I was unable to film the replacement of the fuel filter due to the location. It’s high up at the back of the engine

Sorry I no longer have the torque settings for this job. You may be able to find them online or call your local dealer and they may help you

Yeah always handy to keep a few bits in the car. Also had to wait a few days for the part to be in stock. Think every dealer should keep a couple as think it may be quite a common issue 🤣

Thankyou for the comment. I’m glad it helped to sort the issue 👍

You may be able to do it in place but I just thought it would be easier to take it off the car

My honest answer is I don’t know. As I haven’t done that job before. Sorry I couldn’t help

I’m not sure what gearbox was in it

Yes it's an iB5 gearbox. Seems to have the same ratios as the Ford Fiesta to on the MK2 compared to the MK1.

Glad it was helpful!

No problem. I’m glad you liked the video 👍

Hello. I’m not sure on the part numbers. If you give your local dealership or parts store they should be able to help you

No damage should have been caused but it’s always best to get issues fixed as soon as possible 👍

The coolant concentration was all okay and not contaminated so no need to replace 👍

Sorry I didn’t include in the video. I will keep it in mind for future videos 👍

Each car could be different due to different engine codes so best to check with local part stores 👍

​@@greasemonkey6159which viscosity? 5W30??

On this car the brake warning reset automatically as they have wear sensors

Yeah not the easiest of jobs to do on a driveway

Not sure on the exact book time but took me just over an hour to do one side 👍

I asked this question to the parts store that I purchased the parts from and they said that this was the correct kit for the engine. But it’s always a good idea to double check 👍

Thankyou for the constructive criticism. I will try and do the videos a different way in the future

Was the video helpful though ?

There is a bleed nipple on the clutch feed line near the gearbox and I got someone to pump the clutch to bleed it

@@greasemonkey6159 can you please explain properly

About 4 hours with filming it. I got quoted £650 for the job

@@greasemonkey6159 how lucky you are to live in UK. Here in Australia any thing to do with VW we get rip off big time.

Thankyou. I ordered the locking tools off of eBay and they were perfect. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185937729928?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Dnm2AaYhQpK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

That’s super-helpful; thanks for taking the time to share 👍

Yeah you should be able to use a pry bar or a screwdriver when the brake pad Carrier is still fitted

Hi, hope the video helped. I didn’t have to reprogram the unit

Me neither, I only had to clear the error codes with an scanner

I did have to use a ratchet strap on one side but the one I did wasn’t too bad

Glad you liked it!

I have thought about it but would take more time and confidence 😂

Thankyou. I didn’t change the studs as they were okay. I used loctite. And ideally you should replace the stretch bolts but they are okay to reuse, just be careful when tightening them as they can snap. Hope all goes well when you have a go

doing my timing belt at the minute and I was thinking I just leave the tensioner stud alone but went I took nut off tensioner stud was loose 😳 took stud off by hand 😮 . and there was no aluminum filings coming out with stud anyway I put new stud in and make sure it coming out straight and bit of loctite . timing belt was last done 100.000miles ago this probably be last belt as be due again 300.000 miles . water pump was leaking very very tiny might put small bit sealant on new one going in morning

@@greasemonkey6159 Which loctite do you use. Have looked and there's quite a few different numbers/codes, blue or red?

I used the blue one

Thanks!

Yeah some can be a right pain. Thanks for the good tip though. I’ll give that a go if I have any issues in the future

Thanks gonna give it a go, spent about 6 hours trying to get mine back in on my Polo.

You can find gearbox’s at scrap yards or online for example eBay

Most sump bolts are 20-35 NM. As far as I’m aware

You avoided the fuel filter then!🙈

I did replace fuel filter but because of its location couldn’t really film it as there was just enough room to replace it 😂😂

Thank you!

2003

It’s located at the back of the engine. It’s a bit tricky as there isn’t a lot of space. It’s held in place by I think 3 10mm nuts and has a mulitiplug on the top. Hope it all goes okay

Thank you for the great video. I’m also trying to tackle the fuel filter on my fathers HR-V, but my question is, how did you prime the system with fuel? The CR-V has a primer pump, the HR-V 1.6 d-tec does not. Does the engine have some sort of primer pump build in? In other words, does it start on it’s own or do you somehow have to manually suck the fuel in to the system prior to starting the engine? Thank you in advance and cheers 😊

I couldn’t seem to find a primer pump so all I did was once all the service was complete. I turned on the ignition so that the fuel pump would operate and then turned the ignition back off. I did this about 20 times and then started the car and it was all okay.

Sorry, unfortunately I don’t have a video about bleeding the brakes

👍

I’m glad the video has helped. Unfortunately I do not have a workshop manual.
