    I made a how to video for installing a Valeo clutch on a 2005 MINI Cooper S. Enjoy!

    Great video. I liked the captions and talk.
    I was just going to watch a few minutes but got sucked in and watched the whole video.
    Thanks for posting.

    Great clutch replacement video for a DIY person to refer to, but it is important to realize that the 9-10 hours it states at the beginning of the video is the time it takes an experienced mechanic to do this, the time can easily be doubled for the home "shade tree" mechanic.
