After cleaning a bit it looks - normal (see pic). It has obviously not had to much contact to the input shaft (of A833) and the input shaft (the tip that runs inside that bearing) does not look worn or so.

It that much play normal between input shaft and pilot bearing?

I assume that one should not put grease into that bearing when reassembling, correct?



Looks normal. It only needs a light coating of (White Lithium) grease when you install the transmission. Both on the bushing and the tip of he transmission input shaft. Do not over fill.
