    Great video, had accumulated the parts but wasn't sure where the pollen filter was located! I'm doing the brakes all round- OSR is a nightmare- spent yesterday (in vain) tring to wind back the caliper piston but considering the mess of the disc and pad (really uneven wear to the inside surface maybe 50% of the smaller radius) I think the caliper is actually goosed and is not applying pressure square to the disc face and is jammed, so have ordered a pair and will just change both starting with the NSR and do a fluid flush as I go. Front pads are not bad but the discs are pretty worn (not sure what the recommended thickness is) so doing all 4 corners. In your video you say the brake master cylinder services the clutch too- any advice on flushing that if I'm doing the brakes, never touched anything clutch related that doesn't have a cable!! For the oil change I always run the car beforehand to get the oil warm and runny, and on the refill use an old cut off plastic bottle for a funnel as it's always windy here in Scotland and that catches the oil as you pour and makes a right mess!!

      There can be many reasons why a modern car will cut out like this. Some are complicated. Might be best to seek expert help for an in depth diagnosis. Please be careful, a car that randomly cuts out can be dangerous and in my opinion best not driven until repaired.

    Question why do some mechanics recommend you should throw clean oil in the oil filter

    • @fixdatcar7281
      @fixdatcar7281 8 місяців тому

      When an engine is started on a new filter there is a very short period of low oil pressure, some people think this can be mitigated by pre-filling the filter. In my opinion changing a filter is messy enough without also spilling fresh oil. I think the gains of pre-filling are negligible.

  • @OpComDiagnostics
    @OpComDiagnostics 10 місяців тому

    The advice about OpCom is incorrect. Later versions are perfectly capable of pulling the security code as long as the correct, matching firmware is used. 131223 works with 1.60, 160115a, 181022a and 210406b all need firmware 1.67. This only works though on the Corsa C, Tigra B, Meriva A and Combos built on the same platform. If you want to get the code from other models you need an OpCom Advanced unit.

    Thanks again for this final stage. Viewers should be aware there is a small but extremely vital seal that sits inside the plastic elbow and is on the inner bell housing side. Forgetting to check for this could result the gearbox coming off again.

  • @robjenkins9450
    @robjenkins9450 Рік тому

    Awesome piece of detailed video with very useful explanations. I've been rebuilding one of these engines from the bottom up and when I got to the new clutch stage I was pondering how to locate the plate. I was scratching around for a suitable bush for the crank that I considered grinding into 2 halves then picking them out afterwards. Your 15mm pipe idea was genius, so I went with that. I used 3 off 11mm I/d x 3.5 section O rings, they're easy to fish out afterwards. Why on earth would someone design a crankshaft with a bore larger than the clutch spline !!!

    Hi, So only my right back indicator is not working at all, do you think changing the relay will also help ? Thanks.

    • @fixdatcar7281
      @fixdatcar7281 Рік тому

      This is unlikely to be a relay fault. Start by changing the bulb a checking contacts. Then check the earth connection to the cluster. Good luck.

    My 2016 i10 has only done 28000 miles but is obviously out of warranty. My garage wants over £200 for a service and MOT but I only do 3000 miles a year. Is it worth me trying this myself, considering I won't get a service stamp in my book which might reduce the value at the time I come to sell it on? Any advice on this angle please?

    @frustratedhomebuyer Рік тому

    Hi thanks for this video, I'm trying to diagnose a very very slow coolant leak on my 2014 i10, so I'll have a good look around the water pump to see if there are any problems there. A quick question on coolant, I'm struggling to work out what coolant I should be using, the manual is very vague and just states that it must contain ethylene-glycol, but says nothing about whether it should be IAT, OAT, HOAT, P- HOAT etc. My local garage had a look at the coolant leak and replaced the thermostat 'O' ring, but it's still losing coolant - they put in a blue coolant, but without knowing what it is exactly, I can't top the coolant up properly as it goes down. The car doesn't overheat at all, so I'm not suspecting head gasket failure, more likely a small hole in the radiator, a duff cap or a hose leak somewhere.

    • @fixdatcar7281
      @fixdatcar7281 Рік тому

      The coolant I use is "Orange". This is suitable for modern Aluminium Cylinder heads. "Blue" is old school stuff that you might use for a cast iron head, such as a classic car. Finding a leak is largely through close visual inspection. Usually there is a white flakey trail or a visible drip. Be sure to check behind the water pump pulley amongst other places.

    Thanks for that video, I have the exact same car. I feel like, I would be that daughter as I am a woman at least. A couple of questions: can I use vaseline to smear the new oilfilter? If not, which oil to buy? Do I have to buy a chainwrench? (an object I have never seen before) or can I use anything else. Any ideas as how I flush the coolingsystem as well. 😊

    • @fixdatcar7281
      @fixdatcar7281 Рік тому

      Don't use vaseline anywhere on a car it can break down under heat or pressure. The oil for your car will be 5-30 fully synthetic. smear the seal with a drop of this before screwing on. The filter will be too tight to remove by hand, but there are many types of wrenches you can buy. For antifreeze replacement please see my other video on water pump replacement where I drain and refill coolant
