Great video. No bs. Thanks alot for making it

excellect

what type of front calipers did you use those look much nicer then the older style of 4 pistons

This is by far the best video I have seen. No one explains the knuckle removal as you did

What about the lower, and you didn't load your suspension before torque

Is this a 2012 Colorado? Anyone please?

Rather pay a few hundred bucks and have a garage do it, looks like hard work. Its not a massive difference really - would like to know if it did settle and go lower?

13:15 im having trouble with this part it doesnt go in it like gets stuck idk

SO I have an odd question. I connected mine the way you displayed when it comes to connecting up to the ac compressor. I connected the ground to the temp. switch with a junction running to the green wire off the ac compressor. Mine is doing something odd. When I am running the AC, the fan will turn on and off, but when the ac is off the fan runs constantly. The only thing I did differently was installed a inline thermostat that was cut into the upper radiator hose. I am assuming if I connect to the ground wire, the fan would run constantly, and if I run the AC and the clutch is running it would run constantly.

I just replaced the spark plugs and coil pack and valve cover gasket and now i get p0301 misfire do you think it would be the injector

Am i the only guy who can do this job with out removing the raidiator ?

Thanks for making this easy to follow along. I was quoted $1300 just for the replacement and figured now would be a good time to do it myself. Wish me luck

Dumb question but I gotta ask. Did you have to pull out or get rid of the original cooling temp sensor?

Thank you

You only needed to remove the top half of the fam shroud right? Not the bottom or ring?

Really great video right up until the time you had to recharge the system???? FYI, I noticed that you also did not have to deal with all the splash guards underneatht the engine bay. Liked your video but once again getting the lower hose off is impossible without removal of the lower splash guards and those guards were ridiculously difficult. Had to bust at least 4 retaining bolts and basically destroy several push pin retainers to get all those guards off. Huge PIA. In addition, there are several retainer cables attached to the bottom of radiator fan shrouds that also proved to be very challenging. It would have been nice to see how all of the above was dealt with before I started my AC replacement project.

Great video, but at what point did you fix the gear box or replace it with a new one ? I only saw when you rotated the shaft 2 times each way , which doesn’t make sense to me how you “fixed” it. Thank you for the vid

If you never heard of rancho suspensión you ain’t old enough lol 😅

I’m having trouble putting on my bell I didn’t have trouble taking it off. I’m starting to chew the tension bowl.

Thanks for the video this was a very frustrating spot to work on, your little tricks saved me lots of headaches

Very well made video. Concise and to the point. Tightening torques and other specs helpful. Thanks!

Maybe it's just cuz I'm exhausted from a long work week but in the future just don't put the playback speed so fast because for those of us who feel like we need to see every step it was a lot of rewinding LOL

How many gallons of coolant did you use/ what’s the capacity?

Wow, I can’t believe how many steps that is so many places for things to go wrong… Great job great editing

Clear video great Audio great colly I have the same exact one with the same exact fix being needed to be done to loud ! My baby usually doesn’t sound like a dying horse so I finally got around to checking where vibration was coming from and other than the steering shaft which, led me to the water pump and clutch fan

Nice job! Looking mean!

Thankyou for video

2:30 “Now with that taped up we can now work on deez nutz”.😂😂

Is this the same as the regular Jetta?

First time doing it ever, took 2 hrs thanks to your video. Priced at local garage for $600. Cost me $45 in parts, $5 of which for an 8mm socket I didn't own. Many thanks.

Ty

I accidentally loosened the two bolts that are amongst the five water pump bolts that I didn't need to remove. Does anyone know what the correct torque settings are to re-tighten these?

After driving for a few months does it still whine or pretty much like new? Feel any different on the wheel? I’m doing mine soon

is there a temp adjustment screw on the relay itself, or is there another component?

Hey funny thing. I've got a 2002 and it's leaking down there somewhere there's always a wet spot right underneath the water pump so I'm going to have to do that too, but the mileage on my truck is 171,000 just like yours.

Was yours vibrating/rattling prior to replacement? Mine is making the exact same noise yours was making, I changed fluid as it was dark/black (324k miles) and the whine/rattling remains. Would you say replacement is necessary? Appreciate it.

Thank you for this detailed install video. I have the same setup on my 78 f350 and I plan on replacing my really leaky and sloppy gearbox along with tie rods and axle pivot bushing Saturday. I have already replaced the radius arm bushings and kingpins. I want it to steer like a new one!

I'm attempting this as an old man, thanks for great instructions and video!

What if you connect the hose right to the output of the heater for it and clamp it on

For the rear what year did you use for spindles?

First off, This is a great video, Thank you! Im thinking about replacing them for preventative maintenance. Im overly cautious about my car but I can never have it down unexpectedly. I live In the rustbelt and am at 80k miles, What mileage do you think I can get to before replacing them? Any feedback is helpful thank you.

Would this be the same procedure for a 2012 Ford focus?

Why is my mechanic claiming it takes dry time over night??? And charging a couple hours work

Thanks! Just replaced my power steering pump and hoses successfully. The most difficult task for me was dealing with the hoses near the tire, there's very little room to swing a wrench around. I'd recommend using one of those cut-away sockets to get a good grip on them. This project also made me realize how dangerously close multiple things are to the serpentine belt, ha.

This is by far the best video I've seen. Thank you.

What is the diameter of the fan???

Best instructional video I have seen. thank you for posting.

Where did you get bro im trynna do my conversion on my Colorado

More complicated than I imagined. It’s tucked back in there! A shop just quoted me about $1000 (4.5 hours labor roughly and including parts and tax). I think this seems right. It’s mostly labor that’s going to kill me in price! Plus I’m a union electrician, skilled but not super skilled as a pro mechanic.

What year is this Canyon? I have a 2018 and was curious if this is the same exact truck.
