5th gear very easy to change. Dont even need to take the gearbox out. Remove side plate of the gearbox, remove synchro and 5th gear and replace, fresh oil done. Think it Took about 1 hour Had to do the same on my van👍👍

[@moz6629]

Chris stepping up with the commentary while solo filming. Great to see. Good lad.

[@jamesmiller6977]

I had a 60 reg Berlingo which developed the same problem with not being able to select 5th gear. A garage told me that it's easily fixed by tightening a nut under a cover on the N/S end of the .gearbox (which they did). I drove that van for 343,000 miles without any other problems.

[@cillinodonnell8729]

It's nice to see Chris's confidence to camera. :)

Worth whipping the end cover off the gearbox which gives access to the 5th gear set. I've had 2 now that list 5th,both were fine after doing the nut up..

I have been told it's a common issue with these I have a 308 with the same engine and box no 5th gear and hard to get out

Love it when rob and chris have banter and make each other laugh

[@Jasonhughes258]

Chris doesn’t miss a trick. Look after the pennies, the pounds look after themselves 💰 Going to be a good little run around for someone. 👍

[@alleywatson]

I love that Chris is straight into looking for spare change for the coffees. We should have a running total for the year. 😀

[@tonyfurneaux3399]

LOL, I would like to see Rob hide a few bob in the back out the way, see if Chris finds it. Plus a few French franks just for fun. Or Rob could get back to the yard and say, eya mate, there was a fiver in this one, an I ain't sharing lol.

[@craigemery7842]

I really like the parts when you look round the salvage yards for the parts. It's interesting!

[@markplenty2631]

That blue berlingo at Kent auto Salvage looked like an ex taxi as it had a taxi meter hanging down the side of the dash. And Chris made a great job of taking them stickers off..

[@danwilliams6776]

I can't be the only one that watches every video without fail but always skips the car vertical section 🤦 it's just too long...

[@chriswhite4915]

Bare in mind these they are likely sponsored by car vertical to advertise and promote the service viewers can buy, this is an essential revenue stream for Chris and Rob to be able to take time out of their day to film, edit etc for our entertainment. I will also say, they have not gone down the route of most other channels whereby they start advertising dieting supplements and non slip bath mats or whatever which you have to give them huge respect for as im sure with the platform they have, they have been offered numerous sponsorships. I have absolutely zero affiliation with chris and rob, or car vertical but their backround checks on cars is one of the most informative ones ive ever seen and will be of great benfit to many viewers when buying a car, im sure it has saved quite a few from buying a headache already. So yes, of you are a regular viewer, you will of course find the car vertical bit of the vids a bit long winded but bare in mind that is what likely makes these videos possible.

[@danwilliams6776]

@@chriswhite4915 yeah I know, I sit through all their other sponsored ad sections to support the channel, but I just cannot stand the car vertical bits 😂 I have actually used car vertical for my HPI checks because of them, I just can't watch 2/3 minutes of it.

[@loganwatkins97]

I do that too..

[@scootyman2974]

I have the 8 valve 1.6hdi engine in my Peugeot Partner and it’s just clicked over 199,500 miles without issue. I have changed the oil every 6000 miles instead of the manufacturers recommended 10,000 and it’s good as gold. We still take it all over the Highlands without any worries. I think it’s worth repairing and would make a good van for someone.

[@timfenton5153]

Nice one Rob and Chris, nice to hear Chris say what he's doing and explaining it,thanks

[@davidcarter4913]

Was a great video again Rob & Chris and was so great too see Chris explaining more

The older Berlingo/Partner series stil soldier on....I have a few in maintenance and repair in my workshop...they are all doing fine!! And my own is 22 years old with the lovely 2.0HDIengine.......bought it for 200 Euro’s because it needed a new clutch!! I drove over 34.000km in the past 10 months and it is now nearing 350.000km....but no issues whatsoever,very economical and a joy to drive,also for long distances!! The ONLY rust common on these is the sills;I’ve just repaired my LH one.....but that is quite ok for a van of this age....

[@karencrowley955]

Another great video, loved seeing you routing around the scrap yard looking for parts, a different angle you don’t usually show.. x

[@adamlee3772]

Be a good little van for someone. With it having been used by a window blinds installer it won’t have lugged massive loads. Just high mileage. Fixed gearbox will make it very desirable. I had the use of one to do the quay crane inspections at Southampton and it was a turbo diesel. Went like the clappers and ran on the sniff of an oily rag. Only reason I wouldn’t buy one is I can’t get the drivers seat back far enough because of the cage Citroen install behind it. I’ll be keen to see how you get the paint matching under where the stickers were. Great video fellas. See you next time.

The best sticker glue remover is eucalyptus oil (get an Australian subscriber to send you a bottle), far superior to thinners and it smells a lot nicer as well. Very useful for a lot of other things as well.

I do wish you could make the car vertical bit a bit shorter though ? I know they sponsor you but it's a bit of a drag everytime ! And Chris should definitely keep all the change for a yearly weigh in just like the scrap 😉
