2005 Ford Mondeo 2.2L Diesel Clutch Replacement

[@lincspoacher5071]

A great deal of respect for Changing clutches on the floor and for making a good quality video of the task. Most people won't appreciate how difficult a job this is even on a ramp let alone on the floor. Also the knowledge you have of the different vehicle types etc. Once again ultimate respect for what you do.

[@WMCS]

Lincs Poacher Thanks for the feedback. It’s not the easiest whilst filming. All the best to you too.

[@aurelienz1422]

Hi mr WILLIAMS. I just want to thank you from France. I could change a clutch on my 2005 Ford mondeo 2.2 TDCI thanks to you. The 2005 Ford mondeo 2.2 TDCI and the 2007 2.0TDCI ZETECH videos were very helpfull. I take my time, and now it's done. The way you shoot your videos are so precious and detailed. So thanks a lot, you do a great job under a car, but an another one as much great to filming your job, cut it, and upload it on youtube. Un grand merci pour vos vidéos et votre partage! Kind regards

[@klausvomberg6233]

I have seen the video and I must say, my big big respekt for what you did. Unbelivable to change a clutch on the street , on the ground without a lifting platform. I hope to see mor of your videos with the Mondeo. All the best. Klaus from Hockenheim, Germany

Man’s a legend, I changed my csc about a year ago (couldn’t afford a new flywheel etc at the time) now just over a year I’ve had to replace the flywheel clutch the whole lot and again did it using this video on my drive 🙈 I’d have took ages without this vid top bloke

[@u187146]

Absolutely amazing, I have the Mondeo, had a few clutches done and never a popular job because of the sub frame needing to be lowered, it's usually The DMF that goes on these as you will know. Next time it starts to go then I'll be coming to you for a quote for sure. I'm not a mechanic but I'll attempt most things, slowly, you have my utmost respect for what you do and you put most garages to shame.

What a quality video I was considering buying a St 2.2 mondeo that needs a new clutch .. I’m quite handy with most fords But not a mechanicbut after watching the amount of work required to change a this part Iv had a change of heart 😂 ..however ur work is super clean and made it look so easy big respect to u 👊🏻

Vous avez beaucoup de courage de le faire dans les conditions climatiques les plus extrêmes, je ne peux que vous félicitez. J'ai une ford mondeo mk3 1.8 essence, juste pour info si on démonte le berceau, on doit refaire un parallélisme complet du fait que celui-ci n'est plus centré, sur votre vidéo, on voit beaucoup de fuite d'huile même sur la boîte, le joint spi est a vérifié et à changé si celui-ci fuit. Bon courage pour la suite et encore bravo.

Je pense devoir changer le mien aussi dans pas longtemps sur un 2.2 155ch! J'hésite entre un volant moteur bi-masse ou simple tant qu'à démonter autant faire les 2 ! Le bi-masse est plus souple et vu mon kilométrage ça fera l'affaire ! Tu es un bon mécanicien camarade force à toi 👍🇲🇫

[@calladin3]

spot on video, there a frigging nightmare when you work on some older mrk3 with subframe bolts can be horrid. great job though mate

[@WMCS]

[@calladin3]

@@WMCS i can imagine mate i brake them for parts usualy cut them when customer wants subframe but i did a clutch on a st not long back that was spinning the front passenger only way around was cut into floor not a fun job

Craig Jordan once or twice I’ve had to cut small square section just enough to fit a spanner. So you’re busy taking things apart all day then.

[@TMenduro125rider]

Just finished changing the inner slave on mine, i would have never attempted to do this by myself if it wasnt for your video (i did have a mate help me wiggle the gear box in/out havent a clue how you made it look that easy bud 🤣) although it fort me through tooth and nail with 2 subftame bolts snapping both bottom ball joints and offside driveshaft were ceased in the hub, i made the brake disk explode with a huge gear puller and naffed the 1st couple of threads of the drive shaft in the process, the nearside driveshaft fort me coming out + fort me going in despite unbolting the bracket off of the engine... other than that it "wasnt to bad" 🤣

[@WMCS]

Sounds like you had a lot more fun than I did 🍻😂.., but you smashed it tho. I was literally laughing my head off reading your message .., f***ing funny 😂 that was.. bet it wasn’t whilst you were in the thick of it tho. Great that you shared that .. good effort for tackling that repair 🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻

[@simonjohnhinton1938]

i remember owning a Peugeot 405 sri with a knackered clutch and i booked it in with my local garage. when i got the car back my mechanic told me that i got my money's worth out of the old one. the clutch was worn down to the rivets and the release bearing was just a molten lump of metal. he asked me how i managed to change gear and i said i adjusted the clutch as far as i could with a spanner but ended up having to match the revs but ultimately ended up with a bit of crunching!

[@MrUrlawyer]

Absolutely amazing

[@richardnorman1158]

When u pulled driveshaft out did u lose any oil from gearbox as just came across on mine no oil came out but ends of shafts were wet in oil

[@WMCS]

Definitely need to drain the oil out first. See the Jaguar repair on the channel. For more in depth illustrations. Exactly the same engine and platform

[@abvgdejziikl]

I'm half way there, I think the slave cylinder is broken and brake fluid is leaking. I'll see if I can replace it and keep fly wheel maybe? Anyway I will update later. Thanks

[@WMCS]

Replace the DMF. That’s why the slave is leaking

[@abvgdejziikl]

@@WMCS right, thanks, I thought I'd get away with replacing less parts. Everything was working fine until one day the pedal went down and fluid started leaking. The next day the pedal was hard again then after one press flat once more. I could feel a bit of a scratch when depressing before everything went bust. I didn't think that the dual mass flywheel could affect it but the whole kit is not that much dearer. I'll change it all. Thanks for replying so fast. I will definitely share your channel on my Facebook. Much appreciated 👍

Hi Kevin... Great work...!!!... Is it possible to change the clutch on a Mondeo V6, like you do it in this video, just lowering the subframe in the left side ??... Better yet.. Please come to denmark and do mine :-)

[@WMCS]

WedelDK 🤩😂... mate I’ll be happy to visit Denmark 🇩🇰 and to do a clutch. ... But to answer your question. Yes definitely the same procedure applies to the V6... the gearbox is pretty much the same. Only difference is where the gear linkage is attached. But otherwise the V6 has more accessibility to work from the top end. ...

[@WedelDK]

Kevin-Albert Williams Thanx. Well. All ready to change the clutch and i thought to my self, better check the rest of the Car first to be sure no surprices. Dropped a hammer clean thriugh the rear body frame. No need to work on the clutch, just buy another car 🤥
