N30/2











Torque wrench
(80 - 260 Nm)




10
Disconnect ASD control module(N30/2).
(see 42, Figure 1, step 3).

Return wheel to its starting position in 1.0
(see 42, Figure 1, step 2).

Engine: at idle
Pressure within hydraulic system: 50 - 63 bar.
(see 33 1.0)

Turn torque wrench through 90° (see 42 figure 1, step
4).
Observe and record the value.












Measured frictional torque in 2.0 minus
measured frictional torque
in 1.0 should be > 100 Nm.
















If frictional torque difference is
< 100 Nm, replace rear axle center piece.
