🧭 Before you start
Fits: Audi A4 Cabriolet B6/B7 (8H), Audi A4 B6/B7 (8E), Audi A8 D3 (4E, 2002–2010), Audi A6 C6 (4F, 2004–2011)
Don't miss
- When fitting planet carrier "„I“"(item 4) in clutch "„A“"(item 1), hold sun gear "„I“"(item 2) in position so that it does not fall out.
- When bending down the retaining tabs, maintain a distance of approx. 2 mm between the tips of the tabs and the retaining plate; otherwise the parts may be difficult to remove later.
- Make sure that circlip is seated securely all round in groove on cylinder "„A“".
📋 Procedure
- Clip axial needle bearing (3) into top of sun gear "„I“"(item 2).
- Fit sun gear "„I“"(item 2) in planet carrier "„I“"(item 4). [Note: When fitting planet carrier "„I“"(item 4) in clutch "„A“"(item 1), hold sun gear "„I“"(item 2) in position so that it does not fall out.]
- Insert planet carrier "„I“"(item 4) into clutch "„A“"(item 1).
- Renew locking plate (5).
- Insert locking plate (5) and secure it by turning anti-clockwise as far as stop.
- Bend down retaining tabs (1) on locking plate (2). [Note: When bending down the retaining tabs, maintain a distance of approx. 2 mm between the tips of the tabs and the retaining plate; otherwise the parts may be difficult to remove later.]
- Place clutch "„A“"(item 1) with planet carrier "„I“" on support T10283.
- Clip axial needle bearing (2) onto clutch "„E“"(item 3).
- Place clutch "„E“"(item 3) on planet carrier "„I“" in clutch "„A“"(item 1).
- Clip axial needle bearing (4) onto clutch "„E“".
- Allow inner plate carrier "„E“"(item 5) with intermediate shaft to engage in all plates of clutch "„E“"(item 3) by lifting and turning slightly as required.
- Lift inner plate carrier "„E“"(item 5) with intermediate shaft a few millimetres and then let it drop to check that all the plates have meshed.
- Clip axial needle bearing (2) into inner plate carrier "„A“"(item 1).
- Turn inner plate carrier "„A“" upside down.
- Insert inner plate carrier "„A“"(item 3) into clutch "„A“"(item 1), turning as required.
- Lift inner plate carrier "„A“"(item 3) a few millimetres and then let it drop to check that all the plates have meshed.
- Fit inner plate carrier "„B“"(item 2) onto clutch "„A“"(item 1).
- Insert circlip (arrow).
- Make sure that circlip is seated securely all round in groove on cylinder "„A“".

Who makes these pages, and how
TorqFix was built by a mechanic — after a 2,700 km drive with five roadside repairs that no diagnostic tool could explain.
The figures on this page come from manufacturer workshop documentation and are shown as they are. The page is assembled automatically from that data — it is not written by an AI. The AI works in the chat, where it answers for your specific car. It writes nothing here.
Variants of the same model differ. Cross-check torque against the factory manual for your engine before final tightening.
