Welcome to my channel where I will be posting various car related videos. Since I was 4 years old I loved anything and everything that had to do with cars and hope to share my thoughts with others. You will find car driving videos, car repair videos, long term car reviews and more!
@@Lotsofchai After snowfalls of 5 or more centimeters most roads are usually snow covered for a couple days. Side streets tend to be snow covered all winter long.
Hi There. Do you still have your Touareg? I still have my ‘05. Just this year, after being in colder/wetter climate, she’s started having a minor main seal leak, also the P/S high pressure and return lines are leaking. The rack bellows boots as well. Suspension bushings are showing some wear. Other than that, she still runs great. Powerful, tows like a champ. About 8K from replacing timing belt and related front end components. One of the cheapest, and best upgrades for early Touaregs are LED headlights, both H11 and H9 (with resistors in line required to avoid in dash ‘Check Lights’ errors.
I sold mine a couple years ago, it did have a power steering line leak on which I replaced the clam and fixed the problem with. For your power steering fluid don't forget to replace it, it's a mineral oil and not synthetic fluid. Putting in synthetic fluid might cause leaks to appear. Best to stick to OEM fluids (power steering, brake fluid, coolant). I used Castrol full synthetic oil with no issues. Yes LED bulbs worked great for low and high beams. I had also replaced my marker lights and fog lights with LEDs.
I just bought a Touareg 3.2 v6 and I'm not sure I made a good purchase, especially because it has a salvage certificate, but from what I see, the truck is in good condition. What would you recommend I return it or give it a chance? Maybe the gas consumption scares me 😅
Since your truck did not come with the cylinder deactivation because of the chip shortage, is there a flapper valve behind the muffler? I know on the engines that have the AFM, the flapper valve come OEM to help when in 4 cyl. mode. I'm just wondering since your truck did not come with AFM if Chevy left the exhaust unchanged or actually removed it since there is no need for it.
Some advise please my Audi A4 1996 estate has issues in doors looks and I failed to get the replacement can I replace with Aud 4 model 2001 will it fit?
Love the guy coming with shovel to help dig out at 4:08. I got stuck a few years ago in major snowstorm (in Ottawa) turning a corner (Honda Civic) and the fellow living on the corner immediately ran out to help dig me out. So nice!
Hey Tbor great video sorry this is comment on an old video, but I hope you see it. Anyway I am looking to buy this car and want to install a car play device. Just wanted to know if this is a single, or double din as it looks like single. Thanks so much!
Gas tank rusted after only 10 years even though the car was regularly rust proofed, not ideal. Spark plugs are normal maintenance however the ignition coils should not need replacing at 120000kms.
Tbh the maintenance is maintenance starter water pump belts brakes are all normal wear and tear cant expect things to go 200k without replacing them. If it was motor and trans yes its to much money to dump. The 2.7 out of the two engine options is probably the worst to have tbh. Why like this video said to replace a starter you had to lower the engine weird number two the waterpump design its an internal design which is dumb. Its a good motor when maintained but to work on it does suck. The 2.4 is good to have things are more accessible on it. The 3.0 is in between the two others but like the 2.4 the 3.0 last long with minimal issues. The 2.7 you can make them reliable but you got to be concerned with the waterpump for sure. Ive seen some 2.7s go 300k some blown at 120k due to its waterpump design. The 3.0 has seen 300k as well lots of them past 200k the 2.4 and 3.0 are found in mitsubishi cars as well.
@@koopakoop Good to know. What market is it from? For us in Canada DRL is mandatory since 1996, even in imported cars they need to be modified to have DRL always on.
First car was a 2000 Audi A4 1.8T, came with a VHS tape going over all the features. What a trip down memory lane. Happy to see one still on the road because maintenance costs were pretty rough.
My favorite brand is Chrysler my grandma had a 2004 Sebring convertible but I never got to ride in it because my mom wouldn’t let me ride in it, I guess it was because it was a convertible. Then my other grandma on my mothers side got a 2012 Chrysler 200 touring straight from the factory which I really liked she got the V6 model. I don’t know which engine the Sebring had which my grandmother on my fathers side owned because I wasn’t able to ride in it. And so she got rid of it because of that.
I had rust issues in the exact same spot. It didn't last as long as I would have expected for a Mazda but I also put some hard miles on it delivering pizzas.
