Volvo Transmission Teardown - Major Upgrades & Kit Bashing - The 850 Project - Episode 4

[@fcpeuro]

Alright we are 4 episodes in and ready to put things back into the 850.... do you think we are going to have any issues putting things back together in the car? Anything we should be looking out for?

[@philiplee7604]

Just a suggestion... as your subscriber base would be worldwide, and your working only on European cars, it would be very helpful when given torque values to provide Nm as well, under the ftlb value ! Great video “ Dynamic duo”

[@TTURBOVOLVO]

Yes!

[@JohnnyK2811]

Yes.

[@phukyou6403]

Cory is a monster at these jobs! Big ups to him

[@fcpeuro]

Cory is as cool as a cucumber when he methodically gets elbow deep into projects like this!

[@drewcook12]

this has been such a cool series, cant wait for the next one

[@fcpeuro]

Thanks Drew glad you're enjoying it, maybe you can 3D print or scan some bits for the project someday 🤔😄

[@terrymarsh8094]

Man I can’t wait for next Friday! Looking forward to it!

[@kimegekjr5971]

7:38 Use of old bearing: Collect it with the other metal scrap, so that it can be melted and reused for other purposes..

[@PatricioGarcia1973]

Great project. Always liked the Volvo 850 and it’s wagon version from watching it on the BTCC. Following along from Argentina

[@Bumbazaurs]

Best of luck Guys on Your project! I am about to start a similar project, using 850 estate only with B5204S engine. Hughe thanks about that C70 sumframe idea, allready got it from the local graveyard!

[@fcpeuro]

Thats rad Raimonds Cacurs, let us know how your project goes, and thats clutch you were able to source a C70 subframe already!

[@LucasW.B]

Glad you see how it's coming along, I've got to change out my engine mounts in my Volvo soon too it was very helpful to see where the lower ones sit it's a great reference, looking forward to the next episode! ❤️

[@fcpeuro]

Amazing how well you can see things with the entire powertrain out 😂glad it helped Anon ymous!

[@Luke_NorseSpeed]

Excited to see how you guys go about the wiring, ecu, and the VVIS intake controller

[@fcpeuro]

We are just as excited as you haha, hopefully it comes together as "planned"

[@Luke_NorseSpeed]

@@fcpeuro I've been building my 96' 850 (non-turbo 5 Speed) for AutoX and Track use for a while so if it's possible to add that VVIS to the later N/A engines without being overcomplicated seems like it'd be worth doing. Any plans on another #FCPEuroMadness contest btw?

[@jimvandekieft6867]

You might have trouble installing the crankshaft position sensor mount after the transmission is bolted to the engine. I know I did...but I had a different model M56.

[@terrymarsh8094]

Thanks for sharing guys appreciate it!

[@fortis6215]

Great video! Very informative. I can’t wait till it comes alive.

[@fcpeuro]

Glad you found it informative Fortis 621, the day is near!

[@terryboerboom9921]

I love it when that moment comes when I switch my socket to clockwise

[@glocke2005]

Nice build! Worth pointing out that a Quaife differential remains open with one wheel off the ground though

[@ZedrateEX]

Yeah they're rubbish

[@personalphone1736]

More more more this build is excellent, I did a m58 swapped p80 v70xc

[@alexanderbroom9915]

What would the team's options have been if the synchros needed to be replaced or there was any other issues with the M56? Does FCP carry rebuild kits for the M56?

[@omarplat334]

Quaife is the best mod. Must have if you are adding power. Also will pay for itself in money saved in tire, you will actually put down power and not blow the tires off.

[@joannaatkins822]

I am enjoying this project immensely ^_^

[@rfg1757]

Hi! Do you have by any chance an overhaul manual for the M56 transmission, with the bearings tolerances and pre-loads, etc?

[@clintrea1]

If you lock tight or torque one more unnecessary bolt I'm going to go f****** insane 😵‍💫

[@equieh]

You just need to clean that transfer case

[@neo_falcon]

6:47 - What do you mean?! Same warning was on a pair of Lemförder strut mounts, which I installed naked, and they still work!!

[@fcpeuro]

Hmm, we'll have to contact the manufacturer on this one, I'm sure the guys would have preferred to work in the buff

[@Ferrexx]

volvo content or bust. we volvo ppl arent right. appease us. thanks . love ur content keep up the good work

[@richardandersson9298]

My yellow is still available. Just to pick it up 👍

[@tristanscott4118]

Didn't know there was a sequential kit for the M66... Had to Google that real quick.

[@fcpeuro]

It is oh so tempting 🤔but a transmission 20x cost of the car is a hard one to swallow haha

[@franks5651]

Great series, but why did you guys remove the V-shaped subframe reinforcement from the C70 subframe?

[@fcpeuro]

Don't worry, that will be going back on, along with another C70 Convertible chassis brace!

[@nicko6710]

great build

[@fcpeuro]

Thanks Nick we are tryin!

[@Luke_NorseSpeed]

First video of 2021: "Death has been cancelled this year"

[@fcpeuro]

We can't call it..... but .....

[@josephernest91]

That didn't age well lol

[@flipflopyup]

I’ve been installing my control arm bolts wrong this whole time. I didn’t know they were torque to yield.

[@colel9450]

What flywheel exactly is that? Awesome video!

[@dazbooker]

Can you tell me what m56 transmission the t5r 1995 manual run Was it the m56l as the t5r had speedo pick up on diff which is on the m56l The later 850r models had pick up off abs sensor so I assume they run the m56h

[@ronethridge9875]

LIKE IT TECH -GREAT /IS THAT A BEAST-LIKE ALL THE INFO-ON EVERTHING /THANKS MUCH

[@imamogluu]

Where did you find the torque values for the gearbox.VADIS doesn't list them. Theres no info on gearbox repair on the VADIS

[@christopherclaure6689]

He was serious about his 1st gear rev matching 😂😂

[@fcpeuro]

JR takes his butt dynoing very seriously

[@ardie72]

Lol...there was an advert for IPD during your video!!! Hilarious!

[@fcpeuro]

Priceless.

[@miltonwilliams2399]

If I wanted to chang the engine in my Volvo XC90 2006 2.5 non turbo what would make a good substitute

[@gofras]

Quick question: does anyone know how far can the stock 850R (Sachs) Clutch be pushed? 500 Nm or less?

[@SterlingSigurdsen]

Have a question is it better to have my vehicle serviced at Volvo as they offer Lifetime Warranty on parts and labor or find a local shop?

[@adamhunter1979]

Were can I get that dif, and will it work in an automatic!?!?!?!?!

[@celtic4668]

Hey I was wondering, where’d you buy that engine mount bracket from 12:03 ? I’m gonna be doing this myself, and would really appreciate that mount bracket

[@Stale_Mahoney]

not sure what you plan for suspension, but would not upgrading the sway bars make sense for a track oriented car? at least noticed a huge difference in cornering at speed and weight transfer on my volvo 740 and 240 i bought IPD sway bars to, think there is some other companies as well that sell for the 850

[@fcpeuro]

Stale we will do rear swaybar but aside from new bushings/grease the front will be left alone for now. We can always tweak down the road!

[@Stale_Mahoney]

@@fcpeuro smart, the 850 is a bit understeery even on snow and lift off power so a stiffer rear will balance it out nicely, a friend of mine had one as a track car, he ended up running slics on the front and road tires on the rear before he upgraded the suspension

[@robertwinston2496]

Loving the progress of this Frankenstein build. Just out of curiosity, what are those absorbent mats you are using on the tool bench and under the transmission? Would like to find something similar to use in my garage that is disposable (been using towels, etc.)

[@zzoinks]

I find those blue disposable shop towels on sale at Walmart! I'm not sure if that's what you're talking about

[@zzoinks]

Scott shop towels

[@robertwinston2496]

@@zzoinks no, I’m talking about the thicker gray pad he puts down on the bench before working on the parts. The blue shop towels I use all the time on my hands. Love ‘em.

[@zzoinks]

@@robertwinston2496 Ah, I have seen reusable, washable oil absorbing mats at Walmart too, but since they aren't disposable it's not what they used. I searched on amazon and found something called "NPS SFG-70 Spilfyter" which looks almost like what they used in the video

[@BigBrother217]

Whats the part number of the thrust bearing?

[@calebfreeezie6826]

i need help. cant find throwout bearing for my m56h

[@100pyatt]

Wish you had mods for the Aisin 6spd P3 cars 😭

[@terrymarsh8094]

To all the 850 lovers let’s go up to FCP Euro parking lot and stalk them for the final build!😂

[@fcpeuro]

😬😜🤔Would be cool to show it off at the end of the project, lets hope 2021 will allow that for us!

[@terrymarsh8094]

@@fcpeuro I hope so that would be lovely, thanks for all your great work and ma Man Kyle and the whole FCP Euro crew appreciate everything.

[@reallyhappenings5597]

Limited Slip Differential on a FWD setup? How do you plan to steer that car, my long-haired figurine?

[@Stale_Mahoney]

it is normal for fwd cars? but if you plan to go full throttle mid corner and one tire fire your way around you might expect understeer with a lsd

[@warrominator]

It's limited slip, not a 'non-slip' diff. They will be able to corner, just the wheel slip during on-power cornering will be limited

[@Stale_Mahoney]

@@warrominator exactly my friend

[@chikismasterson]

Need the p2 project

[@JohnnyK2811]

Why convert kg to lbs? Nobody does imperial anymore.

[@traintalkers]

What torque spec did you guys use for the control arms?

[@fcpeuro]

65 Nm +120 degrees

[@aidansherman641]

Wait was the free diff thing for real?

[@fcpeuro]

If we can find it, and you're local, maayyyybbbbe :)

[@cameronbradley8534]

Whats your power goal with the RN 2.4NA?

[@fcpeuro]

We are hoping for an initial 220 HP, we will see what we get and where it goes though!

[@filipsvensson8072]

Clean everything you work on! Everythings so dirty, even when you ressemble 🥺

[@alexstromberg7696]

It will just get dirty the second it's driven

[@ryanfake5229]

Love the video, how I buy a one of those hoodies you got

[@fcpeuro]

We will be coming out with some similar merch very soon Ryan, unfortunately that hoodie were our limited team hoodies for 2020.

[@rohspeed]

Why u dont sandblast the gearbox 1st🤔

[@fcpeuro]

Unfortunately, we had limited time and were not able to get it sandblasted. Our 850 is far from a show car anyway, it's destined for the track where it will certainly get dirty!

[@dummag4126]

Where is the next video??????? you have thousand video in your channel, I try to looking for, but with no result

[@fcpeuro]

Here is entire Season 1! kzbin.info/aero/PLe_--lhvXud9MhxMWRm7uvpsMoyE2i_KH

[@zsolteditor]

all ok here but the sound. Plz give the sound work to somebody who does sound. The volume of the video is everywhere. We as watchers have to constantly adjust the volume between the voice over and interviews, it is not normal. Thx

how about recycling, I know its dramatic to shit can the bearing.
