and transmission assembly (do not remove).

<<B>> TORQUE CONVERTER AND DRIVE PLATE COUPLING BOLT REMOVAL
1.Remove the coupling bolts while turning the crankshaft.
2.Fully push the torque converter into the transmission side so that it does not remain on the engine side.

<<C>> ENGINE ASSEMBLY HOLDING


1.
caution The engine hanger plate (special tool: MB992208)should be secured by tightening bolts with the engine hanger plate to the specified torque (If the other bolts are used, the engine assembly may fall down when it is raised.)

Tightening torque: 22 ± 4 N·m
Remove the air intake plenum stay, rear on the right bank and the engine hanger on the left bank, and then install the engine hanger plate (Special tool: MB992208) to the place.


2.When engine hanger (Special tool: MB991928) is used
(1) Assemble the engine hanger (Special tool: MB991928). (Set the components below to the base hanger.)

  • Slide bracket (HI)
  • Foot x 2 (standard) (MB991932)
  • Foot x 2 (short) (MB991933)
  • Joint x 2 (90) (MB991930)
(2) Set the feet of the special tool as shown in the figure.
note Adjust the engine hanger balance by sliding the slide bracket (HI).
(3) Set the chains of the engine hanger (Special tool: MB991527) and the engine hanger balancer (Special tool: MB991454) to support the engine and transmission assembly. Remove the garage jack and then remove the transmission assembly upper part coupling bolts that have been loosened previously.



3. When using engine mechanical hanger (Special tool: MZ203830 or MZ203831)
(1) Set the foot of the engine mechanical hanger (Special tool: MZ203830 or MZ203831) as shown in the figure.
note Slide the front foot of the engine mechanical hanger (Special tool: MZ203830 or MZ203831) to balance the engine hanger.
caution Place rag between the engine mechanical hanger (Special tool: MZ203830 or MZ203831) and the windshield to prevent the special tool from interfering with the windshield.
(2) Set the chains of the engine hanger (Special tool: MB991527) and the engine hanger balancer (Special tool: MB991454) to support the engine and transmission assembly. Remove the garage jack and then remove the transmission assembly upper part coupling bolts that have been loosened previously.

INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
