Hello,
I've tried to search in youtube, but could not found a disassembly, maintenance video on gen 5 CX. There are several on gen 4 and although I understand there are lot of similarities, still I'm wondering if you know any material for gen 5 maintenance. I would like to be prepared and would have questions, like:
- what special tools needed. As I understand, no press needed?
- what exact grease or other lubrication to use and where?
- is a repair kit available with things like gaskets, simmerings, or these are normal, commercial available simmerings?
- what torque setting to use for the screws assembling back?
- threadlock needed anywhere, if yes, which type?
Do you have any material clearing any of the above or anything connected to gen5 maintenance?
Thanks!
JG

I have tried also. There is one video on YT but it shows the motor already disasembled: I have tried myself and managed only to a degree. Im not sure what to do next.... Pull the bearings . I'd like to know what tools I might need. I'd like to remove black plastic cover to reach more gears and replace the old grease. I'm sure somone will post a video. Regards

Thanks for pointing this out. This helps too!
I plan to open it before longer trips in July.
