Just used your video to replace the gearbox on my 07 2.5L Renault Master, have never done a FWD box on anything so it was a bit of learning curve! Great vid, no music no waffle just a clear step by step tutorial. So thanks very, very much.
RESPECT MAN ! I have the same van and have maintained it over the years with the minimum of tools like you have. I thought I was the only fool doing this tough job, so I admire you doing it for other people´s cars ! And by the way, an excellent instructive video without one spoken word. GREAT, I love it. Three tumbs up !
Great video, just done one roadside. Not having done one before had a quick look online to see whats involved and came across this Great video. Probably saved me at least 2hours. 👍
@@chris77777777ify thats the theory, but the experience is very different. People want prices set in stone. Once a price has been given then a snapped off bolt can really change things.
Great video. Really enjoyed watching you work. You are a very fast worker. I saved this video as its really helpful to see how to take apart the front suspension on my Movano. If I ever need a clutch I will give you a call!
James Thompson excuse the delayed response. Box is quite a heavy one. Don’t do it alone. get a strong hand. Otherwise www.williamsmobileclutch.co.uk Check us out.
Very helpful video, going to have a go at mine over the winter, thought I was going to have to loosen/remove the drivers side engine mounting too but now I know it's not necessary and the other side is easy enough, not looking forward to lifting and wriggiling the box back into place, will need a few more weetabix in me! Thanks for this - Rob
@@WMCS Hi again Kevin, just to let you know I managed to get a new clutch fitted going by your instructions on the video but had to do it 3 times!!!, first one the cylinder packed in shortly after fitting a Borg & Beck clutch kit so rather than giving me a new cylinder they gave me a new complete kit, same brand Borg & Beck, drove van for a couple of days and same thing happened cylinder started leaking. Then for my trouble this they gave me a Luk clutch kit, the cylinder looked so much better made and was the same design as the old Renault cylinder I took out, that was about a year ago and have had no problems since, so will stay clear of Borg & Beck from now on, the actual Borg & Beck clutch was probably okay but their cylinders are scrap. BTW I found the gearbox very hard to lift/refit on my own so decided to make a little wooden platform that I bolted to angle iron that I welded to the trolly jack head to raise it up to the engine. by wriggling the box on the platform and adjusting the angle of the engine I managed to get in in place with not much effort - Thanks again for the video found it a great help - Rob
Respect, those boxes are fecking heavy, have the same box on my van, I hand lifted the bugger back in then pissing about wiggling to get the spline to line up, I usually lay down in me creeper then put the box on me chest then lift and pivot the box on my knee but didn't have the van high enough to do that last time what with a low garage roof, typical, I'm about to to do the same again but have bought a transmission jack now, I'm 10 years older now and ain't got the power I used to.
Liked the video.Very interesting and well done. Just wonder if you also show the clutch replacement itself. This video is more of a gearbox removal/installation. What I´d like to see as well is how to install the clutch and especially the alignment of the center with DIY tools.
thewarriorCR500 understood. It’s fairly easy to align the clutch. You can get a £5 clutch alignment tool from Euro carparts. I’ll make a separate video on the channel tomorrow on how to align a clutch. Hope that’ll help.
great and usefull video as i need to take the gear box out of my Master for a bearing noise and also a cluch change. hope i'll manage to do the removal and mouting alone :) Thanks!
Be nice if there was a run down of tools used, size sockets needed etc. Thanks - great work!!! Looking at doing this on mine to replacing the bearings in the box.
Nice video mate. Thanks! My girlfriends horseboxes clutch has started slipping. Looks like a shit job. Best crack on soon before it starts getting cold out!
excellent video Thanks for sharing. there is a movement on my gearbox between the gear selector leaver and the gearbox, does this mean i would have to go through the same process in the video to get to the gear selector bearing?
Hi great video u make it look so easy m8. I have a question hopefully you could help me. is there anyway this can be done without removing the offside shaft.
Digne! Efficace ! Que le travail bien fait . Respect de l’Homme debout! A penser: revenu du travail ou revenu du capital : Quelle est la valeur la plus importante pour notre humanité ?
@@WMCS great video, help me a lot in my movano 3500 cdti 2.5.. In my van i can't select 2,4 and 6 gear.. I removed the gearbox today and I found the bearing between the clutch and DMF out of the Dmf.. Can be this one a reason for my gear problems? Thanks
Pontes Mocho it definitely sounds like it’s a likely cause ... one thing you could check if the gearbox is out is the selection of all the gears .... have a good feel if there’s resistance...
I've personally replaced three of my own car's clutches on my drive on my back,it's a satisfying job to do. Main thing that battered my confidence though was my mk2 megane 2.0 rs225.Three times i had to do the job!!!and to this day i still don't know what i did wrong the first 2 times.First twice gear lever was locked solid and just wouldn't go forward into first,i was gutted,the 2nd time same thing,suicidal by this point,third time car just pulled away perfectly!!? Can anyone explain what i could have done wrong as it's really rocked my confidence!,everything was torqued to spec and it was bled correctly,used correct clutch alignment tool etc,the bleeding everyone said would be the difficult part but i found it ok.
You can get the driveshafts out by just undoing the track rod end, hub nut, bottom ball joint pin and top shock bolt. No need to touch the caliper or top ball joint.
@@WMCS No worries, sorry if it sounds like I'm teaching you to suck eggs. I pulled the box on one of these last week and wanted to see how little I could get away with!
Thank you very very much for this no bullshit vid ! I think it's really going to help me on my equivalent master 2, here in the alps. I have just changed both driveshafts, so before do it all over again to try to change my clutch, do you think that a clutch pedal not coming properly back up and the gears being very hard to shift with the shift handle in the first five minutes of driving has anything to do with the clutch being due for a replacement ?
Fair play to ya. Outstanding work, really setting th standard both for workmanship and vid making. Honestly some of th guys I've seen on this channel and tried their fixes, only to find out they total chancers who should be taken out and shot with balls of their own shite. Good on ya.
So that you can lower the grearbox, otherwise the driveshaft on the right side is fixed with a holder and in to the box, so lowering would be impossible.
@@WMCS I work as firework technician,but years ago i was doing mobile repairs for trucks and trailers that transport grains from fields and my days was mixture or grease,dust and mud.. changing gearboxes and transmissions sometimes three times per week
Got to replace mine on a Renault Master II based motorhome tomorrow. CSC has failed and pedal won't come back up. Replacing the entire clutch whilst the box is out. Been stuck in the same place for several days whilst the motor factors got me the parts and running out of water now! What's a realistic estimate on the time to do this from start to finish?
Your the best of the best and I really would need your help with my van if you could help me please how much does it cost to change my gearbox? Do you do these things?? If possible to talk to you I would appreciate it
How do you know that an impact wrench does the bolts up to the right torque settings? I'm worried that mine will strip the thread on the casting. Not really used them much, just got one
there is just one thing that you never show and do not explain . and that is the bleeding progress . how do you you bleed the vans that you work on . clutches exetra........good jobs BTW
RS 500 i do them all. I never reject. You show me a gearbox and I’m onto it...lol. Funny you mention a D4D I went to mid wales to get one done. It was one of the heaviest boxes I’ve ever dangled on top of my head. 😆... as for rav 4. 4x4. It’s a proper c**t.
They are indeed lol fair play to ye,if only the customers knew how hard it is to do a clutch and the heavy lifting involved ya wouldn’t get as much moans lol,”ahh sure it’s only a clutch thing” it’s a matter of looking under and fixing something under the clutch pedal 😂😂 job done😂 👍
