- We had an adventurous day all around London...
We started off by replacing a Water Pump on a leaky Nissan Qashqai. With this one, I am not entirely sure what caused the trouble on the water, if it was seized, snapped or what but regardless, the vehicle is now ready to take on the road again!
Next up, Starter Motor for a Vauxhall Zafira 2014. We recently replaced the clutch and dual-mass flywheel on this vehicle. It gave me a heart attack when the customer called but luckily enough, it wasn't related at all!
The following day, a KZfaq subscriber booked us in for an Oil Change on his BMW 730D and also to get his MOT Failure Vauxhall Corsa for a new Control Arm and Front Pads and Discs. Once we sorted that, we then looked at the problematic exhaust blow that caused the tester to refuse it for MOT; you will see why he refused it!
Last but not least, we diagnosed a non-starter Citroen Dispatch. Customer called us mentioning that there is a multiple click coming from the engine bay. Straight away, I though, "Cold weather and weak battery"- and I was far from wrong!

Spot on about wheels being gunned on, and why i always take my wheels off and take them for new tyres and refit myself... I think there are a lot of people who do not understand how a torque wrench is used

@Handmemoretramadol 5 ай бұрын

Idiot at a large tyre place stripped the thread from the wheel and the tried to say it wasn’t him and that I needed new hubs to fix it arsehole ,and that’s what I told him said he couldn’t let me drive it home I said in that case he wouldn’t be able to drive home he just gave me the keys ,I’m a 66 year old female who’s 5’2” but I do pissed off very well😂🤣😂🤣😂

Really grates on me when they gun the wheel nuts on, especially when they do it on the locking wheel nut and destroy the key.

great vid as always but top tip from a calibration firm for mobile techs, leave torque wrench set at low 25/50 nm as when its rattling around in transit it causes wear on the internals

They failed it on the bush unfortunately mate. Subframe, they couldn’t really see the hole during the test as it was covered by mud and rust flakes. Regardless, customer has been advised

You can gun the wheels just lightly and then torque the rest. I use a little electric one to nip them up.

Good work on the cars and your videos, guys! Always enjoy watching them. Your attitude is spot on and you are professional when it matters. I recommended you to my family recently as I would use your services when required but now live in Australia - what’s your callout fee? 🤣 Your replies are always very diplomatic and I give you much credit for that. 👍🏼 John (Geoffrey) is worrying me a little - is he slowly losing the plot? 🤣 Keep up the good work.

John, now apparently called Mr Dahmer has lost it! We have a standard call-out fee of £120(+VAT). This includes call-out + 1st hour of diagnostic

So as a fellow professional mechanic the same as my self what percentage of BOLTS would you say your torque per job?

@themarvelousvlog 9 ай бұрын

Hmmm… I’d say 5% if that. Crucial ones I do like Cambelt parts, water pump, clutch, flywheel and ones that actually requires torque, like the wheels 👀

@volt8684 9 ай бұрын

Agreed I am a diyer but at 64 rely on feel on most but wheels always. Lost a wheel on a lancia once was v lucky that day
