Can you make a video showing people how to change the oil? So MANY people assume since the cars running they don't need to do anything to it, if you educate more on it, people may start doing it more often. I'm sure you have a video that shows it, but people don't all have the same car, maybe showing a few different cars would help those that have no idea where to start 🙂 love ya Scotty!

I want to point out something else that helps maintain the car A/C and costs nothing. And that is, always run the A/C on your car, at least two minutes, once a week, 52 weeks a year! The proof is that in my 2002 Camry owners manual, they say the exact same thing, (and recommend running A/C for at least 30 seconds). Even in winter you should run the A/C (I do it while warming up since the car's cold anyway). Doing this circulates the refrigerant oil to keep the seals wet and lubricated. If you don't do this the internal seals will dry out, and then your A/C is going to conk out and need fixing, sooner not later.

Hey Scotty. You said the same thing that my NEW mechanic said. Spark plugs are the first thing to look at. Well that didn't happen at the Toyota dealer here in Lufkin, Tx. They told me I had an injector out and wanted $1600 for all six or 800 for the 1. I took it to another mechanic to get the injectors done cheaper, he replaced the spark plugs and all is well for over a year now. You can't even trust the Dealerships anymore! What a world we live in. Thanks for the Great videos!!! I mean you would think that a Toyota dealership would be able to find even a complicated problem. Not really. They couldn't even find a bad spark plug. And I had to wait almost a year to get it to the second mechanic because I had to save up enough money. So The Toyota dealership not only screwed up the diagnosis, they made me unable to drive my 4 runner for almost a year while I saved up money for something I did not need. Times like that make me wish I had become a lawyer :) That would have been a fun case.

@wendylove8911 9 ай бұрын

I hope you took the bad spark plugs and the report from your mechanic to the dealership that you first went to to get your your diagnostic fee returned to you. and if they don't go on Google and rip them a new one, dealerships depend on Google reviews and if you give them a real bad one and everybody reads it the dealership will probably contact you begging you to take your money back

Oil is the life blood of every engine and changing often can help it last over 300,000 miles, I have had 2 vehicles that have lasted over 310,000 miles and changing your oil every 3,000 miles is very important. The cars I had said in the manuals change oil every 5,000 miles, but the oil was way too dirty and smelled very used. So I changed mine every 3,00 miles and the oil looked good but I knew it was breaking down and needed changing. Also a good oil Filter is a must every 3,000 miles.

Great video - Fantastic advice. -What a difference between the US and the UK. Our annual MOT (safety test) would not allow any car to go through with faulty ABS and we would have to have it repaired. I'm the same as you as i spent years and years of owning cars and motorbikes without ABS so it really does not bother me. But Cadence braking is something of a mystery to 'youngsters' as they rely on ABS which does not always stop you when you want the car to stop. In the snow you find a lot of cars in ditches because ABS does not stop you as well as cadence braking while going down hill etc - So yes i agree with your comment about ABS and that it does not really matter. But fewer and fewer people have experience of cars without ABS or traction control and even motorcycles have to have ABS fitted and have done for quite a few years or they cant be sold in the UK and Europe. ...

Scotty you’ve always been my go to guy when it comes to car repairs. My son’s RAV4 has oil seeps (not leaks yet) as you’ve found in this video. I just ordered 2 bottles of AT-205 and will see how well it works on his car of 180,000 some odd miles. I’ll let you know if it works on his Toyota. Thanks for another outstanding video!

Mr Kilmer, thanks for everything. I enjoyed the episode when you featured your wife's ES300 - I JUST bought an 01. 114k and incredible shape. Almost perfect. Transmission had an issue but a common one with that Aisin tran and I was sure I knew - if fluid wasn't changed, etc, it would overheat and you'd suddenly lose the ability to upshift and lose reverse, also clunking, etc. It's at my transmission guy, whov verified he shared my suspicion and that it was very fixable. Anyway, I used that knowledge to talk the seller from $3000 to $500 cash. I made a big stink that he had overfilled both transmission and engine, had not serviced the car, and had for some terrible reason only changed 2 sparkplugs. It's at the shop right now. So excited to restore it. It was largely you that taught me all of this. So thank you!!!

I'm a professional mechanic. I have been since 2011. You are so correct. I work with a guy (who is also a mechanic) who doesn't take care of his vehicles at all. I take immaculate care of mine. Weekly washing. Fixing every single thing (even cosmetic) that breaks or wears out. I rarely have a problem. He has problems all of the time. Engine oil leaks. Transmission leaks. Flat tires all the time (I check my tire pressure once every two weeks). etc etc etc. These vehicles give you back what you put into them. I just bought a new Subaru WRX as a second (fun) car and am hoping to get a lifetime of fun out of it! I have a 1991 Toyota 4-runner that has EVERYTHING still working on it. I bought it from the original owner that took exceptional care of it. The rear window works, the moonroof, the power windows/locks. the window defroster strips, etc etc. It is a 5 speed manual 4wd with automatic locking front hubs. Yup they still work despite being "notorious for failing". They were serviced regularly by Toyota. It has 395,xxx miles on it now. It had one engine put in it at 28,000 miles by the dealer under warranty. The original owner blew a headgasket (V6 engine) going up a mountain pass in Colorado. I have a 2011 F-150 (5.0L V8 4wd) with 145,xxx miles. The only problem it has ever had was one wire broke going from the body to the driver's door module where they flex inside the rubber tube between the door and body. I have had multiple motorcycles that I have taken great care of. These older motorcycles have taken me all over the country with minimal issues. I buy a factory service manual for these and service them. I had a 2009 Kawasaki KLR and changed the oil every 1,500 miles because that is when it changed color. I kept ethanol free gas in it at all times. Never had a lick of trouble from it. I have a new 2023 Kawasaki KLR and change the oil every 2,000 miles because that is when it changes color (gets dark). I wash the bike, clean & lube the chain, correctly adjust the cam chain tensioner, and keep the tire pressure correct. I hope to also have years of service from it!

I love your historical perspective on cars and the auto industry. I bought a 2019 370Z new and am now hitting about 48k miles. The oil has been changed every 3k miles with a good filter that has filtration media that filters down to very small micron size particles. Additionally, I let the oil temp get up to a suitable level before I load the engine or rev it to higher levels. The result has been that there is no discernable oil consumption on my dipstick at the 3k mile intervals when I service it. I think that my careful and extended break-in also helped in my engine wearing it properly. Scotty is 100% right in his recommendation of good oil maintenance in prolonging the life of your engine.

@DecrepitBiden Жыл бұрын

When I was in the Air Force, any equipment that has an engine in it, the operating manual always says to let it warm to operating temperature before revving it. I follow it to this day for all my vehicles. I notice other people's car, who just starts up & drive off, their engine doesn't purr, but instead makes a rat tat tat noise, like the engine is struggling. Regardless if their vehicle is new or old.

Most high mileage oils just have more zinc in them and other additives to smooth out cracks and pits to help it idle and run better. Doesn't do much to the seals
