hello,

i have remove and install my new transmission this week , the most difficult is to unscrews the seven transmission bolts...

thanks for your advice advice ::))

thanks a lot

how do you remove the six converter fastening screws ,the easiest access ??

thanks

hello,

I received my new transmission, someone have the bentley manual, just the chapter on transmission in PDF ?

Work shop manual is not explicit for uncoupling..

thanks :)

ps : i can buy a PDF

I have not seen a good tutorial on tiptronic removal, but I'm sure there is one somewhere.

Here is one for the manual:

Again, from my understanding if you have a Z.F. model transmission it can be removed separate from the engine with just a few more steps.

If yours is a Mercedes trans, then as far as I know, both the engine and transmission have to come out.

For filling the transmission it is important that the correct procedures are followed:

ok thanks, it's a Z F model transmission , default of drive shaft :> PIWIS.

Ok , i try to change it without removing the engine and secure the converter, i don't have a lift or ramp, so a tutorial will be appreciate :), for drain away it's the same process?

no screws around transmission

OK Thanks, i found the workshop manual 996 ,the engine does not interfere with the upper screws ?
