Hi Kevin, I heard your customer comment about Skoda in New Zealand. I live there and two years ago (Xmas) we bought an RS245 Wagon over a VW. The simple truth. All the same tech as VW & Audi for a 1/3 of the price. I stumbled across your channel as i was looking for someone who's replaced rotors and brakes on a VAG car. I need to admit, you're very exceptional at your job Kevin; you make it look so easy - clearly it's not. I wish you all the best health and a long career chief.

Before I watch this video, I'll just comment... I followed your videos on the Insignia and the Astra (I have the 13 plate SRI Insignia) to help me to do the job myself, because I was well outside of your coverage area. I purchased the Sachs clutch kit (including DMF and new CSC), purchased all of the tools necessary and I followed everything you did on those jobs. The end result? SUCCESS! And I can't thank you enough again for your videos. You inspired me and gave me the confidence to do it myself and it was a 110% success. Of course, the job took me 10 hours opposed to - how long does it take you? 4 or 5? The DMF was battered and needed grinding off, the pressure plate bolts were rounding off and I had to find equivalents to replace (could hardly get them off without drastic measures) and every step of the way seemed to throw something new at me - really gave me a challenge. I'm now all beat up from doing it - especially my right hand from trying to get to that evil bolt on the back of the starter motor - you know the one? How do you do this every day? Are you a machine? Big kudos to you.
