I’ve done a few suspension parts in my life , when I was younger, ok we didn’t have the power tools you have now , but Jesus Kevin you are a strong man
At 47:02 when you unscrew lower swing arm bolt, you can see whole wheel column go down - this is because it's under tension from bushing rubber. When you tighten the new one, you do it in lower position, when you lower the car, rubber bushing will be under tension in resting position. You should tighten both of these bolts when the car is on wheels or tighten it in horizontal position (with the car) and then force it down.
I have watched a lot of your videos and I am delighted wirh your work. Did anyone ever offer you a coffee, lunchor something? I live in Serbia, here it is something we do, mandatory.
I’ve been watching your channel for a long time, from distant Russia. While viewing, three questions arose: 1) when replacing all the arms in the suspension, why didn’t they replace the ball joint? 2) when tightening the bolts, the car must be on its wheels so that the silent block works in the desired plane. 3) when replacing the fuel filter, it is necessary to bleed the fuel line through the VSDC program (in Russia we have an analogue “Vasya Diagnostic”. In general, I watch your videos with pleasure, a lot of educational information.
Russia 🇷🇺 🍻🍻🍻 Car is going for wheel alignment. So it doesn’t really matter much Bleeding fuel filter 2 x 30 secs cycle of ignition before starting. Ball joint will get replaced when I remove complete leg to work on top suspension arms and top suspension mount. Also all rear suspension arms .. that will be in next video. Also all rear subframe bushes incl all gearbox and engine mount bushing in further videos ..
Fantastic work as always sir. That stuff you sprayed in the air filter housing was that just brake cleaner ? Anyway great to watch your videos as always. I'll watch the clutch one that went up yesterday after this one, have a good one.
Yes when the vehicles weigh is placed on the bushings because they have been torqued unloaded they will have a twisting force on them which can lead to premature failure! All service manuals state to torque everything when the vehicle is on the ground! But no one does it!
@@WMCS exactly, i tried it a couple of times, apparently its meant to remove brake carrier bolts, but it struggles to get them out even after they’re cracked loose, its been sitting in my locker ever since.
Your videos are brilliant mate, i have recently inherited a macanS diesel and your videos have saved me afortune as a mechanic ❤️💪❤️ when doing your oil change did you drain a full 8 liters? As some places say 8liters full fill/6.5 for service? Maybe its if they suck the oil out instead of sump plug only difference i can think of? Thanks
Hello Mr Williams, Sir, I have a 2006, Ford Fusion 1.6 Duratec Petrol. I got a new original valeo self starter motor installed in it but i feel the clutch has also become hard after the self replacement. It takes more force now to press the clutch pedal. I got the complete clutch,pressure plate and release bearing changed a few months back. My car has done about 80000 kms till date. Do you think sir,that changing a self starter motor could have caused the clutch to become harder? Kindly help. Thank you.
@@WMCS Thank you for your reply. The clutch was working absolutely fine but the clutch pedal got hard after the self starter motor was changed. Gear shift is still fine but the clutch pedal has got hard. I have knee pain therefore i require a soft clutch pedal.
@@WMCS It was fitted the correct way and was working absolutely fine till self was changed. Kindly let me know if changing/installing the self motor affects the clutch settings. Thank you
The Bolts for the Controlarms has to be fastened when ther Car is on the ground on its wheels. This is important! You give too much force on the Bushings when they are are in the wrong position.

Nice to see you have time to service your own car 👍🏴
Thanks for that treat. I really enjoyed. I have said it before but will say again, "lots of patience to do your line of work!"
Just checked in haven’t watched one of your videos for a year you have come far nice equipment
Thanks for the video and I'm happy to see you extend your scope of work in addition to clutches change. Best regards 👍
That’s it. Finger in a few pies. 🥧
A change is as good as a rest...so my auntie tells me😊
Never saw that kind of air filter. Must be expensive. Great work as always.
what a beast of a motor, love your Macon Kevin and i bet it feels much tighter with new bushes 👌👍
Difference was very noticeable in cornering. The car never tilted once ..
NICE WORK KEV AS always 👍👍👍👍
Wow! just Wow ! I see you going up in the world
thanks for the video
😂😁😂… little baby steps
Thanks to Kevin for his videos, I did the clutch on my car and now it's going very well, without his videos I would never have succeeded.
Fantastic…🍻🍻
@@WMCS You were an excellent teacher 👏👍
wow Kevin first vidoe you have not been doing a clutch easy day for you but love it keep it up
That’s it.. a bit of a pattern break.

Thanks for that. I did go back and slacken and retighten the lower arms once it was on the floor. But thanks for the insight so others know 🍻🍻🍻
Nice one Kevin 👏🔧
Something new on your channel 😅 keep going 🦾
Thankyou .. a bit of a pattern break.
I like this kind of video, it changes a little. Thank you
Excellent..🍻

Thankyou for visiting the channel. It’s very much appreciated.. I wouldn’t say no to a nice medium rare steak 🥩 😁🍻🍻
This your motor Kevin?, what a beast 🤙
I drive it from time to time
Hi Kevin It changes clutches 💪🏻🍻
Part time mechanic 😂🍻

About 5hrs … 😁🍻
Hi Kevin nice to see you doing a different job mate you 👍 ok doing a good job 👏 😅Billy

That’s it .. brake cleaner
@@WMCS cheers
good work but you gotta put weight on the control arms before fully torquing them down.
Are those control arms supposed to be torqued on the ground with vehicle weight on them? Thanks for the video.
I’ve heard of that procedure … I might give it a go.
@@WMCS I think it would be prudent. Thanks again 👍🏻
Yes when the vehicles weigh is placed on the bushings because they have been torqued unloaded they will have a twisting force on them which can lead to premature failure! All service manuals state to torque everything when the vehicle is on the ground! But no one does it!
The size of the drop links 😮
Un altre Porche Macan Kevin?... Ets Gran!!!
😂🍻🍻🍻
38:35 just saw a shilouete of your pant antler there bud
😁🍻🍻
What do you think about the Milwaukee angled impact wrench, i've got one aswell and i dont rate it at all, is yours 1/2 or 3/8?
I was quite disappointed in the power output. But then I learned how to use it.
@@WMCS exactly, i tried it a couple of times, apparently its meant to remove brake carrier bolts, but it struggles to get them out even after they’re cracked loose, its been sitting in my locker ever since.
wanna sell it?

With the dry sump .. it took 7.8 litres with oil filter .
@@WMCS sorted💪👍 thanks for getting back to me mate
Do I need to bleed the fuel circuit after changing the filter?
Yes .. by turning ignition on for about 30 secs
👍

Make sure clutch plate was fitted the correct way round

Sir your advise and input would really help. Thank you
I was really hoping you would share your opinion.
Bad suspension bushes or just doing them for piece of mind because of mileage?
Just general preventative maintenance
Hm, nice job as always. Wasn't the coolant level not too low?
It was indeed from last video In the Porsche playlist …
Салентблоки нужно затягивать на нагруженой машине, а как ты сделал так их быстро порвет.
If you say so
100% они порвутся через 2000 км, это отвратительная работа, я не ожидал от него такого
И хамером бить по алюминию НЕЛЬЗЯ 😢
I enjoyed this instead of your usual fare, was that a fuel filter around 30 minutes. It might be time to retire those britches they got a bit airish.
They’re getting patched up as we speak 😂🍻🍻
@@WMCS LOL
what is the cleaner you use
Brake cleaner.. quick air dry
house vehicle? excellent purchase!!
Stop it …😂😁🍻🍻🍻

Oh another VW/Audi group product!😄
Wow that pan is already leaking.
Not the pan.. but the sealant .. needs to be renewed that’s it
You done work this car before?
Yes. In Porsche playlist
You missed the arm left and Right 😅
Top man for spotting that 🍻🍻🍻
Thanks
Do not finally screw the chassis parts until the axle is loaded
Will go back and loosen them.. 🍻🍻
I wonder how much he charged for labour.
il est bon a faire un parallélisme le client sacre voiture !!!
Siempre trabajas solo. Nunca has tenido la necesidad de que alguien te ayude?👍
I suppose you can’t miss what you’ve never had ..

Ok
Diesel motor in the Porsche brand. Awesome, who came up with this?
It’s a beast of an engine .. a bit like a spitfire
