Al , I absolutely love your expressions , plus you're a spot-on mechanic , always a joy to watch your videos , keep 'em coming please , have a great half a week
You seem to have a nose for finding gems masquerading as boxes of nastiness. I just love your approach. Tickle them under the chin , pat them on the head, rub their tummy and give them a good wash then regime them. Just brilliant😂
Absolutely classic. You deserve a bit of good news Al. The Kangoo's gonna be a classic in your very capable hands. I love the Stevie Wonder fitted exhaust !!!
That's a great but Al. I've only recently found your channel, I really enjoy your style of presenting. You're depth of knowledge is fantastic. Thank you.
The sheer artisanal bodgerology of that exhaust system leaves me lost in admiration 😂 I couldn't have done better if I was a native of an as yet undiscovered Amazonian tribe.
What a flippin brilliant presenter. No fake shit. If you're not too busy i'd like you to swap over my crappy Lucas fuel pump to a Bosch one on my DW8 1.9 Peugeot Partner
When we was up at Ryan's and it drove past you got all excited. Your comment was I'm having that, it's going to be mine. That's more an Al form of transportation than a Peugeot. You can throw tools and spares in the back and go across the fields to do more barn finds.😂
I just cant get my head around the pure bodging of the exhaust repair! Great deduction in the fuel saga. Engine sounds good apart from exhaust! Nice work Al. Looking forward to a video with said van and green paint jumping off!
Came across your channel couple weeks ago, subscribed, lov your videos, busy back tracking your material, that's a great catchy tune u use in your videos, don't ever change it😂 thumbs-up all the time
I’m in the village (6D), didn’t realise you had a TH-cam channel. It’s only right that I like and subscribe. Might book my van in with you because of an oil leak if that’s alright?
Great work, you show why youre and diesel expert, i dont mind petrols to work on but diesels are not fun to fault find and i have 3 of them at the moment.
Brilliant and inspired purchase Al, and yet another great video! You‘ve proven that it doesn’t need something as big as an Iceberg to sink a ship, a tiny fleck of old rubber can be just as efective - the skill is in knowing where to look, and you have that skill in spades ! Not even going to mention the exhaust, save to say, tw4t bodgery at its‘ finest. Once again, she’ll be a good ‘un once you’ve givenb her a sprinkle of Al‘s expert Unicorn dust loking forward to the next one Keep ’em comin‘ JCHK
Hi Al great video as always mate. I tell you what mate even with the few jobs you've got to do to the Kangoo and obviously the bit of money you've got to spend, that was one cheap little van! Those little 4x4 turbo diesel Kangoo's are brilliant little tools if looked after, which now in your care it obviously will be. Brilliant mate well done...👍🙂👍
I bought 2 of these (MPV not Van) brand new, in Spain, in 2004 and again in 2007. We filmed all over Europe in them, including 2000miles in Morocco - you could get 4 crew and all the gear in them, more than 2 Freelanders the first one replaced. Surprisingly capable off road (better than the Landys with their weak little clutches), brilliant in the snow, only defeated by sand where we had to use sand ladders. I couldn't get the 1.9 diesel as they stopped making it - they couldn't make it Euro IV compliant. The 16V 1.6 petrol was eager but thirsty and a bit underpowered, naturally, but tough nonetheless. Utilitarian but comfortable with a simple air con, that blew ice cold, better than the fancy climate control in my Audi. I fitted Parrot BT and Tom Tom - fancy at the time. Here people would laugh at you looking like Postman Pat - in Spain no one did -The forestry fire department had fleets of them then. One of the few vehicles the Guardia Civil would let you pass on snow covered blocked mountain roads, without snow chains too. The first one my camera assistant totalled and the second smashed the gearbox bottoming out on rough terrain. They have plates under the main components but not tough enough it seemed.
@@diogofaustino4348 They were great vehicles, and I'd buy one tomorrow, if they still made them. The first one I collected in the Renault showroom could have been a Range Rover, for all I knew then, such was the sense of occasion.
@@CUTproductionsLtd yeah I flew to Scotland to buy my first one but apparently it didn't like the 8 hour motorway drive back home and the engine top end starved itself from oil, so within a couple of weeks, another one came up with half the mileage and in the same colour. Obviously I had to pull the trigger and the first one is now not only a donor but an experimental vehicle. Because there aren't any workshop manuals out there, I try to undo the parts on the first one so I don't mess up the daily😂 Now thinking about doing a F4R swap into it as the K4M is definitely not up to anything other than flat surfaces. I've been spotted holding down traffic going into second on uphill bits around here😂
Drive a 16 reg 110 1.5 diesel Renault captur now road tax free for life very good reason to look after it . Ps love your channel keep this content up please
I love these vans I bought one with 200k miles for £600 few years ago now drove it to and throw from Spain did 270k and sold it for what paid for it £600 injectors seals were leaking back fuel to tank overnight had to easy start it every morning
A van-eating neighbour (he goes through them like in about 3 a year) had a vivaro a couple years back with that kind of no-start but fired on "supplements" issue, dunno if it was that issue, but the mechanics that took it away had it running and running in no time, once they hammered the brakes free, filled the tyres and drove it onto the back of their loader, they were probably laughing, probably the same guys who took his Caddy away last week too, he's not good with looking after things, or, you know, taking them to a garage to be fixed... :P
I had one of these.....amazed me off road (long time Landrover enthusiast)......Just a note....I had a front wheel bearing giving it some whine....and I went to Renault and asked how much to fix. F*ckin hell. it was $$$$$$$$$....turns out that as you will see the front suspension and bearings/works etc are not the same as normal and are one off specials.....the wheel bearing is huge, bigger than a Landrover wheelbearing (I was renovating a Series Landrover at the same time). So Huge wheel bearings = Huge price....(I bought a bearing press and did it myself)....bearing was pricey at Renault, but I went to my local bearing supplier and it was about half the Renault price.
I can tell ya from experience that easysniff will drowned her ,the best sniff is a brand called HEET. you lucky duck that less cheese reno starter is a sweet one, good video. Im surprised you didnt find a score jubileed clipped to the cherrybomb to get her throught the mot😂😂😂😂

Fantastic Video, as always.
One thing: watch out with that 2-post lift, its leaking and letting down. Check the timelapse. 😳
"We'll save that bit" oh my lord 😂😂😂😂 .
Absolutely classic. You deserve a bit of good news Al. The Kangoo's gonna be a classic in your very capable hands. I love the Stevie Wonder fitted exhaust !!!
Respect to the diesel 👑
The speck of rubber in the pump assembly indirectly saved the whole vehicle from a slow, bodgy death by stopping the vehicle entirely. 😊
I never knew there was a 4WD version. Bargainage Al.
I had an old Trekka for 12 years they were great go anywhere vans, not the cheapest to run, but a great van non the else, enjoy
Great video, that exhaust, thats 10 out 10 for bodging 😂. Good to have you back.
Bought one of these Kangoo Trekkas new back in 2002, regret selling it. Check out my early videos for soft roading in it. Loved it.
That's a great but Al. I've only recently found your channel, I really enjoy your style of presenting. You're depth of knowledge is fantastic.
Thank you.
the green looks like an andrew scott green
The sheer artisanal bodgerology of that exhaust system leaves me lost in admiration 😂 I couldn't have done better if I was a native of an as yet undiscovered Amazonian tribe.
Never knew they did a 4x4 kangoo lol, well I've seen one now .
I love a fix like that where other people have given up trying to fault find .
What a flippin brilliant presenter. No fake shit. If you're not too busy i'd like you to swap over my crappy Lucas fuel pump to a Bosch one on my DW8 1.9 Peugeot Partner
Speak , if you like , but if you do it , be loud and clear. Thank you for your kindness.
In these days of not very much fun going on , you do make me laugh! . Your work and banter is refreshing and oddly captivating
You really need to hire a Cameraman Al. 😀😀😀
The only thing to improve that exhaust would have been 6 or 8lbs of exhaust paste slathered around the general area...
Great videos and your commentary is priceless.....keep them coming.
Brilliant! So refreshing to see some proper knowledgable problem solving with successful results. Such a great channel keep up the good work. 👍👍
I also love Als expressions.. and words.. a joy to watch. Love these easy fixes. Well done. Love these vids too..
Your a genius
Great work with the diagnosis
Your not a quitter that’s for sure 👍
Brilliant video! Thoroughly enjoyed it!
When we was up at Ryan's and it drove past you got all excited. Your comment was I'm having that, it's going to be mine.
That's more an Al form of transportation than a Peugeot. You can throw tools and spares in the back and go across the fields to do more barn finds.😂
You always said you like a good MUFFLER😂😂😂😂😂
Love these videos. Keep up the good work. I also have a fascination with French cars 😊
Class as ever. How to make mechanics jobs fun, just involve the husky voiced Al. Brilliant, already looking forward to the next instalment.
Absolutely marvellous to see how incredibly ingenious some scroats can be , and how you describe the shite …love it .
Very entertaining video Al ,loved the “quality”exhaust bodge
Love your videos and dry humour 😅 keep them coming 😊

I Must get the number of the exhaust fella, excellent quality job

Excellent 👍
Well, they didn't skimp on the Jubilee clip
Cracking bargain buy!

The previous owner obviously went to kwik fit for he’s exhaust 😂😂😂
What a lovely rear muffler on the S124 in the background!
It’s fine I was half way through changing the rubber mounting rings
@@6DDIESELSDorset fair play, looks like a solid mercedes
Cherry bomb at the back AL your the man 😅
Man's van 👌
Those Renault 4x4's. They don't dangel around! 😄
Colour me weird, I like the green, we had a shed that colour. A nice NA shed with a 1.9 XUD would do me.
I realised the other day I bought a light off you no e bay, running light for iveco small world 👍
7 days in a week 7 daily drivers - can not fault the maths
I had one of these.....amazed me off road (long time Landrover enthusiast)......Just a note....I had a front wheel bearing giving it some whine....and I went to Renault and asked how much to fix. F*ckin hell. it was $$$$$$$$$....turns out that as you will see the front suspension and bearings/works etc are not the same as normal and are one off specials.....the wheel bearing is huge, bigger than a Landrover wheelbearing (I was renovating a Series Landrover at the same time). So Huge wheel bearings = Huge price....(I bought a bearing press and did it myself)....bearing was pricey at Renault, but I went to my local bearing supplier and it was about half the Renault price.
Well whoever did that exhaust needs stuffing
was i going crazy or was that lift dropping very slowly while you was under it doing the starter motor im sure i could see it slowly moving down
That's exactly why I jumped to the comments section, is the lift locking out ok?
😂 enjoyed that!😂
Also have you thought of turning one of these small vans into a Microcamper.
I’ve done one for a mate on a standard kangoo 👍
The renault 1.9d hates starter fluid ! I tried too, had to change the glow plugs
I can tell ya from experience that easysniff will drowned her ,the best sniff is a brand called HEET. you lucky duck that less cheese reno starter is a sweet one, good video. Im surprised you didnt find a score jubileed clipped to the cherrybomb to get her throught the mot😂😂😂😂
Plank exhaust fitter
You make this look easy, it's not!
Never seen 1.9 one ever get that thing going it move 🤣
