Major maintenance of RKPP demands from the performer of a high skill level as assumes need of exact exposure of a set of gaps by selection of adjusting washers and remote plugs. Besides, internal components of a transmission are rather difficult for finding on free sale, not to mention the high prices for them. In view of told, originators of the real Management recommend to make in case of violations of serviceability of functioning of RKPP replacement it on the new or restored block.

Nevertheless, rather skilled amateur mechanic without effort can execute transmission repair by own forces under condition of existence of the special tool and at a slow approach to performance as appropriate all necessary procedures.

In number of special tools without which application repair of RKPP becomes impossible, nippers for extraction of external and internal lock rings, a set of strippers, a hammer with sliding brisk, a set of drifts, a tsiferblatny measuring instrument of plunzherny type and, whenever possible, a hydraulic press belong. Besides, the workplace should be equipped with a big strong workbench with a vice.

Some problems are rather accurately adhered to functioning of concrete knots of a transmission that allows to reduce essentially time for identification and elimination of defects (see. Diagnostics of malfunctions of knots and car systems).
