Removal WARNING: All vehicles are equipped with gas pressurized shock absorbers which will extend unassisted. Do not apply heat or flame to the shock absorbers during removal or component servicing. Failure to follow these instructions can result in personal injury. CAUTION: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect the performance of vital components and their failure can result in major service expense. They must be replaced with the same part number or an equivalent part if replacement is necessary. Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to ensure proper retention of these parts. Vehicles equipped with air suspension 1. WARNING: The electrical power to the air suspension system must be turned off prior to hoisting, jacking or towing an air suspension vehicle. Failure to do so can result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs, which can result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations. Turn the air suspension service switch off. All vehicles 2. Raise and support the vehicle. For additional information, refer to Section 100-02. 3. Use the special tool 014-00942 or equivalent to support the rear axle. Vehicles equipped with air suspension 4. WARNING: Do not remove an air spring under any circumstances when there is air pressure in the air spring. Do not remove any components supporting an air spring without exhausting the air. Release the air pressure from the air springs. For additional information, refer to Section 204-05. All vehicles 5. NOTE: Replace shock absorbers individually as required. It is not necessary to replace in pairs. NOTE: To assist in removing the upper attachment on shock absorbers, use a plastic dust tube and place an open end wrench on the hex stamped into the dust tube’s metal cap. For shock absorbers with a steel dust tube, simply grasp the tube to prevent stud rotation when loosening the retaining nut. Remove the shock absorber upper retaining nut, washer and insulator from the stud on the upper side of the frame. 6. Remove and discard the nut. Disconnect the shock absorber lower stud from the mounting bracket on the rear axle assembly. Installation All vehicles 1. To install, reverse the removal procedure. Vehicles equipped with air suspension 2. Inflate the air springs. For additional information, refer to Section 204-05.

Master Cylinder, In Vehicle WARNING: Brake fluid contains polyglycol ethers and polyglycols. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water and induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately. CAUTION: Do not allow the brake master cylinder reservoir to run dry during the bleeding operation. Keep the brake master cylinder reservoir filled with the specified brake fluid. Never reuse the brake fluid that has been drained from the hydraulic system. CAUTION: Brake fluid is harmful to painted and plastic surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled onto a painted or plastic surface, immediately wash it with water. NOTE: When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected for repair or new installation, air may get into the system and cause spongy brake pedal action. This requires bleeding of the hydraulic system after it has been correctly connected. The hydraulic system can be bled manually or with pressure bleeding equipment. 1. NOTE: When a new brake master cylinder has been installed or the system has been emptied, or partially emptied, it should be primed to prevent air from getting into the system. Disconnect the brake master cylinder outlet tubes. 2. Install short brake tubes with ends submerged in the brake master cylinder reservoir and fill the brake master cylinder reservoir with High Performance DOT 3 Brake Fluid C6AZ- 19542-AB or equivalent DOT 3 fluid meeting Ford specification ESA-M6C25-A. 3. Have an assistant pump the brake pedal until clear fluid flows from both brake tubes without air bubbles. 4. Remove the short brake tubes and install the brake outlet tubes. 5. Bleed each brake tube at the brake master cylinder as follows: 1. Have an assistant pump the brake pedal and then hold firm pressure on the brake pedal. 2. Loosen the rearmost brake tube fittings until a stream of brake fluid comes out. Have an assistant maintain pressure on the brake pedal while tightening the brake tube fitting. 3. Repeat this operation until clear, bubble-free fluid comes out. 4. Refill the brake master cylinder reservoir as necessary. Repeat the bleeding operation at the front brake tube. 6. While the assistant maintains pressure on the brake pedal, tighten the brake tubes.

The lower screw is under a small cover at the bottom of the panel. Pop off the cover with the small flat blade screwdriver and remove the screw. Pop the top clip by gently pulling at the top of panel. Pull the panel free, noting the way it clips to the lower door opening trim strip. For A4/A6/allroad: The panel is fastened by two phillips screws. The lower screw is under a small cover at the bottom of the panel. Pop off the cover with the small flat blade screwdriver and remove the screw. the upper screw and gently pull the panel free, noting the way it clips to the lower door opening trim strip. For all cars: Firmly grab lower door opening trim strip and pull upwards to pop the clips from the car body, starting at the front. This will free the carpet edge. Reach beneath the carpet to find the ECU protective plastic box. Pull forward and up to release it from the clips on the floorboard. Once released, the entire box can be pulled out from under carpet, still attached to its wiring harness. Pop open the lid of this box to reveal the transmission ECU. Wiggle the ECU free from the plastic box. The wiring harness unfastens from the ECU by rotating the silver metal clip away from the ECU body.
