That mushroomed chisel is freaking me out a little but that video was very instructive to get start myself here once more. Thanks for all the effort in catching all steps in camera.
@Kevin-Albert Williams Hi m8. I live in Denmark and my clutch broke - And I got a ton of quotes though several of those "mechanic prices" sites - cheapest was more than 1000£... Which I don't have - nor do I think it's a fair price. So it was down to selling my car for scraps and riding my bike to work - which is about 20 miles away - or to take a HUGE gamble and buy a clutch for about 150£ and try to do it myself - with help from my dad who has a pretty good workshop but is 75 so he is beginning to be a bit limited in his physical abilities at this point (He is still amazing though - dude is from 1948 and still fixes a LOT of stuff). Lord know he tries all he can and is still a huge help - but yeah. HOWEVER - as he said "this is the largest operation ever attempted in my workshop." Well I started to do research on it and found a few videos - non of them filling me with confidence. Then I found yours - and oh boy - I can not express how much better this video made me feel about the whole situation! So - Yesterday we started a 10am and went on for about 7 hours with breaks and stuff. Taking it slow. Pausing and unpausing your video - following it to the letter. We did run into a few issues with stuff being rusted really hard together making it VERY hard to dismantle, and we did have to a issue with (and here it shows how little of a mechanic I actually am) the bolt on the break plate area which holds in the powertrain rod thing on the left front wheel was impossible to loosen - which meant we had to push it around a bit and let it stay on but out of the way... Today I went and bought a flat spanner thing using air for about 50£ (the one you are using here with battery power) since my dad has a fairly good air compressor - and oh boy that was a good buy... helped A LOT. We got it all apart and with very little issue got the clutch in place...... and then had a HELL of a struggle getting the gearbox back on. We managed in the end though. We then bolted everything back in place - still using your video every step on the way. Stuff didn't go nearly as easy as it did for you and not everything wanted to line up - but we struggled through it. Also we did have to "invent" a few things - because a few things - like the split thing in the gear leaver mechanism - broke. But that sort of thing is what my dad and I do well normally, so it took some time - but it's fixed - and very well I might add. So how did it go? Well - I live about half an hours drive away from my parents - and if I look out my apartment window - there is my Astra! Thank you SO much for this video man! I can not express how much it means to me that my car is running again. I was literally throwing a "Hail Mary" and your video was a bloody star receiver here! I seriously doubt we would have even gotten close following any on the other videos! Literally amazing work Sir. Maybe you should consider making a few actual educational videos for one of the sites which shares/sells such videos because - well - you literally enabled a guy who is technical - but only with computers - and his 75 year old dad - to change a damn clutch! A thing which most people would even start to entertain the thought of doing - we did it because of the quality of your video! Listen I know we probably got lucky that it worked out - but we didn't stand to loose much other than the 150£ I spend on the clutch... so... it was a gamble worth taking. It's NOT for the faint of heart - and I wouldn't advice anyone to undertake it unless it's the "only way" - AND that you have a fairly well equipped workshop - and preferably a grease pit/lift... but on the other hand - I am proof that IF you follow Kevins videos - and maybe get a bit lucky - then it isn't impossible!
Hello mate another great job. Just done an 2010 astra j clutch and parts were supplied by customer. Once it was built up clutch was still slipping like mad. When I pulled it all apart again it turns out the new clutch pressure plate was a few mm thinner than the old one and wasn't applying enough pressure. Lesson learned for the future, supplying my own parts from now on regardless of cost.
That’s correct. That’s the reason I have two clutches showing. The depth of the flywheel can be different by a few mm without stating it. That’s it. I never got supplied parts. But if I do I give customer a disclaimer in the unlikely event it doesn’t work or fail upon completion I will still charge full labour cost. And if they want the job done again I will charge full labour cost again.
@@WMCS yeah I charged the labour to remove and refit with new clutch mate. People are always trying to save a few quid and it usually bites them in the arse like this did. Cheers for the replies mate. 👍
I am a Mechanic and work in a Opel (Vauxhall in GB) Shop and i have never seen someone do it like that… Usually we remove the whole Front Axel when the Gearbox comes off 😅i will do it that way next time i have to do that model (and a few others where it‘s similar) amazing trick man keep up the great work
Very big thanks for this video :) It is before me in my Astra G. Very good quality and light in your video- you showed me if it is necesery ro take of the frame(or wahtever you called it in english). From myself I can add that EVERY TIME when clutch is replaced should be replaced sealing of crankshaft(simering). To this opel it cost about 5EUR but to replace it you need take of flyingwheel. I am writting it from my experience. When cluthc is used the sealing is used too. All best sir. Thank for your upload :)
La semana pasada cambie una caja de cambios de un Opel Astra 1.7 cdti y la verdad que es un trabajo duro porque hay que quitar la cual del motor gracias que me ayudó un amigo y el trabajo fue menos pesado.
It has been awhile since I watched one of these great vids from Kevin. It is probably as much work to get the shots as it is to undo and replace the nuts and bolts. He has to get the lighting right, he has to get the camera in position for every bolt!! And the editing is fantastic. Keeping these down to 50 some odd minutes is the ticket. He has taken some things out, like gathering all the tools, the floor mats etc.. Every shot is the money shot. I didn’t fast forward one time. In LA I don’t hardly ever do clutches, but I do a lot of the same nut and bolt work. Very few E bolts, which r a pain, no rust, except when an occasional out of state car comes in. I always use a rack, I always use my transmission jack and I have every electric ratchet and impact made. Do u c the way he swings that two ton Milwaukee? I switch frequently to the lightest tool and never work in the rain. And WD-40 is one of his best tools. Kevin, u r amazing!! The quality and value of the videos just keeps getting better. And they r also just plain entertaining. I bet 80% of the views r people who may have done one or none clutch jobs. But it is mesmerizing to watch. Anyhow, this is an awfully long comment. Tomorrow, I reinstall a cylinder head, just one, on a 65 Pontiac Tempest, LeMans 326 V-8. It will take me a fair amount of time. I wish Kev could loan me 10% of his strength for the day. Don’t worry, I will totally pamper myself.
Hey Bill.,, that was well worth reading. Made me chuckle 😁.. it’s definitely been a while. Great to hear you’re still wrenching. I remember the video you made in your workshop. Nice little set up. Are your impact tool’s Milwaukee…? I’m sure you’ll get that Pontiac purring again in no time. God spede …
For many people it's cheaper to pay out from their savings than to go buy a new car and be paying another 100 a week. At least the gearbox is easy to get to being a GM, not haha
You've got me hooked on your channel Kevin. You an absolute beast at bang out these clutches. My hats off to ya mate. I'm Iearning alot from ya. Best wishes from Belfast my friend 👍

Nice & beautiful, at one point there was a drop of water on the camera lens it did not prevent visibility but in a rainy wheater like the UK it is normal 👍👍👍
Awesome work mate! Have the same model, will change the Gearbox by myself ( car-mechanic many years ago). But i´m from Germany, so i own a left hand drive astra. Do you think it will work when i disassemble the connection between the steering wheel and the steering gearbox? You know, this one who is turning. Because your method seems to be easier than removing the whole axle. Thank you! Best regards
Hi william great job , i rreally learnt a lot from your videos and how to manage my car , i remove my batteru but after i removed i need to jumo start my car , does it occurs even to you this ?
I fitted a clutch on a 2008 zafira 1.6 petrol today and it wont bleed up, the ckutch pedal has no pressure at all. Fluid topped right up but no pressure on pedal. Any advice please?
Did you reuse the clutch flex plate to flywheel bolts and if so what is the torque? Just separated trans from engine, Chevy sonic, very similar. Waiting on the flex plate and clutch to reassemble. Thanks for the tips in this video.
I always find something very disconcerting when I see plastic tie rods as drop links in suspension parts. I've had a couple of vauxhall car's, I had a proper faff while owning them, lot's of small things went wrong, a lot. If i didn't have a clue about cars they could've easily lead to catastrophic failure s if left alone too long, and even then I had to adlib adding part's superior to factory ones. Like a low grade rubber coolant pipe, it run from the engine to the oil cooler, was about 10" long but curved, i got hold of a silicone pipe same diameter with similar curve in it, serious oversight at the factory that one. VVT though?! Must shift like, i didn't think vauxhall made VVT engine's, or is it an Isuzu engine... Probably.
They have not improved with the newer models to be honest. Ford has gone that way as well. Maybe to save cost I can only imagine. Isuzu engines are used in the 1.3 Vauxhalls. This one is a 5 speed GM engine. And I don’t think it’s a VXR either.

Thank you for your video Ive done exactly the same as what you have done however now when I get in the car it won't go into gear 😅and the clutch feels like a break pedal so bleeding it again and reverse bled to see if that changed anything and still the same no air in the system it's like it's not releasing the clutch so I can engage into a gear any thoughts? Thanks
So many questions I’d like to ask but I’ll limit myself to two. How do you proceed if you discover that the rear main seal is leaking, I imagine that could cause you quite a headache? and do you ever have problems with plastic electrical connectors (or is that just me)?
From experience a rear main oil seal will only leak as a result of free play in the main/big end bearing. Otherwise that seal coated in oil wouldn’t just leak. Replacing it would only mask the problem temporarily… To do it correctly I’d remove the sump. Replace the bearing and then proceed to replacing it. Plastic connectors or pipe has to be handled delicately… because I know of the end result I will make sure to avoid any mishap. And that is completely possible. .. so I take that route.
Hi Have been seeing your videos for a while now and wondering about these dual mass clutches... are they adjusted from the factory, or do you do it before they go on the engine.. Big fan from Denmark - vauxhall (Opel) owner
The dual mass flywheel is set and doesn’t require adjustment. The pressure sometimes has self adjusting mechanism built in. So tightening down the bolts in sequence and incrementally is very important
Hi After our last talk about clutch replacement🤗, my wife and I threw ourselves into it. But we have run into a little problem, I hoped you might be able to explain. Every gear is working 2,3,4,5,6 and R but it won't go into 1.

@@WMCS I’m handy but never done a job that involved. Next job on mine is cambelt and the camshaft dephasers, solenoid valves. I want the clutch done but it isn’t slipping yet so o might wait for a bit
I've got an Astra H 2006 1.6 XEP with 260 000km which has started shuddering slightly when releasing clutch. After looking at this video I'm confident to do myself. Thanks. Done a clutch on the old 1993 1.6i Monza, so much easier than the Astra.

Not bad. Priming it works just as good.
Leave the bleed nipple open and pump air out. And close on the last pump and bleed at the very last stroke.

The car is a bit crusty. Do they use salt in UK?
Yes lots of grit in the road. But sometimes it depends on the region where the car is originally from. As some places are a lot wetter than others.

If i didn't have a clue about cars they could've easily lead to catastrophic failure s if left alone too long, and even then I had to adlib adding part's superior to factory ones.

Most likely wrong clutch. There was a recall on the flywheel from manufacturer.
There’s a difference of about 1.5mm
Amazing work, what is the red grease you put on the output shaft ?
Rubber grease
So many questions I’d like to ask but I’ll limit myself to two.
How do you proceed if you discover that the rear main seal is leaking, I imagine that could cause you quite a headache?
and do you ever have problems with plastic electrical connectors (or is that just me)?

Yes. The same.
