Remove the bolt securing the drive shaft to the hub.
Note: If the drive shaft mounting bolt is unscrewed more than 90°, the wheel bearing must not be loaded with the weight of the vehicle, i.e. the vehicle must not be standing on the wheels. If the wheel bearing is loaded with the weight of the vehicle when the drive shaft mounting bolt is unscrewed, the inner bearing will be damaged, which will reduce its service life. If the vehicle must be mounted on the wheels or moved, the following must be observed: Install the outer joint instead of the cardan shaft. Tighten the mounting bolt (use old) outer CV joint with a torque of 120 Nm.
Remove the wheel. Unscrew the nut "arrow" and disconnect the stabilizer bar "1" from the shock absorber bar.
On a vehicle with automatic headlight corrector, unscrew nut "1" of the left front ground clearance sensor "G78".
Unscrew the nuts securing the arrow.
Remove the outer joint of the drive shaft from the wheel hub. Tie the drive shaft to the body with wire.
Note: The drive shaft must not hang downwards, as this will cause damage to the inner joint.
Screw the ball joint back onto the wishbone. Screw the engine and transmission jack "VAG 1383A" together with the support mount "T10149" to the hub with a wheel bolt. Loosen the bolt connecting the steering knuckle and the shock absorber strut "arrow".
Insert spacer "3424" into the slot of the steering knuckle.
Turn it with a ratchet wrench by 90° and remove the wrench from the spacer "3424". Press the brake disc by hand in the direction of the shock absorber strut. Otherwise, the shock absorber may become skewed in the hole in the steering knuckle. Remove the shock absorber strut from the hole in the steering knuckle by pulling it down. The steering knuckle must be lowered using a jack for engines and transmission units, e.g. "VAG 1383A" until the shock absorber strut completely exits the hole in the steering knuckle. Tie up the steering knuckle with wire. Place a jack for engines and transmission units "VAG 1383A" under the steering knuckle. Remove the casing of the water drain box.
Installation
Install the shock absorber strut, with both arrows pointing parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
Tighten the bolts securing the upper shock absorber support "1". Install the water drain box casing.

Screw the VAG 1383A engine and transmission jack together with the T10149 support mount to the hub with a wheel bolt. Install the shock absorber strut on the steering knuckle. Untie the wire from the steering knuckle. Using the jack, raise the steering knuckle so that the strut-to-knuckle mounting bolt can be inserted. While lifting, press the brake disc by hand in the direction of the shock absorber strut. Otherwise, the shock absorber may become tilted in the steering knuckle hole. Remove the strut "3424". Tighten the shock absorber strut mounting bolt in the steering knuckle "arrow". Loosen the nuts "arrow". Disconnect the wishbone from the ball joint. Insert the drive shaft into the wheel hub. Install the ball joint together with the steering knuckle on the wishbone. Screw the ball joint to the triangular "arrow" lever.
Note: Check the ball joint boot for damage or kinks.
Attach the wire from the ABS sensor to the shock absorber. Insert it into the shock absorber and attach the stabilizer bar. Tighten the drive shaft to hub mounting bolt. Tighten the wheel mounting bolts.
