At some point, the parking brakes were worn or severely rusted, this was causing some grinding noises. The parking brake hardware was removed by another mechanic in order stop the noise. Howere, after deleting the brakes, there was still a noise caused by used or worn out wheel bearings. We are going to tear down the rear hubs and backing plates to replace the whole assemblies on a Kia Sorento.

This is my car. The e-brakes were sacrificed earlier this year in NJ when the new rear calipers were put on. At that point, we knew we were escaping NJ and would look at either getting rid of the car or fixing it once we got down here. With Ray's help and advice, I decided to go ahead on repairs (there's more work to go on it and those parts are being walked over from Korea, apparently). It's all good, because I don't need the car right away, and I know Ray is going to do an awesome job with it. And since he didn't tell us... there's about 153k miles on it. And I experienced the worst sphincter pucker ever when he said "This is going well".

Ray, you are 100% correct about showing someone the way to do something the right way. That is how people learn. Not by trial and error. This was my lesson to a flight instructor. He had me learning crosswind landings. One after another I did not get it. He said keep doing it, you will. Then I said "you do one. I want to see how you do it" I watched and I got it the 1st time after that. You can not let someone keep struggling to get it right when one demonstration gets it done.

At the last place I worked at before I retired, there were more than a few maintenance people who regarded any advice as "band camp stories". Arguing with someone about how to work on a device that can kill you is as foolhardy as arguing with a flight instructor, but I encountered it many times in my 43 years.

The flight instructor gave you a valuable lesson. You learned how not to do crosswind landings before you learned how to do them by that instructor. Learning by failure first leads to more successful proper learning.

I look at it like this. Yes Troy should learn on his own BUT it's like the old adage Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day TEACH a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Troy now knows how to remove a broken stud the proper way. When I was learning how to lay brick we had jobs where you had to lay brick with a level (building a brick lead, very difficult for a beginner.) So I got some extra brick and some mortar from a job site we were working on, took them home and practiced laying with e level. To this day I can still lay a perfectly plumb and level lead. So work ethic plays a huge role in learning.

The "showing" teaching technique is far more efficient for the initial learning experience than telling someone how to do something and letting them stumble through themselves. Often, there are multiple paths to the same outcome, the choice of which to use being dependent upon a multitude of variables. I the case of the bolt, the first-choice options didn't work, necessitating further evaluation. Learning to navigate those choices are also part of the learning process, so him observing you going through them served him much better than the trial and error process he'd have had to go through without your help. That's why we have apprentices in the first place. Otherwise, they'd be just grunt helpers.

I totally agree with Ray and give him credit where due. When it comes to total hands-on physical work, being shown how to do something is 90% of it. Troy now knows there are several different options he can apply when it comes to running into repair situations outside of the norm. I've seen lots of comments from viewers, thanking Ray for showing / educating them on how to do certain repairs. It would be funny if Ray said to the viewers, "I'm going to edit out the repair part because I want you to figure it out for yourself.

Parking brake deletes aren’t uncommon up here in Wisconsin. My car’s been without them for about a decade now.

Troy, now knows how to escalate from hammer, to air hammer, to drill, and then back to air hammer! 😠 Everything, with sufficient mass, is a hammer. Clouds do not make good hammers. Every lug nut I ever taken off was at least 150 foot-pounds tight. One was so tight I was holding onto the back fender while I jumped up and down on the lug wrench. The single mom I was changing the flat for was astonished. I told her sometimes they don't like to come off, but that I like the challenge. I put her two kids to work helping me, and then complemented them for changing the flat. They went from crying because the flat prevented them from going to the beach, to proud they helped their mom! 🤗

@johnnodge4327 10 ай бұрын

In the UK, that definitely wouldn't pass the compulsory annual inspection (MOT). If a traffic cop was to pull the driver over and found the brakes disabled (they do check for stuff like that here) they could have a prohibition order placed on the vehicle, meaning it couldn't be driven again until it was repaired and inspected at an MOT garage. All vehicles across the EU including Britain must have 2 independent ways to slow the vehicle, which is why all cars have 2 different types of brake operating systems.

Those bearings are a whole lot easier than my 2010 Subaru. While they're not press-in, the rust had frozen the bearings in place to the point that I had to remove the entire control assembly and use a press to free it. I don't know (probably not) if anti-seize was used at the factory, but it definitely got a healthy dose during reassembly.

We both know they didn't use any.😂I did sway bar links on my RAV4 and definitely not. Involved removing the boot, penatrant,vice grips and a torch. The back of it was nearly impossible to get a bite with the vice grips yet the part you use a Allen wrench rounded off like butter.

Broke a vice getting one out, and then went and grabbed the arc welder to shrink the outer race, and the grinder to cut the inner race. MB B class. Was glad to see that one go to the sales floor, nice car, but expensive to keep in good order.

A whole lot of impact gun will get them out, but will take a while. There is also a special tool you can bolt to the bearing assembly that makes it easy to hammer the bearing off and out of the rest of the assembly. Works really well for salt belt cars.

Give me visual schooling every time!! I have gained some of my best know-how by watching people do things (whether they did it right or wrong). My dad always told me, "Learn from other people's mistakes when you can, and not your own mistakes".

The Sorentos are notorious for caliper failures, specifically seizing.

I think it's a shame that the person that deleted the parking break allowed them to drive on the bearings like that. They should've noticed. You did a wonderful job.

When i first started in engineering, the only way i found to learn is by watching someone and constantly asking questions. And if it's your shop and your teaching someone, you'll expect them to be as professional about their approach as you are.

I live how Ray's tone changed the moment he realized the entire parking brake assembly was gone. I'd be a bit pissed myself, for a bunch of reasons.

I've had many apprentices over the years. Everyone is different. They all learn their own ways. As tradesmen we recognise this and teach accordingly. We'll done Ray on showing the young fella how to do it.

You doing " show and tell " with Troy is I think the fastest way up the learning curve . When I started apprenticing back in 1980 I learned the tricks from the senior mechanics showing me how it was done . Decades later I had a good idea how to properly coach the younger guys .

I can't believe that bearing came out so easily with all that rust. When they look like that, you usually have to start swinging hammers.

Ray, you are the best. Not only are you teachong Troy about being a good mechanic. You are also teaching him about good Australian movies and actors (Mad Max was 1979, Mad Max 2, also known as the Road Warrior was 1981, Beyond Thunderdome with Tina Turner was 1985)
