If the water pump, all inlet and outlet pipes, connecting heads, turbo water pipes, and the radiator are not replaced on this car, you will continue to experience leaks somewhere every three months in the future. It is recommended to purchase improved parts from China and avoid using original factory parts! Purchase rubber rings made in Japan whenever possible, and avoid those produced in Germany. For the electronic water pump, it is best to purchase the improved pump developed by the joint venture of SAIC Motor Corporation in China and Rheinmetall AG in Germany. It is advisable to purchase improved aluminum alloy joints for the entire vehicle water pipes. These items are very inexpensive when bought from China, but if you are in Europe or North America, it is better not to repair and consider buying a new car instead.
@@flightgearHDI have noticed on Amazon in Canada that there are sellers offering modified accessories from China. However, their prices are generally on par with or only slightly cheaper than original accessories. Consequently, most people prefer to purchase genuine parts. Additionally, based on my understanding, local consumers are generally accustomed to ordering original accessories in-store, with few being aware of improved Chinese accessories. Moreover, the same accessory that costs me 70 Canadian dollars in China is priced at 300 Canadian dollars, including tax, in Canada, resulting in a significant price difference.
@@user-po8ig2rg8y This product has two grades in China. One is of better quality with superior casting craftsmanship. The other is of lower quality. I hope you didn't make the wrong purchase. Even with prolonged use, there may still be leaks in the aluminum alloy, but not as quickly as the original, preventing immediate driving issues. If you can get sealing rubber gaskets produced in Japan, they are more heat-resistant and can be used for a longer period.
Did you disconnect the battery before disconnecting the ecu? I didn't & I think I have bricked it... crank - no start.... what an absolute pig of a job, I have way underpriced it.
Yes, the first thing i have done i disconnect the battery ( you can see it from the beginning of the video) . Make sure to always disconnect the battery before you disconnect any modules. Thanks for watching
@@akisgarageltdreally? Did you mean 65000 miles? That sounds like it would be something that would be warranty. It was only driven 6500 in 4 years (dunno if the warranty is the same where you are)?
