Not A Fan Of These!

Well Hello There Fellow Technicians And Hivers!

The Similar Renault!

Now these... these I ain't very fond of at all!

I mean is there even anyone out there that likes working on a Renault? I can hardly think so? Perhaps a older Renault but these new generation stuff, well they are just built in some weird whack way!

I mean they even stole the transmission from Ford! Laughs, well I can't confirm that as a fact but it's the same damned transmission!

I'll be honest guys this one really broke me! I snapped like a twig! But I had to get the job done or I would have been done for! Laughs!

Does This Look Familiar?

For those that closely follow the stuff I share, well they have certainly seen this transmission before, but this guys and gals is actually a Ford transmission.

Okay, with some slight differences, the first being the Renault badge on it and secondly it only has two speed sensors and then it has a crank sensor located on the transmission it self, the output speed is pulled from the wheel speed sensors...

Where as compared to the Ford that has three speed sensors where one is a output sensor on the differential inside the transmission. Then there might be some small differences in the mounting area and all that.

Although when you tear it open it is the same thing!

The clutch system also looks a lot different, only the front though everything behind the input shaft is the same!
How Ironic? Where did the French and Americans meet up?

Pesky Studs!

Most people who work on either Nissan or Renault is bound to know about those pesky studs!

One on the transmission and one on the engine block! Damn I hate those things! At first I don't because I always think "Yeah this can help me a lot with the alignment of the transmission and then it ends up being in the way!

None the less I did get it joined eventually, and let's hope I don't get another Renault for a couple of months!

I'm sure this client will be very happy to receive his car back in good order! Oh I never mentioned, this was only supposed to be a bearing job and it ended up with a clutch as well!

Take note this is not a how to guide, merely myself talking about the work I do and my thoughts around certain things.
