Being an old mechanic… retired now it was an excellent tutorial video for the DIY mechanic and it was good to see NO gloves just a good mechanic working and not frighted to get a bit of oil on his hands … 👏👏👍

anyway a lot, like me, use gloves because a lot of automotive fluids are known carcinogens and cause skin problems in a long term exposure. Also in a lot of work places they are required as they are DPI.

@orio_3 Ай бұрын

Gloves are smart, especially against open cuts and as a previous comment mentioned, cancer. There's a reason less mechanics are dying from cancer etc and that's because safety is now a thing.

Thank you so much for this video! I was struggling a lot with the tensioner on my wife's Modus and actually damaged the tensioner. Allthough I had the tension indicator right, it was running against the cilinderblock. Seems like you can have the tensioner mounted with the markings correct, but it still can hit the cilinderblock. So I ordered a new belt and tensioner and find this really helpfull video. Now I did it again and it seems to be running smoothless, so thank you! On a Modus there really is much, much less space then on the Clio in this video.

Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I did it over the weekend on my Clio 4 1.2 16v. Everything went ok, but I hear a high pitch noise that wasn't there before. It changes with the rpm. The noise is only there when the metal upper cover of the belt is installed. Do you know what it could be? Maybe the belt is too tight and the top cover cavity is just amplifying the noise? I tightened the tensioner according to your video and the manual, but I noticed it moved slightly after rotating the camshaft. I drove about 30 km, seems perfectly fine and the noise is not so loud anymore.

@diydaly 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah give it chance to settle it, if you’ve lined it up it can’t be too tight , hopefully all good now if the noise is gone 👍

Hi, I followed the video but unfortunately even if I double checked everything, once done and turn on the engine, it dies.. It stays on for about 2 seconds, then it shuts off. It accelerates if I press the gas. Might be out of timing? Have you ever experienced something similar? Thank you

Wouldn’t it be better to feed the belt onto the crankshaft sprocket first rather than the camshaft sprocket? Also before removing the belt and in addition to pinning the crankshaft, wouldn’t it be better to also pin the cam shaft sprocket?

My Slm Vehicle My 2007 model CLIO 3 1.2 16v gasoline vehicle does not exceed 90 km at 3000 rpm on long distances. It does 115-120 km over 4000 rpm, but the car screams a lot. As far as I learned, when the last gear is changed, it easily goes over 100 km at normal speed. Is this true, how much is the estimated cost? Is there a suitable gearbox for this if we put another gearbox? I would be very grateful if you could answer my questions. Thank you.

@diydaly Жыл бұрын

You can't really change it for a different gearbox, are you sure it doesn't have a fault
