Volkswagen 01M Transmission. Manual — part 73

In case of soiling of the ATF via shavings or during a major
transmission overhaul, torque converter must be drained
as follows:

- Extract ATF from torque converter using oil extractor
V.A.G 1358 A and oil extractor probe V.A.G 1358 A .

Torque converter, installing

- Press torque converter hub through oil seal as far as first
stop.

- Lightly press torque converter inwards and turn until slots
on torque converter hub engage in drive lugs on ATF pump
gear and torque converter slides in a noticeable distance.

Caution!

If the torque converter is not properly installed, the
drive lugs on the torque converter and the ATF pump
will be severely damaged when the transmission is
attached to the engine.

- After "feeling" the converter slide in as far as top, pull it
back about 5 mm.

This brings the sealing lip back into its "correct location" if it
was disturbed during installation.

Before tightening the connecting bolts of the
engine/transmission, check that the torque converter
can be turned behind the drive plate, and keep
checking when tightening the bolts.

If the torque converter cannot be turned, it should be
assumed that it is not properly installed. The drive
plate surface and the ATF pump will be damaged.

- After installing transmission, check ATF level and top off
