    Good morning Luis!
    Great video again diagnosing and repairing a faulty clutch. The car interior by the way for a 2011 vehicle looks immaculate and I suspect the parts replaced were original or quality OEM parts, oils not scrimping over used parts.
    Would you mind sharing the video fix for the megatronic unit recorded 24:35 on your current video clip?
    Pleased you had time to cook a Sunday meal for the hungry family and hope that your busy colleague Elder received a few bottles of lagers for helping out 😊

    Not a rumour about the oil Luis. It is true. Just like "universal" ATF oil. Don't use it. Further, 👍👍👍great job. ( edit ) I was thinking, this is actually not a job for anyone who want to save some money on a repair. I have seen 3 clutch changes, done by " mechanics ", that came to us after major failures. For some people it is not as straightforward. If they would have read a repair manual instead of watching a video it might have saved them some trouble.

  • @bfe5881
    @bfe5881 7 месяцев назад +3

    Gear oil capacity is 1,7ltr in a DSG DQ200. In the beginning of the video you mentioned 2 ltr.
    Secondly the oil you drained from the gearbox clearly showed metal debris, which is a potential sign of a bearing wear down which you will not see by only looking at the gear wheels through the acces for the Mechatronics. You might expect that these metal debris would gather at the position magnets for the shifter forks, but they could also be collected on the magnet at the bottom af the gear box, which you will only see if you open it. In my opinion the gearbox should have been opened for inspection to clarify any bearing damages. ;)

    • @LMAutoRepairs
      @LMAutoRepairs  7 месяцев назад

      300ml surely will not make a difference...

It then goes for a bit and then goes back into neutral again. I haven’t got a code reader so any ideas on a possible fault? Thanks.

      @@LMAutoRepairs I have as best I can. It must be a common issue as most of the circuits that don’t power are inside the car and I am assuming controlled by the BCM.
      The accident broke the alternator connector, so not sure if that caused a short. The guy who repaired it ran it off a jump pack to move it and it did need some welding. There is always the possibility that he accidentally reversed the jump pack terminals or didn’t fully disconnect the battery when welding. Could either of these have damaged the BCM?
