Williams Mobile Clutch Service. Behind The Scene (Week 22/03/21)

[@mxarnold]

As a mechanic i would say a lot of respect! I hope you make good money because the body probably gonna need an early retirement

[@DNT88_]

If you work smart and wear gest , you don t Gonna retirement early, plus… His body is in good shape …

[@oluseyedavidalo2420]

I'm a diesel mechanic working farm tractors and poultry/piggery for years. Working makes you fit and he's not going to have any problems if he takes adequate rest.

[@robertdavis6708]

Kevin's methodology is quite efficient if I may say so. He never makes a move unintentionally. This video is really going to help when I change my clutch on a 2013 Ford Focus. Thanks Kevin, also a nice kid.

[@WMCS]

Thank you I’m very grateful for such a nice review

[@daveawhittle]

It’s great to see you hone everything, from your clothing, tools, jacking methods, constantly evolving and improving, you can sure tell the ones you have done before too.

[@WMCS]

That’s correct dave. The new under Armour clothing are Great as it’s skin like material on the outside and soft fabric on the inside. So no grit can get through. Even the new face protection I’m using are pulsar XARC. no harmful clutch dust can get through and no oily debris can pass through the fabric to get to the skin. I’m always on the lookout for new technology. I’m trying to negotiate an exoskeleton that runs along the spine to the shoulder. Fingers crossed.

[@WizzRacing]

@@WMCS I use a Dainese back protector. That articulates side to side. As my back started hurting in the mornings..

This guy does not mess about, man on a mission. Love the work ethic and the level of skills. As a mobile detailer I put 10 hrs into a day detail, your body deffo pays for it. You do what you love and it always a bonus when it pays well. Keep these inspirational videos coming!

[@spatsny45]

To me,this is the greatest service.dont pay for towing,done expertly,you can watch the whole job a few weeks later at your living room while snacking and drinking ,and save money to boot!This guy is great.If he was here in the U.S. he could live anywhere and make a great living.there is nothing of his grade of expertise here.Salute to you kevin!thanks for the great videos too.

I've started today changing a clutch on Polo 1.4 TDI and I watched your video on 1.4 Petrol which seems similar. Except the fact the P/N I had was not correct 😡, I applied your method by puting the gearbox on my chest... OMG, it's so heavy 😱. For reinstalling it, I'll take my workshop crane 😉. I respect even more your work now ! But I'm 67, may be one of the reason 😁

🍻.,, I’m sure you’ve earned your stripes. Thanks for visiting the channel and leaving a feedback...

[@joncooke479]

love the channel bro, just completed my own 59 plate focus 1.6 tdci complete clutch replaicement. What a pig , seized nuts damaged threads and tight as you like for access as for the complete clutch kit I ended up not using the luk dual mass flywheel item as the original sachs one had less side to side movement and returned in either direction of rotatation. She drive lovely afterwards. Keep those videos coming

[@WMCS]

Good effort Jon. Saved you a bit of money tho I bet.

[@wellwh0]

nice quick jack💪

[@pcgrey69]

It might be a benefit Kevin if you explain especially with the Renault van how you deal with bleeding the Clutch. I had a guy that used to fill the slave prior to re assembly.

[@leeit2me]

that hydraulic lift saves alot of time then the standard jack/stands. good investment!.

[@speedmusic7072]

Ni cables ni aceite de caja ni motor de arranque ni selección de marcha.... Así parece muy fácil y animas a gente inexperta a intentarlo y después se ven en un problema que no saben solucionar... A pesar de esto lo que haces tiene mucho mérito .yo he cambiado varias veces el embrague en el suelo y solo y es muy duro

Have you ever had a gearbox that you thought you might not get lifted back up .

[@WMCS]

Yes. One time. It was a Toyota D4D.,, the weight was near the 199kg mark. And not long ago the new Land Rover evoque. I had to use another jack in the end.

[@Atty1958]

[@WMCS]

There’s more in the pipeline. They keep finding me them minis. Last one is a project bought from CoPart the customer said.

[@leenob]

​@@WMCS hopefully he didn't pay much for it. From what I have learnt, if a car has a wrecked clutch then there's going to be a lot more surprises to follow. Looking forward to the next video (crammed with Minis!) ;)

[@swms9679]

What a nice week (weather wise), i thought that was the owner of the bmw running around the car at first hah

There’s no plan B. It’s only a distraction from plan A.

Hi Kevin, hope you had a good easter, I was just wondering why you drop the car onto blocks of wood at the end? I'm not questioning what you do, I'm training to be a mechanic at the moment and it might be helpful to know. Thanks for the great content, very methodical and a joy to watch, I'll be picking up some tips for sure 👍

[@WMCS]

Thanks Easter was good. Spiritual times. The blocks are purely so that the jack doesn’t get stuck under the car. Just to give it that little extra height.

[@billrimmer5596]

That Red one is a big one. Not rear wheel drive yet u used power lift. Do u ever get the trans up and have to bring it down again? Great job as usual!!

[@WMCS]

That’s it Bill. The focus was a bit too low and had overlapping side skirt. So the quick jack had to come out. It’s a perfect height foe my size ,, almost like it was made to measure. Happy Easter Bill.

Cosco sell them seen them the other day in there was so tempted to get some 😬

[@wrcmotorsport2602]

Howdy. And we receive food for the soul, Thank you. Now I come with a question. 3 months ago I had a rumble after 40km / h, when I got out of gear, it didn't work anymore, only in step 3 4 5 it did. I said it was from the box, I took the box down, I changed bearings, after 2 weeks it started again ... 2 weeks ago I also changed the box, I bought another box, I mounted it and today it started again .. What should it be? Should it be a wheel bearing? But why does it make noise only when the box is engaged ... I'm bleached with annoyance ... I'm waiting for an answer, thank you very much. Health

[@WMCS]

It sounds like the wheel bearing.., to be sure 1. Wheel off the ground. Spin it by hand with one hand on the coil spring. Whichever wheel you feel vibration in the spring whilst spinning is the faulty one.

[@wrcmotorsport2602]

Thanks, I'll try that tomorrow. I don't play wheels, that roar doesn't do it all the time. And there is something else. It sounds roaring on the right line, if I turn right a little, the sound stays, and if I turn left the sound disappears and reappears as I steer the steering wheel. It tells me something is the right front bearing. Now it must be seen and checked, tomorrow I will check and after I fix the problem, I come back with an answer. I noticed you took your boy with you. Isn't he passionate about mechanics? To enjoy it is the greatest blessing, a child. Only good and RESPECT MAN

[@WMCS]

Yea let us know. It’ll be interesting to find out what that problem is. Boy is in training. At the moment learning the routes and picking up tools. 😁🐥

[@wrcmotorsport2602]

@@WMCS I will definitely answer how I solved the problem. The first time I said that there are defects in the bearings in the box, or bearings in the group. But after I mounted the second box, it still does ... that's the top. What made me think it's out of the box is that it only sounds when I'm in gear. When I release it freely, I can have 100km / h .. nothing is heard .. I can't wait to see the problem. I will let you know.

[@wrcmotorsport2602]

Reading through the comments, I saw that you own a track bike. Great, I really imagined your body, thin but full of energy (so am I, thin and 1.85cm tall) how you definitely did a hard sport. I also cycled 6 years on the road. I also went to the velodrome / track. I want to look for a Colnago frame of the steel track, I'm making steel, it has its charm.

[@davidheslop2835]

Hi Kevin, great video again and at least the weather was better. Why did you use the lift on the red focus, I thought you only use it on rear wheel drive cars. Was that a 1.0L focus or a 1.6? Which car are you showing the full job on tomorrow? Always a pleasure to watch you in action, and liked you little helper.

[@WMCS]

Hiyup David.. the focus was a 1.0l eco boost but the ST version. Packed quite a bit of punch for a litre. It was quite low and the skirt a bit too overlapping for the axle stands and the best option was the quick jack. I filmed the Msport BMW.,, was a very tight space with a massive gearbox. Just editing it now.

[@jeromeparey9712]

good job

[@brianjohnston9822]

Mmm, when you see hardly any wear on the rotors, you can take a guess as to why they needed a clutch.

[@leon543211]

nice video as always, im just curious, how do you decide wether you are using the jackstands or the lift? lift seems to be the faster method, at least thats what it looks like from the videos :D greetings from germany
