Withdrawal
The operation of lifting and placing the vehicle on stands is dangerous! Therefore, before carrying out the operation, read Section Jacking and towing
1. Mark with paint the position of the corresponding front wheel relative to the hub. This will allow the assembly to install the balanced wheel in its original position. Loosen the wheel bolts with the vehicle on the ground. Raise the front of the car, put it on stands and remove the front wheel.
2. Take out a cable and a brake hose from the holder -1- on an amortization rack.
3. Turn away bolts of fastening and remove a support with a directing from a rotary fist and tie a wire to a body, address to the Section Removal and installation of the front brake guide.
Do not disconnect the brake hose. Otherwise, during installation, you will have to remove air from the brake system.
4. Vehicles with xenon headlamps: Remove angle bracket -1- for headlight beam adjustment from transverse arm -2-.
5. Turn away a nut - 1 - rocking support - 2 - from an amortization rack. At the same time, hold the wrench -3- behind the plane of the hinge pin.
6. Turn away a nut -1- and a tip of steering draft -2- from the rotary lever -3-, address to Section Removal and installation of a tip of steering draft.
7. Turn away a nut -1- and remove the hinge -2- from the rotary lever -3- a puller, for example, HAZET 779-1.
8. Tie the swing arm with wire to prevent it from falling.
9. Turn away on some turns a bolt -1- and remove the rotary lever -2- down from an amortization rack -3-.
10. If the swing arm cannot be removed (bottom arrow), open the slot of the rotary lever and fix the position of the tool. The workshop uses a special tool BMW-31-2-200 or KLANN KL-0101 for this purpose. Insert the tool into the slot and turn it 90°.
11. Support the shock strut from below with a garage lift so that it does not fall when the top mount is unscrewed.
12. Turn away three nuts of fastening -1 support of an amortization rack.
If the suspension strut support does not have a centering pin -2- or a corresponding hole, only one nut can be unscrewed. Mark the position of the threaded pin in relation to the wheel arch as accurately as possible in order to maintain the same camber after installation.
13. Take out an amortization rack from an arch of a wheel.
Installation
14. Carefully insert the suspension strut into the wheel arch. The centering pin must fit into the appropriate hole in the strut support. Screw new nuts onto the pins and tighten them to a torque of 25 Nm.
If there is no centering pin -2- or a corresponding hole in the suspension strut support, align the strut according to the marking made during removal.
15. Put on the steering knuckle -1- on the suspension strut -2- so that the centering pin -3- enters the slot of the steering knuckle.
16. Put the fist on the rack until it stops and tighten the bolt with a torque of 80 Nm.
17. Insert the hinge into a rotary fist and fix a new nut the moment of 65 Нм.
18. Connect the tie rod end to the steering knuckle and tighten with a new nut to 65 Nm.
19. Fix the rocker arm with a new self-locking nut to 65 Nm on the suspension strut. At the same time, hold the hinge pin from turning with a wrench.
20. Cars with xenon headlights: Install the headlight adjustment bracket on the transverse arm.
21. Press the cable and brake hose with rubber supports into the holder.
22. Install the caliper, refer to Section Removal and installation of the front brake guide.
23. Reinstall the front wheel so that the markings made during removal match. Pre-lubricate with a thin layer of bearing grease the centering belt of the wheel disk on the hub. Do not grease wheel bolts. Replace rusty bolts. Wrap bolts. Lower the vehicle onto the wheels and tighten the bolts crosswise to 100 Nm.
