Thank you for this video! The TRQ one wasn’t gonna work! That connection midway has no way of coming off while installed on the car! I barely was able to break that line with it out! This video removing directly from the Rack is the way to go!
I would personally not service that car too much liability. The fact that they try to tell you you were the last one to change the oil they are looking to pin the fault on you. Soon after if this engine fails your pretty much left to pick up the tab by being the last one to touch it.
@@partsshooterthe previous owner can say your the last person to touch it and that the car was running perfect before you handled it. Any future issues they will try to pin it on you. The fact that they try to say you were the last shop to touch it is already a bad sign. Be careful with this customer
@donventura3844 that's absolutely not the case. Customers make recollective mistakes, this should've been mentioned in the video. Should've... As long as my client and I are on the same page, repairs are fell through with. I don't have clients like most yall deal with, more go one behind the scenes negotiating services than what you see on camera. However, speculate as yall will
There are two small aluminum pins that will fall to the floor when you loosen the carrier bracket. Keep an eye out for them, they are easy to miss. They go into the holes right next to the bottom two bolts to align the carrier bracket. Most videos on this job don't mention them. Yea, in the rust belt, just buy a new bracket and clip. It isn't worth the fight if it doesn't come out easy.
DO NOT change a battery like this on a late-model EURO car, you will be resetting/initialising modules all day long and it's best to get into the new habit for all cars regardless. Keep 12v power on the car at all times, if you must jump another battery to the car battery terminals, then be sure to do it safely to save yourself some real headache that you are not going to get paid for the time lost Bro. Your viewers complain about your battery-changing skill because you don't care about the industry standards, it's your responsibility, so do what you do. You are still using the words that a bidirectional scan tool is needed, we don't need bidirectional to clear codes, we do need a tool that does clear codes, not just a cheap code reader. Thanks for the legwork that you did to look up these case and the possibility that a weak battery could be a problem, cheers.
Bro, pressure equals temperature, the higher the pressure, the hotter the freon, proportional to each other, use your hand to feel around the AC system to get a feel for how to diagnose an AC System by HAND, you will learn a lot. You have an AC hose coming out of the compressor, it has a bulb on it, that is a muffler, those get clogged with stuff when bad things happen when you have serious maintenance on the full system, do not buy a hose with a muffler or it may clog again quickly if a serious job of flushing the system was not completed, essentially replacing everything. As for the TITLE of the video, "easy diagnosis", looks like you were struggling and you did not verify any powers coming out to the plug at the compressor when you hotwired the head unit, at least not on video where the proof is for us and you were a bit selfish by not showing the schematic. You were telling DIYers to get a bidirectional tool but you did not do the process on video. I do believe that due to the floating voltage that the head unit is bad.
If you notice before he takes off the original chain you can see that the chain is above the water pump he assembled the new chain and he mounted it below the water pump
Quick question i have a 2010 nissan maxima sv with over 2 hundred thousand miles the transmission is going out on it and now the engine has started smoking i can smell oil when it smokes out of the exhaust what do you think this could be?
Have a 1997 Honda civicHX (different lol ) got it for 300 crank no start with 264k miles little old lady just got to old To drive it and sold it to me ! same issues went to junkyard after replacing the fuel pump tune up oil change so I started googling no prime from the fuel pump instead of just crank no start and I came across 3 videos pointing the ecu! Got it two weeks ago and after watching your video and 3 others I ended up a junkyard got one from a sedan 1.6 5 speed! I said If I plug it up then it primes we got ourselves a car ! THAT THING PRIMED UP AND STARTED ! Thanks so much and it’s exempt antique tag here I come lol
What part would cause a leak down the back side of the motor that drips onto the exhaust? 08 odyssey, j35. Valve cover gaskets have both been gone, and the solenoid on the backside isn’t leaking, but I can’t see anything else.
BTDT. On the one i eas working on , both cooling fans were blowing continuous. Replaced the thermostat and compressor started working and coolant fans started working correctly.
Is 5V also coming to my test light, this is why I dont use a test light to test fuses, I use a multimeter with a test light shunted across the meter leads for a load. BATT harness buried in water and severly corroded how far down that copper wire. SORRY BRO, but why do you have the mentality to do the cheapest repair you can, this car owner of an expensive car is going to need to purchase a new OEM battery harness and little fuse block to CYA please. If they dont care enough to check the trunk once in a while and clean it as part of their normal care procedures, then I cannot help them if they cannot help themselves.
The good solenoid shows the hump in the amp waveform as this is the pintle opening, the voltage trace shows the pintle closing, the bad soleoind does not show these attributes as the pintle is shot, hence the different sound. There is mechanical information in the humps based on where the hump is happening. Thanks for doing all the diagnostics so we can simply do SWAPTRONICS to test the 2 solenoids, again with no scope required but watching the pintle humps is what I want to see to check mechanical ability on a working unit with no broken internal return spring, cheers.
What about a gas flush but rather than having the engine run and pump it to the top end just use a transfer pump to recirculate gas coming out the oil drain plug back into the oil fill on the valve cover.
I hope you're making more videos. This was a great demonstration. I looked at other videos of the same job and they weren't clear at all. In fact, they made me wish that RU-vid would show us the number of dislikes on a video again.
@thewiseone6049 just simply go to my channel... I dished out several videos! The lexus gs400 is currently taking off, it's a long diagnoses though. I do agree on the dislike button, very bittersweet
I do this all the time since I have a diesel and the EGR just clogs up the entire intake system. But what works better is acetone. It's a bit more expensive but the results are bare shiny metal. Don't worry if it goes past the piston rings just change the oil after. After the cleaning I always put a bit of oil into each cylinder since the acetone will certainly strip the rings and cylinder walls of any and all lubrication. It will be a completely dry start so keep that in mind if anyone tries this. Works great though, melts the diesel snot away in seconds!
ANY ENGINE NEEDING A BALANCE SHAFT = is totally crap and do not buy = 60 odd years car makers did not need it = designed by = unskilled design ! KEEP AWAY FROM JUNK ENGINES !
I work at a dealership and one of the ladies in the office owns a 2017 Infiniti QX60, same engine as this one. She didn't change the oil for 30k miles. The sludge i encountered was just as bad as what you saw on this video. Surprised it still ran decent. I just did the oil change, then 2 drain and fills. Then another oil change 1 week later. It definitely cleaned up the inside of the engine. She swore up and down that she's changed her oil on it many times since i worked there. I've been working there for 3 years and not once seen her bring her car in. And proved that she hasn't changed it cuz her oil sticker said it was due at 36k miles and her car had 58k miles.
@RicardoPCGamer thanks for that story. I would've love to have seen the difference yours made. Good thing in our situation the sludge isn't baked on as some can look like coal chunks.
To all the wingers and moaners , complaining this and that about this guys methods. Be thankful he took the time to show you this! If you dont like it, then pi55 off somewhere else. Thanks for the vid bud😊
Poor air intake boot, and the battery is def in backwards 😂. I been havin oil all over my transmission for a while now thinking it was my rear main seal n ignoring it n topping off my civic. Just replaced fuel injector o-rings, n noticed a considerable seepage coming from my vtec solenoid. I think mine is from on top not the same spot as this one. My 5 speed is pushin 370k miles lol. Anywho, nice vid thanks for posting !
I noticed on the fuel pump your missing some o rings and that mass airflow sensor is squirrelly with aftermarket , I have the same car and I had to get a used denso maf from eBay and clean it out for mine to work properly.
Hell yeah man, although no monitoring tools I replaced all 4 O2 sensors at once on my Wrangler JLU and my P0219A is gone without resetting DTCS. Data sharing is the best as it brings logic to the madness thanks a bunch 🤙🏾
