Balance shaft intermediate gear - tightening order
Caution! Be sure to replace the intermediate gear of the balance shaft. Otherwise, the gear will run out - engine damage! The new intermediate shaft sprocket is coated with varnish. Soon this varnish will wear off, and the lateral clearance of the teeth will be adjusted automatically due to this.
Tighten the new screw as follows.

- 1. Pre-tighten to 10 Nm.
- 2. Turn the intermediate shaft gear. The intermediate shaft gear should not have any play. If so, loosen and tighten again.
- 3. Then tighten to a torque of 25 Nm.
- 4. Using a rigid wrench, turn the gear 90° (¼ turn). Check the marking on the intermediate shaft/balance shaft gear "arrow".
