Awww dude you have such a food technique in explaining. I'm about ready to replace my power steering pump. I messed it up by trying to flush the old and accidentally ran it on dry foe just a few seconds while I was pouring the new fluid in. Actually don't know if that did it or like you said. Bad gaskets or O-rings. But thanx brother. I know it's going to a be a big job. But after watching your video. I'm pretty confident. Thanks again. Oh other thing! Right after changing the pump. Do I add more fluid? Or leave it at the same level

probably an abs speed sensor issue. May have pulled/pinched the abs speed sensor wire or the connector isn't plugged in right. Also unbolt and pull out the sensors themselves and check that they aren't damaged or dirty on the ends, look down in the hole where the sensor goes and spin the cv axle to see if any of the pickup area is covered or rusted off

I have a question. I just redid the head gasket on my sister-in-law‘s Ford edge 2017 2.0 eco-boost. I put everything back together and I went to start it. It started up ran for about 30 seconds. I got out of the car with the key fob in my pocket. It has some sort of safety feature that cuts the vehicle off. When I went to cut the vehicle back on it acted like a dead battery. So I put a brand new battery in it, and having the same issue. And it’ll kind of fire up quick for about half a second and then starts dragging and then acts like the battery goes dead. But the batteries fully charged. Do you think this would be the starter? Or do you think maybe something with the timing? I made sure all the timing was correct. I used all the correct tools. I just know it’s acting weird, I’m able to turn the engine over by hand no problem. And like I said, it ran 30 second like new. Thank you in advance.

Not wasting time watching. Saw in comments it was thermostat. That is correct. The 3.6 will only like OEM or Mahle brand that I have found in my multiple experiences with this issue as an independent tech. Motorad, Napa etc did not work. OEM was on national back order. Found Mahle ones to work fine. I think we used another aftermarket brand that worked. Can’t recall that one.

The first I did was change the radiator cap to a pressurized cap. The next thing I did was change my thermostat. The part costs $24 and you need minimal tools and can change in less then an hour. I didn't have to go to step 3 which would have been replace the water pump. If you are still overheating after replacing all of this the next thing would be the radiator. I went from the cheapest to the most expensive.

@grogglepus I dont know the name of all the components, but there was a small torsion spring inside that broke. The latch would work in one orientation, but I had to have it out of the door and turned sideways for the piece to fall the correct way and catch the lever just right. I managed to find it for $80 at Advance. Shame. One spring, and the whole thing is riveted together so it would be a PAIN to take apart and repair the spring.

slower ticking means something with a larger diameter (think of the sound of a rock on a skateboard wheel vs one on a truck tire...you'll hear the rock on the smaller wheel tap against the ground more rapidly than the large wheel due to the circumference of travel at the same speed), as for irregular idle exhaust sounds, maybe check and clean the idle air control and/or throttle body

Very informative video you've made here. I'll have to give these tips a try. I have a 2010 xb with 196,500 well maintained miles. My issue that led me to searching for a remedy is that a few days ago while running some errands is that after several short trips of shutting the car off and starting again is the traction control, vsc control and check engine indicator lights all came on in the dash. I really didn't notice any difference in the engine performance but I took the car to O'Reilly and had them scan the OBD 2. Nothing relative to the traction control or vsc sensors was indicated but there was a code relative to the catalytic convertor performance falling below specs. 420 or 402 something like that. I took the car home and disconnected the negative battery terminal and reconnected it in an effort to clear the system of those service lights. They went away but then my idle also fell to 400 rpm. Seems peculiar my idle was normal before but disconnecting my battery changed the electronic idle setting. I'll try your tips and reach back out with an update. 👌
@joyofwrenching24 күн бұрын

I also have a 2014 that’s doing the same thing. Overheating at highway speed. It shows 233 degrees for around 20 seconds before the fan starts bringing it down again. I have changed the thermostat, radiator, bottom radiator hose, and radiator cap. I have used the burping system that you have shown. I have taken it to a mechanic shop and had the system vacuumed and reinjected with coolant. I am now running it without a thermostat, installed a 10” auxiliary fan in front of the transmission cooler and degreased and rinsed the transmission cooler and condenser coil. It is still doing the same thing. At idle, the temperature comes down to 199 degrees. When driving highway speeds, it floats between 233 and 203 degrees. Any suggestions?

Factory radiator fan is indeed blowing towards the engine (pulling air through the radiator). I’m not showing any mixture of oil in the coolant or coolant in the crankcase. Not saying that it could /couldn’t be a head gasket. Idk. It could be a restriction getting air through the transmission cooler and/or the condenser. But like I said, I’ve soaked them both down with degreaser after 5 minutes, rinsed everything off. Since I had just installed the new radiator, I couldn’t back flush the trans cooler and condenser. I thought about it too late. I’m going to put a bottle of Cool Down in the radiator and see what it does (Cool Down from O’Reilly’s). The label optimistically says that it lowers temperatures by up to 30 degrees. We’ll see.
