Assembly - workshop manual

Hi,

Out of interest, putting a new gasket in the rear diff, manual shows a White cross in a black circle, does this mean to oil/grease gasket before fitting?



Seams to have this symbol a lot through manual but no reference to it that I can see, assuming its not gasket sealant as its also shown on bearings etc

Cheers

Ahhhh, just found it!!

Always replace after dissasembly!!

Cool back to the garage

what to grease ur self. Glad you found it saves others woundering so thanks for the share

That's interesting, I was just going to use sealant instead of the gasket? Bad idea?

The gasket was only £5 took a week to arrive, wether or not the gasket means the diff lines up properly in the subframe as its 1mm thick, saying that I installed it the other day and forgot to put the gasket in still lined up fine so cant see a reason why sealant wouldnt work, prob do a better job in fairness.

I'll see how sealant goes with it, I removed the crusty old gasket and cleaned the 2 surfaces up. Plenty of rear covers don't use a gasket I guess.
