The Ninja Mechanic is absolutely experienced since he works like a surgeon! Very nice video!

I did same job as you in under 3 hours. Thanks man, you saved me lots of headache and money. Probably best DIY ”guide” what I watched

Great work as ever Kevin. And no swearing. Lots when I swapped a dual mass for a single on a seat Altea. Bolts and I don't see eye to eye. All the best.

Kev you have saved me a lot of time and headache trying to figure it out as my focus 1.6 2005 needs it's clutch swapping. Only difference is my pal is letting me use his shop that has a pit. Great effort showing us how it's done.

Wow Kevin, Ive watched so many of your vids now and they are all excellent and informative. I watched this in particular as I may be changing a Focus clutch myself. You are a legend, the only problem is, you are so skilled and make such awesome step by step vids that my mind is telling me I can do this in my lunch hour !!!!!. Maybe I should give myself the whole day. Thank you Kevin, excellent job as ever.

I used this video to change the clutch in a Mazda 2. Excellent video and thanks as it was most helpful since I had never worked on a Ford or Mazda before. All my family’s cars are Peugeot/Citroen.

I remember those good old days on my back and gearbox on me chest,we had no gearbox jacks then,miss those days good video

Another great vid, well done Kevin, always a pleasure to watch.

Morning Kevin,another masterclass,thought i would let you know i got the clutch swapped out in my 2013 swift sport but not quite in the 3 hours it took you!actually it was 3 days but hey who,s counting,I now appreciate your abilities even more but at least its job done so thanks for the initial encouragement to diy and i quite like the impression of a suzuki gearbox left on my chest!!Keep safe

He is the best ever on here by far, amazing.

Thank you so much !!! I've just changed the clutch on my mother in law's Ford Focus. Great job 👏👏👏

Excelente profesional 👍 mis felicitaciones!!! 👏 Nunca en mis años había visto algo así, impecable tu trabajo Kevin 💪

What a guy!! How does he remember were all the bolts go ? One of the best deserves a medal working on your back like that unbelievable

Wow you make this look so easy great work no nonsense talking just crack on 🤙

Job done, thanks to your video Kevin....For others looking at doing this at home, highly recommend a good battery impact driver, as access to some bolts is diifficult. Allow time to clean underside of engine and gearbox, ideally jet wash before starting on the clutch. Remember to loosen the 3 nuts on each strut top to enable to move the strut around when removing the drive shafts, have spares available in case need replacing...i.e new circlip for LHS drive shaft, drive shaft seals, ball joint boots, new knuckle pinch bolts and nuts. I used SACHS/ZF High Performance grease 4200 080 050 especially made for input shafts......also working under a gazebo and using same rubber floor tiles made it more comfortable to do this work.... I used a small motorcycle mini hydraulic jack with a flat area to support the gearbox, when raising up to the engine, and once in position, used a small ratchet strap to hold gearbox in place, then removed the jack for working room, so could easily jiggle the box without holding the weight until it slid on the engine...don't forget to donate some of the money you have saved via Kevin's paypal account as a thank you...

Perfect Work as allways !

Tökéletes munka! Perfekt!

Beau boulot . Tout mes respects !

Kevin, Great video and repair - thank you! The 2003 Focus with the 2.0L Zetec engine you posted in March had the MTX75 trans (same combo on my US 2002) and the 1.6L engine on this one has the IB5 trans. Interesting that you used basically the same technique to remove both but on the Zetec/MTX75 you loosened the subframe and on this one you didnt seem to need to do that. I did see your response to my comment at that video - thank you very much. Keep up the great work. Cheers Paul (in MA USA) ps I had never seen the type of clutch alignment tool you use before. Interesting!

Nice one it's a nightmare doing a clutch on the deck you made it look easy your the clutch ninja mate 👌👍👏👊

Hello Kevin, thanks for a great video...I have the same job to do on my Mk1 in a couple of weeks. I like that you clean the flywheel and gearbox as part of the job.....and the red grease for the bolt holes......have sorted out most of the tools I need to do the job, including a steel round bar...... I have to work outside too...

Amazing video. Thank you so much! Very detailed

Hi Kevin, great video as always! I've just done a clutch change on a VW EOS 1.4 TSI - took me 2 days due to a rounded off driveshaft bolt..wish I had the strength to effortlessly lift a gearbox whilst laying down...now my spaghetti arms feel like jelly!

Big like from Romania !!! 🇷🇴

Good work mate, great video 👍

The video is great, but took my Dad 1.5-2 days to do from a home garage - the gear box is cumbersome and needed to be lifted down and then back in using a jack, blocks and a lot of wriggling - certainly not by hand! Thank you!

Tu es un génie mec

Another awesome video dude!! Hope your staying busy!

Hi kevin luv the work you do buddy and all of your vids, amazing👌

You are a professional

After years finaly i found out how to remove oil from gearbox on this machine . Everybody told me that bolt is dangerous to remove it ... Thanks 🙏

Cok güzel olmuş ellerine sağlık usta

This channel needs to called the Clutch ninja

You are Clutch GOD!

Best Men... Great Job...

Very good job bro

Bravo kevin

Top quality hammer and steel bar you have there Kevin

I love those 1.6 Zetec SEs... revy and bullet proof....

Boo... Great video Kevin as always thanks brvha Regards

Esse sim é profissional 👍

Great video. Helped me change my slavecylinder. Why did you put on grease (or what it was) at approx 24:05? Anybody knows why?

BRAVO NICE JOB

que capo que sos!! aunque no entiendas español, quiero que sepas que sos un capo!!!!!

How much fluid did you add and which oil was it? I’m about to put the gearbox back on, doing the exact same job. It’s my first time. Thanks for your help!

Kevin random question my friend... Your 1/2 inch impact is that been the same 1 you have used in all your videos if so its done really well.. Sorry i like tools... :)

7:58 This was what i've been searching for for a long time on KZfaq... where the other end of the gear lever cables end 👌. My gear lever has a lot of slack, i guess I've got to go look there.

What gear box oil did you use and how much did you put back in may I ask?

eazy work 👍🤘

Thx i have tomorrow this car voor de clutch

Hola amigo me gusta tu video un saludo de madrid,

Loved watching this but was very envious as when i did mine on the 1.8 zetec engine i had to drop the sub to let the box out

He has that ball-joint pinch bolt removal down to a fine science.

You deserve every penny for all that messing about 👍👍

Fantastic video, really good guide. How much oil need to put in gear box, and is their some cheaper one time use tool for clutch alignment??

Hi Kevin. You mentioned before in comments you like doing these jobs, but which car do you least look forward to for changing a clutch lol? French? Vauxhall's? jobs which include dropping subframe? Or you like them all 😃?

Hi I was just wondering what size are the bolts on the bell housing. Thanks

What liquid are you spraying on plate and bell housing?

You make this look like it’s easy! I struggled just getting the damn drive shafts off and made a right mess! 😂

great car video..... where the guy making it dont spend 10 mins talking to the camera....remember doing a 3 door cossie with a t5 on the chest back in the day......impact gun is the way forward.......make up 2 long studs....screw in to the block...this helps line up the box on the splines......cheers......

Can you swing torque converters too?

Thanks

Hi Kevin, how long did this one take you in real time? & What would be the book time out of interest

Good my friend !!!! Et je 👍👍👍👍

Great video! I’m gonna be doing mine soon but I have a couple questions, How much transmission fluid did you put in? Where did you get the little bung to stop the clutch fluid from going everywhere? Thank you for the video

I whas thinking of doing this on my own, afther seeing this i dont think it's smart XD a lot of work, i wish you where in the netherlands.

Hi Kevin what weight is the hammer you use 24oz or 32oz ?

What is the swivel peace on the end of your gun actually called? Excellent work by the way 👍

I see you drain the gearbox oil on the lower bolt. is the gearbox in neutral during that time? Ive read that it can f..ck up the trainsmission if it moves when that bolt is removed. Im a bit afraid to drain with that but I see you use it confidenty all time.

Dear Kevin, I have a simple question, you have to drain the oil from the transmission in any case? Thank you.

Hi Kevin looks like the gearbox driveshaft seal been leaking a little.do they often get changed or not really

do you change clutch for a living?

👍🏽clutches warrior

po co smarujesz otwory w skrzyni?

Always watch your videos. Seen you bleed the clutch many times Can i ask some advice please? Today ive wanted to change clutch fluid on 2008 honda civic type r as its dirty.. I pressed clutch in 5 or 6 times then held it in with piece of wood When i undo bleed nipple on slave nothin came out, not even a drip.. Tried again couple times, still nothin Then i tried leavin bleed nipple open with clear tube on going into bottle with brake fluid in and pumping the pedal few times, still nothing I took the bleed nipple out to check if it was blocked, no fluid came out the slave when id removed bleed nipple..... And the nipples fine, no blockage..

Those pinch bolts can be a real pita.

An other great job, who looks like easy for you...how many hours for complete this job?

Hi Kevin, absolute geninus mate, make it look so easy wish i was mechanically minded, i have a focus mk1 on a y reg 1.6, needs the front control arms/wishbones changing on both sides as they knocking quite loud due to really worn bushing, is it an easy job to change them? Andy from bolton

did you have to remove the shift knob? before starting this job ?

Muito bom.

Which oil filler have you got, the large syringe.

Thanks to your video and my already known knowledge managed to do it in 5 hours. Thank you so much for this video. The clutch wouldn't bleed and I had a pressure bleeder but that didn't work. Do you know of any reasons for this. No matter what I did fluid would not come through.

Would this work for a Ford Focus 1.8L Diesel MK1 from 2001? thanks and great vid

What fluid did you use to clean the parts?

super man

Silent auto ninja!

How much gearbox oil did u put in it

Had a new clutch fitted at 1st the clutch pedal bite point was at the bottom now it's gone all the way backup to the top, why

Have you ever broke anything when you been replacing a clutch

Unapregunta donde esta el motor arranque es que en nigun video lo evisto sacar

👍

Where did you find that alignment tool?

You don't need a torque wrench for retorquing?

Ciao con che prodotto hai lavato il volano, sgrassatore

Hello, how many Nm for flywheel because I must change? 112Nm? Greetings

5:51 the money shot.

May I suggest a channel name change to something more “catchy” clutch ninja or something thereabouts? 😊 only joking, love the vids.

3:12 will show my shop, I wasted money on axle nuts my fault, thought I needed them, he proves you do not, and no alignment issues either as my newly installed tie rod ends will stay put and my alignment will be same. It will be done to mine in a week or less. Shop did not say I needed the nuts, I will make sure they drain the newish, EXPENSIVE Ford oil too and re-use it. Ford now says DCT oil can be used in the MTX75, it is easier to find, whilst being $10 cheaper.
