2015 Peugeot 3008 1.6L Diesel Clutch Replacement

[@gerryfinegan]

The level of preparedness is astonishing. Some of bolts were in nearly inaccessible locations. The effortless reassembly. Just beautiful to watch a master tradesman at work. Especially without a ramp!

[@WMCS]

Thank you Gerry. This particular repair and the Citroen version have near inaccessible bolts. So lots of care are required.

[@jimlondon1]

I've just stumbled upon your videos. I served my time as a diesel mechanic, working on lorrys and plant. Never really worked on cars much. I gave up the spanners to go driving JCBs and lorrys years ago but still go back on the tools now and again to keep my hand in. Good job mate, you know what you're doing. 👍

[@martinpoole1451]

You finished this one just in time before it got dark, all credit to you.

I’m glad the days are drawing out. Makes it nicer all round.

Hello Kevin, another great video of a master of his trade. I think it's well worth mentioning also, the huge effort you put in, in getting all the camera footage of virtually every nut and bolt you undo! Fantastic job, well done Sir!

[@ahmidaferhat4746]

Très bon vidéo explicatif, je le trouve plus détaillé que le vidéo que vous avez réalisé le 28 mars 2019 de la Peugeot 3008 2011 où vous n'avez pas montré la phase de montage du mécanisme d'embrayage et le voulant moteur. Je vous remercie beaucoup et je vous souhaite une bonne continuation. 👍

Thank you I did our 107 today and with your tips from your video it really helped. I could have done with that heater though as it was bloody cold. Keep up the great work mate.

Do you ever have bolts snap/become seized when carrying out this work? Happens regularly in my part of the country. For example I had all 3 bolts securing the ball joint to the wishbone snap yesterday. I wondered what you’d do in this scenario. Excellent as always. Will

[@WMCS]

Hey William. Very very rarely, maybe once every two years. I use lots of WD40. The simple trick is just break off the crust of the rust. For each half turn off, a full turn back on.

Another great job carried out in a very efficient way, have you ever done a clutch and flywheel replacement on a semi automatic 1.6 hdi C4 Picasso? I've got one to do on Monday, I've done the manual one's but never a semi auto! Probably not much difference but the release bearing looks like it has a wear indicator built in! Going to be a challenge on their driveway!

[@WMCS]

They’re about the same once you remove the actuator unit.

[@sinanmehmet2038]

@@WMCS did that semi auto job what a nightmare it was, had to reprogram the gearbox, use diagnostic equipment to bleed the clutch, and do a re learn on road test so that the car knew where biting point of clutch was, hoping to not get another semi auto c4 picasso 1.6 hdi again in a hurry! 🤣

Good job! Is there any reason that Valeo parts are used for DMF and clutch? Is it okay to use Luk or Sachs parts?

[@CarlosFerreira-lb5fu]

I have been watching your videos and I find incredible how you manage to replace clutches on jack stands anywhere. Do things usually go wrong, like a wrong part, something breaks ... and you have the problem of not being able to finish the job in the same day ?

[@WMCS]

Nothing like that. There’s a lot of planning that goes on behind the camera tho.

[@atoscomptepro3667]

hello, I really appreciate your professionalism. Is it necessary to respect the tightening torque of the flywheel? and to mount the clutch do you have to lock the flywheel? thank you for your feedback and good luck,

[@WMCS]

If unsure then yes., for me personally I do it everyday so I’ve gotten used to how much is enough .. Again with pressure plate it’s better if you lock, if it spins while you’re doing it up., it will go on the reverse on timing side with a very good chance of jumping the timing

First i replaced all engine and gearbox mounts. Then i bought new clutch kit (DMF, clutch and slave bearing). And replaced all in citoren garage. They allso replaced seal behind DMF, axle seal, new gearbox oil and hydraulics oil for gearbox acutators.

hi Kevin. another great video. I have a Peugeot 2008 2016. in 4th gear at 2500 revs and accelerating I'm getting a very low flapping, rattling nosie just below the drivers footwell.Peugeot told me it was the flexi pipe that needed changing did this but no joy,changed the o/s drive shaft but still the same.could this be a gear box problem. any help advice would be appreciated.

Not sure if possible. But if you do a recording with your phone in the footwell I can at least try and eliminate a gearbox fault. WhatsApp it over and I’ll have a listen.

Hello Kevin, Bi-mass flywheel is relatively expensive and may sometimes be replaced by "standard" flywheel. Is it someting you propose to your Customers ? As usual, your videos are very interresting. Congratulations.

I wouldn’t recommend a conversion kit. The DMF is a good buffer between the engine torque and the gearbox.

[@mrgrumpy5116]

so what's the problem with these DM flywheels, is it bad driving or bad technology .. obviously someone is making a lot of money out them, I remember when a good clutch kit was 30 quid, and you could buy a burger with the change .. now I wouldn't eat the burger of course .. I'm waiting to see how that heater copes with the snow .. what snow?

[@WMCS]

For how much one of them cost, on average £250., they don’t last the life of the clutch. The flywheel alway goes before the clutch reaches about 50% on European cars I’m noticing. But all the Far East cars I work on. Especially Honda engines. The DMF can take two clutches with well over 150k miles before it fails.

[@MarkHopewell]

I own this model of junk. The gearbox, at least on mine, was never in the reign of a kings pudding assembled correctly at the factory - the synchromesh is dreadful. The lumpy and sticky gear change from new is really irritating. And last week, I'm sure I felt the first signs of clutch slip. It's barely done 50,000 miles of careful, non-loaded driving.
