Do you know if Fram Filters will fit on these, brought a couple from eBay..

Slowly getting the parts to do this on my MK2 Octavia Estate, started doing a lil' lumpy idle'ing recently so guessin it needs a clear out..

This is a pretty pointless video you haven’t shown how you replaced the seal! Hardly step by step😂

Hi great video thanks. Would this video apply for the Skoda Octavia Mk2 also???

U mnie nie trzeba wcisnąć pedałów hamulca. Pokazuje ze uruchomione. Po chwili zakańcza ze wzgledow bezpieczeństwa. Please help. Crafter II 2.0btdi

Hello, is it possible that by disconnecting the positive first some control unit goes haywire?

Your fuckin video is ass it didn't tell me a thing smmfh

While it was already off, I would've pulled out the headlights and cleared the hole for the turnsignal bulbs and installed new bulbs(just for preventative maintenance while the hole front is off so why not) and then mount the "service" lid(Skoda part 5L0998295) you need to purchase so you in the future can get to the turn signal bulbs with two screws instead of having to remove the hole front of the car again. My bulbs are working but I'm going to do it now just to remove a future headache, because it always happens when you need it the least. No idea why Skoda thought it was a good idea to not punch a hole through there like it is infront of the other bulbs, so you actually need to remove the front bumper and headlights and then try to rip a hole in the headlight unit and install the lid that schould've been factory installed in the first place. Anyhow, for the two "hidden" bolts that hold the front I saw another video and maybe coming in from the top and down with a bendable socketholder could be the thing. Obviously it depends on how easy/hard the bolts are holding on to the threads, because you definitely don't want to strip the heads in that place. Think'll apply some anti-seize on those bolts once I need to install them again so they won't rust.

thank you so much man, been at it for like 3 hours and my thumbs hurt but since i watched your video it was like magic

Brilliant video thanks can you tell me what the yellow cables are for?

Got thanks for the video good sir you saved my hide

Nope 😂 didn’t work ordered a KMC

7:27 this point was so difficult to follow on the paper instructions but your video helped. Highlighting the correct sides would help alot!!

Thanks so much for this!! Super helpful

Legend!, was struggling with these on the cbf600, found your video by chance! Saved a lot of frustration

Thank you Jon, you are an absolute LEGEND. Was wrestling with fitting the chain and the quick link and then I watched your video and BOOM 💥 it was done. I was in shock. I am going to link your video on my Amazon review to help others. Thanks again. 😀😀🥳🎉

What was wrong with tbe old quick link design?

I ordered 2 chains and both came with bent quick links

Thank you so much for this video. With the help of this video I was able to replace the bearings on my Siemens iQ700. We actually left the outer casing hanging in the springs; it was a bit clumsy, but that way we didn't have to remove the motor or the heating element or even most of the electrics. Removing the bearings themselves was a hard job because they were broken and rusted into the drum casing (the machine is 14 years old), so it required like 2 days of knocking and pulling and lubricant. But once that was done, putting in new bearings was straightfoward, and the video helped in putting the machine back together. Really appreciate you sharing this, I never would have endeavoured this without a video guide to rely on, and now our machine runs anew :)

Good grief, i ended up chucking the thing and using standard quick links that i had. Theyre more trouble than theyre worth. Thanks for the video

bought some hella cleantech 2.0 aledgedly compatible with the E84 and none of the clips on their multiclip system appears to be compatible

You absolute legend, saved me a lot of time!!

Thank you so very much for this detailed tutorial, it’s by far the best I have seen and the only one that really gives me confidence to do this myself. I have owned two polo 9n and this issue has affected both of them on different doors. There are tutorials on how to fix the micro switches that cause this issue, but seeing how much work is involved in this I feel more confident just changing the whole door lock mechanism as you did. I took the boor card off once to take a look and stopped when I saw the steel plate behind the door card, even taking the door card off I would have benefited greatly from your tip to turn the door card upside down to remove the door latch cable .

My VW Golf is from 2018. However, I do not see any inscription “with Sillikat” on my reservoir. Can I then assume that I do not have a sillicat bag in my reservoir?

Thank you so much for posted this. I am a pretty good wrench and I almost gave up trying to do this not knowing how. Now I do know how and WAY less difficult! Thanks you! -Larry

Really useful thank you

Not the widest table I've seen.

Didn’t find bleed option on vw amarok 2.0 TDI

Thank you for the excellent instructions. The battery changed like a charm.

Thanks! The secret was bending the chain with way more force than you’d think you should!

Great video! Can you tell me if the two drain bolts are the same part number? You listed the bolt for the front of the engine which I'm guessing is the one just above the oil filter. Is that the same as the main drain bolt (down by the shifter)?

After many attempts, my thumbs hurt sooo BAD

Thank you! This was very helpful and following each step I was able to fix this myself without too much hassle. Those metal clips are a bear to get the dispenser loose though!

The Shimano instructions state: 'Loosen the chain' which makes no sense. I suspect they are nervous about heavy-handed users causing a permanent bend in the link, so they decided to be ambiguous or misleading. Thanks for confirming what I suspected was the only option.

I followed Shimano instructions but no joy. I followed the video which helped with the bending but the best I could manage was to locate the link on the pin but not fully home. The bending kept pushing the pin out at the back so I only had a slight bit of the end left to play with. A gentle nip with some pliers gave me the satisfying click that it was fully home.

Thank you, it helped me save a nice garmin!

Can you do a video on how to replace the maf/map sensor?? Struggling to locate it in ny engine bay 😫

I don't understand 😮

Do you know if it's the same used for an Octavia mk4?

Listen when I was a kid we'd use a nail ,hammer, and a nut, we never had a money for stuff, as a parent's would spend every penny in the pub

greeting does it have to be pink g12 antifreeze or can i pour green antifreeze

Hello Jon I would like to replace just the lip or door. Could you please explain me how to extract it I believe that it should be easier

Thanks a lot!

Thanks, other octavia mk3 videos had a bit different configuration. Good tips!

Jon, the coolant in a Skoda Octavia collapsed. I need the replace it. I added a coolant cleaner to the cooling system. Now I need to drain the whole cooling system to remove the cleaner and the old coolant. But, just 3 l (Skoda manual says coolant is 8,4 l) came out. How to get the rest out of the system? Which hose needs to be removed to drain everyhting? I removed the hose at the right side of the cooler because it's the lowest point. Coolant should follow gravity by no avail. Thx for help.

Hi can you tell me were you got the "Long bolt for suspension arm" (Stretch bolt lower front) from please

"Have faith & persevere." Mad respect to you man and all the warriors doing this om the floor of a busy parking lot in the sun! Humble tip for less experienced diy's, when you tight 90 degrees with extensions to the front of the car, put some wood under the ratchet (or the tire) so the extension assembly doesn't float in the air, and it will be a breeze.. because if the sockets jump off the bolt your fingers will kiss the ground lightning speed. And your back will thank you also. Subscribed!

Does the receiver cup come with the kit you listed?

Thank you sooooo much! I had been struggling and just couldn’t see how it fitted. It was the “bending in” that helped! Cheers!
