So I'd like to issue a CORRECTION! At 9:49 I incorrectly identified the locking plate washer as a shim and put it on the wrong side of the flywheel. This is actually a washer intended to prevent the bolts from backing out. In the part 1 video the washer was in the correct position, but as it had been a couple of months between disassembling the car and reassembly I made a mistake. Fortunately this is a non issue as the part doesn't affect clutch engagement and there is more than 1mm of tolerance along the drive shaft, plus a liberal use of loctite on the clutch bolts so I'm not worried about anything coming apart. Anyone who follows this procedure in the future keep that in mind.
You are fantastic. Thank you. Have been waiting a long time for the sequel of your video. Please keep us posted with everything you do on the 4200! Best regards
Hello, it's been a privilege that i can watch you work on that vehicle! Actually, I currently own a quattroporte f1 transmission version, and it had a gear unavailable worning for a some time when I down shift from 3rd to 2nd..... and then recently it did not start. Not even crank. I assumed that it was a transmission failure becaus all that is showing me was still a gear unavailable notice.... So I replaced the clutch, but the same thing is still happening. No crank, no codes on scanner. But, the ignition goes on and it starts when i starts forcing with a scanner. But, as you ca guess....the gear won't work. Any options in this?
My windshield wipers are not working I checked the motor the motor works there's power going to the windshield wiper through the wires I took about the switch the switch looks fine but no luck I can't find a problem even though there's power everywhere and the motor works what do you think
It really is a good car if you're a proper tinkerer and enjoy learning by doing. The biggest pitfall is that you really do need a hoist or a lot of the jobs become very inaccessible.
What was the torque spec for the bolts holding the clutch & pressure plate to the flywheel? I'm replacing one of these as well and this video has been so helpful. thank you very much!
I think it was around 80Nm, but I can't recall. The best thing to do is check the bolt and grade when you get them out and then google a torque spec chart. Otherwise you can find some manuals around on ebay!
Hi Mate, great work! Couple of questions: Did you balance the clutch and flywheel as an assembly off the car? or is it balanced well out the box? Also the flywheel washer is shown as the other side of the flywheel (i.e clutch side) on the diagrams does it matter? Last question, after a clutch change would I be able to drive to a garage to get it set up on the diagnostics? Keep up the good work mate
I had it balanced as an assembly! I realised I put the locking washer on the wrong side, mistaking it as a spacing shim. Fortunately it won't have any affect (I've addressed it as part of the upcoming video). You would be able to drive it to a shop, but sometime next week my 3rd video on the clutch - the setup - will be coming out so you'll be able to see the process yourself! Make sure you subscribe!
Hi, great Video, I have a 2006 QP and I am told the Clutch sensor is gone, as it does absolutely nothing every warning light is on and does not even crank over, now I was on a Maserati Forum and a chap with same problem sai his Dealer was able to change the clutch sensor through the opening where the starter motor fits, now I cannot believe that as surely the flywheel and clutch will not even allow you to see the clutch sensor ?? what do you think, also before I go to all the trouble of removing all the Trans and torque tube can not just connect my new sensor to the loom socket and see if my car will start, and proving that the sensor is the problem, any help or advice much appreciated, Thanks, Regards Eddie Walsh
I'm pretty sure the the early QPs are the same driveline as the GS, in which case there is an access hatch at the bottom of the bell housing. You should be able to remove that, and only that and be able to change the sensor. It is a bit awkward but definitely possible!
@@ShiftMotoring Hi again, and thanks for your reply, that will save me a fortune and a lot of time, I will check as soon as I get the car back from dealer, so again Thanks, it pays to watch experts like you on RUclips, Eddie
@@ShiftMotoring Hi again, well you are definitely a Maserati expert, one other question, I have an Autel Maxi scanner but it does not do anything other than service light so a complete waste of money, so what is a good Scanner for the Maserati and not too expensive, again Thanks, Eddie
www.hillengineering.co.uk/ www.newmodelwreckers.com.au/ www.eurospares.co.uk/ www.scuderiacarparts.com/ www.barbagallo.com.au/service-parts/vehicle-parts/ I've bought parts from all those locations. Pricing might vary between regions, so sometimes it is more cost effective to purchase from a different country! I found Australia has the clutch itself at the lowest price.

Could you please add part numbers, like that Hill Engineering bearing, to your description?

Yessss! Keep the content coming my dude!!!! Love it!
I finally replaced the alternator, I'll be filming part three soon so I'll be going through clutch setup!
@@ShiftMotoring please do! Otherwise I might have to post one lol mine will need to be replaced soon:)

I’m ok with wanting a 4200 because i know what I’m in for … accessible engineering with a constant learning curve …

Thanks that’s very good info.
Yes, subscribed mate, will help no end when I do my clutch job 🤙
No idea how you got the clutch shaft off, that lock ring is a bitch to try to undo.
so did you reset the clutch wear and program the shift points? My coupe is in shop for clutch replacement now
I did, and I started filming the guide on the clutch setup just a few days ago. If you stay subscribed part three will be out in a few days!
Where did you do the work/get access to a garage? Is this a rental DIY garage?
No, the shop belongs to a friend of mine - they're located in Perth, Western Australia and do euro cars.

Hey friend
Do you need to adjust it in the computer after changed it?
Yes you do! That is coming up in Episode 3 once I'm done replacing the alternator!
@@ShiftMotoring how do you adjust it?
How hard is it to align and seat the torque tube back to the gear box? Because im struggling to get it to get the gear box back to the torque tube
It shouldn't be difficult. The only part I struggled with was clocking the teeth on the tube correctly
@@ShiftMotoring i can't ge the plastic tube that spins on the torque tube to go into the rear gear box im stuck
@@DrivenGarage Head over to the maserati life forum, start a thread with some pictures and we'll see if we can work out what is wrong
i have a question is a same process for all Clutch F1 ? nice job 👍
Yep, all that generation of Ferrari and Maserati are very similar!
@@ShiftMotoring 😃
Is It expensive clutch kit?
About $2500 ADU
@@ShiftMotoring + work... so +-3000 or more for clutch service?
@@mrerasmo1985ms Yeah that sounds about right

@@ShiftMotoring thank you for the help
thanks, because you never know
How much did it all cost you
It was about $2500 in parts - AUD
