Started my apprentiship mid 80s,used to do V8 Rover clutches for extra cash, in work did all the engine jobs,never could make bonus,whilst the " clutch " guys were, total respect on your back everyday...

[@WMCS]

Thanks for taking time to leave a comment. Means a lot coming from a fellow mechanic.

[@Rob-eg8qc]

I used to own a 1984 Rover V8 Vitesse many years ago, God knows where it is now, keep the great content up on your channel 👍

[@EZ-D-FIANT]

Yea I didnt think I had to drop the subframe looking at it, much appreciated bro, that rain looked pleasant lol, stay safe and keep having fun bud....👍👌👍

[@tonybalm1513]

It's really clever and time saving the way how you drop the gearbox onto the sub frame. This leaves just enough room to change the clutch. I have seen videos on here of people removing the sub frame, steering rack and exhaust. This looks the same as my Corsa C 1.2 petrol.

[@WMCS]

That’s it. Same thing for the corsa. No need to drop subframe. Lots of room

[@bazw1685]

Great vid, very straightforward and makes me feel a bit easier about tomorrow's clutch job, I felt your pain for the wet weather though 🙈 can't imagine how much you wished you pulled it forward just a few more feet

[@traconitide]

Much rain this day! Respect!!!

Hola,muy buenos videos de mecánica. Permíteme una consulta. Monte un embrague en un Opel Astra h 1.4 del 2006 idéntico al de vídeo que realizó. El caso es que seguí pasado a paso el desmontaje y montaje y a la hora de purgar el embrague bote dos cosas que no se resolver. Una es que no se puede purgar el cojinete de empuje y otra es que al poner en marcha el vehículo entran todas la marchas como si estuviese embragado y las ruedas no forman. ¿Podría darme una idea de que podría ser? Gracias.

[@WMCS]

It sounds like the clutch plate may be facing back to front.

[@borjavalcarcel3939]

Gracias, lo saque para revisar pero esta el disco bien, "tal como indica la inscriccion del disco, direccion hacia la caja" no obstante lo notifique al vendedor y este se puso en contacto con la marca (SACHS) y estos le indicaron que aun siendo la referencia apropiada esto solia pasar en algunas cajas de cabios, osea que me debolvieron el dinero de la factura y me indicaron que deveria comprar el original de la opel. Me parecio estraña la respuesta de (SACHS), pero por el alto coste que me ofrecia la opel octe por una alternativa que me ofrecio la misma marca, (un embrague LUK - REFERENCIA: SCH620309000. Asi que me ariesgue y lo monte.Esta vez si a funcionado.disculpa que me alla alargado pero quise compartir experiencia y ver que opina al respecto. Gracias por los videos tan interesante y la respuesta a mi consulta.

[@felixwilde2551]

Hello, really a very good job. How did you center the clutch disc and the clutch automatic? Normally the centering tools are too long in your situation and you didn't show in the video how you did it. Would be very interesting. Best regards

[@WMCS]

Hiya. If you browse through the channel on other videos I show how to mount the clutch with the tool.

[@felixwilde2551]

@@WMCSHello, how you use the tool I have already seen a few times. I was just wondering explicitly in the video (point 14:31) whether you had enough space to screw the tool with the clutch and remove it again, because it looks to me as if there is little space between the gearbox and the engine. Many greetings

[@GadgetRebel]

Excellent work and the rain trooper

[@12e2aela7]

Awesome I need to replace the clutch my car as well. It is a Meriva A 1.6l from 2006

[@georg_der_falsche3560]

Great video! Is it the same work with a 1.6 Z16XEP engine?

[@carlospiezzi4030]

Good work Kevin, thank you and congratulations.

[@WMCS]

Thank you.

[@NathanealGovender]

Amazing video! keep up the good work. Clever idea using a regular spanner for the gearbox mounting E18 torx bolt @4:13, impossible to get a socket in that space

[@WMCS]

Great that you noticed that 😁✨

[@NathanealGovender]

@@WMCS LOL, I have a corsa C in South Africa that has a z16se 8v engine. I needed to remove that mount as well when I was doing a transmission oil change.

[@angelgenissans8197]

perfect job congratulation my friend!!!

[@maciejzawadzki3076]

Mate, big respect ! Can't believe this is so quicker and easier than suspension frame dismantle method. Your method seems a cushy job, especially since I'll also be doing it on the ground. It is possible in 1.6 petrol meriva (Z16XE) ? Ta 🤟

[@philneale7290]

I had a 1.4 mervia it couldn't pull a granny off a piss pot .....cracking vid thou 👍

[@WMCS]

Phil Neale Funny. Lol.

[@rudeboi220turbo]

Did you have to drain the gearbox oil on this one

[@selfaware126]

Did you have trouble bleeding the clutch? Is reverse bleeding the best method?

[@rustlab]

what do you mean by reverse bleeding? Thanks!

[@matimati469]

Hello, is it possible to replace the clutch in Astra H Z16XEP without removing the sled?

[@kamar317]

Très bon travail comme d habitude ,mais tu fais que des embrayages?

[@shimzam1574]

hello William, My opel Meriva 1.6 petrol gearbox has a sound in it and it mostly sounds like a lose ring, any idea what could be the problem?

[@jamanitsme]

Hi i know this is a old vid,i have the same car and having reall issues,So my car wont go in gear when running,i can ony shift up,and get it in second with force,The car moves in first gear with the clutch pedal fully down,What should i need to replace?is this a master or slave cylinder problem,amd what could i max pay,allready ringed a garage and they told me it could be around 2000 euro wich is to expensive in my opinion,im not a mechanic,and did several car parts replacements,but for this i dont have the right tools,Can u give me some advice,thanks in advance

[@WMCS]

It’s pressure plate. Part of clutch kit. I can’t say much about price as it’s Euros. Hope you get it sorted mate. 🍻

@WMCS thanks 😃

Hi I have an 05 plate combo van I drove home for 4 miles in third gear stopping about 5 times, a smell burning when I got home , it was the gear selector come loose . My van still drives ok but I was wondering what repairs I would need to do.

[@josephine2639]

Manicminer the burning smell was probably the clutch

[@vaidotassakalauskas3681]

What was mileage? What is factory expected clutch life on this car and motor combination?

[@WMCS]

Nowadays about 50-60k miles.

[@Omegaman1969]

For us mere mortals this job would be a nightmare, this dude smashes it out in his lunchbreak hahahah.
