I am Japanese. This car is a Japanese car, but few people ride this car while maintaining it in Japan. Such videos are rare in Japan and are very valuable. I will watch this video tomorrow and replace the clutch myself. Thank you very much for making such a video.
this is awesome to see. Thank you for this video. no unnecessary talking or screwing around, just straight to the point and exactly what i wanted to see. Thank you
I pretty much followed this video step to step to do the job. This video is amazing. A couple of suggestions. First, remove the long bolt that holds the engine to the mount before removing the bolts that hold the mount. The bolts that hold the mount are really tight and at a small weird angle. The engine will drop a few inches if you remove the long bolt first allowing much easier access to the bolts that hold the mount. I used two jackets to do the job. One jack to support the engine when the mounts are removed and the second jack to lower and raise the transmission back into place. It was easy to position transmission back into place using this technique. Make sure to use a bunch of baggies and label everything! I had to use a small screwdriver to slowly pry the axles out of the transmission while rotating at the same time. I tried the hammer and chisel method he used on this video and the axle wouldn't come out. Keep the axle nut on until the bolt is mostly out of the wheel hub. I bent the first couple of threads on the axle bolt and the nut wouldn't go back on when I was reassembling everything. That was my biggest error. The whole job took me two full days.
This is such a good video it made everything so much more easier and you did it all with out talking or subtitles Haha truly amazing You don't know how long I've been waiting on a celica clutch replacement video. Thanks man!
@@WMCS it's been years since I changed a clutch so I wanted to know what I was up against with the Celica. Your video showed every detail and was excellent.
Great video mate, best part is when you man handle that transmission back up 🤯💪🏼 I’m currently in the process of doing my clutch your video was inspirational, Just liked and subscribed🤙🏼
Thank you for this video your awesome...im going to school for automotive and we haven't did the transmission class but thanks to you i can now do my own 01 Celica GT
Quick question: did you need to remove the starter? It looks like you left in place. This is exactly the video I was looking for. Every step of the way. No BS. No talking. You show every step of the way. I just bought a light flywheel for my Celica and clutch and this answers all my questions. Thank you so much.
I cant belive you did any of this with 0 talking or swearing! You must have a calm mind. Great video mate, must have some guns to lift all that in place! Id be shouting for the ambulance 🙈😅
Hey this video was really good because I want to get a manual but I don't want to pay a ton of money to get a clutch replacement for it but i would like to know if this video could double as a transmission swap or is there extra steps involved
I can't put the tranny back, I am not a strong man to hold it like you do, Its frustrating and my wrist going nuts, I've done Subaru clutches before but this time I m loosing my mind, anyways, thank you for the amazing video.
@@WMCS I did it!!!! So happy, I didn't lift the car on stand jack high enough, so I had small room to work. I also used my knees to help lift. Merci beaucoup !
Rick Kenny from the stages. Hope you’re keeping well. it’s a 1/2 drive. But I use drop down adapter if I need to get to 3/8... Thanks for visiting the channel...
Finally got round to doing my clutch replacement here in OZ and I'm in no rush to get it finished as its now the middle of summer and very hot. I wanted to know about the starter motor. From what I can see from your video, you only removed the bottom bolt from the starter motor. Is the top bolt for the starter one of those on the other side and were you still able to remove the gearbox without actually removing the starter?
JPIW great to hear from your side of the world .... the starter doesn’t need to come out ... there’s just that bolt you’re referring to. It needs to come out as it goes through the bell housing. The back one doesn’t make it through. It stops on the engine block. ... Enjoy your warm /hot Christmas and hope you have a cracking new year 🥳✨🌟..
What’s the signs of a bad clutch? Just picked one up. Minor grinding into first but won’t move an inch in any gear. Heard clutch or gear box? Any way to check fluid. 2001 celica
I am having the absolute worst time trying to get it back onto the block. I’ll get the main shaft into the clutch disk enough to hold it but it won’t slide in despite the grease being there. The dowel pins seem to line up but won’t slide in either. I’ll use a bolt to squeeze it together but its still cockeyed. Any tips?
@@WMCS I got it figured out. Appreciate it homeboy. Ended up being that I didn’t align the clutch disk correctly. Damn engines without the pilot bearing don’t make it easy to freehand align it
@@krikri3387 Just reading through some of the comments and noticed yours. I had a similar problem with a 1993 very late gen 5 Automatic Celica and after taking it in to Toyota, it actually turned out to be a faulty little solenoids inside the gearbox which controls the hydraulic oil flow. After they diagnosed the fault, I decided to do the repair myself which took about an hour all up and required hardly any work. There are a couple of the solenoids which are accessed by taking off the gearbox sump pan. They are held in with a 10mm bolt and a push on electrical connector. After draining the gearbox oil and removing the sump pan, I just put a 12V supply straight on to each solenoid to test if they were working or not. One clicked every time I powered it up whilst the other was completely dead. I swapped the faulty one out for a new one and the gearbox was back to full working order. Not sure if the gen 7 2000 auto box is much different but the gen 5 and gen 6 auto boxes are exactly the same. If it is that, you just need a new sump gasket and hydraulic oil as well as a new solenoid. Check out this other video for more info th-cam.com/video/FnFFqAQKdUM/w-d-xo.html
@@krikri3387 Yes, the more I think about it, mine had exactly the same problem as yours. Sometimes it would be OK which was the solenoid deciding to work for a few days but then it just stopped working and I had the problem all the time. I believe they're called Lock Up Solenoids and are widely available on ebay or elsewhere. I now have an ex UK 2005 gen 7 manual transmission which I brought with me to Australia several years ago, hence the need to now replace the clutch.
Hey Kevin is there a pilot bearing on these 7th gen celicas? I’m trying to install a Exedy stage 1 clutch kit. It came with a pilot bearing but it doesn’t seem to fit in any way. It seems just a bit to big to fit in the hole. Your videos shows everything except for pilot bearing part. Please give me some advice ASAP.
Hey Kevin is that a great or gets your working on? At the moment I’m trying to take my transmission off of my 2000 celica GTS, I’m having real trouble trying to take the back transmission mount bracket out. I got the top bolt loose but I can’t seem to get to the bottom two bolts. It’s such at a weird angle, it seems impossible. By looking at your video, I don’t know or understand how you took it off with such ease.
Use double wrenches, one 14 millimeters open end on one end and box end on the other. Use the box end on the bolt, then take another box ended wrench and slide it over the open end of that 14 milli for twice the length on that wrench to make it a breaker bar wrench.😮 there's just enough room in there.. 😉👌 😬👍 👈😶
LMAO u got that 3 ton jack holding that motor up while you're wrestling that trans with your (gloved) bare hands.🤔 I always use the 3 ton to raise that trans straight into place, just find it's approximate center and keep it steady on the jack with one hand while u jack with the other, always do it on a smooth surface (or use a piece of plywood as a runway for the jack), and when u get it up just right, it will roll straight into place.. just give it a little twist/turn and it should pop into place enough to get a bolt or two started. Doing it this way, u can get trans in and one bolt started in less than 5 minutes, that's guaranteed as long as u remember to keep engine and trans at exactly the same angles horizontally and vertically so that the bell housing and block have the same gap all the way around.😐 Its nearly fool proof, plus u can win a lot of bets that way. I have. I'd say "I can have the trans in with at least one bolt started in 5 minutes or less". Automatics are even easier.. IT IS SO MUCH EASIER ON THE BACK, as well as the rest of the body.💟 🙄👍 🤷who woulda thunk? Lol

Do you have a separate video for the actual fitment of the clutch Kevin. Using the alingment tool ect.
Excellent work! How much for you to replace mine? It's on a Toyota Celica GTS, 2003. I've got the parts.
What size 12 point socket did you use to remove the bolt that holds the drive shaft thing and the brakes?
If any time this year 2024 you come to Spain let me know. U will have a celica 2004 clutch to change. Otherwise on 2025, will change it somewhere.
In 2023 april26, took me about 7 hours as a newbie lol

thanks Kevin great video. have you got one on an engine replacement?

Hi Kevin, do you have a separate video for doing the actual clutch replacement within the gearbox. ?
Good video. Action speak louder than words. So a job like this how much will it cost?
Thanks for the feedback. Cost vary really depending on engine size.
so hw much this job will cost? 1.8 engine
Hey bro i bought a transmission but doesn't have the gear for the speed sensor (i bought in a jdm import)so how sopustoby work the spedometer?
Do these Celica's have a dual mass flywheel, or is it solid?
All the ones I’ve done so far have been solid mass.

Sounds like the clutch is completely gone based on what you’ve put down.
I am having the absolute worst time trying to get it back onto the block. I’ll get the main shaft into the clutch disk enough to hold it but it won’t slide in despite the grease being there. The dowel pins seem to line up but won’t slide in either. I’ll use a bolt to squeeze it together but its still cockeyed. Any tips?
If it’s made it on the spline. Use two gearbox bolts. Opposite side to each other and incrementally do them up. It will slot itself in.
@@WMCS I got it figured out. Appreciate it homeboy. Ended up being that I didn’t align the clutch disk correctly. Damn engines without the pilot bearing don’t make it easy to freehand align it
