Hey, I have a 03 cl type S 6 speed with navigation that I’ll be looking to sell in the near future. Sliver, 67k miles, no accidents. If you know anyone in the community looking for a great example, let me know. Thanks

Hi Ty, have you ever had issue with your CL stalling on the road?. I happened to me the first time in 21 years. I'm the original owner of CLS6. I was driving on highway then got off on to local road then came to a stop light and it stalled. Started backup but kept stalling on every lights. Then the engine's light came on. I had it towed to garage and the next day the mechanic said it start up as nothing had happened. Very strange.

I have a cl6 and a 98 accord. On my accord that happened and it was the ignition switch. Could be something else though...fuel pressure regulator/fuel pump/main relay? Check engine lights? Plugs/coils? Alternator charging battery?
@acura2g
@acura2g 9 дней назад
Always start on the diagnostic clues. Do you have a check engine light? If so, most auto part stores will scan them for free. Does it happen when it's hot? Does it happen during certain situations? Common problems worth looking at: -IACV leak -Main Fuel Relay -Vacuum Leak -Ignition switch Thanks for watching!

Vacuum tested and it's fine. The weather that day was in the 70's one day in early April this year. That was the only time it happened...I'll keep a eye on it and make sure to record everything next time. Thank you for your response.

Master relay switch under drivers dash. RU-vid the video. If it was hotter than 80 or if car was sitting in sun with windows up before you got in could be the answer. Had that happen with my 01 before and I got a relay and it worked. Seemed to only happen on super hot days with windows up in sun

Excellent video! I just purchased an oil separator for my ‘15 Mustang GT and the lines are rubber like this but, one is too long and pinched off from the extreme bend. I’m going to shorten that line and getting a custom bend with no kinks will be perfection. Have you done a video with some of the newer tubings? They might be even easier to make these bends.

Ty, great new format! Much improved. Just out of curiosity how long did the rack take you to do? I just had mine done for $700 in labor. Last summer I replaced all steering and suspension components. The new rack made a huge difference. I bought the car new and I was told the car was in an accident because caster was out of spec and I had to school the ASE mechanic about adding shims to the radius arms. That made no sence to him so I went to anither shop and he dropped the subframe and he was able to make the caster adjustment by moving the subframe slightly after installing the rebuilt rack. The car drives great now just like it did in May 2002 when I purchased it new. How is testing going on the new transmission mounts? I would love to replace mine. Keep up the great work!
@acura2g
@acura2g Месяц назад

oil filter is actually made by Fram and is basically is the TG7317, Oddly enough when my ridgeline was had it's dealer free oil changes, the dealer used on Precision Parts PPG4612 which basically is a smaller sized but still decent filter like ST6607. When I did my A13 maintained and cut it open I found it to be decent filter, however was unsure of its micron rating or milage specs couldn't find that. so I assumed it followed the PG4612 filter which is similar but only a 5k filter. when I changed my Trans mission fluid I did just a drain and fill using Idemitsu type H+ (HONDA Z1, DW1) which I believe is who makes HONDA ATF-DW1. I skipped the inline filter but will change it next time. now I know you may not like that I used Idemitsu ATF, I know not to use anything other then DW1 or those multi car formula like Valvoline MaxLife Full Sync ATF. don't ask me how I KNow, I used it once on a Honda Odyssey, and after about a month I went back to DW1 and a big shifting quality difference. since you changed the Filter the number of qtrs. need will be more then 3.3 qts and like around 4 qts. my Ridgeline is a 2019 RTL 2 wheel drive gr8 vid

Would a bad pump cause front brake calipers to lock up or simply abs not work?
@acura2g
@acura2g 2 месяца назад
A bad ABS pump would throw a fault code for the ABS system and the ABS would not work. Calipers locking up is likely a seized caliper piston and would be unrelated.

I’m having problems with mines too. The radiator fans don’t engage when the temperature rises pass operating temperature leading to overheating. The fans work when I turned the ac on so I need by fans work. I deemed the fan relay but I decided to check the coolant temp sensor. I unplugged it and plug it back in while it was overheating and the fans engaged! So I order a new coolant temp sensor and some electrical contact cleaner.
