Removing drive plate for torque converter
Note. Shims are fitted under or on the drive plate. These must be refitted again at the same place they were before the drive plate was removed. The shims are to be marked with a felt-tip pen before removal.
1. Block drive plate. For this, block the crankshaft at the belt pulley with the arm bracket Arm bracket T10069.
2. Unscrew drive plate. To do this, loosen the diagonal fastening screws.
3. Remove drive plate.
4. If drive plate is tight, lever off with a screwdriver where necessary.
