How did you get to the bolt that connects engine to transmission that is inside the front engine mount to the cross-member (near the starter motor)? Did you remove the radiator and all?? I can't see how I could possibly undo those wacking big nuts without better access...

Just had new clutch kit put in. New oil. Still feels bit clunky going into gear. Not just 3rd. Clutch us nice and smooth just nit happybwith gear changes still. Any ideas would be very appreciated

@Choopuhcabra 3 года назад

Great vid mate, any chance you adjusted the biting point yet? i found the forum post walk through photos, but am still scared to do it without watching a video!

@FNLEW 3 года назад

Thank you mate. To be fair I've been on track with the car since then and I'm in no rush to adjust the biting point anyway. With it now all selecting gears better than ever I'm just happy with how it is.

Think my clutch springs are rattling on mine too, getting a rattle at low revs, pretty sure it's from the clutch

@FNLEW Месяц назад

Worth checking it out mate

@sandstorm7349 3 года назад

Did u find your biting point got lower or higher the more worn the clutch was getting?

@FNLEW 3 года назад

I'd say it got lower the more worn it was but it didn't raise that much with the new one. Just got easier to engage.

@richardd8352 2 года назад

My clutch pedal can be firm and all gears are a little more notchy than I'd like.....I'm thinking clutch too. I'm not getting any crunchy gears or any gear that is worse than any other, just too notchy in all gears and clutch pedal feel is not great....maybe time for clutch myself? 101k on the clock, I've done trans oil. Also did your clutch kit come with an alignment spline? Did you have to pre load the new clutch? Or was it just a case of take out old one - put new one on and fit everything back in reverse?

@FNLEW 2 года назад

I'd have started with the gearbox oil aswell. It didn't come with an alignment spline but my dad just used his fingers to feel around the edged. No preload aswell. Another cheaper thing to try is maybe look at changing your clutch fluid but that's probably too easy a fix.

@richardd8352 2 года назад

@@FNLEW done the clutch fluid, although I may bleed again, changed slave cylinder, master cylinder (it was creaking anyway) So I think maybe it's the beginning of a tired clutch. Thanks for the video 👍

Hi lew. How did you find the exedy clutch. Mine needs doing and i see mixed reviews online. I can get it for half the price if the genuine honda one. Many thanks

@FNLEW 4 месяца назад

It's been absolutely fine for me mate. Just get a genuine honda release bearing instead of the one that comes with it and you'll be fine.

@ianj010 4 месяца назад

Thank you for your quick response 🙏

@robclarke390 2 года назад

You said on the video not to undo the suspension to swing out the hub to remove the drive shaft as it ruins alignment. How SHOULD this have been done? 👍

@FNLEW 2 года назад

It's something to do with either where the hub meets the lower arm or where the arm pivots from the chassis. Either way it's NOT where the shock is bolted to the hub.

@HughCStevenson1 Год назад

The ball joint where the lower control arm connects to the bottom of the strut.Take out the pin, undo the nut and bash the ball joint housing until it pops apart. See this video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4VAx_CXQGeM.html

Nearly 120k but don't know when it was replaced previously if it was.

I haven't yet mate. Something to do for sure 👍🏻

@brianmcintyre14 2 года назад

@@FNLEW Noticed you had adjusted your biting point, or at least attempted to. Wondered if that was because the biting point was at the floor? The bypass can fix this apparently.

Its need to put engine down? I think about space to take out gearbox.

If changing just clutch then don't need to drop engine.

@edmundslackbladder7940 2 года назад

Did you have to take the front engine mount off to seperate the gearbox - I can't see a way of avoiding it on my FN2.. How many bolts hold the box to the motor? That starter motor one is a B*

@FNLEW 2 года назад

Don't think the front engine mount came off for this. I couldn't say the number of bolts specifically. Wish I could have filmed more in-depth but was such a big job in such a small time period.

@HughCStevenson1 Год назад

Did you solve this Edmund?? I have the car out front in bits and can't work out how to do it...

@jimmystratos2 Год назад

@@HughCStevenson1 Yes I did.. The front round crossmember and the engine mount have to come off (engine supported on something obviously). I can't remember how many bolts thee are - IIRC there are bolts from each side. I had to do it again when the starter motor packed up - it was easier the second time when you know what to do!

@sillymonkay888 2 года назад

Confused why you took off the whole gearbox to change the clutch.. usually enough space in a honda engine bay to loosen and push the gearbox aside with enough room to change the clutch kit

@FNLEW 2 года назад

Definitely not possible in this model. The gearbox is pretty much supported by the engine so once you septate it to replace the clutch it's supported by nothing at all whilst the process is taking place.

@sillymonkay888 2 года назад

@@FNLEW ah I see.. that's annoying then
