Due to recent events, we would like to notify you that the removal/installation of the propeller shaft may only be conducted with the aid of a second person. The propeller shaft must be in as straight a position as possible when it is being removed/installed, transported and stored. The propeller shaft intermediate bearing must be installed free of tension when installing the propeller shaft.
Do not kink the propeller shaft. Otherwise, there is a risk that damage may generate vibrations or humming noise in the passenger compartment.
