REFITTING
The alignment of the sub-frame with the body
will be made easier by positioning two threaded
rods Mot. 1233-01 in the two front mountings of
the sub-frame on the body.
Tighten the sub-frame mounting bolts to a torque
of:
- 6.2 daN.m at the front,
-10.5 daN.m at the rear.
Refitting is the reverse of removal.
Fit the heat shields correctly.
Apply
Loctite FRENBLOC to the caliper mounting
bolts and tighten them to the recommended tor-
que.
Press the brake pedal several times to bring the
pistons into contact with the brake pads.
Fill:
- the engine and gearbox with oil, if necessary,
- the cooling circuit and bleed it (see section 19
"Filling - bleeding"). E7J engine
Fix tool Mot. 1040-01 underneath the sub-frame.
98755R1
Lower the lift until the tool touches the ground.
Remove the sub-frame mounting bolts and take
out the engine and transmission assembly by lif-
ting the body.
NOTE : for any operation requiring separation of
the engine, gearbox and sub-frame assembly,
take care to mark the position of Mot. 1159 on the
sub-frame.
