Do on left side tutorial not only the right side..or it s hard to do left side because of the windshield motor 😅?i am tired watching right side for every parts you change do left sideeeeeeeeee😑
Also, if you just get new top mounts you can avoid the trouble of compressing the spring to remove the stock hardware and also avoid the hassle in the event that the bearing gets worn out. If you spent a bunch of $$on a coilover set, you might as well get new hardware for the best possible result.

Excellent and precise procedure, very professional oriented video, due the use of a hoist and the amount of tools needed. Very instructive though, it provides a very good picture of the assembly in question, and it might help the more daring, to DIY (maybe with less tools and more time available) without damaging anything too serious.
We have serious mistake in this job. Removing and installing bolt for securing the drive shaft - twelve-sided bolt Note If the screw for securing the drive shaft is loosened more than 90°, the wheel bearings must not be loaded through the weight of the vehicle, i.e the vehicle must not stand on its wheels. If the wheel bearings are loaded through the weight of the vehicle when the bolt for securing the drive shaft is removed, the inner wheel bearing may be damaged. This shortens the life of the wheel bearing.
Is the hub bolt really only 80nm I had to use a scaffold pole to undo mine! Seems very little especially compared to wheel bolts at 120nm. Great video though 👍
Thank you for your comment! It all depends on the type of threaded connection. It is individual for each car, therefore, the tightening torque should be used according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Best Regards, Autodoc team

6:37 - Driver socket #21 but hes using a 20mm spanner??? previous to that at 5:37 hes using some sort of pass through socket (maybe a 21mm) with a 24mm spanner....not sure the info is handy enough, but repetitive plug for "follow the links in the description below to our online shop where you can buy the spare parts shown...." wheres a link to the actual special tools used like the pass through 21mm socket for the strut bolt? it's not a standard 21mm scoket?
