Selector Lever Cable, Checking And Adjusting: Notes
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Torque Wrench 5-50 Nm VAG 1331
Short description
The selector lever cable must be disconnected from the transmission in order to check it for ease of movement. Lay the removed end down so that it does not touch anything.
The selector lever moves and the selector lever cable will be attached again.
After that, selector lever cable must be adjusted.
Do not grease the selector lever cable connection!
Selector lever cable must always be adjusted if:
- The selector lever cable was removed from the transmission.
- The engine and/or transmission were removed and installed.
- Parts of subframe mount were removed and installed.
- The selector lever cable and the selector mechanism were removed and installed.
- Engine/transmission positions changes, for example, were installed free of tension.
