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. Install special tool engine hanger plate (MB991956) to the cylinder head.


2.<When special tool engine hanger (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 special tool engine hanger (MB991527) and special tool engine hanger balancer (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 special tool engine mechanical hanger (MZ203830 or MZ203831)>
(1) Set the foot of special tool engine mechanical hanger (MZ203830 or MZ203831) as shown in the figure.
note Slide the front foot of special tool engine mechanical hanger (MZ203830 or MZ203831) to balance the engine hanger.
caution Place rag between special tool engine mechanical hanger (MZ203830 or MZ203831) and the windshield to prevent the special tool from interfering with the windshield.
(2) Set the chains of special tool engine hanger (MB991527) and special tool engine hanger balancer (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
