Crankshaft Sensor Wheel

Sensor Wheel on Crankshaft

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required
^ Torque wrench V.A.G 1331
^ Locking fluid D 154 100 A1

Procedure
Make sure the crankshaft/sensor wheel contact surface is free of oil and grease.





Note:
^ Sensor wheel may only be installed once, since attachment points - arrows - of countersunk screws - 1 - in sensor wheel - 2 - are so severely deformed after mounting the second time that bolt heads make contact on the crankshaft - 3 - and sensor wheel lies loosely under the bolt heads.

- Apply a thin coat of locking compound D 154 100 A1 to contact surfaces of crankshaft and sensor wheel for additional security.
- When installing, make sure that marking -VR6- - arrow - stands at individual threaded hole.
- Tighten all new screws lightly by hand.





- Then tighten new screw - 1 - to 10 Nm + 90 degree (1/4 rotation).
- Then new screws - 2 - to 10 Nm + 90 degree (1/4 rotation).
