I know I know I didn't really show the Helicoil kit Installation but I will be doing a separate video. Where I can film it a lot better So you can see a lot more what's going on

[@beany1987]

Did you change the oil and filter after you finished, I know you cleaned as best you could but any swarf or bits given these engines sensitivities wouldn't help down the line.

[@tonyprice1526]

The electromagnet idea was genius. Well done I'm sure impressed

[@Qwerty1235945]

Amazing work Leon. Your patience is incredible.

[@wirdy1]

At those mileages these are the cars that never get seen by the dealer & their techs never get to solve these problems. Hats off to you putting things right with good diagnostics & some sound decision-making on the change to a stud & nut. These are the jobs that you remember & that showcase good engineering judgement.

[@daveast01]

Did my injectors on my Peugeot 5008 1.6 diesel last year. One of the bolts snapped from the time before a mate changed one. Long story short, the broken part of the bolt which was left in stopped the clamp from pulling down the injector enough to make a seal.... so i cut the bolt down slightly which did the job.....

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

👍

[@Jonodrew1286]

When these VAG 1.6 /2.0 l seals go many people come to the conclusion it fitter error but its a design floor - the new seals are far to small for the injector and burn out - releasing the torque and causing the bolt to eventually snap. The damage can be catastrophic - The feed pipes get distorted. The leak-off pipes shear-off - the injector seals in the rocker cover split and if you are really unlucky the injectors gets slammed into the seat and clip the hole the nozzle goes into, at the wrong angle scarring the seat area - meaning you have to reface the seat and use a different washer - I have sean a head scrapped from this and Fords have the same set up….

[@simonrawle7885]

Broken bolts are part of the game some days . Just hate them days tho

[@spawntohell]

That instrument cluster @ the end with bolts nuts drill bits and missing the you know what is priceless! I know exactly how you feel about this one as things happen and never end...😅

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

😂😂😂

[@antodenn381]

Love it when you text back the comments 😂

[@RD-650]

Superb as always 👍👍👍

[@theadventuresofjavier8698]

Nice job mate Did you know Rolls Royce built Merlin’s were plagued with broken head bolts. Packard built Merlin’s did not have this problem.. True story😂

[@benbb5786]

With that milage on and the time and effort to do the job been better just getting another van. That must have been a monster bill on a end of life vehicle 😮.

[@sasunmontu]

I go without other things, to get better tools. A US$700 scanner and a US$200 bore scope, have made my back yard life far more enjoyable in the past year. These were over a year of saving, they have been worth the saving effort. I wish I had somewhere to put a lift.

[@dharradi]

Good work. Love the way you explain it. Keep up being brilliant.

[@GrumpsBarn]

..the worst part of this whole saga is the brain dead engineers who thought that putting injectors in the middle of the engine, down through the rocker cover, was a good idea....guaranteed to screw up the engine eventually, one way or another....you need a medal for sorting that mess, Leon! 😂

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Lol thanks mate

[@careyautorepairs]

Leaving it forever 20k miles for a service I'm not surprised it when on you. Be his oil pump next from all the blockages and gunk ha ha. Good work mate you did amazing for this customer.

[@TheCack1000]

One thing about this man he's a real mechanic not like the ones I hav ask to fix a injection leak and tell me they wouldn't touch it cause its a renault boo hoo to the little 😽s cats I fixed it myself thanks to the real mechanics that I watch on here like this man has learnt me alot am not a mechanic by all means but makes me feel good knowing I did and the so called 😽couldn't 😂👊

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Thanks a lot, mate. I'm really happy that videos have helped you. That's what it's all about.

[@tonyc2837]

Absolute nightmare of a job. Probably difficult to charge the customer for all the additional frustrating hours needed to complete the repair.👍

[@riinche]

man i feel you it just happened to me its a real nightmare

[@trekshogun]

Bloody hell Leon,who'd be a mechanic?like you said without the proper tools you could have been screwed by the way like ornaments on the dash lol👍

[@bobgorman9481]

Am I correct in thinking that all Diesel vehicles in Ireland are A, VW based and B , totally knackered?😊

[@lyndonwebber1389]

That is what I call a world of pain I felt it all butty .

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Thanks mate

[@webpro607]

14:30 I didn't understand what was the issue actually, why you couldn't use the same bolt in the new threaded insert? I have the same problem (same engine TDI 1.6) in my case the two injectors just popped out without breaking the bolt. so i'm just wondering should i use the same bolt or use a stud instead. Very useful information btw... Thanks for sharing 🙏🏻

[@pullman5250]

I hate this trade now been in it for 40 years there’s so much over engineered crap on cars now… and things go wrong and the customer blaming you for other peoples fuck ups . Those bolts are a nightmare they are stretch bolts and shouldn’t be used again and mostly over tightened by previous garages and when you come to take them out they break leaving you with the stress of repairing. Everything is plastic housings.fuel pipes.sensors. The list goes on ready to snap taking them out even changing a headlight bulb is a nightmare on most vehicles as well. Bring back the seventies so much easier then. Going back to those injector bolts make sure there’s no oil inside the bottom of the bolt shaft otherwise when you tighten them they will become hydraulic and will snap the bolt

[@martingardener]

Genius job! So creative. Wish you were my mechanic! Where are you based???

[@MrSeany75]

i feel your pain m8 its a shitter when it snowballs best thing walk away and have a brew and return . great videos

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Thanks mate

[@eddieMurphy11111]

I understand your dilemma i have also bitten my nails (which I do not Normally) but hey you know what it is and can put it right ,thanks for the video

[@martinkirton9608]

Love these videos :)

[@mcfcmanc]

Great patience mate ….. I’d have torched it

[@LondonCarnaval]

What a mare 🥵🥶🥵 but cool head and perseverance paid off. Well done 👏 ✔ 👍 👌

[@williamradcliffe3836]

Tenacity, shame it did not promote top hair growth the inverse of what stress can do! Good man.

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

😂😂😂😂

[@martin-jj9pe]

We all have shit job like this and why is it when we are very busy or on a Friday

[@nikkihughs]

Well done mate what a mare Thought only I had bad luck Looking forward to the next one 👍

[@flippingcarsrepairs]

Fantastic video mate 👍👍👍

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Thanks mate

[@pinkyn0se]

Car must have had sentimental attachment to that heap... Jesus.

[@promischristodoulou3681]

Pay no mind to the critics. The same fault on 2 identical vehicles can often require different solutions depending on its history and the customers personal circumstance It's the results that count. I've made do and mended many times, if used is more convenient then used it is.

[@beany1987]

That bolt was either done up with a impact gun or some one with no experience at all like a diyer. You know instantly when you thread a bolt in its not right, the previous person I suspect used a gun then a ratchet to where you can feel it getting tight then though fuck it not my problem now and left it that way for you to find.

[@bartoszk4812]

I don't understand why people moan about your expensive tools. You are a professional mechanic so you should have all the latest tools!! I just got myself a set of USPro Flare nut spanner set that I will probably only ever use once 😂😂 but just want to know if it will be less likely to round the nuts off🤔 as they do have that extra bit of surface to catch the nut/bolt all 6 sides

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

People just love to moan no matter what I say. If I say it's white, they will say it's black.😂😂

[@razvanturcu9871]

Nightmare! F****ng nightmare!

[@MyScotty7]

What causes a runaway diesel

[@colmmccabe2998]

Can you tell us the part number of the hubby tools injector lines blank kit please

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Like I said in the video, everything is in the video description. I have even left links to the exact item. Tell them I sent you and they will look After You.

[@mikestorey6242]

Hi Leon why shouldn't you have the best tools for the jobs end of the day you have the right tools. You get the customers not the others who saying i can't afford them. It's known as tuff luck.

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

👍💪

[@RumpleXstillXskin]

Is that van worth the how many days work it cost 💲🤷‍♂️

[@benbb5786]

Totally agree 237000 Kms, at that milage another monster bill could be just round the corner. It's end of life put the money into a newer van .

[@damoblake6000]

Any decent mechanic knows once 1 injector fails, you can guarantee that the others will follow shortly after. Always best to replace with new or refurbished ones.

[@Wolfpack310]

Thats a nice tool, but i have a different method of blocking injectors whit a simple little screw between the rail and injector line😂

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

👍💪

[@Wolfpack310]

@bodgitandleggitgarage I should mention that it has too be a countersunk head philips screw that fits nicely in the rail, than tighten back the line and nothing gets by.

[@rogerkretzschmar8280]

Got to ask Leon, how on earth do you price these jobs up so you're not out of pocket?

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

Unfortunately, you cannot a lot of The Times you try and cover as much as you can.But mainly out-of-pocket.That's why people just wanna do simple servicing.And break jobs

[@deanandeden]

I hate them one time use injector clamp bolts, seen a few snap from being used twice.

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

😢😢

[@JariRantasalmi-dj9gk]

Why the hell those injectors are so looong in cars,no need for that,they propaply work fine if they were shorter in cars.likes sparkplug style lenght.but always like there go thru the oilpan lenght.i think is possiply make them shorter if like.much easier to maintenange and get of and back.

[@dominickfagan4050]

Sure its still the same for parts as well as other things in life now you have to wait ages to get a new or you might not get them at all

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

I know me and it's only game worse

[@iansonnyblack2624]

Worst engine vw ever made

[@markmawson1]

Those are the reasons i keep the fuck away from them 1.6TDi's i don't mind working on the 1.9-2.0TDi's but them things are just a nightmare

[@bodgitandleggitgarage]

👍💪

[@markmawson1]

@@bodgitandleggitgarage as for the threads stretching on the injector hold down bolt that's what they are apparently supposed to do because they are Torque to Yield (stretch) bolts and only to be used once that's why they are torqued to 8Nm on stage 1 and a further 180° on stage 2.

[@zokjose7999]

Good tutorial but video goes over & over too long to much repeating
