Removing
Vehicles with 4-cylinder engine:
‒ Remove rear section of exhaust system from clamp(s):
=> 4-cylinder Engine (5-valve turbo), Mechanical Components; Repair group 26; Removing and installing parts of exhaust system
Vehicles with 6-cylinder engine:
‒ Unscrew lambda probes on right exhaust pipes with special tool 3337 and move clear to the side. ‒ Detach heat shield above right drive
shafts.
‒ → Unbolt front exhaust pipes with
catalytic converters from left and
right exhaust manifolds (3 nuts on
each side) -arrows-:

gearbox and place onto heat shield -2-. ‒ Secure propshaft with wire -arrow- at bracket -3- of fuel lines.
‒ Place drip tray underneath.
‒ Drain gear oil. ‒ → Unbolt cover -A- with Torsen
differential from gearbox cover -B-.
Note:
Shown in illustration with gearbox removed. ‒ Detach spring -C- from drive pinion.
Installing
Installation is carried out in the reverse
order; note the following:
‒ Remove old sealing paste and clean
the sealing surfaces thoroughly.
‒ Apply sealing paste AMV 188 001 02 to sealing surfaces. ‒ → Check that compression spring -
C- is fitted and that dowel sleeves -
arrows- are fitted in gearbox cover -
B- or in cover -A-.
‒ Fit cover -A- and tighten.
‒ Attaching propshaft => Page 39-84.
‒ Top up oil in gearbox and check oil
level in gearbox => Page 34-56.
