- In this video, I have enlisted the help of a friend because I’ve never done a clutch before. I was merely the padiwan during this task. It was honestly the worst car based DIY task that I‘ve ever done and you most likely won’t see me doing another clutch again lol. This car was fighting us (no change there, with this car!) at every step of the way. There is lots of corrosion, poor access, poor lighting etc. Also, I know that both CV boots have split. We were unable to repair this while the drive shafts were out because it was late on a Saturday afternoon and nowhere locally had any in stock. That’s a problem for future Dave, when the MOT is due. Anyone who knows the owner knows that she’s no mechanic!
I also apologise for the video too. This is not my finest work because I appear to have lost some of the final bits of footage demonstrating the gearbox oil refilling procedure and the car moving under its own power. Take it from me that the car no longer grinds its own gears when selecting gears and the clutch operates in a normal manner. I test drove it and it runs and drives very well.
Just watched your video, I had the same problem as you but it took me 8 weeks. I injured my back and had no one to help. I ended up buying a second hand engine crane for $100 yesterday and had it in the car in a couple of hours. Like you said, I will never attempt to do a front wheel drive gearbox ever again. Thought your video was great, I actually watched the end most of all as I could not remember how the battery plates etc went back in. Thanks for the video.
I’m glad the video helped! I said I’d never do it again, yet I changed an engine on another car if mine recently. From bad to worse lol.
Just a small tip, when fitting the clutch plate kit, use a clutch alignment tool then the gear box will slide in without too much trouble!
What a pain in the rear end. I applaud your effort! 👏👏👏
It was a gigantic pain in the rear end! If I ever see another clutch again, it’ll be a day too soon 🤣
IMO alot quicker and easier removing the two bolts holding the strut and also slipping caliper off. That will also give you enough room to pop the drive shafts out without heat and special tools etc.
aah sweet, thats exactly what ive done, very true
A little tipi picked up from a friend that works for homer. There is a pant called pond armour is for ponds so it’s a rubber pant he told me he uses it to paint the entire engine bay he said It dose 2 things 1 it provides extremely good sound dampening 2 it’s waterproof so stops corroding, and rotting it’s heat resistant and can be used on your undercarriage. He said it almost bullet-proofs your car. It comes with a 25 year guarantee as use for ponds. So I am thinking if I ever have to take out my engine I will use it. The only downside is that it only comes in Black white green Blue.
That’s a good idea
Thank you for the video. Have the job ahead of me ...
If I can offer any advice, it’s be patient with it and clean everything off as you go. It makes re-assembly far easier.
Great video. I am about to do my daughter's clutch on her 1.1l 2008 Getz. I presume you only need to remove one side wishbone & hub assembly? Also do you need a clutch alignment tool, or could I use a socket or bar of correct diameter. Cheers
A socket and a bar will do fine, but a clutch alignment tool would be gold standard. Should only need to remove the one side for access.
Video not showing everything 😢😢
I hate doing FWD clutches, they are usually always a struggle. Old Transhitters were the best, half hour job lol
Agreed! If I ever see another clutch again, it’ll be a say too soon. Automatics all the way for me👌🏻
Have to agree with you, the old ones were in an out in a couple of hours, that is also allowing for a couple of cold ones and a discussion with mates.
I have 180k on the clock since new in 2006.Still on original clutch.It doesn’t get better than that.
Very good effort! As long as you can treat it nicely from new, you have complete control over it. With the way this one has been abused by previous owners, I’m surprised it lasted this long.
Hi, great video :)
Just wanted to ask; the sensor you unplugged at 2:50, is that the crankshaft pulse sensor corresponding to OEM number 96420-4A600 ?
Thanks :)
Very good question, well presented, I don’t know lol. All I did was unplug for access and plug it back in again when the job was done. Sorry I couldn’t be of any further help.
@@DABDIY the one at the top is for the reverse light
My getz run slow wth high rpm is that the cause must change the clutch asembly?
It certainly sounds like clutch slip to me.
Hi one question plz. I hv same car and same model my cars slave cylinder leaked and it’s been replaced to new one and it’s been properly bleed aswelll there is no air left in it but now after replacing clave cylinder clutch don’t go down all the way it only go down 3 quarter and then it locks up. But it dines come back as normal. Caz it only go down 3 quarter I can’t get it in gear … Do u have any idea what went wrong there do I need new clutch now. When we open bleeding but to do bleeding the pedal did go down all the way but once but been tightened back it only go down 3 quarter. Please will be great if you advise me what went wrong ?? Do I need new clutch or do u think is will be master cylinder but the master cylinder is not leaking. I am confused what’s wrong with it. Please give advice. Will be great help. Thanks
I’ll be honest, I don’t know. It could as simple as it still need bleeding or it could be a master cylinder or clutch. I wouldn’t want to guess and give you duff information.
@@DABDIY I have don’t bleeding 3 times and keeps filling fluid up to level slave cylinder is new there is no leak on master cylinder. But clutch does go down all the way while bleeding as soon as bleeding but tightened it lock the clutch up to 3 quarter. Can we adjust the pedal or clutch I don’t know how to adjust on hydraulic like mine. If u know plz advise. Thanks
@ifshif5459 without examining, I’d just be guessing. I wouldn’t know where to start with that one, I’m sorry I can’t help you any further.
Hello
How much you would think all that cost ?
Im trying to change mine and I don’t want to get screwed
If it were to be done at a garage, I should imagine £300-400, that sort of area.
Why did you get gearbox oil??
It’s always best practice to change the gearbox oil when changing a clutch. There’s no documentation in the service history of the vehicle to tell us when it was last done. All oil has a life span, so it’s always a good idea to change the oil.
how many liters of gear oil did you use? Thanks
It’s been so long since going this job, I couldn’t tell you how much. A Haynes manual will have all the information you need, they’re reasonably priced too.
Is it successfully clutch plates
The clutch plates went in and were driven & bedded down successfully. The car hasn’t had a problem since installing the new clutch.
How much does it cost to change the clutch?
I have no idea. That would be a question that you’d have to pose to your local mechanic.
Starter motor dont remove ?
Honestly, it’s been that long, I can’t remember!
Got the money out of the clutch lol
That’s one way of putting it 🤣
