Question: What ultrasonic cleaning fluid is suitable. It doesn’t mention this in the article. Thanks in advance.

See here, it’s a PH00.

Screw size for iPod Classic 6th gen (6no. Chassis screws)

I pressed gently on the click wheel on the play botton side first to help unlock the glue. Keep away from the screen side best you can.

Here here. Seems to be welded in there. Not a complete dismantle guide. But great up to this point.

EDIT just get a small 1.5 flathead screwdriver into the bottom left and gently prise up.

Ansering my own Q.

Anyone know the song limit for this model?

I opened it with a combination of cutting up a plastic soda 2ltr bottle (based on someone else’s suggestion using a coke can) in 2cm by 3cm pieces and using them to wedge in the sides while I used a Stanley knife to get them in there in the first place. This way you can cut up as many as you want and leave them in so that the cover doesn’t slip back in.

The advantage is that the plastic is so thin yet rigid enough in the 2x3cm size you find that it can push in just as well as some of these pro tools (that normally are fecked afterwards anyway)

It was my first ever go and took around 20mins. I’ve patience to burn, when I want. This is a job you DON’T want to rush. TIP.  Just take your time. Most of that 20mins was cutting the pieces to size. I experimented with different sizes but 2x3cm is a good size.

Now to find a battery supplier that won’t take a month to get here in Ireland.
