Repair Kit Gear Turret
Saab 9-3 (03-)
22.06.2016The most common reason for gear changing issues is a worn pivot on the gear turret. A pivot pin operates through a nylon sleeve. This is a poor design because the nylon gets worn. A small amount of play in this pivot leads to serious problems. Apply our improved pivot screw and PTFE bush bearing to get rid of gear changing issues.
Disassemble the gear turret according to manufacturer specifications.
Fix the turret in a vice.
Cut out the grouting withthe included milling tool.
Drive out the shaft with the included mandrel.
This should drop out.
Remove the old plastic bushing.
Now you can see the cause of the damage. Oxidated aluminium compressed the bushing, which blocks the shaft.
Clean the eye with adequate workshop equipment.
Use the included screw, nut and washer to pull the new bushing into the eye. Do this carefully. The effort of the repair depends on this step!
Perfectly fitted bushing.
Attach the rocker actuator in the inital position.
Insert the new shaft from the ball end. A little bit of grease does not hurt.
Apply washer and nut. Tighten to app. 20 Nm (hand-tight).
Finished. Now the turret can be reassembled to the gear box.
