I'm having a hard time to believe that the required size is 7/16" what he says tbh on a german car, and the way he describes bleeding a clutch is also not correct. That is the correct bleeding procedure for a brake caliper.
On a clutch slave cylinder you let the clutch spring remove the fluid and not the pedal. He's now only removing air from the line but any air in the cylinder if present wont be removed.
These are basics you have to understand if you want to do a job like this.
I also dont understand why he didnt use a socket to open up that bleeder if he didnt have a flexhead wrench or crowfoot. I mean he doesnt use a bleederhose to collect the fluid. There are multiple options to tackle this minor problem....
He doesnt strike me as the most competent mechanical genius tbh.
At least he didnt waste a good tool. A 7/16 wrench is best destroyed if you're in to bmw's
those yanks....
and if you dont have a transmission jack you shouldnt be changing gearboxes. Sure it can be done but its far too heavy to even come near any H&S regulations to lift it that high. Especially a 6 speed (and with an automatic or dsc its sheer impossible unless youre hulk hogan).
A transmission jack costs 80 quid or so. Thats nothing compared to the price of your tools or carlift or garage/workshop.
