Thanks for taking the time to make this video, but I would have definitely have replaced the rotor. Because you have those "light" gouges and scratches on the rotor that is more than enough to have warped that rotor significantly that will cause brake petal pulsating and also cause premature pad wear.
tell me why this is the ONLY helpful video i have seen so far after watching 80 million videos and calling around at auto body shops 😭fixing to do this my damn self
Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe to show some support. I actually loosened up the fairings and tht allowed me to get to the screw bcz it's tricky
Great video, thanks for sharing :) A few questions: 1. You didn't need a torch to loosen bolts? 2.Why didn't you use brake grease? 3. Did you bleed brake lines?
I just wanna say thank you for doing this as being someone who didn’t have that person to show me how growing up, this helps tremendously. You’re helping a whole world of people out here :)
I am very good at messing things up, I feel like I can start this but then get the car towed to a shop. so i will skip...! Plus on average I buy and sell 2 cars a year. My Eclipse would probably be gone wat before it needs spark plug replacement.
Just a quick Disclaimer I'm not a certified Mechanic and it's at your own risk. I would take the shock back to the supplier because it could be faulty.
anyone about to do this, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE SOMEONE HELPING YOU OR SOMETHING HOLDING THE TRUNK UP. I just did this without thinking and as soon as i popped the first one off my trunk fell and the glass shattered on top
04 gt sypder...in the process of doing this now.. is it really necessary to put the bolts back in for both the brackets? does it really matter or make a difference? thanks
Disclaimer : I'm Not a Certified Mechanic. But yes it is very important to put those back lol. I used a swivel socket and slowly but surely put em back in. If you don't put those back, there will be Bigger issues caused by the Motor Vibrations.
Great video! I’m dreading doing this to my 2004 spyder. I was wondering why you didn’t choose to swap the distributor cap and rotor? I think I would want do that while in there. Or did you do recently?
I just gave this a try on my 2012 NAV; when I did, the car started rough, then kept revving to around 1200 and back down in park for a while by itself. I let it idle for around 15 minutes in park like another comment suggested, and now it’s idling fine, but when I try to rev it it gets to around 1200 and drops back down again, so the car is undrivable currently. I’ll update this comment if I figure out a fix. Update 1: reinstalled the old sensor, the original problem is back. Rough start, no tach, won’t go into gear. Am now also getting a P0335 code. Update 2: replacement part is back in, made doubly sure to connect everything as tight as possible. Same as OEM part; rough start, no tach, P0335. Update 3: now also getting P0336. Can't fix it at all, just had it towed to the shop. Update 4 (FIXED!): took it to the shop, apparently they needed to reset the computer and let it re-learn the timing of the crank sensor as well as the clutch sensor? Weird, but it's running just fine now and it only cost me a diagnostic fee.
I might have to take the radiator hose off because it was tough for me to reach down there? The yellow lock tab I see that it's not on the replacement. How does it come off so I don't break it?
So it's a pain in the butt to get of but, Gently pull it up so you don't break it as it slides into a little metal rod like a cap. DISCLAIMER: Do it at your own risk lol I'm not a mechanic
Hi mate, just wondering how did it go over the past year? Was the issue totally gone by changing the crank sensor? Im about to order todayband hoping it will fix mine too. Cheers with this very helpful vid and hoping to hear from you soon.
Attention; what nobody mentioned is if you replace the sensor and your car still stalls or runs crappy ,It probably needs to relearned the timing.Start your car and let it idle for about 15 minutes, if it stalls ,turn it off and restart it till it runs normal.If it doesn't fix itself you may have other problems.But let it try to relearn the correct timing.
A faster way to reset is to disconnect the battery for 10+ minutes. Do NOT use a setting keeper, just disconnect the negative for 10+ minutes, reconnect, and the learning procedure starts from scratch.
Rofl 🤣 the funny part out of all of this is that you still Watched my Video and won't acknowledge the Fact that it took a 4v1to Stop me!! U guys are Trash.. lol
