Gents,
I am in the process of disconnecting everything on my 99 C4 tip for an engine/tranny removal, following the workshop manual, but am not sure about the tranny carrier and driveshaft disconnection. The workshop manual says to remove the 4 cover/carrier plate bolts and the 2 tranny carrier bolts, which are both bolted to the tranny by the two horizontal through bolts. This would imply that both drop with the engine/tranny.
However, the manual says nothing about the front wheel driveshaft bolts, which would be extremely difficult to get to without removing the cover/carrier plate.
Is the correct procedure for the C4 to support the tranny and take the 2 horizontal through bolts out, and then the 4 cover/carrier plate bolts, then disconnect the 3 front wheel driveshaft bolts??
Best regards
