INSPECTION AND REPAIR
Make the necessary adjustments, repairs, and part replacements if excessive wear or damage is discovered during
inspection.
PRESSURE PLATE ASSEMBLY
Visually inspect the pressure plate friction surface for
excessive wear and heat cracks.
If excessive wear or deep heat cracks are present, the
pressure plate must be replaced.
Pressure Plate Warpage
Use a straight edge and a feeler gauge to measure the
pressure plate friction surface flatness in four directions.
If any of the measured values exceed the specified limit, the
pressure plate must be replaced.
Pressure Plate Warpage mm(in)
Limit
0.3 (0.012)
Clutch Cover
Visually inspect the entire clutch cover for excessive wear,
cracking , and other damage.
The clutch cover must be replaced if any of these conditions
are present.
1. Abrasion, scratches, cracks and deflection of friction face to
the disc, loose rivet and wear of ring
Grind small scratches, or replace the assembly if extreme
scratches are found.

Diaphragm Spring Finger Height
1. Place a new driven plate or the appropriate spacer beneath
the pressure plate.
2. Fully compress the pressure plate and diaphragm spring.
There are two ways to do this.
Use a bench press to press down on the assembly from the
top.
Tighten the fixing bolts.
NOTE: Preload on diaphragm spring finger must be 49 - 98 N
(11 - 22 lb) in direction of release, when clutch cover assembly
is bolted to the flywheel.

3. Measure the spring height from base to spring tip "H". If the
measured value exceeds the specified limit, the pressure
plate assembly must be replaced.

Release Bearing (6VE1)
1. Visually check the release bearing for excessive play, noise
and breakage.
2. If any of these conditions are discovered, the release
bearing must be replaced.

3. When replacing the release bearing (3), replace both the
wedge collar (2) and wire ring (1) at the same time.
201RS013
Wedge Collar
1. Visually check the surfaces of the wedge collar making
contact with the release bearing for excessive wear and
damage.
2. Replace any exhibiting excessive wear or damage.

an oil stone.
3. Replace any exhibiting excessive wear or damage.
Release Bearing (4J, C24SE)
1. Visually inspect the surfaces of the release bearing making
contact with the shift fork for excessive wear and damage.
Replace any exhibiting excessive wear or damage.
2. Apply multi-purpose type grease (NLGI No.2 or No.3) to
contact surface between the release bearing and the shift
fork. (Do not apply grease to the sleeve inner face.)

DRIVEN PLATE ASSEMBLY
1. Visually inspect the torsion spring
1 for looseness,
breakage, and weakening.
If any of these conditions are discovered, the driven plate
assembly must be replaced.
2. Visually inspect the facing surfaces
2 for cracking and
excessive scorching.
Visually inspect the facing surfaces for the presence of oil
or grease.
If any of these conditions are discovered, the facing mus
t
be cleaned or replaced.

transmission top gear shaft spline.
Minor ridges on the top gear shaft spline may be removed
with an oil stone.
Driven Plate Warpage
