Thanks, followed this and job was straight forward, except getting the gearbox back on. Couldn't do it like you did, I'm impressed! Ended up using a plank and ratchet strap to hoist from above. Thanks for posting!
Fantastic as always dude! Noticed your USPT spline sockets have been holding up so I think that settles what set I’ll be replacing mine with, honestly mate keep up the awesome videos! You kept me sane through my brief furlough period!
Thanks pal. ..,, if you purchase a set get the impact version..,, considering it’s the extended ones. ..,, they are tough ..,, Hope you get back into work soon enough ..,,, what company you’re working for.
I tend to only buy impact gear, with HGV it’s airguns/battery guns 95% of the time 😂 I’ve been back at work for 3 months now, found your UA-cam just before the end of March. I work for Purfleet Commercials LTD in west Thurrock.
Dread Keeper respect to you ..,, tackling them heavy work.., makes what I’m doing like a walk in the park...,, thanks for your feedback..,, appreciate it.
Dude trust me after watching your videos and doing a few fiesta and focus clutch’s for my mates cars are far more complicated! You have 0 room! Atleast with trucks you can literally sit on catwalks across the chassis doing a clutch 😂
Well done. When i was doing mine on the drive, faffed around with engine hoist lifting up and down to get the gearbox in. Not strong enough like you just lift it off the ground by hands

Mr Grumpy....I am a stock car racing fan, and I watch stock car racing at Cowdenbeath racewall raceway , Lochgelly Raceway and Crimond aswell. I've saw "" 152 Mr Grumpy "" on the sides of the racing car, and as this is car video comments I'm wondering are you that racing driver . I love the motor sport and the formula that Mr Grumpy with race number 152 races in ,is my favourite formula. I sometimes travel all over the UK to follow that formula. I'm of course wondering if you are the same driver??. If so you'll have saw me photographing around the repair raceway pits alot ,on my own, with my big rucsac. You'll have saw me at many stock car raceways around the uk Thanks just curious,. I like your racing if it is you. You'll know the stock car race formula I like
nice videos! gives me the courage to do it myself aswell. just a few questions: - which size is the tool at 1:35 to let the oil out of the gearbox? - 2:58 which size to remove the drive shaft (gear box side), is it 10 or 12mm? - 4:28 which size to remove the big screw of the drive shaft? 36mm? - 6:20 which tool to remove this part? - 43:15 which size to refill the oil? and how much oil should be put in? until it flows out? Thanks a lot in advance!
Nicely done Kevin, if you have had the garage in Essex i will have been your costumer, especially now when i have to replace the clutch for my Skoda 1.6, 2011. I wonder how much for the trouble? Roughly, just to get an idea.. Anyway, happy to see at work a capable mechanic like you, keep up the good work 👍👍👍👍👍
i bought some of them US pro ball type swivel UJ from amazon and they are brilliant. cant believe i didnt get them sooner, the old UJ were rubbish, always locked up. do you remove you expensive stuff from your van on a night time or just make sure you have everything insured ? one good reason to be using US pro and premier stuff, it hurts less if its lost or stolen over snap on / mac tools

Hello Kevin, I love to see your video's. It looks so easy. What kind of liquid do you use to clean the flywheel and house? Sometimes you lower the engine for a better acces (like the Mazda 3 - 1.4). Can you do that with leaving the exhaust on it? Thank you!
Hi Theo thanks for the review..,, it’s brake cleaner but any solvent works just as good. I have yet to remove exhaust to access any bolts. Sometimes it’s very close so simple technique is to undo fully as the gearbox is coming out.
Hi, watched a few with you doing the Vw group cars. Curious why you take the drive shaft flanges out of the gear boxes ? This one you only took the drivers side out. But on a 2.0ltr tdi ( passet I think it was) you also took the passenger side out. Cheers and keep up the good work
I only ever take out the back one always ..,, if the flange is left in place it will anchor itself against the back of the flywheel..,, and it can be a downhill struggle from then on otherwise.....
Hi, perfect job like always :) I would be very grateful if you made a video of the clutch replacement in the Toyota Avensis T27 (MK3) 2.0 diesel. Thanks.
@@WMCS 4 hours!!! Wow!!! That's quick!. If it were a mk4 astra, which involves dropping the subframe ( disconnecting steering gear etc, radiator bottom mounts etc ,for sunframe removal)to get the transmission out, might be a bit longer.
Harry the VAG engines as far as I’ve come across start the DMF from 1900cc Unless it’s the S Line .., then they’re pretty much DMF across the board ..,, Now I may be wrong. But it’s what I’ve observed so far.

big hello to serbia....it does the job the conversion kit,.., i wouldnt really recommend it, as most of the time you will get a constant judder pullin away fom stop.. plus a DMF is beter for the gearbox as it buffers the engine torque into the gearbox...
Hi Kevin! I hope that you are doing well, that your business is flourishing and that you are still doing your most instructive videos. 1. If so, can you show in you next video, where these lifting points are (question of Mr Charles Dale, below)? For me who is not a pro, "axle stand" and "subframe" are not immediately evident. 2. When you remount the gear box, the first thing you seem to do with your right hand, is to reach for a bolt on the driver's side of the motor, and tighten that to hold the gear box in place. Is that correct?
2. Yes that’s correct. I always leave the top back bolts in place for that purpose. 1. Jacking point are usually indicated normally by an arrow on the sill each car is different. And axle stand point are usually an overlapping part on the sill easily identified…
Hiya.., excellent question 😃.. A solid flywheel should not be skimmed as any drop in thickness will result in clutch slip as the tolerance from the pressure plate is down to thousand of a mm.., If you look at the clutch plate it has spring built in for the purpose of any slight distortion in the flywheel then the spring in the clutch absorbs that and you don’t feel anything during driving .., The only time I will replace a solid flywheel is if there is a crack on the face of it. ....
SN Grease Monkeys happy to answer based on my personal knowledge and experience only .., The heat mark that you see are friction marks. There is no raised spots.., it won’t be possible for the surface to raise. These flywheel are hardened steel against fibre and other crushed mineral which the clutch plate is made of.,, as an analogy : “A cloth polishing a table ...” Even the mounting of the friction material on the clutch plate are designed to wear and tear on the pressure plate side ... One misconception is a comparison with brake pads against disc ..,
I see thanks for the info, I always thought skimming flywheel is a good thing but never thought about that the thickness of the flywheel will affect the clutch, thanks a lot bro really appreciate it
Nils.., one of the reason is I always replace the oil upon completion of the repair..,, but in no order of relevance if I don’t drain the oil it would spill out the drive shaft port as once the flange comes out it’s an open access for the oil to flow out.
@@WMCS I Was wondering why drain the oil also,as ever experience of doing the job provides the answer.Thank you for the detailed upload great camera work
Judging by this comment your not a tech/mechanic. It takes a lot more then resting a tool on bodywork to leave a scratch. I’ve watched the majority of this dudes videos and have yet to witness him be careless.
Dread Keeper thanks for the input ..,, I did think that comment had a slight negative undertone to it ..,, 🤭✨..,, but nonetheless tried to entertain it ..., appreciate the support
Hefin Ellis that’s more against then on, I refer back to my first response. And also seeing as Milwaukee guns have a protective rubber coat built on to them you’d literally have to bounce the gun off the body work to cause any actual harm.

A solid flywheel should not be skimmed as any drop in thickness will result in clutch slip as the tolerance from the pressure plate is down to thousand of a mm..,
If you look at the clutch plate it has spring built in for the purpose of any slight distortion in the flywheel then the spring in the clutch absorbs that and you don’t feel anything during driving ..,
The only time I will replace a solid flywheel is if there is a crack on the face of it. ....
Won't those high spots (blue marks) on the flywheel caused clutch shudder?
SN Grease Monkeys happy to answer based on my personal knowledge and experience only ..,
The heat mark that you see are friction marks. There is no raised spots.., it won’t be possible for the surface to raise. These flywheel are hardened steel against fibre and other crushed mineral which the clutch plate is made of.,, as an analogy :
“A cloth polishing a table ...”
Even the mounting of the friction material on the clutch plate are designed to wear and tear on the pressure plate side ...
One misconception is a comparison with brake pads against disc ..,
I see thanks for the info, I always thought skimming flywheel is a good thing but never thought about that the thickness of the flywheel will affect the clutch, thanks a lot bro really appreciate it
Hi. I have a golf mk6 1.6tdi my clutch is very heavy to press and it gets worse in traffic and makes squaking noise.
Most likely to be the clutch pressure plate
@@WMCS Should i change the clutch? Thank you
Hola amigo me gusta tu video ,un saludo de madrid ,tu de unde eres ,que pais eres
Stoian..,, I could make out some words in this comment which sounded positive. So thumbs up to you as well.
Why drain the oil from the gearbox?
Nils.., one of the reason is I always replace the oil upon completion of the repair..,, but in no order of relevance if I don’t drain the oil it would spill out the drive shaft port as once the flange comes out it’s an open access for the oil to flow out.
@@WMCS I Was wondering why drain the oil also,as ever experience of doing the job provides the answer.Thank you for the detailed upload great camera work

very skilful, quick, however a little careless for example leave the tool on the body surface can leave a metal scratch
Thanks. But can I ask which body surface that was ... if you point it out in minutes I’ll take your point on board.
Judging by this comment your not a tech/mechanic. It takes a lot more then resting a tool on bodywork to leave a scratch. I’ve watched the majority of this dudes videos and have yet to witness him be careless.
Dread Keeper thanks for the input ..,, I did think that comment had a slight negative undertone to it ..,, 🤭✨..,, but nonetheless tried to entertain it ..., appreciate the support
10:50 you could possibly invest in some wing protection mats
Hefin Ellis that’s more against then on, I refer back to my first response. And also seeing as Milwaukee guns have a protective rubber coat built on to them you’d literally have to bounce the gun off the body work to cause any actual harm.
No dmf ? 👍
I’m think they start from 1.9 in the VAG’s
Are you like a blackops?
