This morning my neighbors BMW X5 had a really bad squeaking sound coming from the front right suspension. I started spraying one thing at a time with WD-40 and moving it up and down by the fender. I started from the bottom at the control arms and bushings and worked up. I finally sprayed the top of the strut tower and viola, no more squeaking. Everything looks good as far as I can see, just have to see if it comes back. WD-40 works like a charm as a diagnostic tool. Thanks for all the info Scotty. I really like your channel.

Thanks Scotty love your videos you’ve helped me so much never been a mechanic don’t know much about cars but you have help me I spent over $1,900in repairs on my 2007 Ford Taurus I paid 600$ for and I started watching your videos and learning a lot it helps me diagnose the problem so the auto shop doesn’t rip me off anymore! I’ve had 3 of your videos help me out with small fixes that the shop was telling me was not gonna be worth doing to the car because of the year of the vehicle telling me $2000 for a cleaning of my valves and some type of flushing and watch some of your videos and solved the problem for $160! Every car shop I go to because I don’t know a lot about cars they try to rip me off thanks for your videos please keep making them

@Hfsdhjf Год назад

I have the opposite problem! The shops don't tell me what needs to be changed in my car, and when they do, I assume they are trying to rip me off. I then end up driving in an unsafe car that breaks, when doing the simple repair the shop suggested would have saved my vehicle and maybe my life.

Don't spray WD-40 on bearings and grease points, that thing will dissolve and clear away the grease. It's not a great lubricant either, it'll evaporate fairly quickly. I use it to clean the chain, crank and cassette of my road bike to then lubricate it again using the appropriate oil, and also to clean wheel bearings when I'm rebuilding them.

@OcRefrigeration 4 года назад

Good video ! i Love Wd-40 ! i Have been using it since 1979 or earlier. its awesome to keep stuff from rusting. i used it on Kawasaki Jet skis at a dealership i worked at as a young mechanic. It was a God send to taking Saltwater jetskis apart. i used to Spray the Entire Boat Down from Bow to stern inside & outside. No Salt deposits ever ! Engines come apart easy ! i would use Gallons of the stuff. spray entire engines down. Wonderful stuff ! after 10 years of spraying down the same ski , metal was impregnated with Wd-40. Not one sign of Rust ever on a Salt water jet ski. One thing though , Do NOT spray at a Greasy area that is supposed to keep grease there. it WILL Wash away & dissolve grease from Ball joints. Do NOT SPRAY Directly into a Ball Joint, it could ruin it. Its Great For Doors in your House that squeak , spray on squeaky hinges , Front door where u put the Key in. Works Wonderfully ! Door Hinges in car doors, Spray in Key hole in door. Works awesome. a few blasts in door key hole ,put key in and out , a few more blasts , and key goes in & out like a dream. Enjoy !

Great video, Scotty, but doesn't the oil get everywhere when you're looking for vacuum leaks? Won't that collect dirt? Could over-spray also cause nuts and bolts to come loose? Used sparingly and with the tube, maybe it's fine. Good point about getting it on the fan belt!

@joevignolor4u949 4 года назад

WD-40 is good for door hinges and also hood, trunk and rear hatch hinges. If you spray the hinges periodically it prevents them from squeaking when you open and close the door and it prevents the hinges from wearing out prematurely to where the door can become loose and not close correctly. Also, periodically spray it into door locks and the ignition switch to keep them from wearing out or sticking.

@TheSimoc Год назад

While better than nothing for hinges, WD-40 is actually notoriously bad lubricant in long term. It initially lubricates indeed, but it soon dries up into rather non-lubricating gunk. It is not that much an issue in hinges and other parts that are not anyhow prone to sticking, but in lock cylinders for example, where small parts should be able to move by relatively weak spring forces, or in spring-loaded electrical contacts, WD-40 usually causes more problems than it solves. Its intended usage is to repel moisture and initially lubricate to unstick stuck parts, where it works well with its good penetrating properties. It also makes good corrosion protection, and is alright in installations not moving in normal operation, such as bolts and nuts, and screw or crimp electrical joints. But in mechanisms moving in normal operation, you need a better lubricant. Multi-purpose oils, silicon oils, greases, and purpose-specific lubricants are the proper choices, depending on purpose.

The aerospace industry jumped on the stuff and it proved its worth over time. When I was an Assistant Manager at a tool and implement store I always asked the new hires ( youngsters ) if the knew what WD-40 stood for. Ten percent got it right. They got the gold stars.

I was watching one of your videos yesterday and saw you tapping on the dash to get the heater fan to start working for a little while longer. Anyways, today when I started my car, the dash lights were off and wouldn't come on. So, I drove to work and got the job done and on my way home it was eerie driving with no gauges. For some reason I remembered you smacking the dash, and I thought what the hell, it's worth a try. I lightly tapped at first and they flickered. I tapped again and the right side came on. Then started tapping the left side and it came on, but then the right side went out again. I continued tapping until they were back on again. Anyways, thanks for the idea 😊

I've always been a pb blaster man myself. Some great ideas in this video.

@johnchandler1687 3 года назад

PB Blaster is the best to loosen stuck or rusted stuff, but it's not a good long term lubricant. WD-40 isn't either. Gunsmith call WD-40 the money maker because it attracts dust and powder residue and leaves them in need of a professional cleaning.

@Avaddon911 3 года назад

@@johnchandler1687 Yes long term lube is obviously not a liquid but something thicker like grease. Hence the term "penetrating oil" it's to get rusted parts unstuck, not to lubricate anything.

I had a Troybilt riding lawnmower that would get so it steered hard and squeaked when you turned the steering wheel. It didn't have grease fittings, so I sprayed it with WD 40 and it cured both problems. Years ago i had a house that had the old wooden sash windows. They opened real hard until I sprayed them with WD 40. Great stuff!

Never Ever spray petroleum based products like WD-40 on rubber, use a silicon spray instead. For electrical or electronic connectors spray any electronic contact cleaner first wait until it dries then apply silicon paste or any dielectric grease of your choice to keep the connector clean, rust free and water proof. Just my 2 cents!

@humanandroid8099 4 года назад

Yep, that's the way to go. Stay away from rubber and plastic.

@bigm383 4 года назад

I recently degreased an engine with Tyre foam and compressed air. The tyre foam conditions the plastic and rubber components and doesn't damage any electrical contacts. Makes the engine bay look good pre-sale!

@winchestermodel7044 4 года назад

WD40 is highly flammable without the straw inserted into the nozzle. As a kid I used to use a lighter and make a blow torch with it. I assume it’s because it’s more of a liquid with the straw in it as opposed to an aerosol without the straw.

@davidjames666 4 года назад

I once sprayed it into the motor of my pos phantom vacuum. Well, wouldn't you know.... The exhaust of my phantom looked like the flaming exhaust of the bat mobile. I recall the flame shooting out the back was about 4 feet long. I think Scotty better take that statement back or clarify before someone gets hurt

@Sylvan_dB 4 года назад

Probably more aerosol, but also in the old days WD-40 used propane as a propellant in the cans. That was a lot more flammable than today's mix.

WD-40 used to be highly flammable before because it used propane as the propellant, they changed it to CO2 now and so it tends to not let the oil component of the chemical catch fire, but if you aerosol it, it burns really well.

@3beltwesty 4 года назад

In the college dorm rooms kids would shoot a fireball of WD40 under ones dorm room door as a prank. OR tape up a 9x12 envelope with duct tape and fill it up with shaving cream. Then slide an open end under the door with the closed end taped to the floor. Then they would hit the envelope with a giant book to send the shaving cream around inside the room

I know you hate the air struts. Sometimes they make a squeal sound when opening/closing a door/hood. I found a drop of gear oil on the struts makes them move like new! Probably stops them from tearing up the internal seals also.

The stream won't catch fire, however if you have the wide spray (like an aerosol can) version of WD-40 it is EXTREMELY flammable...

Yes, and it made me cringe when he sprayed it onto the lighter and splattered himself in the process; it vaporizes almost instantly as it's soaking into cotton. His clothes could have become a giant wick .
