    Merry Christmas you too. Couple of questions: how much time does it take to refurbish all of them?

      To do both fronts it takes me approximately a day but that was only because it was a hot summers day so the paint dries fast. Although I do like to leave the calipers a couple days after for the paint to cure / harden.
      The time is mostly taken up waiting on paint to dry.

      And what kind of paint is that here: 6:37
      I am thinking, do you think it good idea spray the paint color or use brush?

      @@petrholusa5855 spraying is a better finish but more expensive than brush paint. As long as you use a high temperature paint it will be fine

    Hi.well we been lucky with our t4 caravelle we hope.had a noise at front of van a sort of clicking noise appeared about month ago that for faster with speed.was goin to go to mechanic after checking behind wheel then it stopped.we did cornwall ,twice ,the lakes and wales just and on way home noise appeared again.so thought best go Kwikfit in Chester as was working near there.the noise was more pronounce now.was thinking drive shaft now as noise stopped when pressed clutch pedal down coasting then .kwikfit said lucky we didn’t breakdown and shouldn’t drive no more as was loose bolt with one shaft about to drop out .said we need both drive shafts and intermediate shaft doing .thinks the :middle shaft causing noise and will need remounting he says.i wouldn’t attempt that.its 900£ all in.well we used van most days for work and holidays too ,on 282000 miles engine is still strong.have receipts for new clutch and I had cam belt kit pump and seals done plus tuned up by vw trained guy .he is 60£ an hour but knows t4s well.didnt want move it from kwikfit so let them sort it.all gears ok and clutch when stopped so hopefully no damage to gearbox .i had unload my fridge contents in van as solar panels won’t get lot of light in garage 😂

      steve mcgowan £900 to replace 2 driveshafts? Or the clutch as well?

    • @stevemcgowan3017
      @stevemcgowan3017 4 роки тому

      AMS Vauxhall clutch ok when stopped how many driveshafts and intermediate shafts are there ?

    • @AMSVauxhall
      @AMSVauxhall  4 роки тому

      steve mcgowan there are 2 shafts is and the intermediate shaft is just a part from gearbox to driveshaft with a mount that bolts to the engine block and I would doubt that would be a fault. The shafts are approx £70 each
