Totally blown away by the absolute skill and dexterity of the tradesman./More of such You Tubes should be made available to educate the populi why skilled repairs cost what they do. As a retired tradesman myself [electrician ] I have nothing but complete admiration for this person. I am now ready for what my local garage [a very good one I would add] is about to advise me for the gearbox/clutch etc work.

[@joaomatos776]

I'm doing this in my own car. The ease how you put the gearbox in place leaves me in awe. It swore so much and the weight... Don't make me talk about the weight. Kudos... Big kudos!

[@GrandePunto8V]

What "weight"? Gearbox is only 30 kg. Adult male should handle it. And yes, I did it (gearbox swap).

[@joaomatos776]

@@GrandePunto8V amazing.

[@Sarcastic-weirdo2043]

The issue is that if your using axle stands. It's getting enough bend in your arms to lift it depending how high the stands are. Or lifting it from above but then you struggle to line up the splines then fingers get tired. I ended up lifting it up above then get someone with a jack to take the weight so then it can be lined up and pushed back on with ease 🙂

[@Dan-pj6sj]

Fantastic video, thanks. 2 week wait to spend between £4-600 on a new clutch and I did this yesterday myself for £80! Sore as hell this morning and you made that refit of the gearbox look much easier that it looks!! Strapping the heavy end up to the battery tray area and having a family member take the slack made it slightly more bearable but really happy I tackled it. Thanks so much. ❤

In case of Punto it actually is easy. Perfect car for DIY job (anything, engine, suspension).

Grande IS very easy car for DIY hobby repairs. Including gearbox, clutch, suspension (everything), head gasket, alternator swap (with A/C), you name it. Comparing to other, more modern brands/models, where things get tricky fast.

great vid mate, it must take the same again to film all this then do the work! I'm gonna change both my main engine mounts before i look at changing the clutch again, see if that stops the over vibrating on start-up? I'm hoping it works with the clutch only being a couple of eyars old and near enough no use in that time.

[@WMCS]

I had a good look at the flywheel. Unless it’s cracked I don’t see it being warped It must be the mount or something.

[@peshoracing]

That video is absolutely perfect, great job!

[@GrandePunto8V]

Nope. Most common mistake is not replacing the lever/fork and plastic bushings (bronze ones are rare). It will shorten the lifespan of the new clutch (release bearing to be precise, will be killed prematurely).

[@Mike_5]

Clutches are an optional extra in Fiat cars (especially ones that allow you to change gear ...)

[@WMCS]

Funny that 😁

[@qwertyuiop2895]

Yes, Grande/EVO has fairly weak clutch (especially release bearings).

Greta work, and i was replacing the clutch on my Punto and snapped one of the pp bolts, is it worrying or can i use it with one bolt less ?

[@WMCS]

What’s a PP bolt.

[@leonardsoumi6328]

A pressure plate bolt

[@WMCS]

Nooo.,, you have to put all the bolts. Otherwise the plate won’t be fully pressed and you’d have a slight judder whilst pulling off.

[@leonardsoumi6328]

I will have another crack on it tomorrow cuz i already put everything back together. But do you happen to know the bolt's size or a part number maybe i can oder them ? And the clutch pedal is not going so smooth back up after stepping on it. Much appreciated. Thank you man

Hello, i have same car, but 1.2 petrol engine, new clutch kit is recently putted in, but i have small vibrations (shaking) on "bite" point ,while releasing clutch pedal when i want to start from first gear or reverse ONLY with slowly releasing clutch pedal without adding gas...maybe my car cant start going smooth without adding gas, only on clutch, but if can, what causing this problem, is clutch kit bad or can be some mechanik mistake...i noticed you never resurface flywheel, and my mechanik told me about this vibration it will need time to new friction disc adapt on old flywheel who is not resurfaced....is that reason for this vibration and how much time or kilometers it need to adapt on it...thanks

I have an urgent question how to remove a box pegeot 406 2.1 109 ch 12V The box is free but it does not come out answer me if you have the answer

[@jemmace2586]

it can't be free if it won't come out, get yourself a telescopic mirror and have a look around the side it fits to the engine, transverse or longitudinal? OR get a Haynes manual for your car and check you've done everything you should've to remove it. It takes a lot to work on a car and successfully repair it, this is all part of the process. Good luck though!!

[@nikolasvelezis3755]

Maybe the clutch bearing is stuck on the plate

[@lehbibahmed5361]

Jem Mace The box And free I mean here I have removed all the bolts The box it spreads 5 cm and it blocks but they say that the system is not but there is a single motor 12 V motor

[@WMCS]

That’s because it has a reverse pressure plate. The thrust bearing is still attached to the pressure plate. You need to pull the clutch fork out.

After watching this i might have a go at changing my gearbox when the diff bearings finally go 🙈

[@GrandePunto8V]

You could replace the differential only, laying under the car. But it's inconvenient (cleaning, using adhesives etc. to install the diff cover/housing back in place). Diff is a separate part, obtainable (used good condition). No need to throw away whole gearbox. Before the "bearings go", you can try to adjust pre-load, there is a washer/spacer under the short axle seal housing (4 bolts holding it). Range 2,00 - 3,00 mm if I remember right. Steps 0,10 mm. Install next size bigger (thicker). Don't wait until something really "pops" (then yes, you will be forced to replace entire gearbox). General tip: don't start the engine without axles installed. Differential parts ("gears") can pop out and lock the diff = you will blow the gearbox apart.
