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.

6.1 General repair instructions

To ensure flawless and successful gearbox repairs, the greatest
care and cleanliness as well as the use of good and proper tools
are essential. Of course, the basic rules for safety also apply dur‐
ing repair work.
A number of general notes on the individual repair procedures,
which can otherwise be found in the relevant sections of the man‐
ual, are summarised here. They apply for this particular workshop
manual.
Special tool
List of special tools used in the workshop manual ⇒ Workshop
equipment and special tools or ⇒ Electronic Parts Catalogue
(ETKA) .
Gearbox
♦ When installing the manual gearbox, ensure that the dowel
sleeves between the engine and gearbox are correctly seated.
♦ When installing mounting brackets or waxed components,
clean the contact surfaces. Contact surfaces must be free of
wax and grease.
♦ Allocate bolts and other components using the ⇒ Electronic
parts catalogue (ETKA) .
♦ If the gearbox is repaired, fill with gear oil.
Gaskets and seals
After removing gaskets and seals, always inspect contact surfa‐
ces of housing and shaft for burrs resulting from removal or for
other signs of damage.
♦ Thoroughly clean joint surfaces and apply sealant .
♦ Allocation ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA)
♦ Before installing radial oil seals, half-fill space between sealing
lips with sealing grease -arrow-.
♦ Allocate grease using ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA) .
♦ The open side of the oil seals faces toward the side with fluid
filling.
♦ Lightly oil O-rings before installing; this prevents the rings be‐
ing crushed when inserted.
Sealant
♦ Thoroughly clean housing joint surfaces before applying seal‐
ant .
♦ Apply sealant uniformly and not too thickly.
♦ Allocation ⇒ Electronic parts catalogue (ETKA) .
♦ Breather holes must remain free of sealant .
6. Repair notes 9
Arteon 2018 ➤
Locking devices
♦ Renew retaining rings.

♦ Do not overstretch retaining rings.
♦ Retaining rings must locate properly in grooves.
♦ Renew spring pins. Installation position: slot must be in line
with direction of force.
Nuts and bolts
♦ Loosen and tighten securing bolts and nuts for covers and
housings alternately and diagonally.
♦ Do not cant especially delicate parts, such as clutch pressure
plates. Loosen and tighten bolts and nuts alternately and in
stages.
♦ Specified torques given are for unlubricated nuts, bolts and
screws.
♦ Renew self-locking bolts and nuts after each removal.
♦ Ensure with threaded connections that contact surfaces as
well as nuts and bolts are rewaxed only after assembly, if nec‐
essary.
♦ Use a thread chaser to clear residual locking fluid from all
threaded holes into which self-locking bolts are to be screwed.
Otherwise there is a danger of bolts shearing when subse‐
quently being removed.
♦ Check pitch of thread, to ensure correct thread chaser is used
to clean threads and to ensure the threads are not damaged.
Clutch operation
Disconnect battery ⇒ Electrical system; Rep. gr. 27 ; Battery;
When reconnecting battery, refer to ⇒ Electrical system; Rep. gr.
27 ; Battery; Disconnecting and connecting battery .
Clutch
♦ Ensure that the pressure plate does not cant: loosen and tight‐
en bolts alternately and diagonally and in several gradual
stages.
♦ In order to reduce the smell of a burned clutch, the clutch
housing as well as the stopping face of the flywheel must be
thoroughly cleaned with a cloth.

2.1 Removing gearbox

Brief description
The gearbox is removed downwards separately.
»From above«
The battery, air filter and starter are removed. The engine and
gearbox must be supported before the left subframe mounting is
removed.
»From below«
Left drive shaft is removed. The right drive shaft is disconnected
from the gearbox but remains installed in the wheel bearing hous‐
ing. It needs only to be swung to the side. To do this requires that
the connection between the suspension strut and suspension link
be separated.
The engine and gearbox are lowered on the left side of the vehi‐
cle. The engine and gearbox must be pressed forwards slightly
with a tool to prevent the gearbox from colliding with the subframe.

Note
♦ Refer to procedure “Removing gearbox” for required special

tools ⇒ page 55 .
♦ Renew self-locking bolts and nuts after each removal.
♦ Renew bolts that are tightened with turning further angle after
each removal.
♦ All cable ties which were opened or cut during removal must
be renewed at the same points.

used, clean the splines of the hub. Remove corrosion and ap‐
ply only a very thin coat of clutch plate spline grease to splines.
Then, move the clutch plate back and forth on the drive shaft
until the hub moves easily on the shaft. Remove excessive
grease.
