However, whenever you're listening, Um, 59 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: I was talking about breaks this week. We uh you know, 60 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 1: I started thinking about this vehicle because I got tired 61 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: of it sitting on my lift. It took three days 62 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: to get this car off the rack completely done and done. 63 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: It was on and off a couple of times, and 64 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: it was just complicated. It's and not all brake repairs 65 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: are simple anymore, you know. It's It was a twenty 66 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: sixteen Jeep Patriot, and the complaint was that the it 67 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: had a couple of things going on. It would it 68 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: would shimmy shake in the seat of your pants when 69 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: stepping on the brake, but only in the seat of 70 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: your pants, not steering wheel. And then every once in 71 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: a while you take it out and it would shimmy 72 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: shake in the seat of your pants, and it would 73 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: shim me shake the steering wheel. And then sometimes it 74 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: would pull to the left, sometimes it would pull to 75 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: the right. You know, it had like more than one 76 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: symptom going on. It had more than one thing broken. 77 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: And it wasn't terribly old. It was a hundred thousand miles. 78 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying a hundred eighteen thousand miles on it. You know, 79 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: it's not it's not old by any standard anymore. You know, 80 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: a hundred eighteen thousand miles is half life on a 81 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 1: lot of these hicles, and you know, you're just kind 82 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: of trying to pick your way through it. The rear 83 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: brakes needed to be overhauled. That was sort of clear 84 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 1: and obvious. The rear brakes were worn. It was they 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: were down to two millimeters or less. The right rear 86 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: brake pad. I'm sorry, the right rear brake caliper was stuck. Okay, 87 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: I could. I can understand that it had it had 88 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: blewed the rotors. The rotors were warped. The right rear 89 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: rotor was warped. I can understand the shimmy shake from 90 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: the back of That was the shake I felt in 91 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,720 Speaker 1: the seat of my pants. Um, I get that. But 92 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: it was the rest of it, you know, the the 93 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: random pulled to the left, pulled to the right, the 94 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: shake in the front, you know. And the devil's in 95 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: the details. I tell you this all the time. So 96 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: we we overhauled the rear brakes. We you know, we 97 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: fix what we knew was bad and took it back 98 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: out on the road and didn't feel the shake in 99 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 1: the back of the vehicle anymore. But the more I 100 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: drove it, depending upon how hot it got, depending upon 101 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: how hard I pushed on the brake, I could create 102 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: a pulse in the front and you know, get the 103 00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: steering wheel to shake. It now predominantly favored a pull 104 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: to the left. It was a strong pull to the left. 105 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: Even when I wasn't applying the brake, it started the 106 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: drift to the left. I noticed, said, wow, look at this. 107 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:14,159 Speaker 1: I created a whole new symptom um, you know, g whiz. 108 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: So I brought it back to the shop, put up 109 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: in the air, pulled the front wheels down, and I 110 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 1: started looking and just thinking to myself, and I couldn't 111 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 1: prove anything. The wheels were, you know, the calipers moved, 112 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: but you know, the front brakes were getting there but 113 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: not quite. And I just want to just randomly shotgun 114 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: and say, hey, it needs a front break over wall. 115 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: What should ended up needing? Anyway, I wanted to know 116 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: the reason why Jeep wraps their front brake hoses in 117 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 1: a steel bracket about midway down. It's it's supported to 118 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 1: keep it away from a rubbing ants to tire, and 119 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: to just keep the hose fixed. They wrap a steel 120 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 1: bracket around the hose and then bolted to the steering 121 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: knuckle and the and the lower part of the strut. 122 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: And I'm looking everything over and it caught my eye 123 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 1: that there was a rust blister underneath the inside of 124 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: the bracket lip. And I looked at it and I 125 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:13,239 Speaker 1: started to finagal the bract kind of peel it open 126 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: a little bit. That was a big giant chunk of 127 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 1: rust and what was going on? I ended up putting 128 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: a brake hose on the truck. On the geep, I 129 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:24,160 Speaker 1: put a break hose, right front break hose. Uh, it 130 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: must have. It was restricted and this rust blister was 131 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 1: impacting brake flow at certain times that it would limit 132 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: and either it would limit break flow to the right 133 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: front and or depending upon its mood, I guess it 134 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: kept the brake for the left front applied as my theory, 135 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: or the left side of the vehicle I should say, 136 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,799 Speaker 1: because I think this is a cross feed vehicle and 137 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: it made it pull to the left. Uh. You know, 138 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: in any event, it was a right rear caliper and 139 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: a right front break hose that took down the brakes 140 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: system of this vehicle. And while calipers are more common hoses, 141 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,440 Speaker 1: nobody looks at. So I guess the point of this 142 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 1: message is we kick off this hour of the car doctor, 143 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: is when you're doing breaks, think about break hoses. I've 144 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: I've I've noticed this in the last couple of years 145 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: that break hoses are are not respected or considered and 146 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: I am starting to push more for on certain vehicles abuse, age, rust, environment. 147 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: You know, I look at all those things when I 148 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: do break work, when I do anything on a vehicle, 149 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: but break work especially Uh you know. For example, the 150 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: left front axle nut on this jeep Patriot only a 151 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: sixteen what is it seven years old? It must be 152 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 1: parked in a harsh environment. The left front axle nut 153 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: is so badly weathered and corroded that you cannot see 154 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: where the cotter pin begins and ends and where the 155 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: axle nut begins and ends. It's just the all one, 156 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: big rusty blob. While the right side looks brand new. 157 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: It looks like you could take it apart, like it 158 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 1: was assembled yesterday. Uh. You know, environment counts, environment counts, 159 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: condition counts when you're working on something. And that's what 160 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: made me look this over carefully, because they didn't want 161 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: to just randomly rush to judge and say, you know, 162 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: it needs this, this, this and this. But um, you know, 163 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 1: in the end, it stops nice. It does what it's 164 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: supposed to do. But break hoses are a big part 165 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: of the puzzle, and I think we all have to 166 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 1: stop and consider that. So, um, just be aware of it, um, 167 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 1: and the price was shocking. I gotta tell you what 168 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: what break repairs of cost. The price of parts alone 169 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 1: between a four wheel break overhaul, pads, rotors, calipers, break hoses, 170 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,599 Speaker 1: some diagnostic time, a four wheel break flush it was 171 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 1: two grand. Uh. You know, I remember when break jobs 172 00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:42,839 Speaker 1: were break jobs. I wonder what that. I don't know 173 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,280 Speaker 1: where that name came from. Break job? Right? What does 174 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: that mean? Um? You know break repair? See how I'm 175 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:52,239 Speaker 1: programmed from when I started out as a kid. Um, 176 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: you know, I remember when break repairs it was you know, gosh, 177 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: there were six but breaks all the way around the vehicle. 178 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: So it's uh, the price of everything is on through 179 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: the roof and and and for the record, in defensive 180 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 1: repair shops, I'm seeing the price of parts just double 181 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 1: in price. Uh for the better parts. I don't know 182 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: what it is, but the quality part is now that 183 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: quality break rotor is easily double the cost of what 184 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: it was a year and a half two years ago. 185 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: So just be mindful of when you're buying, um, you know, 186 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: and don't assume just because you're buying you're getting a 187 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 1: good deal on breaks. You know, ask what the warranty 188 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: is and get a very specific warranty in writing. UM, 189 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 1: I know a few repair shops a little um, I 190 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,200 Speaker 1: will say disreputable their approaches to use cheap break parts 191 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: that will last at least for the warranty period, and 192 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: then if you're a day out, you end up paying 193 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: for the break job all over again. And I don't 194 00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,360 Speaker 1: I don't find that comforting. But there are guys out 195 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,679 Speaker 1: there like that, so they just don't do the industry 196 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 1: any credit. UM, So be aware, but be aware that 197 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: you've got to look at all of the breaks that 198 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: uh you know, all the breaks on the vehicle, and 199 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 1: uh you know that way you're sure of what you're doing. Hey, 200 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 1: if anybody's getting ready for the race season, p B Blaster, 201 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: Blaster Holdings and Live Fast Motorsports have just announced in 202 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: the last two weeks that Blaster is going to expand 203 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: it's partnership to nine primary races.

We 206 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: could be in the pit crew, Tom, we could run 207 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: the pit crew. Think of it. You could you could 208 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 1: bark the orders and I could just turn the wrenchers 209 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: and we could probably get that car out in three 210 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: or four hours. Between the two of us, there'd probably 211 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: be more accidents on that track.

Question has excuse me? 245 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 1: My question has to do with oil change. I have 246 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: a camera Toyota and it has about thirty eight thousand 247 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: miles on it. It's a two thousand and fourteen. I 248 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: hardly drive anymore, and so I drive about six hundred 249 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 1: miles a year. And I was told by someone I 250 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: should have more frequent oil changes every six months, and 251 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: somebody else said, no, that's not necessary. I'd like to 252 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 1: know what you say. Who who's going to do the 253 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: oil change is a quick lube or a regular mechanic. 254 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: A regular mechanic, Okay, I like I like the six 255 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,559 Speaker 1: month thing. And I'll tell you why. All right, um uh, 256 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: not not to be rude, but you know you're you're 257 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 1: you're sounds you're a woman, all right, you're a senior. 258 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: It sounds like to me, uh, okay, you know what. 259 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: We're all gonna get there. God bless. And I worry 260 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: more about an older car, not just you know, for 261 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 1: the oil change, because you know it's it's, believe it 262 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 1: or not, you're tougher on oil than the person that 263 00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 1: gets in the car and drives an hour each way 264 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 1: somewhere someday. Uh. The vehicle that sits tend to have 265 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: a harder life because it's it's it's aging sitting there, 266 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,679 Speaker 1: right If if we don't move, if we sat in 267 00:13:43,720 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: a chair, we would age regardless. But if it's being 268 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: done by a real mechanic, as I like to think 269 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: of us, uh, you know they're looking at the proper things. 270 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: They're making sure you know, the radiator, the chassis, the breaks, 271 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,040 Speaker 1: the tires are all in good order, that you know, 272 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: nothing is adding or rusting, nothing is leaking, because you know, 273 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 1: for the six hundred miles a year or whoever far 274 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: you go, you want to make sure that you know 275 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: the rest of the cars in good order. An oil 276 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,960 Speaker 1: change is more than just an oil change, is the point, 277 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: all right. And oil change done properly, done correctly, is 278 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: to ensure that the vehicle is in good working order. 279 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 1: And it's so much more than just changing oil and 280 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,280 Speaker 1: a filter. And you know, that's the biggest thing I'd 281 00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: be concerned about. I often scratch my head at everybody 282 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: that wants to do a minimum oil change as a 283 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: vehicle ages because it's an old car and it's not 284 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 1: worth a lot. You know, it's it's it's but it's 285 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: still nine years old, right, it's a it's a D 286 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: so nicely, well, you know, I don't. I don't. I 287 00:14:57,480 --> 00:15:00,040 Speaker 1: don't mind getting an oil change every six month. So 288 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: I just want somebody tell me I was no. I 289 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: don't think you are at all. I think you're smart. 290 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: If and you know the other thing that that does 291 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 1: is this your has been your regular mechanic for a while. Yes, 292 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: it makes It maintains your relationship, right, It maintains your 293 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 1: relationship with your mechanic. And they know who you are, 294 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: and you know, if you've been going there a while, 295 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: obviously you're comfortable with them. And when Christina calls up 296 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: because she has a problem, they're going to take care 297 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: of you. And you know, they know you're a regular, 298 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: and all of that counts. It really does. And I 299 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: say this, I say this all the time. People wait, 300 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 1: not you, but people will wait till the last minute. 301 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: I actually had somebody call the shop Friday Friday at 302 00:15:46,480 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 1: one o'clock, Hey, can I get my car in today 303 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: for some breaks? Friday at one o'clock. I've never seen 304 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: you before. I don't, you know, don't what are we 305 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: doing here? You know? Why don't wait till four o'clock 306 00:15:56,520 --> 00:16:00,000 Speaker 1: and try us then? Like we're standing around waiting. Um, 307 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 1: that relationship with a mechanic is just very important. And 308 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 1: I think whether you're nineties, sixty or some point in between, 309 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 1: I think every six months is a great idea. Okay, 310 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: that's I just wanted to make sure because somebody was 311 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: telling me different and I didn't know what to do. Ye, no, no, 312 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: I'll go with my mechanic. Yeah, I'll go with my mechanic. Absolutely, 313 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 1: You're very welcome. Christ God bless you you be well. Um, yes, ma'am. Uh, 314 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: you know, everybody's an authority. That's the part that's amazing 315 00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 1: to me. And you know, you wonder what the person 316 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 1: that's telling her to get the oil change once a 317 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 1: year does for a living. He's probably a hotdog salesman 318 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 1: or something. I I'm always amazed at people that don't 319 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: do this business for a living. That no more than anybody. 320 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: And uh, you know I run into that a lot. 321 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: You know, it's the second guessers are the people that 322 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: you know they're going to push it to the nth 323 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: degree and then they usually end up on the side 324 00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 1: of the road with the hood up and they don't 325 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: understand why they can't find anybody to help. So um, 326 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 1: it's just it's just amazing to me. But you know, 327 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:08,240 Speaker 1: to reiterate the point, if they're doing the job properly 328 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: once every six months, all right, Uh, they're keeping that 329 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 1: car in good working order. And if an oil changes, 330 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, let's call it, let's call it an 331 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 1: extensive oil change. Let's say it's two hundred dollars to 332 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: change oil fluids. You know, look the car over. Spend 333 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: a little bit of time to put a two dollar 334 00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 1: to spend four hundred dollars a year to maintain a car, 335 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,400 Speaker 1: if that maintains it and keeps her safe and keeps 336 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: her off the side of the road. You know, Listen, 337 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: cars are life dependency, right, You're you're counting on it 338 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: to get you from A to B. And I think 339 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: that she's wise. I think she's wise to call in. 340 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,360 Speaker 1: I think she's great to be a listener. And Christina, 341 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: if you're still out there, I think that yeah, that 342 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 1: you know, they're doing their job. Letting a mechanic, a 343 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 1: real mechanic, do their job to take care of the 344 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 1: car so we can take care of you by all means. 345 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: I think that's so much better off because the other 346 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 1: side of the coin is and I always have this 347 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: argument with people, Okay, change the oil once a year. 348 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: Let's see change the oil in January. Tire pressure gets 349 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 1: set in January. We're gonna have three changes of seasons, right, 350 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: We're gonna go from winter to spring, spring, the summer, summer, 351 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: to fall, fall back to winter. Four right, how many 352 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 1: times you're gonna check tire pressure? Who was gonna check 353 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:21,959 Speaker 1: tire pressure? Who was gonna look the car over? You're 354 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: gonna feel comfortable taking that car out X number of times? 355 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,960 Speaker 1: Nobody's looked at it in ten months, eight months, a year? 356 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: No once every six months is enough. I don't care 357 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 1: how younger world the car is. I'm Ronanandy in the 358 00:18:32,840 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: car doctor. I'm coming back right after this. Don't go away. 359 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: Welcome back, Ranney and the car doctor. Let's go over 360 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:09,160 Speaker 1: to Trevor in Virginia, a sixteen caravan with some chime issues. Trevor, 361 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir, how can I help hi? Ron? 362 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 1: Thanks for taking a call. You're welcome. What's going on here? Well? 363 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,720 Speaker 1: Um my caravan? UM? Think about six months ago I 364 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: noticed that sometimes the little chime noise that would play 365 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: either when you first start the car or when you 366 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 1: get out of the car if you left the headlights on, 367 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: and even the blinker sound that you usually hear when 368 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 1: the blinkers on, all those noises got really quiet, and 369 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: sometimes they'd even sound kind of staticky. And now they've 370 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: just stopped playing those sounds completely. Um, any of those 371 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: noises the car normally makes don't happen anymore. So I 372 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: tried to do some research online and figure out what 373 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: causes what plays those sounds, or how to fix it, 374 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 1: and I didn't really come up with much. So I'm 375 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: just looking to to hear what what plays those sounds 376 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 1: and how difficult something like that is. If you open 377 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 1: the rear lift gate, does it chime? Uh? No? Okay, 378 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: so all the sounds are gone? Yeah, no sounds at all. Okay, 379 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: I want you to focus on. There's a procedure on 380 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: the dodges I believe beginning in fourteen or fifteen, So 381 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 1: the sixteen falls into the time frame where you can 382 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: actually mute those sounds and not realize you've muted them. Um, 383 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 1: have you looked? Have you looked in your owner's manual 384 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 1: under chime? I have not look a look at your 385 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,719 Speaker 1: owner's manual under chime. There's a specific procedure that you can, like, 386 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: for example, the seatbelt chime, you can actually mute the sound. Uh. 387 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: It's something about turn the ignition switch on buckle and 388 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: unbuckled the seatbelt three times and then cycle the key 389 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: back off in ten seconds, and you can affect how 390 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 1: and when the seatbelt chime goes on. I don't I 391 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: don't know why they programmed this in there. I brother, 392 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 1: it's beyond me. I just I would could work or 393 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: not work, um, but I know it's there. I've run 394 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,440 Speaker 1: into this on customers cars where They've inadvertently turned the 395 00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: chime off and I've had to go out and reprogram 396 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: it and bring the chime back on. If if, if 397 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 1: that isn't the issue, then the next place I would 398 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:20,040 Speaker 1: go is because all everything you're describing is on the 399 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: network bus. There's there's not This isn't mechanical switches in 400 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: points and condensers. For lack of a better way to 401 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: put it, Everything here is going to be on a 402 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: network bus system, a network communication and I'd be curious, 403 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 1: do we have communication faults? Do we have any particular codes? 404 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: For example, the turn signal switching that vehicle, the turn 405 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,960 Speaker 1: signal switch circuit has ten individual body codes alone, meaning 406 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: that if it has if it fails in any one 407 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 1: of ten different ways, it'll set a fault code. Won't 408 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: turn on a dashboard warning light, all right, but it 409 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 1: will set a fault code indicating a potential problem and 410 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 1: where to look to begin to diagnose the issue. So 411 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: you know, the answer to the question is this not 412 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,640 Speaker 1: blaming you? Is this operator error something you inadvertently shut 413 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: off without realizing it, or is this something broken that's 414 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: preventing this? You know, the sounds from emanating. And it's 415 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 1: just odd that all of them have failed, including the 416 00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: rear lift gate, because I don't know of anybody that's 417 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: going to turn off that rear lift gate noise, you know. So, 418 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: but just those are the things I'm aware of, just 419 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. I've I've experienced the 420 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: seatbelt one personally with customers, and uh, you know, I'm 421 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 1: out there, you know, in the rain, going why don't 422 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: we have to do this? You know, can't we just 423 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: leave this on? Um? But yeah, so try that that 424 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 1: doesn't work, you know where to find me? All right, Okay, 425 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: I'll check it out. Thank you. You're very welcome, Trevor. 426 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 1: Be Well, let's get over to Let's go over to 427 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: Christine and Delaware fifteen Kia Sorrento and some questions about 428 00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 1: oil loss. Christine, Welcome to the car doctor. How can 429 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:03,200 Speaker 1: I help? I have A two thousand fifteen that it 430 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: is not burning oil and it's not losing oil. But 431 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: we're if it's not dripping oil or losing it, we're 432 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,919 Speaker 1: having a cord of oil in it about every other week. Okay, 433 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: we've had it to two mechanics and they can't seem 434 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 1: to find the problem. What makes you think that it's 435 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 1: not burning oil? Well, we don't have any smoke or 436 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 1: anything coming out the back. Okay, you won't, you won't, 437 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: you won't. A modern vehicle does not exhibit signs of 438 00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:37,119 Speaker 1: oil consumption or lost by burning because of the catalytic converter. 439 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,440 Speaker 1: The catalytic the catalytic converter on a modern vehicle will 440 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: actually oxidize and reduce down the oil and prevent smoke 441 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: from emanating. It's it's it's just part of what it does. Um. 442 00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: Do you know what engine is in this Kia Sorrento? 443 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 1: Is it the one eight? Is it the four cylinder? Uh? 444 00:23:56,440 --> 00:24:02,000 Speaker 1: What is it a four cylinder? Or? Yeah? How many 445 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 1: miles are on it? H And okay, you know a 446 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 1: lot of the Keys and Hundai's uh same engine have 447 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: issues with impending engine failure, oil consumption, engine noise, and 448 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: some of them have extended warranties. I think you're going 449 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,960 Speaker 1: to find that you're out of warranty by time and mileage. 450 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: But what you could do is go out to nht 451 00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,400 Speaker 1: s A dot gov National Highway Traffic Safety Authority dot 452 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 1: gov or or as we say, NITSA. We call it 453 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 1: NITZA for short, and if you type in your seventeen 454 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 1: digit VIN, you know the VIN number off the registration, 455 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: it will it will show you if there are any 456 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 1: open recalls on that vehicle. Well, we have had three 457 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: so far. Okay, any of them apply to the engine? 458 00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:00,400 Speaker 1: I think the last one did. Of it's something about 459 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 1: a knocking noise, right, did they We're not hearing a 460 00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: knocking noise, but when we stopped at a red light 461 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 1: or something and we go to take off its hesitate? 462 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 1: Well does it was? Was the the recall that they did? 463 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 1: Did they replace the engine or did they just do 464 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: a software update? Do you know they did some kind 465 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: of enough? They didn't. They didn't there the engine. Go back, 466 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: go back to the dealership and tell them you are 467 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: now having an oil consumption issue. How long ago did 468 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 1: they do the recall for the knock noise? For the 469 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: software update? It's probably been about a year ago. Okay, 470 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 1: I would go back and talk to the dealership, because 471 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: then you are you don't have to go to NITZA. 472 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:40,120 Speaker 1: I know where you are at this point. You are 473 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,080 Speaker 1: in the um. You are in that group that could 474 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 1: have the potential engine that fails, and you want to 475 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 1: find out sooner rather than later. They've to tell you 476 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: the truth. I don't understand how Kia and Hyundai are 477 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: still in business, and I say that very seriously. They've 478 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: had so many engine issues that I know for a fact. 479 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: My local Hyundai deal are here in North Jersey, I've 480 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 1: become friends with. I've become friends with the local service 481 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,239 Speaker 1: manager at the Hundai dealer. I wouldn't know him if 482 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:09,439 Speaker 1: I was standing next to him. I've sent him so 483 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: many Hundays. He knows me on a first name basis. 484 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: You know, it's it's just it's it's just insane. Um. 485 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:22,040 Speaker 1: The same people, yes, Kia and Hyundai, same engine, basically 486 00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: the same motor group out of Korea, and they're having 487 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: all kinds of engine issues. I know for a fact 488 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:31,639 Speaker 1: the average Hundai dealer has anywhere between a two and 489 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: four month backlog of engine overhauls. Going on as we speak. 490 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: So that's why I say it sounds like you're in 491 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,720 Speaker 1: that group. And my understanding is the reason for the 492 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 1: engine recall UH engine issues was being blamed on poor assembly. 493 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 1: For the life of me, I can't understand why at 494 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: a hundred thousand miles the poor assembly is causing those 495 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,080 Speaker 1: engines to come apart. I think there's some other underlying 496 00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 1: factor they're not explaining to us. But I wouldn't hesitate 497 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: to at least stop by and have a conversation sation 498 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: with the Hyundai dealer. It's probably going to cost you 499 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 1: some kind of a diagnostic fee, but you're okay with that, 500 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,640 Speaker 1: And I'm just putting the thought in your head because 501 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: you're gonna ask them the question. If you determine that 502 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: the fault is in the engine, your next question is 503 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 1: is it covered under warranty? And if the answer is yes, 504 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 1: then I think it's to your benefit to to do 505 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,840 Speaker 1: that diagnostic. It will cost you, you know, a couple 506 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,719 Speaker 1: of hundred bucks, whatever it is, because my experience has 507 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: been the car gets diagnosed, Yes, Mrs Smith, the car 508 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: is under warranty, the engines at fault, Yes, we're gonna 509 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,920 Speaker 1: replace the engine Um, you're then gonna call Hyundai or 510 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,399 Speaker 1: Keia corporate complain about the recall or complain about the 511 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: diagnostic fee. They'll reimburse it, all right, and then they'll 512 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 1: provide you with a loaner vehicle while you wait the 513 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,360 Speaker 1: two to four months to get your car back. It's crazy. 514 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 1: It's it's crazy. I've seen this. I saw it a 515 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 1: half a dozen times, if not longer, if not more, 516 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 1: in the last seven months. It's nuts. Okay, well, then, 517 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 1: weren't what we've been thinking about just trading it in 518 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 1: on a new car. But I'm I will suggest or 519 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: not that you're thinking not for another Kia or a Honda. No, 520 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 1: not at all. But those are those are the things 521 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:13,399 Speaker 1: I know you're up against. There's a lot of information 522 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: out there. Like I said, I think the dealer would 523 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:19,720 Speaker 1: be the first stop if you're considering repairing it. All right, Okay, okay, 524 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: thank you so much. You're very welcome. Do you have 525 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: a good rest of the day? Five zero zero run 526 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: on any of the car doctor coming back right after this, Kaiser, 527 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: this one's for you. Here's the story. So one good 528 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 1: thing came out of this week my trip to the 529 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: eye doctor yesterday. I was sitting there waiting for my 530 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 1: my appointment to get to the surgery, you know, the 531 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: laser surgeon from my eye, and Kaiser came in. Kaiser 532 00:28:54,800 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: is a young man. He's going to U T I. UM. 533 00:28:58,120 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: I forget what it is, something technology instant who uh 534 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: for automotive training, but U T I I know it has. 535 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: And he was talking to the receptionist about you know, 536 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,719 Speaker 1: evidently Kaisers are regular at the doctor where I go 537 00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 1: and he um uh. He was telling them. They were saying, 538 00:29:14,040 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: how's the studies going? And I kind of heard the 539 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 1: story where he's he's he's a young mechanical student. He's 540 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,720 Speaker 1: a young technical student in training to become a diesel 541 00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: mechanic in a normobile mechanic. He's he's up and coming. 542 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: I kind of thought it was funny because you know, 543 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: the kid's name is Kaiser, Like you know, Kaiser was 544 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 1: a car back in the fifties. But you know, I 545 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: guess this parents really wanted this kid to be a mechanic. 546 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: That's what they named him. And then he sat down 547 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: next to me, well one seed over because we're we're 548 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: social distancing six feet still and uh, you know, it 549 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: was kind of funny. I listened to him talk about 550 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: I asked him questions. He he was all excited because 551 00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: they had taken apart and put together a four cylinder 552 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: engine and then put it on a diner and it 553 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,040 Speaker 1: made a hundred and fifty eight horsepower and you know, 554 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: they got to make modifications to it, and you know, 555 00:29:56,920 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 1: it was kind of refreshing to see and hear the 556 00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 1: passion that you know, somebody has for their job and 557 00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: what they have for their future. And uh, you know, 558 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: he could see that I was in a mechanics uniform 559 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,320 Speaker 1: and he asked what I do and where I work, 560 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: and you know, I told him a little bit. I'd 561 00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: explained the whole thing to him, and then I slowly 562 00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 1: explained to him, you know what I do and how 563 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,880 Speaker 1: I do this on the weekend, and he was interested. 564 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: And UM, I think we picked up a whole branch 565 00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: of listeners.

You know, I 631 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: have to tell you it's it's funny. Um you started 632 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: getting married to cars, you you you know, you become 633 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: the the first person to work on them in a sense, 634 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: and um, they're both fairly new ones a one Chevy 635 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 1: Silverado pickup and the other one is a twenty Chevy 636 00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 1: Silverado pickup. Uh, we're doing well changes on them now. 637 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 1: One of them has the NHOU New Hampshire Oil undercoating 638 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: oil package applied to it. They've they actually had their 639 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: vehicle undercoating and n H Oil undercoating and it's kind 640 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: of neat. It's neat to watch, right, I've been working 641 00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: on this truck. It's got uh. I think for the 642 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 1: twenty one has the oil undercoating on it and it 643 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: has no I take that back. The twenty has the 644 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: oil undercoating on it and it's got about eighteen thousand 645 00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 1: miles on it. The other one has fifteen thousand miles 646 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 1: on it. It doesn't have the undercoating and the New 647 00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: Hampshire Ail undercoating product. It's you know, it's an oil 648 00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: based product that they've sprayed on the floor pan and 649 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 1: the frame and they've they've coated and they've treated the 650 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: vehicle to prevent it from rusting. It's amazing to see 651 00:34:46,520 --> 00:34:50,759 Speaker 1: how the twenty one, which is a year newer, is 652 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 1: already starting to corrode the frame in certain places. You know, 653 00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: it's just you can see how weather is starting to 654 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 1: get to it and and beat it up versus the 655 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: tw any, which has been protected since day one. And 656 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,960 Speaker 1: I think that's a testimony to New Hampshire Oil. Uh 657 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: the New Hampshire Oil Undercoating product that you hear us 658 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 1: talking about. We're fortunate to have them as a as 659 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: a as a as a product sponsor. Here on the show, 660 00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: we get to talk about him and we have first 661 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: end experience with the product. But it's it's just amazing. 662 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: Both vehicles happen to show up at the same time 663 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: this week first service and uh, um, you know, the 664 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:28,080 Speaker 1: stuff works, and it's just interesting too. On the twenty 665 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,840 Speaker 1: you know, I've been watching because the folks at NH 666 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,440 Speaker 1: Oil Undercoating had explained to me that, you know, you 667 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: will see how the oil creeps. Um. You know, you'll 668 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: apply it in this area and you'll you'll get a 669 00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 1: good coating. But as you drive the vehicle, the product 670 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 1: creeps out into more extensive coverage and it has to 671 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,160 Speaker 1: be reapplied from time to time. And I understand that, 672 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 1: but it's so well protected this vehicle. I don't think 673 00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,839 Speaker 1: it will ever rust, it will ever rot they'll wear 674 00:35:54,840 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 1: the vehicle out before that happens. That will be there 675 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 1: long after the twenty one has gone. I'm Rondandy in 676 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,840 Speaker 1: the card, reminding until the next time. Good mechanics aren't expensive, 677 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: they're priceless. See you
