This music is so annoying .. if someone want to hear old flywheel damage can’t, and I think new one is not the same , i changed 3 times and finally put original Luk we will see how long will work properly, thanks for your work

[@icku]

Simply because there is a separate video in my channel where you can hear that sound ;)

It was so much easier when cars were rear wheel drive. You could do a clutch on a Cortina in a couple of hours on a Saturday afternoon - now there's so much dismantling to do even before you get to the job at hand. Nightmare..

[@fulanito494]

Good job! Removing the subframe is a pain. Did you change some bearing or is this play normal?

[@andyg817]

Steering rack can be left, undo anti roll bolts, torx head... 😊

[@colintx800]

Turn the music off!!! OMFG

[@ciubel1975]

This music is annoying.. even can’t hear when he test the flyinwheel ! maybe someone want to hear defective wheel ..

[@shaffno5569]

Not bad work you have done keep it up mate

[@BobMc87]

Any ideas as to how much a new clutch, supplied and fitted on one of these would be? Google search comes up around £350-£1,400.... hoping the £1,400 Is for the flywheel as well. Nice video too!

Great vid! Thanks :)

Привет колега, За да се смени уплътнението на коляновия вал трябва ли да се сваля картера и да се точи маслото на двигателя?

[@icku]

Не, сваля се без махане на картера. И без точене на масло.

[@mohammedazam8915]

I've heard it can all be removed from the passenger arch lining? Is it worth removing the whole subframe

[@garypreece7299]

i was thinking this too

[@fubsy7806]

Not sure if this guy knows what he's doing tbh end float on the dual mass ? Its rotational movement that shows its worn as the springs become worn out or broken so you loose the dampening effect.

[@icku]

U don't say? Take a better look at my channel and then comment ;)

[@CORRIGEEN71]

Is this the same engine as the fiat 1.9 multijet?

[@icku]

same, only miner differences :)

[@redseantlworld]

Do I need the subframe alignment tools? Or is tipex marks etc okay to realign? By the way thanks for sharing.

[@icku]

just use some marker or paint to mark the subframe position before removing it.

[@redseantlworld]

AllHandmade Do I tighten the bolts with compound glue etc eg locktite blue, red etc or is a torque wrench adequate to guarantee the frame won’t come undone.

[@icku]

in Haynes manual it says that you need only torque wrench so i did so

[@Danidasanic]

@@icku Hi , Can you give me the torque specs of the frame bolts please ? near the radiator , near the wheels and the 3 bolts near the steering rack

[@icku]

Accordig to Haynes -> Subframe mounting bolts: Stage 1 - 90 Nm; Stage 2 - Angle-tighten to 45 degrees; Stage 3 - Angle-tighten to another 15 degrees

[@CANERm3]

Which torx size has flywheel ?

[@seanmaco28]

Got my flywheel and clutch done yesterday on my Opel insignia and drove out of garage and my timing belt went, garage saying nothing to do with them, is there a link between the two things??

[@TheBoneo]

No

[@alexwade9797]

How come you fitted a different clutch to the old one

[@icku]

Different, but compatible :)

Как отсоединить кабеля выбора передач от пластины?

[@addya4011]

I need mine doing, do you know how much it’ll cost?

[@icku]

Sorry, no idea. This is home made years ago.

[@ziggy748]

clutch doesn't look too bad

[@bobl78]

Wow, that oil is really black for transmission oil

[@erolst66]

U don't have to remove a steering rack 😂😂
