    Well done for taking that on using stands , that flywheel looked done really heat soaked would have changed that too

    Fair shout. But you should of replaced the dual mass flywheel at the same time as it will be as worn as the clutch plus the clutch plate surface has been well overheated. My advice would be to take the transfer box off from the start. Just some advice for the future 👍🏻

    I’m really glad you’ve managed to get some more content from this little car. It’s the reason I found your channel in the first place, and still to this day it’s the most comprehensive series of crash damage repair videos for an Audi S1 anywhere on the internet. Full props to you for taking on so many challenges in a cold & tiny space with the minimum of equipment. You’ve definitely inspired me to tackle much bigger challenges that I’ve previously thought were too difficult with my projects, and when I feel like things are tough, I remind myself of what you’ve achieved in some adverse situations & conditions.

    Nice one mate, absolutely awesome job given the space available. Used to do street and lock up spannering when I was younger so props to you taking on that job in a lock up! Only suggestion would be get those bolts out the front driveshafts and give them a fresh application of thread locker. They are notorious for backing out after being loosened and then the half moon shape metal washers smash off the box and act like a lathe.
