After watching literally 30/40 videos looking for torque settings and procedures etc I came across your video and wish I found it first, It is the best on UA-cam, Thank you.
Thank you for your support
Cheers mate, this is by far the best video on this subject on UA-cam. I wasn’t confident enough to do this on my own until I found your video. Nice one Marty
Thank you for your feedback, i really enjoy making these videos and hearing comments like this make me confident that i am doing something wright, thank you again for watching.
Is the same job on the back much different?
Superb video. Best on UA-cam !
Thank you I also have one on rears cheak out my playlist
I was about to tackle this tomorrow but I’m glad I watched your video - looks like I better grab a longer TX bit!
Thank you for a very informative, easy to follow video.
I'm glad my video could help ☺️
He said he’s going to clean the flange off with his wizzer 😂. Great informative video. Really helped a lot
Lucky van!! Thank you for your feedback.
This is a brilliant video thank you very much, I have just finished doing my discs on the van. There is also a great method for getting the disc off the bearing by Bodgit and leggit garage. No hammering required, worked a treat. Thanks agin.
I'm glad my video could help ☺️ thank you for your feedback.
I wasn't going to say anything as for the most part I was learning from you, BUT you did ask for advice at the end LOL so; I worked for a torque tools manufacturing company (Norbar) and they drilled into us that clicking multiple times on the torque wrench actually increases the torque every time due to the function of the torque breaking device - every time it clicks beyond the first one is increasing the torque. They showed us this on a torque measuring device with a normal click style wrench and its interesting to see how much it goes up - its a bit like an impact hammering action. So to get the correct torque you should click it once and trust it or, if you really must, a second click only, no more. And if you are doing a bolt circle best practice is to click once only first time around, and then give each bolt just one second click to double check nothing was seated oddly the first time round.
Cheers for the help you have given me!
Thank you for your feedback, i have never given it a thought but it makes complete sense! Thank you again for this comment i will definitely give this a thought as i use torque wrenches every day.
Just want to say a big thank you for the vid . I’ve just finished doing my front discs and pads . Followed step by step and it was bang on . Only Fock up I had was one of the stretch bolts snapped when removing the disk . £1.50 for a new bolt from the ford garage so happy days . Cheers 👍🏻
Thats brilliant and thank you for your feedback
Just used this video to do mine im up to un doing hub nuts as not got a deep socket till tomorrow.....this video is the best one ive found on doing this many thanks.
Thank you for your feedback I will be putting up a rear disks one soon.
My fronts had completely collapsed. Only done 55k never seen that before in 30 years of driving!
Mine have warped twice since I have had it, given a bad vibration under breaking
@@Martysworkshop twice blimey that's bad should get 100k out of a set of discs....I've gone for Delphi ones ....see how they do....cheers for the tutorials I've just subscribed now
Thank you for your support
BEST VIDEO I have seen for doing a job.
Thank you for your feedback, I'm glad i could help
Good Morning 🙏 🌄 thank you for sharing it God bless you and all your family around you 👍 Take care and have a great day
From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧
Thank you soo much for your kind feedback nick, I'm glad my video could help, 😊
This was a great help, and avoided me starting the job without the torx bit and a long m10 bolt, and saved a lot of head scratching! I needed to use a second bolt to get my disc off on ond side, the side where the disc was fractured thru the cooling fins....! Another tip, gas bottle spanners are 21mm on the smaller end in UK, as I didn't have a 21mm apart from that one :)
Thats good input thank you for your feedback its not a bad job once you get into it. Thank you for watching
What is the length of the M10 bolt?
At last 100mm
a true professional. you should have been a teacher. thankyou
Thank you so much for your kind words I'm glad this helps
Brilliant Description thank you
Thank you for your feedback
Excellent video. Thank you so much. Gonna tackle this now!!
Thank you for your feedback.
Hi Marty, good to see you are still turning wrenches the right way! Think I spotted some of the MAC Tools I sold you years ago, lol.
Keep the vids coming!
Hay nick cheers mate yeah still got most the tools i had off you mate they all going strong. Cheers for the support mate
Very useful video, thanks👍🏼 Please make one for rear discs too😊🙏🏻
I will do thank you for watching
Perfect video followed this today and was super simple thanks 👍
Glad i could help, thank you for the feedback
Good video, had 1 torq socket snapped in the head off bolt torq bolt!! painful Experience could not get the snapped socke6out spent hours and a fortune on drill bits, got there in the end!!
Sounds like a painful experience, glad to hear you sorted it tho, thank you for supporting the channel
Very informative and helpful. Thanks
Thank you for your comment
Great video thanks marty
Glad my video could help.
Top video, best by far. Including socket and spanner sizes 👌🏻
I'm glad it helps thank you for watching
Please DO NOT let the caliper hang by the hydraulic hose!!!! That is a No No NO!!! Thanks for the vid
Thank you for your input.
Great mate
Thank you 👍
Thank you for watching
Great video, very useful! Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback
Nice presentation, cheers
Thank you I'm glad i could help
Thank you Martyn 🙂👍👍👍
I'm glad my video could help. Thank you for your feedback
great vid,i got to sort back and front on my transit before april
Thank you for watching, and the rear brakes are a lot easier to do.
I'm new to this. Where is you description for torque settings? Great video.
If you click on more under the title when the video is playing, thank you for your feedback
Great video mate. Just started doing my disc and pads today. Mines doesn't seem to have a brake pad wear sensor
Also the bolts holding disc to hub are absolutely solid all the way out . Feel as if they are going to snap .
Spray some wd40 or something simular, have they started to turn? If they have work them in and out a few times to get the release oil into the threads. Thank you for watching
@@Martysworkshop
Yeah they have started turning. Will try and spray them in the morning with some pb blaster and work them in and out.
Cheers mate for the advice
Great concise & well explained video 👌 I’m looking to purchase a Transit custom at the moment so came across this while looking for information on their common fault, do you know what the best engine version to go for around the 2014 - 2016.
Watched all add’s so you get your Pennies 👍 “Liked & Subscribed”
Thank you for your support ken, i own a 2013 limited 130 i couldn't be happier with it, i was advised to stay away from the 150 model when i bought mine as they have more problems, but it is the same engine just tuned up more so i can't see a problem. I Guess its more on the driver. Know i do know the newer ad blue engine (new shape) is having a lot of issues so i would stay clear of them. Hope this helps
Massively helpful guide lad but after following it to the dot, one thing I'm wondering about, copper grease for the pads ?
Thank you for your support, yes copper grease on ether end of the pads where they slide is good to stop them sticking in my opinion but some people think it is a bad thing so i left it out of this video
Can you do a video for the rear please? Followed this and worked perfectly tjanks
Hello i recently did the brakes on the rear of this van but unfortunately wasn't able to get any footage to make a video, i will ask about and see if i can do one soon, but just a note it is a lot easier than the front! Thank you for watching
Thanks for reply, do you need a rewind tool for the calliper?
@@chrisduke5922 yes you do
Top video. Quick question, which tool did you use to retract the front caliper pistons? Thanks again.
I just use a large flat head screwdriver
One more question Marty. I see videos where people when pushing the caliper pistons back they open the bleeding nipple which is connected with a little pipe to a plastic container. What do you think about that? I am concerned that opening the bleeding valve you can get air in the sistem. Thanks for your advice.
I have never done it tbh, I just push the pistons back with a screwdriver. I would also be concerned of air getting in the system just to make it easier to push the pistons back.
Great video, I have the same juddering under braking. What causes that juddering? as this will be my 3rd change of discs/pads in 25k miles of gentle driving and braking due to juddering. Tempted to DIY it myself. I have the 9 seater Tourneo.
Mine warped due to being worn thin. Only advice I can give is use a good make disks, I use apec or mintex, most factors offer a cheep or premium brand and garages tend to use the cheep to keep cost down. Thank you for watching.
Great video, thank you
Thank you for watching
Awesome vid buddy 👍
Thank you for your feedback
Great vid Marty , I have a 2014 is this the same set up as yours ; Mick
Yes it is the same, thank you for watching
Great vid. Problem I’m havin is the drive shaft won’t knock through, it’s stuck and I’m welting it! Any tips on solving this? Thanks. Mat
I would try a puller on the flange witch pushes on the shaft. If that fails you may have to remove the complete hub and shaft and put it in a press, i have had to do that before tbh, hope this helps
Great video mate. Some of the torx bolts are knackered on mine but can't seem to find any on the web, any ideas for suppliers?
Not sure but you could replace them with alen head bolts as they shuld be more available. Hope this helps
@@Martysworkshop thanks, didn't think of that. Nothings straightforward is it!!
Not thease days I'm afraid
Hi, Just wondering whether you need to add the 90 degree angle after torquing the bearing to disc bolts as they are not new stretch bolts. I thought the final angle on the bolts is for the stretch. Would a bit of medium strength thread lock be suitable with the 30nm torque on the bolts ? Cheers
Your wrigh as the bolts won't stretch the same the second time but 30nm is nowhere near tight enough for thease hubs a simple rule for stretch bolts is if you can run a nut down the thread with your fingers then they are good to use again. Hope this helps
Top man ! Nice one
Thank you for watching
nice video ,i like the bolt idea i do have a tool ,but you have to remove the drive shaft
Thank you for your feedback, yea i know the tool you mean.
Great video mate very professional.Are you based in Wales as im after a mechanic for my transit.?
Thank you for your feedback, I'm based in gwent.
How tight is the front hub nut, I cant undo it I've bent 2 t bars already, it just wont budge.
It's 500nm so you need to use a 3/4 bar or high torque impact gun,
what's the mm thickness of discs that will require a replacement?
Technical manual says 30mm is the minimum front and 13mm minimum for the rear, thank you for watching
Great walk through video, is it the same on a rear wheel drive?
Thank you craig, the transit customs only come in front wheel drive but the larger transit couriers and previous model transit in rear wheel drive is the same setup to my knowledge but instead of a driveshaft you would have a dummy shaft in its place.
Did you take off the brake fluid cap to help push the piston in
No the cap will vent to no need to take it off. Thank you for your question
Has anyone done the rear disks on this type of transit custom . Is it the same process or do you need any extra tools ?
Its the same job just easyer as you have no driveshaft to fight with, thank you for watching.
Have you done the rear pads and discs yet?
Is it the same kinda thing?
No but when they do need doing i will get on on here, they are actually a lot easier as you only have to remove the centre nut and the hub and disk just pulls off. Thank you for supporting the channel
@@Martysworkshop is it again the same 36mm socket for the hub nut on the rear? Thanks for your help!
Im not sure to me honest but you shuld be able to pop the hub cap off to see.
@@Martysworkshop cool thanks. Got the job on Saturday front and rear discs and pads so i will see!
Hi, where’s the best place to get the bolt. No where has that size
Sorry that one is stainless here is a pack of 10 for less www.ebay.co.uk/itm/METRIC-HEX-HEAD-HIGH-TENSILE-SET-SCREWS-M10-x-140MM-1-5P-8-8-GRADE-ZINC-QTY-5-/183138188373?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0
@@Martysworkshop thank you
Glad i could help
Where are you based?
Hello Adrian, I'm based in South wales.
@@Martysworkshop I live in Llanelli how much dose it cost to put new front disks on my ford transit custom 2016 ?
I would know sorry I can do them in about 2 hours, but I don't work for a retail garage, sorry
Yeah that warp rotor tire shake will wake you up.....
Yeah it was a bit sketchy to say the least.
All i could see was the caliper hanging by the flexi hose!
Thank you for your feedback
Perfect video!
Thank you for your feedback 😊
