This work is a pain in the ass! No wonder it cost a small fortune to replace a clutch on a car! This dude is taking a complete gearbox on his belly! Respect!
Hello Kevin! Awesome videos! really perfect! I'm french and I do some mechanic myself on my Ford Focus 2 Petrol 1.6l and soon I'll need to replace the clutch (the current one has 135 000kms) and your video on the same car as mine is really awesome and makes me much more confident about doing it. Plus that this Ford Focus has a lot of room to do easy mechanic! Anyway, keep up the good work that's awesome!!
Great work and you get it done in any weather fair play credit deserved. It's nice to be able to see how it's done before hand so you no what to expect thank you.
@@WMCS yes I do I'm a heavy vehicle mechanic just qualified since July very busy tho don't do much on cars only my own stuff good experience aswel tho 😎
Well shot video,a bit weird with the baraklava and no talking but thanks for convincing me to pay my backstreet garage mechanic £150 instead of all that hastle attempting it myself,lol
gregos73 no probs. Got a replacement camera now ... so back on track. I should have some great footage this week coming up .... how’s life treating you anyway ....
Great job. Thanks again for sharing. It seems that this transmission case had very little liquid. Then I noticed the internal shattering of the pressure disk. And bell. Greetings.
carles Girona it seems the pressure plate failed causing the metal debris to put a while through the bell housing. I’d assume that’s when it lost the transmission oil. appreciate your input in the video
If you know which vehicle you will be working on, usually the lower track controll arm to knuckle bolt is a one time use jobby (Pre-Stretch). You would then be able to supply new ones.
m2mark1 it’s the second one with similar mileage about 40K that’s blown the clutch ... Lucky he’s managed to pick up another box on eBay for about £250.
@@WMCS I did 3 clutches on 1.6 eco boost, the 1 litre never had any trouble though. It was always the clutch plate spines and rivets that would fall out and rattle round causing damage
Lot of ancillary work to get to the top mount, oh orange-handed one 😉 great video and congratulations on owning the world's LARGEST impact driver, bet it goes for days before a charge 😁. Just got a Freelander 2 and this makes me think that I can change the clutch when it needs it
Splatman HooHa 😂😂 that was funny made me laugh... the orange hand very much appreciate the review .... That impact is a heavy one ... probably one of the heaviest for its range ... but it pacts a punch 🥊.... they are not that bad them freelander. Just a bit heavy ....
That failure certainly done some damage, let alone the cost. On the plus side they got the right mechanic to do the job. Hope you have plenty on to keep you busy.
125 SM we had a replacement box but the bell housing depth was less than the original one .... Thanks .. I do one clutch every day... so I’m working every day .... what about yourself are you in an independent garage ...
@@WMCS keep up the good work and 1 clutch a day is enough on its own. As for me, just a DIY mechanic but do plenty of repair work for others that keeps me busy on top of everything esle I do lol
Theres a recall on that model for the same problem the recall includes a software update to reduce torque if clutch slip is detected. Ford etis website can confirm this.
Hi John. As much as the Milwaukee is highly rated as a power tool. The battery casing is a big let down. It’s only held together by 4 of the smallest screws ever. You can have daily mistake them for an iPhone screws ... so to answer your question it’s to try and keep the battery casing from separating....
That's extra cost for your customer not been street racing have they 😂they are going to be really pleased when you have completed the job we really rely on these machines today they can be confident in the job done excellent work Kevin will be playing catchup from time to time got to go to heart specialist more problems age..... 👍👍
Alister West as always thank you for your reviews and sharing on the forum... I’m a bit baffled with Ford. It’s the third one that I’ve done this year with a blown up clutch resulting in similar gearbox failure.... I wonder if there’s an issue with these clutches ... This car is meant to be their sport version .... hope everything goes well for you on your check ups ... good blessing
Alister West only 40k miles that was .... but on average the new ford and vauxhall are burning clutches at about 50k we are noticing. Compared to the older cars which was on average about 90-100kmiles.
@@WMCS yikes. We have '06 mk3 2.0 TDCi 130 Mondeo in family. It burned DMF every 50k miles. Now it's on 3rd clutch kit with 220k km. Don't know if it is poor design or it could be due to driver and driving conditions (car is mostly driven in city).
Hi! I have a problem that if I go with him a lot in town or long distance, when I release the clutch at the last 1cm it shakes the whole car. It doesn’t do it cold just after a while, every time you start. Can it be a clutch mechanism or a dual-mass flywheel? Thanks!
Great video, is there much difference between the 1.6 and the 1.0 petrol Zetec S focus 125 with 6 speed gearbox. If you ever do one I hope you film it. Does the dual mass flywheel always have to be changed at the same time as the clutch? You are doing a great job and make good videos. Thanks Kevin.
Hi David. Yes a considerable amount of difference..., which one of the two would you like a video of. Yes DMF always to be changed with new clutch kit. It won’t last the clutch for sure.
@@WMCS Hi Kevin, it would be great to see a video of the 1.0 petrol Zetec S focus 125 with 6 speed gearbox. I have watched your video of 1.6 petrol focus, which was great. So is the 1.0 focus easier or harder to do? Thanks.
Northerner 137 Hello, im from México and I run a small automotive repair shop, this being a 3rd world country we never get more than 1000 pesos for a clutch replacement (1000 pesos = 40 USD +-) customer simply wont pay More than that, but this guy Is awesome btw 😂
Wow 😮 what sort of mileage did that have to be in that condition. Never have or will own a ford car. Started off when I left school a YTS scheme at ford motor company in the factory In the mid 90s I wasn’t that dumb and gullible that they made shite motors they were Rusting Heavy at 3 years old 🤣🤣

Was that an exploding dual mass flywheel that shuck the clutch plate to bits and it snapped on the spline

what make is the impact is it the Milwaukee high torque.great job by the way.
Lots of oil in that gearbox Kevin

Which is the better brand? LUK or Sachs?
1.6 ecoboost. Should a dual weight flywheel be replaced in all cases?

Salut Messaouda., ca vas bient
Good job !!! May I ask how many repairs like this you are able to do during one day?
Grzegorz Skolimowski in the winter months I only do one a day. But during summer time i normally do two a day...
A 19.5mm socket makes removing ford lug nuts a lot easier
Driving with their foot on the clutch look at the heat marks on the flywheel ☹️☹️☹️
Nice job! How long did you need for the whole change?
About 4 hrs
Great video, is there much difference between the 1.6 and the 1.0 petrol Zetec S focus 125 with 6 speed gearbox. If you ever do one I hope you film it.
