    James, you’re becoming a very effective how-to instructor. Very well done.

      I broke a clutch just like in the video because you didn't use a degreasing system, adjust the pressure plate. HOW YOU MOUNTED IS WRONG, I DID AS YOU WERE AND I BROKE NEW CLUTCH IT ONLY WORKED FOR 20,000 KM, NOW I NEED A NEW ONE

      Absolutely top work sir. Well impressive, you voice over is calm, methodical and contextual. Keep being you when you're chatting away, it's re-assuring to a viewer what you're explaining and why. Maybe a little division into chapters would help those of us not as brave as yourself so we can divide and conquer into weather dependent chunks with the parts / tools / and time you needed / faced during your efforts. There's plenty of us enjoying your thought process ;-)

    What a cliffhanger!!!
    Superb video and channel.
    Took me an hour to refit my gearbox too, that was after watching another guy on UA-cam do it in 60 seconds.

    Great job! Little tip...Mark each nut/bolt with a bit of tipex when you’ve torqued them up so can easily spot any you may have missed.

    'Getriebe' means gearbox in German language, so getriebeseite is: gearbox side. ( thanks from a Dutch viewer for another great video!)

    Just a tip to make the gearbox fit easier. Place a couple lengths of threaded rod into the engine gear box bolt holes and use these to slide the gearbox into position then once you’ve got a couple bolts in then replace the threaded rod with the remaining bolts. Saves a lot of aggro.

  • @mark4d148

    James you tease.
    What a star.
    All that work on your drive and giving us a lot of information as well, unlike other UA-camrs who cut and skip to end and show nothing.
    Keep going. Don't stop.
    Stay safe.

    James, I could've done with that scissor lift when I changed the clutch on a 2007 VW Beetle. I ended up borrowing an engine crane form my local garage. Mating the gearbox to the engine was like docking with the ISS. Fortunately, I didn't have a subframe to contend with unlike the MK4 Golf on which the Beetle is based.
