Importance of checking the timing belt before the scheduled times.

Model: Audi A4 B9 - Years 2014-2024
Part: Timing belt

In this video we can see firsthand the importance of checking the timing belt, before the usual 10 years or 180,000 km established in this case by the timing of the Audi A4: in fact, the example car is only eight years old and has just over 100,000 km, yet, after removing the cover, we can see that the belt is already full of grime, the water pump is starting to leak, the bearings are losing grease, and the belt already has cracks. This happens when many short trips are made, because the belt wears out more when there are many starts. Furthermore, we can see that the radiator is very dirty, and could have overheated quickly due to the excess of dirt.

How to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?

To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
