Best 86 clutch instructions on the internet! So many helpful tips!

[@newt2600]

Just finished fitting my new clutch on my 2013 BRZ. The little tips like tightening the driveline to the rear diff BEFORE tightening the mid point on the drive shaft to ensure no binding is pure gold. Same for the exhaust. Really awesome, love those insider tips, nicely done! And THANK YOU!

[@j-deezy321]

A big round of applause to whoever trained you you must’ve been a star student great job

[@CMAutohaus]

Star apprentice during my time at the dealership for sure. "C" student during auto college

[@wilsonseymour993]

Best transmission videos on these cars yet, well done!

[@brockszymanski6203]

Best tips I found absolutely anywhere on the internet, I’ve been trying to remarry my transmission all day to no avail after trying and dropping it back down and checking the clutch disk alignment 5 times and all that until finally this video helped me in minutes. Thankyou so much I can sleep peacefully now

[@CMAutohaus]

Glad to help! Rest easy my friend!

[@camryds]

10:35 - 10:45 If you take your/customers car for a test drive and you end up with a random dog on your lap when you return, it can definitely check the weird box :’D

[@CMAutohaus]

Someone call the ASPCA! "IN THE AAAARRRRMMMMZZZ OFFFF AN ANGELLLLL"

[@jonnijames]

Top vid lad :)

[@CMAutohaus]

Thanks for the kind words and glad you found this vid useful

[@jonnijames]

@@CMAutohaus just a quick question, those 2 dowell pins on the rear of the transmission with the tang on them do they sit inside the shifter cradle the gear selector is attached to, i think you glanced over that bit, thanks in advance

[@CMAutohaus]

@@jonnijames They attach the shifter TriPod to the actual transmission.

[@tractorback76]

Any preference on the type of grease for the pivot and fork/ bearing? Guessing high temp of some sort?

[@CMAutohaus]

High temp moly grease

[@RexinOridle]

Bro. I hear rattle on idle, below 1k rpm, in neutral. But as soon as clutch pressed in, it goes away. Also goes away in any gear, or over 1k rpm. New clutch, flywheel, picot ball, fork, springs and all seated right. XClutch XKSU24590-1A

[@CMAutohaus]

Really common is the fork moving side to side and hitting the throw out bearing. Easy way to duplicate the noise is A/C on and at low idle. Aftermarket parts like the clutch can make the noise louder. If this is the case, I dont think there is anything to worry about if everything was assembled correctly.

[@brandongreen2195]

I recently replaced my clutch and now when I start the car I can’t run through the gears. The gear shift won’t move but so far. Please help

[@CMAutohaus]

Clutch friction disc may be on backwards or you have a bad ACT clutch out of the box

[@brandongreen2195]

Thank you. It’s weird when the car is off I’m able to shift through all gears. Only when I start it up, I can’t shift

[@18at3]

What type of grease do I use on the pressure plate?

[@mrmikko1819]

I’ve been trying to get the trans line up with the bell housing and it just doesn’t want to go in. I know the splines are lined up bc the input shaft doesn’t move while in gear and does when it’s in neutral. I also saw that the dials that line up my transmission aren’t on the transmission itself? One is on the bell housing and one is on the trans… idk if it snapped or if just a new design with the 2017* models. Wish me luck been jacking up the engine and trying to lift the transmission to find the sweet spot but no luck after so many hours. I’m so tired and feel like giving up

[@937wigger]

So what did you end up doing?

[@anthonymoy4471]

Does the fly wheel go back any certain way? Any thing to watch for

[@CMAutohaus]

Make sure the plate in back stays in the same position and the mounting surface clean.

[@Cryptiiix]

There are 2 longer bell housing bolts. Where do they go?

[@CMAutohaus]

Top 2. Passenger side holds in the starter

[@snowman925675]

Idk if you can help but: I have a P0020 check engine light on for the cam sensor for bank 2 sensor A. I’ve tried replacing the sensor and checked all others, Cleared the codes and so on. Check engine light goes away and comes back on. What else could it be? Possibly worth noting, the check engine light for this code did not come on until after we replaced the slave cylinder and clutch, is there anything we could have missed, unplugged, or etc that could be causing the issue?

[@CMAutohaus]

Cam codes are nightmare on this engine especially for some reason (compared to the other FA engines) Sorry I cannot be of any real help without looking at scan tool data.

[@snowman925675]

@@CMAutohaus what data do you need exactly? I can get it for you if you can possibly help

[@CMAutohaus]

@@snowman925675 I wont be able to help sorry. Best advice I can give is to get the FSM and run through the trouble tree for P0020. First check for TSBs and Tech Tip bulletins. This is exactly how a dealer tech should go through diagnosis.

[@rikosway]

Lol whole time I thought your were working on a ae86. You catfishes me

[@CMAutohaus]

CATFISH!!!!

[@gqrret]

Man I didn’t mark my drive shaft, if it doesn’t go on the same will I have issues

[@CMAutohaus]

Should not. But it is good practice. More more of an issue on older vehicles and 1pc driveshafts

[@luismanquera4848]

Bleed clucth after ? Even if i just replaced the throwout?
