I did one of these this week and thanks to your video, it showed me that it can be done without lowering or removing the subframe (as opposed to many other guides). The gearbox was bloody heavy though, and you made it look light! Thank you for taking the time to upload these videos and also for thinking about your camera placement so people can actually see what you are doing.

You're a superman at your job. They way you lift this beast of a gearbox with your hands and belly is a piece of art on its own. Hats off to you and your work.... You're a genius mate. You make this job look like a piece of cake while we all know it's not that easy. Thank you for the uploads too... Brilliant filming! You're perfect in all you do. Keep it up!

I fully anticipate that these videos will eventually make their way onto DVD,,,,,these are the Gold Standard of how to change clutches and are as good as if not better any Haynes manual ,,,,A1 all round

Your videos helped me replace a clutch in my parents car. I couldn’t do it without your videos so please keep them coming.

I’m mechanic 45 years and counting your works good bud

if i done a video like this most of the video would be me looking for sockets 🤣🤣

Thankyou for taking the time to make this video, I'm a painter by trade and have never even done my own brakes before. This weekend I successfully changed my clutch thanks to your vid. You've saved me a few quid! I owe you a pint!

What a ball ache of a job to do a clutch on a Vivaro. Dreading doing this one . Your video will be saved and I will study it for the next few weeks definitely need to especially the amount of stuff has to be undone. Thank you for taking your time to post these quality videos and the extra time it takes because you are recording the job for us viewers and subscribers. Much appreciated. top bloke excellent work and very helpful video 👏💪👊

I have watched this 50 times brilliant I've just done mine.Thanks.

Took me two days, fair play putting that box in by hand. I got mine out by hand and it pinned me to the floor! Luckily neighbour steered the trolley jack to get it in. Doing that in one day is a real measure of your skills. Thankyou

Absolutely awesome you make it look so easy I've changed clutches on my drive where I was younger I'm now 63 and got arthritis in my wrists and thumbs. Can't do it now I've got so much respect for you for making it look easy great video again

I am from Iraq and I follow you continuously..I am very impressed with your work..You are a wonderful man..I learned a lot from you..but more moments that frighten me when the gearbox comes down to your stomach I fear you you will be harmed ... but you are very adept as you work this hard work On your own, you also have trouble shooting .. Thank you very much

I like your videos and it helped me change a clutch on a Renault master. Didn't want a baby elephant on my chest so l used a jack and and braced a 2x4 across the inner wings and it worked quite well. Thanks for your efforts.

I have traffic 2, 115 dci 2008: I used this video which allowed me to change my clutch alone in two days, I say a big thank you.

you make everything look really easy bro I did the older vivaro today the gearbox weighs an absolute ton 👊🏻

The best mechanic in UK ! Thanks for sharing ! Respect man !

Absolutely first class tutorial man, tremendous detail and clarity ,many thanks I watched the whole video thru, the best viewing on the tele tonight

Just want to thank you for a great video, used it to change my clutch and slave cylinder on my own Vivaro this week. Surprised a few people with the fact I has completed at the side road, all this was done with the help for your video. Thanks again really appreciate it.

You made them driveshaft removals look like kids play, never comes apart so easy for me, although as a Vivaro owner I am quite an expert at the front end strip down as it all needs to come off to do just about any job. Great camera work as well as the tools.👍

Really nice work. I'm replacing my gearbox soon, and this will be my guide. Thank You!

You are the best mechanic I've ever seen a true craftsman

Did another one on my back today thanks to your video One very heavy gearbox to say the least! One thing I tried today that sped the job up was rather than undo the bottom ball joint nut, just undo both shock Absorber nut and bolts and that allows the driveshaft to come out of the hub without removing any lower suspension components saved a bit more time, love your video's and you must be strong as Eddie Hall to handle the gearboxes the way you do! I've done two on my back and loads on the ramp and they don't get any lighter 🤣

wow I have just put my gear box back in today, I so wish I had seen this video. Great step by step walk through.

This guy is game, doing this clutch or any other in the street. Kudos.

Top job. When I do them vans I leave all the bits on the shut plate even the intercooler and strap them to the bonnet and in turn tie the bonnet to a roof rack or even the back doors . Your strong mate as I use a over head winch to move the gearbox around while I guide it underneath with the remote in my hand . Still hard work on your own . Your a skilled man

Love the audio and background noises in these videos. It's like a film

Fantastic video, a great help, and so good that it shows the reassembly. Yes, trying to man handle the gearbox back up was tricky, but the hardest bit for me was removing and refitting that black plastic cable trunking 😆Many, many thanks 👍

Hats off to you for doing such a big job outside on your back a lot of the time 👍

Top job again , heavy wee box hats off to ya for lifting some of the ones on your videos from lying on your back 👏👏

You are amazing mate. It’s a pleasure watching you working

Man that looked a mission.. photographic memory or what 👏

Thanks, very detailed video without unnecessary commentries.

Great video, I am changing the gearbox in my Primastar and this is so helpful. Thank you.

Thanks to your vid I got one done no frame down and no issues thanks for sharing

Best KZfaq vid I've seen so far on taking the box out on one of these👍

We folks done my van last week. New clutch kit fitted also had the gearbox refurbished too. I did have a problem with connecting the clutch fuild pipe back on it keeped leak there is a small rubber grommet seal that goes on to the connector and got one on ebay. But part for that went well. It did cost me around £1000 to do my self new cluch kit and the gearbox refurbishment cost £575. Also I had to buy a engine lift to get the gearbox back on as I could not lift it was so heavy. Good luck folks.

not many machanics like you around.love your work.

It's a pity you don't cover South Wales, I'd be calling you now! Amazing video, well shot, and an outstanding repair.

Amazing video from start to finish, thank you for your efforts

Absolutely brilliant mechanic, very good video.

I just want to say thank you for uploading this, I watched this video on repeat and learnt how to change the clutch on my 2011 Vivaro... You really made that gearbox look lighter than it is, I struggled! deffo need to get down the gym 😀

My Father has a 61 Ford Tourneo as a Taxi. For once, this job makes ford designers look clever

Once again fantastic job. Lots of ancillaries to move to get at it. Brilliant camera work too.

Really good video pal! You literally made it look easy as antrhubf when Jesus that box is bloody heavy!

you are in good strength, it is good to be heavy in such a gearbox!!!!

Amazing guide. Such good camera angles. Cheers mate!

Hi Kevin took my gearbox out today for new clutch and slave cylinder putting back together tomorrow it was the slave cylinder that failed so doing the two. your video is brilliant great help us to work on cars all the time but it’s been awhile since I work on a car or van

One of the most phantastic video clips i recently saw! Wow, and without the special lifting equipment of the garage that does it only from beneath. This is a great, super great video! i would call you for any repair, so much trust this spreads in your mechanical skills!! +je

Well done mate very good video saved me a lot of time !

Chilled me out watching this, cheers pal 😀

Great work is always enjoyable to watch being done

Well done mate. Great job with great filming. Very professionally done. My salutes to you.

Lol you removed and installed the transmission without to remove the subframe! At least 50 kilograms is the transmission. Well done:))

I think only Vauxhall could of made it so difficult compared to the Transit. Good work.

Thank you so much for the step by step video. Just removed my Van's GB .

You can do them without taking all the front off on a ramp but struggle on the deck I have done exactly the same thing a few times. Dedication mate great job 👍🏻

👍🏽 c est un gros travail, bravo warrior clutches 👏

Video starting with the sound of a Stihl Saw filled me with confidence

hats off for you.great Job.good video quality.smart and cool working techniques.keep the good work,though I have done often before I enjoyed your video.big BRAVO

Respekt vor Ihrer Leistung.👍👍👍

Hallo Kevin, ein wertvolles Video für mich ! Habe einen Trafic und muss auch bald das 5 Gang Getriebe ausbauen (Synchronringe ) .Danke und Grüße aus Ostdeutschland !

Great video pal Doing mine tomorrow morning hopefully it will be bit easier with your video . Thanks

Damn that was a lot of disassembling, great job .

Complimenti per il mestiere che conosco bene anchii ne ho fatte tante di frizioni a quel modo e conosco la fatica fisica di tirare giu un cambio senza sollevatore 👍👍💪

Another wonderful video as usual,.. Hats off!!

Top job on your back, respect

What a beasty of a job! I would have been happier seeing some new CV boots go on there whilst the driveshafts were off?

Superb video as always dude!! I’m a HGV tech going on 10 years now. I’d love to see how quick you could do a truck clutch 😂 there isn’t as much in the way 😂

The Clutch Ninja......at it again. I found the Picasso of interest the other day only as I have one. Good work bro. If I ever need a clutch done on mine in Southend On Sea Ill give you a shout for a quote..

Wow! The length of this video says enuff! Changing the clutch - 10 mins, getting to the clutch - about 2 hours. Would have been nice to see the state of that clutch when it came off cos it looked proper dead! As usual, awesome vid....shame weather was pants for you tho!

you are the ninja clutch master 👍👍👍👍👍

Got 1 in work tomoz, always watch how you go about it first good video 👌

You are a humble person.j adore regarder tes vidéos continue tu es very good

Great video of how to do it. Brilliant

bravo toujours aussi professionnel beaucoup de travail sur ce camion pour changer l'embrayage bravo encore

Keep up the incredible work mate

Thank you for the video! It helped me so much. 💪🏼

lifting that change is not for everyone...compliments!

You have a good memory, i would have loads of spare bits . Lol

Great video man. Hard graft on the ground. I know what it's like!

Fantastico! You is like grease lightning. Great movie, tank you, I is inspired and shall be changing the wiper blades this weekend. 10/10 super job.

excellent video Kevin and i agree with everyone else you made it look very easy, but also very daunting , with the amount of stuff that had to be removed. You also made lifting that gearbox off and back up, look so easy. it weighs a ton :D anyway thanks to you and this video , you made a very daunting task that was a lot easier, but it still took me all day. Last clutch i changed was on a mini cooper back in the 80's :D Thanks again

The last 2 I've done of these required me to re-use the CSC pipework as the supplied pipes from LUK were a different angle, I simply swapped the new "o" rings over onto the old pipework... Also I'm still in two minds on if moving the radiator or the subframe gives additional clearance ( i don't lift the boxes in like you 🙂)...Ive also ditched my pressure bleeder for these jobs as I found it actually made bleeding worse...good Vid!

Your videos are great keep up the good work

Thanks for this video it's a great help to me, mind I'm changing my engine as well, it's a hard slog, I'm 69year old man, 10years ago no problems but today it's took me almost 3weeks😂🤣😅🤣🤣😂🤣 good job I'm retired, anyway thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Very good video, didn't notice much use of a torque wrench.

Thank You very much, best video by far on this task on youtube I found. You did not drop the front axle from the body as advised in oem repair manual ? Regards

It's good to see a good job done 👍👍👍👍👍spot on mate

Fantastic work u r very good macanic love watching

Très beaux travailles merci de ta vidéo

Those impact ratchets are real treasure.

bought a Vauxhall vivaro 08 about 3 months ago to convert into a campervan.so I got this van and it was basically setup campervan wise in the back with switchboard for electricity and leisure battery etc plus it was insulated aswel and had a carpet finish I thought I was onto good ting here the van was absolutely spotless regarding it's body work but of course their are hiding gremlins as per usual.so heading to my mam one day the lights start flashing on the dashboard stop stop 🛑 .went to garage I was told the injectors were knackered.got two new injectors same ting happened.he then told me tht the injectors were seized in the head the other two injectors?I said why didn't you tell me tht at the start ? no answer .anyways it was cost to much money to get new injectors and for him to take seized injectors out.got reconditioned engine with four new injectors it worked out cheaper.light still came on after installing new reconditioned engine.so I went back to my garden took out the air intake box and also took off the cover tht was covering the injectors and low and behold one of the injectors was pissing diesel out of it .he basically took old injector out of my old engine without o ring and put into new engine.so I said this to him and he just said no no no leak 😂😂😂 but what he didn't no was I took serial numbers of both injectors he took out of old engine and wrote them down.so he showed me injector and Said this is your problem.i looked at him and said thts the old injector from old engine he said no no no it's not .I then showed him the number off the injector and he then said ahhh must be different injector with same serial number 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 absolute cowboy caught by the balls .as I was saying regarding yourself.you can see you love your job and you don't try and take advantage of people.keep the good work up pal.my van is now in getting a reconditioned gearbox from a new mechanic thankgod .she will be like a new van after everything I've done to her🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice work 👍😎thanks fore the you did this video 😊

Good video. Now to give it a try my self now. Wish me luck.

Kevin I brilliant he's the clutch ninja 👌👍👏👊

Good work..... respect....... my best recommendation is to use a good facemask, specially for the clutch material (asbestos)

*Bravo maestro!* Cheers from Serbia

This bloke is worth his weight in gold. Apart from the split gaiters.

Super, you are an artist.

Super vidéo merci beaucoup 👍
