Myself & my dad just rebuilt this Ex rental Ferrari F430 today we find out whether our hard work has paid off. We already know the engine that we rebuilt starts but the gearbox is still a question. Today i hope to get the car drive-able and take it out on its first drive but it all goes terribly wrong.

You should buy your dads dream car and do a series on fixing it. And surprise him with it in the end.
I support this
Love this
I said the same thing I'm last video
Get this man a drink!
Up vote this!!!
i’m not going to lie i like your dad so much man, seeing you involving him in your project is so cool to watch. 😊❤
The Dad we all wish we had 😢
Oh sugar. Hopefully you can sort it
I had a Dad like that. Died when l was just 39! I still miss him after 33 yrs! Rip Mate.
He's definitely the coolest.
Agreed
At 21:30, seeing the time on his phone show “23:04” just tells you the amount of hours and late nights that has been put into this rebuild, amazing commitment
what is the song in the last seconds of the video?

Haha let me tell you something... i work in this industry (mechanic) when you see that they working that late in night don't worry cuz the next day they don't start working at 7 in the morning... in the best case scenario they'll start at 10 the next day but realistically probably at noon or after so that's why they "stay so late" to work:))
You just can't never get enough of this guy. HIs story telling and upbeating energy is just addicting!
Always put the cabin heater to maximum temperature setting so hot coolant flows through the cabin heater core as well and thus pushes out any trapped air...
And the fan on low! Also, replace the thermostat as soon as possible, running with no thermostat is also harmful for the engine...
@@cristianosantos9588it’s not harmful in anyway, just means it takes a long time to build temperature. Yes harmful if you start thrashing it over and over with cold coolant
@@SpeedyShemi I thought that too until I saw what it does to the piston rings over a long term...
@@cristianosantos9588what does it do to the pistons?
But to avoid going over this bleeding over and over, just replace the defective thermostat for a new OEM part directly, it's pointless running it without it... For engine parts, I always use original brand parts...
So many crazy little things with that Ferrari. Coming along nicely finally though.

Hi Mat, great series there, i enjoyd watching up to this point, if this could be helpful, that ferrari (F-430) was the first one to come out with the "E-Diff", it's basically an electronic controlled differential with variable locking, based on the setting of the "manettino", road condition, tires warn, esp setting and driving style.
The "F430 Scuderia" got and updated version of it: the "E-diff 2".
The "clutch plate" you found while mounting it, is essentially a real hidraulic clutch that is released or pressed by an actuator connected to a sensor and a pump, that should have it's own circuit (i guess).
When a wheel slips under traction, the e-diff clutch is electronically released or pressed in order to adjust the torque, by sending more or less of it to the wheel that needs it, this is done mainly in order to maximize the traction helping the driver to have a better control of the slip angle with the gas during a power-oversteer, also on track it is used to not make you lose too much speed when fully oversteering put of a quick corner and both rear wheels wants to slip.
Since this clutch is prone to wear out some owners use a thing called "Smart by-pass for the e-diff", that essentially electronically disconnect the E-diff system letting it to work as a normal open diff.
My guess is that some bad pressure/mounting on the e-diff/inner clutch plate could be causing the wheel spinning while in neutral and also could cause while driving around a burning of that clutch/oil, high temps and who knows what else.
I say this also cause when you pressed the brake while at idle it sounded like the force the car needed to idle was not enough anymore, like something increased instantly the gearbox drag.
I'm really cheering on you for the project and i do hope you read this comment and that could be helpful to prevent some damage to it and useful for some improvement.
Watch out that misfire on the right bank (before mounting the capristo exaust) and keep being meticoulus, even if that requires more time, your Ferrari needs to be perfect by carring all the love you put while rebuilding it, you can do it mate!
P.S.
Love the team you make with your dad, you can see on his face the smile of a young man and the joy of his 30's when the engine takes life and revs out.
that was a small amount of progress but so much fault finding and investigating it makes the video very, very interesting. don't be afraid to make videos like this in the future, i personally really enjoy them as much as the ones where you make loads of progress.
The coolant won't circulate to the front rads if you remove the stat. The stat has a bypass valve which circulates the coolant around just the engine block for quicker warm up. As the coolant gets to temp the wax pushes the main valve to the rads open at the same time closes of the engine bypass circuit.
Without the stat the coolant will take the path of least resistance ie around the block and boil. Its not going to force it around the rad circuit, put a new stat in and it will be fine
Yea , also stat is needed to slow coolant flow enough that it can draw enough heat from the engine
Jackanory is back!!!! Leave the stat out for testing. The water pump circulates the coolant not the stat doh
The stat directs the flow of coolant
Wrong. You would just have constant flow of coolant through the engine and radiators, however it does put more stress on the coolant pump and it takes longer to get up to operating temperature
Sod them Mat, you're doing fine. Follow your mechanical instincts
Get a proper burping funnel and then rev the engine to up to 3k periodically to remove the air lock. Keep doing it until all bubbles are expelled.
love your utter enthusiasm and utter happiness even in the event of severe travesty! Your bubbly personality and down to earth persona is what makes your channel GROW and keeps us all coming back !
I don’t even have a huge interest in cars. But I binged the entire Ferrari series this morning on a rare day off… love the attention to detail, the passion for what you do and the commitment to your cause.
Looking forward to the next ones and to see it on the road 👊🏽
I haven't seen anyone mentioning it, but in the future you can take the return line from the coolant reservoir and use brake bleeder to suck all the air out of the system as you fill the reservoir at the same time. Then you know that the system is air free when there is coolant coming out of the return with no air anymore 🙂 Also works if you have some extra bleeding nipples but that I believe is normally not the case.
That’s a smart idea!
doesnt a brake pressure bleeder push in air once you pump it up rather than suck it? how would you connec it up
@@mohitl1697there are different brake bleeders, ones that you pump the pressure up on the reservoir, and the ones that you use to suck pressure out the bleeding nipple using vacuum
You mean a mityvac with a bottle attachment..the way I alway use to bleed Porsches when I worked for porsche was vacuum fill..heater on full heat, full fan speed and road test.. you literally feel the airlock go as the heaters get hot real quick
Loving the build Mat, excellent workmanship and hopefully in the next episode you can sort out the coolant issue! 😊
i remember when I changed my first head gasket, felt on top of the world when it fixed the issue. This however is a whole different level. Excellent progress! Can't wait to see it drive.
I can only admire the effort, the patience and the commitment from these guys ! Waiting for part 6 and hopefully seing the car ripping through gears outside and of course not overheating.
This is just amazing.
Officially gassed, stradman and now Matt all uploading on the same day is always a good day👌👌
Can u believe it brother, just epic,keep it coming!🦾🦾🦾👌🏈🏈🇿🇦
Such a good day ❤
Its midnight here and i watched both of the videos, carbon aventador and ferrari
And Alex too!
Ikr
Mannn I soo look forward to seeing you win on this one! I just have a feeling you're gonna make it better than what it was! Keep pushing my bro!! We all in it for you!
...probably one of your best...since the last best. The logic and process you take to fault analysis and rectification is reidiculously good
My new favorite Channel on YT to watch. Amazing content and love the way You’ve managed to record and tell about all the details. You guys keep rockin 👍🏼
Greetings from Denmark
Years ago I had a POS Mustang that was doing the same thing until I got a new thermostat (and radiator fan, because that had failed either before or after the thermostat, one was probably the cause of the other). Glad to see that the good cars can have similar issues!
Top content as usual, love how you've got an amazing bond with your dad
Just love this Matt, I’m at the edge of my seat watching you, up and down never giving up. Love watching highlight of my week, that and Cars for Paul
10 years ago this would have been a smash hit TV show on the BBC or something and now we get it for free on CZcams.
Amazing content Mat, keep em coming mate
Man this has been a crazy series. It’s crazy I found your channel too as a fellow bmx rider (well ex bmx rider) lol. This build series has been impressive I will say. You make it look easy but… I’ve been a service advisor in shops and dealers for the last 20 years. So I know what it takes to do some of this stuff and what you do and how you have came up with the car stuff is amazing. You and your dad make a good pair. He seems super knowledgeable as well. 👍🏻 👍🏻 nice work guys. 👌🏻 ✅
Just discovered your channel and must say that it really fills me with joy and inspiration to see both you and your father meeting the challenges with laughter and joy. Really good role models that I will aspire to with my own children. Thank you bless you!
this had me on the edge of my seat. Great group of people working together. Good or bad the results are honest. Keep it up
Love the content bro, i remember you since the parking lot audi repair man your an inspiration!
bro is at SEMA but still thinking about us and uploading content🥺🔥
found this channel back a few weeks ago.. unbelievable stuff cant get enough of watching these rebuilds!!
keep up the good work mat 👍
Matt, Dad and team, this is very inspiring stuff!!!!! Loved seeing the gearbox working.
You and your dad are legends Mat! The excitement on your face when it all works, that’s what it’s all about smiles and laughter! Nice job!!
He gave this to his dad🎉🎉
@@daddys_slow5oh he did indeed.. what a legend.
Keep up the amazing work mat
Congrats on the gearbox rebuild. That was pretty epic putting it together from two gearboxes without a manual.
As for the coolant circulation problem, others have mentioned that the problem might be the thermostat valve. But if the fluid was flowing to the front radiator after you removed the thermostat valve and the coolant wasn't exiting from the radiator, it has to be a blockage in the front radiator itself. Not sure from the video, but that's what it looked like.
Awesome work Mat and "The Team". Looking forward to seeing you take her out for a nice drive!!
Tues is a busy day for good content but it wasn't a hard decision to make. Matt's video was always gonna be the 1st one to watch.
Man that exhaust sounds awsome
Your supercar knowledge and all the little quirks is growing exponentially week on week. You and your dad never fail to impress me
Best F430 exhaust out there, no question :P
@@Scuderiacarparts it sounds like a beautiful monster 🐲
Fantastic progress guys 😁🤘that cooling systems gunna be a mare 🙈
I'm new to your channel and I've watched a few or your projects and I have to say I love watching you guys build these cars, I also love the positivity! I'm from Michigan btw
I've absolutely no knowledge of car maintenance whatsoever but seeing your building up and explanations on what you're doing I'm almost wanting to learn how to drive at 60yrs old. Keep it going Mat👍 11:57
I love Ferrari…
Never doubted it 😅😂
You didn't pull enough vacuum before filling. You should have it around -25 before filling. Also, when filling, have the bucket higher up so you can pull more coolant in with less work due to the height difference
Mat his Dad and team are so likeable you just will them to succeed! Amazing progress! The things you manage to achieve without any formal training is just astonishing! I used to think your hard work beats talent was just an empty phrase but it really encapsulates you so well! Oh and reddevil is right about doing your Dads dream car but very tricky to do without him knowing.
Your challenges and puzzles made this all the more interesting! Keep it up!
Don’t want to say it, but… yes the thermostat is cheap and easy to replace so this would have been a cheap and easy thing to do before hand for added security 😂 besides that, amazing stuff! love watching all these episodes, Your Dad is a UK hidden gem 👊🏼
I agree. Whenever I had things far enough to get my hands on the thermostat, I replaced it unless it only had a few miles on it. It's so messy changing it that I might prevent a future problem.
It’s a Ferrari nothing is cheap to replace
What an episode ❤ Making some wicked progress you should all be proud Big up Kevin and Hannah too 👍
Thanks for uploading so much Mat i love watching your channel at the end of the day really helps me get away from the bs
Great to see the ferrari build
Can't wait to see it on the road
Good luck to you your dad and everyone involved in your build and video production.
Never heard a clutch master cylinder called a clutch pump before! Gold ⭐️
Love your content Mat!
I frigin love this rebuild series. This content is so awesome Matt and thanks for showing absolutely everything including the fails/issues because that’s what makes builds like this even more awesome when they’re done!👌🏼🤝🏼
Mat's excitement is so contagious! Love your channel, man!
Love your videos Matt keep going maybe a pick up will be next
alright, listen. you are. my favorite. car youtuber. based on one thing alone. your relentless positivity. i had so much investment into you and your friends and family getting this thing going and i can actually feel how excited you all are when you finally have a success on your cars. i actually caught myself FISTPUMPING when you got the reverse gear. well done, Mat. Well done. Hopefully, one day, someday, I'll have a project of my own and we might carve up some backwoods roads together. you're a legend. Cheers
Your troubleshooting skills are amazing! I just love watching you work it all out. Incredible!
You know it's not the cars for me it's watching a bloke and his father plus mates makin memories.
Well done Mat 👏 and it’s great to hear an exhaust upgrade without pops and bangs, bravo 🎉
Wait till we hear it properly! 🔊 💥
Keep em coming matt🎉🎉
I always use vacuum pump on top of the expansion tank to remove air from cooling system. Works wonders !
Well done Matt and team, you consistently provide excellent, informative content and are an inspiration to all home mechanics and petrol heads. Topman
Mat! you're that type of fellow for which I'd move to GBR.... i love your work, content, vibe, family and hard work! I'm waiting like my fav tv series, for the next episode... you're killing me mate!
Cheers!!!!
Pull the vacuum in to the yellow & check all the hoses are sucked flat to make sure there's little or no air left in the system. That seems to work on Porsches.
Fantastic progress, air locks are an absolute nightmare. Keep up the good work. 👍
Superb work via trial and error. Credit to you Mat as no matter what gets thrown at you you manage to find a way round it 👍🏻
Mat you really need to start wearing ear defenders around these cars you fix. I’m really concerned for all of you guys hearing.
Very impressive that you assembled that gearbox without instructions.
That might not be a good thing.
@@gdfggggg I love the fact they tried but I'm not 100% confident about that gearbox
@@gdfggggghe’s done so many things wrong on this car due to either stupidity or ignorance there’s no way this car will ever work right or be reliable.
They may have received a copy of the Ferrari workshop manual (or at least the relevant pages) from someone, under the condition that they didn’t mention having received it. Ferrari are very litigious, so avoiding mentioning having breached their copyright would be best for everyone involved.
@@Jonathan_Doe_ Yeah, there must be something.
Hey Mat, solution to your coolant bleeding issues. If you get a 25l barrel or similar and put some hose fittings on it that match the ferraris. You can essentially make a 25L expansion tank that you sit on the engine. The added volume allows you to run the engine and bleed the air without it going all over. Heat cycle the engine a few times and top up as necessary. Replace og expansion tank when bled. This could be used on other tricky bleeders too 😉
Love your channels mate, you and your dad are awesome 😎
We love your content ❤❤
Love your efforts man❤
fascinating. especially the calm and patience when so many problems pop up every minute
MAT ARMSTRONG💪🏻is the supercar aliver.
Finally been sat here in pure excitement for the last 4 minutes. It'd felt like a life time 😂
NISSAN GTR R34 rebuild
Mat please enjoy your time with your dad building these cars building this business and dreams together. I was away for too long and when I came back to start building my dreams with my dad I was too late, he got sick and passed away few years back.. so many things didn’t happen..😔
I wish you all the best!✌️
Only channel i watch and the views go up as you are viewing epic channel here since the start 💪 hats off to Mat and Tony 🙌 camera man deserves a mention too top bloke 💪
I do prefer the 25 min plus videos . Come em coming mat please
Mat you need to put car heating to max temperature when you are bleeding coolant because it will open small radiator and that air lock will be gone
Love Matt explaining things on the go, definitely appreciate the visuals as well. 🙂👍
As your vacuuming the coolant system. you should fill the supply line from the coolant bottle to the vacuum pump so you're not adding air into the system. And they make a very large bowl that goes over the coolant reservoir to run without.
If this car is ever sold, the buyer is going to be the bravest person alive! 😅
Second bravest! (Mat is the bravest!)
Friend of mine is a physicist and he hates it when ppl say vacuum to any low pressure situation. I'm sure saying vacuum to 400mbar will make him boil 😂
edit: I send it to him and he is having a seizure I think 🤣🤣
Sure... a friend 😅😂
nah bro I'm a mecanical engineer that shit just gets rounded for me 😅@@joomsmahooloo7968
Much respect for mechanics after watching this. It’s a science and problem solving that requires real knowledge and understanding with great functional skill.
I'm learning as I watch, I'm telling all my boys bout this channel. I'm in states this popped up. Best channel on CZcams
I was a mechanic at BMW in the 80s for four years and this is such a joy to watch you troubleshooting the car. My advice would've been to connect everything first obviously the vacuum leak would be compensated by the idle control valve and you're just stressing out the system and adding more drama to your build.
I like how everything time something bad happens that seems devastating! Tony laughs instantly 😂
Hi Mat, Let me start of by saying I know nothing about car mechanics but what I did see is that when you are vacuum filling the cooling fluid I think you are pumping in air. The hose that is running from the valve to the bottle of coolant is rather long and not primed in any way. So what is in that hose before you open the valve is air. when you then open the valve you will first pull in that air in the reservoir before it actually gets to the coolant. what could help is to either have a shorter hose or prime that hose to make sure it's filled with coolant and not air. You could prime the hose by letting the vacuum build up with the valve open at first, so you turn on the compressor to blow air across and that should then pump up the coolant. when the coolant starts shooting out you close the valve and let the system build up the vacuum in the reservoir.
Just an incredible watch, like all of yours.. great build on this car look forward to next one 👍👍👍👍👍
I'm SO invested in this project ! I Can't wait to see if you can get it 100% running !
Mat, I have one tip for you to avoid problems like you had with the release bearing connector, mark all your screws and nuts with a marking stripe (there are special paint markers for this) after they've been torqued down. This is what is done in aviation to assure each bolt is correctly torqued and it is visualy possible to see which ones are not done. I've done this with all my engine overhauls and it save an enourmous amount of headaches trying to find why something fails, not to say anything about the risk of something flying off because it was forgotten. It's easy and incredibly effective.
Just a thought. But you might want to invest in a couple of good industrial grade fans. As you have no air flowing through the radiators. As they would get when it is driving down a road. A great spot by Tony with the thermostat. Make sure the radiator fans are working. So when it gets hot. They kick in as they should. All the best. With this build.
The valved Capristo on my Cayman is excellent. So quiet on cold starts and just normal around-town stuff. But switch the remote or stomp on the pedal and it roars.
Heya Mat, just stumbled upon your channel, I must say "awesome, superb...", It's awesome to see having fun with your dad and that you take on the projects together... Oh yeah, and your fixed cars are indeed "Mental" lol, keep up the good work, grtz from Belgium
Kool video! The VW Vanagon Synchro I had was very difficult bleeding the coolant system!
Working gear box !!!!! Wicked. happy for ya Matt 😊😊😊
You have to be crazy smart to understand the full workings iff a car Respect to you
Love this build! What an insane challenge. I can’t wait to see you guys make it happen…
The joy continues...beautiful car and really satisfying build.
Matt brilliant video mate u will fix it dude I have learnt so much from watching your videos thanks so much for doing them 👍
Both my dad and I love watching your channel. You don't just pay people to build stuff for you, you love getting stuck in. 2nd best car channel on CZcams, sorry MCM is my favourite!
I know it's slow progress but it's coming along nicely 😁
It's a beautiful car and I think you have done an amazing job so far
And have to say I really like your dad he's proper old school like me
