4.66 Transportation Safeguards, Removing
Transportation Blocks
Note
♦
Transportation blocks are installed on the suspension strut
piston rod for some vehicle versions.
♦
Transportation blocks should prevent the vehicle from bounc‐
ing when being driven on to an automobile transporter or
railroad car and thereby become damaged.
WARNING
The transportation blocks must always be removed before de‐
livering the vehicle! There is a “Warning!” hang tag hanging
from the rearview mirror as a reminder.
– Vehicles with transportation blocks in the suspension struts
are identified by a hanging tag on the mirror -arrow-.
Transportation Blocks, Removing from Piston Rod
– Relieve the load on the coil springs by lifting the vehicle on the
hoist.
– Slide the suspension strut protective cover -arrow- upward.
WARNING
There are up to three transportation blocks installed on the
front axle on each side!
Using disassembly tools (for example lubricant spray, silicone
or similar) is prohibited.
– Press the visible transportation block -arrow- from the piston
rod.
– By pressing lightly inward on the circumference of the boot,
feel for the other transportation blocks and slide them down‐
ward on the piston rod in the direction of the shock absorber
cap using the folds in the boot.
– Push the remaining transportation blocks from the piston rod.
