God I miss Ed China. Coolest and most down to earth ‘television personality’. It will be such a shame if no one gives him a break and gets him back doing what he does best. There is only so far he can go by himself. He is a high level automotive engineer, not a media mogul. We want Ed! We want Ed!
Yeah, Edd is the talented mechanic, and he has that rare personality that connected to the viewer as though you were in the workshop with him. He wasn't talking into the camera, he was talking WITH you.
6:36. Edd using his 'ead (sorry, had to be done!) to fix problems without spending the money. Even to the point of having to make his own tools to fix the problems. We loved watching Edd looking at the problem and then thinking about how to tackle the problem. Edd coming up with ingenious ways to tackle problems is what made the show brilliant.
very knowledgeable and competent guy. I have the outmost respect to ppl like Ed. Ppl who fabricate and come up with ideas like this. Not just replace the whole thing or simply throw parts at it and such. It's sad I don't get to watch him more. I would actually like to work with him lol :D
Edd would have an inkling that it could have been a selector fork that broke before it was stripped down,as each fork controls 2 gears. I must have seen this one dozens of times and don't get fed up watching the repeats.
I once had 2 gears missing in my old Seat toledo 1.6 year 2000. It was just a simple problem, that iron thing was not connected to the other iron thing (i don't know the parts name) so it was just simply put it back on and the gears where back.
Wow! I was watching this video but got distracted on another tab for a moment, so I wanted to return to the place I remember getting to in the video. I pressed the timeline a few times progressively back more and more and this is what I heard I am not joking: Gearbox - Gearbox - Gearbox - Gearstick Either I am in sync and need to play the lottery tonight or he said it a lot!
Don’t blame Americans for this. Some of us actually enjoy a good engineering/see how to fix it bit rather than mike driving about talking some bull shyt
Such a cheap and easy fix, but most of us would fall foul to the greedy main dealers, saying you need several expensive gears. The fix only cost 50p, imagine the labour charge and sob story from a main dealer. A broken gearbox would have sent this nice car to the breakers yard, for most of us.
Not the jammiest deal I believe. They got a Boxster for £1000, changed the gearbox oil and sold it for 6 times the amount. The most inspiring episode for me anyway.
Removed my 2006 1.6 a3 gearbox got all casing bolts out but cant work out how to get the drive shaft parts off the box, they just spin despite 6mm alan keys on both sides
probably popped a pin on the 1st and 2nd gear selector shaft. (confirmed right) and yup super lucky that part didn't find its way into the actual gears. would have been game over for that transmission if it had.
So common a failure. When trans is out need so few tools. 13mm sockers n extensions. Semi long 6mm allen. Some times a torx i cant remember size of. A heavier rubber hammer pr metal hammer and wood block
So many 02m gearboxes had this issue. Stupid audi/vw etc having a weak part in such a critical place. Having done this repair myself, I found its actually not so difficult taking the gearbox apart. Just flip it over.
How come Mike Brewer is a such a hero when he always sells cars that have had dozens of expert man hours (Ed) spent on them which are never accounted for in his so-called ‘profit’? Every one they ever repaired has been sold - by Mike Brewer - at a huge real-life LOSS!! We can all do that!!
A cheap and easy fix. That was pure luck. As Edd said, it could've lunched the gearbox. I would've had a go myself. My "Plan B" would've been a guaranteed used replacement gearbox.
Does anyone else realize that Edd pops out the garage door about 1 second after the horn beep every single time? Is he always so instantly available? Is he never occupied with personal considerations? Obviously, what we are seeing is far from spontaneous.

Truth be told. This show was way more about Ed. I learned a lot with him.
ajwasp exactly , I have only watched in episode without him in it, it’s like trying to watch top gear with Jeremy clarkston
He should of carried on with his RUclips channel. he could be doing all of this on still
obviously he is still on youtube... His new channel with his new show.....
Wheeler Dealers made a huge mistake letting Edd go. #Why
He chose to leave
ruclips.net/video/8IB15T1LYiY/видео.html
mike let him do all the dirty work :(
Corbin
@@JohnSmith-qn3ob Where did Ed go?
@@bartonreid6740
To do his own thing
The Wheeler Dealers we all know and love
Come on Edd, the UK needs a good car show with you at the helm
The us as well... I love this show... not the same without ed....
I'll just rebuild this gearbox using the special tool that I just made..... China is the man.
We really missed ed china!!!!
Ed made this show Don’t watch it anymore
I like Ed China..
Give him.his own show
Mike... upbeat enthusiasm and a get it done outlook, and a friendly, nice guy.
oh well that finished abruptly How disappointing

So many good car shows on TV, this has to be my favourite. Love Mike& Edd. Shame Edd has left. Edd made that show.
Ed yr the king! Who else was going to do that awsome work yr doing as calm as u do! I respect u a lot!!
keep showing the old show$
I won't be watching the new show without Ed China !
Dirt digger there's s new show?
good on ya - personally I'm not interested ! ,,, and won't be watching
1500 pounds for a tt in such shape is so expensive nowadays!!!! It sounds crazy, i guess prices where a lot higher when this was filmed
Where can I see the rest of the vid??
"What's wrong with the car?".
Well for one thing... the steeringwheel is on the wrong side.
LMAO! :-D
No. It's the UK. Stupid joke.
Youll find wheel is on the right side. Yours are wrong. Driving on the left is historically so your right hand was ready to draw a weapon.
It’s on the correct side you bellend
How dare mike say edds not a mechanic anymore . Shame on you . This guy ed has mastered his craft
very knowledgeable and competent guy.
I have the outmost respect to ppl like Ed. Ppl who fabricate and come up with ideas like this.
Not just replace the whole thing or simply throw parts at it and such.
It's sad I don't get to watch him more.
I would actually like to work with him lol :D
Top gear should hire Ed. Make the show worth watching again
Love the Audi !! One of my favourite cars !! Just love this show . Edd and Mike are a great partnership !!
Mike brewer the original cockney villain
Spent £300 buying new headlights. Should have refurbished them much cheaper and easier. Thought that was the point of this programme.
Best car show ever!!!
Brilliant show.
When is the rest of this episode coming onto RUclips if at all?
Come on Ed bring out your own show. SOON.
Damnet, where's the rest? What did he use to replace the rivet?
A screw and a nut.
Brilliant mechanic
I see Edd, I click video!
Yeah, but what did you replace the broken rivet with???
Almost as good as the old top gear seasons, i love you!
5:14 Mini tow bar!
I have visited the Quest site and I cannot find this Audi TT video, I have done a search and it doesn’t find it?
Edd the king of engineering
Is the clutch any good anymore?
...I'm an experienced driver!
OMG THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO MY TT. Just ordered a new trans for 775 delivered
Christian Garofalo he fixed it for 50p lol
Where on YT /the internet can one watch the full episodes of WD?
Even when he is confused, he seems to have an answer for the problems, unlike the car mechanics back in my homeland
Edd would have an inkling that it could have been a selector fork that broke before it was stripped down,as each fork controls 2 gears.
I must have seen this one dozens of times and don't get fed up watching the repeats.
I bet it was opened and problem seem and then closed and opened for the TV
I once had 2 gears missing in my old Seat toledo 1.6 year 2000. It was just a simple problem, that iron thing was not connected to the other iron thing (i don't know the parts name) so it was just simply put it back on and the gears where back.
So how did he fix it just showed taking it apart and knocking a rivet out
I really liked Ed's work on this show.
Barton Reid & his hair.
I love these guys!!
Wow! I was watching this video but got distracted on another tab for a moment, so I wanted to return to the place I remember getting to in the video. I pressed the timeline a few times progressively back more and more and this is what I heard I am not joking:
Gearbox - Gearbox - Gearbox - Gearstick
Either I am in sync and need to play the lottery tonight or he said it a lot!
Now for sale for £600 with even more problems
Nice channel!!
this is why he left the show. the makers wanted to cut out most of the workshop work to save time.
what??? you serious? this was the reason I loved the show - watching Ed solving the problems.
Allan & Maureen Macintyre this American misses edd 100%. Mikes bits aren’t what I or my father watched for at all lol
@@tiko5876 sorry, not all Americans are out of their minds.....
Allan & Maureen Macintyre :)
Don’t blame Americans for this. Some of us actually enjoy a good engineering/see how to fix it bit rather than mike driving about talking some bull shyt
Amazing quattro 4 wheel drive system
Its a 4motion it has a haldex clutch
Love it in the snow, my vw has the epc light on now tho. No start 😥
It's fwd most of the time with the rear driveshafts coming on "on demand".
Be great if edd done his own show featuring cars like the Renault 4 and five two great cars that never got on wheeler dealers
Edd is the real reason for WD.
Aah miss ya Edd
Such a cheap and easy fix, but most of us would fall foul to the greedy main dealers, saying you need several expensive gears.

A broken gearbox would have sent this nice car to the breakers yard, for most of us.
Peter Lewis
you need to realize ed is like the best mechanic out there. alot or guys would not take a transmission apart lol
Not the jammiest deal I believe. They got a Boxster for £1000, changed the gearbox oil and sold it for 6 times the amount. The most inspiring episode for me anyway.
With oil for gearbox 6 Speed tt 8n 225 PS quattro? 75w gl4?
Ed made. wheeler dealers. It has been ruined now he has left.
Removed my 2006 1.6 a3 gearbox got all casing bolts out but cant work out how to get the drive shaft parts off the box, they just spin despite 6mm alan keys on both sides
probably popped a pin on the 1st and 2nd gear selector shaft. (confirmed right) and yup super lucky that part didn't find its way into the actual gears. would have been game over for that transmission if it had.
Can anybody tell me how tu adjust a window regulator on e39.
So common a failure. When trans is out need so few tools. 13mm sockers n extensions. Semi long 6mm allen. Some times a torx i cant remember size of. A heavier rubber hammer pr metal hammer and wood block
That was a stroke of genius on Edds part
The old lady shot might as well be click bait - WELL DONE !
Thought it was a granny technician fixing up a tt lol
Ed is the gearhead of all times!!!
Ed is a genius
So many 02m gearboxes had this issue. Stupid audi/vw etc having a weak part in such a critical place.
Having done this repair myself, I found its actually not so difficult taking the gearbox apart. Just flip it over.
el video no esta completo!!!porque?no esta completo
Eds the man but why do these clips not show the entire fix! Its so frustrating to watch and not see the job finished!!!grrrr
My dad also has an audi tt
I like ed alot, get him to fix more cars, or to just talk about fixing the cars and let some wrenches do the work
Ed. Called me the "Real " wheeler Dealer. Lol. To Mike .
Yo these videos are sweet feels like I'm watching top gear
Even in a clip titled "Fixing up a bargain Audi TT with 2 gears missing" you have Mike yapping rubbish for a 1/3 of the entire length of the clip.
How come Mike Brewer is a such a hero when he always sells cars that have had dozens of expert man hours (Ed) spent on them which are never accounted for in his so-called ‘profit’? Every one they ever repaired has been sold - by Mike Brewer - at a huge real-life LOSS!! We can all do that!!
A Car-Flip Show with Edd China and Aaron Kaufman
Yes
el video no esta completo!!!porque?
I would love to see Ed try and fix a B5S4. Any B5S4! Lol
“Think of the money Ed, think of the money” 😕
I was waiting to hear.."But look at the plumage"
Brewer is so patronizing.
Christopher Smith it's an act for the show
Cool two screws and the transmission is out. Wish they showed more
If only scotty Kilmer was as 1% as good as edd China.
£1500 for a broken TT. Madness. Like everyone says, if an actual mechanic that wanted money had fixed with it wouldn't have been worth it.
Wheel dealer audi tt
He makes it sound so simple...
Edd was why I watched.
Why you no full episode 😒
£1500 and they’re going for under a grand with nothing wrong with them... not a bargain
What was that!? A waste of my time! Where is the rest of the video!
Bounce to 2:45 to avoid the Brewer and enjoy unadulterated Edd.
Wish all jobs were that simple.
well that ended unexpectedly
My Audi TT needs a new gearbox . I cried.
Ed was awesome
Got a mint 225 quattro with full MOT TT for 1800
Some segments in the video are stamped not adjacent to each other
A cheap and easy fix. That was pure luck. As Edd said, it could've lunched the gearbox. I would've had a go myself. My "Plan B" would've been a guaranteed used replacement gearbox.
The car was missing the letter Ibetween TT as the driver who got out is one.
so...how did Ed attatch the part??
Does anyone else realize that Edd pops out the garage door about 1 second after the horn beep every single time? Is he always so instantly available? Is he never occupied with personal considerations? Obviously, what we are seeing is far from spontaneous.
James Henry it's a TV show its staged....
James Henry Elvis Presley is alive
£1500 is dirt cheap. What does a Scrap or recon gearbox cost?
Car got sold for 3600 pound
