Removed parts, overview


Notes:

There is a distinction made between two types
of transmission. Transmissions with hydraulic
control E17, the sensor for transmission RPM
(inductive sensor) is secured to bottom of valve
body. Transmissions with hydraulic control
E18/2, the sensor for transmission RPM (hall
effect sensor) is secured to transmission
housing behind valve body.
Information regarding which transmission is
installed can be found in tables Page 00

- Disconnect harness connector from Transmission Vehicle Speed
Sensor (VSS) -G38- (arrow).

Notes: - Loosen mounting bolts (arrows) of valve body and remove valve body
with wiring harness.
Only the marked mounting bolts (arrows) must be loosened.When loosening other bolts, the function of the valve body can be
