I’ve been a mechanic for 40yrs and I truly admire your working in all weathers , been there myself and still servicing .Kevin you have a special gift good luck in the future. Billy
Do this kind of work only when I have to, brutally hard work, knees, back, arms, hands... good going Kevin! Stay strong, very few of you guys left in the world. -U.S.A.
Just did this on a 2006 CRV CDTI, thank goodness Honda wasnt stupid enough to put top starter bolt through gearbox, otherwise it would have been radiator off job. You're a legend Kev, keep up the good work!
Bonjour Kevin, merci pour cette vidéo, c'est grâce à toi que j'ai pu réaliser en environ 10h-12h l'embrayage de ma civic 2.2, et c'était une première pour moi. Le travail est juste épuisant, j'ai été aide pour engager la boîte de vitesse tellement elle était lourde. En tout cas bravo à toi et encore merci pour ton aide ! Matthieu
I served in the Army doing this in the field for 17 years as a REME Vehicle Mechanic on everything from Land Rovers all the way up to biggest Trucks, Tanks, Armour, Generators and Plant. Bench pressing those Gearboxes into place takes strength, I’m by no means the smallest of lads, strength and size always being the key and I’ve done a few jobs like this in my time. Total respect to Kevin his work ethic and quality of job is to be admired. Keep it up mate
The Civic was a bit of a marathon, I'm 74 and did this sort of thing in the70's and 80's and have the bad back to prove it. Take care mate it will catch up with you.
Tom it’s great to hear from a fellow mechanic. We as a generation are no match for the boys working in coal mines and the trenches of both world wars. We have got it good. Everyone is quick to be Wooly wrapped.
Bonjour Williams, je suis français et j'adore votre vidéo, on vois que vous êtes un grand professionnel! Dommage qu'il n'existe pas de gens comme vous en France
That’s correct. This is what I mean comparing working on European cars ie VAG’s over Far East cars. Too many little brackets and over engineered unnecessary clips and retainers
@@WMCS The last VAG I worked on was ridiculously over-complicated. To get the filter for cabin air out of most Far East cars you push in the sides of the glove box, pull out the box, unclip a cover, and pull out the filter. For VW New Beetle, I had to push out parts of the dashboard under the windshield, to get access to about 18 threaded fasters, then remove the bracket for the filter from its place under the dash, then remove the filter from the bracket. Some of the threaded fasteners were very close to the windshield. Whatever kind of head they had, maybe it was a Torx, there was little room to access it and turn it. Presence of windshield directly above the fastener heads reduced turning radius of the wrench handle. I wouldn't be surprised if the VW service literature suggested removing the windshield in order to access the cabin filter. If that wasn't bad enough, the air duct under the filter was lined - on the _inside_ - with urethane foam. Why anyone would design an air duct to have insulation on the inside surface where the hot or cold air contacts it, is beyond my understanding. And on an 18-year old car - it had become friable. As soon as I turned on the fan after replacing the old, blocked air filter with a good filter - the fan start blowing little pieces of urethane foam into the cabin.
Next time I’m down the local garage and they are giving me a hundred reasons they can’t do something and how difficult everything is, I’ll point them to this guy. Absolute respect. Get’s on, does the job, no excuses.
That is true. Everytime I need to get done some bigger job, first they say “well on these that is little bit complicated”. Though that is only talk to justify price 😅
I am also a Mechanic from Ireland, 25 years experience,keep up the great work,love all the vids,I use Milwaukee tools too and the battery just falls apart after a few months,I noticed you have tape on yours 😊, 🤛👍🍺
Paul what a nightmare with the tiny battery screws. I had to super glue it. Then super glue a rubber band around it then duct tape. Those little iPhone screws just don’t cut it does it. Thanks for the thumbs up 🍻🍻🍻

@@WMCS I struggled like hell getting the gearbox back on and had to call a friend for back up. Once he was able to see the angle was very slightly off, it slipped on easy. Like I said, never again though. Not enough room for my liking.
I’m not a mechanic but having done clutches in this way in my own warm garage and even then it’s not much fun. Hats off to people who would do this in the cold, outside then also have to travel to do it. That’s graft
G'day mate and greetings from Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺, I think your a marvel how you put new clutches in and in the open and in all sorts of weather and on your back. What you do is great I've watched you do a few so I have decided to subscribe thanks for filming it and I look to the next instalment, kind regards John
Total admiration for this man and work he does.. But, 36:50 is just putting toxins into environment for no reason... I did a clutch in a jeep on the ground in snow when I was 26.... I give this man the Lifetime Achievement award for what he does as its Skilled, Hard, and requires a certain man to do!
@@WMCS I'm just the same mate, and im in a comfortable garage lol. I take my hat off too you buddy, I done the AA for 12 years, It's not easy mechanicing outside. All good here cheers mate, battling on. You keeping safe? You on Instagram mate?
Hello, I am from Germany. Find your videos great and educational. Whenever I have to do a clutch, I always watch your videos. Please go ahead. Thank you!
Amazing man ! Good on you mate , your attention to detail is perfect ! Everything is as it should be ! Good honest quality work💪 I will be definitely getting mine done when needed Amazing another great video totally enjoyed it 👍
@@WMCS How could i not mate ! This is how it should have been done all along ! Brilliant Kevin It Helps everybody out when done this way Again thanks forbthe great video buddy 👍👏I really enjoy them 👍
The pressure plates on these Honda diesel clutches are supposed to be pre-tensioned. There's a special tool that is used to pre-tension them before you tighten the bolts. up.
@@kudzy11 no it wasn't. Watch from 39:00 as flywheel is gunned on and then at 42:00 clutch bolts are put on. There's no pretension tool used. The thing in the middles is just a clutch centering tool.
I know it might be tough sometimes, but working for yourself, setting your own schedule being your own boss must be incredible, your hard work pays off Hats off to you
I wouldn’t change it for the world. The freedom of time. No one controls my time or my wage and my life. I don’t have to agree with a boss or people that I may not particularly want to be around ..! I became financially independent after 3 years. No finance. No loan. No mortgage 💸... now that is something.
I used to work for Land Rover. So knew only that brand. Working on other make and models took about a year to get used to. And it was a slow process. I used to start at 06:00 am. And sometimes finished about 8:00pm. Then again I was doing two a day. But you quickly get accustomed to it all. I only do one repair a day now.
@@WMCS that's good going! How did you manage that? Guess the pay is a lot better than as a LR tech? Do you have other vans running or just yourself? Good job on this, not sure they could of put anymore brackets on this thing! 🙄
Reminds me of when i removed the gearbox from my jdm integra type r and fitted an exedy clutch kit ,built up and my g box was still wining ,i thought it was the release bearing,it wasn't lol it was the output shaft in the transmission ,gearbox removed on drive again 2 months later as it got so loud lol! 🤣 took 3 of us to roll it out on a jack and 3 of ys one to position the jack whilst 2 of us lifted and fitted the box back on. Noce job on an integra dc2 but damne! The box was huge! L.s.d ! Was also on our backs but i did most of the strip down and rebulid,twice! Ha!
Do you know much about electrics? I have a neighbour with Yaris tail light fuse keeps blowing. Replaced new bulbs and bulb socket that was corroded, but still recoccurs. Is there a short or have you experienced this before whats the fix? Any help appreciated.
Nice work . I can see you use two different brands, flywheel Valeo and clutch Luk.Can you tell me why ? I ordered a luk clutch with a flywheel 750 EU this is the cheapest I found,it goes to 1200 eu in some shops. How much time to change the clutch in the garage on the post lift?
Man is a contortionist. At 33:45 he's got the engine supported by the rolling hydraulic jack, he slides under the transaxle and supports it with his arms and hands - and while doing that he uses his right leg to push on the handle of the rolling jack in order to lift the saddle of the rolling jack and thus lift the engine up into a more comfortable position for pulling the transaxle out and down with his arms and hands onto his stomach, chest, arms, and hands. I suppose that working the jack himself is probably safer than waylaying a passer-by to do it.
Hello. Did this have the self adjusting clutch? I’m planning to change my clutch on my accord, but I’m worried about needing the special tool for the automatic self adjuster.
Hi great job 😊 would this be the same process for my accord 2.2 icdti 07 plate , needs clutch and duel mass or thinking of changing to single mass , many thanks
@@WMCS got a cracked manifold and timing chain to do aswell lol , headache . 😔 Only had car a month and ive ended up with all the crap lol , oh well thats cars i suppose .
Another brilliant video u must have the will power of a lion. U are too good I can't believe u are not on tv u will make ed china look like an apprentice.
This channel popped up on my recommended videos a few days ago and can't stop watching for some reason! Some graft. One thing I've noticed a lot in your videos is the state of discs on some of the cars your working on. You should offer a disc and pad change service as well given the fact your in about them any way. But then where does it stop, it'll be drive shafts, CV joints, the lot.
Looking for some advice mine went into garage yesterday to have a replacement uprated clutch put in all be it second had but from same year and model, the mechanic said the kit wasn't right as the box wouldn't go back on but after checking part numbers across the years there's no variation apart from an update to the pressure plate but all are interchangeable, I have also spoke to the rep for the company that make the clutch and they are stumped too. The garage said he couldn't get the box on the last inch or so, have you experienced anything like that with these 2.2 civic as I'm now without a working car and stranded 30 miles from home
I’ve never used a second hand part. But on the 2.2 as far as I’m aware from experience there’s only one EXEDY Kit And only 1 LUK kit. With a Valeo DMF. Only thing I can think of the second hand part was wrong.
Hello, shouldn't you use a presse tool for correct clutch installation? I saw tutorials that saying that auto-ajustement clutches must be installed with presstool. Sorry for my bad english. Greetings from France
A number of vehicles now have the slave cylinder inside the Bell housing and it is advisable to change this along with the clutch assembly, have you come across these yet?
80percent would go to a shop for a clutch replacement, 19percent would do it by themselfes in their garage or with help from a friend, and only 1percent would dare to proceed doing this in his yard. But when you've done it multiple times i suppose its little bit different then
@@E69apeTheMatrix420 yep I've been there and done it on a 2.2 iCTDi Civic. Never again! It wasn't worth the saving of not paying a garage. Utter crap job. It's not technically difficult but a complete ball ache.
Well worth investing in the Milwaukee M12 Stubby!!!! That high-torque is overkill and is slowing you down taking off wheel arch-liners, undertrays, and even starter bolts etc. Its far lighter and turns faster. Just a thought! The high torque is brilliant for Axle nuts and wheel bolts as and when you need it, but you will find yourself working much faster when you arent swigning that big thing about with its slow rpm!
Just want to say I am in no way trying to take away from what you are doing, great work from a master of his craft, just a suggestion to make you some more money!
Well I lived through every grunt and groan well done and I have a little question if you answer them and that is, I have the same engine and gearbox and when I pull away it really judders sometimes I even stall.I think by process of elimination it is probably an unevenly worn clutch plate but is there a way of reasonably discovering this? A slight aside was the gearbox already full of oil? as you just put a touch in the top as I’m on the spectrum details bother me thanks
It’s most likely the pressure plate getting weak. Not squeezing the clutch against the flywheel enough. The oil was just to show where it goes rather than me showing the filling up.
Hey Kevin! Great job! A quick question, if you dont mind; at the moment when you have disassambled everything, is it possible to replace the crankshaft seal, or do you need to disass. the engine itself for that? Cheers, have a nice one!
Hallo Kevin,i have the Same Honda the Problem is that sadenly Happens that mi Clauch Paddel is complitliy and Stay in the Same Position and i checket the stop Flood Oli everthing is in Right Position,can you tell me please was is rong with mi cluch i have to mach Respekt to York work fantastisk Sorry with min englisch.
Hi Kevin great work, I hear so many saying the dual mass flywheel should be pre tensioned when installing the new clutch, what are your thoughts please, I'm about to do this same job and could do with the advice regards Neil
Great job you did there! I would like to buy a used Honda Civic 2.2 diesel, but I’ve read that due to the heavy torque they’ll probably need a clutch + DMF replacement around 100K miles or so. And that the Honda parts alone could cost about £2000, or maybe 75% of that going aftermarket instead. Is that accurate - and are they reliable apart from that?
I’ve been a mechanic for 40yrs and I truly admire your working in all weathers , been there myself and still servicing .Kevin you have a special gift good luck in the future. Billy
Thank you for the support Billy.

Looking for some advice mine went into garage yesterday to have a replacement uprated clutch put in all be it second had but from same year and model, the mechanic said the kit wasn't right as the box wouldn't go back on but after checking part numbers across the years there's no variation apart from an update to the pressure plate but all are interchangeable, I have also spoke to the rep for the company that make the clutch and they are stumped too. The garage said he couldn't get the box on the last inch or so, have you experienced anything like that with these 2.2 civic as I'm now without a working car and stranded 30 miles from home
I’ve never used a second hand part.
But on the 2.2 as far as I’m aware from experience there’s only one EXEDY Kit
And only 1 LUK kit. With a Valeo DMF.
Only thing I can think of the second hand part was wrong.
This videos are therapeutic in a weird way.
I’m always saying the same thing on these transmission videos
Beacuse he is doing it like milk and butter. I bet I would break half of plastics, bolts and had extra parts at the end 😅
Great video, you can learn more than just a clutch replacement 👍
Hello, shouldn't you use a presse tool for correct clutch installation? I saw tutorials that saying that auto-ajustement clutches must be installed with presstool.
Sorry for my bad english. Greetings from France
Please, what is the reference of this clutch ( LUK) ?
Good job!I have the same to do and I have a question :
Should I put thread lock on the new flywheel screws? Many thanks
It should come with. But if not then yes for sure.
Many thanks for your answer. 👍 I'll do that on a crv III i-cdti. Same motor but with a huge subframe to remove 😅
A number of vehicles now have the slave cylinder inside the Bell housing and it is advisable to change this along with the clutch assembly, have you come across these yet?
Yeah all the time on ford vans
You’re absolutely right. Have a look through the channel to see countless of them getting replaced. Stay tuned and subscribe
Just in case how much would you charge to fit a clutch in a skoda Octavia MK3 2015 1.6tdi..... in Nottingham??
Nottingham is fine. Send your details via

Scary amount of work.
Thank you for full in-depth step by step video.
Excellent Quality vidéo, thank you for the work. Amazing filming plan m8. We working with you.
Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated
80percent would go to a shop for a clutch replacement, 19percent would do it by themselfes in their garage or with help from a friend, and only 1percent would dare to proceed doing this in his yard. But when you've done it multiple times i suppose its little bit different then
Proud to say I'm the 1%. That makes me feel special. Haha
@@E69apeTheMatrix420 yep I've been there and done it on a 2.2 iCTDi Civic. Never again! It wasn't worth the saving of not paying a garage. Utter crap job. It's not technically difficult but a complete ball ache.
Well worth investing in the Milwaukee M12 Stubby!!!! That high-torque is overkill and is slowing you down taking off wheel arch-liners, undertrays, and even starter bolts etc. Its far lighter and turns faster. Just a thought! The high torque is brilliant for Axle nuts and wheel bolts as and when you need it, but you will find yourself working much faster when you arent swigning that big thing about with its slow rpm!
Just want to say I am in no way trying to take away from what you are doing, great work from a master of his craft, just a suggestion to make you some more money!
I’ve got a smaller 3/8 Dewalt. You’re right tho.
I suppose I just grab minimal amount of tools to take out.
The Best as always! Great job Kevin!
For those shirty horseshoe clips for the cables a pair of needle nose pliers with a curved end is great.
Well I lived through every grunt and groan well done and I have a little question if you answer them and that is, I have the same engine and gearbox and when I pull away it really judders sometimes I even stall.I think by process of elimination it is probably an unevenly worn clutch plate but is there a way of reasonably discovering this? A slight aside was the gearbox already full of oil? as you just put a touch in the top as I’m on the spectrum details bother me thanks
It’s most likely the pressure plate getting weak. Not squeezing the clutch against the flywheel enough.
The oil was just to show where it goes rather than me showing the filling up.
@@WMCS brilliant that will be helpful
I'M watching you from Argentina! I've 1 question. What hapend in the box of velocity if on 5th march makes a noice ?
Thank you.
Hi Kevin, therapeutic to watch as always, great work! What brand are those long spanners that you used quite a bit in this video?
I used to own one of those cars, and my mechanic said it was a five hour job to change the clutch. I can see why now.
5 hours is pretty quick ! Some cars are over 8 hours to do ! And take more like 2 days lol!
Hey Kevin! Great job! A quick question, if you dont mind; at the moment when you have disassambled everything, is it possible to replace the crankshaft seal, or do you need to disass. the engine itself for that? Cheers, have a nice one!
Once the flywheel is off then you can get to it. Very easily
Is it the same process for a gasoline 2008 Honda Civic?
waaay much easier. Not so much in the way. Subscribe and have a look through the channel. There’s specific video for petrol ones.
Will do brother. Thanks!
Hallo Kevin,i have the Same Honda the Problem is that sadenly Happens that mi Clauch Paddel is complitliy and Stay in the Same Position and i checket the stop Flood Oli everthing is in Right Position,can you tell me please was is rong with mi cluch i have to mach Respekt to York work fantastisk Sorry with min englisch.
Hi Kevin great work, I hear so many saying the dual mass flywheel should be pre tensioned when installing the new clutch, what are your thoughts please, I'm about to do this same job and could do with the advice regards Neil
Sorry was meant to say clutch pre tensioned 😄
Full respect to you rain or shine your there great skills and must have bionic chest muscles lol👍👍
How much Oil shoud be in this gearbox after removing?
Great job you did there!
I would like to buy a used Honda Civic 2.2 diesel, but I’ve read that due to the heavy torque they’ll probably need a clutch + DMF replacement around 100K miles or so.
And that the Honda parts alone could cost about £2000, or maybe 75% of that going aftermarket instead.
Is that accurate - and are they reliable apart from that?
If the clutch is just sliding but no other symptoms of DMF damage, I just let changed the complete clutch. I had bearibg sounds as well.
