Its not a RIBE bit!!!! dont use ribe thats why it stripped. its a VW spline bit you need
It’s a Ribe brother
Hi! Thanks for this in depht tutorial for these jobs! Do you still have the partnumber for those Elring oil control rings, or where I can find those?
I mean if your doing ford xr6 turbo I mwan I just pulled thr motor out with the transmission attached all un do is the wiring loom and engine mounts and off she goes lol looking at my 2007 gti I have no bloody clue hoe it works and its so stuffed in there like I wouldn't imagine the way your foing it to be easier especially when most the people watching your video wouldn6 be very experienced I mean well done though doing it thr longer harder way ehen you could have just unbolted the thr front end took out the intercooler and whatever else in the way and I'd assume wring loom and water things are attached and engine mounts and off she goes.
Hi, could you please give me the reference for the carbon seals and the screw?
Get the seals number off the ELRING website, they have a good lookup tool. Call VW for the bolt. That is where I got them from.
Sorry mate but never cut a transom out from the outside, look I know why you did, you don't have to say, but in my line of expertise shortcuts don't work, everything done is wrong.
Pry bar mate.
I'm about to give this a go. Did you use the 3 front panels so you didn't need to bend the alloy and acrylic sheets? I was going with 2 front panels.
My boat is moulded to suit 3 flat panels. A boat moulded for a curved screen would be a different ball game.
@@cheapthrillsgarage I made it up as you did accept with 2 panels and fastened it is the middle then slowly worked my way out to the edges which put a gentle bend in the frame and acrylic. It all worked out really well, very happy with it. I will get some black rubber material for the top and sides to hide some of my mistakes.
Glad to see young fellas doing this kind of work..better than your life being ruined by texting..you will remember this..
Muito Bom !
I know you're young and invincible, but cutting Coosa (or anything else) without a respirator and eye protection is the height of stupidity.
Hey do you know which brand would be good for my Audi A3 1.5 tfsi 150hp 2018? Automatic gearbox, i know Sachs is probably better quality but is Luk also good or not? Because price wise for my car sachs is double the price 😅 thx
LUK and SACHS are both very good and often share designs and part number between themselves.
@@cheapthrillsgarage Yes it’s true but some people say if it was originally Sachs it is better to not put LUK because I will have noise and hard shifts and short lifespan is it true? Thx
Why not use Gates RTB Belt ? and HEPU Metal Waterpump ?
Because SKF designed their belts, tensioner and pump to be used together. Every tension and force each manufacturer designs their parts with is slightly different. It is always better to use one brand with everything.
Replace the carabiner with a stainless anchor swivel..
Swivels scare me...
how did you bolt the seats on ? , did you fit sliders or swivels I need to do a similar job myself cheers Greg ,Lake Macquarie
No I didn't use either actually. I hole sawed some 20mm HPDE board I had lying around and used them as spaces. Nuts, bolts and washers sandwiching everything together.
Best video I've seen for transom replacement
A zip saw with a chisel blade would be my choice ...but thatz me...great job..my next year's project on my boat .cheers
Pry bar. Excellent job. Will go for it and follow your video
Sure about that carabiner at the end next the anchor!? 😨
One of the best installs with great information about what your are thinking about. Im about to tack my quintrex renegade and its a nightmare.
Great video, and ill use that website for my parts.
does the screw not crack when you finally tighten it for another 1/4 of a turn? why is 60 Nm not enough for such small screws? You don't tighten the wheel from the car
Very nice job! Thank you for sharing...
Satisfactory result at an amateur level nice work. For professional results we spray and use top quality paints I personally can’t stand the look of rolled paint jobs on items that deserve better.
Thanks foto the video, a reason to never buy this crap. 😂
Unbelievable job man. They're perfect. I mess around with boats quite often and ive done my fair share of fiberglass work. Flawless.
Thank you!
So excellent🎯. Amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
You're quite the garage craftsman. I applaud you.
Hello I currently have a Golf 5 Gti with the AXX engine mark, I had to buy a new engine with the mark because the old one was broken, I wonder if I can do a swap from a newer year BWE engine?
I would think so, I would definitely keep all your sensors and injectors off the old one. That is where the changes would lie.
Im digging out my two 3/4 inch sheet transoms plywood from the inside,don't have much experience and don,t know anyone that does,so here i am,the wood looks like there is epoxy around the outdrive as i can see the mat on both sides about 20 inches from the sides.Once i get the first piece fit.Im at 13 min now and im in to new territory,set up will be important.
We call that a digging bar here in usa
My timing chain scrapes inside the cover grinds inside and metal pieces are blocking the pick up pipe. Iv took to 5 mechanics and had timing chain re timed and replaced twice. Third time at the mechanics rn i have no hope in someone fixing this. Was fine before i got chain replaced wish i never did it now and just let it snap one day lol
There is no reason that should be happening. I'd take it back to the original place and demand they fix it.
Shot man this is great video for my sons car.
got a mk5 jetta. need to pull the head. thinking of just pulling the engine to do a overhaul in the garage
How did you do the corners with the new glass? Did you overlap each strip of glass to the intersecting? Curious as I’m doing the same repair to my boat. Thanks
Legend
I've read its a good idea to change the foam roller every 5 min.
I like the vertical then horizontal then another light vertical roll.
Can you do this with an mk7?
Good build, thanks for posting.👍
You’re the first person I’ve seen use red thread locker of little tty bolts. Seen blue or without several times. Ever have any problems getting them out or do you hit with heat first or use very minimal?
All loctite threadlocker is red, I don't use the strong one.
@@cheapthrillsgarage All thread locked isn’t red. Red is usually permanent or heat to break loose. Blue is medium and then you have green.
@@hardcore4476 I’m talking about the brand I use called Loctite
You use that loctite 518 flange sealant on vacuum pump o-rings too? Never heard of that trick but sounds brilliant!
I use it as an aid on all rubber o-rings. It reduces your chance of pinching them.
What’s that shiny stuff under the bonnet ?
Dynamat Hoodliner.
See you got a lot of MK5 GTI vids! Suprised I haven’t came across your channel yet. Earned my sub for sure! 🤙🏻
Few more to come!
Burn much oil mate? That 0w stuff is thin as. Love the BOOST! And you have pcv delete. Re fitted after pcv replaced?
Yeah replaced PCV with a new stock one. The 0W-40 is actually thicker than the factory spec 5W-30.
@@cheapthrillsgarage thicker? No kidding. I must try it for the summer.
can you come over and help me pull my motor
Why is there holes down on the bottom corners to let water in to rot out the transom ? WTF ? I cant even process that shoddy workmanship wow
Those chambers are sealed, but yeah I agree it was disappointing to find.
Fantastic good work! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Heck of a well done job:)
good work /and not so easy/ , the reason for carb is overused pcv -oil separator - you should replace it asap otherwise carb will appear on the intake, valves quickly
They look ok, you could have made better use of the space, some rolling draws on one side would have been a better use of the space, all u can do now is pile stuff in very un organised. Don’t get me wrong you did a great job just think it through a bit more don’t just get stuck on they are boxes for seats on a boat u really need to optimise all free space. They will now end up having crap put in because u can’t put anything of value or fragile in them
Maybe for the mad keen line fisherman, not me though. I use them to store about 7 life jackets, dive gear and flares etc
Lmfao, you can't be serious.
