This guy is great. To the point, logical, knows his stuff, and I wanna have a beer with. Thanx for the knowledge.

Gotta love this channel this guy is so genuine and authentic. I just enjoy watching his videos in my free time even if I don’t have the car he’s working on. Great videos, great content and very knowledgeable! Thank you Astral Auto!

Great diagnostics fellars lol...looks like the messenger was shot lol😉

Brotha, you're fortunate to have a woman by your side, learning, recording and supporting you 100%! Love the vids too! I'm just confused as to how the car goes from driving one day to no compression the next. Haven’t seen that one yet.

You the man. Thanks for the Real Time

You’re videos are good and easy to follow. Will use ya more in the future. Way COOL Thanks again. Jack

❤love the video and the humor Great video for us diyers without 5000 dollar scan tool

I came across your channel and to be honest I am learning a lot and I like family working together on the same field. Keep it up with the videos. Greetings from Finland !!!!!

There is no good reason that I was able to detect you were humming the "green acres" theme so instantly :D Sounds like you have a lot of fun doing what you do, love it :)

Just came across your page. My stepson bought 2002 Nissan Sentra gxe. Been running fine. Anyway he stops at store then wont start/crank. When i hooked my scanner up got codes etc. But it wont stay running unless OBDII is plugged in. I can use any OBDII dongle even if it's a blue toothunit not connected to reader. Any ideas??

Good, job she was very good keep working together. God bless.

i dig it.. keep making vids

68 Nissan repair videos! I can dig it! I learned that coolant answer from Diagnose Dan! He had one that the sensor said engine was hot when actually it had not run that day. So computer was not sending enough fuel for it to start cold. As for the no compression, i go with Sylvia's guess. Chain tensioner failure. So Sylvia has to call & break the news to the customer? As long as valves didn't hit pistons, it won't be too expensive. Timing chain set and install. Can't wait and see!

Thanks for the helpful video! It really helped us out :)

Bro do you kno all these cars at every junk yard lol.. The radio panel are bad asf there dammn near $200 n they brake easy... Nice video.. I'm still working on mines.. May the gud Lord best it to get right

Any idea 2003 nissan factory remote start acting up starts and dies right away. When I use key no issue starts and runs. I cleaned terminals and alil corrosion positive side but still same starts and dies. Any help

good one, she just dose not give you a break LOL, cannot wait for part two.

as you mentioned here after 12 min into the video, Got the code p0180 of coolant temperature on my 2001infiniti QX4, got your explanation about Injector pulse but how can we correct it was not explain. would you explain the corrections please. thank you in advance

Silvia you asked the right questions. Thank you

That was a great video! Salutations from Fort Worth, TX

Hello good day I am getting that same problem with my Nissan Sentra b13 car engine was down for over 3 years ago what is the problem and what can I do to get it started

Did you find the cause of the no start condition??

You are smart bro. Thanx for the info. But the leaf technique 😂😂😂 then back in the engine

Thank You for that information

So I have a Nissan Altima 2005 ,2.5 4 cylinder. It will crank but no start , I’ve changed sparks coils , fuel pump , and my neighbor checked all fuses but no start. When we lifted up the seat to get to the fuel pump to check the wire going to fuel pump , when you turn the key to on his test light it would flash on then off immediately when they key turned to on . Please help

Good job

Any updates?

So i got my valve cover repaired about two weeks ago and my spark plugs and ignition coils repaired as well all new. It started perfectly fine then about 10 mins later i came home and went to leave again and it’s cranking but won’t start. Could that mean i have a bad ignition coil or spark plug? Would that cause it to lot start? What are some reasons that could be wrong since i have all new spark plugs ignition coils and a new valve cover?

Hey man I was wondering my car had a crank no start so I watched this video an decided to look at the coil packs an spark plugs the one closest the the driver side had oil in the spark plug well so my question is how would I fix that? New cover an gasket?

Just had this failure on a 2002 Altima... Last Spring, hard starts every morning and anytime the car rested for more than 4 hours, The problem went away on it's own, so owner assumed bad gas (filled up w/ tanker on the lot). Fast forward to this spring, Valve Cover replacement (leaking Tube Rings flooding the SP Tubes). Ran good for about a month, and then the Rando/Multi-Misfire code started hitting. hard starts returned, but the oner said it started if he pressed the gas, and it would only happen every few days. Then the next morning, No Start, Cranks and Cranks, tries to catch, the RPM needle would wiggle to 150-200 RPM but never actually fully turn over. Thought it was the Fuel Pump / Pressure, But Remembered the last time I was there, we heard the rapid click click click last spring of the timing chain tensioner. The Clicking supposed stopped a month or so ago, right around before the hard starts returned. Eventually because there was no tension, the chain started skipping and shifting the timing off slowly, and now it's likely far enough off, that it's not going to engage and running engine, and likely damaged valves with the timing being off. It wasnt compression more than the timing. Also, the Headgasket shows signs of a leak.

Please, that was a good lecture. My car is having the same problem I would to get it fix

Hi I'm having trouble out of my car...my battery and brake light comes on at the same time and the car cut off on me 3 times in the last couple of months now so it's been setting and now my ICV light on now...what's wrong with my car

Please help I'm deep into debt with my 2003. It started fine, then quit. I need it diagnosed. Please!!!!

I have a question.i have a Nissan Altima and it was running not no more.what happens is I bought it with a broken steering g column .the tilt is all broken the steering allows u to turn the wheels and still drive it.bht it's hella loose and it hangs down.now I was at friends house and we left to get something to eat and the car wouldn't start no more.all the lights turn on battery's good it just doesn't crank over or nothing .no noise.van someone help me please

Have a 2002 altima 2.5s, having trouble starting. Got a code p0302 code , would this prevent it from starting?

That compression gauge looks skeptical. Starts at 30psi and doesn't move at all. The release valve is probably stuck open on gauge.

What happened with the timing?

2011 Nissan Maxima: Over the course of years before I bought the car from my sister the battery would randomly leave her stranded (or so she thought) but it's odd that the car would start just fine and after a short drive of perhaps three minutes and about fifteen minutes of her shopping the battery suddenly dies when she gets back in (her job and the store were very close so it was odd that it would crank once but fail less than 30 minutes later). I buy the car and change the alternator and the electrical connector for the alternator cause the plastic was brittle and broken, I did this cause the battery would randomly be drained after the car sat for weeks or sometimes only days. Car works fine for a few weeks (not driven regularly though) and I find the battery is still draining cause it's dead one day, but I charge it up . A couple of weeks later I got in the car and it cranked just fine but then after I put it in reverse all the warning lights come on and the engine wouldn't rev up in reverse. I put it in drive and the motor will rev up and move the car, put it back in reverse and get nothing. I buy a new battery and the car is cranking and working correctly, after a trip the battery and brake light start to flutter on and off but I make it home with no issues. Now the battery and brake light keep coming on but the car is working fine, though I note that if I rev the motor up I can make the light go out after a few times reving the engine. Opinion?

I’m going to try the number three cylinder and check for comp just like you did in your video please help thanks

Love your vids lol; Yah bless you Timmy; make some Yeh buddy t-shirts bro loool

Potato Potatoe French Fries..lol

Prop open your throttle body plate TWO (throttle wide open) for the best possible reading when running compression tests Disable fuel injectors and ignition coils.

29:23 you can see that there was compression in all cilynders by looking at the air blowing out of the spark plug tunes when he cranked it. Your compression gauge is bad.

hello, I have a 03 Nissan Altima 2.5 and I only get spark to 1 and 3 cylinder and 2 and 4 dont get any spark what could it be, just wondering

Check the cat converter they are known to cause the issue. If the platinum is gone it's in the engine oil and Fry's the rings. But because its a Altima it has a recall on the 2.5 engines

Nice team!

You can a rag to soak up some of that oil but I ain’t got time for that ...splash...eeewww.ahh I’m gonna go get a rag....lol!!!!

Where's the part 2 and fixing the problem. The video stopped when you can close to diagnosing the problem and can't find a part 2.

My number 3 cylinder is not getting any spark coil been change.🤔

Would it have been worth taking off the valve cover and seeing if the chain is loose?

Working on Customer vehicle won't crank by turning the key but will start from starter when key on

Great Video. Did you end up replacing the head gasket? My car wont start and I know I have a blown head gasket but I wasn't haven't issues starting it til recently. I previously replaced pretty much all my sensors and spark plugs and a faulty coil pack. I was thinking my fuel injectors might be clogged so I got some cleaner in the fuel but since it won't start properly it wont flow through it. Can a blown head cause the no start?

I’m Curious. Did it have bent valves? Is this a engine that bends valves if the timing is off? If you need a hand let me knowIm in Wake Forest.

2006 2.5 #3 cylinder not getting spark why?😣

My 2005 Nissan Altima cranks but does not start, and I had the k sealer inside of it, but it was emptied out and also I had needed a new motor but thanks to the blue stuff used to seal in the cracks I don't need one ,but since the k sealer gasket has been emptied my car doesn't want to start up. It was fixed based upon sealing in the cracks also I had an radiator replaced inside as well ,can u please help me

Love yoir attitude man. Also i HATE hearing lip smacking on the mic but you pull it off with ease lol

Can you do a video for an 03 Nissan Altima 2.5s code p1564.

I have a 2002 and this thing is crazy....leave it alone for 2 weeks it starts, i.use it now and try to go to the store it never starts. It tries to start but thats as far as it goes. Please help!

I doesn't harm anything if i take out the sparkplugs even tho it has oil in it?

will no oil cause it to not start?

this exact same thing happened to me on my 2002nissan altima and how do i fix it?

What would cause a car to start after the 3rd or 4th time trying to turn it over and start and then sometimes it starts right up and then sometimes it takes 20 times is turning the key to start it but it runs perfect I could drive it 500 miles usually drive at least a couple hundred miles a day it has $136,000 on it so 2006 Nissan Altima 2.5 minutes

What happened to part 2??? What was the problem???

I have the same viechle. My car wont start at all.

Jumped TIME

My 2005 Altima does the same but it cranks after a certain amount of time

Timming chain skipped or broke mot allowing to make compression

Astral, obviously the problem's been fixed by now, but when I see that the compression gauge doesn't even quivering at all on any cylinder I would sure want to test the gauge on a known working cylinder on another car, or try another gauge before spending a lot more time/money looking looking into causes of absolutely NO compression on this puppy. You said customer reported this problem happened suddenly one morning after running the previous day. That doesn't sound like a compression problem. Please let me know what you found, if you don't mind. The suspense is killing me. Thanks, Ron

👏👏👏

I have to assume there was never a check done for fuel pressure based on the engine sounding like it had no compression

As soon as that engine cranked, you knew it was a loss of compression. Too bad, because the car looks pretty good.

My car is doing the same thing changed the spark plugs and coils also changed the position sensor car still wont start...help!!!

Had this happen to me and you'll know when it's going bad because when you start the engine you'll hear a plastic rattle which will go away once the car starts. You'll hear this rattle months before it actually goes but make no mistake these cars are known for weak chain tensioner and chains. shop wants $1400. plus if any valves are messed up etc on an already 16 year old car = not happening. Car only has 68,000 original miles.

My wife's is a 2012 Altima, it's the touch switch kind... It wants to start but doesn't..any advice????ty

What was the wrong with it in the end? Great video by the way. Mine is basically doing the same thing

I have a 2002 Nissan Altima. It has been leaking oil so I took it to my boyfriends dad and he found out that my screw was loose, we got that fixed. Then, he put three bottles of oil in. Next day, my car cranks but won’t start. Can someone help?

ECM GONE BAD ?

I got a customer 2003 Nissan Altima 2.5 liter I change the timing chain set new gears and oil pump chain the whole nine yards and I’m getting fire and fuel cranks but no start

Garments. It's more if you ask ?s While I work!

I have 2 of these altima in my driveway, one has been dead 2 years (after I rebuilt the engine and suspension myself) the other is slowly dying, I'm expecting it do die any day now. Everybody on the internet is scream "crank sensors". I have a small bin full of these sensors, at least 8 of them including at least 2 genuine ones. At least for the 1st one, it's not that.

@17:18 "Oh" LOL

Anyone ever tell you sound and act like Kevin Hart?

The engine is fry dude it may be overheating

Come on

set car on fire n claim insurance...sorted

hehe

For a good compression ..place car in the crusher...

No

That many Nissan repair videos!! That means I would never buy a Nissan..

Nissan is junk. Honda or Toyota for the win
