    For me this is the whole point of RUclips - in less than 10 minutes you learn how to do something that’s too embarrassing to ask a mechanic how to do and too hard to figure out from a book without making stupid mistakes. Love it.

    Thanks pal, bought all the gear to do a service, because I’m a tight arse. I Drained the oil off then Hunted for the oil filter, couldn’t find it for love nor money. Until I watched your video, never seen a oil filter in a plastic housing before. Normally one of those metal can/tin filters.
    Thanks for tutorial, you’ve just gained a subscriber.

    Honestly, thank you so much for these videos - i have the exact same transit i think (2008 110hp FWD) and finding videos on various repairs and servicing is so difficult - i guess because there are so many variants. The only help i've had with mine so far is the Haynes manual - and that only gets you so far.

    Mate. I got a transit mk7 12 plate. I want to change the oil and filter on mine as the mpg has dropped like a mofo. An issue I’ve had since I’ve had it is sometimes when I crank it over it’s not going to start but on the third try it always starts. It’s kind of embarrassing when you’re outside a customers house ready to pull away. Any ideas would be appreciated. I’m in the Black Country too.

    • @Thediycarchannel
      @Thediycarchannel  2 года назад

      Have you given it a full service i.e fuel filter, air filter etc ?
      I would definitely look a the fuel system pargi I had a similar issue I did fuel filter and it the process found a small air line crack it was leaking fuel but sucking air once I changed the fuel housing it was fine. It did happen again lol but I couldn't find the issue and a garage found it it was a faulty fuel filter housing again it didn't last long that's why I didn't suspect it the second time
      Do fuel filter first but they can be a knightmare bleeding not sure on your experience but may be a garage job they really are fussy. After that air filter and so on

      @@Thediycarchannel I’m quite happy to hand over cash if I walk away without the issue afterwards. I had a full service last year but id like it to be done again. Was thinking of having a go at the oil change myself this time and get it in the garage for the rest or just take the oil I want to the garage and ask them to put it in. It’s just putting your trust into a mechanic. I could do with one that lives and breathes transits. My miles per tank has gone from 490 to a tank to 400. In a touch worried to be fair.
