Workshop procedure for VW — the exact step sequence and torque figures, straight from real workshop data.
🧭 Before you start
Fits: VW Sharan I / SEAT Alhambra (7M)
- Special tools named: T10392/1, T10392, puller
Don't miss
- Take care not to damage the splines on the spur gear.
🔧 Engine codes this applies to
📋 Procedure
- Remove sealing flange (belt pulley end) .
- Removing sump .
- Remove balancer shaft module
- Insert thrust piece T10392/1 in crankshaft end.
- Insert puller T10392 into holes of spur gear and turn clockwise (arrow), screw in locating pins (A).
- Counterhold crankshaft with ring spanner (A), pull spur gear off crankshaft journal by screwing spindle in using ring spanner (B) or ratchet. [Note: Check temperature when heating the new drive pulley using temperature gaugeVAS 6519, or hand-held multimeterV.A.G 1526D in combination with temperature sensorV.A.G 1526D/1. To do this, push measuring tip of temperature sensor onto drive pulley.At a temperature of 200 °C there are approx. 4 seconds remaining to position the drive pulley onto crankshaft.There is more time for positioning at a higher temperature (220 °C = approx. 6 seconds).Ensure absolute cleanliness on crankshaft end.]
- ⚠ The maximum temperature of 240 °C must not be exceeded, because this will lead to discolouring and distortion of the drive pulley. — Place new spur gear onto a commercially available hot plate and heat to at least 200 °C, maximum 240 °C. The inscription faces upwards.
- ⚠ There is a risk of burning. Wear suitable protective gloves for further procedure. — When the temperature is reached, take spur gear up using pliers, as shown in illustration. [Note: Take care not to damage the splines on the spur gear.]
- Slide spur gear quickly by hand without canting onto crankshaft end until stop using fitting tool10 - 203.
- Allow the spur gear to cool down a few minutes and then install balancer shaft module .

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.
