If you are having heating issues or coolant leaks on your Fiat 500, you may need to replace your thermostat. Its a very easy job. Here I show you how I do it. The original items may have plastic fittings that can fail and cause big problems. It is considered the most appropriate action to replace these before they fail. Always replace with metal units.

Brilliant video matey! - just the way I would imagine it to be after an inexperienced welder purchased one - just what we need to see - and I agree for £40 odd £, looks great fun and something to practice more - I think I'll go and buy one after seeing this - 5***** 👍👍
Thank you so much for making this video! I found it so helpful - my job requires me to use one of these microphones and it has never worked on my android, and I never understood why. I've downloaded the camera app and it works like a dream - Thank you!
Sounds just like the problem I have. Will check for this. Thanks.
Apparently you should have a little bit of grease on the free hub to avoid future issues. Oli feels really bad for suggesting this but has your best interest at heart :)
Ah now that debate will continue until the end of time...... to grease or not to grease, for that is the question 🤔🤣
Good show! My wifes' iddy biddy car has the same issue. You have save me lots of grief and also going to make me score some points with her. Thank you tons!
btw, the steering wheel is on the wrong side of your car! ;)
So it is 🤣😂🤣
Top stuff works well ,can your next Design replacement be to upgrade the ERAD why do so many fail break
Thank you very much for filming and sharing! It was extremely helpful. The only difference for me was that the bolt was 22 mm instead of your 10 mm, which made my afternoon interesting as all 22 mm tools are huge for this small space.
A job to be proud of. looks great.
Thanks for this - the planetary gears on mine are completely dry and got some surface rust on the motor (I bought it used). Do you know how the roller bearing comes off the black shaft? I've found a replacement, got the circlip off but I can't get the bearing to move.
To answer my own question, I was able to hammer the bearing off after spraying some WD40 between the bearing and the shaft.
Super, from Sweden
Great video thx. Gotta do mine, ordered radio release keys.... next week it'll get done. cheers Thumbs up!
WOW. I cannot describe with words what a HUGE difference this made to my F56. My clutch was heavy as a rock and now it's literally a FEATHER. It took me 10 minutes to compress the spring with your zip-tie method with the palm of my hand against a wall (measured bit by bit until I reached 8cm). Then, literally 60 seconds to put it in and release the ties with a small cutting pliers (it is easier if you push a little the pedal inwards to make a bit of room before you put it in) I'm very grateful you shared this. Hope my 2 cents help anyone else also. This was a big concern to me that was affecting my driving experience. THANK YOU!
Hey there many many thanks for the very helpful video. MY connector was rusted and very hard to remove, when refitting i found it easier to leave it bolted in place first, so maybe thats a good way to remove it if its problematic. It feels way better now however occasionally i still get my gear jamming, less so though. Im wondering if i need to bleed it more.
Bought a spring and I should be fitting it soon. Excellent video, just got a mini and noticed the clutch was heavy right from the get go.. I was looking for a hack but this seems like its was a factory error to me missing this part off where it is supposed to be fitted.. anyhow.. THANK YOU in advance
Is this the same for the abarth?
Ive never worked on an Abarth. It's a different engine right ?
I just finished my Abath thermostat .there is literally no room to get your hands in and the place that the 10mm bolts are there completely covered with more engine😂 thanks for this vid

why am I not getting the main menu on the android app. I downloaded the topscan on Android phone. but all it says it's connected that's it no other menus to scan the car. I registered and everything but unable to scan my car for faults. their is no option on the app. please help
Great video. My hose snapped off flush at the thermostat, leaked all the coolant, and overheated in seconds... and this was the only video showing new how to access it.
A human would use a screwdriver to open the unit up. This orangutan has no idea how to make a helpful contribution to RUclips. Anyway, these units are packed with security, even combining spares from other units will result in a blocked frozen brick. Understandably..Buy a new one..
That was a very helpful thank you very much just fixed mine

Exactly i was looking for this video before purchasing this machine. Thank you very much.
you really should put a plaster on that injured thumb
shame you took some skin off .the price of fame .
Honestly, every time I do anything I end up with some kind of nick/cut/graze. It must be my sift Southerners skin 😀
When putting back the giant plastic cover in the middle, I realised I lost a clip for the screws to screw in. You can see it at 9:48. A bit annoying but I’ve left it as is. I’ll see if I find that missing piece in a store. Otherwise great video, I was able to chabge my 12v vigarette port to a usb port.

Terrible this isn't a standard option inside Android. The little manuaI hints nothing like this and I went in USB debug mode as the receiver was recognized as something that needs charging. Fortunatly there is your introduced app, and you to introduce it! 🙂 Thanks a lot for saving the day!
Have you watched this video too ?: ruclips.net/video/ud12Zc1dvO0/видео.htmlsi=ClSccZOX_FqaOTOh
@@fixitfallows Yes I did. Even in developer options verified the audio routing enabled. Need to say I am still on Android 10 one Nokia 7 Plus (Android One) so that may be the problem. Open Camera at least has a solution so I can use this phone for recordings. Thank you mate!
Thank you for your help.
Just changed the heating element and sensor on a Zanussi, but still doesn’t work. Weirdly it works once if left off for a while. Assuming it’s the board now so going to check the stuff you’ve covered here. Thanks for video.
Hello from the US. I have the opposite problem with my 2017 Clubman S ALL4... My car has the compression spring and it squeaks like mad. Others folks that are experiencing the squeak say grease and silicon oil provides only temporary relief, the squeaking inevitably returns. Now that I know how to install a new spring (absolutely brilliant method by the way!) I could use some suggestions on how to remove the existing spring. Thanks! PS: I'm very curious to know if you eventually get the squeak.
Wayyy more difficult than the new models...
Thanks, you saved me a ton of money......I like the Rodes also have a great day
Hi, I got the same one and I definitely need a stronger motor :D That said, do you know of what type the aluminium extrusions used for the base are? Can't find them online. Thanks.

Test drove a 2016 BMW F45 218i, and I noticed the clutch was heavy. When I collect it, going to see if I have that clutch pedal and order a spring!
Any idea how to arrange the levers if you didn’t number them ? Mine looks very similar
@@quintinvanderberg3852 I haven't tried this, I'm just hypothesising here...... perhaps it is possible (with the case/plate off) to reinsert the levers with the key insitu. It will just be a process of trial and error until you get the 5 levers to get their notches to align. Give it a try.
@@fixitfallows align in what way ? You have a video ?
@@quintinvanderberg3852 try watching the video from approximately 3:50 through to circa 6:00. Here I try to explain how the key works with the levers to align cut outs in the levers to allow a tab/notch on another part of the mechanism to slide into position. If you can visualise how this works, perhaps you can effectively reverse engineer your setup. With the key in place, reinsert the levers until the cut outs on the five levers align uniformly. The other option of course is to waste no further time and buy yourself a new lock 😃, but then where is the fun and sense of achievement in that ?!
Do you have to hold the clutch pushed to the floor to insert the spring? I have the spring compressed to 83 mm measured from tip to tip of the spring with 4 zip ties as shown. I had to push on the zip tie with a screwdriver and pull the loose end with pliers to get them tight enough. But it's not going into the two sockets.
@@NormanJohnson-MusicHost It has been a while since I did this and I'm struggling to remember the exact details. However, the gap between the two mounting points is bigger when the pedal is pushed down.... so give it a try, it seems logical. Good luck.
@@fixitfallows It worked! Thank you. Yes, I had to hold the clutch to the floor with one hand while lining up the spring with the other. I went through 3 sets of zip ties before I figured out a good size and set the heads out of the way. It was important to insert the spring's bottom (black) end in the clutch pedal first (it's a deeper socket) and then line up the white end in the upper bulkhead socket while pressing the pedal with your free hand. A word of caution while squeezing the spring in the vice: The nylon guides in the spring will come to a stop that you can feel as you turn the vice handle. Do not go any farther or it will permanently damage the spring. It's right at the point where the spring is squeezed to about 80 mm. And yes this spring makes a noticeable difference! I'm going out to test-drive it now.
@@NormanJohnson-MusicHost Excellent news. Thank you for all the details too, I'm sure that will be of great help to many. Cheers.
@@NormanJohnson-MusicHosthi! Did it work out?
Thank you very much for everything ! 🙏🙏🙏
that was a big help thanks, here i go to have a go on my new cheap welder with a bit more confidence after seeing you🙂
I am having a terrible time putting the handle back on. My pistons are a lot harder to push in than yours are. Do you have any other suggestions other than putting your foot on it?
Have you loosened the lock valve so that you're not fighting against the hydraulic pressure?
Thank you. I googled the lock valve and adjusted that and it helped. I was able to make it work. Thank you.
