  • Hi Its BMACVAGS here, in this video I show how to Repair the common sticky gear issues found on the Alfa 147 & 156 Cars. The problem is caused by worn gearbox bushings which are cheap and reasonably easy to replace with some simple tools. I usually only do VWs and Audi's, but the main purpose of my videos are to help people. Thank you for the support, and I hope this video helps.

    Good video, one thing I did was to spray the whole area daily for 5 days with penetrating oil, then when I came to do the job it went really smoothly everything came off and went back on easily, I also lubed the pin with copper grease before reassembly.

  • @FunktapusGaming4Lyf
    @FunktapusGaming4Lyf Před 2 lety

    Great stuff. Only thing I would suggest to you and everyone is try and obtain some Silicone Grease, ..not sealant but grease. Plumbers suppliers or Amazon sell tubs of it.
    It's the recommended grease where metals and rubber constantly move. It won't dry or destroy the rubber.
    That or red rubber grease.

  • @zedman442
    @zedman442 Před 7 lety +2

    Vaseline may not be a great idea on rubber as its petroleum and can degrade rubber. Maybe some silicone grease or general purpose grease would be fine. Nice job.

  • @heywhyerd
    @heywhyerd Před 7 lety +4

    I am not ridiculing, but the vaseline might not be compatible with the gromet, it is petroleum based and and I think petroleum brakes down over time, silicone paste is the safer option.

    Vasoline is really the wrong lubrication for this job, It's a petroleum based product and will perish rubber, Use silcone grease for rubber parts that need lubrication!

      christian onida You are wrong, Alfa 147/156/GT are similar.
      Alfa 159/Brera it's completly newer platform.
