Shaft Seals, Sealing Rings, O-Rings, Seals♦ O-rings, shaft seals and seals must be replaced.♦ After removing gaskets, examine contact surface on housing/

shaft for burr resulting from removal or for other signs of dam‐age.

♦ Before installing radial shaft seal, fill space between sealinglips -arrow- halfway with Grease - G 052 128 A1- .

♦ The open side of the seals point toward the fluid to be sealedin.

♦ Before installing, lightly lubricate shaft seal outer circumfer‐ence and sealing lips with ATF or gear oil, depending oninstallation location.

♦ Coat O-rings with ATF before inserting to prevent crushingrings during installation.

♦ Always only use approved ATF. Other types of lubricationcause faults to occur in the transmission hydraulics.

♦ Press in new shaft seal, so that the sealing lip does not run onthe same point as the sealing lip of the old shaft seal (useinsertion depth tolerances).

♦ Replace paper gaskets, thoroughly clean sealing surfaces andcompletely remove old seals.

♦ After installing, check the relevant fluid levels and fill if neces‐sary. Capacities. Refer to ⇒ “5 Capacities”, page 5 . Specifi‐cations. Refer to the Parts Catalog.

Bolts and Nuts♦ Loosen bolts in opposite of tightening sequence if another se‐

quence is not specified.♦ Nuts and bolts which secure covers and housings should be

loosened and tightened crosswise in stages if no tighteningsequence is specified.

♦ The tightening specifications stated apply to non-oiled nutsand bolts.

♦ Always replace self-locking nuts and bolts.♦ Use a wire brush to clean the threads of bolts that were

screwed in with locking compound. Install the bolts with Lock‐ing Fluid - AMV 185 101 A1- .

♦ Threaded holes with self-locking bolts or bolts coated withlocking fluid must be cleaned, for example using a thread tap.Otherwise there is a risk that the bolts will shear the next timethey are removed.

Circlips♦ Do not overstretch the circlips.♦ Always replace damaged or stretched circlips.♦ The circlips must fit completely inside the groove.Bearings♦ Insert bearing with axle oil or ATF, depending on installation

location.♦ Replace the transmission if any of the shift elements are

scorched.

Control Modules, Electronic Components and Contacts♦ Only touch electrical components after discharging static elec‐

tricity on a grounded object, for example by touching (skincontact) vehicle or vehicle lift.

♦ Connector contacts in electric connectors, control modulesand electrical components must not be touched with the handsunder any circumstances. They can be destroyed by staticdischarge.

8.3 Transmission, Clean Working Condi‐tions

♦ Always clean connection places and surrounding areas withengine or brake cleaner before loosening and dry cleaned pla‐ces.

♦ Clean the transmission and transmission components usingCleaning Solution - D 009 401 04- .

♦ Use lint-free cloths when cleaning, for example, the “WYPALLX70/WORKHORSE” cloth made by Kimberly-Clark Professio‐nal.

♦ Seal all open lines and connections immediately with cleanplugs or caps from the Engine Bung Set - VAS6122-

♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover. Only uselint-free cloths for this!

♦ Carefully cover or plug unpacked components if repairs can‐not be performed immediately.

♦ Only install clean components: Install replacement parts im‐mediately after removing them from their packaging.

♦ Protect the disconnected connectors from dirt and moistureand only connect when they are dry.

8.4 Transmission AdaptationIn addition to the construction, the deciding factor for good andconstant shift quality is the precise control of the shifting ele‐ments. To maintain a consistent shift quality throughout the entiretransmission service life, various control and regulation parame‐ters must be adapted continuously and the determined adaptationvalues must be stored. These adaptations or this programmingprocess are called adaptation.The goal of a transmission adaptation is to compensate for pro‐duction tolerances of the transmission components and theirchanges throughout the service life. The adaptation values act ascorrective values or offsets which are added to or subtracted fromthe values (applied values) stored permanently in the transmis‐sion control module.When should the adaptation values be read, evaluated or erasedand when should an adaptation drive be performed?♦ If the customer indicates there is rough or hard shifting be‐

havior.♦ After replacing the ATF.♦ After repairing the clutches.♦ After replacing the valve body♦ After replacing the Transmission Control Module - J217-♦ After replacing the transmission♦ After a software update.

General Adaptation ConditionsThe adaptation can only take place when the appropriate definedadaptation conditions are met.The following information provides an overview of the criteria thatmust be met during an adaptation:♦ The ATF must be within a certain temperature range.♦ A certain gear or selector lever position must be engaged.♦ The engine load must be within a certain range. Generally a

very low engine load or very light pressure on the acceleratorpedal is required.

♦ There must be no Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) entries inthe transmission control module.

♦ Certain vehicle conditions must be present such as accelera‐tion or deceleration, constant driving, vehicle stopped with theengine running at idle, etc.

♦ There must be good road conditions, optimum road surface,no steep inclines or declines and the road must be as level aspossible.
