Tools Required

1. Remove the transmission. Refer to Transmission Replacement .
2. Install J 44643 in order to hold the flywheel.




Caution: When removing, handling or installing this component wear protective gloves. The sharp edges on the component may be very sharp and may cause injury.

3. Remove and discard the flywheel bolts.
4. Remove the flywheel washer and flywheel.

Caution: When removing, handling or installing this component wear protective gloves. The sharp edges on the component may be very sharp and may cause injury.

1. Install the flywheel.

Notice: Refer to Fastener Notice in the Preface section.

2. Install the flywheel washer with the beveled side facing the engine.

Notice: This component uses bolts with a preapplied molybdenum disulfide coating for thread lubrication. Do not remove the coating or use any additional lubricant. Improperly lubricated threads will adversely affect the bolt torque and clamp load. Improper bolt torque and clamp load can lead to engine damage.

3. Install NEW flywheel bolts.



4. Tighten the flywheel bolts in the proper sequence.

Tighten

1. Tighten the bolts a first pass to 79 N·m (58 lb ft).
2. Tighten the bolts a second pass to 60 degrees using J 45059 .
3. Tighten the bolts a final pass an additional 60 degrees using J 45059 .



5. Remove J 44643 from the flywheel.

1. Remove the clutch. Refer to Clutch Assembly Replacement .
2. Remove the starter motor. Refer to Starter Motor Replacement .
3. Install J 44643 in order to hold the flywheel.




Important: DO NOT use the clutch pressure plate bolts. Use a bolt of the correct thread and length that protrudes enough to use a pry bar.

4. Install 2 bolts into the clutch pressure plate mounting hole 180 degrees apart.
5. Using a long pry bar, turn the secondary ring of the dual mass flywheel clockwise until the flywheel mounting bolts can be accessed. It may be required to turn the secondary ring past the bolt holes in order to compensate the spring tension.



6. Remove and discard the flywheel bolts.
7. Remove the flywheel.



8. If necessary, remove the pilot bearing.
9. If required, clean and inspect the flywheel. Refer to Engine Flywheel Cleaning and Inspection .
