Hahahha, so take all your tools next time...
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 09-08-2012
That would be a good idea wouldn't it haha!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 09-08-2012
i'm currently doing this myself 1 man job what are the chances of pug keeping the fork plasticy bits in stock do you reckon very slim me's thinks hopefully should go smooth!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 09-08-2012
One man job!? I'm not even gonna attempt lifting the box on my own lol.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 09-08-2012
box is light!!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 09-08-2012
Yeah but I'm weak.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Ruan - 09-08-2012
No seriously, the boxes aren't that bad - at least not heavy, just awkward.
I'm hardly Mr. Muscle and I can easily swing them about - the GTi boxes are a bit heavier, but the 5 speeds aren't bad at all in honesty - I've dealt with a lot worse!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 09-08-2012
Tbh I'm more concerned about the position of the weight, rather than the weight itself, Ive lifted gearboxes before.....just not from under a car on a driveway lol. Hopefully it'll be alright though!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Eeyore - 09-08-2012
Massive thanks to Tom once again. I was watching horses prance around and getting points accordingly... Yeh its a bit of a spare car but it needs to be done in the next month or so. Ill run out of money to run the speedboat soon and then ill have no choice but to fix this and sell it or the 1.8 on!

I'd make sure i've got them before attempting the job fella, would be horrendous if you got half-way through the job and discovered you couldn't finish it without new ones so had to put it all back again lol.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 10-08-2012
mine are fine, just thought while it's off get It replaced.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 29-08-2012
Right, were stuck again!! Need a universal stud remover.....but can't find one in halfords.....any idea where we can get one??
RE: HDi Clutch Change - samass - 30-08-2012
motorfactor. pretty sure gsf sell em
or, two nuts, lock em together on the stud and use a socket or bfo spanner
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Eeyore - 30-08-2012
^^ thats a good idea! Ill have a rummage and see what i can find! Only 2 weeks left to do this in D:
RE: HDi Clutch Change - DaveW - 31-08-2012
I tried the the 2 nuts locked together and that did'nt work! had too much threadlock on mine, 2 weeks left! ive already done mine
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 31-08-2012
Its not really 2 weeks if sam want to use the estate for Uni..........I bet there'll be more stuff needs replacing when we can finally drive it lol!!
Also still dont have a stud remover lol...............
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 01-09-2012
I found this in the motorfaftors.....think its the right thong...but its 18 quid!? There must be cheaper ones about surely!
RE: HDi Clutch Change - DaveW - 01-09-2012
Ebay it £8
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 03-09-2012
Can't wait for ebay postage really..........however, I have just found this at the 'other' local motorfactors I always forget about lol....it's next to 'The Golf' pub....time for some photos while Im there then.

RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 03-09-2012
Just my luck, they dont stock it!!!
Can order it....for after 2pm tomorow, well thats really useful!
So now the option is to spend more on the one pictured above, or to order that one but wait longer....we were supposed to be doing this tomorow morning you see. Hmm......
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Poodle - 03-09-2012
You both fail so badly...

I couldn't disagree with you.
However Ive now bought the more expensive one (Sams paying lol) so we should be cracking on with this tomorow! Try to at least get the box and clutch off if nothing further lol.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 03-09-2012
i didn't even remove the stud only took me 6hour's on my own and the pressure plate i had to angle grind off.

Dude ill give you a call if I end up needing a hand. Just ordered my Valeo clutch of Parkers today so hopefully it's here in time.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 04-09-2012
Ok, does anyone know where the 5th bellhousing bolts it?
3 on top, allen one underneath (with PAS pipe)...............cant see another one!! Yes, I know....we fail.
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 04-09-2012
don't know if that was sarcasm above but i was pretty chuffed tbh
2 bolt's underneath one near the bottom of the engine then one near the top of the engine not much help but if you have 3 out on the top it's just one's underneath just do abit of feeling for It and you'll find It
RE: HDi Clutch Change - Toms306 - 04-09-2012
Me sarcastic? Nahhhh.
Seriously though, well done.....no idea how long its taken us now, probably 6 weeks lol.
We got the bottom bolt then, wo just the higher up one to find....hmm....
RE: HDi Clutch Change - JamesG - 04-09-2012
i Dunno where you live but if it's local i don't mind popping to lend a hand and if you have the one with the pas pipe then you need to find the one that is up just above It a little higher up.
Hope that help's
