@TransformotionVR Your most welcome. I enjoy both Andy and Liam. It's like I'm watching my mates in a unit fixing up car's and we've never met lol. Keep up the good work fellas 😉✌️
The sense of achievement you get from fixing your own stuff is the best thing about it not to mention the money you'll save from it too! Thanks mate im glad you enjoyed it
Thanks mate, the drawing is the old school way of doing it but it's definitely right where as Google searches could be off a different engine or may not have added extras like aircon
Things like alternators and water pumps can be scary jobs to ordinary folk because no-one wants to mess it up and make things worse, so seeing a professional doing it and having it explained in simple terms by someone who could do these with their eyes shut is always great. The DIY belt diagram is a great tip as well.
Thanks mate! I'm glad you liked it and hope it saves you some money in the future, I dont mind sharing my knowledge to help others, old school belt diagram, it never fails 😉
Good to see some basic car repairs if this gets some to do there own and gain more about how there car works this can go along way to help prevent some break downs hopefully keep up the good work
Thanks mate, thats the plan, there's no better sense of achievement when you actually fix somthing of your own when you didn't believe you could and saving yourself a pocket full of money 😉
One of my favourite parts was the diagnostics and explanation to why you concluded the alternator needed to be replaced. Would like to see the same process again for other faults so share the wealth of knowledge with the audience. Top work, cheers
Always good to see a how to video invaluable information for anyone wanting to attempt a job but not knowing where to start, keep up the great work chaps!
Thanks mate, ermmm I'll say it was you if it makes you feel better ha ha 😉 I think high peaks editor ste said its one of them things that'll always be searched for, and it help people out.
Thats what we hope people will do but in the early days if we put a non appealing video out we started loosing subscribers, id rather be told they didn't like it, we'll see how it goes 😉 thanks
I see Liam is a naughty nugget and he left you alone to do all the work 😂 Oh Andy, I can learn that and then impress men with my knowledge and skills 👀 Nice video as always 👍🏻
Yeah he was ha ha he had work to do at his house....I think his missus grounded him and made him do the chores 🤣🤣 I hope some of this work comes in handy and you can show the guys what to do ha ha 😂
Hi, tbh liam was just busy that day with work at home, we're having to do this extra recording when we can squeeze it in so this was on a Saturday morning, glad you still enjoyed it tho 😊
"How To" Video's are what the "Tube" is all about. Watch, Listen and Apply. Do something with a Peugeot 2008. Except slag it off, for whatever reason. Cheers. 👍👍
Ha ha ha us slag a Peugeot off....noooo ha ha 😂 yeah I suppose if I'm unsure how to do a job on somthing I take a cheeky little on the tube for a little help from time to time
As part of your diagnosis was the noise certain parts where making a video after the repair showing how it should sound might be helpful, (and I think I might have bunged a new belt on for me sis ? ) Otherwise, keep them coming, something that's always daunted me (coming from a lifelong motorcyclist) is working on a cars steering, fault diagnosis, repair and readjustment has always given me the collywobbles. Cheers.
Yeah I did notice that myself, the editor knows now so we should be good in the next one, you'll just have to take my word for it it was fine after ha ha 😂 😉 I've worked on bikes and cars since I was a teenager, id love to do a bike build on here one day
Can someone explain to me why I spend my days work with and on cars and yet spend my evening watching other people working with and on cars??? Oh yeah! I’m a car nerd 🤓🤣😂 solid video lads 👍🏻
Great video. You have explained things very simply, and I would like you to make more. Im going to keep GSF Car Parts for when i need new bits. Very simple website and good value for money. Learnt two new things today. You did great considering there was not much room for manoeuvre.
They're coming soon mate, we had a lil break off it and bought the civic, and had some normal work to do for dan, we'll be back on it soon I promise ha ha 😂
@@TransformotionVR glad it’s all positive it’s certainly worth putting them out there for us all whenever you think of doing I do like to watch stuff like that along with your usual rebuilds it’s all good
No not yet, all depends on what funds are available at that time, if we sold a car or two personally I'd love to do a mustang GT but at this minute in time that's a no go ha ha any suggestions?
My only suggestion would be to do a before and after shot. You spent the time to show us a clip of the sound the car made when it had the faulty tensioner and alternator but didn't show us another clip of the the car running properly following the repair. I think if you did that, it would have bookended the video quite well. Still a good video though. You kept it very simple and easy to understand. Even if some of us have done minor repairs like this before, it's always good to watch and maybe learn something new. Keep it up!
100% mate, I did think that myself but I mustn't have got any footage of it running afterwards ha ha we're still learning this youtube stuff ourselves ha ha but thanks for the feedback mate, that would have ended it nicely
Would it have been a good idea to replace the aux belt? At least in my head a fairly low cost part, but one that could be prone to wear overtime and as you have to take it off and put it back on anyway?
I get where you're coming from but if it ain't broke dont fix it and all that ha ha nah if it looked worn when I took it off I would have but it looked fine and its easy enough to get to anyway 👍
Fascinating. I only have one problem, I have no idea what an Alternator is or does. If you are going to do more of these videos don't just assume all people watching know what you are talking about.
Good point mate, I did assume ha ha the alternator is like a little generator, it spins around and generates power to be put back into the battery so the battery doesn't die, its driven by an auxiliary belt that is driven from the crankshaft when the engine is running, some of these newer alternators charge on demand so need a little clutch in the pulley and that's what I think had gone on this car causing that horrendous noise. Hope that helps 🙏 🙂
A how to guide on MIG welding would be good. I've changed brakes, suspension, propshafts an engine and a couple of gearboxes. But welding holds me back from doing restoration work on my dying supra. (sills are gubbed)
Ahhhh supra man!! Are you still not ready to sell it?? Ive been waiting for you to pop up saying its for sale ha ha half the trouble with welding on cars is where it needs welding, welding above you is not brilliant ha ha and the metal is thin so blows holes everywhere, ill see what we can do tho for you as I think that'd make a good video too
How to videos are a great idea, particularly from guys like yourselves that know what they are doing opposed to some c**t that works in aldi changing the wipers on his astra in his drive. Try find a golf/A3/leon that needs a new thermostat and do a video on that haha. I have just went a full winter with no heating and I am determined to fix it myself.
Ha ha 😂 thanks mate, the chances of finding that exact problem are slim but if we find one we'll do it and let you know ha ha 😂 get it done mate the sense of achievement will be great once you sort it out 😉
Take your sister to Matt at Highpeak Autos, quote TVR20 and get 20% off any car 🤣 Seriously though great 'how to' which would probably help the DIY'er. I'd just take my car to the dealer to be honest (as my car is newer), so I didn't actually take an info in - but it was good to hear Andy's voice as always 😂 Surprised there's no Pirelli calendar by the way 🤣 Keep up the good work 😁 🖖 Only 400 more for your 20k!! 😁
Ha ha where did you get that discount code from ha ha I hope these videos help a few people, I was always one of them who'd have a go myself before paying someone, we do have 1 autosmart calender but they're not allowed the good ones anymore.....sexism and all tha🤨🤔😆 yeah I think its about 334 to go, thanks for helping towards that 😀
Nice video... But try to give more guidance I bet it's difficult with the cameras but changing the position of the camera we lose the sense of the position of the parts
Yeah we got onto that when it went live, I dont know if the footage was missing or the editor just missed it, not his fault tho he's not a mechanic...yet ha ha
If you put in the video title and hat car it is, then it would potentially reach a bigger audience. People searching specifically for that car would find and also could lead to more subscribers.
Did mine last week on my mk4 mondeo. Got a refurbished one for £108. A few rapped knuckles and a bitbif cursing and the stupid thing came out without removing anything else
Teach people basic spanner jobs can't be a bad thing. I'm all for it. Here for you guy's and whatever you post. 👊
Nice one mate, we really appreciate the support 👍
@TransformotionVR Your most welcome. I enjoy both Andy and Liam. It's like I'm watching my mates in a unit fixing up car's and we've never met lol. Keep up the good work fellas 😉✌️
Ha ha thats brilliant mate, im glad we come across in a good friendly way 😀
Great idea guys, not seen any other tubers doing this type of work... not everyone can afford to get things done at the mechanics shop... 👏👍
The sense of achievement you get from fixing your own stuff is the best thing about it not to mention the money you'll save from it too! Thanks mate im glad you enjoyed it
Good idea, even if you've got a different car, you can always relate it to your videos. Good tip doing the drawing.
Thanks mate, the drawing is the old school way of doing it but it's definitely right where as Google searches could be off a different engine or may not have added extras like aircon

Nice one mate, im glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for supporting the channel 🙌
Excellent in explaining the process and showing how to break down the method in the easiest possible way. Please continue with this in further areas
How to videos are good for know nothings like me, always helpful.
Thanks mate, im glad you liked it 👍
I like it, show the basics like doing a full service
I think we've recorded a service, I cant remember what on but I think we have ha ha thanks for your input man 👍 😀
Very well explained - thumbs up for your SAFFA narrator
Ha ha nice one mate, he'll appreciate that!
Great idea showing how to do jobs
Easy to follow and learn from
Look forward to the next video
Nice one mate, we weren't sure how these would go down but the comments are really positive 👍
Always good to see a how to video invaluable information for anyone wanting to attempt a job but not knowing where to start, keep up the great work chaps!
Nice one buddy we appreciate that 👍
Spot on, really different and informative. Was this from my suggestion? Chuffed if it was, not often I have a good idea 😂
Thanks mate, ermmm I'll say it was you if it makes you feel better ha ha 😉 I think high peaks editor ste said its one of them things that'll always be searched for, and it help people out.
It might have helped to see the car running okay after the work you did. Just a thought.
Not something I’ll ever do, but still enjoyed watching, good informative video lads 👍🏼
Nice one man! Ahh get your hands dirty and give it a go ha ha 😂
How to replace parts video's is a great idea, as there are not many videos about that are very clear and include good instructions on how to do it 👍
Thanks, not bad for a first attempt, we've seen a couple of bits where we can improve but it's still a big learning curve
A good watch guys, very helpful
Nice one mate! I hope a few people take somthing from these and have a go 😉
Hi lads really enjoyed the video was very helpful for a home mechanic / DIY really hope you do more videos like this
Thanks mate, im glad you liked it, yeah there will be more to come, not just on fixing cars too
Never a bad thing being shown how to do a job. If people don't like this type of video, don't watch and just wait for the builds to come round.
Thats what we hope people will do but in the early days if we put a non appealing video out we started loosing subscribers, id rather be told they didn't like it, we'll see how it goes 😉 thanks
@TransformotionVR you're a bit more of an established channel now. Hopefully you'll be sound.
Thanks man! Yeah I hope it goes down well as a little mid week video as we plan on getting 2 videos out a week if we can
@@TransformotionVRonly an absolute turboblurt would whinge about bonus content. So, obviously, that will happen. As this is youtube.
Ha ha turboblurt 🤣 well you know the saying 'pleasing everyone is impossible.... but pissing everyone off is easy' ha ha 😂
I see Liam is a naughty nugget and he left you alone to do all the work 😂 Oh Andy, I can learn that and then impress men with my knowledge and skills 👀 Nice video as always 👍🏻
Yeah he was ha ha he had work to do at his house....I think his missus grounded him and made him do the chores 🤣🤣 I hope some of this work comes in handy and you can show the guys what to do ha ha 😂
Informative and useful. Enjoyable as always.
Thanks mate, we appreciate that 👍
Hi
Not as good as your double act videos but..,
I’ll still watching
Respect man 👍
Hi, tbh liam was just busy that day with work at home, we're having to do this extra recording when we can squeeze it in so this was on a Saturday morning, glad you still enjoyed it tho 😊
Enjoyed the video. Excellent idea, more videos please
Thank you! We will do, thank you for watchin 🙏

What’s the craic with matts range? Love them vids 👌
They're coming soon mate, we had a lil break off it and bought the civic, and had some normal work to do for dan, we'll be back on it soon I promise ha ha 😂
Nice add on to your usual videos,hopefully more viewers will also like it and perhaps learn something too 🙂👍
Thanks mate, yeah let's hope so! 😁 nearly at 20k subs now too 🥳
@@TransformotionVR well deserved 👏
💪thank you🫶
I like this style of video, please do more
Thank you, we will do 😉
Something different I like these type of videos 👍helps people out if they are going to be attempting these type of jobs
Nice one! We wasn't sure if people would like them but it all been positive up to now
@@TransformotionVR glad it’s all positive it’s certainly worth putting them out there for us all whenever you think of doing I do like to watch stuff like that along with your usual rebuilds it’s all good
We need to get matts range rover done and buy another build soon
@@TransformotionVR yeah else he will be complaining 😆any ideas on another build yet other than the 330
No not yet, all depends on what funds are available at that time, if we sold a car or two personally I'd love to do a mustang GT but at this minute in time that's a no go ha ha any suggestions?
Brilliant video!!! Best thing you could do now is just get a BMW 430i gran coupe and show me how to do everything to it myself 😂
Ha ha 😂 yeah we've got one in actually....we're doing everything to it too! 😄 ha ha
@@TransformotionVR needs a video series!!! 👍

my mondeo headlights kept going bright then dim in garage on sunday ,i realised it was my eyes closing after 10 pints .
Ha ha haaa 😂😂😂 I know how to fix that issue too! Sleep ha ha good comment that mate ha ha it made me laugh!
Like it , if folks object maybe create a new channel for this!
Thank you, I dont want to make multiple channels if it can be helped, we'll see how it goes ha ha

It's easy enough to change if it goes

It's our first one of these and I'm definitely not a teacher, but we'll bare that in mind on the next ones
Would have been nice to see you start the vehicle up after completing the job
Yeah we got onto that when it went live, I dont know if the footage was missing or the editor just missed it, not his fault tho he's not a mechanic...yet ha ha
You might need to fit a new alternator if you put the battery terminals on the wrong poles… ask me how I know 😖
Ha ha haaaa you didn't did you?? 🤣

Ha ha its hard enough trying to keep stes (high peak editor) on the road ha ha and he's buying another
Thats because they're boss 😂😂😂 .
Ha ha his mechanics bill is more than his insurance, tax and mot each year ha ha

Did mine last week on my mk4 mondeo. Got a refurbished one for £108. A few rapped knuckles and a bitbif cursing and the stupid thing came out without removing anything else
Good job mate, half of them are that packed in these days you've got to remove the engine mount
@@TransformotionVR it would have been easier to remove the engine moune, but I found a gap and yanked it through lol
Ha ha thats the way to do it 😄
Like it a lot, agree GSF great. What voice you using, don't like it. Sounds like a south african
Yeah he's our south african editor 😉
