2007 Chevrolet Corvette Flywheel Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: How to Properly Replace an Engine Flywheel Without Damaging the Flex Plate on 2007 Chevrolet Corvette?

  A: The first step to replace the engine Flywheel demands removal of catalytic converters followed by automatic transmission drives the support and manual transmission demands clutch assembly removal. Create permanent marks by writing at both ends of the Crankshaft and manual transmission Flywheel to keep the parts aligned. The procedure for automatic transmissions starts with removing engine Flywheel bolts which is followed by separating the engine Flywheel from its position. Establish correct alignment of the new engine Flywheel by matching it to the marked points on the Crankshaft. Basic threadlock treatment must occur on the Flywheel bolt threads prior to their installation with minimal tightness. Perform a three-stage sequence of bolt torque on engine Flywheel using a prescribed torque order starting at 20 n.m and finishing at 100 n.m. The driveline support goes back together with the clutch assembly of manual transmissions along with the Catalytic Converter. The automatic transmission engine Flywheel comes with prop shaft hub and flex plate components that must stay intact since the components are designed to be balanced as one assembly unit. A complete replacement of the Flywheel assembly should be performed whenever service is needed.
