One of the better videos out there for this job, I'm Currently doing it right now and you're a life saver! Thank you for taking the time to help us ppl who don't have 4k for the dealership!

Amazing DIY Tutorial!... I had to replace the trans on my Ford Focus because of a broken case mount... I was totally intimidated at the task before me until I discovered Big Ben's channel. Thanks Ben for all the confidence & expertise provided... I was able to pull the Trans, rebuilt the clutch, reinstall and added in a little Forscan and I was good to go. Thanks for helping me save thousands in repair costs. Oho Raah, to all DIY’s out there!🙂

This video has been extremely helpful to me. The tip about taking the clip off of the forks when installing the new ones was a life saver. Subbed! Thanks!

One of the best video i ever watched, you make it look so easy,no special tools 💯👍

Your a life saver, just finished replacing the clutch and forks in my focus and I used this video the whole way.

One of the best instructional videos I’ve ever watched!!!

Thanks… please upload more content. Your voice is pleasant , clear, and not robotic! I subbed

thank you very much for uploading this vid! You, sir, are a master mechanic!

These videos have been amazing. I just bought a 2014 focus that had some.minor body damage. Since I'm already tearing the front end off I'm going to do these clutches as well

Thanks! Car drives like new. I could not have done it without your help.

Great video, will have mine completed tomorrow. It’s the first one I’ve done and you made it look easy. Thank you for the guidance.

The best video!! Help me a lot

awesome thank you! i do a lot of mechanic work on my own vehicles, along with others'. so its good to have a video explaining of what needs to be done!!

Thanks foe your explanation i get a lot of informations that can help me thanks 😊

Thank you! This is great info.

We need thousands more techs like you. Good job sir.

Very good advice thank you

Just did mines for the first time yesterday. Got it done in about 6 hours with no special tools thanks to your videos. I also didn't do the clutch relearn and the car drives better than it ever did since i owned it

Took me 4 days but man it works so well. Thank you for your insight during this! Ps dont do this with your wife unless you want a good test on your relationshipp lol 😂

Good job❤

Do you have any tips for the flywheel nuts? I can’t seem to get them off like they’re stuck or something. Do I need to release tension somewhere or get a more powerful wrench?

Que tal saludos!!! Tengo una duda es la primera vez que trabajo en un vehículo con ese tipo de clutch y yo solo ocupo cambiar las orquillas el clutch esta aceptable , yo usare el mismo clutch tengo que resetearlo solo por el hecho de haberlo quitado ??? O se vuelve a instalar asi como lo quite?

Hi Ben, love your videos. They are how I out my first dual clutch back together. I was wondering if the clutch popping up some when unlocking is normal? I am having trouble getting my rear dowel rodd in when matting trans to engine and am wondering if the clutch jumping up has something to do with my issue? All info is much appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the video.. i have a question? Would a broken actuator motor cause the same problem as a broken fork? Would the codes be the same??

Top notch removal video! It is much appreciated! (Torque info below) In addition to the information provided in the video. 1) Place both shift fork assemblies in their proper location. 2) Tighten the four (4) Torx fasteners, common to the fork assemblies and transmission, finger tight. 3) Install the two clutch actuator motor assemblies using the eight (8) inverted Torx fasteners, finger tight, ensuring splines align. Per the manual, “NOTICE: The clutch actuator motor splines must be aligned with the clutch actuator and the motor must be flush to the transmission clutch housing before tightening the clutch actuator fasteners to specification. Failure to follow this notice will result in damage to the actuator and motor.” 4) Torque the four (4) Torx fasteners, common to the fork assemblies and transmission, to 19 Nm 5) Remove the clutch motor to allow for the clutch locks to be unlocked after clutch and damper unit installation. 6) Align the markings and torque the four (4) inverted Torx fasteners, common to the fork springs, to 26 Nm. 7) Torque the eight (8) inverted Torx fasteners, common to the clutch actuator motor assemblies, to 5 Nm.

Hi, thank you so much for sharing this with us, I’ve learned a lot from your videos… I have one concern, I just did the clutch and forks cleaning on my 2015 Ford Focus SE, it was running and driving perfect just had 2 codes for slow performance of forks. After I cleaned everything I put everything back and every wire/cable is connected but my car doesn’t start nor communicate with the scanner. When I turn my ignition on the engine light does not come on it take around 10-15 secs to turn on and as soon as the engine light turns on it says “Engine Fault Service Now” car has no crank nothing just sits. Every fuse and relay is good I can’t figure out what the issue is, can you help?

Are there any tricks to getting the CV axles out? I've been trying for the past 2 weekends and I can't seem to get them out. Haven't even really tried passenger side yet, just been focused on drivers side first

this is the best video i have ever seen and explained so well. I have a ford focus auto got codes p287b p2837, am i most likey to replace the transmission? i dont work on car, only semis, all same same

Hi great video I used this to take my transmission out as clutch fork b totally failed due to corrosion. What is the best grease to use when reassembling clutch forks and bearing.

Big Ben great video! I started this project yesterday got stuck on axle nut removal because other videos I’ve seen remove it! Until I saw how u do it! No need to remove! Rrrrgg life saver! What bout resetting clutch..I didn’t c u use d tool with giant rings….do we not have to do that? Thanks in advance

Great video, excellent explanation, I was just confused about how many bell housing bolts there were total? I got 9 on my cord focus, the three on top, the two next the catalytic converters, the two on the bottom and the two next to the ones on the bottom, I don’t know if those were all of them because when I try to remove the transmission it seems stuck to the engine even after I pull. But others than that definitely the best video out there on this subject and definitely worth subscribing

Hey I’m having trouble moving the starter out of the way to get to the clutch bolts, any recommendations? I’ve already pulled out those lower mounts as well

Hey Ben, I was just wondering I finished working on this car and everything seemed to work very well until today Seems that it shakes badley also when I press the brake the car revs up. The car also when u stop from a higher gear sounds like its slamming and gear 2 or three sound like there grinding this morning any help would be appreciated

i have a question i did everything according to the video can someone guide me where i messed up in reverse its smooth when i put it in drive it jumps please HELP!

Are these fork actuators all the same? I just called Ford and they needed my vin to identify the correct parts and had different parts (and prices) for A abd B actuators. And they were almost $250 each.

Great video! I have installed a refurb clutch assembly and noticed it does not have an alingment mark to line up with the flex plate. I dont see how i can align clutch assembly with flex plate with out alignment mark and am concerned it will have vibration. What would you suggest? Thanks

I’m reusing the same clutch and when I push it down to get the first snap ring in place, the clutch springs back up so I am unable to put the ring in? I have reset the clutch twice and it seems to spring out when I put it in. Is it because my clutch is too worn out?

Hey I have a question… I ordered an aftermarket clutch kit and the new clutch does not have the white marking for the hub to line up…. Should I just copy from the old OEM clutch? Or does it really matter?

Just changed the clutch out did everything correct now went to start and car won’t stay running starts and idle dies down and shuts off any ideas wat it could be I check all wire connections everything looks good would the relearn fix this ? @BigBenCarsAndCycles

Great video, super comprehensive! Im having some trouble breaking free the 2 bolts next to the catalytic coverter, 11:20 , do you have any tips for those or can you share how you back yours out? Thanks in advance!

I have ford transit connect 2017 automatic and it has scrape noises when it go in 1st gear and also when it going down to 2nd and 1st gear from higher gear, do you know if it is the gearbox or just the clutch? it happend after a little too heavy trailer trip.

Great vid. Is there anyway to measure the clutch to see if it’s still good and then reset it using the Ford tool? I’m wondering if it’s worth saving the $400 if I can reuse the clutch and only replace the fork? I searched for a video on measuring the Ford focus clutch and couldn’t find any so that might be worth making if You’re looking for more content to make on the subject

Do you need to unlock clutches when adding new actuators?

Lovely video!! You did a great job. Saving this video. I own a 2014. They want 5600 at a dealer. where do you find the replacement part

My 2014 started making a grinding sound after they replaced the TCM. Dealer says unrelated. 1st and 2nd is loudest. Still drives normal. Any thoughts?

While unlocking the clutch I accidentally let go during the 6th rotation. Will this have any effect on the transmission or can I simply start the process over and rotate the necessary 14 times?

Wondering if you had any guidance on how much play is acceptable on the input shaft. During tear down I noticed this once feels a little sloppy

My transmission overheated now it only has first gear. No reverse. Any suggestions on what I should try first? or just full out replacement?

Do I need to run the tool after installing new clutch to make it “learn”? I’ve heard yea and no, thanks

Did you happen to have an obd code that correlate with this problem? Was this done due to the car shifting harshly or...? Im asking because i have shifting issues and found glitter in my trans fluid. Also have odb codes for transmission

Hey Ben, Just a question here! i got the same kit you have and my Slave came broken. Question is can I use it and just put the ring at the bottom in place or send it back and wait?

When you put averything back you have to programade the transmision or what you have to do?

My 2017 ford foucs got new tcm and fluid change and actuators mine still Stutters at take of and i hear gears turning rough new cluctch im at 105,000 original cluctch

My actuator rod is bad I can see the bearing is messed up it will screw way out so I have no reverse and it slow shifting into other gears and no 6th.

Does anyone know what the latest version of this clutch is. I don't want to get Alpha version.

What is the driver you used to seat the clutch? I can't seem to catch the number on it.

Hey can you help me, I just installed a clutch and forks on my 2013 focus. Go to do the adaptive learn and it gets stuck at Gear command for neutral state on both transmission shafts. It doesn’t fail or pass it just sits there until it tell me to turn off the ignition

Hi all, I have a 2014 ford focus titanium and I just had a transmission specialist say I need a whole new clutch replacement. What would you say that should cost for this make and model and this part/labor needed? I got quoted $3,100 parts and labor. Is that steep? I feel like it shouldn't cost that much. I live in central texas btw.

I haven’t done anything to my DPS6 transmission or clutch. 16 Focus SE . I have the external clutch actuators and need to know if replacing them will help . Soo as I’ve told you before, serious slipping issues with lower gears. Not so much higher gears. The only code I had was P0700 transmission electrical system. That went away since I sanded the two grounds under air filter box and the main one from battery negative side found on firewall driver side. Not getting any transmission codes anymore. Do you think replacing clutch actuators will help ? Any help is appreciated. Try it and maybe it’ll help ? It can’t worsen it ?

I’m about to replace the forks on mine. Did you replace any of the seals? I hear ford updated them to prevent leakage. I’m trying to figure out the part numbers.

Great video!! You got a new subscriber from Mexico!! Could you please share the measurements of the custom handle you made to pull the clutch? Thanks

As far as the seals go, black seals are bad. Orange seals are good. The seals that I just ordered were brown. What does that mean?

i enjoyed ur content and hit that sub good content maybe could u use a light so we could see a little bit better thanks keep up the good work

when unlocking the clutches you said that you will hear a click. I indeed heard a click but I heard multiple, are you supposed to hear more than one click or was that just background noise from the video.

I have finished putting the clutch in, but it will NOT spin freely anymore. As I am pressing the clutch onto the center splines it requires more and more pressure to spin the clutch. This is my third transmission and when i finished the clutch replacement on the other transmissions the clutch would spin easily. Any ideas as to what might be going on?

Pretty good video, BUT no special tools, then tell us need clutch removal tool, clutch install tool, clutch unlock tool, touch point learn tool. Maybe could drop in some links to the tools and do a video on the learn procedure. I can do the homemade removal tool. :) Thanks for the video

Great explanation man. I'm taking mine apart. I can't seem to locate my gearbox number to make sure I order the right clutch kit. Could you help me out? Where can I locate it exactly? I have a 2018 focus se. Thank you.

Are the aftermarket Clutch and fork kits on amazon worth it at around $700?

Sir do you have a video showing process for the adaptive learn ?

How heavy would you say this transmission is? I'm gonna have to drop it and drag from under the car. Thanks so much for this video!

How much trans fluid do I need to refill when installing? 2014 ford focus thanks

Would you know why after changing a transmission the wheels wouldn't spin?

Hey, I have ford Focus 2014 it jerks so much while accelerating from 0 m/h (initial acceleration) but post 20 m/h it is smooth as butter and it does'nt have any check light ON. I tried transmission reset but it doesn't give me any difference. Please let me know what should I do.

Best place for parts and prices on what to replace

I recently got the transmission fluid change and now the transmission is not working properly hard to change gears you think a new Clutch will fix it?

Does the flywheel need to be replaced when doing this?

Do you know the part number for the snap ring(s) you said not to reuse? Thank you for the video by the way :)

What tool do you use to put snap rings back on?

Hey, Ben. It’s me again lol. I bought a remanufactured clutch for a DPS6 (probably ill advised) a while back and I’m just now installing it and the markings are all sand blasted off the front. There is no longer a triangle next to a stud to match up with the triangle on the flex plate. Is there another way to identify which stud on the clutch should go into the whole with the triangle marking on the flex plate? Will it be out of balance and shudder like crazy if I don’t get the right clutch stud into the right hole on the flex plate? Thank you

Would removing the intake manifold help much?

Were you located I got a focus 14 I think it needs the same thing stuck clutch

How much sshould this cost me to have done?if i dont wanna do it myself

Tell me po219 please and thank you

Like the video. 2013 Focus 272000 miles on it. Think the drivers diffential bearing is going bad. How is it removed?

Great

I am requesting your help from Dubai, I have a Ford Figo with DPS6 gearbox the car goes into all the gears perfectly and moves at idle but the the car wont accelerate in gear the car. The rpms would increase in park or neutral but not in drive or reverse. Can anyone help please? No error codes. This problem started when the car was put on lift and shifted in drive then it was put down and gears stopped working.

How do I reset the clutch so I can reuse it.

With the clutch nuts, would it be better to install the 1st one, then skip 2 studs and then attach the 2nd nut as this is the other side of the clutch ? Then skip 1 and attach after that? How critical is this step? I've pulled a trans out, cleaned it all up and reinstalled with a new clutch bearing as the old was was separated, however after doing all the relearn ect there is a slight shudder when reversing. Im tempted to pull the intake and starter, undo all the nuts and then rotate the engine 8 times like you said and then carefully do the nuts up again.

The tool to seat the clutch. Where did you get?

What kind of green coolant is that?

After 70,000 miles I need to have this done. Is it worth it?

You need to paint your sockets and extensions black before using them with an impact wrench.

I just did a clutch on a Ford focus and it clicks when

Did you use the clutch tool to set the clutch down or you just use the fork retraction method to set the clutch

Note for me

Sooo I'm a total idiot right, someone give me insight. I have to relearn the transmission after a clutch and fork job right??

Mk3 auto issued transmission,should convert it to fiesta manual

How much does this transmission weigh??

Hey, I follow your channel and I have a Ford Focus, I'm from another country, would there be any way for me to get in touch with you other than the KZfaq comment? thanks for the answer!
