    Quick question. Have issues with clutch function intermittently. Slpwly gotten worse. Now it doesnt want to go into any gear whatsoever when on yet when pff has no problem getting into gear. If i start the car in gear it starts to roll and if i can get it going i have to slam into next gear. Could this be a hydraulic issue? Im hoping its not the clutch itself but im not seeing any visible leaks from clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder and the fluid has not changed its level.

He said it's the car, and he's done many before that didn't take half as long. needless to say, I'll never do it again. Some shit needs to be left to the pros.

I don't have friends that can help out with this and didn't want to take car apart. Took to local shop and spent the money to fix it at the time. Glad I did because other things were wrong with it. Going back if I can take the time off I'd replace it myself. I do love learning and doing stuff like this myself.

    @@ledzeppelin1212 makes sense. In Fwd car, all of the major components that makes a car go (engine, transmission, axle shafts) are crammed into 1 tight spot. The axle shaft acts as a drive shaft and suspension for front wheel drive car, so you have to remove the wheels and axle shaft to remove the transmission. In rwd cars, the engine, transmission, and drive shaft all occupy their own space (front, middle, rear, respectively) and once you remove the exhaust, starter, and some wires, you can drop the transmission.

    Yesterday it took my Mechanic friend and I 12 hours on my 350Z. We had to cut rusted bolts to get off the exhaust system and the rear under strut bar. On top of that, what taken more time is that the previous owner used after market flywheel which took forever to remove because how tight it was on and 2 of the pressure plate bolts are stripped when he unscrewed them from being over torqued ... So we had to drive to a Nissan dealership 30 minutes away just for the specific bolts. The 350Z has tons of bolts holding it together more than any car I seen, and now I can see why for a sports car its very durable.

    Is it true that you should never get any oil or any dirt from your fingers or other sources on the clutch pad? My mechanic buddy said it was important it stays clean during the install.

    2 important things to know so you dont kill a new clutch. Don't slam the pressure plate levers with the gearbox shaft as you you hurl the gearbox in, and resting on them isn't so good either, if one of those get bent you'll have clutch shudder. And once you decide to slip the spline in from the gearbox there is no stopping till it all the way in and secured by bolt or at least on the dowels, if you stop and accidentally let the weight of the box on the spline shaft it'll bend the hob is the friction plate and that's probably going to shudder or have a long take up.

    i was like theres no fucking way you only take off the drive shaft and remove a couple bolts and boom your ready to move the clutch. The clutch he removed was from a miata and thats what a drive so I was like OMG it looks easy than I realized that he probably cut aloooooot of shit out to make it a quick and easy video but it just ended up getting my hopes up because I m pretty sure there is other stuff on a miata that you do have to replace in order to get to the transmission I really dont think its thaaaaat easy. My friend replaced his clutch on his truck and I believe it took him overall 3 days to replace it. In a very brutal grueling process that he doesnt probably ever want to go through again But, I am a patient person so I might find it really teidious but would be able to deal with how teidious it could end up being because I know in the end I would be able to figure it out. I just really hope I dont have to replace mine and I can just replace my shifter and it will be fine. Shifting is really loose. It shifts too easily and the pedal feels pretty spongey like its ready to go out again but I have a brand new master cylinder and a brand new slave cylinder and I have bled the system twice because the first time didnt seem like all the air was out of the system and after the second time i ran out of day light but the pedal feels firm every now and then when I drive then goes back to being spongey again so I m very confused on if there is still air in the system or if I do need to replace my clutch entirely. I have also had some grinding issues but I dont know if there are times where its the occassional mishap or my clutch isnt engaging properly and is just rubbing against my fly wheel.

    How-To videos like this have to be concise. If Scotty recorded the entire process and uploaded, no one in the right mind would be able to watch and stay focused. He gives you the key points, an overview of the process with some relevant hints which anyone who is capable to do it, should need. Always have the repair manual of the vehicle you are working on to look up details, bolt/wrench sizes, torque specs, etc. They often have pictures capturing the process. So, a repair manual and a short and sweet "overview" video like this is all you really need, provided you are mentally not retarded, have the proper tools and space to do the job. Btw, it took your friend 3 days to do a clutch job? That is way too long unless there was a good reason. Another thing to keep in mind, actual process will be much more time consuming in real life but as you start doing it, most of it is a bit common sense and will make sense while you are following the outlined steps. One thing most instruction videos do not seem to mention or think it is important is, as a shade tree mechanic who might not have done a specific repair on the particular vehicle, always be organized with the parts, label them if applicable and take some photos of the parts before removing them. Case in point, which way the clutch was facing when you took it off, note any notches, markers, arrows, dots, numbers the part may have on it and pay extra attention to put the replacement part in the same way. If a part is installed using multiple bolts and they are not the same length, make a note of it and know where each would goes. Stuff like this will help minimize errors if not completely eliminate them..

    You're telling me, had to replace the clutch on a early 90's fwd saturn and that was an absolute bitch. My shop teacher told us to remove the whole engine and do it like that, we get about an hour or less of shop time a day and it took around 2 months, if I was to do it again it would take considerably less time because I'd move the transmission, that thing is easier to move out of the way then removing a whole engine.

    My dad and I, (I was 17 at the time) had to replace the clutch on my ranger. Its far more frustrating than this video makes it seem but after a solid day of work and having never changed a clutch before we got it done. I will admit having two sets of arms when lowering the trans really helps and you absolutely need a jack for it. Other than that its fairly straight forward, I bet we could do it again in less than half the time now that we've done it once.

If you go through the hassle to do all of of this replace everything. 99.9% sure that if the clutch is gone from years of wear everything else should go too. Good test of a reputable mechanic. Sleezy mechanics will just replace the clutch so you have to go back in a few months to replace the throwout bearing.

More often than not when I actually observe people taking little shortcuts like that it doesn't realistically harm anything, never mind all the theoretical or hypothetical crap that "mechanics" BS you with to make more commission. Going to the trouble of replacing or surfacing a flywheel that isn't hashed is almost as ridiculous as paying $200 to have valve seats polished when you've already determined that the valve and seat form a good seal, IMO. In a race application? Sure, recondition or replace everything you touch, but the vast majority of drivers don't use their cars hard enough to justify the extra time and money.

    Also, it's worth just inspecting the splines on the gearbox shaft, to make sure they're not worn or damaged. This could lead to the clutch sticking, or worse, sudden loss of drive. This does happen on European motors more than people realise, and is often caused by people being too quick when they set off in first gear.

My problem is that suddenly as I start driving and when I put the second gear, gets difficult in. The other gears, while driving, go more easily. What do you think it is? You think the clutch needs replacement, or the valvolines? Or is it a more compicated problem from the gearbox? Thanks.
