Citroen Berlingo B9 Engine Removal

[@raginganarchist]

This is extraordinary. You have a real knack for not only mechanical disassembly, but also being able to explain what you are doing. Once again, many thanks!

Thanks for the comment.

[@joaquinpuig4651]

you are doing a good job and a good video...my berlingoXTR is the same as the one you are disassembling, the only difference between the 2 vehicles is that my berlingo is new and that one is worn out...regards

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Thanks for the comment, Damaged beyond repair but i would not describe the engine or gearbox worn out, before the crash it had the potential to do a lot more miles. The new berlingos especially in higher specs are superb to drive.

[@joaquinpuig4651]

that's right my friend, the new berlingos are very good as well as my car...very modern, well equipped and work very well...greetings from Spain and thanks for the video.you do a great job...thank you friend.

Excellent video (and very useful)! Impact wrench vs breaker bar, which one is better to avoid the possibility of breaking loose the captive nut?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

Hi there, thanks for the comment. Ordinarily the impact wrench is the best for stubborn bolts, if the captive nut had a good dose of wd40 or oil around it and left overnight it would definitely help, wire brushing the threads of the bolt that are behind the nut would also help it spin off easier. Breaker bars ive tried in the past expecting them to be easier on the captive nut but the bolt will still unthread to the same rusty patch of threads and require more torque than the captive element can hold against. On the plus side they can be replaced thanks to the hole to reach them, on the likes of the 406 it was necessary to cut the chassis leg open to get at the nut and weld the area back up. Copper grease is definitely useful for reassembly.

How long did this take you in total? I am looking for a new engine in my partner van and wanted rough guide on time?

[@peugeotCitroen2CV]

I was not really working to a schedule, i parked this berlingo on axle stands and just tackled it a few hours in the evening after work. Ive had engines out in less than a day, this isnt too bad a one to remove. As im not a mechanic by trade i dont really record the time jobs take.

@@Coin28-o9r I do not know how long the manufacturer takes to assemble these, i would imagine it is something that they keep a close eye on to improve the production efficiency but its not something i would not be able to comment on.
