HYUNDAI i20 CLUTCH REPLACEMENT... 96 YEARS OLD AND STILL GETTING ABOUT!!!!

[@plhworkshop]

A proper mechanic doing jobs the correct way, why has this channel not got 300k+ subscribers? I'd watch this over some novice botching jobs on their driveway any day.

[@andrewmooreandrewrmoore7615]

So true. You Tube is full of people making a hash of working on cars.

[@brianmullins5824]

Well said bud👍👍👍

[@thejoneseys]

Doubt I'll be driving at 96, I'm half that and already sick and tired of driving in this country 😂 Top job though fella. Always a pleasure watching your videos 👍

[@Doctor00-786]

I seriously thought you will take a day off today, that’s pure dedication mate. Cracking job as always.

[@stevemainwaring7598]

Baz you are a true trooper, glad a good sleep and a little medicine as helped you, have that good rest tomorrow, another great video, if only the people who's cars you work on knew they have a master at work, clean and conscientious, and a true grafter, im sure they would really appreciate it, nice one have a good Christmas with your family 👍

[@MarkGriffiths-t2c]

I agree. A proper mechanic doing proper jobs. I watch Baz every day. A totally honest guy. Top marks to you sir. Have a great Christmas.

[@bazmeredith]

@@MarkGriffiths-t2c thank you buddy I really appreciate this, all the best 🤙

[@simonbailey2151]

Have a relaxing weekend Baz and get well soon!

[@J2yy.]

i'd love to of had you as my mentor through my apprenticeship, you're an inspiration baz!!

[@jamesward5721]

Working on a M5 today & doing the plugs involves more dismantling than doing that clutch Baz, lol.

[@ANDY-we7mr]

Baz,hope you're well good video by the way thanks for sharing that very well explained just seen that on you tube alldater now directs you to you tube think I be getting Auto dater 😊

[@danielflack7902]

I've used the clutch plate and pressure plate edge aligning method when I haven't had an aligning tool to use. Works a treat.

[@rhysevans9611]

That is all i do. I've never owned a clutch alignment tool and done tons of clutches fine.

[@MrGrasshorn]

Same as , a good eye a Rooney never failed me......

A very Happy Christmas Bas and all your family🌲🌲🌲

[@Pete-in-Essex]

Looks like a sensible and straight foward car to work on. Good stuff Baz.

[@tomcurran65]

Handy little cords with the ratchet, I use bungee cords but they are always a little overstretched. Get that shopping done, I can just imagine Mrs Baz's face when she gets a Pichler tool set 😆

Hi Baz, ive enjoyed your videos this year, merry Christmas and i hope you and your family have a great new year 👍

[@jDaniel5721]

I've never seen a transmission jack that looks like that but it works surprisingly well 😮

[@ifoundmytv]

Love pulling the box on the i20s, any hyundai/kia is a joy actually. Every single one I've done has been straight forward with no unnecessary faff in the way 😂. 1 tip though for when your filling it, put Dexron 3 ATF fluid in and your customers will thank you for it 👌

[@GhostLead65]

Really? in a manual box?

[@ifoundmytv]

@GhostLead65 indeed. At lower temps, dexron 3 flows better than manual oil making gear changes smoother and ensuring the gear sets get coated faster. At higher temps it holds its viscosity better than "manual oil." The ATF also doesn't have any additives that could potentially eat away at the syncros.

[@khalidacosta7133]

@@ifoundmytv If there were no drawbacks... the manufacturer would have used it from factory fill....

[@-DC-]

​@@GhostLead65Not uncommon for Manual Transmission to use ATF believe it or not, I'd always stick to what the Manufacturer Recommends though on a Customer Car.

[@ifoundmytv]

@@khalidacosta7133 the manufacturer also decided not to use corrosion proof hardware... I've been a gearbox builder my entire mechanic life. I've filled thousands of manual boxes with Dexron 3 and done dozens of tests (with my own vehicle) and I haven't had one issue using the ATF in a manual.

[@gixxercorona]

Great job baz, helping out the old boy , but take a beak mate , helps the soul

[@darrenhearn1365]

Nice job. Totally agree with re-using clean gear oil.... just changed a engine with a s/hand one on a renault master lll, customer on a budget so all through a fine filter mesh, re-uesd gear oil p/s fluid & anti freeze 😊

[@bazmeredith]

@@darrenhearn1365 the oil is fine and I know it's easy for people on a keyboard to say just change it, if it's clean and no metal init it's going back in, if I had any doubt it would 100% get replaced

[@audibell]

That's a very good age to still be driving that is really rare

Great work as always,cracking💪

Great job Baz that one looked so simple to do.

[@wackey3455]

enjoy the day of tomorrow baz

[@AJ-qn6gd]

An elderly driver up my road owned a certain make of car and told me that he wouldn’t buy another one as he had three new clutches in 18 months ! He was a bit deaf and used to reverse off of his drive at about 4K revs slipping the clutch you could smell it half way up the road lol ! I used to think if his foot slips off the clutch he’ll probably demolish half the houses up the street !

[@mickpursell]

good job have a good xmas

Great video baz always good info well made were did u get them ratchet straps from ?

[@colinbrown3364]

Awesome Baz any links for that ratchet hook? 🤙

[@bazmeredith]

@@colinbrown3364 I'm going to have a massive sort out over the Xmas break and try get my linktree up to date

[@Finglesham]

It would have been interesting to see the mileage of the car and if it was the original clutch. A 2010 car is likely to be original if owned from new. My 2020 Piccanto is now on 62K and clutch seems fine but I am only 77 . That guy has 19 years on me . Can't believe I'll last that long. Goodness know what motoring will look like in 2043!

[@dennisharvey4499]

How easy is the clutch if you are working on the road? Do you need to pull the offside axle? Can it be done on ramps or axle stands under the body?

[@stugbroon16]

Can the pichler tool still be used if a subframe needs removed?😳🤷‍♂️

[@tomhuish6370]

Have you ever done glow plugs on these? They are hard to reach and apparently they always snap.

[@darkside8072]

You still sound absolutely full of cold buddy 🤔✌️

[@mike-s8n8y]

96 still driving 👍, wonder who is the oldest driver in Britain .

He needs an auto,had an old granny that went through 4 clutches before she agreed to get an auto.....😅

[@steveng5503]

Nice easy one for a Friday. 👍🏻

[@thindo]

😂😂😂"Ho Ho Ho" on the clutch

[@martynturner442]

I would never reuse any oil. It’s cheap enough to replace it then it’s done.

[@Zgurkogel]

Agreed! And you can't judge the state of the oil just by colour. Baz, please don't reuse any fluids ever. Chances of introducing contaminants when reusing fluids are real.

[@toyotatim2521]

Do the input shafts no longer fit into a pilot bush or bearing in the crankshaft? I've never done a clutch on a transverse engine....thankfully

[@oliverbeattie8666]

Where did you get them hooks on the ratchet from?? Got a link?🙏🙏

[@PhilMcDonald-g2e]

Why drain the gearbox oil ?

[@jamesallen7908]

When you remove the front drive shafts , fluid comes out of the drive shaft shaft seals if gearbox is full. Less mess this way.

[@kingofcavell1620]

Obviously 96 and mobile 💥 but bet he needs another clutch done by New Year’s Eve 😂

Ha , Ha

Bet the owner is half deaf - and reves the balls off of it to pull away - Its not MPG its CPG - (Clutches Per Gallon) !!! LOL

My old uncle was as deaf as a post and went through a clutch in less than twelve thousand miles

[@GhostLead65]

Oh you can smell them clutches haha.

[@bazwatts]

Hey Baz im completely off topic could i please ask your opinion of the BMW 1.5 diesel engine reliability. I have the oil and filter changed every 5k currently at 50k milage im just wondering will this help with reliability and when do i need to consider changing the timing chain. Is it something you could do for me please..
