A tip when replacing the fuel filter: take the protective caps off the new one before taking the old one off. When you take a line off, cap the connection of the old filter. That way you won't get as drenched in fuel when taking the old filter off :)
When you changed the fuel filter it reminded me of when you changed the corsa filter. It was the first job I ever did on my corsa myself. Since then I've done all the repairs and services myself. I'm now into the 12 Year of owner my little corsa. Thanks James you saved me a fortune.
they were factory filters, except the oil, funny thing they are mileage dependant in the service schedule, it could be the main dealer only did the first three years and it was within miles to not replace, or like many main stealers they couldn't be arsed
As a fellow drive way and self taught 'mechanic' as well as someone who spends a lot of time on his back under a car on jack stands, I would like to say I appreciate you James. Watched your videos for ages but never commented, I guess better late than never :) Top Guy.
hello there, if youre going to reuse the sump plugg and it has a copper washer, just use a torch on it, that will soften up the copper again to make a better seal.
So glad your back with more videos james, I thought you had given up love seeing the videos and rhe honest approach you have showing the good the bad and the ugly so to speak just a genuine youtuber 👏👍
Thanks for encouraging me to do this service, plus spark plugs, on a newly acquired Roomster 1.2 tsi. I hated changing the fuel filter, struggled like hell pulling off the hoses, got petrol in my face. Bad design VW. Cabin filter- I actually put my hand in to find which way the vent blows. Spark plugs - got myself a £40 torque wrench. For pulling off the cables and for pushing them back in, I’m going to get a tool, as when using just ordinary pliers was very clumsy, potentially damaging. Oil change - got 10 litres 5w-40 from Halfords, used 5l to flush. Like the oil filter access. Will definitely consider servicing myself, deep mistrust of local garages. Cheers.
It's a 2011 car. I got a 61 plate registered September 2011 so 6 months newer. They aren't carbon those pollen filters just really manky. Mine had a full Skoda history and don't reckon they changed it. I DIY mine. Same with the fuel filter. Main dealer standards are appalling. DIY so you know it's done right. Good video.
Great video! Just bought myself my first car at 29 years :D Škoda 2010 1.2 Greenline TDI Diesel And I found everything on one place! Thanks for this video man, love it! This will help me a ton with my own car service.
hi dusan93etr have you become a flat earther yet? If not I suggest watch a 13 part series called _What on earth happened_ by Ewaranon to learn that the earth is not a globe. I got it in my about tab.
When replacing the fuel filter, you can pull the fuse/relay to the fuel pump and crank the engine. This will relieve the pressure of the fuel system and you might get a little less drenched in fuel
Having always serviced my cars it's always nice to check others before I do a new car (skoda rapid 1.2 tsi so same engine) just to make sure. Good stuff James, have since watched pretty much all of you videos. Clear simple and easy to follow. Good work
Reminds me of when I changed the pollen filter on my Qashqai. It was rank. Probably hadn't been changed for possibly 7 years when it was last main dealer serviced. If they did it of course, otherwise it would be 10 years old when the car was first built. Great video and always James, we do like a bit of diversity now and then. Keep it up.
@@ronanwood6891 Definitely yes, typical 1.2 TSI-chain-rattle after a cold-start. I hate these engines when we have them in the shop for a service, you have to be quick after you drained the old oil.... ;)
I’ve got the same car but a year older - makes the same noise but worse and sometimes it does it when not cold. Do you think it’s the chain or the tensioner?
Yaaay I am soooo glad a easy to understand beginner level vid for nearly my exact car! (I got the monte carlo, black roof etc) Finally. Sub earned Sir! :-)
20:58 The timing chain seems to be a bit long. Not supposed to take that long for oil pressure to build on the chain tensioner to stretch out. Check when the engine is cold if it rattles for more than 3 seconds after having been sitting. I remember the old video of this bad boy
Louis James No this also happens when the car is serviced every yeah. The chains had a Manufactor defect. If they get too long the car jumps out of timing and eats it's own valves. GREAT SUCESS VW (in borat voice)
Great video james.love the little tip with the pippette to take the oil out of where the filter goes.little details like that is what make your videos great
Nice video again, a little comment to let you know you’ve given me the confidence to work on my own car/s with your videos. I’ll be forever thankful. (not just on about these type of videos either, I’ve now done all sorts thanks to you)
The breather valve's pipe is broken. I suggest you to replace it, otherwise you'll experience bad smell inside the cabin. Timing chain rattles a bit on start-up: this engine is known for having problems with timing chain components. Check if the timing is correct and eventually replace all the components as soon as possible.
You might have the answer i'v been looking for for a long time! Sometimes I got fresh petrol smell in the cabin, couldn't find the source... Can you explain me where can I find that breather valve pipe to check and change it please? Thanks!
love your content. a tip for the fuel filter. to make sure there's no pressure in the system you could have the car running and then pull the fuse for the fuel pump to stop it. that way you shouldn't have pressurised fuel left in the system
That car seems so easy to work on compared to my car. It's like the French went out of their way to make the Megane as awkward as possible. That fuel filter especially is very easy. Nice work all round.
What about checking the brakes, tyre condition and pressures , windscreen fluid level and lubricating door hinges and locks , wiper blades etc. That all comes under a service, surprised you didn’t at least check the plugs. You are so thorough with all your other jobs.
Need to fill the oil filter before installing. Add oil, then push the centre down with something blunt, it'll allow the oil to enter the filter, continue until no more can go in. Also the oil level should be checked when HOT so you've probably overfilled it. Coolant also is low, needs to be full at COLD. Probably needs brake fluid changed, mechatronic oil changed, hinges oiled, tyres rotated; so quite a bit more.
got a ton of work to do too the mrs new astra cabriolet on sat, your videos always get me pshyced up for it. great video james, looking forward to the welding vids you really need to share the secret of staying so clean though. im a mess after one minute haha
Very interesting video, plus, as I’m a Škoda fanatic, it was bonus footage of the lovely Fabia estate!!, I would have been daunted by the prospect of attempting to service my own car before watching this, but it really is quite straightforward, I do like the how to videos, I learn a great deal from them, thank you James.
3:07 - the breather hose. There is a good info about it on Briskoda. When I pulled the air filter housing, the said hose popped and I noticed that it’s been superglued on the engine head. There is supposed to be a grommet and the one way valve slides in. How did you reattach yours? Apparently people don’t notice and a petrol smell results.

Get yourself a decent impact gun, doesn't need to be fancy but defo get a powerful one. Make suspension jobs so much easier and quicker. You'll never struggle with tight nuts again. The big dewalt guns are decent priced and powerful. Got myself a dcf899 and love it, couldn't live without. Using it on my golf mk2 restoration its saved my ass multiple times now
@@ScenicIreland80 Are they decent yeah? I'm after a new one but its hard to find one im gonna be happy with, been using a Makita DTW1002 for the last few years and its been a little beast tbh
@@Usercouldnotbefound ya I couldn't live without the dewalt now. Its something close to 1600nm break away torque and like 900 forward maybe? I think the dewalt is just a facom but in yellow, same internals and half the price. When I was buying one I was told to buy the most powerful you can afford. That way you won't be sorry when you meet a nut you can't loosen. I think that's very true and I love by that when buying tools now
Didnt see if you refitted the one way valve back into the cam cover (attached to the little hose on the airbox lid) They always leak as people dont realise theyve broke
Hi mate not sure if your aware but the crankcase valve has Either snapped or come out of the rocker cover when you lifted the airbox. These are prone for snapping and lets the vapour escape into the engine bay rather than getting sucked into the inlet
And damn that skoda engine bay is dirty, and at 13:18 is sounds like the timing chain has a lot of rattle! I'd love to service my car myself but i can't because i don't have a stamp for my service book!
Service it if you want to, just keep the reciepts for parts. I'd rather buy a car from someone who knows how to mind their car than someone who knows nothing and abuses them through neglect. I tend to keep mine for years so it works for me.
I got my C&G many years ago as a motor mechanic, why do you see people use the old burn dirty oil on oil filter O rings, when you have a 5 litres of new oil just sitting there. Also, why don't people use a measuring jug to pour the fresh oil into the engine. When draining the old oil, remove the oil filler cap and drip stick. Try this next time, drain the old oil, then remove the filler cap and dip stick, and see how much old oil comes out.
Stay cool James ignore the haters I enjoy youre videos. Mazda put the filter in my fuel tank so it's one job I can't do but by all accouts it's okay in there
I bought one of the oil filter tools like yours but havn't used it yet. I'd like to see how good it is under pressure as most of the others I have are crap
Honestly these types are the best ones you can get imo, can get them in tight spaces and they get a right grip without slipping aslong as you set it centre, the more pressure you put on it the tighter it holds to the filter, really good
Its different cabinfilter. Looks like yours are normal cabinfilter and the one from the car is a active coal filter that vag uses. They are black inside.
Could you do a really quick video on jacking a car up to put it on Axel stands? I always just use a jack alone (I know it's dangerous) as I'm always scared of putting the Axel stands in the wrong place and going through the bottom of the car..
hey mate.. really lovely video and your talks are smooth :D - one question, is there difference between this model and the last one regarding the location and parts for service? i have a 2017 and im considering to do myself this job taking your video as reference. many thanks!
3:42 you have got a bad non return valve, may be you should change that, it seems it's broken, common problem for TSI. You should have unplugged it before cover removal. Hope you have fixed it. Surprised how you missed it here.
