Our evaluations have shown that in some cases the usual replacement part identification procedure (depending on the vehicle data card) is bypassed. This results in bottlenecks when procuring and stocking up on our replacement parts in Germersheim. For this reason, we would like to ask you to maintain the usual replacement part identification procedure (depending on the vehicle data card) for any pending clutch repairs.
To improve the general quality situation, all clutch kits have been revised and reconfigured where necessary. The documentation required for our parts catalog (EPC) has already been completed and implemented.
In the event of a problem with annular spring break, we deliberately deviate from the procedure described here; this is described in detail in GI26.35-N-066848. This case forms an exception to the information given here.
