I did all this on my P1 S40 a couple of years ago. Complete car transformation! I’m so happy with it. Also I’m glad I don’t live in the rust belt. 😂
@ghassanalfarra89357 ай бұрын
So did I on my P1 S40, Bilstein shocks, Sachs coils, and Meyle HD bushings, rods and control arms .. the only bushings I skipped replacing were those of the rear trailing arm, and I regret that 😠 they're definitely worn out but replacing them is a huge hassle. I'll have to gather up some courage and get them done. I've already bought the special tool.

Curious why ceramic paste and not anti-seize? (For both the strut and tie rod)
@fcpeuro-media7 ай бұрын
Mike lives in fear of anti-seize , Ceramic paste not only lasts as long and protects, but also wont follow you and your family around for 3 weeks after using it.

is "Volvo Nut - Genuine Volvo 987885" in the parts listing used as a substitution for the Meyle Control Arm ball joint nut?
@LGP21127 ай бұрын
This is amazing. I wish it had been done last year when I did mine!! ;) One question that I hope someone at FCP can answer is about that foil-like heat shield around the whole rear of the exhaust. Mine is starting to fall apart (MI winters...) and I CAN'T find any part number or a decent description for those. Thank you!!!

Tried to get a line on some of the tools used during the install. Tough to do. Would appreciate a link. Thanks!

- what did you use on the inside of clamp for strut? Is that the ceramic paste/anti seize? - does one not need a spring compressor to remove coils on these struts?

Love the videos but Meyle? For real😢 6:00 in Europe we just use 400+ mm pipe wrenches to deal with it. You have all the space around and use 250mm knipex.

I know you can slow down the video, or pause, nevertheless it would be useful to have some shots without hands being in the way, zoomed out& in so you can see the stuff better. Even for marketing reasons, pause to show each new replacement part in detail. I like the older FCP camera jobs a bit better. Personally as a customer, I would appreciate more educational approach over the entertainment. Great job nevertheless, thanks.
