Bonjour merci pour toutes vos vidéos et particulièrement celle-ci car cela m’aidera dans mon travail bonne continuation et que votre avenir vous soit toujours merveilleux 🇫🇷
Hi Kevin.........great to see somebody putting bolts back with the first turning by hand with a little bit of grease instead of all those garages driving them in with powertools......and damaging thread.......!!
HI Kevin, Great video, this is very similar to the Suzuki Alto/Nissan Pixo 2009~2014, just a few minor differences but it and helped me alot wit the clutch replacement on the Alto thank you for uploading it. (new subscription and thumbs up ) whats up with people not giving useful vids a like? Also I dropped the alternator out of the way so I could use a rattle gun/socket on the lower starter bolt........
And still they’re having problems with mine . Gearbox specialists have opened the gearbox and say there’s no scoring marks on the bearings so their puzzled They did say however their was very little oil in the box . They’ve had the car 2 weeks now . When the garage sends the gearbox off do they drain the oil out first or is sent oil intact ? Any advice appreciated . should I get a refund on the car ?
Tkanks for this video. This helped me a lot when changing clutch in my wife's car. My is Suzuki Alto but setup is very similar. I am going to subscribe Your YT. Keep going M8. You are professional ;)
hehehehe....hehe...what are you doing here in the yard, almost on the street, on the ground, using a simple jack, it's simply - SHOCK !!! - absolutely professional work!! Hats off!! .... replacing the clutch is very difficult and you need to know it .... I do a lot of repairs in my Suzuki myself, but replacing the clutch is too much for me ... then you need to have experience like you you have... and you made a great video here!! I like it! .... but even for such a great video and a great tutorial, I wouldn't bother to replace the clutch disc, it's a very difficult job! .... nice greetings ... :)
I don't know why but on these cars there is no bumper cut outs for the front chassis plinth bolts which on ours were hidden underneath (until we made some with a hole saw bit and trimmed them with cutters! Almost looks factory!) Small tip for others as it is tighter in there than it looks, great camera positions Kevin, you can remove the air box and / or front exhaust section for more room /better access to the fiddly starter and back bolts. Adds just a few minutes and the exhaust bolts are the spring tensioned versions each end which do not seem to suffer as bad corrosion as static nuts, bolts or studs. Chance to change the "doughnuts" in these exhaust joints too.
Hi could I offer a small tip, if you're going to reuse 'stake' type nuts swap them over, ie drivers side nut onto passsanger side and vice versa, chances are you'll end up with a fresh portion of nut to stake back into the groove on the CV joint, thanks for the great videos, happy new year...
Wow! What a quick and professional job you did here. Really great to watch. I'm hoping this video will help me change the clutch on my Agila B this weekend. Will be donating to your PayPal for the invaluable help! Do you happen to know where I can find correct torque specs for all the bolts/nuts etc?
I have just bought a splash i have to fight the gear nob to get it into first gear and it vibrates when in gear. Is the clutch and flywheel needing changed or just clutch?
Max .,, they very rarely come out those long spanners but really handy to have. Otherwise I would have had to strip down that whole bracket and the mount to access that one bolt. Hope you’re doing great your end .., 🍻🍻
Thanks for the upload! Im up to the part of separating the gearbox from the engine and ive got it off about half a centimeter but I cant get it off any further. Any tips? Thanks.
Only Peugeot and a few Far East cars still does cable. But you notice the difference tho. Especially pulling off. I haven’t really seen a rear main seal leaking as of yet, they don’t usually leak unless there is movement in the crankshaft. What a lot of people mistake the rear main for is the sump seal directly underneath it.
Good work! It seemed as simple as Peugeot 107 but there are a few tricky bolts as in 8:05 ( I supposed you didn't want to remove the dampers there below) and a lot of stuff over the gearbox. I find really interesting the easy way you remove the plastic attachment for battery cables as in 13:50. Yesterday, I had to stop when trying to remove one as I didn't want break it. Was it red grease in the splines of the gearbox before removing the old bearing? Did you use a magnet in 42:50 or did it just fall down to the floor? Do you use an email for PayPal support? Thank you very much for the video!
Oscar always happy to get your feedback., the video doesn’t really reflect how compact the Engine bay is .,, The repair manual does ask to remove the back bracket to access that one starter bolt. But as you can see I have the long reach spanner that does the job of accessing that bolt. Always red red rubber grease on the spline .,, 😁😂 it was a magnet 🧲 job retrieving that socket .., I use PayPal yes. williamsmechanic@gmail.com
A massive thanks for these great videos Kevin. They have been a great resource that helped me change the clutch on my 2001 Toyota Yaris on my driveway. How do you deal with those nasty staked driveshaft nuts Toyota use? I damaged the threads on one driveshaft when removing the nut (despite my efforts to de-stake). Got away with it as the new nut just about went on, but I must have done something wrong?
That’s great to know the video came through for you .., sometimes the clamped part of the nut drives into the thread causing damage. But lucky you managed to get your one sorted. ✨✨🍻🍻🍻
@@WMCS ok thank you. Credits for you to replying so quickly. No need yet for our Nissan pixo (same car) but I can enjoy your videos. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work.
Why i have small shaking (vibrating) while starting from first gear forward or in reverse without adding gas, so with 800 rpm i cant start to going smooth, i need to add a little gas (1000 rpm) to start going smooth...i was changed clutch set...fiat punto petrol 60 hp...
@@WMCS LUK repset is putted...can it be some mistake of mechanik due instalation of cluch set, badly installed release bearing on fork or friction disk rotated (engine side rotated to gearbox side)...i have only those small vibration when i try to start slowly only by releasing clutch pedal without gas...maybe it need little time and driving to new clutch set adapt on old flywheel?
I am about to try and do a clutch on my Suzuki splash. However, the bracket connected to the subframe that you remove from the left side of the car. I cannot get off as somebody has snapped the bolt head but there is still enough of the bolt there to hold the bracket in place. Do I need to remove this in order to get the gearbox out or is there just enough space with it still in place?
Unfortunately neither drive shaft will come out now. I have moved the subframe extension out of the way. But both driveshafts are seized. Do you think it would be possible to remove the gearbox with both driveshafts still in the gearbox?
Hi mate, can i ask another question please, do you know what torque the flywheel bolts should be for this car, and the clutch plate bolts? And when taking flywheel off, do you have to use new bolts when putting it back on? Or is it ok to put the old ones back in... My rear main oil seal is leaking so will have to take flywheel off Thx very much.
New always replace flywheel bolts. If you send me the reg I can get you all the correct torque settings. You’ll have to use another thread as I can’t see replies.
So I have further found out the gearboxes are MF60b for the petrol version and MF70c for the diesel version. But I still do not know if it is Aisin design, or Getrag etc, or Suzuki own design etc?
Definitely the best to use for these types of work especially on the spline. As it doesn’t oxidise and won’t allow dry rust to form which is a main cause of premature clutch wear if it binds
Hi, can i ask ur advice please.. Doing this car with a mate today, struggled getting gearbox back in, eventually it felt like it pushed through the clutch disc ok But the bottom of the gearbox is dead flush against the engine block,got the bottom two bolts in that are next to exhaust. but at the top of gearbox theres a gap from engine block...about 1cm or just less.. Does this mean weve not got the input shaft through the clutch disc splines properly.. Or is the gap at the top ok and will close up itself when putting top gearbox bolts in and tightening up?? Thank you..
Can i ask please. When the gearbox is in the car is the rubber cap cover supposed to be over the gearbox Breather Hole or left off so the gearbox can breathe? Thx very much.

Thanks a lot Kevin. Nice to see your videos. I've successfully replaced the clutch of my suzuki splash by myself. I followed this video carefully. 🎉
How long did it take u I'm looking to do mine on the weekend
The best mechanic in UK ! Thanks for sharing ! Respect man !
You bought new jack and new keys the long version for more strength when tightening or loosening, very nice like that.
Yes new jack and new spanners. For very long reach that ratchet cannot get to.
The best mechanic 👨🔧!!! Well done 👍
Used this video to change the clutch, on my pocket-rocket. - Just wanted to say thank you.
An excellent step by step video which helped me replace the clutch in our 2011 Vauxhall Agila 1.2.

little car big job but no problem for you tho👍, like the look of them extra long reach spanners you have kevin got to buy my self some of them buddy👍👍

Hey Kevin. Thanks for the vid. Quick question. What did you spray and clean the fly wheel with? Is it just soapy water? Thanks man.
Thanks for the upload! Im up to the part of separating the gearbox from the engine and ive got it off about half a centimeter but I cant get it off any further. Any tips? Thanks.
Hi , great stuff! can you inform which clean liquid you use to clean the plate ? Thanks
It’s brake cleaner. Or any solvents works just as good.
Would you knkw where I can find a clutch cable to fit, found your video in desperation hoping to find one.
Thankyou in advance
Great job. What oil are your draining at the beginning. Is it gearbox oil? Doesn’t seem much as this is cable clutch?
hi! how do tou know when main chain needs replacement?
Clutch plate didn`t look to bad , bearing looked a bit fucked, is there much adjustment in clutch cable and do you reset it when fitting new clutch.
Yeah, reset, allow some free play at the pedal before the lever moves to stop the clutch dragging.
Not many cars with cable clutches anymore. Great video.
Do you change rear main seals etc if you find one leaking once you've took the box off?
Only Peugeot and a few Far East cars still does cable. But you notice the difference tho. Especially pulling off.
I haven’t really seen a rear main seal leaking as of yet, they don’t usually leak unless there is movement in the crankshaft. What a lot of people mistake the rear main for is the sump seal directly underneath it.

Good m’y friend 👍
You did not remove the starter? In other videos the remove the starter but to do so you have to unbolt the intake manifold.
No need. It’s as seen in the videos and very accurate to all the bolts.
@@WMCS ok thank you. Credits for you to replying so quickly. No need yet for our Nissan pixo (same car) but I can enjoy your videos. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work.
Hi good job mate...whats that grease you use...curious never seen anyone put grease on bell housing before guessing makes it easier to install
It’s red rubber grease. It stops oxidisation of the bolts into the thread.
@@WMCS thanks mate
how did it go getting at the awkward bolt at back of the starter area?😃
Why i have small shaking (vibrating) while starting from first gear forward or in reverse without adding gas, so with 800 rpm i cant start to going smooth, i need to add a little gas (1000 rpm) to start going smooth...i was changed clutch set...fiat punto petrol 60 hp...
Maybe the flywheel is slightly warped. A good clutch kit should have taken up that vibration. What make did you use
@@WMCS LUK repset is putted...can it be some mistake of mechanik due instalation of cluch set, badly installed release bearing on fork or friction disk rotated (engine side rotated to gearbox side)...i have only those small vibration when i try to start slowly only by releasing clutch pedal without gas...maybe it need little time and driving to new clutch set adapt on old flywheel?
Hi mate, reg no. WF14 APK
For the correct torque settings for Flywheel Bolts and Clutch Plate bolts
Thx very much
According to you, what brand could I choose for reliability and endurance? Valeo, Luk,Blue Print, Aisin?
Exedy
the cable clutch usually don't need be changed together with the clutch kit?
Not usually. Some cars has an adjustable cable then that’s advised to get replaced

Who makes the manual gearbox in these cars? Is it Aisin? I've found model number ZV1 and ZV0. But no one says which company designed it.
So I have further found out the gearboxes are MF60b for the petrol version and MF70c for the diesel version. But I still do not know if it is Aisin design, or Getrag etc, or Suzuki own design etc?

It’s a Milwaukee
Is red rubber grease the best grease to use for the clutch spline? Wondered what grease to buy when doing mine?
Definitely the best to use for these types of work especially on the spline. As it doesn’t oxidise and won’t allow dry rust to form which is a main cause of premature clutch wear if it binds
@@WMCS OK wasn't sure if to use moly grease.
You usually get a sachet of grease with a 3 piece kit. I would say Mintex ceratec brake grease would do the job, it's brilliant stuff.

Does anyone know where the crankshaft sensor is located on this car ?
prob bottom of the belts on the otherside of the engine to the gearbox
Would this be similar process for alto?
Similar year 2013?
Alto was a more like a swift. There’s one on the channel.
@@WMCS thank u
what is labour cost approximately?
£200 labour would be fair so £350-£400 all in depending on clutch kit used, they range from £80 to £130 plus £20 for gear oil (+ vat)
