Hi Kevin, just wanted to thank yu for your videos, thanks to your detailed instructions i was able to perform a clutch replacement on my neigbours caddy 2013 1.6 tdi 5 speed manual.During this it was -10 but if you work and sweat a little bit you dont feel it.I have greate respect for you doing this in those envoirements, i needed 10hrs for this clutch , nomally as a full time job i would be able to do a swap every second or third day to regain power levels. I wish you the best for the future.

Just done dual mass flywheel and clutch on 07 passat 1.9 with 215000 miles on it. This video was priceless. Saved me £500 labour. Took my time and with the other jobs, slave cylinder, cv boot, ball joint, anti roll drop links and engine oil change it took the day. Brilliant. Keep up the great videos. Efforts greatly appreciated. By the way, You made the gearbox look much lighter than I did!

This mechanic clearly works-out judging by his strong athletic and physical appearance which would certainly be a great advantage when undertaking this element of work as it looks very labour intensive and certainly not for the faint hearted or physically challenged but I like others am going to give it a go after analysing this very informative tutorial despite no commentary which some KZfaq up-loaders prefer to work in silence and may I say a very big thank you to the 'masked mechanic' for this great instructional and informative video, but he makes it look so easy and I am under no illusions the job will go as this smooth for me! And once more thank you again sir for taking the time and trouble to pass on your mechanical skills/knowledge to the world 👍

Absolutely stunning work. Master of Arts and engineering in my view. Thinking of doing mine…you just gave me confidence. Hope it remains there when I’m ready.

Great guide, used it to change the clutch and flywheel in my van recently, very informative.

Thank you from Germany for this great video. I did change the clutch incl. dual mass fly wheel following this video. Took me a „little“ bit longer than 53 minutes, but it worked out. Two remarks: for a self-made change it might be easier to change the clutch together with the dual mass fly wheel pre-mounted, for example from Sachs. Than you don’t have to use the centering tool. And the second one at 34:15 you first mount the bracket for the tube to the slave cylinder and than at 36:10 the holder for the gear shift. I think the other way around is better, as you cannot reach easily the back-end screw due to the bracket of the tube for slave cylinder in front of it. But again thank you from the other side of the Channel. This video saved me a couple of euros.

Just finished replacing my transmission and clutch using this video. Super helpful, learnt a lot. Thanks mate. Now I gotta figure out why it won't start 😂 maybe I forgot to plug something back in

loved watching this one kevin not a bad looking caddy that lol😂, hey the bottom ball joints put up a bit of fight! they did that for me to when I changed them also i like your new Milwaukee good for the smaller jobs, thank you for what you did for me kevin. Thumbs up from me buddy👍

Buen trabajo, buena herramienta. Saludos desde colombia.

Just removed my transmission with this video. Super informative

I'm mechanic but watching i love watching vedeos👍👍👍

Im dreading the ULEZ charges coming, i own a VW golf wagon 1.9tdi pd. Great video, as always.

Another cracking job Kevin 👌

Cómo siempre q buen trabajo, saludos desde México

Hi Kevin great job as usual all the best Shaun

Watched a few of your videos, always brilliant! i've just bought myself a caddy and if the the clutch packs in have this video on backup! thank you!

new to your channel luv the vids you do and great work on the caddy👍👍

Thanks for taking the time to make this video 👌great work

Awesome walk through and attention to detail

Great job Pal, ive just changed the driver's side drive Shaft on my car, same engine and gearbox i think? BXE. total nightmare, hahaha. You have some cool tools there but it's not easy still i know, being under the car on your back like that. I left putting the output flange seal's on and just topped the gear box up with tranny fluid. Ah well she'll keep fighting me along the way but won't beat me completely. Haha.

Another great video by the genius

Great stuff Kevin thanks for sharing 👍👍👍 That gear selector you always remove @ 17:09 in the video even though it’s splined I presume it only goes back one way?? Sometimes you have to shock it with long half inch drive extension when the 13 nut is removed…. Would like to see a close up shot of it if you think of it the next time you do one of those clutch’s, many thanks

Nice work i have touran 1.9 have you change one on these before. looks very similar going to attempt it myself. Looks quite straight forward 🤞

I see you are doing regularly clutch replacement on VW family. Are you sollicited sometimes for clutch or flywheel replacement on DSG6/7 gear box ? Very nice video, as usual 👍

Hi Kevin you are Top 👍👍👍 hello from 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

You are the best mate!!!

Your work, knowledge and experience is amazing. Did you enjoy puzzle books growing up? Thank you very much.

Thanks for the amazing video my friend

well done , hard working man. just to ask . how is your charge as a mobile clutch man compeer to the garage? all the best

Very helpful video. Thanks

Great video. Best I've seen

VW 👍💪 have a good weekend my friend

Quick question, why did you apply red rubber grease on the bell housing bolt points? Also as far as i know red grease is for parts that contains rubbers like O rings etc..

Thanks. Top man and a small token of my gratitude

Muy buen trabajo a pesar de no tener las condiciones de un taller con elevador

Gute arbeit!

YES, now this interests me as i had the same model van.

What a machine…. 100% ex SAS . This guy is unbelievable

From Algeria....respect 🎩

Eres un crack...si eso es sin hablar que tal si lo hiciera..👍👍👍👍

Is it worth replacing the crank angle sensor or if it's working best leave it alone? After watching your videos for years I'm ready to replace my clutch and dmf. Parts have arrived tools are laid out ready!

Приветствую вас! Удачи вам! 👏👌💪

Me again 😂 what ya call that you put the gear box fluid back in with. Cheers 👍👍

Just out of intrest Which car would you say has been the hardest and easiest from what you have changed.

You got the 3/8 compact impact gun! Would you recommend? Is it light? I was thinking about getting it.

Increible como trabajas , like like like LIKE LIKE LIKE

great job as that a duel mass

Hi mate when your doing a clutch do you also replace the release bearing ? Also do you inspect the flywheel before replacment of the clutch ? If you think the flywheel is no good do you recommend a replacment flywheel also or do you just bolt the new clutch on ?

👍👍👍 bravo

good job, it's hard when it's heavy gearboxes. If you can tell me how many Nm is your impact wrench. Thank you. Good continuation.

You not human you never heard ya groan moan or even swear 😂😂😂 Memory of an elephant 😂😂 remembering where all the nuts and bolts go back 😳 and wearing two pair of gloves how do ya feel anything 🤔 Excellent video and great job Kevin lad 👍👍👍👍

Hey William quick question are the drive shaft bolts on these VW's a stretch type ?

hi could you let me know the part number for the luk clutch kit i have the same van same year thanks.

Hi Kevin! Why don't you expand your buisness also to exchanging cam belts. Many car owners who have bought their car second hand, worry about not knowing if earlier owners have done this.

Fantastico

How much did this actual replacement cost in in the video mate

excelent 😁

Ahoj, ty si kapacita.. Vidno tvoje skúsenosti. Dávaš pozor na detaily. Zodpovedná práca

What’s the part number of the dm flywheel and clutch? Please, there are a few choices online I’m a bit confused! Mine is a 2010 bls 1.9 tdi maxi

Hi Kevin 👋, how do you know if you need to bleed the clutch or not? Many thanks.

100 % 👍

Is this the 5 speed you also get in the SEAT Altea with the same engine?

Such a good video man! 👌 Anyone know if this is the same procedure on a 04 caddy?

Is there any part of the video that shows just the clutch switch and how to remove it? Thanks

A good tradesman makes there job look so easy so much so you make it look like I can do this with my eyes closed, but I won’t try🤪I would use you at the drop of a hat what area do you cover? Im I’m Chelmsford essex & need clutch & DMF changed.

Fancy doing mine 😊westmidlands

great video, super helpful. But what's the purpose of removing the driver side driveshaft cup? and therefore having to drain the gearbox oil? does it just give you more space to remove the gearbox?

Some say his the modern day stig mechanic

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Itu transmisi nya di angkat sendiri memang ga berat gitu?

Find myself saying fuck that a lot through your videos mate. gj!

At minut 7 ,why do you remove that part from The gearbox,you can't do it whit it on The gearbox? I ask beacause i need to do The same operațiun.

Why drain the gearbox oil and why remove a driveshaft flange? Just curious that's all.

is good Diabolik

Junge muß der Mann eine Kraft haben. Wer so ein Getriebe mal in der Hand hatte weiß das es nicht das leichteste is.

~♡♡~

Someone's done that before

hey

Do you speak?

Do you really work with this on a daily basis? No torque wrench and no mounting tool for SAC clutch? Wondering how long the clutch lasts?

Ты русский?

a force de faire des boites de vitesses vous devait avoir des bras de arnold schwarzenegger !!!

Simple job then? 🫣
