  1. Extractor T40176
  2. Engine and Transmission Holder VAS 6095
  3. Grease for clutch disc shaft splines G 000 100

Removing

Scheme 106

Scheme 106
  1. Secure the transmission to the VAS 6095. Refer to «TRANSMISSION, SECURING IN ENGINE/TRANSMISSION HOLDER»(/audi/q5/i-2008-2012/remont/automatic-trans/#controls-housing-automatic-transmission-0b6-awd__transmission-securing-in-enginetransmission-holder) .

Remove the left flange shaft. Refer to LEFT FLANGE SHAFT .

Secure the T40176 to the torque converter -A- with the nut -B-.

Rotate the T40176 upward.

Scheme 107

Scheme 107

Note. To prevent the torque converter from tilting, counter hold it underneath as illustrated. Ignore -arrow-.

Remove the torque converter from the input shaft -arrows- without tilting the converter.

Set the torque converter down carefully, for example on the workbench.

Installing

Scheme 108

Scheme 108

Install in reverse order, paying attention to the following

Always clean the torque converter bell housing in the area where the differential is accessed -arrow A- and the shaft seal -arrow B-.

Note. Replace the shaft seal between the differential and transmission housing -arrow B- if it is damaged. Refer to FRONT FINAL DRIVE OVERVIEW .

Fill the space between the sealing and dust lip half way with sealing grease G 052 128 A1.

Clean the splines on the input shaft -2- and the torque converter, remove any corrosion and apply a very thin layer of clutch disc spline grease G 000 100 to the splines. Remove any excess grease.

Scheme 109

Scheme 109

Slide the torque converter carefully onto the input shaft -arrow- using the T40176. Be careful not to tilt the converter when sliding it on.

Remove the T40176 from the torque converter -A-.

Remove the nut -B-.

Install the left flange shaft. Refer to LEFT FLANGE SHAFT .

TORQUE CONVERTER SHAFT SEAL

Special tools and workshop equipment required

  1. Extractor Lever VW 681
  2. Thrust Piece T10137

Procedure

Scheme 110

Scheme 110

Remove the torque converter. Refer to TORQUE CONVERTER .

Pry out the shaft seal using the VW 681.

Note. The illustration shows a different transmission.

Apply ATF to circumference and sealing lips of the shaft seal.

  1. Installed position: Open side of the shaft seal faces the transmission.
