3.1 General information
l purpos

Gearbox
♦ The torque of the engine is transmitted via the flywheel to the

nform
ercia

dual clutch gearbox. The flywheel and the dual clutch are
m

joined together by a toothed connection. Together they take

a
com

tio
on the function of the dual-mass flywheel.

n in
r
te o

thi
♦ The gearbox is structured like a manual gearbox. Through op‐

s
iva

do
posed hydraulic actuation of the dual clutch, it is operated like
r
rp

cum
an automatic gearbox. In other words, the gears are engaged
fo

en
g

automatically or manually via the Tiptronic system. There is no

The feedback for the gearbox concerning the selector lever po‐
AG.

sition is not transferred by mechanical means via the selector


lever cable and the multifunction switch (gear sensor) any more,
as is the case for the automatic gearbox. The information con‐
cerning selector lever positions or shifting operations are trans‐
ferred to the gearbox control unit via a separate control unit in the
selector mechanism and the CAN data bus. That is, gears are
shifted without any mechanical cables being involved. Only for
selector lever position “P” the parking lock is engaged mechani‐
cally via the selector lever cable.
Gear change point variations for gradients
An additional gear change map automatically selects gear
changes for gradients dependent upon accelerator pedal position
and driving speed.
• Gear change map for extreme uphill stretches is matched to
engine output.
• Gear change map for extreme downhill gradients is matched
to the braking efficiency of the engine.
• If a gear is selected directly via the Tiptronic system, it is also
possible to use the braking effect of the engine in a specific
gear, e.g. when driving down a slope with a trailer attached.

3.2 Rules for cleanliness


♦ First thoroughly clean connecting points and surrounding
areas and then loosen bolts.
♦ Seal open lines and connections immediately using clean
plugs or sealing caps from engine bung set - VAS 6122- .
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them to
prevent them from getting dirty. Use sheeting and paper for
this purpose. Use lint-free cloths only.
♦ Make sure that no dirt can enter an »open« gearbox.
♦ Install only clean parts; do not remove Genuine parts from
packaging until immediately before installing.

♦ If repair work cannot be performed immediately, cover opened


parts carefully.
♦ Protect disconnected electrical connectors from dirt and water,
and only reconnect them in dry condition.

♦ Loosen and tighten securing bolts and securing nut for covers

♦ Specified torques given are for unoiled nuts, bolts and screws.
♦ Clean threads of bolts which are to be installed with locking
fluid using a wire brush. Then insert bolts with locking fluid -
AMV 185 101 A1- .
♦ 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.
♦ Always renew self-locking bolts and nuts.

– Install new retaining ring -arrow A- and new O-ring -arrow B-
on right stub shaft.
– Insert bevel box and press against gearbox.

Note

Turn stub shaft if spline position is unfavourable (bevel box cannot


be pressed to stop against gearbox).

– If splines are correctly positioned and shafts are centred, then


bevel box will slide against contact surface on gearbox.

Caution

Retaining ring on stub shaft must engage correctly in differen‐


tial bevel gear. If retaining ring is not engaged, there is a risk
that stub shaft might move outwards.
Also, bevel box is not allowed to be bolted onto gearbox force‐
fully. Damage to gearbox or bevel box could result in both
cases.

– To ensure that the retaining ring engages properly in the dif‐


ferential bevel gear, strike the face of the spline stub several
times with a plastic hammer (weight 1000 - 2000 g).

port
Keep in mind that there is oil in the gearbox. Do not turn gearbox
with breathers downwards during transport or while on repair
stand. Oil will run out.

Note

If necessary, pull off breather cap and close using suitable plugs
to achieve an oil-tight seal.

Example: securing gearbox to assembly stand.
