You've gotta give props to mechanics out there dealing with terrible designs, and people that expect a clutch job to be done in one hour, especially on newer cars. Love ya work, Kevin.
That trans/diff looked more cumbersome that most. I got a tray about the same size as yours it worked great, I can't believe I didn't think of it 30 years ago.
Thanks for this video and perfect job. I have a scenic 1.6 dci and no video of clutch replacement on web so if you have this kind of car in the next videos it will be great
Amazing love upload! Keep them coming and thumbs up! 💜 Enjoy your day and have a great start of the new week! 💙 for your HARD work, Stay Save you and your fam. 💗
I've been watching your videos for a long time now since i found the channel kevin, top job as always, and what you do deserves massive respect really. As a coming up and still learning mechanic myself, i've done quite a lot of clutches but on a shop ramp, but so far i've done 2 clutches on jack stands and i really know what it's like. I was curious though and i would like to ask your opinion if you're familiar with daihatsu copens or sirions, the earlier ones, where the design of those cars has all the engine mounts on the subframe, is it possible somehow to do a clutch on one of these without dropping the engine with the trans, just dropping the subframe, if there is a way to support the engine somehow; Haven't come across a clutch job on one of these yet but i've serviced one or two in the past and if i remember right there is no right hand side driver engine mount to hold the engine when all the other mounts are gone.
If I remember correct… I have done the older version of the Sirion you’re mentioning .. Is there no top engine mount at all ..? If they’re like the old Volvo V70 where everything literally sits on the subframe it can still be done. Jack up the vehicle. Sit all subframe sides with axle stands unbolt the fasteners Then jack up the car a further 5/6 inches. After that you can work from the top accessing all relevant gearbox mounts fairly easy.. WhatsApp me a few photos of the underside just out of interest. +44 (0)7376369067
@@WMCS Thanks for replying ! Unfortunately i don't have any photos and searching online i can't seem to find good clear ones to send. But i understand what you said with the subframe and then jacking up the car off of it slightly. I'm located in Greece and I haven't come across such a V70 with the same design as the sirion - copen. Thanks a lot for the tip ! I admit i have never thought of that, just not sure if it will work on the sirion or copen, i remember the space between the subframe and the frame rails is next to none, i did the serpentine belts on a sirion not a while ago and it was a pain. If i remember right there was no top engine mount, the whole drivetrain is supported on the subframe.
Hi Kevin hope you are well. I’m just in the middle of doing a clutch and flywheel job on my scirocco and your video has been an excellent reference. My new clutch didn’t come with replacement bolts for the pressure plate and the concentric slave cylinder. Do I need to replace these bolts with new ones or can re-use the old bolts with with thread locker and also should these be torqued up with a torque wrench or can I just do them up with a ratchet? For reference I’m using a Sachs flywheel and a Sachs 3 pc clutch kit. My car is the 2.0 tsi petrol engine. Apologies for all the questions it’s my first time changing a clutch on a car.
For anyone wondering why he’s being so careful with those ball joint studs and nuts the reason is that they snap off really easily so you loosen, tighten and repeat until it’s off You only have to look at those studs cross eyed and they sheer off lol Glad to see your still as busy as ever bro
Great job buddy. Where can I buy that alignment tool for clutch? I have a golf mk5 2.0 tdi .Do you perhaps know where I can get the torque setting for the flywheel (6 bolts)

Wielkie podziękowania za to video. Bez problemu wymieniłem komplet.
Great Job! It's a tough job to do in a shop, let alone out at a location with minimal equipment!
Thank you.

Hi Kevin, you always put 2 axles stands on each side. Can you put an axle stand anywhere along the sill and not do any damage to said sill?
Great Video. Don't suppose you've got any 2.0 TSI lined up?
Superman 👍
What a daft design. At least I now understand why the clutch on my v.v.similar Seat Leon diesel cost a lot more than I thought it would!
Hola amigo buenas noches , y en este modelo de clutch ( SAC ) hace falta alguna herramienta especial??
Perdona por la pregunta.
Me encantan tus trabajos. En el min 9.34 desmonta esta pieza porque? why disassemble that piece?
Hi kev wondering if you have ever done a crv 2nd generation up to date as i have one.keep safe friend still enjoying your videos🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
salut j aimerai bien savoir combien tu prend de main d'oeuvre sans les pièces excellent boulot en tous cas
but the video is cut or does it really take an hour?
👍👍
excellent videos! have you ever changed the one for a vw tiguan 2.0 tsi?
I’ve got an enquiry for one. So hopefully I can get the repair to film it.
@@WMCS okay . I hope you can do it, it would be great to see it. greetings and thanks for responding
You taking your time on this one?
8:30 why do you loosen these screws gradually and not all at once?
Would this be similar to a vw caddy
Guten Tag sehr schön arbeiten du bist Profi gut wenn du schreibst Daten von Autos Motto und wie viel km gefahren mit Kupplung Danke
semi-slick tires on front ;)
💪👏💯✊
What's the typical cost for this job ?
What's the gearbox oil capacity?
Drive shaft flange stuck.. I cannot put it back, its like the threads don`t align properly anymore :((. Any suggestions?? :(
You have to press it in with a lever bar. There’s a spring in there. Check the video
@@WMCS I did but its like the hole inside it doesnt allow it to go in. It doesnt even enter all the way up to the spring :(
Embrayage SAC... sans compresseur d embrayage ???
8:07 I guess you snap it in another car. Heat it will help to melt the Loctite.
Hope to send some parts to you. Is it possible?
Yes of course
@@WMCS Good, can I get your contact?
snap-on et mieux que facom,
Snap-on a plus d’outils et de machine sans fil.
56:02 who done that?
*Hole in the cuff?* 😱😱😱😲

hey
damn. he only had 65K miles on and he already had to replace the clutch??? guess this person is a bad clutch driver... lol
The car is 11 years old and 65k only. My van is 2 years old and I ve done 33k so far
👍👍
