I can not imagine how could you make this video. To put camera always to perfect spot etc. Exceptional indeed.

[@handle433]

Amazing patience I believe! It’s a great video for sure!

[@Ronan448]

Very helpful video, I have a 2012 mazda 3 with the same engine and the flywheel failed. I decided to replace it myself with help from my father even though I haven't done it before and saved myself hundreds in labour, cheers.

[@ardeleanrazvan6270]

I didn't notice to put the clutch oil back. Beside that, very informative video. It helped me a lot to make an idea about how should I do this job. Thank you. Greetings from Romania.

[@anthonybeech676]

Awesome video, can really appreciate all the hard work that goes into a clutch change, not to mention all the camera work too 👍

[@WMCS]

anthony beech thanks a lot for the feedback and for visiting the channel... I’d say the camera work takes a bit of time.. but it’s a great way to share for the DIY mechanic ...

[@tiagomagalhaes1009]

AMAZING. ITS AN ART. MANY THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS. I have to try to change mine on a 407 1.6 HDI. Your videos give us motivation and know how. Jee that engine has so many oil leaks .....Many Thanks Kevin

[@WMCS]

Thanks for a great feedback ... Ooo the old 407..😁✨..,, gotta love them.

[@ghiarossa]

I in one day I mounted it twice, I put the clutch backwards ... haha. You are very good

[@cseles81]

Excellent! It helped me tremendously lot yesterday in replacing the clutch on a 2010 Focus 1.6 tdci. It is a complete video for the clutch. Though, replacing shaft oil seals makes sense, when you invest so much work. It is also better to completely remove the shafts for safety and more room to work.

[@WMCS]

Gusztáv Oláh glad to hear the video came through. Thanks for the suggestions ...

Never new clutch change was so complicated. Hard work

[@WMCS]

Shirazul Hoque it can be quite in depth. Hence the price.

Eres muy bueno mecanico, me gusta mucho tus videos y aprendemos mucho de ti. Felicidades

[@fuzzybrain8274]

Brilliant. Very informative. Thank you for your forethought. May I humbly suggest using a work light as a "fill light" to help with the contrast issues the camera has with the daylight/engine bay?

[@Hsfgd08]

Nice 👍😀 I need to know next: how clean is throttle body of this kind of model and has it separate filter-element or particular fuel filter near by somewhere fuel tank at the bottom of the car?

[@miladinseratlic4565]

this is insane how much work is necessary only for preparation and later putting all together . BTW 19:00 there are easier ways! :D

I'm working in my grandad's 2.0 TDCI. I am very glad its not as oily as your tho

Aynı araçtan bendede var güzel anlatım sonuna kadar izledim elinize sağlık

[@cdward1984]

Hello Kevin. I'm stuck on the bastard shaft removal, it doesn't want to release from the housing like yours did in the video. When I move it slightly forward and back it is hitting something ? :/

[@WMCS]

It’s probably net getting past the C clip. You have to really hit it out with a chisel and good hammer.

[@cdward1984]

@@WMCS cheer bud. Waiting for reinforcements with bolster and bigger hammer 😁 🔨

[@elzrinja365]

So you need to drain the transmission oil or is it possible other way?

[@galaxyb1103]

Amazing job, thank you for these informative videos. I'm looking to remove the gearbox on a 2011 volvo s40 with the D2 diesel engine. Do you know if i need to remove the sub frame or will there be enough room to slide it out? It's a 6 speed manual. Cheers.

[@WMCS]

If it’s an s40 petrol have a look at the Ford Focus video on the channel same engine and set up ... S40 diesel have a look at ford transit connect video same set up and engine.

[@galaxyb1103]

I have taken the gearbox out, no need to remove or loosen subframe, plenty of space to remove the gearbox. Thanks!

[@andrewrussell5944]

Does anybody know how many hours labour to change a clutch on this model?

[@valentinvali3307]

hello, what's better? for focus 2 1.6tdci? volant luk si clutch sachs? or sachs steering wheel and sachs clutch?

[@mackiersturbo]

I have the 2009 Focus 2.0 tdci cc is this basically same procedure as this 1.6 or is it completely different? Just came across your videos excellent work.

[@loll1974]

You da man well done

[@ianhill20101]

Can a mk 2.5 110 tdci dualmass be converted to singlemass ? Ive got mine on 135 thou and it needs its 4th dual mass my dad dont help

[@unregrettablelife9424]

Does this has a concentric slave cylinder? If so how did you bleed it? Before or after you install the gearbox back to the engine?

[@yoyo895]

Great video! Thanks! When you removed the air box at 12:34 , there was a rubber pipe still attached? How did you disconnect it and what is it?

[@WMCS]

yoyo895 it’s just a rubber breather pipe. It’s only a fit in a small nozzle in the air box

[@danielshearer5016]

hello sir 3 questions for you- 1 is there any problem following you r silent videos- 2 Is even 1 of these videos specific to an sp1-ib5- in america an ty for showing a lot.

[@WMCS]

[@cdward1984]

Hi Kevin. I am so glad I found your videos! Is it the same procedure for the 2005 cmax 1.8 TDCi ? If so I hope to refer back to your video while doing the slave cylinder this weekend 🙏 Much appreciated Craig.

[@jacknapier1776]

Hi Kevin. Why Did you removed the right hand axle? It's really needed to perform this job?

[@louislouis4417]

Hi need to do mt partner's 1.6 tdci clutch.... do you have a video of taking the Acutal clutch of ?...this video just showed removing the gearbox or am i missing something?.Thanks

[@WMCS]

John Layda I think if anyone is gonna attempt to do this kind of repair they need to know how to install a clutch already... otherwise I can go very wrong. ..

[@georgegeorgel7254]

After all this process did u top up gearbox oil and clutch bleeding?

[@WMCS]

Oh noo. Thanks for pointing that out. You’re the best. 😉

[@paulnpijrr]

what jacking point do you use to lift the front axle?

[@WMCS]

Paul Negrea just the side seal or mostly centre of sub frame

[@paulnpijrr]

@@WMCS is the subframe strong enough to hold the vehicle`s weight? I do not want to bend it..

[@WMCS]

Paul Negrea yes it is. But stay close to the reinforcement holes.

[@mikesmithroller]

Great video, thanks

I like the abdominal curl to lift a gearbox into place.....

Fucking legend! Good job!

[@askullinconnemara]

Hi great video thanks. How long a job from start to finish ,wiĺl probably be doing one shortly with a noisy release bearing.

[@WMCS]

askullinconnemara If you know your stuff pretty well. You’ll be looking at about 5 hours. There is one bolt between the gearbox and the exhaust. That alone will set you back about 40 mins ... happy to help with some advice

[@askullinconnemara]

@@WMCS thank you

[@zachaphina3140]

How many speeds is this gearbox?

[@WMCS]

Some 5 some 6.., hard to remember which one this was .., but gearbox all the same.

Does it play belly flywheel?

How much cost cluch parts and how much miles has the car? My car has 203000km on single clutch, soon i must replace it.

Hi Kevin , getting addicted to watching your videos 👍, looks like a million miles on the clock with the state of the engine ?

How to bleed the clutch?

[@peterg3661]

Least the bolts were easy to undo with the amount of oil that thing was spilling out the engine

[@WMCS]

Peter Griffiths Very true. I was quite pleased 😃 when I saw all the oily muck.

[@Adam-os6sv]

Hi mate I was gonna attempt this myself as I fix my car and most the stuff on my own but this is abit out my league how much do you charge for this mate if you don’t mind me asking

[@WMCS]

Adam Sedgley for this particular one. With the DMF and complete clutch kit about £550.

How much would this cost

Propper grafter you! What is the weight of the gearbox? 💪 Sexy move putting it back in. :P

[@WMCS]

😆😂..,, roughly about 50kg I’d say.

Is it the samme process on af Volvo v50 1.6D 08? Need to change mine within the next few weeks. 😅 it's slippin. 💸💸

I have a c max 2.0 tdci 2011,is the clutch the same as this one ?thanks

todoran marius it should be very similar. But sometimes there’s slight discrepancies on the thickness of the pressure plate or the diameter. Best to go by the registration for the parts. But the fitting process is very similar
