00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,320
Speaker 1: much like the customer that came into the shop this week, Elizabeth,

32
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: she had a ninety eight Honda accord that blew one

33
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 1: of the main break lines going down along the floor pan.

34
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 1: And to replace it. By the time you buy all

35
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 1: the lines from Honda, install them, reroute a few things,

36
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,400
Speaker 1: it's probably a two thousand dollar repair. She decided it

37
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: was time to replace this three hundred thousand mile accord.

38
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: And you know the guidance that I gave her and

39
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: making a car purchase decision and things to look for

40
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: and conversations and the different brands that I are, you know,

41
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: my particular like list right now, UM that that's really

42
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: what I did for her. That's what I want to

43
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: do for you, because um, you know that's what this

44
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: radio show is all about, just trying to help you

45
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: make a decision, trying to help you understand the car,

46
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: because I know it's a very complex, very difficult to

47
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:24,399
Speaker 1: deal with item in your everyday life today. And that's

48
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: just the way it is. That's the technology of it,

49
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: and that's you know. I'm just here to help you

50
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: sort out the technology and the mechanical nuts and bolts

51
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:31,960
Speaker 1: as it were, and to help you make it to

52
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: the point where you can understand it. There are times

53
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: I don't understand it, so you know, trust me. If

54
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: if I have a problem, then you're gonna have an

55
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: even bigger problem. I worked on a Volkswagen this week.

56
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: I was gonna tell you this story second. Now I'll

57
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: tell you this story this hour. Um, I worked on

58
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 1: a Volkswagen this week. Um, don't say this to anybody,

59
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: and don't don't don't say it too loud. I think

60
00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: I'm starting to enjoy working on Volkswagens. I can't. I

61
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: can't figure out why I had a I had a

62
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,919
Speaker 1: two thousand three Volkswagon Golf this week and it needed

63
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: a timing belt. Well, actually what happened was a little

64
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:17,959
Speaker 1: too leader. It came in with an overheating complaint and

65
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: one of the problems that's common on these And you know,

66
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: I guess the reason I'm starting to like Volkswagon as

67
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: I'm starting to understand them, because they're so easy to

68
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 1: pick on. They make it. They make it so simple

69
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 1: to say, what a piece of junk it's. You know,

70
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: it's just the impeller for the water pump. And this

71
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 1: has been going on. This is not news. This has

72
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: been like this for years. The the impeller, the piece

73
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: that spins that circulates the coolant on this particular Volkswagen,

74
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: like a lot of them, is made out of plastic.

75
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: It's a plastic impeller and they're known. They fall off,

76
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: they get loose, they stick, they go, and they do

77
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: anything but circulate cooling day for so many miles, and

78
00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: you have to replace them. Well, you know, this one

79
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: was no different. Car came in with an overheat complaint

80
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: that had no heat, and then it would have heat,

81
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 1: and then it didn't have heat. Pulled the thermostat out.

82
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: If you pulled the thermostat out, you can stick your

83
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: finger in the hole and feel the impeller, and sure enough,

84
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: the impeller spun all by itself, which would be great

85
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: if the timing belt wasn't on the car. But since

86
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: the timing belt drives the water pump. Oops, you know,

87
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: the plastic impeller is is loose. In order to do

88
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: a water pump on a Volkswagen, this one and a

89
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: lot of them, you've got to take the timing belt off.

90
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: So it's sixty miles this time. Will do a time

91
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: belt anyway on this you know two thousand three swords

92
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: it almost fourteen year old Volkswagen. Um, let's let's do

93
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:42,840
Speaker 1: a timing belt. You take the timing belt apart, and

94
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: you know, you're looking for the marks, and yep, there

95
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 1: it is. There's the white mark and there's the but gee,

96
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: the the crank doesn't line up. No, that's got to

97
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: be the mark. You look at it three times, that's

98
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: got to be the market. You bring the flywheel around

99
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: because on Volkswagen. See, Volkswagen wants to save money on

100
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: timing marks. They don't want to have a guy stand

101
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,679
Speaker 1: there and stamp the mark on the front of the motor.

102
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: They want the camp sprocket i D mark on one side.

103
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: They want the cranksprocket i D mark on the trans slide,

104
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: so you're looking between the two. This side is here,

105
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: this side is there. I'm not sure why they do

106
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 1: it this way, but you know, if any bag of doughnuts,

107
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: that's just the way they do it. So you know,

108
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: you find the mark on the other side, and you go, Okay,

109
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: that's it. There's a there's a notch and you take

110
00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: the belt off. Now, when I take timing belts off,

111
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 1: and I've done more than a few, they don't pop.

112
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: I haven't had it where the camp sprocket goes and

113
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 1: kind of is sprung. It's not under load. Usually you're

114
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: you're catching it in a in a in a in

115
00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: a dead spot, in a flat location. Well, that wasn't

116
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: the case. And when I saw the camp Sprocket jump,

117
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,119
Speaker 1: I went, oh, man, I bet that wasn't the timing mark.

118
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: Sure it looked like the timing mark, but I bet

119
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: it wasn't the timing mark. Did a little more digging,

120
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 1: took the sprocket, took the camp sprocket and found another

121
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: mark on it, another mark that had no paint, which

122
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: was unusual because usually the notch in the sprocket is

123
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: accompanied by a paint dot of some type, and I said, gee,

124
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: I guess the only way I'm gonna know this is

125
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to look at the and I put

126
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: it back together. I put the timing cover back on

127
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: on the front side, and there's an approximation mark. I

128
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: call it because it's it's approximate. It's it's it's there

129
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: for the concept of depending upon how you tighten the

130
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 1: alan screws going into the balance, or whether or not

131
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: it's true top. So put it there and I went, wow,

132
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,240
Speaker 1: it's not even close. But yet there's a mark on

133
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 1: the flywheel. Long story short, I come to find out

134
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: that the mark on the flywheel was a false mark.

135
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: Somebody must have taken it apart at some point and

136
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: put it a notch into the flywheel. It wasn't stamped properly.

137
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: And I wun the flywheel around and low and behold,

138
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 1: I found the zero mark. I found the exact zero

139
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: mark that looked like I remembered it. And when I

140
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 1: did that, I lined up the camp sprocket and put

141
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 1: it together and it worked. That isn't the point of

142
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 1: the story. When I pulled the water pump out of

143
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 1: the block. Remember I was doing a water pump, and

144
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,520
Speaker 1: I got sidetracked by the timing marks that weren't there.

145
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 1: When I pulled the water pump out of the block,

146
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: the water pump came out and there was nothing on

147
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 1: the other end. I went, gee, where's the impeller. Where's

148
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: the piece that's supposed to spin around it circulates the

149
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 1: cool one? And I stuck my finger in the hole

150
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: and I pulled it out and there it isn't two halves. Now,

151
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: I mean, come on, I know you guys think I

152
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: don't like Volkswagen. I'm trying to be democratic about it,

153
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: said Volkswagon. Well how he started by saying he does

154
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:55,680
Speaker 1: like volks I'm starting to think I do like Volkswagen.

155
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: But then I look at how do you design something

156
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,559
Speaker 1: with a plan a stick impeller in a cooling system,

157
00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: expecting it to last? And I'm thinking, you know, this

158
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 1: was the same engineer that created the emission scandal. The

159
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: guy had nothing else to do that day, figured he

160
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: put a plastic impeller on the water pump. When the

161
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,320
Speaker 1: water pump failed, the engine overheated, it blew up. They

162
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: drive up sales. I think it's a plot, Like what

163
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 1: are they thinking? I'm starting to like working on Volkswagens

164
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: more because I'm starting to understand how they think. They

165
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,599
Speaker 1: think badly. Um, you know, it's just it's just the

166
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:40,959
Speaker 1: way they are. Long story short, and I've said that already.

167
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 1: Cars only as good as the way it's engineered, but

168
00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,640
Speaker 1: the way the engineer puts it together makes it more

169
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: difficult for the mechanic. Last week on Facebook, I was

170
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: talking about something about the way a particular car was

171
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 1: put together, and somebody actually wrote on the Facebook post

172
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,319
Speaker 1: they said, Wow, I love it when mechanics call out engineers,

173
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 1: and I promptly wrote back, Gee, if you really want

174
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: to get a good laugh, you should be a mechanic

175
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: for forty three years and see what it feels like,

176
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 1: because you'll die laughing. The point is engineers make mistakes,

177
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,679
Speaker 1: and engineers make mistakes based on what the marketing and

178
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: the accounting department tells them they're allowed to put in

179
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:21,440
Speaker 1: the car. That's my belief. They're governed by dollars, they're

180
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 1: not governed by common sense. The day and age of

181
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,600
Speaker 1: building to build it to last is so far gone

182
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,360
Speaker 1: it just doesn't exist anymore, and we see it everywhere

183
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 1: in everyday life. From buying rubber made garbage cans to

184
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: the local hardware store, to buying the same garbage can

185
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 1: at home depot, and they're the same brand, same model,

186
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,199
Speaker 1: and yet one weighs half as much as the other

187
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: because Home Depot has got their own brand of garbage cans.

188
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 1: Things are not made to last. Volkswagen water pumps were

189
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: never meant to go to the distance. Here's one of

190
00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: fifty eight thousand miles. The impeller fell off, and yet

191
00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: to do this you have to go through this whole

192
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,000
Speaker 1: rigular role of pulling the whole front of the motor

193
00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: apart in timing, belt and tension er. And where am

194
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,559
Speaker 1: I going with this conversation? No, we're really I just

195
00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 1: wanted to explain to you that I sort of like

196
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: volkswagons Again. Um, I've got more stories like this this week.

197
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: I've got all kinds of things I want to talk

198
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,679
Speaker 1: to you about. I want to make you aware that

199
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 1: if you're working on a car and you think things

200
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,199
Speaker 1: are going along really well, well that's the story for

201
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 1: the second hour that I was gonna tell. The first hour.

202
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell you about the Toyota and how things

203
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 1: go bad with because everyone's in a while, things go

204
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: bad on Toyota's too. Um, So we'll talk about that

205
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: a little bit later on this hour, maybe next hour. UM.

206
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: I also want to comment. I gotta I got an

207
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: email from a listener about Toyota hybrids. They want to

208
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,079
Speaker 1: talk to me about a Toyota Hybrid. They want to

209
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: know what I think about them. I've got some thoughts

210
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: on that. I went and I talked to a couple

211
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: of guys that work on them every day and get

212
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 1: their thoughts and their opinions. So, if you're in the

213
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 1: market for a Toyota Hybrid, because that's where this conversation

214
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: started about buying cars, um, we're gonna talk about that

215
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 1: this hour. But I am here at nine zero to

216
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 1: take your calls and answer your questions, and we're gonna return.

217
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: We're gonna open the garage doors and go right to it.

218
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: Stay tuned. I'll be right Backbuybuy, look at Frosty Go.

219
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back of the car Doctor. By the way, tom, Um,

220
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: can I have off in two weeks? Maybe a coda Tony.

221
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,839
Speaker 1: Do you think we should give him any time off? No?

222
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,440
Speaker 1: Because I you know the fact guy in the red

223
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 1: suit keeps calling me something about putting a sleigh together,

224
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 1: and you know, yeah, again, we gotta go through this

225
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: drama that last year. Well I got through it every year.

226
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:58,679
Speaker 1: You know it's it's it's listen. Are you giving them

227
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 1: a voteswagon? No? No, no, Santa has been good. Are

228
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: you gonna be taking the vage wagon out of the

229
00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,319
Speaker 1: bags for the so he doesn't drop them off to

230
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 1: people's houses? See you guys, you guys don't understand. Volkswagen

231
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: is the president of choice for those not on the

232
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,920
Speaker 1: good list. Oh now we we well we we We

233
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:18,840
Speaker 1: thought those people actually got Cleveland brown stuff. No, no, no,

234
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,760
Speaker 1: no no. The people below you see, and the people

235
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 1: below the Volkswagen people, they get season tickets to the

236
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 1: Jets games. Let's go over and open the phone lines.

237
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 1: Let's go over and open the phone lines. Ouch. And

238
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: I used to be I used to be a Jets fan.

239
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:34,719
Speaker 1: They used to have a football team. I third I

240
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,320
Speaker 1: heard somewhere. Let's go and talk to Richard and Hastings, Michigan. Richard,

241
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 1: welcome to the car doctor s or just goofing around?

242
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,120
Speaker 1: How can I help you today? Oh? I'm just listening

243
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 1: to you. Um I got a two thousand two Shivy

244
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:51,880
Speaker 1: UH three quarter ton heavy duty UH truck pick up

245
00:12:52,520 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: and I'm having trouble with the brakes. I did a

246
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: complete break job. And before I did the break job,

247
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: I had this problem when you come up to a

248
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: stop sign and just before you get ready to stop,

249
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: it goes rear and then it jerks you off to

250
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 1: the right. Something with the A B S. I know that, yes, yes,

251
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: and and the way. Okay, so what what what what's

252
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 1: happening is you're getting a false ABS event. Did you

253
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: have the problem before the brake repair? Yes, I did.

254
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 1: That's why I thought. Well, I put it in my

255
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: garage and put it up on the hoist, pull the

256
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: wheels off, and I looked at the brakes. I said,

257
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:38,000
Speaker 1: m yes, break job on it. You know, regular breakes

258
00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:40,319
Speaker 1: and and and and the way I tell everybody if

259
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 1: you want to verify, um, you know, if if you

260
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:44,840
Speaker 1: want to verify, improve it to yourself. It's an A

261
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 1: B S event. Although it sounds like it is because

262
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,920
Speaker 1: you're you know, you're kind of getting that. It's it's

263
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: it's it's like you're driving on a washboard road effect. Correct, Yeah, okay,

264
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 1: you know the way if if you want to prove

265
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: it to yourself, then go find one of the A

266
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 1: B S sensors. And you know what I was gonna

267
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 1: say was disconnect one, disconnect one. Just disconnect it disconnected

268
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 1: and the problem will go away. And I'm not saying that.

269
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that as a as a permanent solution.

270
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: I'm saying, if you want to try an inexpensive method

271
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,320
Speaker 1: to proof to yourself that you're you're right in chasing

272
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 1: A B S, then disconnecting the sensor will then put

273
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: the system into bypass and and prevent A B S

274
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: from working. So then it will function with just regular breaks.

275
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: Knowing that once you do that, and and you can

276
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: then sit there and say, you know, hey, it's it's

277
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,280
Speaker 1: it's it's now normal breaks, and you know for sure

278
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: at that stage it's it's an A B S problem.

279
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: Then we can have the conversation about you know, looking

280
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 1: at wheel speed sensors and and and so forth, because

281
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 1: they are notorious. What you're going through is very notorious. Now,

282
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: if you have the ability before you disconnect that A

283
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,280
Speaker 1: B S sensor, I don't know if you do. If

284
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,120
Speaker 1: you have a scan tool, it would be nice if

285
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: you could scan and see do you have any fault codes?

286
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: Do you have a two sixty nine or two seventy

287
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: four or anything like that? A BS censor related? Okay,

288
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: anything in there has a grade. You couldn't find nothing wrong? Okay, Well,

289
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 1: but did he scan did he scan the A B

290
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,280
Speaker 1: S control module or did he did he scan the

291
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: E C N underneath? Okay? And which module did he

292
00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: go into? And how many? Okay? Well, because the problem

293
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: may not be in the censor. The problem maybe in

294
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 1: the air gap that the censor rides against. That's that's

295
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: underneath the censor, inside the wheel hub, the area, the area,

296
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: the area where the censors were, Ye are they rusty? Um?

297
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: I cleaned them all off? Okay, right, But now the

298
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: problem is is one higher or lower than the other

299
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:09,040
Speaker 1: in reference to the tone ring? Right? See? The issue

300
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 1: is the issue is that the height of the sensor

301
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:17,080
Speaker 1: away from the too thring has to be the same

302
00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: side to side and front to back, and if it's different,

303
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: it will produce a slightly different signal. That Well, the

304
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,720
Speaker 1: first thing you've got to do is right, The easiest

305
00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 1: way is I would I would crack out of This

306
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: is a case where and I don't say it often,

307
00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 1: but I would crack out a lab scope and I

308
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 1: would I would put a signal trace up of each

309
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: sensor and lay him out against themselves. You're not gonna

310
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,200
Speaker 1: be able to catch You're not gonna be able to

311
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:49,560
Speaker 1: catch the sensors fast enough on a scan tool. No

312
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: scan tools fast enough. You need to look at this

313
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: on a lab scope. You're looking at the size of

314
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:58,200
Speaker 1: the signal and the frequency of of it, of it

315
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:02,440
Speaker 1: crossing its center line, amplitude and size. As they say,

316
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 1: all right, now, after I did my brakes and stuff,

317
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 1: the wife and I took UH truck and we went

318
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: for about oh over there and back for about a

319
00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: hundred miles, and it was fine. And as I was

320
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: pulling UH with my pickup, and as I was pulling

321
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,960
Speaker 1: back down my little road here, I was going real slow.

322
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 1: My A B S light come on, My brake light

323
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:28,159
Speaker 1: come on, and I pulled into my driveway and I

324
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 1: had brakes, and then so I shut it off and

325
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 1: let us set her a few minutes, turned back on,

326
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: and the a BS went off and the brake light

327
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 1: went off. Have you scanned it since then? Okay, scan it?

328
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,760
Speaker 1: There may be something in there. You've got you you've

329
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 1: got an A B S issue going on, Richard, It's

330
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: that simple. Do you understand? You understand? Do you understand

331
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 1: what I mean when I say an A B S? Event? Yep?

332
00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: The computer, the computer thinks one of the wheels front

333
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 1: or back is approaching lock up? All right? Now, where's uh?

334
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 1: Is there a A B S censor on the back

335
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: there there? There should be. It's either I don't believe

336
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,080
Speaker 1: it's going to be single. I don't believe this is

337
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,080
Speaker 1: a four wheel censor vehicle. This is a sensor in

338
00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 1: the left and the right front and a sensor in

339
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 1: the differential. They're picking it up off of a sensor

340
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: in the differential. As far as lock up for the rear, generally,

341
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,160
Speaker 1: that's how they do it now. Two thousand two later

342
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 1: on they went to a four channel system. But I

343
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 1: don't think that's the way you have it. So you'll

344
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 1: have to crawl into the truck and see what sensors

345
00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: you have and then work backwards from there. But when

346
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: you scope at a four channel scope, looking at three

347
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,879
Speaker 1: or four sensors would be the ideal way to go.

348
00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,680
Speaker 1: Do that? Give me a call back? Zero nine zero

349
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: Parlan's Seagull of Launch is coming up next. Stay tuned.

350
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 1: One of the things about my favorite time of year,

351
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:04,640
Speaker 1: this being my favorite time of your Hello, welcome Ron

352
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 1: and Atying the car Doctor, by the way, is my

353
00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 1: next segment. I love talking to this man. He's one

354
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: of the smartest guys out there UM in the industry

355
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,080
Speaker 1: today and UM I put a lot of pressure on

356
00:19:14,119 --> 00:19:16,159
Speaker 1: him and he always comes through with good answers and

357
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: good information when it comes to scan tools. This guy

358
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,719
Speaker 1: knows what's going on. Harlan Siegel of Launch Harlem, Welcome back, sir.

359
00:19:21,760 --> 00:19:24,919
Speaker 1: How are you very good? Ron? Thank you for having me.

360
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:28,119
Speaker 1: You know, how's UM? How's things over at launched? This year?

361
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,440
Speaker 1: You guys have been very busy and setting the industry

362
00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:32,880
Speaker 1: on its on its collective hear what's new over there?

363
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,439
Speaker 1: Actually quite quite a bit we had so far and

364
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 1: the year still still hot. Over an exciting year. Introduction

365
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: of new products, UH, new new horizons, new distribution. We

366
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: received a Frost and Sullivan Award for Value Leadership. A

367
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,959
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of positive things are moving us

368
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,199
Speaker 1: forward the UM. You know. One of the things you

369
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,080
Speaker 1: did this year, and you're the only ones that I

370
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,800
Speaker 1: have seemed to do this is the X four thirty

371
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,000
Speaker 1: one pro the new smaller tablet am I saying that, right, Harlan,

372
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 1: the is at the nine inch or the ten inch

373
00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 1: whatever size that screen is. I you know, I mean

374
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: I'm uh eight inch? Okay? Um. The O B D

375
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:20,199
Speaker 1: two software that's in there, you're the only guys that

376
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: actually tell you if the you know, the information you're

377
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 1: looking at when you're looking at that a stream, If

378
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: if what you're seeing, if you know, if engine RPM

379
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,119
Speaker 1: is is eleven hundred at IDLE and it's supposed to

380
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 1: be eight hundred, you flag it and read and give us, Hey,

381
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 1: here's the spec, here's what we're here's here's the generic

382
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 1: what we're looking for what it should be, which is

383
00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,280
Speaker 1: very handy. Um, you know, how do you do that?

384
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,919
Speaker 1: Where do you come up with that? Absolutely? Well, what

385
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 1: we actually are using are the protocol guidelines for for

386
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,679
Speaker 1: the range expectations, and when it either exceeds that or

387
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,920
Speaker 1: is at the below the minimal level, we will flag

388
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:03,159
Speaker 1: that red. And it's great for all markets because you

389
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 1: know it will alert you to something that you know,

390
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 1: you may be looking for a particular pit particular you know,

391
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: reading and you're scrolling through screens in the red allows

392
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 1: to It basically alerts you to something that you might

393
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 1: have missed, especially when we get into you know, more

394
00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:20,880
Speaker 1: of you know d I Y user. It certainly helps

395
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,000
Speaker 1: out quite a bit. Oh yeah, well, you know, and

396
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: listen even for the non DI I Y what what what?

397
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 1: The first experience I had with it was I was

398
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 1: using it on a Toyota that I had a UM

399
00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 1: I had a catalytic converter fault code issue going on,

400
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: and I'm going through O B D two and I'm

401
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,440
Speaker 1: looking at it and I didn't notice it the first

402
00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 1: pass through but one bank, and it turned out to

403
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 1: be the bank that I was worried about. The cat

404
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: on had to higher than normal fuel trim, and so

405
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: you know, it was like bank to bank one was

406
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,480
Speaker 1: five percent and bank to was. But when you're scrolling

407
00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:59,160
Speaker 1: by pits or whatever the number is, you don't tend

408
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 1: to notice. You're trying to get everything. That red caught

409
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: my eye and I went, wait a minute, why is

410
00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:05,680
Speaker 1: that one read? And then all of a sudden I

411
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: realized what you were doing. You're you're flagging at forest

412
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 1: that it's out of scale. It tracked it down. There

413
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 1: was a vacuum like there was a tiny little vacuum

414
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 1: hose off and had it not been for you know,

415
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 1: I mean I would have gotten it eventually. There's you know,

416
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:21,400
Speaker 1: you're you're getting deeper into the each solution, each problem.

417
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,600
Speaker 1: But the fact that it flagged it in red just

418
00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 1: made life so much easier for me. I said, why

419
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: isn't somebody Why hasn't somebody done this up till now?

420
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: I was. I was stunned. Um, uh, just just making

421
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: it easier. Will that software design or intention does that

422
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: follow over into your other scan tools as well? Will

423
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 1: it has it? It does on the professional line, So

424
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 1: the you're talking about the X four one pro I

425
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 1: Android eight inch said, we came out mid year this

426
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,359
Speaker 1: year as well as the larger units similar some of

427
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: the products which is in a ten point one inch,

428
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: it does it on that as well, is on the

429
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,760
Speaker 1: pad two. Yeah. Um, definitely clearly UM the way to

430
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,880
Speaker 1: go in terms of making it easier for all of us.

431
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,080
Speaker 1: And then from the d I wires perspective, Harlan, Um,

432
00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:14,960
Speaker 1: you know, what do they have to look forward to

433
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: from launch? If I can, you know, it's the holidays

434
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 1: and everybody's looking for some last minute gift ideas. Is

435
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,679
Speaker 1: there anything you know under five bucks? What can what

436
00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:24,639
Speaker 1: can the listeners go look for? If somebody out there

437
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: is on their list as a mechanic want to be

438
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:28,199
Speaker 1: in Uh, they're looking for a tool. What a you

439
00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,240
Speaker 1: got in the grab bag? Actually we have we have

440
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: some really good offerings at some wonderful price points. Uh,

441
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 1: you know, starting at what we call the cee reader

442
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: five plus at uh is a list price, and that's

443
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 1: going to give that's going to give the user complete

444
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 1: access to generic O B D two so that would

445
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 1: be all makes and models, doesn't matter. And it's going

446
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 1: to give him a color screen, uh, two point four

447
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,440
Speaker 1: in screen. It will be able to graph. It's it's

448
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 1: one graph, multi language. And also I am readiness monitors,

449
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: so so you know, and a nice little package for

450
00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: on the seventy dollars is a wonderful stocking stuff. But

451
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 1: that is a stocking stuffer. Well, you know, I think

452
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,439
Speaker 1: part of the issue is and tell me where your

453
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 1: thoughts are on this. We just had a call previously

454
00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,080
Speaker 1: from a gentleman who was working on an A B

455
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,840
Speaker 1: S problem. I think part of the problem is everybody

456
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 1: assumes you plug in as he put it. He said, well,

457
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,480
Speaker 1: he plugged into the connector under the dash and did

458
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: to come up with any codes. And my question was,

459
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,440
Speaker 1: now he had an A B S problem. My question

460
00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 1: was is he looking at the A B S module

461
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,560
Speaker 1: Just because you plug in under the dash doesn't mean

462
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: you're getting all the information. And you know, I think

463
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: your solution, because I've noticed you do it, um among

464
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: the professional side, as you'll allow us to plug in

465
00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: and run something called a quick test, and that polls

466
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,880
Speaker 1: p O l ls, you know, pulls all the modules

467
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: on the vehicle and asks for code information and who's

468
00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:00,679
Speaker 1: got what where, and then that transformed then allows us

469
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: you know. So, so in his case, he would have

470
00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 1: gone and plugged in, found an A B S fault

471
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 1: code in theory, and then gone right to that system.

472
00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 1: And you've you've kind of made it a shortcut and

473
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 1: you've made it quicker to get into the diagnostic routine. Um.

474
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,639
Speaker 1: One of the things I find, and I don't know

475
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: what you're experiencing, is a lot of people tend to

476
00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 1: overlook O B D two. You know, O B D

477
00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 1: two is there, You've got to use that, and then

478
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 1: manufacturer specific, you've you've got to use that as well. Correct, absolutely,

479
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 1: and uh, actually I'm glad you're bringing that up because

480
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: that is a popular call we get into our call center.

481
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 1: Because so many times it goes both ways. You know,

482
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,479
Speaker 1: somebody may be using a an hand scan tool always

483
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 1: specific like our professional line and uh and and and

484
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 1: there may not be any codes yet. If you plug

485
00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:52,920
Speaker 1: in what one would understand as a less expensive generic

486
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: code reader or the generic software that's in all of

487
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 1: our pro line tools, a code appears because their base

488
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:03,200
Speaker 1: really like two sides of a wall, and they don't

489
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 1: necessarily share anything. I mean, they could, but it's not

490
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: a guarantee. So you could have you know, a a

491
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: generic code we'll call it, you know, like for example,

492
00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: an engine or powertrain, a P zero code will come

493
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 1: out on a generic side, and uh and and and

494
00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 1: then it would be a P one code maybe even

495
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,040
Speaker 1: similar on inn hand side, but not necessarily show back

496
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,359
Speaker 1: up on the generic He actually need to access both,

497
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,239
Speaker 1: you know, at at a higher level, and you just

498
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,399
Speaker 1: it's come to the point where if you're d I wire,

499
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: you've gotta be able to get into the system. You know.

500
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,760
Speaker 1: Tom tells me the story about his daughter and her

501
00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: her escape when she has. She does little things when

502
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: she's away at school and she doesn't know and she'll

503
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 1: plug and read the code or Tom, you know, she'll

504
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 1: come home and Tom will read the code. A guy

505
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,159
Speaker 1: like Tom or a person, and you need the ability

506
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: to read the code. But then the professional needs the

507
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 1: ability to read codes, to look at O B D two,

508
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: to look at manufacturer specific and to look at system

509
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: modules because the electron it's cure only growing in size,

510
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:05,000
Speaker 1: and in terms of these cars today, it's it's not shrinking,

511
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 1: and it's it's gonna be just ever so much more

512
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: in the future going down the road, where do you see, Harlem,

513
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:12,439
Speaker 1: if I can get you to just you know, and

514
00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 1: I know there's some things you can't talk about, but

515
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:17,720
Speaker 1: if you were to predict two years from now, where

516
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: will scan tools be, where will we be? Will we

517
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:23,919
Speaker 1: be bluetooth wireless in the car, not going to an

518
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:25,840
Speaker 1: O B D two connector, but just connecting to something

519
00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 1: behind the dashboard by a bluetooth method. Do you think, um,

520
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,080
Speaker 1: do you see the point where it's you know, what's

521
00:27:32,119 --> 00:27:36,000
Speaker 1: the next evolution of scan tool gonna look like? Uh, yeah,

522
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:40,239
Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's that's a constant engineering discussion, you know,

523
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 1: and and and the concerns of of wireless you know,

524
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: have to do with uh, you know, with the recent

525
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 1: noise of hacking and and and how that can be

526
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: fire world and and and to protect both the you know,

527
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 1: the controllers in the vehicle and also the you know,

528
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 1: the customer and their safety. So that that's always been

529
00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 1: a big question, is the security the through wireless UH

530
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:05,159
Speaker 1: communication being Bluetooth. But yet at the same time, you know,

531
00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,880
Speaker 1: there's discussions on a WiFi I mean, when you get

532
00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:10,879
Speaker 1: into some o E tools today, you know they're working

533
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,640
Speaker 1: on WiFi communications. And then of course there's also discussions

534
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,080
Speaker 1: maybe of a future state Ethernet where you plug in

535
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: an Ethernet cable into UH into a pot on on

536
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 1: the vehicle that might someday, let's say, replace UH possibly

537
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,720
Speaker 1: what was what is the current sixteen pin you know,

538
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,360
Speaker 1: because because we all know that, you know that sixteen

539
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:35,119
Speaker 1: pin has been around since the early eighties and it

540
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 1: never was designed or actually not the sixteen pin originally

541
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 1: was it was a five pin but uh, but since

542
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 1: nineties to sixteen pin was never meant to carry the

543
00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 1: information that we're doing today with these can systems. And

544
00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 1: seventy two hundred plus UH computers talking together on the

545
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,000
Speaker 1: same line that that that was that never was thought

546
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 1: to be so so so change is inevitable. It's going

547
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: to happen absolutely Yeah. Well, and you guys will be

548
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 1: right at the tip of it. Um, you know, real quick.

549
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 1: I have to tell you that the way you update

550
00:29:06,080 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 1: amazes me each and every time. Every time I turn

551
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 1: on my launch tool every morning, there's another update for

552
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: another application. Zip zip. It's very nice as a professional

553
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,480
Speaker 1: to know that I'm working with the most current updated

554
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,480
Speaker 1: software available to me. Um, you know. And it's a

555
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: simple flick of the button and turn it on and

556
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: download and off I go to work. Hey, Harlan, listen,

557
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,120
Speaker 1: if the listeners want to get more information about launched product,

558
00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:33,080
Speaker 1: give me the website www dot launch tech us dot com.

559
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 1: That's l A U N C H T e C

560
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:41,320
Speaker 1: H USA dot com and you've got uh information sheets,

561

Speaker 1: even some videos and everything you need to know. And listen.

562
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 1: By the way, we should point that we'll talk about

563
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: this next time. I want to get you on in

564
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 1: the spring when we start thinking about tires. But that

565
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: tp MS tool of yours is just is just it's

566
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 1: it's an it's an underrated um sensation. It just works

567
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 1: so well. So we'll talk about that next time around.

568
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: A right, buddy, I do appreciate it didn't thanks so much,

569
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: run very well. I like what you're doing. Thank you, sir.

570
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: You take good care and we'll talk to you again

571
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:08,760
Speaker 1: real soon. Eight five five zero zero zero. I am

572
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,240
Speaker 1: Ron and any of the Car Doctor, and I'll be

573
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: back to talk to Tim and Michigan right after this.

574
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: You get in car Welcome back. We're on the end

575
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: of the Car Doctor rolling along here, Elvis included. Let's

576
00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 1: get over and talk to Tim and Michigan. Tim, Welcome

577
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,360
Speaker 1: to the Car Doctor, sir. How can I help Hi? Ron?

578
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,400
Speaker 1: My name is Tim from Michigan. How are you, sir?

579
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:55,560
Speaker 1: What's going on? Good? I have a two thousand three

580
00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:00,320
Speaker 1: Honda Civic Lex. About six weeks ago, I you know,

581
00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 1: I noticed that um my hub cap had braked us

582
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: all over it. So I went ahead and changed the

583
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 1: front brakes on both sides and the rotors, and uh,

584
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 1: I noticed that there was some rubbing on the right

585
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 1: side and it wasn't like a metal grinding. It just

586
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,000
Speaker 1: sounded like almost like a deep like a rubber hitting

587
00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 1: something at a rubber. UM. So I took everything back

588
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 1: off and I checked the brakes and everything everything looked great.

589
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: Um uh checked the uh you know, make sure everything

590
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,960
Speaker 1: was sprayed off and cleaned off real good. Um didn't

591
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:35,719
Speaker 1: look like anywhere in tear on it. So I couldn't

592
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 1: understand what the rubber has come from. Made sure that

593
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: the brakes shield wasn't rubbing against the tire. But it

594
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: keeps happening. And so finally what I did is I

595
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 1: just kind of broke down wint to a mechanic and uh,

596
00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 1: you know, I had them listen to it. They took

597
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 1: everything off and they looked at the hubbarring and they said, no,

598
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:54,360
Speaker 1: it looks good and the hubbarring looks straight. Took it

599
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 1: for a drive, couldn't hear anything, and uh, I picked

600
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 1: it back up, and I was I haven't around over

601
00:32:00,840 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: the weekend. I heard it again. It's almost as if

602
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: once it gets hot after driving it you that's when

603
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 1: you hear the sound only when you're trying to break

604
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: What was the noise there prior to the break work?

605
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 1: Tim it was and I just figured it was just

606
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: because the brake pads were low, so the noise medals medal.

607
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,360
Speaker 1: So the noise was there prior to the breakework. Doing

608
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: the breakwork had no effect on it. It's still as

609
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 1: consistent or inconsistent as it was before. Absolutely no visible

610
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,920
Speaker 1: you know, no no visible play and in the hub

611
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 1: or the bearing anything like that, and none at all.

612
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,400
Speaker 1: In fact, they said, look great, and so I would

613
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: have had and had to replace the hub bearing. Um,

614
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 1: and we thought that was gonna fix it on the

615
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,239
Speaker 1: passing side. However, the noise is still there, and so

616
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: I dropped it back off from now they're saying it's

617
00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: it sounds like a bearing in the transmission. Okay, Well

618
00:32:56,200 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 1: before we go there, how are they coming to this conclusion? Um?

619
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: Are they? Are they listening to it driving and on

620
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 1: a lift with the stethoscope? Yes they are, okay, So

621
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 1: because he said, was listening to it? All right? So yeah,

622
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: and maybe it isn't Maybe it is a noise in

623
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: in the transmission. Let me explain the way I would

624
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 1: do this if it was at the shop, if I

625
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: had it up in the air, it would be because

626
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: a road test will just tell me there's a noise.

627
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: That doesn't tell me where the noise is. So in

628
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 1: the shop. It's Danny, give me twenty hard. Twenty hard?

629
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 1: Is I want a quick acceleration in twenty miles and

630
00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 1: I'm listening, what's the rate of acceleration? Is the buzz

631
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: from the left wheel or the right wheel? If I

632
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:41,440
Speaker 1: hear it in the right, the next thing I'm gonna

633
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:45,680
Speaker 1: do is stop the left front wheel. Sometimes I'll put

634
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: a screw driver in a caliper and to hold it

635
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 1: or just wedge something in there. Hold it. Drive the

636
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 1: right Do I still hear the noise? Yes? Okay, stop

637
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: the right front wheel. Let the left front spin. Do

638
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,880
Speaker 1: I still hear the noise? Yes? Okay. Then it's not

639
00:34:00,160 --> 00:34:02,760
Speaker 1: the right front bearing, it's not the left front bearing.

640
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,640
Speaker 1: It's got to be in the trans at that point

641
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: because that's the only thing spinning that's still constant. Did

642
00:34:09,040 --> 00:34:12,320
Speaker 1: that make sense to you? So you know, if they

643
00:34:12,360 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 1: if they've gone through that, then I'm up against the

644
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: clock here, tim, someonena have to rush. But if they've

645
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 1: gone through that, then yeah, then I would say it

646
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,719
Speaker 1: is in the trans um. But ask them if this

647
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,879
Speaker 1: doesn't fix it, where would they go next? And how

648
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: sure are they? Because internal trans noises are going to

649
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 1: get to be very expensive. Before they do it, ask them, Hey,

650
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 1: how did you break this down? Or are we guessing?

651
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 1: And we'll kind of go from there. Let's talk next week.

652
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: I'm up against the clock, alright, buddy, alright, Tim, take

653
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,600
Speaker 1: good care. I'll be running any in the car doctor,

654
00:34:39,640 --> 00:35:08,879
Speaker 1: I'll be back right after this. Welcome back, aren't any

655
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 1: of the car doctor. Let's do a cook piece of email. Hey, Ron,

656
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: I listened to you regularly on w v O M

657
00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: the Voice of Main. I know where that is one

658
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 1: or three point nine. I appreciated your help with getting

659
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: a manual from my Trailblazer recently. That being said, I'm

660
00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,719
Speaker 1: considering replacing my current vehicle and wondering if there are

661
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:24,640
Speaker 1: any cars that are being sold that are not so

662
00:35:24,760 --> 00:35:27,120
Speaker 1: full of electronics so that if you lose power, you

663
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: can't even roll down a window of the basic way

664
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 1: to contact me during my work schedule via email or podcast.

665
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:36,800
Speaker 1: Thanks Richard. Um, No, you know that's the problem. Everything

666
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:39,400
Speaker 1: is so full of electronics today that you just simply

667
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: can't get away from it. Uh. The only thing being

668
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:44,879
Speaker 1: sold is that is that sixty two dodged dart on Craigslist.

669
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: Um with crankdown windows in a straight six and a carburetor.

670
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 1: But other than that, everything is just so overloaded and

671
00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: overladen with scan tools that are with electronics that you

672
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: just can't you can't get away from it. As as

673
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,600
Speaker 1: tough as that is to understand, and I get it. Um,

674
00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:01,880
Speaker 1: it makes we wonder how long can you keep a car?

675
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 1: Somebody asked me this question day, Hey, Ron, how long

676
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,000
Speaker 1: can I reasonably expect to keep a car? My answer

677
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,359
Speaker 1: used to be until you're tired of fixing it. Now

678
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 1: my answer is until the manufacturer stops making software for

679
00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:15,879
Speaker 1: it and phases it out, just like Windows does with

680
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: Expo and the three point whatever and so on and

681
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 1: so forth. So um, it's gonna be all software changes

682
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,280
Speaker 1: that caused the minse of the car, not the hardware.

683
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:26,239
Speaker 1: So hey, that about wraps it up this hour. I'm

684
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:27,920
Speaker 1: run on any of The Card Doctor. By the way,
