It can be a worn bearing but you will need your remove the gearbox to know for sure

Yeah its a bit tricky but you will get there

@@maxautouk yeah lost half an hour on that but finally did it in the end. Thanks!

@albertjelica1232 no worries!

Its hard to say exactly but around 10-15k. This belt that i fitted is already showing signs of wear. Very poor quality design!

I cant remember now sorry

​@@maxautoukoh damn i was asking cuz we have a ford c max and it has the same engine as the focus and we are trying to put everything back together and its the only cable that seems to go around on and back but nowhere to connect. I will note that the shop i am working isnt a car mechanic shop . Still thanks for answering

@jp.med1a when you say cable do you mean electrical connector?

@@maxautouk no i meant the pipe my bad

Yes extremely easy!

MOT in northern ireland are difficult to get and often last minute so this is not uncommon at all. She had this problem for five weeks, so what you see is five weeks worth or dirt build up… not that much as it happens

Sorry i don’t speak French

Thanks!!🙏🏼

Yeah the lack of advisories is a problem.. so i work Mainly in Enniskillen area and ive seen cars pass with excessive play on the track rod end (as bad as it can get before it comes apart) and not even put down as an advisory they just verbally tell the customer… which of course they immediately forget I also get weird fails that should not be fails! Like i got a major fail once for an entire chassis they wanted descaled… which i did and then it passed… it just had surface corrosion nothing crazy I also had a fail on a volvo because the tester didnt like the handbrake lever adjustment even though the parking brake passed the efficiency and balance test… Its a lottery going for mot 😂

Disconnect the linkages and change gear by hand at the gearbox and see if its still really tough or not, could be a gearbox problem

They said it was making the noise ages before MOT!

And you still say bath like a right northerner

​@@maxautoukI've never ever said baf or paf. Ever. 😮

@@PiggyPower you do

Wild isnt it

​@@maxautoukThis leaves the mechanic in a difficult place. How do you justify essential, safety related repairs to a customer, after their car has just passed MOT? The customer may assume you are ripping them off. Dodgy MOTs are bringing the industry into disrepute.

You need to prevent the inner joint from turning as this is what adjusts your toe in and toe out tracking, if youve would the inner rack joint then the alignment could be badly out.. i often find using locking grips on the inner joint and heat up the outer joint super hot works well and then use some locking grips on the outer joint also to get it off

Oh yes

Thanks!

Just move them to the correct position 😁

Standard

Thanks 👍

Good question, i didnt explain it properly in the video, yes BMW dont say you need specialist gloves for the isolation of the HV battery just boots to be extra safe incase of strange faults usually occurring on crash damaged cars etc. The secondary high voltage loop plug is significantly reduces the risk of arc flash if you are intending to remove the high voltage cables themselves from a high voltage component ☺️ when doing work like this its always advisable to wear protective gloves 🧤

Glad it helped

Im not sure what you mean but if you mean the tensioner then yea you need to loosen the pulley nut then adjust the bolt to tension

The Puretech engines are capable of doing high mileage and being reliable, the trouble is that when they do go wrong the repair bill is extreme! To do what you see in this video with good quality parts from main dealer and the labour at most garages could set you back 1000 pound depending on the area

No problem!

The torque yield is the 20nm which is the bolt tight, the 140 degrees is the calculation for the stretch in the thread profile of the bolt. When you turn it to 140 degrees it creates a spring tension by elongating the bolt stopping the vibrations of the engine working it loose! These torque settings are from main dealer and apply to all different styles of bolt and washer according to them! 😁 be interested to hear others thoughts

Its not the best… 🫣 hope the video helped a little

If an EGR delete is done poorly it often reduces the power and efficiency of the engine and can make it run poorly.. but youd have to make a real mess of it for that to happen

Thanks for the comment

Same Q here. I had read it was 32mm but doing the job today it is larger.

@@mattbuckels46 it's 36mm mate found out of another video

Hi yea it is a 36mm hex nut, 38mm on some models and 40mm on the picassos

Without videoing it probably six hours

Not sure what you mean

Glad I could help!

I cant remember where but i did find somewhere to put a stand when i did a rear exhaust on one of these

Im afraid i cant remember now sorry… they are typically 25-30nm but i cant say for certain

You bet!

Thanks for the comment but you are mistaken, the inner pad has three spring forks that clip into the calliper so its the only way it can go. But yes it is unusual for the wear indicator to be on the outside edge

Does yours sit low enough or is it also bumping into the chassie of your yaris ?

Yeah sometimes the need a good hammering to get them into shape… quality of parts these days is terrible

@maxautouk I noticed that the hook/pin is welded in a different position and it's why it sits too high up. I get a nice bang when going over a speed hump.

They are crazy tight too!

Aw sorry that you broke down but glad to hear the video helped

It actually ended up having an internal coolant leak on cylinder 4 of the head gasket and that residue of crystallised coolant was from a historic leak that was fixed

I think it’s interchangeable, i dont remember what caliper i got in the end buy i do know abs driveshafts fit non abs models so might be ok

PMH sensor?

PMH sensor doesnt translate into English very well, what is it for?

Thanks for the comment

@maxautouk do you do your own work? Im also thinking doing this on the side? I have the tools but im using a car not a van. Im also based in ireland

@dailydad6335 yes being a mobile mechanic in ireland is my full time job for many years now, currently in co. Fermanagh and id say the money is better over the border Working out of a car is tough going.. have done that before Check out some of my videos, i do it all as a mobile mechabic, ev, hybrids, engines, gearboxes etcetc Great way to make a living

@maxautouk that's good, but at the moment I have to mind kids, I can't do full time mobile. So just buying up cars, fix them up get them nctd then reselling them again 😅. It's nice to have own covered garage

Yeah not a great design is it

Very kind

Yea definitely avoid them they are genuinely terrible engines. The one in the video had full dealer service history and three cambelts in four years!!!!

@@maxautouk thanks a lot. Really valuable information. Is there any version of 208 engine reliable that i should look for ?

The 1.6 HDi is ok

@@maxautouk hard to find, maybe i ll check for a Clio, like an 0.9 tce engine. I hope that is more reliable.
