Talking like a true engineer Al “If it’s going in a bit pissed” Your talking my language now mate 👍

I butchered this seal on my vlvo v70, glad I found your video on how to get it out properly

Good work Alan 😀

As always, great video. I admire the fact you find time to film all these while doing your job. I feel I could almost do what you're doing following your detailed presentations. Cheers!

Excellent as always Alan thanks.

Great video as usual Alan

Hi Alan had the misfortune of fitting the passenger side oil seal real pain you made it look so easy keep up the good work greetings from Ireland

Thanks for the video. I just did this job on my Fiesta ST. Pretty sure the seal, and maybe even gearbox are the same.

I feel the same way about those seals.. they're right pain to remove!!! Done mine few months ago..

Mate thank you so much. I build the tool By My own and it worked so good. 6 sec. And i it was out….Thank u 100x Mate.

monica doesn't need an apple...………..she`s got a lovely pear !!!!!!

Thanks for the tips, I have a focus and the seals are the same.

Brilliant 👏

Nice video! You certainly showed the old seal who’s boss😂

Hi Alan. Great video on the gearbox seal 😆 Can't believe it I saw my first Steve's taxi today on the A1198 near Papworth lol 😂 I'm at the Cambridge university veterinary hospital off the A1303 with a mobile MRI scanner in my lorry watching this video on a apple 🍎 iPad hehe 😂 Cheers Stevie

Brilliant

Missed you Alan.

Ty enjoyed

Nice video well done

I think the mk4 mondeo takes 75w90 full sinthetic GL5 gearbox oil . You put old style monograde 75w gl4 in the mk5 ?

Hello Alan! What is your opinion about the awd models? Is the read diff and prop shaft OK? If something goes wrong, how about repairs/services?

good clear video mate on how to do the job you would be a great instructor at the tec college for up and coming fitters lol

We have a couple garden sprayers that are modified to fill gear boxes and diffs.

Monika is proper good looking.

Great help, can I ask where is your garage i have a noise problem on my mk7 fiesta that hard to locate

Hi sir Will be the same drive shaft seal for focus 2013 1.6 tdci manual 6 gear?

Where did you get the bearing puller tool from Alan?🙂👍

Hi man, you are amazing, I have the same problem with my car and no mechanic could help me ... do you recommend me to change it myself?

Must have been very awkward filming the close up of seal removal & installation Excellent video Keep up the good work Alan

Alan may I ask generally how do you find the reliability of the Mk5 Mondeo, thinking I'd replace my MK4 with the Mk5 1.5tdci.

Hi Alen,as this seal goes,can it get to clutch face and cause slippage.many thanks.Oliver great channel, ex mech.

How much gearbox oil does it take

Hi alan, my car went in for a service and the drive shaft seals are misting, im guessing this is the issue i have fors want 300 quid for the job would you say thays a fair price?, other than that my car is spot in thank god, for

Very true about carefully reinserting the drive shaft as the inner black seal is a simmering, which is a black rubber sleeve with a spring bracelet wrapped around it, if that spring bracelet accidentally comes off, you'll have to buy a new seal as there's no way in hell it'll sit back in place! .. don't ask me how I know 😖 Edit: That spring can be seen ignited @12:56

Can I ask Alan if your changing these seals on all of your fleet ?

Hi Alan, it’s I’m watching your videos from Australia, I’m wondering if you can make a video about how to change the gear box oil? Thanks

Gearbox oil is indeed foul smelling stuff. I found that out the hard way! I still hate having anything to do with it.

Hello Mr. Alan. I plan to buy a 2018 Ford Mondeo 2.0 tdci Powershift 2018. I have a question ... since the Mondeo that I am planning to buy is manufactured in 2018 and has been in storage for over 18 months, could this be a hindrance in terms of proper functioning? And do I need to ask the dealer to first servicie the car, in terms of replacing the engine oil and oil filter as well as eventually the battery? Thank you very much...and greetings from Prishtina - Republic of Kosovo

If your seal is playing up you could try some mackerel or sprats! Usually calms it down...

If you don't have this special tool: I managed to remove the oil seal by using a big screwdriver on the outer metal edge of the seal and beat it toward its middle until it bend and squeezed together. Then I prised it out.

Hey Alan do you have a video in replacing the crankshaft seal

Good morning Alan! I have a question for you about the Mondeo MK5 with 1.5 TDCI engine. Your videos show that you mainly service a Mondeo with a 2.0 TDCI engine. Have you ever serviced a Mondeo or another Ford model with a 1.5 TDCI engine? Can you say something about this engine? Is this unit also recommended and durable as 2.0 TDCI, or is there anything to fear about it? There are opinions on the internet about a broken timing belt at a mileage below 100 miles or a broken head gasket? I will be grateful for all your opinions! Happy days!

where did you get that suction pump from al ????

ALAN I HAVE A FORD FOCUS MK3 TITANIUM X DIESEL MATE I HAVE ONE OF THEM TOOLS FROM MACHINE MART ALAN IT STILL WONT COME OUT

A hole in one, well you certainly knocked it on the head, nothing like going flat out. 😅😄😃😂

Alan you could have asked Monikaaaa to "wipe the end" for you.

13:03: Ears exploded.

That looks even worse than having to remove a motorcycle fork oil seal, the normal method for those is to screw a large "self scraping chew" into the seal and to use a claw hammer to pull it out :) I always give everything a coating of grease for protection when dealing with seals. You should have done this at xmas and had Monica show you how to use an old Turkey baster to refill the gearbox :) When your wife complains about the smell of gear oil and demands to wash them, you tell her to wash them on their own, she ignores the advice for everything in that load LOL The difference between a normal PC and Apple is if you want them or you to decide the specifications of it :)

2 points I'd like to add.... 1. Real work is done on pc s. Apple is for play. 2. Why is it that even with synthetic versions of gear oil it still stinks of rotting vegetables???

Love your vids Alan... own a 5 series so none of your content relevant to me but love watching you. Only..... please please ditch the fake laugh add ins... please!!!! They are Wrecking my head now!!!! Spoil your videos.

Hehe, flange!

Love your videos and the humour, but pleeeeeease stop using that annoying laughter. I mean... wtf ? 😆

In a heterosexual way.

Why this horror tool instead of a screwdriver? BTW: cheap oil - my Powershift gearbox needs six liters every four years ;-)

Omg that laugh is so annoying 🍏
