Ahhhh...The Good Old Days of watching Edd work and learning something! Cheers!!!

@epictones 6 лет назад

Yes I think that Ed should have his own show , he shows and explains the details that massages a gear heads brain, he is the best and main reason that the previous show saw so much success.

@Macavellic 6 лет назад

This is an add I can stand. Not cheasy, and informative. welcome back Edd.

@TheAy7531 6 лет назад

Its Like the BEST part of Wheeler Dealers!

@betamax5674 6 лет назад

Hope to see you in a stand-alone program doing this type of thing. You’re great at it!

@customriding 6 лет назад

Superb job, as usual. You has been very much missed Edd. Welcome back to your natural environment!

@Scrubworks 6 лет назад

This reminds me of the early days of Wheeler Dealers, when Edd actually got the chance to properly show how to perform basic repairs on a car. And this time we don't even have some cheesy royalty-free stock music in the background.

@robworrall6832 3 года назад

Nice to see Edd showing folk how it's done properly here, anyone can throw brakes back together and make them work but these are the little details that make them work properly and stay working properly longer!

@100redpillcolourblind5 6 лет назад

Ed China doing what he dose best. Simple informative, gives you the confidence to DIY . Most garages will do 40% bodge job.

@shockjockey5274 6 лет назад

This is the best kind of promotion ever, no one sticks the product in your face and the product is actually good. Also don't forget that it's a great educational video.

@JimWattsHereNow 6 лет назад

Bloody awesome Edd, you were the reason we watched the old WD. A proper professional tradesman.

@hawr0 6 лет назад

Great to have the almighty Edd back. I've learned so much from you over the years!

@Parknest 6 лет назад

Edd, that looked like something out of Wheeler Dealers. Great video and absolutely spot on with the front brake disc & pad replacement. You don't need your own show with your YT channel.

@aaronginkenz3782 6 лет назад

One of the best parts of the Wheeler Dealers show, was YOU! Thanks for your making your own channel!

@Dieferdan 6 лет назад

That's more like me ole China! This is what we want to see, even if it is sponsored. We need 'how to' videos! excellent work sir, keep it up :D

@felixd7818 6 лет назад

This is impressive. Real things that real people want or need to do on their cars. No BS, no gimmicks. Thanks

@djhatstand7312 6 лет назад

Good to see you back posting the videos up Edd, it's always a pleasure watching how you work

@marinkagreen9415 6 лет назад

Oh my goodness, it was wonderful to see you doing the thing that I liked most about the earlier Wheeler Dealers. I didn't realize how much I missed that.Thank you for the Edducation!

@JohnAlanSlavin 6 лет назад

This is the kind of stuff I love watching you present Edd, I hope you can make more videos like this.

@lynwoodbailey4481 6 лет назад

Mr. Edd China, Thank you for continuing showing us the correct way to do different jobs!!! I think you have found your niche without realizing it!!! May you truly be blessed in all your endeavors!!!

@gojeta1982 6 лет назад

Anyone else find watching Ed weirdly theraputic?

@gbowne1 6 лет назад

Always make it look so easy lol

Good to see you are back Edd. Looking forward to more videos. Cant wait.

@hollensted 6 лет назад

Wow! What an eyeopener, i have been doing so many things wrong for 20 years. Just ordered the same grease so i can avoid the problems i have experienced so many times. Awesome job Edd!

@RADOMIRATA 6 лет назад

This is the way to go Edd, do what you know best and you will have sucess. There are millions of us that want to do our own work on our cars, bikes, tractors... And that's how you help us.

@rickydee9761 6 лет назад

I'm sure a lot of people looking have done brake pads before but I viewed it anyway to watch the tall man at work! Good to se you bud!

@dalerider666 6 лет назад

Good to see you back in action Edd, keep the videos coming! 😁👍👍👍

@cfcasazza 6 лет назад

That's what I call a proper brake job. Thanks Ed

@sohailjaned 3 года назад

Thank you Edd China for showing all the mechanics out there how to do a proper brake job 👍🏼

@westie430 6 лет назад

Ahh. So nice to hear him doing his thing again. I so enjoy how he explains things & I've missed it. He certainly seems right at home!!

@DaleC. 6 лет назад

Mr China. You are like the beloved primary school teacher that you never forget and want to invite to your wedding. After studying you for years upon years on WD, you are solely responsible for inspiring me to have the confidence to attack the many mechanical repairs of my family and friends. Successfully. Thank you teacher.

@aserta 6 лет назад

Very comprehensive, easy to follow, exactly as a training video should be.

@friedchicken1 6 лет назад

can I pet you, please? Do you purr?

@junamoor 6 лет назад

Another great video from the topman himself! Thanks Edd keep up the good work!

@mrflamewars 6 лет назад

Love it! Totally hope Edducated turns out to be a very long running series indeed.

@NickElliottuk 6 лет назад

This is brilliant. So good to see Edd actually using spanners again, and I learnt loads (despite the fact I've been doing my own brakes for years). More of this please!

@thomasjudson4799 6 лет назад

Very interesting video! The Edducated series will be much loved if it's carried on, would love to see more.

@bhamgreeneyes 6 лет назад

It's a pleasure to see you teaching and turning wrenches again. Glad you're back!

@barrycuda1427 6 лет назад

Nice to see you back Edd. I have to do my brakes soon so I was pleased to see this video. I find myself in a situation where I have to do my own repair work when I am able. More videos like this or an entire show about auto maintenance/repair would be so welcome by me and I'm sure many, many others. The cars I had when I was young are so much different than they are now, I could use the help learning new methods. Well done.

@yoyo11177 6 лет назад

I never thought I would be so engaged with watching the brake caliper hanger of a Ford Fiesta

@donjohnson3701 4 года назад

I was watching Jay Leno’s garage and found Edd......then the lights went on...how about two real guys getting together...Jay and Edd. Jay with the classic cars and Edd with the mechanicals. I can’t help it but I think that the pair would be fantastic.

@user-st6en6sh8q 6 лет назад

I guarantee nobody is as diligent as Ed. Well done for setting the standard

@whitestar0284 6 лет назад

The orange gloves are back at long last and thanks to u edd I do my own anyway was nice to see the master back in the shop

@nicolashoyt5341 6 лет назад

Glad to see someone putting out real quality educational videos for car repairs. So many guys out there are making these click bait style videos and offering little to no value in the content. Props for showing everything from shaking the wheel to check suspension and bearings to cleaning the pad slides.

@Pilkboi 6 лет назад

This is what Wheeler Dealers should of been, great video

@danpriestman8164 6 лет назад

Edd China is the show, any show, he should be primetime everywhere. He has influenced me tremendously, and I would love to have him for a day! Have so many questions about the ls400 I bought, after seeing him work one... But having done brakes a hundred times, I've learned something every time I watch him do them! So happy that he still has a forum, but it will never be high enough for me! Love you Edd, haven't watched wheelers since you left.

@nissanman5738 6 лет назад

Great to see you back edd.please start your own show in this country. I'm sure all your fans will back you up.

@dartsadvice 6 лет назад

This is a brilliant video, exactly what most people watched Wheeler Dealers for, the mechanical expertise. However, this is better than any Wheeler Dealer episode because of the clear documentary style, this sort of thing is needed as a television series, we all know that most people love cars, and that most men like to understand the mechanicals of cars. A series like this could be the biggest thing on television.

@djhaloeight 6 лет назад

This is great! Glad to see you wrenching again Edd!

@zorst99 6 лет назад

I like getting more of a complete tutorial like this than a superficial look at the repair work as when you were working with Mike.

@2CabrasLocas 6 лет назад

AWESOME TO SEE YOU BACK AT IT! Great instructional video, and GREAT to see you using a realistic garage. Not a spotless 10 million dollar studio garage like so many think viewers want to see.

@Mio-Vita 6 лет назад

The man missed by so many , so glad to see your face , and see them orange gloves wonderful

@BenHartshorne0991 6 лет назад

Awesome vid Edd. Just what we all wanted to see. RU-vid is the best platform as we can get comments across for you to read, and make content people love to see. Keep it up

@mistermisanthrope6398 6 лет назад

You're so good at how-to. That's what kind of show I enjoy watching. Not the before, and after crap with the characters being the main focus that Velocity pushes.

@rimmersbryggeri 6 лет назад

Great stuff EDD. Even the basic stuff needs to be shown properly and this was very well done. I'm going to school to be a mechanic now and you really do teach well, I'm ahead of the class by alot from watching you for years. Thanks.

@Mrmudbone_gaming 6 лет назад

This reminds me of the early days of WD! The whole garage is quite and all you hear is Edd working on the vehicle. Good old days!

@theshadowman1398 6 лет назад

Edd is back in exactly the way I remember him.

@caliautomagazine4386 6 лет назад

This is why I watched Wheelers in the first place. Teach me something! Way to go Ed!

@rubiconwhiskey7135 6 лет назад

Love to see you back in the shop Edd. This is the technical stuff we all missed on the later episodes of Wheeler Dealers. Still sad that they ruined a great show.

@donaldhollums3278 6 лет назад

I felt like I was watching an original episode of "Wheeler Dealers" again. Great detail of explanation given on the job being performed. Hurry up with the next film!

@gazjonze 6 лет назад

Edd is extremely competent and thorough, anyone who has worked for a main stealer will tell you they don't go anywhere near the amount of time, care or expertise exhibited by Edd. Virtually all nuts and bolts get buzzed, nothing gets greased. Techies are instructed to work in this manner by the service manager, who in turn is told by the area manager to do it this way. The franchises make the mechanics have their torque wrenches calibrated so that they have a nice little certificate as a way of a disclaimer in case a buzzed bolt shears and the worst happens. It's all time, and in the world of main dealer garages, time is money. The dealer I worked for charged £85 + vat for labour, and paid the mechanics (who had to buy their own tools at a cost of tens of thousands of pounds) £8.50 per hour. Where possible, do not use main dealers, use a reputable independent garage. You get better service and pay half the labour price.

@carlosedwardos 6 лет назад

I worked as a master technician for several main dealers, and they knew I was good by reputation, and I always negotiated a pay rate of 1/3 the shop labor rate per FLAG HOUR, so in your example that pay rate would be £28.33/hour - and because it is per flag hour, I could easily make £50/hour by beating the book specified time for each job.

@gazjonze 6 лет назад

burrito rustler I would like to know which dealer that was, and also when it was, as most main sealers would tell you where to go if you tried to get more money out of them, as there's no shortage of technicians... I'm going to hazard a guess and say you were a Vauxhall techie?

@carlosedwardos 6 лет назад

this was in the states, and it is ANY dealership I work for - I am good at what I do, and if your dealership wants me, the price is 1/3 of shop labor rate per flag hour, and it's NOT negotiable.

@TakuroSpirit77 6 лет назад

When it comes to brakes an other low skill jobs they have to do a quick and dirty job because they have to remain competitive with the small shops using inferior parts, tools, and training. Everyone wants to be a cheap ass these days and wants to get what they assume is the best deal for the money, when in reality they don't care what kind of job gets done to their car, so long as their wallet isn't much lighter than it was going in.

@bikecommuter24 6 лет назад

When I lived near Ipswich I used to go to a little shop in a town I think it was Felixstowe? the older gentleman was a Brilliant Mechanic and he never over charged me even if I was a young yank at the time, he always did my MOT and told me upfront if I needed to fix something before it went bad. I can do a lot of the mechanical things myself but I did not have access to a working space I had a one room flat even my Mini would not fit in there.

@mrobles661 6 лет назад

The most thorough brake job I have ever seen. Been wrenching for over 10+ years. Actually learned something! Good work!

@williambowman 6 лет назад

Edd is the real Wheelers Dealers

@barrywaddington3009 6 лет назад

Ed at his best. Your going into the detail that was missing from WD. We all tuned in just for you anyway and now you haven't got a TV studio restricting your airtime. Keep it up mate. Nice to see you on Project Binky recently too.

@joshuahussey7623 6 лет назад

I'd love to see more DIY videos from you Edd! This was enjoyable for me to watch. Heck when I was watching Wheeler Dealers I only watched the parts where you were working on the cars. Keep up the great work sir!

@georgerudawsky1083 6 лет назад

I hope you can get support to continue producing videos like this! Learning how to service mechanical systems properly is always a good thing.

@DIYChannelMusic 6 лет назад

This video is the reason because I have watched each wheeler dealers episode 4 or 5 times, just to learn. Please, more Edducateds.

@pksearch1980 6 лет назад

Great to see you back Edd!! very helpful video, just the way everyone will expect thank you for your time;))))))

@3647Edd Год назад

So all these years I've been using copper slip when I shouldn't have been on the backs of the pads and not lubing where I should have done!!! Lesson learnt!!! Thanks fella.

@pauljohnson4590 6 лет назад

Excellent. Like putting comfy shoes back on. I hope lots more come. I don't mind the branding - I'd happily buy the brands I see Edd use. Thanks

@dwarfagp 6 лет назад

@johnb332 6 лет назад

Edd, great show. I learn a lot watching you work on your cars.

@michaelpage7691 3 года назад

This is what was being missed in the American series. At last I learnt something. Thanks Ed. 👍🏻😁🇦🇺

@DjMarik78 6 лет назад

It is great to see you performing your magic again, Discovery lost dearly when they lost you, i cannot possibly immagine what are thinking of by not giving you yout own show, people love you, not wheeler dealers, not Mike, not some workshop here in Europe of there in the US, people love Edd China, as i do, they love the way you get the job done. I hope i will get to see loads of more stuff like this from you. All the best.

@rockingarchangel 6 лет назад

Seriously refreshing to have repairs explained thoughly and "next lvl" details

@thepurpleufo 6 лет назад

@carhead9397 6 лет назад

@gregorygreen2275 6 лет назад

@jsof2 6 лет назад

This is THE most complete and clear tutorial on brake servicing I've ever seen - well done Edd!

@me282uk 6 лет назад

Great to see you back doing this sort of stuff. A bit of music in places to help fill out the background and it would be perfect.

@OutandAboutwithCraig 6 лет назад

It’s fantastic to see the old Edd we know and love back filming in the workshop. This is what we have missed most.

@johnnystephens6329 6 лет назад

Hello Ed I have watched the new Wheeler Dealer and I must say it just isn't the same without you. You are a very knowledgeable mechanic who can even teach another mechanic a thing or to like me. Keep up the good work

@janfswedane 6 лет назад

Just awesome to see The Tall Man again Ed China is very informative and it's a delight to follow his repairs.I do not understand why nobody yet has considered a show with Ed and Aaron Kaufmann Ed being the true Briton and Aaron the WildTexan, just imagine what their combined talentcould create.....

@wyattoneable 6 лет назад

Good to see you post Edd. Thanks for the information and your tips along the way.

@wildone270 6 лет назад

That is the best video on brake jobs that I have ever seen I love how Edd takes his time explains everything.

@contactrkb 6 лет назад

Edd truly is amazing, he removes wheel nuts with just his fingers!

@MrKeys57 6 лет назад

Of course! he has reached the state beyond any tools! :D

@contactrkb 6 лет назад

Like Neo in the final scenes of "The Matrix"

@apl175 6 лет назад

I appreciate how they used an ordinary road car to show this. The care with the cleaning, degreasing, and inspection of the brake components shows that it doesn't matter what kind or the cost of the car that is being worked on.

@kamuiius 6 лет назад

Real awesome that you are doing some videos like this Edd. Your tear-downs and servicing of vehicles were what made me enjoy the original Wheeler Dealers in the first place. I hope you can do a lot more of these. So informational and helpful. Thank you.

@shimonbiton2163 6 лет назад

I absolutley love this idea... educational guide more detailed than in wheeler dealers. PLEASE KEEP THIS IS UP..CANT WAIT FOR MORE EPISODES!!

@jamesm6413 6 лет назад

So glad to see Edd is still giving helpful hints. WD sucks without him. I gave it a chance and just can't find myself getting into it. So glad the old episodes are on Amazon and Google.

@johnj.baranski6553 6 лет назад

First 2Flight I said I would give it one season. I'm trying but it's not the same.

@jeffpayne4697 6 лет назад

First 2Flight I just don't see much difference between the old WD and the new episodes besides Edd isn't there. Definitely didn't like the first episode of them doing the Ford Escort Cosworth. The adding the theoretical third wing was just ugly

@jasonhawkins4528 6 лет назад

yes edd was right new wheeler dealers has cut loads out, and too many breaks, after edd left rubbish now, workshop time cut to shreds

@jamesbowers3540 6 лет назад

I have tried to watch it . I don't think I'll watch the show anymore

@donaldhollums3278 6 лет назад

First 2Flight I've watched the new W/D episodes with the Ant-man and they're okay, but I whole heartedly agree with you. The China episodes are still better.

@MePeterNicholls 3 года назад

Edd, I could watch you do car stiff all day long. You explain things so well, and I always learn new things

@DanVR001 6 лет назад

I missed you. Welcome back to the screen, Mr. China

@stefanmargraf7878 6 лет назад

Edd, finally you understood! That sort of things is of interest to many people and will be relevant for years. More things like that, please. And not necessarily combined with advertising.

@huntersousa1255 6 лет назад

This should be on tv

@carlolucarini5786 6 лет назад

Spero che EDD possa tornare con un programma tutto suo sulle reti televisive Italiane per la gioia di noi Fan. Sei Grande EDD.

it's a joy to have you back, Edd.

@gmmooseblaster 6 лет назад

Excellent vid. As usual done in a clear and concise way. Please carry on with these - it's like the best bits of the good old Wheeler Dealers. Keep 'em coming my old China!

@benjamineckerson5116 6 лет назад

Please make more of these. Educated people giving informative tips with detailed information for free like in this video is why network tv is rapidly dying.
