i get well tired after 2-3 hours of work on cars...clutch take much longer and you still had plenty strength left in you..its not a small job and you managed to film it.well done to you rome salute you..
Great video no messing about or no annoying music, just showing you exactly what's involved, some strength too, to be able to lift that gearbox & put the bolts in at the same time😳wow best part of the install easy, great job👍👍👌

@@WMCS My Cousin is a Mechanic, he's worked at Mercede's, Porsche, VW... all of them, over the years.

Laborious but amazingly very accurate undertaking which you managed pretty well Kevin. Thanks for recording it on VW Passat B6. I watched your recordings on B7 and other VW models but this is the first one on B6 which is brilliant. Thank you very much working on my car here Kevin, you helped me out tremendously and car drives so smoothly now. I am glad I have hired you. Keep up good work. Many thanks for you labour and help. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏. Merci.
Have a couple of questions if you don't mind. 1. Will you fit a clutch kit that the customer supplies ? 2. Which in your opinion is better quality, SACHS or LUK, I think the Sachs clutch is slightly more expensive, but I've also been "told" they are better quality ??
Without doubt, the best instructional video I have watched on the tube to date 👍 A job I will surely be taking on with my B6 soon as I have a rattling noise in there somewhere after the first start of the day until the clutch is depressed! Thanks so much Brother for the upload. Wishing u and yours many blessings 👍🇮🇪

hello, I wanted to thank you that without you I would not have dared to change my clutch of my volkswagen passat motor bkp year 2006, thank you very much for your videos, it has helped me to change the clutch without problems, thanks
Thanks to this video I was able to change flywheel, clutch and pressure plate 😃 fantastic video, even bleeding went well! Lots of respect and thanks from Norway 👍
Det ble uten løftebukk, men med god hjelp av en som sto over motorrommet og hjalp til å løfte den av og på. Den girkassa var tung nok, så det er imponerende å se supermann løfte girkasse som om det var en liten startmotor 😅
I've got this exact job to do on my 2008 1.9 b6 when the parts arrive, but I've gone for the single mass conversion instead. Thanks for another fantastic video. Just like you I'm doing it on the driveway, so let's hope I find it as relatively straightforward as you make it look.

Congratulations, mechanic Stig, you do a great job only I saw, maybe Im wrong, you greased a little bit more than normal the primary, everything is amazing and thanks for the video, very motivate, regards by Spain
Right now, im stuck on the bolts on the flywheel on my passat. Lets see tomorrow....the hard part its to put the gearbox back. I love your move with the leg on the jack while hanging the gearbox.
@ Kevin-Albert Williams This is the best video i have seen in my whole UA-cam life: I love that you do not say anything in the video, but only point because you can get so damn confused if you also have to listen to someone who explains what is being done. I'm going to change the clutch and flywheel on my 2007 Passat 2.0 TDI. And this video has really made it easier for me. Really Good Video ....
Nice job,never use cleaner on flywheel because u have grease in springs and i'll always replace crank oil seal.Wish u a good luck u have amazing skills.
@@WMCS I use a old cloth lightly soaked in petrol, i don't spray the cliner because it pours inside and dissolve grease in dmf,just wipe lightly and that's it.
Hi. This is my first time watching one of your videos. Just an FYI. If you use a motorcycle jack, then you can use that to hold the transmission on and off the car. It will save your back. It will also make it pretty easy to put it back in there without tiring. I had to do the clutch on my mr2 twice and that motorcycle jack holds the transmission just perfect since they have that odd shape.
I really liked what you did on this passat I think I'm going to start changing the clutch myself after watching this video you posted on UA-cam Thanks for everything
Very good Kevin !! Warning gear box man !! Heavy and dangerous manipulation More you have muscle and inteligent . And more ...simplicity !! Good worker !! Salutations of argentina !!!
the kit you took off wasn't a self adjusting clutch the one you fitted was and you supposedly need a special fitting kit to fit it properly you just banged it on no problem lol i could do the job but could never put the box back being a weakling by myself good video nice work
Thanks for the review.,, never had any issue using the £10 clutch alignment tool compared to the £1200 alignment tool .,, one thing I’ll point out tho., always tighten down bolts in increments until fully tight. And the adjuster in the clutch plate are there to pick up any slack as the friction plate wears down rather than a fitting adjustment.
I’ve got a 2007 golf with the same lump and gearbox, it’s got 199k on the clock and the clutch pedal travel is more or less none existent but does have good bite tho
Hi just a quick one, I'm taking this job on myself, but I've been told I need the self adjusting clutch tool, although in the video, I see you use only the clutch alignment tool, how necessary is the self adjusting tool? The tool is supposed to give the flywheel the correct preload on to the flywheel I've read. Thank you an kind regards
Top man thank you, hopefully mine goes as smooth as this 🤞🤞 one of the easier ones I'm led to believe. Great work buddy, you do a great job of positioning the camera so we can see exactly what's going on. Keep up the great work !

Hey, was I in the same country, I would definitely let you work on my passat b6 2.0 TDI. Sadly I am not and I am now going from one mechanic to another, spending big bucks for such an old car - still, no help on horizon. Firstly, I had troubles shifting to first and reverse gear with the clutch fully engaged. Tried to lubricate the linkage joints, but no help. After some time, even with the clutch fully engaged, I could not shift out of 1st or reverse gear. The worst came after when the car actually tried to move when I was in 1st or reverse with the clutch fully engaged. Than pretty much all sounded like a faulty clutch (especially the third symptom, since whatever can be happening in the gearbox, the clutch needs to disconnect it from the wheels and car cannot be trying to move). So I got the clutch replaced (including the slave cylinder and flywheel). Couple of minutes of driving and the same symptoms reappeared. After that, I got the master cylinder replaced, seemed pretty logical since the pedal also felt a bit "jumpy" from time to time it did not exactly follow my foot when disengaging the cluch, but moved akwardly slowly and then jumped. It did not help and in addition, the mechanic damaged the wiring so I constanly had a fault reappearing (clutch valve implausible signal). So I went to another mechanic so he can take a look and find the cause. He again, swapped the master cylinder because of the implausible signal, but he could not unveil the real issue. He said that there is no leak or anything similar. Very important point is that after I start the car, the clutch works fine. However, after like 15 minutes of driving, changing gears, it starts acting that way and it gets worse with more driving. Again, after driving in one gear for a longer time or leaving the car over night, it becomes "normal" until I drive it a little and use the clutch. The hydraulic system was bled as well. To me, it sounds like some component (e.g. high pressure hose expands under heat and then becomes normal) or something else that causes loss of presure in the hydraulic system. I am desparate, it already easily costed me a half of the cars worth. Please, any idea?
The pressure plate is worn. Once the metal gets hot the springs gets weaker therefore not fully disengaging the clutch. Replace the whole lock, stock and Barrel
I just go by feel. ., If it’s stretch bolts as soon as it hits hard I get a 90• turn on top. If it’s solid bolts as soon as it hits hard I get a 45• turn on top. Thanks for the support. ✨🍻🍻
You are an iron man ! How you can do this ? I changed my clutch on fiat grande punto following your videos, but when I tryed to lift the gearbox with my body like you .. I lost !! So after I used a pallet truck an some piece of wood to lift the gearbox and I finisched the work but ... it was a hard job ! Top Kevin, I like very much your videos !
Ivan they are a bit heavy some of the boxes. But for a fiat I’d say it’s not so bad. But glad you managed to use some initiative to get it back on. Well done to you ✨✨✨🍻✨🍻✨
Hello Kevin! I have a passat b6 2009. Last summer, I changed its clutch. It was a LUK clutch. Everything was fine. But recently I've noticed that the gear shift gets hard to engage in the first gear. This usually happens at stops. It isn't frequent but it occurs from time to time. What could be the cause?
Good work and clear space! I might say that VW is a bit boring. Some red rubber grease in the joining cup of the drivestaft to avoid leaking? I still wonder how you manage to change the hydraulic jack position to raise the engine... 600 luk points is about a bag of peanuts or something? 😄 It seems you changed the syringe and the pressurized brake cleaner. Thank you very much for the video!
600 points you get just the bag of nuts without the peanuts .. Yes a new syringe. New pressure bottle new jack yet to be used and some replacement tools .,, I believe in re investing in my work tools and equipment before they fail.. Swapping the jack to the gearbox I can’t show on video due to health and safety. .,, I hold the gearbox with one hand and swap the jack with the other hand ..,,
@@WMCS Man, that is awesome! Thank you very much for the classes on mechanics. I thingk that showing your job makes it more valuable. Specially for those who think these things are easy and take little time. Take care! Are you using a mail for PayPal support?
So far the van has been good as gold .., Considering it’s only a 1.5, because I drive very long journeys the likelihood of the engine getting clogged or injectors failing is almost zero to none .., One thing with Piezo injectors they like heat to work efficiently and long range .., I drive on average 2 hours each way. So it’s very unlikely to get clogged up.
I suppose 4 wheels on dynamos can be compared to a digital watch. On the other hand, let’s take a V12 engine. Now that’s like a well ticked Rolex .,, 😉 thanks for viewing our channel. 🍻

Yes it takes a little bit longer than the conventional driveshaft. But nonetheless a great design ✨✨🍻🍻🍻
This must be the most exacting clutch exchange of all those services which he has done. Impressive performance indeed!
Great video, no talking, just showing what you need to do. Excellent.
You make it look so easy bro. U do it like a king. Best video on UA-cam. Thank you!
very clever, "pre-soaking" the bolts before removal, sign of a TRUE mechanic.
✨😁🍻🍻.,, always. I go round two or three times and keep soaking them up.
I’m surprised you noticed that 💫💫
Have a couple of questions if you don't mind.
1. Will you fit a clutch kit that the customer supplies ?
2. Which in your opinion is better quality, SACHS or LUK, I think the Sachs clutch is slightly more expensive, but I've also been "told" they are better quality ??

I love it .,, life wouldn’t be the same otherwise 😁🍻🍻
Great vedeo 👏👍👍 we must said the true this guy is a really good mechanic 👌 this guy is a really fucking good 👍 👏 he knows really about this caind of the work cheers from Portugal 🇵🇹
Thanks for a great feedback and for supporting the channel 🍻🍻
37:40 damnnn you did go into beast mode...
Even in the garage we shout for a second person to help fit it in😅😅
✨🍻😆.,, it wasn’t that bad to be honest. Harder when standing up I suppose.
Thank you for making this video. Helped me very much!!!!
You are brilliant & really Professional
Thank you Mohamed ✨✨
El número 1...👌👌👌... The Number one
Hey, was I in the same country, I would definitely let you work on my passat b6 2.0 TDI. Sadly I am not and I am now going from one mechanic to another, spending big bucks for such an old car - still, no help on horizon.
Firstly, I had troubles shifting to first and reverse gear with the clutch fully engaged. Tried to lubricate the linkage joints, but no help. After some time, even with the clutch fully engaged, I could not shift out of 1st or reverse gear.
The worst came after when the car actually tried to move when I was in 1st or reverse with the clutch fully engaged.
Than pretty much all sounded like a faulty clutch (especially the third symptom, since whatever can be happening in the gearbox, the clutch needs to disconnect it from the wheels and car cannot be trying to move). So I got the clutch replaced (including the slave cylinder and flywheel). Couple of minutes of driving and the same symptoms reappeared.
After that, I got the master cylinder replaced, seemed pretty logical since the pedal also felt a bit "jumpy" from time to time it did not exactly follow my foot when disengaging the cluch, but moved akwardly slowly and then jumped. It did not help and in addition, the mechanic damaged the wiring so I constanly had a fault reappearing (clutch valve implausible signal).
So I went to another mechanic so he can take a look and find the cause. He again, swapped the master cylinder because of the implausible signal, but he could not unveil the real issue. He said that there is no leak or anything similar.
Very important point is that after I start the car, the clutch works fine. However, after like 15 minutes of driving, changing gears, it starts acting that way and it gets worse with more driving. Again, after driving in one gear for a longer time or leaving the car over night, it becomes "normal" until I drive it a little and use the clutch.
The hydraulic system was bled as well. To me, it sounds like some component (e.g. high pressure hose expands under heat and then becomes normal) or something else that causes loss of presure in the hydraulic system.
I am desparate, it already easily costed me a half of the cars worth. Please, any idea?
The pressure plate is worn. Once the metal gets hot the springs gets weaker therefore not fully disengaging the clutch.
Replace the whole lock, stock and Barrel
I just got the whole new kit like a month ago without any change.
Do you torque the flywheel/pressure plate bolts or just know him tight to go with the gun? Great videos 👌🏻👌🏻
I just go by feel. .,
If it’s stretch bolts as soon as it hits hard I get a 90• turn on top.
If it’s solid bolts as soon as it hits hard I get a 45• turn on top.
Thanks for the support. ✨🍻🍻
German are the best .very good job.
dude, you make the ~50kg 02M gearbox look like it's lightweight. For my case I would need something to lift it and move it.
It definitely was a heavy lump .,, I’d say more like 60-70kg.,, so it always has to go in first swing 🍻🍻.,, otherwise it’s trouble in paradise..😁
Last time I did a Mondeo clutch I used an engine crane to get the box back on
Impressive to see that box refitted without lifting gear
You are an iron man ! How you can do this ? I changed my clutch on fiat grande punto following your videos, but when I tryed to lift the gearbox with my body like you .. I lost !! So after I used a pallet truck an some piece of wood to lift the gearbox and I finisched the work but ... it was a hard job ! Top Kevin, I like very much your videos !
Ivan they are a bit heavy some of the boxes. But for a fiat I’d say it’s not so bad. But glad you managed to use some initiative to get it back on. Well done to you ✨✨✨🍻✨🍻✨
Any tips for undoing the flywheel bolts without an impact?
Hello Kevin! I have a passat b6 2009. Last summer, I changed its clutch. It was a LUK clutch. Everything was fine. But recently I've noticed that the gear shift gets hard to engage in the first gear. This usually happens at stops. It isn't frequent but it occurs from time to time. What could be the cause?
Bleed the clutch system again and see how you get on.
@@WMCS Thanks a lot. Does this mean that liquid pressure doesn't operate well?
Great video. One question: Is it necessary to remove the fluid from the gearbox?
this dude is nothing without his milwaukee screw driver haha ... good work ^^
Which one is better, Luk or Sachs !?
What a smooth and clean work.
🍺🍺🍺
Good work and clear space! I might say that VW is a bit boring. Some red rubber grease in the joining cup of the drivestaft to avoid leaking? I still wonder how you manage to change the hydraulic jack position to raise the engine... 600 luk points is about a bag of peanuts or something? 😄 It seems you changed the syringe and the pressurized brake cleaner. Thank you very much for the video!
600 points you get just the bag of nuts without the peanuts ..
Yes a new syringe. New pressure bottle new jack yet to be used and some replacement tools .,, I believe in re investing in my work tools and equipment before they fail..
Swapping the jack to the gearbox I can’t show on video due to health and safety. .,, I hold the gearbox with one hand and swap the jack with the other hand ..,,
@@WMCS Man, that is awesome!
Thank you very much for the classes on mechanics. I thingk that showing your job makes it more valuable. Specially for those who think these things are easy and take little time. Take care! Are you using a mail for PayPal support?
Thanks you help my so much.
Great Job
I come from Bayern Germany
Now time to put it through the paces, WHATS IT GOT STUNTMAN?!
It’s got everything you’d expect from a Passat 🍻✨✨
Hi mate is the slave cylinder on top of the gearbox as mine will not go in to gear but there is still pressure on the clutch pedel its tbe same car
Great video, congratulation Master!
Great job! 👍 It helped me a lot.
Glad to know the video came in handy.
👏👏muy bien. Con pocos recursos. Excelente trabajo
amazing video do you have any material on the older b5.5 version with the inline 1.9 PD engine?
I went to do one about 3 months ago and ended up scrapping the repair.
Purely because it’s a bit tight doing it on deck. On ramp no probs.
@@WMCS Ohh ok so it is very difficult to do on stands because of the in line setup?
Wow! Gotta feeling you've done this before.
Once or twice 😁🍻✨
Profesional und respekt😁
Thanks for the support
Good job, on a side note, how do you find your van, has it been reliable? Have you had the dreaded injector fault?
So far the van has been good as gold ..,
Considering it’s only a 1.5,
because I drive very long journeys the likelihood of the engine getting clogged or injectors failing is almost zero to none ..,
One thing with Piezo injectors they like heat to work efficiently and long range ..,
I drive on average 2 hours each way.
So it’s very unlikely to get clogged up.
Hi, of cuorse you are the best,please i would like know what impact wrench do you use ....
This is pretty much the only reason i'm glad electric cars will be the future.. 10% of current mechanical problems :D
I suppose 4 wheels on dynamos can be compared to a digital watch. On the other hand, let’s take a V12 engine. Now that’s like a well ticked Rolex .,, 😉
thanks for viewing our channel. 🍻
@@WMCS No problem, i enjoy watching the things i'm bad in hahah You don't have to sweat about your job, the end isn't that near as they are prtraying to be , cheers all the way from Croatia ^^
I’m glad there’s some more years left. But it’s definitely looking like electric ⚡️ is gonna be taking over. Big hello to you too. 🍻🍻🍻
Great job. Which engine is that Passat?
PD TDI
@@deninsrmic4165 I meant the engine code. BMP?
@@imperia777 oh, it’s BKP, can’t be BMP as this is 16v.😁
@@deninsrmic4165 I see. thanks
@@imperia777 👍
i have the same car but with 4motion,that„s a lot of work just for a clutch
It’s doable on a weekend if you’re attempting it on your own.
