I believe this is the one of the most difficult clutch and dual mass wheel replacement. You need to dismantle half of the car to get access to the clutch plate. Well done Kevin. Love your videos!
This guy is an absolute soldier! I done clutch repairs for my first year as a mobile Mechanic but I had to quit. Back breaking work. I only do the light repairs now.
I'm right with you bro!! The work he does, and the level of professionalism he does it with, is NOT for the average person OR skilled mechanic! As I said before, he is in a class by himself!!
I just can't believe you drop the whole engine like that in the driveway, truly amazing! Plus I'll never understand how you get the whole damn thing back together again afterwards, that's the real magic...
Hey Tim.., thanks so much for the feedback.,, you’re one of my heroes. So that’ll be a dream to meet up one day. I’m still a big fan of your videos. I was actually just watching the detailed tour of your mobile workshop just last evening.
@@WMCS I REALLY appreciate that bro, but TRUST ME, the hero here is YOU. If you ever call our shop for a price on ANYTHING that has to do with a clutch or transmission, they will tell you we don't do anything that has to do with them. So to watch you do what you do, ON THE GROUND, is PHENOMINAL!!!
Hi Kevin, I heard your customer comment about Skoda in New Zealand. I live there and two years ago (Xmas) we bought an RS245 Wagon over a VW. The simple truth. All the same tech as VW & Audi for a 1/3 of the price. I stumbled across your channel as i was looking for someone who's replaced rotors and brakes on a VAG car. I need to admit, you're very exceptional at your job Kevin; you make it look so easy - clearly it's not. I wish you all the best health and a long career chief.
Not sure whether your mechanical aptitude or work ethic is more impressive. Qualities that seem in short supply these days. Not extinct, but increasingly rare. Full respect 👍
Glad to see the snow and ice has gone for you hope you have a good summer and some nice weather you deserve it love you're vids you are a man at the top of your game
I did the clutch on my 1990 Volvo on my driveway after watching a Chrisfix and reading how to in my Haynes manual. Before that I hadn't done any mechanical jobs other than oil change. Wasn't very fun at times and took about 3 days but the satisfaction was well worth it in the end. Keep up the good work 💪
This is my 3rd 2.0tdi video I've watched of yours.. You've tought me well. My clutch comes tomorrow 😝👍 Like a virgin, cluched for the very first time!!
@@WMCS I've bought a rear main seal too, my cars mk2 seat leon 135k, when the flywheel is off, can I change it there and then? I'm not 100% Much appreciated!
Being able to comfortably replace clutches of various models at people's homes is a skill most of us have not seen anywhere else - bravo! Kevin-Albert, what would you say are the manufacturers you enjoy working on the most, or could you name a few you find the easiest to work on?
Bonjour a toi William je te tire mon chapeau car je le faisais il y a longtemps le plus dur c'est de prendre la boîte de vitesse sur toi et de la remettre très bon travail continue a +
Amazing !!! I watched few of your videos and am wondering, how come someone out there did NOT offer you a great job and pay that you could not refuse, you're one of the best out there. Ed China has nothing on you, nothing.
I say it all the time the mans got the skills and a bionic chest keep lifting those gearbox’s in and out. Fantastic work and love how you still make the time to do the videos for everyone to watch👍👍👍
Christ alive Kev thats hard work.. in winter.. on the floor.. just great.. I did my nissan pathfinder clutch and drive plate on the floor in the summer last year... hardest job I've done.. certainly as hard as an engine replacement if you replace the clutch on axle stands..
Before I watch this video, I'll just comment... I followed your videos on the Insignia and the Astra (I have the 13 plate SRI Insignia) to help me to do the job myself, because I was well outside of your coverage area. I purchased the Sachs clutch kit (including DMF and new CSC), purchased all of the tools necessary and I followed everything you did on those jobs. The end result? SUCCESS! And I can't thank you enough again for your videos. You inspired me and gave me the confidence to do it myself and it was a 110% success. Of course, the job took me 10 hours opposed to - how long does it take you? 4 or 5? The DMF was battered and needed grinding off, the pressure plate bolts were rounding off and I had to find equivalents to replace (could hardly get them off without drastic measures) and every step of the way seemed to throw something new at me - really gave me a challenge. I'm now all beat up from doing it - especially my right hand from trying to get to that evil bolt on the back of the starter motor - you know the one? How do you do this every day? Are you a machine? Big kudos to you.
Lee what a day you’ve had by the sound of it. Firstly., the main thing is you got it done 🍻🍻 Now that is a baptism of fire on your first one you get the flywheel spin. And you managed that. And secondly yes. That infamous starter bolt. Hats off to you and really glad to hear the video came in handy. It’s not the easiest job these insignia. Box a bit heavy as well.
@@WMCS You're not kidding about the box weight. I am a body builder and still struggled to wiggle that lump onto the engine. The job was fraught with obstacles, the flywheel being the worst of them all. I could have paid for someone to do it, but I am never one to say "no" to a challenge. I have a great appreciation for what you do. You make it look easy :)
If I made a video of changing out a wheel bearing I'd be on week three by now. I was gonna call this guy his reputation is phenomenal. I hope you go from strength to strength dude.
After having watched several of these tutorials of how to change the clutch on VW and Skoda models, I think I will have a go at the clutch of my 2003 Skoda Fabia this summer. Just for the fun of it. It does not seem to difficult at least when William does it. I am not shure though, if I will replace the flywheel, since i is a fairly expensive part.
Maestro Sir Kevin..............I just cannot get enough of your style ,...............er where did that part go ? you know Sir and you mend fix replace. faultlessly ! If I leaved back in Slough Id be ya wingman ! That's just it YOU DO IT ALL ON YOUR OWN, i sign so impressed, Ill be back. I handled a gearbox into a mitsi legnum 4wd v6, what a mission and ya pick up like the weigh nothing, AND YOU EDIT AS WELL , what more can I say, thank you Sir for ya time
Thats a good days graft in a heated workshop with a ramp. & with out having all the camera set up. You must have a few customers watching out the window in disbelief as you disassemble their pride & joy. Your attention to detail is dyeing skill.
Brilliant work, I wish I had the patience and dexterity to do that kind of job on the drive. Incidentally that was a very clean engine bay for a 12 year old diesel..
Good job! My friend, besides the fact that you do a good job and that you know how to do your job. Rarely encountered in other youtubers, you also have a special talent to present the work you do! In my opinion, you can easily be a good film director. Again, good job Kevin!
I had seen the other video, behind the scenes, and it seemed strange to me that you hadn't shot any video with the skoda, but as always you never disappoint.I hope I am not wrong to write I am not an English language speaker.
Hi Williams you have a very good and very performing technique, I have admired you for some time, I have seen your centering device for the clutch disc of what material is it made? Thanks for everything you share you are truly a very good professional. A hug from Verona Italy.
Awesome work, can i ask did this car have a clutch judder? It would be amazing if you could mention the fault, i may have the same on mine unfortunately
great job Kevin! here in Italy we don't have mechanics who offer a service like yours. You are great!! just one question: what liquid do you use to clean the flywheel? Hello from Italy!
Great one! It seems that the left axle shaft was changed. And for sure it needs new brake discs. It is strange a rusty bolt in the battery base. Too much condensation, maybe. Thanks a lot for the video!
Just bought an Octavia 1.8 TSi, so watched this to see just how much could be involved in changing the clutch. I’m debating doing this job myself, and I have a ramp!!! You did this on the floor!! That’s hard core! Ha! Nicely done!!
Great vid.. Just wondering what brand impact extentions and sockets you use... I've been through quite a few cheap chinese ones they round pretty quick...
I figured I found all the interesting car/mechanic geared youtube channels. CarWizard, Hoovies Garage, Precision Transmission, LegitStreetCars, Garage54, Velocity Garage, Torque Test Channel, Tatro Machine, and restore it. Always a pleasure having the TH-cam algorithm gods bless my feed with new automotive geared channels and this channel certainly fits my viewing needs perfectly.
It looks like you don't have to deal with rustwelded nuts and bolts that often? Here in Sweden, it's sometimes a nightmare, the only friend being the Induction heater.
Hi. Why do you not use a hose with a bottle to bleed the coupling? Then you don't have to clean everything with brake cleaner afterwards. Greetings from Germany.
Kevin, what kind of cordless impact wrench are you using? I have never seen in your videos how you use a gas burner and an extruder for broken pins, do you always unscrew everything easily or do you not tackle very old cars? How do you recharge the batteries for your tools if they run out during operation? Why you don't use a jack to install the gearboxes? Thanks for your videos, you are doing an excellent job.
I never use heat. Lots of wd40. Once the rust breaks off you’re home free. But slowly tighten and loosen I don’t need to recharge. I’m under there for no more than 3-5hrs. Maybe one day I’ll use a jack. For now I’m ok.
Had these guys do a clutch for me a while ago, great service at a great price, they are truly magicians at what they do from the quote, to getting the job done, a superb company team effort
I order parts myself. So it won’t be wrong. Nothing gets damaged. Anything I find I report to customer., to take to their local garage. I have one job. And one job only. To replace a clutch.
@@WMCS I find even when we order the parts they are often wrong, especially from euro parts so was curious how you dealt with it, we just have to delay the reassembly until right part comes in. Ok we would typically replace damaged oil seals, CV boots during the job as shafts are out so it makes good sense not to be paying labour twice, it's an interesting business model, tough work on the floor
The amount of corrosion on such a new car is surprising, I wonder if you could use hammer right or something similar to protect it , since it’s open to the elements
That’s it Andy. Otherwise it anchors itself on the back of the flywheel. Making a lot of effort manoeuvring it out and bending the heat shield in the process. With the flange off you can literally just pull the box out.
@@WMCS need to remember that one , not that am on the tools much these days but know some private hire taxi guys that run these, once word gets around that I'm back on the tools again the phone will start ringing 😆 Was doing ball joins on my transit Monday evening getting ready for its mot and at 9.30pn decided to do brake pipes that were 50/50 to pass so that was me still rolling about under van at 11.00pm 😆😆 dont think neighbours were to happy only good thing was nice cushioned insulated interlocking matts just bought from Halfords £20 for 12..... Keep at it mate your quality 👍👍
Kevin how do you know how tight to wind the clutch alignment tool what should I be looking for when using the clutch alignment tool ? Do I have to tighten it a certain amount or ?
I believe this is the one of the most difficult clutch and dual mass wheel replacement. You need to dismantle half of the car to get access to the clutch plate. Well done Kevin. Love your videos!
The icing on the cake was how you rolled that gear box onto your self & slipped it into position was amazing.
Superb work. Your camera work is brilliant too, shows all the detail. Top class mechanic.
This guy is an absolute soldier!
I done clutch repairs for my first year as a mobile Mechanic but I had to quit. Back breaking work. I only do the light repairs now.

It’d been parked up for a while. That bolt I had to use the bolt extractor to get it out. As the head was rusted out
Pretty much every car I've owned has had one rusty bolt in the battery box. I'm pretty sure they design them that way out of spite.
