How to PERFECTLY Maintain your First Car 

ok

Hi

Where have you been Chris

I Like You Videos! :D

Good deed Brother.

Does the guy who controls the official RU-vid account drive an Escape 😭

whadda hell

RU-vid employee wants their car maintained like Chris's are.

True

What da hell is RU-vid doing on RU-vid

Fr. Never offer a Ford to someone you love.

​@@antonio-andresfortezastefanova or just don't give them a car with a turbo as their first car, especially with no mechanical experience. Like a second gen Escape would be much more simple, and will definitely last them 300k miles when cared for

@@mravocadoman2904 I spent $1200 on my first car, it was a 2003 Mazdaspeed Protege, had a turbo and was a 5 speed, worst and best decision I ever made and wouldn't do it differently other than keeping the car because I could've fixed it up and it'd be a race car right now. Im 21 now, I got that car when I was 16, I've had 4 cars since so ig for long term ownership Im not the best for advice but most of my cars have had 190k+ miles except the protege which was at like 136-7k, just had boost issues and would have electrical surges; after replacing the clutch and transmission that I blew doing a burnout at school, lighting everything up bright as shit and popping headlights/taillights when hitting boost it was a shit show. I got an Impala now making 305hp and its amazing ngl, thing smokes most cars Ive pulled on.

​@@mravocadoman2904For a first car NA is definitely the way to go 😁

JESUS CHRIST died for you in a cross for our sins. 3 days after his death he resurrected and is The LIVING GOD. Repent from your sins and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in a prayer and also ask for the HOLY SPIRIT to come into you in that same prayer as well. You could come to Jesus Christ as you are, but once you accept Him, you have to become new, change, and be born again, and also turn away from your wicked ways. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. God Bless You.

Thanks a lot!

Same here! Time flew and I felt like I was truly learning something useful!

And the seller probably cleared the error codes before selling the car, or the auction before them cleared the codes, since Chris didn't see a turbo error code until after he owned the car a bit. So that indicates the problem was already present but the code was cleared. (It was already broken so the code should have already been present)

Yeah but he said he got it for a good price and they supplied a check list of the cars defects so yeah

I agree with this, but cant help to feel like people like this aren't really and fairly appreciated... it's always a thank you and forget you a week later. That's why I feel its only fair to give donators write offs. In poor countries a donation like this would have you be a family friend for life, but internet and modern money makes ppl feel this stuff is more normal and becomes undervalued.

It was a solid vehicle with just regular maintenance needs aside from the turbo replacement. $15,000 is a major overstatement, but I don't think that matters. What matters is that the family got a fantastic, reliable car when they needed it most.

​@HazewinDog he's a noob just basic maintenance. This POS escape transmission won't last long so a pointless venture

​​@@FATmenDRIVEtrucks You calling ChrisFix a noob?

@@snooder557 no the original comment said he did $15k in maintenance

Wow! Super cool from your side !

Chris has always helped small and poor youtubers

​@@your-mom_was_hereyeah a P1 is definitely for a poor person 💀💀💀

@@Ahsaniscool987only peasants drive a P1, I drive a P50

You’re welcome

Thank you for your service! Thanks a lot!

How I use to love riding in a goat!

u smell like kaka

Crisfix is definition of elbow grease

The first 6 minutes are ads. C’mon 😂

Would’ve been better if he would’ve hired Xzibit to come through ask her what she likes and then completely make the car unpractical with hilarious add-ons. But I appreciate the philanthropy nonetheless.

Because hardwork always pays off

Salute

thanks for your service! I wish our awful government took better care of you. over 100 billion dollars to Ukraine and nothing for Veterans. It angers me so much

How many deaths worldwide is the US military responsible for? Its one thing to defend a country, its another to be a mercenary.

Way to go Chris! 😁Found this... now binge watching your excellent vids!

Wtf

That's exactly what this video proved. When you work on your craft and perfect it you put yourself in a position and to give. I recommend watching Dave Ramsey here on RU-vid. He shows that you can be a regular person working a regular job and afford to give to people in need. No one has to be rich to give to charity 🎉

Thanks a lot!

Man I didn't realise it was a hour long video.....time went by so quickly....such an amazing video from start to endd !!💚

Lol I didn't realize it was an hour long until I read your comment 😂

Same

Same here

Thanks a lot!

@@chrisfixno problem! I’ll always be a fan!

@@chrisfix how are you

Thanks!

Military??

@@chrisandrews2980thought that was just socials?

I was just gunna say bootcamp? 😭

Lol guess I'm not the only one thinking military

Me too

Thanks a lot! It was 11hrs of video condensed down into just under an hour so I try really hard to streamline things so I don’t waste your time or make it boring.

Holy. I didn't even realize this video was almost an hour until I saw this comment. I was so immersed I thought it was a 24 minute video

@@chrisfix even if the video was longer, people will watch it just to hear that soothing voice of yours tell them how to do amazing things on their own! You're the G.O.A.T of automotive maintenance videos and I know I speak volumes for the community when I say this, but PLEASE DO NOT GO ANYWHERE We all love your content and this video just reinforces that fact.

@chrisfix Thanks a lot for videos like this. The amount of hard work and dedication you put into fixing theses cars, can only be matched by your passion. Keep up the good work bro.

@@christianmedina7670 Likewise. I only realised at the end. I was even pausing to follow the checklist and see what we have done and what we're going to do next...

Hes a blessing to us most men wouldn't admit that but you did thank you for this comment ❤️💯

i thought - what happens to the S on this car!

"would you like AMMM??? or FMMMM??"

PARK REVERSE NEUTRAL DRIVE AND LOW!!!!

London Tipton would be proud

I thought it was back in the early 2000's on sister sister where they were learning to drive and she called it a prindle. At least that was the first time I ever heard and I still call it that lol

Welcome aboard and I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks a lot!

No way its actually TheStraightPipes!

@@My.nicka.Yes and they want clout cuz CrisFix has 10 Million subscribers 😂

⁠​⁠@@My.nicka. they collaborated a few years ago

Fun fact, he was driving on I-75

​@@aliwaheed2501yes, it is better to do flush, but if you don't have a machine, this is better than nothing

@@aliwaheed2501bruh

what did he do wrong?@@aliwaheed2501

I must say that Ford seems really poorly designed from a maintenance perspective. Almost seems like it was intentionally designed to be difficult to work on 🤨. Like that coolant fill cap could easily have been put in the other corner instead of under the plastic cowling.

You should know these escape blow transmissions like nothing are huge lemon

Thanks for the ongoing support and thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for all the support!

so did you donate then

@@clipsforfriends3513bro what?

@@clipsforfriends3513they sold them. There was no obligation to donate them.

You should take your car to brand specific specialists rather than random garages.

Thanks a lot! Go to sleep lol

@@chrisfix i bet he got slapped by his teacher lol

@@chrisfix I am currently crying so hard right now. This is seriously the most beautiful, well put together story ever. I can’t believe how magical it was 1:12. That part truly made me shed a tear. And especially at 6:34 that part was just so truly heart touching words can not describe the series of emotions I felt. I absolutely loved the climax it had insanely excellent detail. Oh and we can’t forget the conclusion. The conclusion was the greatest and saddest conclusion I have ever seen better than any of the books I have read. Thank you so much for creating this absolute masterpiece. This is essentially the most important masterpiece of film history. It is a tragedy that this, it can’t be called a film, but a transcendent emotional experience, will be inaccessible for most. It beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to its basics; suffering, pleasure, faith, despair. It connects with the characters within the viewers, individuals suppressed within our own subconscious. It stays vibrant, fresh, and revolutionises the art of storytelling and filmmaking while making a damn of statement on what it means to be human. Entertaining, gripping, and simply exhilarating. This might be the most impactful piece of art I’ve come across in my life, and I’m definitely coming back to it in the near future to study it more deeply. this is an absolute masterpiece , I was brought to tears listening to this and seeing the bacon go whirly swirly in a circle countless times. it absolutely moved my soul , and i don't think I can ever be the same. this bacon has changed my entire mental state , I am now at peace with who I am and what I will be doing later in my life. i have forgiven all my enemies and now I am a man of a pacifist life. i will move on , gotta move on , as the song says. the bacon is so inspirational , it shares it vast wisdom with all of us , and we are all so lucky that it would bestow it's great words with us. we are all children on bacon. hail bacon. hail bacon. The spinning bacon, rotating in one direction with this music... This made me tear up. How could such a bacon do such a thing? Im struck by awe by this masterpiece. Especially when the bacon spins, showing its lightly salt covered tan skin. I can hear the crunch just from here, and so as the beautiful sound of the bacon scraping the dark, smooth velvet floor. The flavor, music and everything can be heard, tasted, seen and felt from a screen. You can really hear the breaths between the music artist, empathising her love for this rotating bacon. Truly what I call modern art. This was the most legendary performance by any piece of bacon I have ever watched. The acting was top tier and very life changing. This is one of the greatest work from a piece of bacon I have ever seen especially on 57:42.I am currently crying so hard right now.

The graphics, the animation, the music, so much thought was put into it. This has remined me that you can do anything you put your mind to. Not even mentioning the memories, this makes me feel like an infant again, just laying my eyes on this beautiful masterpiece gives me all the good feelings in life. I also understand what happiness is again from this. Not even to mention the most incredible part that is 2:10. Bacon spinning has changed my life for the better.

@@chrisfix you are the G.O.A.T

what do they say?

man i remember when chris had less than 100k subs lol

Never ever in my entire life i've seen someone hate on Chris

Who hates Chris? 🤬

People say he makes car repair seem easy when it’s not but that’s what I like most because it actually makes it seem possible for the average person.

I doubt he will see this, but something I never see any mechanic do that at least I believe would be beneficial, is push the old bad fluids out like the old oil, transmission fluid, etc. A perfect example of why you'd wanna do this is right in this video when he checks the transmission fill level, a bunch of old black gunky liquid comes out, which otherwise would've been left in there if he hadn't checked the fill level, and even after doing so there is still likely a lot of the old fluid in there. Now I'm not saying to, for example, to do a double oil change just to clear out the old liquid, but what I do is let the oil drain all the way, then add in a bit of new oil with the drain still open so the new oil can somewhat wash out the rest of the old stuff. Just curious on others thoughts on this

You can do a complete transmission flush but it involves removing the pan or doing several transmission oil changes. I think for an introductory prep of a car for someone this is perfectly adequate.

In automatic transmissions, you should not do a complete change until u do it with machine esp in a high mileage car as the small ports for fluid movement might get blocked dye to debris The better way is to do a change which dilutes older dirty fluid while not doing a very drastic change altogether The new fluid will still do job much Better For a complete flush, u can change fluids 3 to 4 times and still some old dirty fluid will remain​@@pcmasterracetechgod5660

Thanks!

Thanks a lot Billy!

The video where Chris cleans the inside of a car properly to look like new. I kept hearing “agitate that dirt” with a small brush so it all comes up. and I use that method for cleaning even basic things like dirty older shoes. and it works beautifully makes cleaning dirty things 10x easier Chris is the best at this!.
