Love to see your tool box I bet it’s full of poundland stuff😂 me sons got better stuff than you and he’s only 10 😅. I think you need to be thinking about a career change mate coz you ain’t gonna make any money repairing motors🤣I hope for customers sake your charge per job and not per hour
Let's see a video of your work on the road, or any work, no, didn't think so. At least we know what's in your toolbox, NOTHING, keyboard warrioring at it's finest. There used to be a kids programme on TV, think one of the characters was kermit ...............................
You’re a complete bellend
@iancarrier-pd8cu you’re a complete bellend
I hope your son learns to read and write better than you, regardless of how complete his tool box is.
Back in the day, throwing a scrappy alternator on your car yourself was standard and one of the easier of jobs. How times have changed.
I changed an alt on the same car leon is working on took me about 40min and I'm not even a mechanic I'm a gardener!
frustration words are brilliant never change man for anybody lol
My wife has just said 'he sounds like you doing a job' 😅 that's because I work for Vauxhall. To do this job you need to drop the wheel arch liner and with the tensioner removed the engine mount can be removed.
😂😂😂 fuckin brilliant man 😂😂😂😂😂😂 mechanicing doesn't get any more honest than this 😂😂😂😂
It should be a requirement that people who designed all this stuff should have had many years of experience in fixing vehicles. Then everything would be easy🤔
All about keeping assembly time and costs down - don’t care about what comes later too much. However, in this case I agree, what a joke of a job!🤬
I presume it would be easier if you had the car in your garage
The alternator had jammed the belt was slipping like mad when you started the engine
a hundred years of making cars - and the engines to power them .and look at what they turn out
Working in a kerb is twice as difficult than in a workshop i allways charged extra but avoided like the plague
It’s just a simple alternator job 😂
Love watching these and why i advocate schools encourage pupils to become mechanical engineers, it used to be a simple job but im glad ive got a mechanic to do these jobs.
Love your vlogs
Pull the tensioner down on the nut, then push a split pun through the hole to lock in position while you feed over the new belt.
Leon I have to say this was one bastard of a job. I give you credit I would probably walked away. Nice job thanks for sharing. 👍 Artie
"stay in school, do not be a mechanic like" :)) hmmm in corsa b and c is far easier to achieve taking engine mount out... and the tensioner has like a locking pin which makes it easier to install or remove but... i only found out myself after one fell a part and the spring dissapeared in the air... but when i bought the replacement had the pin top lock it.... things are far better when not on the streeet in the cold and raining... fairplay to you for showing the reality and not a cut video that makes it look far too easy...
Thank you Leon, another one too put on the do not touch list, along with anything with oil cooled alternator, Dacia sanders starter motors and anything that's got carbon build up under oil filter cap.
Thank heavens I'm now semi retired so can pick and choose my jobs
Cheers all Dai
If you push then tensioner to the max on these they lock out. You can flick it back once all in place.
I would have gone to the pub long before that far play 😂
Nice seeing new upload Leon 👍 one of those days, I feel your pain mate. Seldom jobs on my cars are straightforward!
Not a fun job Leon, that weather looked miserable.
I've just done one on a mercedes w203, same issue, only had to replace the voltage regulator at the back, but somebody decided to put an engine mount right behind giving no wiggle room for a ratchet. A right shit when your only 7mm bit is a long one.
Oh man, I feel your pain. What a sod of a job. Well done for sticking with it.
I feel for you on this one Leon. From start to finish, this job had every issue you could imagine (well almost). I’d have pushed it down the road and 🔥
Good upload mate 👍🏽
I had to watch alot of videos before i did this job on a turbo encore. Was still difficult getting alternator out from the bottom and getting it back in. But i did get it done. Ectotec did not beat me.
That alternator is really pully the piss, 😊. You have some patience Leon.
He has no patience at all, hence all the colourful language and gesticulating
Anyone who slags you off has never worked on cars,these engines are assembled outside of the car then shoehorned in,I must admit to laughing cos I watched this while still in bed 😂
Nice jacket Leon lidls best lol you cant beat them for value!
you done so well buddy at road side.
cam belt next!!! : )
Been there bro
Imagine if you put it all back together, and then the new alternator didn’t work🤣🤣
You're a better man than me. I wouldn't have the patients to be a car mechanic! 🙈
you are doing a grand job take no notice of the hen peckers they have to amuse them self's some how and to do a job like that you have to take half of the engine out on todays cars thanks for the video
And it fell out the bottom ,after all the work above lol
I take the Engine + box out and back in less than 2 hours at home on my own. Try doing a 2014 Audi A3 2.0tdi alternator 6 1/2 Hours you have to take complete front end of radiators fans the lot to get 1 bolt out. I felt like I’d been dry bummed fucked all day doing it
Anyone on the spanner’s can relate to having days/jobs like this it’s almost like a Gordon Ramsey switch has been flicked 😂 biggest thing that boils my p1ss is knowing that you’ve bought a tool or tools to do a job but don’t have them with you 🙄 working outside in the elements is never easy
Being mechanic during the '90 was fun ... nowadays it's shit show moistly always and with the lot new "high tech" cars , customers who want everything done asap/yesterday , crap spare parts quality , constant need for new/special tools ... oh and broken body and frayed brain .
You've got my respect mate, I've done these inside with the car on the ramp. Still a fucking pain in the ass to do.
Stressed me out just watching.
Why didn’t you take wheel off it would of been a lot easier it’s just one of them jobs everything fights you lol
Did I miss you mention if the customer paid the extra Leon?
yeh so many things ive been told its simple and easy quite a few so called simple and easy jobs turn out to be big jobs , engineers , bean counters and planned obsolescence
It was obvious from the start you should have taken the engine out😂
My God that small little car is just 1 fault after another😮
What a pain in the ars* as Nick said anyone who designs car or any machine should be made to actually work on repairing them when installed good to see it done though🙂👍👍
Wow
Some of the ford escapes with the 3.0 you need to remove the cv axle to access the alternator. .
College educated engineers 🤬😡🤬😡🤬
Tell me about it, the RHD versions at least. First remove wheel, suspension, plastic liners, axle and then you actually see the alternator. Then by feel remove multiple bolts etc and reassemble. Sadly, I am an Engineer! Make very sure you buy a decent quality one as you really don't want to repeat that...
Edit to add the power steering pump is also something to enjoy doing....
That's a bastard of a job ,timing belts worse
You made that look difficult, Jesus!
Must be the most contrary job ever
They deliberately design cars like this. I dare say even at a dealer it'd be pain let alone on the street. There should be a right to repair law that cars have to be designed for ordinary people to able able to carry out repairs like this. I am not a mechanic but you can see over the years the designs are making it harder and harder for people to have a go themselves, that of course is their plan, take it to the stealer and get completely fleeced. They will of course design a stealer tool in the process to make it slightly easier but not by much, respect. I am still trying to get the clip that holds the clutch elbow joint from the slave on an insignia to stay in and not pop off, any tips welcome.
If it's got pistons or tits it's gonna be expensive. 😊
What A fuckxng nightmare
hey leon 9-5 on a farm better than this sh1t lollol
At you least you try and show us what you are doing 💪others do 20 min of vid 15 mins of Timelapse 💩
OK so you found the bolt, watching this video l now know where my Fecking hat is, it's not lost you obviously nicked it out of my van or your mummy gave it too you. I want it back washed and clean, and don't get angry with it.
