Loosen the oil pan mounting bolts by 0.5 turns. Unscrew the bolts (6 pcs.) securing the crankshaft rear oil seal cover. Carefully detach the oil pan sealing gasket from the rear oil seal cover and remove the cover.

After removing the rear oil seal cover, check the oil pan sealing gasket for damage. If necessary, remove the oil pan and replace its sealing gasket.

Attention! The rear oil seal cover is supplied complete with the oil seal. Since 04.1990, the oil seal supplied is used and stored only on a special support sleeve. If the oil seal has been stored without a support sleeve for more than six months, do not install such an oil seal. The new oil seal does not have a spiral twisted expander.


The working edge of the seal is very sensitive and should never be bent or touched by hand.

If it is necessary to remove the seal and press in a new one, use the "11.1.260" tool in combination with the "00.5.500" tool.
