must always be connected to exhaust system.
Risk of injury through fan turning on automatically.
♦ Risk of injury through fan turning on automatically.
To Prevent Personal Injury and Damage to Electrical and Elec‐
tronic Components, Observe the Following:
♦ Connect and disconnect test equipment only when the ignition
is off.
Caution
Risk of damaging electronic components when disconnecting
the battery.

2.2 Start/Stop System Safety Precautions
Pay Attention to the Following when Working on Vehicles with a
Stop/Start System:
WARNING
Danger of injury through automatic motor starting with vehicles
with the Start/Stop System.
♦ For vehicles with an activated Start/Stop System (recog‐
nizable from a notification in the instrument cluster), the
motor can be started automatically if needed.
♦ Thus, make sure that the Start/Stop System is disabled
when working on the vehicle (turn off ignition, if needed,
turn the ignition back on).
2.3 Road Test with Testing Equipment
Safety Precautions
If Testing Equipment Must be Used During A Road Test, Observe
the Following:
WARNING
Distraction and testing equipment that is not secured properly
can cause accidents.
The passenger airbag could pose a risk if it deploys in a colli‐
sion.
• Operating testing equipment while driving is a distraction.
• There is an increased risk of injury due to unsecured test‐
ing equipment.
♦ Always secure testing equipment on the rear seat using a
strap and have a second person in the rear seat operate
it.
2.4 Subframe Safety Precautions
Note the Following when Working on the Subframe
Caution
The suspension components could be damaged.
♦ Do not rest the vehicle on its wheels if the subframe
mount, the steering gear or the subframe crossbrace are
not installed correctly.
♦ Do not support the vehicle on the subframe or the sub‐
frame crossbrace, for example, by a floor jack or similar
device.

⇒ “3.4 Contact Corrosion”, page 8
3.1 Clean Working Conditions, Guidelines
♦ Always clean the connection locations and the area around
them before loosening.
♦ Clean the transmission and transmission components using
Cleaning Solution - D 009 401 04- .
♦ Use lint-free cloths when cleaning, for example, the “WYPALL
X70/WORKHORSE” cloth made by Kimberly-Clark Professio‐
nal.
♦ Seal all open lines and connections immediately with clean
plugs or caps from the -VAS6122- .
♦ Place removed parts on a clean surface and cover them. Use
foil or lint-free clothes.
♦ Cover or close unpacked components if repairs cannot be
performed immediately.
♦ Only install clean components: Install replacement parts im‐
mediately after removing them from their packaging.
♦ Protect the disconnected connectors from dirt and moisture
and only connect when they are dry.
3.2 General Information
Transmission
♦ The 8-speed automatic transmission 0BK AWD is equipped
with 8 hydraulically activated forward gears. When the torque
converter lock-up clutch is closed, these forward gears be‐
come manually driven gears through bypassing the torque
converter slip.
♦ A special feature of the 0BK transmission is the position of the
front final drive (front axle differential with flange shafts) in front
of the torque converter. An even distribution of the weight be‐
tween the front and rear axles is attained.
Torque Converter
The torque converter is equipped with a slip-controlled torque
converter lock-up clutch. Due to the new design of this transmis‐
sion, the torque converter is located behind the front final drive.
Mechatronic
The Mechatronic combines the following components as a com‐
plete synchronized unit:
♦ Transmission Control Module - J217- , hydraulic control
♦ The sensors and actuators
The Mechatronic unit is installed in the transmission in the area
of the ATF pan.
Transmission Control Module - J217-
The control module is a part of the Mechatronic unit in the trans‐
mission.

Determining the driving situation and driving resistance depend‐
ent shift point occurs automatically.
Advantages:
♦ Usage-based shifting
♦ Maximum engine output is always available
♦ Individual adaptation of shift points in all driving situations
♦ Gear shift points are infinitely variable
On Board Diagnostics (OBD)
Use “Guided Fault Finding” to determine the exact cause of dam‐
age before servicing the automatic transmission.
Use the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester to perform “Guided Fault Find‐
ing”
Shift Point Changes on Inclines and Declines
When driving on inclines or declines, gears are automatically se‐
lected using additional shift characteristic maps. The selection is
based on accelerator pedal position and vehicle speed.
♦ The gear change map for extreme uphill stretches is matched
to engine output
