Just fixed my gearbox with the same bearing problem! Just that one bearing made my van sound horrendous!! Really thought I needed a full rebuild or replacement box but this video gave me the idea to try and replace it and it works absolutely perfect now! Many thanks for this video and not to mention the money I have saved! 👍

Great video. I think I know all about that gearbox now 🤣 You make it so simple

Thank you Alan, 👏👌👍 the Stealership sold you a rebuilt gearbox for 3000€ for only one broken bearing

Nice job Pro

Hi there I did watch the other video of you doing the gear box bearing but my One it jumps out of 1st and a bit of a wine but it still drives perfect in all the other gear I have a 2012. Mk4 diesel estate I don't use the car every day and only go a few miles in it we have got some other cars so I will use it until I have to do it I am a Lorrie driver so as are mechanics say I will let it develop I will check your video on how to do the selectors on the gear's great job

Thankyou Alan 👍

Thank you for your video. I'm contemplating buying a 17 plate 4x4 transit with a grinding rattling noise from gearbox 🤔🧐 I wonder.

Ótimo trabalho, qual óleo utilizado nessa caixa é de 6 ou 5 marchas?

It strikes me that the gasket will be part of the calculations of end float on the gearbox shafts. Without it, there will be excessive preload on the taper bearings on each end of those shafts. Would take some time but I would expect those bearings to fail earlier than they should - might be a tad noisy, as well.

Might be abit of a repeat Alan but we love your videos

Hello and thank you very much for this video. I have the same problem. Same comment as other people about fitting a sealed bearing. My level of English does not allow me to understand the comments. I have a few questions: type of thread lock used, tightening torque of the screw and where you position the magnet in the box when reassembling. During disassembly it fell. Thank you very much for an answer. I use google translate.

In the "real world", a vehicle wouldn't reach 200k where the bearing might fail. A Ford would either be scrapped due to corrosion or the cost of a DMF and clutch. Alan's vehicles are different because they run up a huge mileage in just a few years. Useful information for Ford themselves.

You’ve just earned yourself another subscriber my man , very good

Great video thanks for posting and you made it look so easy. Great filming i have the transit custom 2019 2.0 euro 6 its only done 15k so i am a long way of 250k lol. Question how do you know the oil level is ok in the transit gear box. On ford over many years you take out the oil level plug and if it drips out its ok. I have been told its different on the ford custom. Could you tell us or do a video on how you check it much appreciated. Michael nottingham 👍

Thanks good video same sealed bearing why are they sealed and not like the others which are good lubricated from gear oil think ford put that one in to keep you busy

"Moon Bearings, Rougher With Each Mile, I'll Grind you Out With Style Someday......."🤣🤣🤣

You and your Forks Alan. Doesn’t seem like yesterday you were on that Mondy

I have a 2.2 Custom and the gearbox is changing gear beautifully however the whining noise is horrendous. Im guessing this is same problem. I would have loved to hear the sound before and after. Are all custom gearboxes the same?

Would it be worth opening that new bearing and exposing it to the gearbox oil

Great!

Have you got any videos of taking Kia Sportage box apart?

Hi Alan, do you perhaps know if a gearbox bearing can be replaced seperated? I own a Ford Focuys 1.8TDCI from 2005, and while driving the car I hear a humming noise. When pressing the clucht while driving the sound is gone, by releasing it comes instant back no matter what gear. I noticed how higer I rev the car the more noise it makes.

Ford Mondeo automatic box,there is an interior filter inside,Could you please explain how to change it?,ive tried to change it multiple times but i cant,could you please explain sir?,thank you.

alan, mondeo 2023 not coming to europe, whats your opinion?

Does anyone know where I buy a injector puller for MK5 mondeo 2.0 diesel?

How much was the bearing??

THANKIOU

that bearing doesn't need a seal appears to have got hot and removal of the seal would mean the oil would get in if the seal was removed it would last a lifetime

Looks to me the only bearing in the box that is sealed both sides ..the others are open to the gearbox oil ...perhaps that's the fault..maybe one seal should to be removed, to save the bearing spinning in its own detritus..not getting washed out with clean oil constantly like the others...thanks very much Alan, excellent video ..is that an mtx75 box ? f so, maybe you should mention that somewhere.. and i don't know on my connect mtx75 box ..there seems to be a plate over that bearing ..like it could be changed with the box still in the van?

Interesting that the only bearing in the box with a nylon seal, is the only bearing that has failed in both boxes. 🤔 I aways remove the nylon seals whenever I replace them.

What causes the pitted bearings , are they coated and not one single material ball ?? Is it grease breaking down the cause of the pitted ness. Do I take it expensive bearings don’t break down until moon miles ???

How much do you charge to repair a gearbox Where in the U.K. are you

How much where the replacement parts

Why use a sealed bearing in a box that has open bearings in oil and the sealed ones failed. I’m currently changing a sealed bearing in a Ford ranger 2015 gear box!!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Where’s your garage pal as I’ve got the same issue with my food focus

Alright Alan,I was wondering could you give me an idea about two dead passenger doors ,front and back,the windows and central locking not working on mondeo mk4 ,I checked all the fuses,and changed driver door and passenger modules but the problem remains, if you have any experience with this problem I would appreciate it thank Niall

Just think, modern EVs don't have to worry about "Transmissions" K.I.S.S. :D

Mam luz na kielichu z lewej strony bardzo duży co może być uszkodzone

Intentionally or otherwise, Ford will always design an Achilles' heel into everything they manufacture.

I thought you would have picked the seal out for inspection before your attacked it with Freddie five inch Bearing seems to be a common fault maybe poor quality bearing supply or is wrong application putting a sealed bearing within a gearbox think I would either of removed the seals or one for the oil to circulate through it Maybe have this conversation in another 250 thousand miles down the road.... Till the next time. See yah !

Do you not get bored working on cars all day? I know I do.

Mmmmmm. Furry iron fillings Happy New Hammer 2023. Soft face posh

the bearing is slovakian, had it been a koyo, it still be good

Im also noisy ,hubby..just to let u know😉
