Technical information should always be available to the foremen and mechanics, because their
careful and constant adherence to the instructions is essential to ensure vehicle road-worthiness and
safety. In addition, the normal basic safety precautions for working on motor vehicles must, as a
matter of course, be observed.

4 General repair notes

4.1 Tools
Uncertainty often occurs with smaller bolts having low tightening
forces. Torque wrench 2...10 Nm -V.A.G 1783- can be used with
these bolts.

4.2 Gearbox
The gearbox has a hole in the housing.

– Cover the hole with a cloth before installation work.


Make sure that no dirt can enter an “open” gearbox.
♦ If gearbox covers have been unbolted or gearbox has no fluid,
do not run engine. Do not tow vehicle.
♦ First thoroughly clean connecting points and surrounding
areas and then loosen bolts.
♦ During installation, ensure that the dowel sleeves between the
engine and gearbox are correctly located.
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface. Cover parts to pre‐
vent soiling. Use plastic sheeting and paper. Use lint-free
cloths only!
♦ Install only clean parts; do not remove Genuine parts from
packaging until immediately before installing.
♦ If repair work cannot be performed immediately, cover opened
parts carefully.

Do not mix “additives” in oil.


Oil which has been drained out cannot be added again.

Caution

Use caution when handling oil. Dispose of used oil properly.


One drop of oil will contaminate 600 litres of water.

4.4 Working with vehicle diagnostic testers


• Only work with vehicle diagnostic testers from Volkswagen.

♦ Vehicle diagnosis, testing and information system -VAS

♦ Vehicle diagnostic tester -VAS 5053-
Various functions are available in the operating modes guided
functions and guided fault finding . The 3 most important
functions are:
♦ Adapting installation information
♦ Reading measured values for mandatory reporting
♦ Initiating basic adjustment

4.4.1 Adapting installation information


The mechatronic unit detects other control units in the vehicle by
means of signals on the data bus. Pressing the Adapt instal-
lation information lock button instructs the mechatronic unit
to forget all communication partners.

7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0AM - Edition 07.2010

30 – Clutch
1 Removing and installing the dual
clutch
Brief description
The clutch is installed “upwards” with the gearbox removed. The
mechatronic unit remains on the gearbox.
If one new clutch is installed, the positions of the engagement
bearings for “K 1” and “K 2” must be found and set. Then the clutch
is pressed onto the input shaft.
When installing a clutch, “most” mechanics push the clutch onto
the input shaft up to the stop. This is not the optimum position for
the clutch!
For this reason, pull the clutch slightly “upwards” against the re‐
taining ring after it has been installed.

Note

♦ It is possible that the retaining ring is seated very tightly. The


cause may be that the clutch is pressing so hard against the
retaining ring that the ring is stuck.
♦ If you cannot get the ring out of the groove, press the clutch
down slightly. Never strike the clutch or shaft with a hammer!

In the following procedure, you are first shown how to measure
all necessary dimensions “on gearbox”, in order to determine
what is the appropriate shim. Tolerances on gearbox and toler‐

First find a dimension “B”. This dimensions is required for both
clutches “K 1” and “K 2”.
Then find a dimension “A” for each clutch. The following 2 illus‐

Do not measure on ring joint. This could force ring away at that
point and falsify measuring result.

– Remove retaining ring again.


This ring is not allowed to be installed again!
– Calculate average of both measuring results.
Example:
Dimension “B” = B1+B22 = 2,91+3,02 = 2.96

7-speed dual clutch gearbox 0AM - Edition 07.2010

– To make sure this measurement is as accurate as possible,


position digital depth gauge twice at opposite sides.
This allows the value to be found even more accurately, because
the inaccuracy caused by “tilting” on the engagement bearing is
minimised.
– Calculate average of both measurements onto gauge block -
T10374- .
– Note down this value and call it “A1”.
Example:
Dimension “A1” = 2,61+2,812 = 2.71
Example: “A1” = 2.71 millimetres
Next calculation:
“A1” minus “B” plus height of gauge block -T10374- = Depth of
engagement bearing of clutch 1.
Height of gauge block -T10374- is always the same. It is: 51.81
mm.
Sample calculation:
2.71 mm minus 2.96 mm plus 51.81 mm = 51.56 mm.
You have now calculated value for how deep engagement bear‐
ing is actually seated inside gearbox.
Depth of bearing in each gearbox should be 50.08 millimetres.
Subtract nominal dimension “50.08 millimetres” from this actual
value. This gives result for actual gap of clutch 1.
– Continue the calculation:
Calculated value (in example: 51.56 mm) minus nominal dimen‐
sion = gap of clutch.

2.5 Checking selector lever cable


Brief description
Selector lever cable must be removed from gearbox so that its
freedom of movement can be checked. Put removed end down
so it does not rub against anything.
Then the selector lever must be moved and after that, the Bowden
cable must be reattached to the gearbox.
Then the selector lever cable must be adjusted ⇒ page 43 .
Do not grease connections of cable!
Checking
– Move selector lever to position “P” position.
– Remove cable from lever on gearbox.
– Move selector lever repeatedly from “P” to “S” and back to “P”.
• Selector lever must move easily.

2.9 Checking selector mechanism


Faults which can be detected electrically can be determined with
guided fault finding . In the case of mechanical faults, skill
is required to localise and repair a faulty system or defective
“part”.
It must not be possible to start the engine in the selector lever
positions “R”, “D” or “S”.
When selector lever is shifted to position “N” at speeds above 5
km/h, solenoid for selector lever lock must not engage and block
selector lever. Selector lever can be shifted into a driving range.
When travelling at speeds below 5 km/h (almost stationary) and
shifting into selector lever position “N”, solenoid for selector lever
lock should only engage after about 1 second. Selector lever can‐
not be shifted out of “N” position until brake pedal is depressed.

The next step is “difficult”:


Now press both engaging levers of dual clutch “away” from plung‐
ers of mechatronic unit. Otherwise, levers will jam mechatronic
unit at plungers and prevent mechatronic unit from being re‐
moved.
– Please read through this description all the way to the end first.
This will help you to perform the following steps “correctly”.
Both levers must now be carefully pressed away from the plung‐
ers.
– First take a look at -reddish-brown- engaging lever in this pic‐
ture.

disengage all gears and return selector forks to middle position
“neutral”.

“Neutral, neutral, neutral”, or gearbox will not function!

You can turn the front gear slightly for assistance. This makes it
