WeberAuto are always practical. Remember though, John Kelly is an *automotive trade teacher* by profession. He hasn't *worked* in the
*auto trade* since 1991, having been fully occupied in trade training
since. According to the logic of some posters here, John hasn't had any *relevant trade experience* since 1991. Funny how John really has a
handle on all his trade stuff though, isn't it?
What John is doing is what I was studying for at La Trobe Uni,
curriculum design and media studies. Essentially learning how to create instructional materials including video and CBT because that was what Richmond TAFE was well known for.

Doubt that. I have been watching Weber Auto videos for yonks. The model
used in the other video made for a better teaching tool. The Weber State video is more suited to training for mechanics since they already know
all the fundamentals of, say, epicyclic gear trains.

I think what he's really pissed off about is that he planned to post the video so it could be related back to him in some bizarre way, but no one

way of equipment and information. I still have a degree of access at
the local TAFE college. Was offered a full time teaching position a
few years back at the local TAFE automotive department but I politely
declined to to health reasons.
FWIW, I was not comparing myself to John D Kelly. I was saying that I
was, to a degree, following the same path. I have stated in the past
that I wasn't much interested in following a research path as John
Kelly has done, I was much more interested in the creation of
learning material - as stated below. That was what my Grad Dip and
BEd were all about - the development of the necessary skills to
achieve that, including computer animation to video. That path was
stymied by the Victorian State Government when they starved TAFE of
funding in the late 90s and altered the direction of TAFE -
Victorians are paying the price of that shortsightedness to this very
day.
What John is doing is what I was studying for at La Trobe Uni,
curriculum design and media studies. Essentially learning how to
create instructional materials including video and CBT because that >>>>> was what Richmond TAFE was well known for.
comment "This one is more practical" drives you into a major shit storm?
Well, it doesn't. John's video is well resourced, well scripted, etc.
but the target audience is those in the trade. The one I posted was for those *not in the trade*. Horses for courses. As I said, I have watched
most of John's videos, they are all excellent examples for others to
follow.
A very good sign of insecurity on your part.

I think that you'll find that he is a university professor,
You are always banging on about how qualifications prove nothing
but obviously you don't really believe that.
Notice how I put something positive up and it gets crapped on from
a great height by he who hasn't a clue.
Doubt that. I have been watching Weber Auto videos for yonks. The
model used in the other video made for a better teaching tool. The
Weber State video is more suited to training for mechanics since they
already know all the fundamentals of, say, epicyclic gear trains.
it's pretty obvious to any reasonably intelligent person. They are
also used in plenty of places other than in cars.
Yup, my first experience with one was in a Sturmey Archer rear geared
hub on a bicycle, a 3 speed if I recall correctly. Pulling that one
apart and fixing it at age 12 or thereabouts.

You may need a qualification to be a professor, but only a few people so qualified actually become one. Hence becoming a professor is an
achievment not a qualification. Simple enough for you?

would have encountered them and understood them. No need for training
in the fundamentals.
Not everyone. I mentioned the Raveneaux Compound gearset used in many BW
and Aisin transmissions where the use of long and short pinions is the
norm. I mentioned that, due to increased (doubled) axial force on the
long pinions, they often wear through the carrier thrust bushings,
Darren, of delusional world, pooh poohed that idea. But he had no clue.
A bit of IA
˙˙ A worn thrust bearing in the planet carrier of a Borg-Warner
˙˙ 35 (BW35) automatic transmission is a serious failure, often
˙˙ causing significant debris in the transmission pan and leading
˙˙ to a loss of drive in all gears. The wear is usually driven by
˙˙ the failure of the thrust washers situated between the
˙˙ planetary gear carrier and the sun gear.
˙˙ Here are the key details regarding the BW35 planet carrier and
˙˙ worn thrust bearing:
˙˙ Symptoms of Failure: Common signs include excessive endplay in
˙˙ the carrier, a rumbling noise in neutral, and in severe cases,
˙˙ the spider gears rubbing against the case.
˙˙ Cause of Wear: The bronze thrust washers/bearings between the
˙˙ rear planetary gear carrier and the input/sun gear wear down
˙˙ due to excessive axial loads.
˙˙ Consequences: If not addressed, the worn bearings can lead to
˙˙ metal shavings and chunks appearing in the oil pan. In some
˙˙ instances, the carrier cannot be easily repaired and must be
˙˙ replaced as a complete assembly.
˙˙ Diagnosis: During a tear-down, inspect the planetary gear
˙˙ carrier for severe, visible wear on the thrust faces, scoring,
˙˙ and excessive movement of the pins.
˙˙ Repair Considerations: When overhauling the BW35, it is crucial
˙˙ to flush the oil cooler and check all thrust faces for damage.
And I remembered another place where I came across planetary gearsets;
https://www.roadtrains.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/How-hub- reduction-differential-works_010.jpg
Trucks, tractor and earthmover reduction hubs, saw lots of these.

would have encountered them and understood them. No need for training

Not everyone. I mentioned the Raveneaux Compound gearset used in many
BW and Aisin transmissions where the use of long and short pinions is
the norm. I mentioned that, due to increased (doubled) axial force on
the long pinions, they often wear through the carrier thrust bushings,
Darren, of delusional world, pooh poohed that idea. But he had no clue.
His problem not mine.
A bit of IA
˙˙˙ A worn thrust bearing in the planet carrier of a Borg-Warner
˙˙˙ 35 (BW35) automatic transmission is a serious failure, often
˙˙˙ causing significant debris in the transmission pan and leading
˙˙˙ to a loss of drive in all gears. The wear is usually driven by
˙˙˙ the failure of the thrust washers situated between the
˙˙˙ planetary gear carrier and the sun gear.
˙˙˙ Here are the key details regarding the BW35 planet carrier and
˙˙˙ worn thrust bearing:
˙˙˙ Symptoms of Failure: Common signs include excessive endplay in
˙˙˙ the carrier, a rumbling noise in neutral, and in severe cases,
˙˙˙ the spider gears rubbing against the case.
˙˙˙ Cause of Wear: The bronze thrust washers/bearings between the
˙˙˙ rear planetary gear carrier and the input/sun gear wear down
˙˙˙ due to excessive axial loads.
˙˙˙ Consequences: If not addressed, the worn bearings can lead to
˙˙˙ metal shavings and chunks appearing in the oil pan. In some
˙˙˙ instances, the carrier cannot be easily repaired and must be
˙˙˙ replaced as a complete assembly.
˙˙˙ Diagnosis: During a tear-down, inspect the planetary gear
˙˙˙ carrier for severe, visible wear on the thrust faces, scoring,
˙˙˙ and excessive movement of the pins.
˙˙˙ Repair Considerations: When overhauling the BW35, it is crucial
˙˙˙ to flush the oil cooler and check all thrust faces for damage.
Very useful information if you have that failure, but totally irrelevant here.

Darren has the power to make me leave - he needs only come up with irrefutable proof of his claims - and you would have to think that he
would really want to do that, passionately so! But he doesn't? There can
be but one reason for him to keep his proof to himself - it's
*imaginary*, just like his business and trade quals.

Nope, if you want your warranty null and void, work on your own vehicle without qualifications and see what happens. And, given we are in the
era of 5+ year warranties, that could be an expensive proposition.
Incidentally, since the unit has to have it's own cooling system, it

FFS, it has an electric motor or two embedded in there! In the Toyota
Hybrid Synergy Drive systems (such as in my Corolla and your RAV4), MG1 (Motor Generator 1) runs inside the transmission housing and is both lubricated and cooled by the automatic transmission fluid within that transaxle. The transaxle, which contains both MG1 and MG2, is a sealed
unit where the electric motors are run in oil to dissipate heat
generated during high-speed operation, such as when MG1 acts as a
generator or engine starter. It uses automatic transmission fluid to lubricate the planetary gears and cool the motor windings.
You saw the video by John D Kelly, you saw where the motors were
mounted, yet you didn't get that concept? Not as smart as you thought, eh?

the special gear.
to stop you working on your own vehicle. Whether that would be a wise
move depends on your own knowledge and skill.
Nope, if you want your warranty null and void, work on your own vehicle
without qualifications and see what happens. And, given we are in the
era of 5+ year warranties, that could be an expensive proposition.
Incidentally, since the unit has to have it's own cooling system, it
would seem that there are some significant losses in there.
FFS, it has an electric motor or two embedded in there! In the Toyota
Hybrid Synergy Drive systems (such as in my Corolla and your RAV4), MG1
(Motor Generator 1) runs inside the transmission housing and is both
lubricated and cooled by the automatic transmission fluid within that
transaxle. The transaxle, which contains both MG1 and MG2, is a sealed
unit where the electric motors are run in oil to dissipate heat
generated during high-speed operation, such as when MG1 acts as a
generator or engine starter. It uses automatic transmission fluid to
lubricate the planetary gears and cool the motor windings.
You saw the video by John D Kelly, you saw where the motors were
mounted, yet you didn't get that concept? Not as smart as you thought, eh? >>
heaps of heat but bugger all is from the planetary gearsets. It?s the
torque converter that generates heat but only when the unit is multiplying torque. That would be when the impeller is running faster than the turbine and the stator redirecting flow. You can definitely ascertain that by
looking at the trans plumbing. The torque converter generally drains into
the trans cooler before returning the oil to the sump. In the case of
lock-up torque converters, the oil drain is shut off, the body of the
torque converter pressurises and apples the TC clutch. From that point the impeller, stator and turbine rotate as a unit generating no heat and therefore no oil flows to the trans cooler. No additional cooling is
required beyond radiation to and from the casing.

I know exactly how it works, it's not rocket science, and I strongly
suspect that I've had a lot more experience with 3 phase electric motors than you. Maybe your Corolla is different, but the RAV 4 has a separate cooling system for the hybrid control unit, which would imply that there
is a lot of heat being generated there, which, in turn, means that
energy is going to waste.
