Thank you. Very well explained.
Thank you, I've been trying to improve my videos with both quality and trying to film on the perspective of someone who hasn't done anything mechanical before. For example, I had filmed a major service and shown everything from how to jack up the car to how to un do everything.
My next car video will be the breaks. Typically, I also add cost to my videos with a comparison of DIY vs. mechanic. Thank you for taking the time to comment, liking the video and subscribing.
Fantastic video! It gives me the confidence as a novice to have a go. A video on changing the front discs and pads would be great!
I should be able to do the breaks in a couple of weeks time. I have a busy work schedule until then. But I will be filming how I have done it. I will try to make it as easy to understand as possible. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I always like peoples comments, questions and feedback and thank you for liking the video and subscribing.
Perfect, IV been wondering how to do this, I got an old vw van, the EGR is much easier to get to, am glad it's an ease clean, much thanks for do this video
I'm glad to have been able to help. Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment, liking the video and welcome if you have subscribed. I do have a few car maintenance videos and my next one will be the break change and bleeding. I'm hoping to do this in about 2 weeks time so the video will be around 3 weeks from now.
Great job mate!
Thank you hopefully it's gave you the confidence to take on a project like this your self. Thank you for leaving a comment and liking the video and an extra big thank you if your a subscriber. It helps with the channels discovery so hopefully it can help out other people.
Brill video, thanks. Did you notice any difference in the performance/economy afterwards?
I sure did, a new breath of life, Thank you for watching, liking the video and subscribing if you did. Please let me know if you would like to know / see anything else.
Great video. I cleaned my Egr valve and the cars runs perfectly and i get better fuel efficiency.. thanks. Afterwards i started to wounder about whether i should replace with new Gaskets, but i simply cleaned them and put them back on..Any thoughts on this? i also bought a vehicle haynes manual snd noticed there is a torque setting!!!
I'm glad to have helped. If you're planning on doing future jobs, then investing in tools like a Torque wrench would be good. I will be buying one for my next car job, which is changing the breaks. The torque ensures that the unit is flush with the unit. I didn't change the gaskets on mine as they were not damaged. I'm looking to retire the vehicle at around 200,000 miles. Mostly because of the clean air zones. Thank you for leaving your comments and questions and an extra big thank you if you liked and subscribed. I do have an insignia playlist if you would like to see how I've done other jobs.
Good video. Did you use gasket sealant? And does it have to be high temp sealant
There was no gasket when I had removed any of the parts, The exception was a rubber o-ring at the top, this was undamaged so I just cleaned it. I also did not use any sealant and there was no evidence of sealants used. I hope this helps, thank you for leaving a comment and liking the video. Apologies it took a while to get back to you.
Another good video mate well done. Cars engine looks exactly like mine so good to see these things. Curious tho have you ever changed your gearbox oil? If so how difficult was it?
I haven't changed my gear box oil. I will look into it for you. My next planed video is a boat tour, I have the footage just not had the time to put it together. I managed to find work which is very much needed at the moment! My next car video will be front and back breaks along with bleeding the system. I just hit the 150k mark on the car and picked it up at 90k miles and never changed them....I'm a motorway driver mostly so don't really use them often.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. I always like peoples comments, questions and feedback and thank you for liking the video and subscribing. Stay safe and have a great day.
There's a few conflicting things on the Web about removing the full battery and tray but others say simply lift out the ECU and the filler plug is right there, bit awkward beneath the power steering pipe but manageable. Keep up the good videos, they do help the average DIYer. 👍
Just bought my 1.6cdti, drove it back 300 miles and was sluggish so had a look and they all said map sensor. Needless to say out of the previous vax cars ive owned it was packed, i ended up soaking it then having to slowly and carefully using a pic to break it down as the outside was solid and stright away first and second gear pulls were just a different plantet. The intake manifold are coated in it also but i dont want to take it all apart as ive only just got it. Want to clean the egr and down pipe though as seems simple but the manifold is a diffrent story so tempted to ask my brother (mechanic) to check and replace proberly.
Do you thing the intake manifold is realistic to clean or just buy new ?
That goes for the egr and down pipe as well, if the car is pretty filled is it worth just getting new ?
As your brother is a mechanic, I would ask him. Maybe for a beer, Real wealth is not money but friends, family, experience and relationships he will help you out ;-) He may also have a scan tool to see if there is anything wrong with the car. Mine is also similar with the gunk inside, and for me, I'm trying to keep the car going while I'm saving for a van. Which means taking on minor jobs to keep it going. Mainly due to the clean air zone stuff. I'm working in London zone 1 and staying in zone 3. Each day I'll be hit with the ulez zone and Sunday when I'm working in zone 1 the congestion. So it's going to be an expensive weekend at work! I don't always working in London but I do frequently work in Birmingham and Bristol. Which have similar things. Thank you.
