Thanks Kevin. I've watched this four times now at normal speed and bought all the right tools. I'm going to have a go on my daughter's car at the weekend whilst watching at a 1/4 speed. If I manage to do it in less than 8 hours, I promise I will donate £20. You are a clutch ninja!
Hey Colin .., I’m finally able to respond to comments again.., I got blocked for a while .., anyway great to hear fro you still.., that Mac swivel is a god sent.
Amazing video... brilliant camera locations... makes all of us pretendy mechanics willing to give it a go.... as from other comments... might be good to put a note on video when using liquids / grease, what it is you use... even tho I’m sure most people know.... brake fluid / clutch fluid / red grease and then probably clutch cleaner everywhere else.... Again.... amazing work... subscribed so I don’t miss any more!!!
Is it not necessary to drain the gear oil before removing the transmission on this model? At minute 47, what did you do and where? Thank you very much, great work. Greetings from Spain
The car on video had one most difficult bolt missing already. That bolt cannot be removed if the exhaust pipe is attached to DPF. However it is possible to do the job without removing this bolt. It just need to be undone while gearbox is separating from the engine. There is also no way to use socket key (E14) - so flat 11 will fit instead. In my case previous owner probably changed dual-mass to single-mass flywheel already, or maybe some of them had single mass factory fitted?
Hi there, I think you need to use torque wrench at least for clutch replacement also fly wheel, otherwise its gonna make huge trouble based on my experiences, the clutch disk will tear apart like butter.
That sneaky bot at 2 o clock always gets me on Vauxhall’s! Wondering why is this not coming off! You should also have a tune on when you bench press the gearbox out it’s like your signature move 😂
My mrs clutch needs doing and I was quoted £650 + vat told its a half day at least job my man just done it in real time in under an hour and on the floor. Fair play dude I know what I'm doing next weekend
thanks a lot Kevin to take the time to record the video, it help a lot of people to understand how does it works. On the corsa, there is two, kit, do you check each time before the motor serial number to buy the right kit ? I have searched this number for a while without to find it.
Salut mon ami très bon boulot et excellents vidéo clair et net c'est vraiment un travail fini un type vrai mecano je te remercie Pour la vidéo et un très bon courage dans ta vie*merci 👍🚙🚘
Hi Kevin, good job..one question: when you remove the semiaxis, do you loose the orginal gearbox oil? I'm asking because I don't see it in the movie.. thanks a lot
I've just done my clutch but now I'm struggling to find out where a leak is coming from. It seems to be from drive shaft. Is it possible to leaked from there and do they have a seal inside. It's the only thing that's letting me down now and it's quite hard to tell where it's coming from. I only notice as I seen a rainbow patch on the floor the other day when it was raining.
Hi Kevin you're videos inspired me to attempt a clutch and slave cylinder replacement during lockdown on a mk1 Focus 1.6. After putting everything together and I don't know how you make it look so easy lifting the gearboxes in, I noticed the lines would not fit my Luk concentric slave cylinder, apparently there were two different sizes for my vehicles year. I had the plug machined smaller to fit. When I tried bleeding the clutch I found the pedal very stiff and upon my second attempt I noticed no pressure and under the gearbox a puddle ( not by the bleed nipple) slave must have popped. Any advice on what could have gone wrong as to not make the same mistake? Faulty part? Wrong part supplied?Over over torqued pressure plate? Your advice would be appreciated. I'm not a mechanic but I enjoy my cars. Thanks.
Great video I enjoyed watching it. Can you tell which manufacturer parts do you recommend besides the ones you installed? Here as I can see is LUK flywheel, Valeo and Sachs parts. What do you think about Blueprint parts as they are available in my country?
Im having an issue with this same replacement, The slave cylinder keeps pushing out the seal and leaking from the slave, this is now the third slave giving me the same problem. I first suspected that it was a faulty batch, but the last one was a completely different brand. I hope you have a solution for me. This is on an Opel Corsa CDTi.
@@WMCS thank you, where to position my axle stands ? and what’s the tool called which holds the new clutch together as you put it back together (22:46)
hı , Great video to widen our mind about replacement this part. I wonder what liquid did you use when you extract the censor through the last part of the video? By the way I will try this work as soon as buy the parts and tools. Hi from Turkey

Bonsoir je regarde ton vidéo j ai une question à vs poser le truc tu utilise pour centre ton embreyage il s'appelle comment merci j ai bien aimé ton travail
I have a 1.2 corsa D and I can't seem to bleed the clutch, I did it the same way you did in the video, I tried to bleed it at the start because it would be hard to go into first and reverse. The only way I got it working is by pumping fluid from brake calliper bleed nipple into the slave bleed nipple, basically reverse bleeding. But it worked for a few weeks and then one day I sat in the car and clutch pedal was spongy, do you know anything about this, is it the master or the slave?
@@WMCS okay thank you for that, I’m gonna replace the slave first because I found a leak right under the bell housing and it’s definitely not oil so it’s probably the slave leaking. Thanks for your help. Merry Christmas 🎄🙂
Thanks for the Reply I thought it was, was just making sure I thought it was the same fluid you put in the brake fluid reservoir 😂😂... You're the professional.. Thanks again for the Reply.
@@WMCS thankyou, I have just done a clutch replacement on a 1.3cdti corsa d, but after the change my car won't move. I can put it in gear and such, but when I release the clutch it doesn't move or stall. Would you have any idea on that, I Apreciate your time.
Im guessing the 2007 Vauxhall combo 1.3 is the same as it looks to me as if the subframe needs removing. Watch your videos on a regular basis when the mrs starts whinging lol

Thanks for the support much appreciated
Excellent work and camera angles. I wish you were living near me as I need this done on my corsa.
John Gate1 what’s your area ..,
@@WMCS I'm in Dublin Ireland, a bit too far to travel. All the best.
@@WMCS how much oil did you put in box need to know as going off what you have done and not sure what amount you put in
I have done clutch on my corsa following this video. I manage to do it in 4h. Thank you very much

Fantastic video thanks for sharing
Great video but only if it had audio as you go along for dummies like me lol
Very interesting, as usual. I just miss the yellow gloves 🤭
great clutch review my corsa diesel clutch is got high bitting point just wondered if i need a new one
You could do with some lighting underneath the car next time but well done. Great vid!
I know .., but at the same time this is my daily job rather than a production. Just trying what I can to help other home mechanics out there.
How on earth do you not have a ball joint splitter so much extra effort

Hi Tristan. It is such a shame that Kevin didn't respond to your comment. How did you fix your car finally?
Hey Kevin how many miles did the corsa have on the clock? Was this it’s first replacement clutch do you think?
i always see the hole vid , perfect camerawork ,normaly i skip some vid footes , kevin is the man
Great job!!!

What brand CSC are you using.
@@WMCS I first used a Valeo CSC and then changed to the LUK CSC but im having the same issue with both.
hi there respect.i own a corsa 1.3 70 ps cdti,but unfortunately the dual mass flywheel is broken,can i fit a single mass flywheel kit?
You can but you will notice a lot of judder and a lot more stress on the crankshaft to gearbox
Should the gearbox be emptied when the clutch is changed? I await your clarification, regards.
Great video! Is it much different doing a corsa VXR clutch ?
Exactly the same
@kevin, top video mate.... possibly need to do this
Myself but I am an absolute beginner with working on cars what you reckon ??
Thanks
As long as you have the correct tools and a weekend in my opinion you should be fine. All the relevant info are on the video ✨✨✨💫
@@WMCS thank you, where to position my axle stands ? and what’s the tool called which holds the new clutch together as you put it back together (22:46)

Hi Bircan .. 🇹🇷.. thanks for the review, the only two liquid I use is
WD40
Brake cleaner.
Let us know how you get on.
@@WMCS but İt doesnt like wd40 or cleaner spray. You pull out a socket and fill the hole with a pipe. İ think its brake oil isnt it?
Bircan sorry. Yes it’s Dot4 Clutch fluid.
Hi is it the same process for a 2011 corsa 1.3cdti fitted with a A13DTE engine...Thanks...good work on the cars keep the videos coming...
Exactly the same. ✨✨
@@WMCS Thank you....your tutorial videos are are very helpful.....Please Stay Safe to you and your family....

Why you have to replace flywheel?
How long did the whole process take? Nut to Nut...
About 3 hours ..
Bravo mon frère
Merci
Great video looks hard physical work . How many do you do a week
I like your work, I have the same car and I do mechanics with myself,I want to know with what you clean plz ,thx
It’s just standard solvent. Or brake cleaner.
@@WMCS thx a lot, all the best
super video thank you clear work RESPECT++++++
Thank you.
Does anybody know what the tool is called to hold the clutch together whilst he is fitting it on to the car ??
It’s a clutch alignment tool. ✨✨
Amazing video.
Too bad you didn't change the engine seal and gearbox seal as a preventative measure. Otherwise, good job!
Why did you change flywheel, it looked ok?
Never chance it.
Great job but wouldn’t it been cheaper to change clutch to solid fly wheel on older car
i can’t get the 1st linkage pin out
Молодец, без лишних слов. Какой гайковёрт у тебя?
Opel Corsa D ventilation can only blow on the windshield thanks
Very interesting video!! One question, what is the refill at min 47 ?
It’s gearbox oil. 75w90mtf
How much do u charge for labour. Im doing clutches on the deck aswell and feel like im undercharging.
Bonsoir je regarde ton vidéo j ai une question à vs poser le truc tu utilise pour centre ton embreyage il s'appelle comment merci j ai bien aimé ton travail
Good job!👍
❤ thank you
Whats the liquid hes spraying?
What did you spray on the flywheel?
It’s brake cleaner. But any solvent works just as good
Nice video, enjoy watching!

How much torque did use on the parts
Kevin when you unscrewed the black connector towards the end at 47:00 was that brake fluid or gearbox oil you squirted in the hole?
That was gearbox oil.
Thanks for the Reply I thought it was, was just making sure I thought it was the same fluid you put in the brake fluid reservoir 😂😂... You're the professional.. Thanks again for the Reply.
Top work!
Thankyou.
Bravo merci cordialement
Do you use a torque wrench?
best video
Am I seeing this right you don't need to undo Driveshaft from hub at all?
You are seeing correctly
Make sure to tie it up though, don't leave the cv axle hanging just from the wheel hub.
may i ask what the thick metal gasket is for what you removed after the gearbox. do i need it?
Yes.
@@WMCS thankyou, I have just done a clutch replacement on a 1.3cdti corsa d, but after the change my car won't move. I can put it in gear and such, but when I release the clutch it doesn't move or stall.

When did you put the gear oil in?
Good job man
Appreciate the feedback.
How much to come and do mine
Is 2010 corsa the same?
Exactly the same ...
Great video 👍
Thanks Carl .,,
Brilliant mechanic but should really use new flywheel bolts
What kind of spray is it for cleaning?
It’s only brake cleaner.
next month you can repalace end seal
This isn't same as 2008 one and I've based everything on it found out half way through job 🤒
Good gobe man
good job The best
He bro so how long does an average clutch job take to do once you're all set up 3hours?
I’d say so. Give or take an hour.
Muito bom.
Why did you not do a solid conversion?
I don’t do that kind of repair.
@@WMCS I used the solid conversion on my zafira dti and it was so much cheaper and there is no difference in my opinion.
I know. But I’d rather not be liable for any comebacks as customer’s will say you did it 😁☀️
