Such an underrated video!!! Great job! You mentioned every tool used, propped names for things, proper procedures, etc!! Amazing at home diy on a budget. Much respect.
Respect. I need to replace my transmission since 5th gear won't stay engaged. I didn't think it could be done from the ground. You just proved me wrong!
Wow. I'm impressed, and discouraged. I can't even get the air box off and replaced in 14 minutes and you did the whole thing in 14. Seriously, though, awesome job and details.
8:39, massive hole in flywheel housing! That’s probably worth plating over. Good job though, I’m about to do my mk4 golf tdi. Getting my research in before starting
Yes I think you need a second person, for a short time - to help detach the transmission once you have all the fasteners removed, so that it doesn't drop down too fast and damage something, and to help get the transmission back up and into place when you are ready to do that. But you don't need pure muscle power to get the transmission back up, for example. You can have one person aligning the transmission input shaft with the clutch pressure plate, friction disk, and engine gland nut, and the other person lifting the transmission upward. However the person lifting it upward can use a jack to lift it upward. I don't think you would need a nice rolling-around hydraulic jack like you have supporting the engine. Just an old scissor jack should do. Maybe put a piece of plywood on top of it. Also a plain hydraulic jack without wheels should work. No? I'm just guessing; I've never done this before. But I've removed air-cooled engines from air-cooled VW bugs and that's what I did. I think maybe I used just one scissor jack right under the oil drain plug which appeared to be at the center of gravity to gently let the engine down, and gentlly lift it up. When lifting the engine probably I kept piling up pieces of one by four lumber under each of the heat exchange boxes on each side of the engine, so that if the scissor jack wasn't perfectly centered and the engine rocked from side to side, each heat exchange box would never be more than an inch or so above a wooden support block. Jack the engine up another inch, add another inch-thick one by four, jack it up some more, etcetera. I recall using a helper but they didn't have to be strong. They only had to operate the scissor jack while I looked to see if the hole were aligned. I seem to recall eventually figuring out how to do it without a helper but I'm not sure.
Bro, I have a MK4 2.0 that I burned the clutch out on. Its cold as hell where I am right now and I don't want to freeze my ass off. I want to know how long it took you to actually complete this project?
Before you start make sure you have All the tools you parts and tools you need. Your going to need help pulling the transmission off and pulling it back in. Should take you 3 days

Or use a jack to support it and lower it
Definitely 🇯🇲
Yea man yuh dunkno

Did u remove the axle on both sides?
Yes
Freddie Villa yes
They’re both connected to the transmission.. it wasn’t hard at all
