1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,520 Speaker 1: Ron and Anian, I've been doing something new where I 2 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,040 Speaker 1: actually keep a written journal at the shop every week. 3 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: I've been looking through your journal. Why does it say 4 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: all work and no play makes Ron a dull boy? 5 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,600 Speaker 1: Rosily over and it looks like a movie The Shining. Well, 6 00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:16,240 Speaker 1: you know it's just stupid books. You've got the shoot 7 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: you mean Shining. You want to get suited, the car Doctor. 8 00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 1: You're filling it up with cooling water or whatever. Engine 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: off and it comes out the bleeder right? Correct? It 10 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: does knock come out the bleeder for the ship? Yeah, 11 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 1: it should, so why does it not? Are you sure 12 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: the bleeder is not clogged? Welcome to the radio home 13 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: of Ron and Anian, the Car Doctor, since this is 14 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: where car owners the world overturned to for their definitive 15 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: opinion on automotive repair. If your mechanics giving you a 16 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: busy signal, pick up the phone and call in the 17 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: garage to orders are open. But I am here to 18 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 1: take your calls at eight five five five six and 19 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 1: now running. I really have a weird job, I really do. 20 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 1: I realized that this week when I was journaling. This week, 21 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 1: I wrote down about this particular car that came in 22 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 1: and the title of this segment started out as I 23 00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: have a weird job, and I know what I was 24 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: thinking at that moment in the shop, and this car 25 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: showed up on Tuesday, and that I don't understand how 26 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: cars get to be put into this condition. They're left 27 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 1: alone and they just drags on and on and on 28 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:35,039 Speaker 1: until it reaches a point of failure. A Subaru rolled 29 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: into the shop this week and it started out so simple. 30 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: It had a flat tire, right, probably one of the 31 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: most common everyday things that can happen to a vehicle. 32 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: It had a flat Now, I haven't seen this car 33 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: in a while. It's been a little over a year. 34 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: It's been quick looped as far as regular service and maintenance, 35 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: and I I get it, but I don't get it. 36 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: I guess maybe the quick loop is it's quicker. It's 37 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 1: it's quick, you don't have to drop it off, you 38 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: don't have to wait an hour, you're you know, allegedly 39 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 1: in and out. Um, you know, it's maybe there's a 40 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 1: cost savings. I don't know, And I guess, you know, 41 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: quick loops have their place. Look, if you're driving a 42 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 1: fleet vehicle or a lease vehicle and you want to 43 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: do the four oil changes you need to do in 44 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: the two and a half years you own the car 45 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: today and get it out the door. God bless Laga's 46 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: on down the road out. But if you're keeping it 47 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: long term, there's no way a quick loop as a 48 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: permanent substitution for a mechanic works. It just doesn't because 49 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 1: they're not mechanics by definition of the of the name 50 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: of the business, the type of business. They change oil, 51 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: and they do a cabin filter and air filter, and 52 00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: you know they're gonna put an air freshener in the car. 53 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: That's about it. But here's a car that's seven going 54 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: on eight years old, her and fifteen thousand miles had 55 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: a flat So I looked at it's it's because it's 56 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: a big butt. On on what happened next? The other 57 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: tires weren't far behind, and one of them actually had 58 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: a really huge dry rod crack in it. But and 59 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:16,680 Speaker 1: it's it's a big butt. The rest of the car 60 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: had issues too. It's been a year, like I said, 61 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: since I saw it, and after a closer examination, you know, 62 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 1: the customer said, hey, look it over, tell me what's 63 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 1: going on. It needed four tires. The right front drive 64 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: axle boot was starting to split open in Sling, Greece. 65 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: The rear brakes were almost down to nothing. And most importantly, 66 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: and this is a biggie, the right rear coil spring 67 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: was hanging out of the strut it had it had 68 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 1: broken and the bottom two rungs if we can say 69 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: that the bottom two turns had unraveled past the strut 70 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: stop and the vehicle was sitting down an inch on 71 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,680 Speaker 1: the right side, that's a big safety issue. If if 72 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: if that had fallen out the rest of the way, 73 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: the body would have collapsed on the tire and it 74 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: would have been an accident. And you know how fast 75 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: would you have been going on the highway at fifty 76 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: even on a back road at thirty, you know there's 77 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: a potential fatality. And judging by the way the coil 78 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: spring was rusted, this didn't just happen. This has been 79 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: like this for a while. And why don't the guys 80 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: in the quick loop say something? Did they see something? 81 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: Do they look? And I'm not picking on them, but again, 82 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: they're oil changers. They're under the car, they're not on 83 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: the back of the car. They're in the front of 84 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 1: the car. They're changing the oil quick loops and oil 85 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: chain shops. You know, to me, they're like fast food. 86 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: They may provide a momentary satisfaction, they may provide indigestion, 87 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: and they fill a need. But there's no way you 88 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: can have an argument and convince me that an oil 89 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: chain shop can substitute a real shop with me mechanics 90 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: or technicians in it. And the sad part is this 91 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 1: is becoming a commonplace event as the automobile continues to evolve, 92 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: continues to get more technologically challenged. You you're you're you're 93 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: flocking to the quick globes, it seems, and they've got 94 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: their place. You want to go to a quick loop 95 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: twice a year one oil change. It a quick loop 96 00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: when oil change at your regular mechanic, great, but you 97 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: can't be surprised when after you know that that year, 98 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 1: that fourteen months, whatever it is, what you haven't been 99 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: anywhere but the oil changed place and you've driven, you know, 100 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: twenty two thousand miles that now when you take it 101 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 1: into your mechanic that you've got a pile of work. 102 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,719 Speaker 1: Super who was gonna have a bill about five grand? 103 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: And all this has to be done at once because 104 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 1: of everything is safety, tires, break suspension. Heck, the battery 105 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 1: had in the battery was a little over four years old. 106 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 1: It's got this stuff growing on it. Um. You know, 107 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: it's just it's so badly the battery is leaking acid 108 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: so badly that it's just corroding the terminal. And again 109 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,840 Speaker 1: nobody pointed it out. And at what point does that 110 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: car get stuck? You know, I've got a weird job, 111 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: I really do, because i've I've I hear it all 112 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 1: the time. You're the only guy I trust, and you're 113 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: the only place I bring the car. But I'm not 114 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 1: and it's not and I can't get people to see that, 115 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 1: and I don't know how to do that. You know, 116 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 1: if you've got a better idea, I'd really like you 117 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,279 Speaker 1: to tell me a zero. I want to know what 118 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: you're thinking. How do you take care of your car? 119 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: Do you? You know? Are are you a quick blooper? 120 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 1: Which is okay if somewhere in that mix, in less 121 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: than a year's time, your mechanics sees it that your 122 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: mechanic is working on it, that he's he's you know, 123 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:13,080 Speaker 1: doing some maintenance to it. It just it's a problem. 124 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: On another note, and this one, didn't even make the journal. Yesterday, 125 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: as I was leaving the shop about four thirty, phone 126 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: rang and it was someone on the phone. I haven't 127 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: seen the car or the customer in four years. You know, 128 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: you're the only shop I trust. You're the only place 129 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: I bring my car. But I haven't seen the car 130 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: in four years. I said, well, yeah, there was the 131 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: time we needed rear braaks. My husband did those, and 132 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: there was a time we needed the oil change and 133 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 1: we took it to the quick Glube because you weren't 134 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: open on Sunday. And I really wanted to say, well, 135 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: you knew you needed the oil change the week prior. 136 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: But I guess I don't know, maybe they didn't notice. 137 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 1: I really have a weird job. I I really do. 138 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: I don't know I have. It baffles me, it really does, 139 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: because is and it's not it's not about the loss 140 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: of the job. It's it's just, you know, it's your safety. 141 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: You know. I got into a semi quasi argument with 142 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: someone at the counter this week. Get a friendly way 143 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: And Bob has been a regular customer for many many 144 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: years and his OH three Toyota the Comma needed a battery. 145 00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: He brought it in because the front end didn't feel right. 146 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: It's got a bad inner tyrode on the left side. 147 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: So at two or fifty six thousand miles, we're gonna 148 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: do all the tyrods. The other side, they're getting sloppy. 149 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: The boots are getting dry but starting to crack. But 150 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,040 Speaker 1: the left the left enner smoked, so we're gonna do tyrods. 151 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 1: The radiators starting to seep at the seam. You can 152 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: see it. There's red coolant dribbling down, so that's leaking 153 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: and it needs a battery. Another battery that was growing 154 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: cauliflower with a positive post. You know how they get 155 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 1: corroded and so bad. I kept I kept coming back 156 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: to that, and he said, you really want to sell 157 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,719 Speaker 1: me a battery, don't you. I said, no, I want 158 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: to keep you safe. I want to keep you reliable. 159 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,520 Speaker 1: You know, That's that's really when a mechanic is doing 160 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 1: their job, is keeping you safe and reliable. Sure, they're 161 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 1: going to make some money on that. That's what they're 162 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: there for. They're no different than the doctor, the lawyer, 163 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:27,559 Speaker 1: the restaurant, wherever you take your business to live your 164 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: life and experience things and and keep and do the 165 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: errans that you have to do and so forth. You know, 166 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: it's not all about making money in a business. It's 167 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: about taking care of people because that's what you're supposed 168 00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: to do. So the next time you take it to 169 00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: your mechanic and they give you a laundry list, I 170 00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: want you to ask yourself, you know, how long has 171 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: it been since you were really there? How long has 172 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: it been since somebody looked at it? And you can't 173 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: use the argument about, well, I don't go anywhere. I 174 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: only went in the last year, because if you sat 175 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: in a chair for a year and didn't move, you'd 176 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: still grow older, just like the car that sits in 177 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,680 Speaker 1: your driveway.

Yeah, 197 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: I wasn't with the story the other day. I heard that. 198 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: I heard about that that made that made the evening 199 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: news right up there at six o'clock. So let's go 200 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: to break. Let's go take a pause for the cause. 201 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: I'm Ron and Eating of the Car Doctor with Tom Ray, 202 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: executive producer at All and we'll both be back right 203 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 1: after this. Don't go away he drives that way. But 204 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 1: when it comes to fixing cars, Ron has card advice 205 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,679 Speaker 1: done right eight five five five zero nine nine zero zero. 206 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: Here's Ron. Hey, let's get over and talk to Tom 207 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,880 Speaker 1: and Wisconsin thirteen suburban and some oil consumption issues. Tom, 208 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 1: Welcome to the car doctor, sir. How can I help? Oh? Yeah, 209 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 1: I bought a used suburbans on it and I changed 210 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: mowing oil and about every miles, uh, using about a 211 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: court of oil, and I changed out about five or 212 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 1: a little after that, and it's down another court. And 213 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 1: I went back to the Chevy dealers and they said 214 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: that normal. And just over many many years, I just 215 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 1: left a goal and uh. Finally I went online and 216 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,959 Speaker 1: I saw that that from two thousand and eight to 217 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: thirteen they had oil problems and they said a GM 218 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: redesigned a new valve cover. And I'm just wondering, well, 219 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: that solves my problem, or it could. It could. What 220 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 1: you should do is get your hands on technical bulletin 221 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: ten dash show six das show one dash double O 222 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: eight M, and that will describe in detail whether or 223 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,880 Speaker 1: not it's applicable to your engine. Some of the late 224 00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: some of the thirteens, depending upon when that thirteen was manufactured. 225 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,200 Speaker 1: If it was late in the model year, it may 226 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: not be applicable because GM actually put the redesigned valve 227 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: cover on it. On the thirteens going into fourteen model. 228 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,920 Speaker 1: You're a production run, UM, but you know you can 229 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: you can certainly look at that bulletin and that will 230 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,640 Speaker 1: give you the information you need is to where the 231 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 1: vent break point was, you know, in other words, you 232 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 1: know up to what serial number might have had it. 233 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 1: And if you're close, I've learned from experience, if you're close, 234 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: you know, if we're within three hundred serial numbers of 235 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: what they say is the break point, I'd still pull 236 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: the valve cover and look because I find them to 237 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: be inaccurate. They don't have that tighter production or quality control, 238 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: if you know what I'm saying. Yeah, sure you know. 239 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,439 Speaker 1: So you know I figured, you know right now, I 240 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: got a hundred on it, and I'd like to keep 241 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: it a long time because this will do any problem 242 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: I have. And uh if this DOLF cover UH six 243 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: is the problem, it would be perfect for me because 244 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: I have the cars have the suburbon has given me 245 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,160 Speaker 1: no problems in the long run. So you know they 246 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: do also have does this have active fuel management? Tom? Yeah? Yeah, 247 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: you know they do have problems with the oil pressure 248 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: relief valve on the active fuel management vehicles, UM, And 249 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: you could look into that, But first place I'd go. 250 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: The absolute first place is to take a look at 251 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: that bulletin and take a look at that valve cover 252 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 1: that was the most common. Does it foul any plugs? 253 00:13:57,960 --> 00:13:59,560 Speaker 1: Has it gotten to that yet? If you pull the 254 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 1: plug just for giggles, just to see, is it my mechanic. 255 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: I had my mechanic pull plugs edible ninety and he 256 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: said they look good. They just you know, didn't hardly 257 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 1: look dirty, but they needed to be replaced, right yeah, 258 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:15,559 Speaker 1: at ninety I would you know it's it's plugs. Plugs 259 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: on most things today are between ninety and hundred twenty 260 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: thousand miles, hundreds of good number to use. I think 261 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 1: after that there's there there can be concerns about plugs 262 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: getting stuck in heads, and you know, for what a 263 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 1: spark plug does, and for where we've come as far 264 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 1: as you know, years ago, we were changing plugs every geez, 265 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: every ten thousand miles. I think I think we can 266 00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 1: all afford to put us set of spark plugs in 267 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: our car at nine hundred and um, I think it's 268 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: better for the performance in the life of the car 269 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 1: over the long haul. So uh, that was absolutely the 270 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 1: right thing, all right, so do you need that? Do 271 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: you need that pullet the number again? I know I 272 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: kind of rattled it off. Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry, Yeah, 273 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,720 Speaker 1: I do that. You know, when I'm when i'm rolling, 274 00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 1: I kind of forget where I am. Let me know 275 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,920 Speaker 1: when you got a pencil and paper ready, and I'll 276 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 1: be glad to give it to you again. I do. Okay, 277 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: it's it's number ten, dash O six, dash O one, 278 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 1: dash O eight, MAZ and Mary is the one I remember, 279 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: and that was dated I believe late when that came 280 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: out November or December now by now, anytime GM puts 281 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: a letter after a bulletin number like that, that means 282 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: it was there was oh eight A B C, D 283 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 1: E F G right on down the line. So you 284 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: know they were up to m as the last one 285 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 1: I saw. So that tells you what kind of problems 286 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: they've got. Um. You know, so if you think this 287 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: delve cover, let's see, it doesn't do the problem, would 288 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 1: you look at that activated active Yeah there, yeah, I would. 289 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 1: I just you know, I would. I would find the 290 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: diagnostics for that. You know, the problem is the problem 291 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 1: is that most of the industry excepts oil consumption at 292 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: you know, accord every thousand or record every normal and 293 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: you know the way they make engines today to a 294 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 1: degree that is normal. My concern is if it's burning oil, 295 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:08,120 Speaker 1: that oil is going through the exhaust system in some 296 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: form and it's coding the catalytic converters, so it's shortening 297 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 1: the life of the cat. And you know, the the 298 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 1: the the the weapon against that is you should really 299 00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: be using some sort of fuel system cleaner to help 300 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 1: keep the cat fresh because what happens is that oil 301 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: will sit on the on the on the material inside 302 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 1: the cat, cause that to be restricted and prevents the 303 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,960 Speaker 1: cat from storing oxygen, causing its failure because it doesn't 304 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: light off and do what it's supposed to do and 305 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: in helping with emissions. So you know, it's they create 306 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: this thing that you know, while we get better fuel economy, 307 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: they you know, from maybe a lower tension oil ring 308 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: or some other engine design, and it then burns oil 309 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 1: and then it wipes out the cat, and then it 310 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: makes you replace the cat, and then it makes you 311 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: replace the engine. And before you know what, you've bought 312 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 1: the car three times, um you know, or or you've 313 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: driven it, or you've driven it, you'll drive it for 314 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 1: two years with a check engine light on because you 315 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: just don't care, which I understand and listen, in the 316 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:09,479 Speaker 1: real world, that's what happens, and um, you know, nobody, 317 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: nobody ends up putting, the environment loses, and the vehicle 318 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: owner loses. Well. I what I read was some of 319 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: the people are hapt de vacuating that us who are 320 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: it cuts it down before, they're just taking it off. Um, 321 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,560 Speaker 1: I think that's a preference. I don't care for it. 322 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: I have done my best to avoid it based on 323 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,479 Speaker 1: what I see with customer vehicles breaking rocket arms and 324 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 1: some of the other valve train issues that they have. 325 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: You know, I have seen people bypass it. There are 326 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: kids out there in the aftermarket that you can purchase 327 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: that will prevent it from going into a four cylinder mode. 328 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 1: You know, in my mind, and maybe I'm wrong, maybe 329 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 1: I'm archaic in my thinking, but if I'm buying a truck, 330 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 1: I'm buying it to be a truck. A truck is 331 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: a truck is a truck, right. I I'm not happy 332 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: about the fuel economy sometimes, but I don't want to 333 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: avoid it. And you know, with active fuel management on GMS, 334 00:18:06,480 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: my experience has been that. When it breaks, it's expensive 335 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: and you know for the few dollars I'm saving on fuel, Um, 336 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: you know what am I spending on repairs? And it 337 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:17,639 Speaker 1: doesn't It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. 338 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: So UM, go that way, sir, find that bulletin, go 339 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: through all that and if you need me, I'm here. 340 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm glad to give you more. But there was definitely 341 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 1: oil consumption issues on that and the years before Chevy Suburban, 342 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: so I think Chevrolet is missing the boat there.

Don Welcome to 369 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 1: the car doctor, sir. How can I help? Yes, So, 370 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: good morning. I think a fuel pump problem. I got 371 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 1: gas the other day and pump running slow about dollar 372 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,480 Speaker 1: fifty seven. I stopped. These other pumps were flagged off 373 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: no gas after slow running as I stopped to dollarpick seven. 374 00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: I filled up. Since then, the third day, coming home 375 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: from work, it's stalled made another ten miles, staved again, 376 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: would not restart. Uh. Coded home this morning that started. 377 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: I drove with three mile radius here around the house, 378 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 1: drove in the drive, turned it off. It wouldn't restart. 379 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: Taking the fuel filter off, cleaned it out. Uh, because 380 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,440 Speaker 1: I've only got one vehicle, so I couldn't go get 381 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: a new filters and it still won't start. Okay, so 382 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: right now it won't start correct all right? And what 383 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 1: was that you had said about the fuel pumped on? Well? Uh? Um, 384 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 1: I thought that the pump was working, but I'm don't. 385 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. Okay, do you have Do you have 386 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 1: the ability to check fuel pressure? No? I do not, 387 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: you know, or the ability to maybe drill a fuel sample. 388 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,120 Speaker 1: Do you think it's related to the guests that you purchased. 389 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,719 Speaker 1: I'm thinking it might have been that dollar fifty seven 390 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 1: I put in it. I say, I shut it. I 391 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: stopped it because it was going so slow and I 392 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 1: know it was at the bottom of the tank, so 393 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: I stopped it. But I'm thinking I did get their 394 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: bad gas. Are you saying the guests is a dollar 395 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: fifty seven a gallon? Are you put in a dollar 396 00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: fifty seven is worth? I put in a dollar fixty 397 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: seven worth and they were so slow and that's why 398 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,120 Speaker 1: I stopped it. Okay, got you all right? So at 399 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: this point it's somebody's got to be able to do 400 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 1: the following. All right. Um, it's a it's a crank, 401 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: no start, does the engine turn over? It makes that? 402 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,719 Speaker 1: It makes you know, the starters working? Oh yes, and 403 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:12,359 Speaker 1: tsh that starts, but it just doesn't. All right, on 404 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: the chance that's for some reason it's flooded. Have you 405 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: I'm sure you've gone through the routine of holding your 406 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: foot to the floor to put it in clear flood mode? Correct? Okay? 407 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:29,000 Speaker 1: Do you have the ability to pull a spark plug? Uh? Probably? Yeah, 408 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,960 Speaker 1: you know. Could you pick a plug? Pick an easy 409 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: one to get to pull a plug? Does it look wet? 410 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: You know? Does it look wet? Does it smell of fuel? 411 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: If you were to take a cigarette lighter or match, 412 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: could you light the end of the plug on fire 413 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: showing that it's gasoline soaked? Well, I haven't done that, 414 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,840 Speaker 1: but I'll have to, okay, just on the chance that, 415 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, if it's gasoline soaked, why is it why 416 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,440 Speaker 1: is it flooded? Why is it fouled? Like that if 417 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: you take the plug out and it's it's it's you know, 418 00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: white tannish dry. We know it's not being fouled from 419 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: excess fuel. Then the next thing I would tell you 420 00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: you don't happen to have a spark tester in you 421 00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 1: in your home bag of tricks? Do you? Uh? Okay? 422 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 1: You know from you know, same thing working on a 423 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: lanmore if you can put something in that spark plug 424 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,639 Speaker 1: wire just to check for spark? Is this loss of spark, 425 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: loss of fuel? What is it? And then the last 426 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,920 Speaker 1: thing you can do, because I always try to empower 427 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: you guys to you know, do this on your own 428 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: before you take it somewhere, is just turn the key on, 429 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 1: turn the key on, look at the check engine lighter, 430 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 1: service engine light when you turn. When you turn the 431 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 1: key on, does the service or check engine light light up? 432 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 1: It should light up for up to five seconds and 433 00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: then go out. If it doesn't light up, then there's 434 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:51,439 Speaker 1: a possibility the main engine computer is not awake. And 435 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:55,560 Speaker 1: if it's not awake, because it's not gonna run light up, 436 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: all right, good one test over one thing that you 437 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 1: know what it's not right? So um, and that's you guys, 438 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: hear me say this all the time. It's about no 439 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: one what's good to figure out what's bad. But this 440 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: just comes down to does it crank evenly? Does it 441 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:17,800 Speaker 1: it sounds normal? Okay, then you know it's chances are 442 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: it's not mechanical. This is gonna be a fueler spark 443 00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: related issue. Um, you could just for giggles, unplugged the 444 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: mass airflow sensor and crank it see if it starts. 445 00:24:30,760 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: On the chance that this is a on the chance 446 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: that this is a defective mass air and it's sending 447 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: improper signal, and unplugging it may put it into clear 448 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: clear mode and where it'll run on its own as 449 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,919 Speaker 1: a failure. Um, I don't keep I don't keep tracking 450 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: my head what your softwares did that and what years 451 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: didn't last? Thing? Just make sure there are no cracks 452 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: in the bottom of the air and take duct leading 453 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: up to the engine. That it's solid and good and 454 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 1: clean and in place. You know, those are the things 455 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,399 Speaker 1: you can do on your own, all right, right, the 456 00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 1: filter and it's clean, right, And probably the biggest thing 457 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: you can do here is just listen. If this was 458 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,719 Speaker 1: your lawnmower, do you have a lawnmower. Okay, if this 459 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: was your lawnmower and it didn't start, how would you 460 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: diagnose it? Sparking fuel? Right, sir? Same thing? No blades, 461 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:29,239 Speaker 1: all right, so same thing. It's just an engine, all right. 462 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,160 Speaker 1: What do we make three items to work? Right? Yep. 463 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:36,360 Speaker 1: So let's take it from there and see where it goes. 464 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 1: Call me back if you need more. All right, well, thanks, 465 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: I appreciate it. You're very welcome, sir. Good luck to you. Yeah, 466 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:43,959 Speaker 1: I don't you know. And then as the last thing, 467 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: if don still listening to uh, um, you know, obviously 468 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: take a fuel sample if if he thinks this is 469 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: fuel related, because if he's got spark and he's got 470 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 1: fuel pressure, then it's we're into you know, do we 471 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 1: have a bad Do we have bad fuel in the tank? 472 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: But um, chances are it wouldn't have run like it did, 473 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: so uh, you know, and then that comes back to 474 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,439 Speaker 1: you gotta take fuel pressure, and that's why it's you 475 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: know what, it's good if you're gonna work on your 476 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: own car too. You can buy fuel pressure gage setups 477 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: now cheap under a hundred bucks, and you can probably 478 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:12,959 Speaker 1: find one particular to your car. If you you know, 479 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: you know what you're working on. I'm looking for a 480 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:17,679 Speaker 1: fuel pressure set to fit up an O one Chevy 481 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 1: Suburban or O one Silverado. And uh, you know, then 482 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 1: at least you can also take a fuel sample when 483 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 1: you release pressure by the gauge into a bottle or 484 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,680 Speaker 1: a clear glass jar, and uh, you know, look at fuel. 485 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: So um, yeah, simple basic things, man. It doesn't matter 486 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: whether it's got whether it's got a lot more blades 487 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: or not.

My wife recently approached the two eighteen Rogue. Well, 496 00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 1: we'll drive models on it. It's certified. Then I find 497 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:23,879 Speaker 1: out after the fact that they had some issues with 498 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 1: the CVT transmissions and there was a class action lawsuit. 499 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 1: But I hear they are better now. My question simply 500 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: is does maintenance help avoid any catastrophic failure transmiss? Yeah? Sorry, um, 501 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: you know you can. And I think I think the 502 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 1: reason the answer is no is and you know, it's 503 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,160 Speaker 1: funny I asked this question. I had a very dear friend, Tim, 504 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: who was the shop former at the local Nissan dealer. 505 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: He's since retired, and we would go to lunch and 506 00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 1: dinner on occasion and sit and chat and talk about 507 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: the events of the week, you know, his mechanics, would 508 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: you know, talk and he would always talk about the 509 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,440 Speaker 1: c VT s and what problems they were for Nissan. 510 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: And I asked him that very question, and I said, 511 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: you know, Tim, would you know changing the fluid? Because 512 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 1: the mentality of a CVT trans if you look at 513 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,959 Speaker 1: the maintenance schedule, very few manufacturers, Nissan among them, tell 514 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 1: you to ever change the fluid. It's lifetime. And I 515 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: asked him that does does maintenance help the trans survive? 516 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 1: And his answer was, we usually never see one get 517 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: to the sixty thousand mile mark that we can change 518 00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 1: the fluid to find out if it will help, because 519 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 1: usually by the time it's got forty on it, it 520 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: needs a trans right. You know by the fact I 521 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,159 Speaker 1: think I purchased from that dealership where local to you? 522 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 1: Um so, But I traded in a two thousand fifteen 523 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 1: Mini Cooper to avoid with a hundred thousand miles on, 524 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:44,080 Speaker 1: to avoid any issues. I told my wife get rid 525 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,600 Speaker 1: of it now. But anyway, so I don't know if 526 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:47,440 Speaker 1: I went from the from the pan to the fire 527 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: at that point, um you probably when it was probably 528 00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 1: an even trade. I will say that. I will say this, 529 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: though you bought it certified pre owned, at least you've 530 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: got a good warranty on it, right, didn't think miles 531 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: on it's always covered for so so so they are 532 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 1: pretty much all yeah, to be cautious. Really so wait 533 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,080 Speaker 1: a minute. You you purchased an eighteen with twenty thousand 534 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: miles on it and already had the trans replaced. No, 535 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: it did not. My concern is that after sixty thousand 536 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 1: it will need trans right, and I'll be up. But 537 00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: I have the extended warranty. When I'm used to I drive, 538 00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: I have a tired of yards that I have two 539 00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,080 Speaker 1: thousand miles on that I have no issues whatsoever where. 540 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 1: But I will say this, Paul, that that the c 541 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: VT is the weak link in those vehicles. The rest 542 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: of the vehicle is pretty solid if if you stay 543 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: up on the oil changes and do the fluids. And 544 00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 1: you know what, if I had one at sixty, I 545 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: changed the fluid. I plan on doing every thirty thousand 546 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: that is recommended by just some websites. I want on 547 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: just to keep it in the extreme the other way, 548 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: keep the maintenance, say, I'll keep it really clean. And 549 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 1: then to keep the oil. Um, I mean I go 550 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: back a low the way I use an ams oil 551 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 1: probably sometimes for that stuff. UM. I find them to 552 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: be very helpful with with the oils and the transmission fluid. 553 00:30:07,360 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: So I just wanted to pick your brain about the 554 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,040 Speaker 1: car and make sure I didn't get stuck with something 555 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm gonna regret. No, I don't think so. You know what, 556 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: it would be hard pressed for me too if somebody 557 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: said to me, hey, Ron recommend a car that doesn't 558 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: have any problems. You know, it's it's it's it's a 559 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 1: hard deal today. Everything's got its issues. Uh. The nice 560 00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: thing about that is, you know it's sort of like 561 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: we know when it's we know what to look for, 562 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,720 Speaker 1: and we know when it's gonna happen, and we know 563 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: what it takes to replace. You know, It's it's not 564 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 1: like it's a mystery. It's not like you're gonna call 565 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: me up in two years and go, hey, Ron, the 566 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 1: car has got this jutter and shake and it does 567 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: this weird thing with the trans and you know, we'll 568 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:41,959 Speaker 1: be able to tell you, hey, go look at this, this, 569 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: and this on a scan tool, and if they don't 570 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: match up to that, then it's a bad trends because 571 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 1: there's so much history on those, there's such a common failure. Uh, 572 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 1: you know, so that's that's in any way, that's a 573 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: good point. I'm start to they have the least for 574 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: my research is Nissan. They make their own. They have 575 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 1: the worst on the market. The other ones are somewhat 576 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: not the best, but they make the worst one. Yeah, yeah, 577 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: I And the other thing to keep in mind, and 578 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if this still pulls into the eight 579 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:12,440 Speaker 1: teens because obviously they're so new, but a lot of 580 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: the CVT failures on the older ones were because the 581 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 1: radiator would fail. The radiators failed around the sixty to 582 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: eighty thousand mile mark, the trans coolers went fed mixed 583 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: trans and and cooling together and destroyed the transmission. Right, 584 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: that's catastrophically Yes. So I think for me, the the 585 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,560 Speaker 1: easy answers. Just do the best I can maintaining it 586 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 1: and drive and enjoy it and never never tell you 587 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: why she bought the wrong vehicle. That's a whole another problem. Um, 588 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: she's usually right. But yeah, like I said, it was 589 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,120 Speaker 1: a two Mini Cooper. That's scared the heck out of me. 590 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 1: Every time she drove miles it started to get me 591 00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: a little nervous. Did it have water leaks? No, but 592 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: it was it's pricey to own and operate. Yeah it is. 593 00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,720 Speaker 1: I've got I've got my style thing Like you said, 594 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: it's a lifestyle things. I've got to know. Seven mini 595 00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: sitting in the shop I'm fixing for another shop in 596 00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: the area. That um, and it's this thing is like 597 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: a submarine. The floor is all wet, there's there's water everywhere. 598 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: It's it's the car's a mess. And I just look 599 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: at this and say, why are we fixing it? But 600 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: you know somebody wants to fix it. We'll fix it. 601 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: It's just MANI minies get to be very expensive as 602 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 1: they get older. They really do well, right if that, 603 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 1: and I said, I gotta get rid of this because 604 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:27,440 Speaker 1: everything was a thousand dollars right, Oh yeah, yeah, it's yeah, yeah, 605 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: you're Paul. I think I think I'm okay with the 606 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: Nissan for a while. Anyway, I love your show. I 607 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: love everything to do.

And Danny looks at him, 647 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: and Danny gave him the best line I've heard. He goes, Yep, 648 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:17,360 Speaker 1: that's in the man, the myth, the legend. It was 649 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: just so funny.

The article states, and 659 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,800 Speaker 1: this is off of CNBC their articles They're gonna spend 660 00:34:46,800 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: billions on gas powered vehicles. Now, this makes no sense. 661 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:52,720 Speaker 1: Why are we doing this? The U. S. Postal Service 662 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: completed a regulatory requirement for its plan to replace its 663 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 1: delivery fleet with thousands of gas powered vehicles forging a 664 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: out with the decision that's drawing long drawn opposition from 665 00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: the current administration environmental group. Well, doesn't the president have 666 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 1: the ability to stop that? I understand that. Um, the 667 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,919 Speaker 1: Postal Service operates two thirty vehicles, making up one third 668 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,520 Speaker 1: of the country's entire federal fleet. I would think the 669 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: Postal Service is the perfect vehicle for an electric vehicle. 670 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 1: Is predictable mileage, you know where they're gonna go, you 671 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 1: know the route, you know when you could charge them. 672 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,480 Speaker 1: It makes no sense. But um, I just thought I 673 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: throw that out to you, that that's in the news, 674 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 1: so that I think is wrong. I'm mondinating in the 675 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,240 Speaker 1: car doctor, reminding you till the next time. Good mechanics 676 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,560 Speaker 1: aren't expensive, they're priceless. Let's see you
