You probably took more care, and attention to this rebuild than most garages whoud have done, top man ,😁👍
Took care good work !
Because us mechanics don't have all day to clean and change everything for heck of it we have a time limit set by the labour times and you customers wanting it back same day so we have to get it in and out. Being mechanic isn't like you see on CZcams the alot of pressure and deadlines
I find these kind of videos way more rewarding and interesting than videos that are like
“Hey guys, I just bought a new bmw m4 on lease 🥴”
Love the camera work and showing us fully what you are doing. Keep this up man, love it!
Me aswell.👍
Or the ones that are 'how to install go faster stripes'. Love James he gets right down to the nitty-gritty.
@@craigc1615 Ooh, yeah. Those channels. Some channels have like 200 videos about "working" on cars. But only maybe 5 videos actually do anything - usually just changing the suspension to coilovers.
@@VortechBand and you see how many subscribers they have. Like how?? Hahaha. Have a good day!
Fascinating! You are one very clever man. 👍🏻
I take my hat off to you, fair play for tackling that in your shed, I like doing most my mechanics myself and personally I would never have touched a job like this but after seeing you doing it I would consider giving it a go.👍
Really enjoyed the gearbox rebuild, thanks!
This is amazing. Level 10 car mechanics! Can you do more "driving after job" sections in the video? Like how did the mondeo bushes affect the drive?
Hi James, Glad to see your back on form, great vid, and hats off to you for tackling a gearbox rebuild - well done
For the reverse switch, VAG cars don't tend to have a washer for the switch - I've found adding a washer actually pushes the switch too far out so it doesn't get pressed enough by the lever to activate the reverse lights. Good work though James.
This would have been true but with the new switch I bought it has extra length to make up for the washer 😬
@@TheSavageGarage Ahhh, all good then!
Nice job James! You have really come along way since the early days. Keep up the great work we all enjoy your content thank you!
I look forward to watching your videos James! I've been watching for years but never left comments before. I particularly like your honesty when mistakes are made and your views on avoidance of cheap tools. Keep up the great work and I hope your subscriber numbers keep increasing. I look forward to the next instalment of Savage Garage magic! Keep safe and carry on;-)
Watching your videos makes me feel like I can do anything mate, really appreciate the time and effort you put into these
The drift set can also be used on your new press👍
Also its a good idea to lubricate any seals / O rings......going in dry can be painful 😬
Especially if it's up the rear shuffle tube 😂😂 Any rings should always be lubed!
Yes lube them up. Helps them stay in place too. Ive nipped far too many in the past wasting hours of time.
I find it very efficient that you didn't need to clean too much of the box, saves a lot of time. Even the internal bits didn't need oiling on assembly, because the old oil with bits of metal infused was still there. And a sentimental blob of shitty grease left on the driveshaft couplers was a pleasure to view, but the highlight for me was the amazing excessive silicone used on mating surfaces. Plenty of excess on the inside to mix through the oil. Overall kudos for tackling the job, but oh dear - some easily corrected steps not taken. The box will live long enough to see out the car, but if a job is worth doing do it properly. Plenty of time for cleaning while waiting for parts.
Kudos to you for doing such a good job on your FIRST gearbox rebuild. This is actually considered to be specialist work👍
Sat watching this and I thought; this guy is a genius. Excellent video.
Top work James, looking forward to the next video.
I the had privilege to of worked in an old skool garage (Shiplake Motors) near Henley On Thames, where the owner (Alan Freebody) to which despite being 63 with two plastic hips, didn't think twice about whipping out a mk2 Transit gearbox onto his shoulder and get on the bench to strip and rebuild it. He was very much can it be repaired rather than replaced mentality.
Really pisses me off to see people putting thumbs down on videos that the creator has obviously worked hard at making, these people have nothing else better to do than sit behind there phone or computer getting jealous that they're not capable of doing the job there watching
About the seal puller. I too bought a cheap one, but I drilled a hole through where it bends and stuck a small bolt and nut through it so now it's fixed. Works a treat
Test those gears before fitting great video showing it not impossible for someone with little knowledge and a willingness to learn can do most car mechanics
Love watching your videos mate love the content can't wait for next video best car youtuber going
Fair play to you really enjoyed that rebuild. Its great you are sharing the learning curb. Very impressive
Marvelous job, James and way better executed than most gearbox overhaul companies . The attention for the details is astonishing!!!
Only just discovered your channel very recently, really enjoy the content and detail in the videos. I’m sad enough to say that I’ve watched pretty much all of your videos now and it’s motivated me to get my tools back and start working on cars again! Keep up the good content
Hats off to you, mate!
It’s been really interesting to watch this little series and it’s great to see what can be achieved at home! I’m looking forward to seeing the first drive!
👍👍
Proper Luvley Job Jimmy Boy, You've Come A Long Way Since i First Started Watching.
First Class Boy.
Baz.
What a soothing anti-stress Video. Positive progress and relaxing music.
And James gains in confidence piece by piece.
Thank you for encouraging us and showing us the way.
Great series so far James. Loving it ❤👍👊🤘
Best video I've seen in a long time mate
Another great video James, really love your content! well done. :)
Hi James. To answer the 5th gear question. The gear on its own is 5th gear. The other side is the synchro/hub
another great upload james and a cracking job pal 100% smashed it 👌🏻
Brilliant work, great to see you have the courage to tackle such jobs.
Really impressed with your work like a gearbox guru av been doing cars vans and have only done the same as you twice in 40 years good job mate 👍
Top job James well done.10/10
Loving this gearbox series, great job explaining stuff along the way
Top job James, really enjoying your Skoda gearbox vids. Keep up the great work 👍
Nicely done James looking forward to seeing the it back in the car and up and running
I was always taught when using liquid gasket use very little, just enough to make a seal, after torquing down the amount of sealant of sealant on the outside equates to the same amount on the inside. Besides your saving money on sealant .
Thanks for making this video really enjoyed watching it.
I am very impressed in how easily you put that gearbox back together. Well done! I also enjoyed the music, just right for the assembly.
I bet that runs mint now James, spot on job
Absolutely brilliant James you’re nailing this rebuild 👌The video is great too mundane is not a word I’d use to describe it in my opinion Inspiring,enjoyable and informative are much better words to use. Top class work mate looking forward to seeing the box back in the car 😎
Now this was one clear gearbox teardown! Loved it.
Well done james for getting the gearbox all back together. this video is really interesting to watch.. thanks for all your video work..
Hey, I had rewatched both previous vids at 3 am.. Went to work at 8 am and by noon you came through with perfect timing.. As always great and inspiring work! First time transmission job like it was your 500th.. 👍
Detailed, good audio and great video quality in case no one has mentioned it before. I've been watching since the British green mini and your awesome at consistently keeping up with all that. Keep it ☝
Well done James, really enjoy watching your videos and look forward to the next one.
Best CZcamsr for these kind of vehicle repair videos
Fair play for giving that a go and hope it’s spot on after it’s back in the car. Recent vids are why I started watching your channel in the first place 👍
Really enjoyed watching these videos hoping all works 100% when back in the car, thumbs up lad great work
Wood like to say well done so far, it doesn't matter how long you have been doing cars or how long you have been a mcanic you will all ways learn and keep learning and learn some thing everyday well done again, 👍
Thank you very much for this informative video, I have learnt a lot and I'm now ready to rebuild my MK5 gearbox which is also suffering from worn out input shaft bearing.
Great series of videos - thanks very much.
Keep up the good content mate! Really enjoyed this series!
Enjoying this little series great stuff
Awesome learnt lots off new tricks can now rebuild my own gearbox great work James 👍
Amazing Vid, tackling a gearbox build in your shed on your own!!! Gotta give respect, always keeping an eye out for your videos 🤙🤙🤙
Really enjoyed watching this gearbox service pal .You done a right good job of that ✊👊✊
Yeeees I have been waiting on this one 😍😍😍
Really enjoyed this gearbox edition. Awesome stuff.
Good effort mate, I have just stripped down the gearbox on my T5 and this video really helped. Thanks
Great series of videos. I look forward to you driving it!! Thanks
Brilliant video sir, much respect can’t wait for the road test
Don’t worry mate, your content has stepped up a notch. I’m really enjoying it. Nice variety of driveway versus shed work. Good stuff.
love seeing the gearbox rebuild, well done.
That is so satisfying to watch love the video
Well done mate, awesome rebuild.
Great job James - well done and thanks
Nice work bro 👏 Keep it up. Good luck with the fitting 👍
Excellent. Good to see all the theory in the manuals actually put into practise. I'm glad you chose to refurbish it rather than just put a new one in, it has made for a really entertaining set of videos. I hope we get to see the test drive!
Loving your videos, keep them coming .
Looks like good work so far mate - can't wait to see it back in the car and the key turned!
Massive respect to you mate, I tend to do a lot of DIY on the car but haven't got the bollocks to go this in depth. I would also like to point out that the passion you have in doing this would put a lot of people to shame!
I know you like things clean, surprised you havn't got a partswasher yet... well done for doing the gearbox.
Really enjoying these recent videos, a ton of work but great videos 👍
very well done mate 👍 did a good job of that nice rebuild
Lovely Jubbly, enjoyed that James thanks, good luck getting it back into the car.
brilliant and informative series James. Thanks.
Well done James, As you said, new skills learned. The next one won't be as daunting.
Splendid!!! Make a BIG «caution tag» on the gearbox so you dont forget to fill it up with oil. So easy to forget at this stage... Lookin´ forward to the followup
Good to see a local guy doing in depth mechanical vlogs keep it up james 👍
Well done you have done really well and I have really enjoyed watching the full series and you have a amazing chance buddy 😀 👍
Well done and fingers crossed. It certainly looks like a good job.
Really enjoyed the gearbox rebuild with plenty of contents
Great James. Well done would never attempt a job like this so!! Well done again !! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏴
Well done James. Hats off yet again, your great to look up to for confidence for the DIY'ERS. Always love Reading the comment section for extra tips, thanks guys. 👊
Really enjoyable, gearboxes have always been a scary mystery to me 😀
Awesome videos. Thanks for sharing. It is very informative. Hopefully I will be able to do this one day 😁
Nice job James can’t wait to see you get it back on the car
It takes a brave man to take a gear box apart and rebuild it (definitely out of my league). Respect James! Looking forward to it being fitted and tested. Fingers crossed 🙂 Top guy 👍
great interesting videos on gear box rebuild so far so good
Quality content as usual james
Excellent that, really interesting stuff.
Great video, that was a lot of work well done
Good job that man! Nice one mate, your videos are cracking mate! Should be proud my man 👨
Amazing video as ever very talented mate keep it up 👍
Well done James a fantastic video 👍👍👍
if I would have known one of my mates works at skoda could have got you everything you needed, great video mate and professional coming from a mechanic 🙌
Have had to build all sorts of transmissions over the years and a good way to get interference type bearings into housings is to heat up or chill the components in an oven/hot plate/ refrigerator as appropriate. In your case gear set in fridge and gearbox casing in oven. You don’t have to go mad with it time wise but the difference it makes to putting it back together is crazy. Kudos to you for doing this yourself
I may be too late but the gearbox will go back in a lot easier if you don't fit the drive shaft flange till you have it in. The passenger side one is ok like but the drivers side will foul you on the way in. That's why you had such trouble on the way out.👍 Top job by the way, I'm impressed 👍
Great video ... can’t wait for the next vid
Great job and nicely edited video. Just a tip (from someone who's done it and paid the price) - all that excess silicone you smeared on the outside is also on the inside! Bits can come loose and get into oilways etc - that can be an expensive mistake. Go easy on the stuff.
