It's it's it's seven dollars more. I 38 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: don't really care about the seven dollars. I figured I 39 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 1: was being charged the premium for something that I just 40 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: don't have the time.

We had an eleven Toyota c NA. You know, 83 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,000 Speaker 1: you guys go out, you buy these new cars and 84 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: you think they're the latest and the greatest and the 85 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: best innovation, and how wonderful everything is. Right. Harry Nadler, 86 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: Harry Nadler is probably dead ten years now. He was 87 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: my first landlord. And I can use his name. There's 88 00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: no more family relatives names. It's it's Harry was an 89 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: interesting guy who was a Chevy dealer here in New Jersey. 90 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: He was he was a first lieutenant, third wave at EWO. 91 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 1: He used to tell me the stories about the invasions 92 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,560 Speaker 1: and collect his check and just he was, you know, 93 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: he was. He was a crotchety old guy, but he 94 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:44,040 Speaker 1: was interesting to listen to. He always had good comments 95 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 1: and good things to say. And I remember him telling 96 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,480 Speaker 1: me the story about before the war, his father had 97 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: a Ford dealership in downtown Brooklyn, New York, and one 98 00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: of the cars they took in trade in night was 99 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:01,280 Speaker 1: a Duisenberg and Harry worked at the dealership doing car 100 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: wash and clean up around the lot, and he saved 101 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: his money and he bought this Duisenberg for probably at 102 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: the time was an unheard of some of five or 103 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 1: three hundred dollars, whatever the number was. Harry said it was. 104 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: It was astounding. He says, when used cars were a 105 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty bucks, this Duisenberg was three or four 106 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: hundred dollars. And he said, and I had to have 107 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: it. It It was something on that magnitude. He said, it 108 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: was the neatest thing I'd ever seen. And I drove 109 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: around in this Duisenberg, and then the war broke out, 110 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: and he said, I don't want my Dusenburg. I don't 111 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 1: want to sell it. I don't know what to do 112 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,799 Speaker 1: with it. So I took it all apart. I packed 113 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: it up in Cosmoline and boxed it all up in 114 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 1: my parents garage, and I went off the war. Now 115 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 1: he got back from the war, this is around forty 116 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 1: six or forty seven, and he bumped into this guy 117 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 1: he tells you the story of the Federal Courthouse downtown Manhattan. 118 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: He bumped into this guy that he had seen prior 119 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: to leaving for the war, and he had been after 120 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: Harry to sell him the Duisenberg before the war. And 121 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: now he was still Hey, Harry, you know he still 122 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 1: had that Dusenberg. I'd love to get it. Yeah, it's 123 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 1: all packed up. He said, I'll give you two thousand 124 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: dollars for it. Eight unseen. Two thousand dollars in seven 125 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 1: was a ton of dough. And you know, Harry said, 126 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: I said, I figured that the market had peaked. I'd 127 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: never get more than that for it. I sold him 128 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: the car. That has nothing to do with my point, 129 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,160 Speaker 1: but I just thought, uh, I just thought I would 130 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: tell you that that, you know, crazy things happened cosmoline. 131 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: Tom wants to know. It's a It's a preservative to 132 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: help keep metal parts from rustling. So the whole car 133 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: was coded in that so it wouldn't rust Harry sells 134 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: him the Dusenberg for two grand and I said, Harry, 135 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: what's your point? He says, My point is that things 136 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: never really changed. They just come around full circle. Somehow 137 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 1: we got onto this conversation, right, and he said, there's 138 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: really nothing new about cars. He says, Dusenberg had fuel injection, 139 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: Dusenberg had disc brakes. Dusenberg was ahead of its time, 140 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: and then they just reinvented it in the seventies, the 141 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: eighties and nineties and so on. And I think Harry 142 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: was gone by two thousand one, and that's as far 143 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: as he went. He was ninety three when he passed. 144 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: But I never forgot that that. I never forgot the 145 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: Dusenberg story because it Duisenberg today, I I'm gonna make 146 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: a fool of myself. I think a Duisenberg is worth 147 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: well over a million dollars, and they might be worth more. 148 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: There's they're just they're just astounding automobiles. But every time 149 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:15,239 Speaker 1: I see something like I saw on this eleven Toyota Sienna, 150 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: I think a Harry Nadler and eleven CNA came into 151 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 1: the shop this week and the driver's sliding door, you 152 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,920 Speaker 1: know the sliding doors, the left and right sliding doors. 153 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 1: The sliding door on the left side driver's side didn't work. 154 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 1: And there's a cable hanging down, just this long metal cable, 155 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: and we looked at it. You ever go into a 156 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 1: house from the forties and look at the windows. It's 157 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: a pulley and trolley system right with weights that you know, 158 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: hang on the cable and it pulls it and it 159 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: helps you open and close the window. There's a metal 160 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: waiting there, the old style windows. That's what this eleven 161 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: c N is using. They've got a double ended cable 162 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: pulley system that retracts and and and contracts and expands 163 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: and and and it's it's constantly pulling on itself to 164 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: open and close the door. You know, a seventy five 165 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 1: dollar part, and and in too many hours of labor 166 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: to take everything apart and put it together. And you 167 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: say to yourself, and this is a sixty vehicle, and 168 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: yet we buy these things in the droves and everybody 169 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: goes rushing down there and goes oh and all over 170 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 1: the next shiny penny until it breaks. And I couldn't 171 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: help but think of Harry now there. They really haven't 172 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 1: invented anything new. They've just taken everything that they've invented 173 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 1: in the past hundred years and they somehow applied it 174 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,320 Speaker 1: to a newer car. And they've made us all think 175 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: that it's new, and they've made it all think that 176 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: it's something they've recreated, but in fact it was probably 177 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 1: on a Dusenberg. I don't know if they had a 178 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: pulley system to open and close doors on a Dusenberg, 179 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: but I think a Harry. Now that when uh when 180 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: I when I think about that, and Tom's telling me 181 00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 1: a twenty nine Dusenberg is worth almost one million dollars 182 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: probably Tom probably probably worth at least a million bucks today. 183 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: And all I can say is I'm glad Harry's gone. 184 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,319 Speaker 1: Because we knew that car he sold for two grand 185 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: and forty seven was worth a million bucks. It would 186 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: kill him, and um, that would be a terrible thing. 187 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,439 Speaker 1: He was an interesting guy, he really was. Third Way 188 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: video Jima. I'll never forget the stories, and uh, rest 189 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: in peace, Harry. Let's kick the garage doors open. I 190 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: am Ron, and any in the car doctor. When I 191 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: return eight five five five zero zero, We're gonna do 192 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: just that. Don't you go away. We'll be back right 193 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: after this time. Right it on the wall, so you 194 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,559 Speaker 1: don't forget to call for a car advice done right? 195 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: Eight five five five six zero nine zero zero. Now 196 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: back to row. Let's go to Joan ver Mont eighty seven, 197 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: Jeep Cherokee and him Mileage wants to talk about that 198 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: a little bit, Joe. Welcome to the car doctor, sir. 199 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: How can I help? Hey? Ron? How are you this 200 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: fine day? I am great, sir, I am really great. 201 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 1: What's going on? Well, I just wanted to give a call. 202 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: I I listened to your show every week and I 203 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: drive in eight seven jeep Cherokee. It's my daily vehicle 204 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,959 Speaker 1: up here in Salt Country. And the body is as 205 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: solid as the day to roll off the assembly line, 206 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: probably because you probably could. You keep after it and 207 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 1: take care of it. Undercoated with automatic transmission, fluid and 208 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: chain saw a bar oil every other year. Yep, yep, yep. Yeah, 209 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: you can't. You can't do that down here because um 210 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 1: it's it's bad for the environment, or so they say. So. Well, 211 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: they actually have a state sanctioned stationed down um by Rutland, Vermont, 212 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: um where you drive in, they put you up on 213 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: a lift, they do all the undercoating, you drive out 214 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: the back, and they request that you drive down the 215 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,960 Speaker 1: dirt road, which is about twelve miles long. Oh so 216 00:10:55,120 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: common sense? Yeah, wow, what a concept. Well, when you 217 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: get in Debt, when you get into downtown, they usually 218 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 1: have it on the muffler by then. So you're sitting 219 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: at a stop light and there's smoke coming out and 220 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 1: people are looking at you and you just kind of 221 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: wave at them. Well, and you know, to the point, 222 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 1: you know my opening comments about Harry Nadler, when Harry 223 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,240 Speaker 1: said to me, he goes round. They never really invent 224 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,439 Speaker 1: anything new with cards. They just recreate and market something 225 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: they created, you know, years ago. And and to that point, 226 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: you know, they've got to create something new because if 227 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 1: we made cars really last, think of all the jobs 228 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: that would be lost. Think of all the industry that 229 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 1: we wouldn't have, Think of all the things that we wouldn't. 230 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: You know, there'd be no marketing, no advertising. It wouldn't 231 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: be it wouldn't be the way it is. It's it's 232 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:45,920 Speaker 1: become so uh you know, it's it's it's gotten ridiculous, 233 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: is what it happens. It really is a throwaway society. 234 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: You know. I feel guilty. I bought a um, I'm 235 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: gonna say the name wrong, a brevel, a bevel toaster. 236 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: It's a four sliced toaster, gorgeous toaster. It's about four 237 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: years now. Um, it's computerized. I couldn't help it. It It 238 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: was kind of needed so you can set the dials 239 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: and you know, and it made perfect toast. Breml. I 240 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 1: gotta look at the name now when I get when 241 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: I get home, I gotta look in the kitchen and 242 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:13,559 Speaker 1: just this morning, I was making an English monfrien. You know, 243 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: you want that English moment to come out nice and 244 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: golden brown. It's starting, it's starting to lose that. The 245 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: setting is starting to lose its adjustment. After four years, 246 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, God, don't tell me I had to 247 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: throw my toaster away. I'm gonna have to figure out 248 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 1: how to fix it. I'll take it apart and and 249 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:28,439 Speaker 1: and and make it work because I don't want it 250 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: to be a throwaway society. I don't want to throw 251 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: a toaster. I don't want to throw away a car. 252 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 1: Even though they have a lot of the same characteristics. 253 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: They're both appliances and they're both becoming throwaway items. And 254 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: it's it's it's the honest truth. Uh. You know? Is 255 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 1: that jeep a stick or and automatic? Automatic? Yeah? And 256 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: it's still got it's got two or two miles on it? 257 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,760 Speaker 1: Four leader or four what was it in eighty seven, Joe? 258 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: Is it a four leader or four point two? Four? Straight? Right? Yeah? Okay? 259 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: And you know why they got rid of that engine 260 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: because it'll go to one of health and they'll go 261 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,839 Speaker 1: that that engine will go five thousand miles. The only 262 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,719 Speaker 1: thing that ever goes wrong with those is if you 263 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: don't do enough cooling system maintenance. They go through head 264 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: gaskets and maybe once in a while crack ahead, But 265 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 1: other than that, the bottom ends on those things are indestructible. 266 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,439 Speaker 1: And if that has the if that has the Aisan 267 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 1: automatic transmission, I think seventeen pan bolts, the long rectangular 268 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: pan bolt trans Uh. We never rebuilt. They just don't 269 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: go bad. They just lasted forever, they really did. You 270 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,599 Speaker 1: just couldn't abuse them to the point to break them. 271 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: And you know, in eight seven those vehicles just we're 272 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: doing so well. And then by the mid nineties Jeep 273 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: and re engineered things to the point that they changed engines, 274 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: they changed trans is, and it was it was the 275 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,599 Speaker 1: beginning of their decline. So well, enjoy it, sir, enjoy it. 276 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: I do. And the other key is have a good 277 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: mechanic and don't be afraid of the cost. Right, don't 278 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 1: be afraid of the cost is right. You know, we 279 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 1: we have a regular listener. Eddie Goyda said, he's he's 280 00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: I keep telling him he's the financial guru and he's 281 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: got this really great lost analysis, and I've got to 282 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: keep threatening to put it up on Facebook, and I'm 283 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: gonna have to try and do it again. I forget. 284 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: I get so overwhelmed during the course of the week. 285 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: But Eddie broke down the cost of car ownership for 286 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 1: me one day, penny for penny, pound for pound, and 287 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 1: in so many cases it just makes sense to, uh, 288 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,480 Speaker 1: you know, spend the money on the car and and 289 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,920 Speaker 1: and keep the car going longer, um when a lot 290 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: of people just run away from it. So it's the 291 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: absolute truth. It's been mine for two eighteen months, and 292 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 1: I spend a hundred and fifty four thirty nine on 293 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:34,440 Speaker 1: a monthly basis that includes everything but registration and insurance. Right, 294 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: that's right. And you know what, you know the vehicle, 295 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: and you know what you're getting, and you still enjoy it. Joe, 296 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: I gotta move the day along. I appreciate the car. 297 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: You stay good up there in Vermont and enjoy your Jeep. 298 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 1: And thanks for being part of the car doctor family. 299 00:14:45,920 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: David and Iowa. David, welcome back, sir. How's things out? Iowa? 300 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 1: Wait today a long time? Yeah, we're staying safe. What's 301 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 1: going on? Well, Hey, I've got a I've got a 302 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: two thousand five were all prot that I bought for 303 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: two uter and fifty bucks. They used to be a 304 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: mail truck from my guy and he let it go 305 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: to Hell. I was so full of Iowa mud you 306 00:15:08,360 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't believe it. I took it home. I actually drove 307 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: it home, was believe it or not. And uh, I 308 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: cleaned it up. I too it toil mechanic and it 309 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 1: needed a lot of well not a lot of stuff. 310 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: But they had a good motor in it, clean oil 311 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: and everything before I drove it back home. But anyway, 312 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,480 Speaker 1: they're having trouble with the brake system. I've got too 313 00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 1: much uh distance on the brakes that we tried to 314 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:36,960 Speaker 1: repair the I don't know the bearings, the brake pads 315 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: and all that, and I think it's probably has something 316 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: to do. They don't know. They don't realize how you 317 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: believe those things that I know. I looked at them 318 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 1: on the internet and it shouldn't. You have to believe 319 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 1: it at least three times. And uh, there are also 320 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: not just I hadn't put brake lines through the whole truck, 321 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 1: and they had managed to put those in there. I 322 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 1: was wondered if one of the cubes could have been bent. 323 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 1: Whether there is crafted in the cylinder. Uh at, Well, 324 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: let me ask you this, David, what did they do? 325 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: Did they did they change the master and the rest 326 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: of the hydraulics. I don't know what they did. Okay, 327 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: So so here, let's let's let's start at the beginning, 328 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: all right. If they've overhauled the brake system. Will make 329 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 1: some assumption, all right, for the for the purpose of 330 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: the call. You know, if they've overhauled the brake system, 331 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: it's an older vehicle, it's a it's an O five, 332 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,200 Speaker 1: it's got a few miles on it. It was a 333 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 1: mail truck. You know. Mail trucks are notoriously tough on breakes. 334 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: It stop, go, stop, go, stop, go all day long. 335 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: All right. So let's assume they did a master cylinder 336 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: and four calipers, they changed some brake lines, they put 337 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: pads on it, and they can't get a pedal out 338 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 1: of it. All right. They've got to start at the beginning. 339 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: They've got to bleed the master, either bench bleeded or 340 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,400 Speaker 1: bleed it on the vehicle, all right. And I could 341 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: go through the pain of explaining how to bleed bench 342 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: bleeded or bleeding on the vehicle. But I've got to 343 00:16:59,360 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 1: hope that they know to do that. They're a repair shop. 344 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,919 Speaker 1: When they get the air out of the Master, then 345 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,959 Speaker 1: they've got you know, what kind of pedal do they have? 346 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 1: You know you can get you can get plugs for 347 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: the Master cylinder. Bleed the Master, plug it, step on 348 00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 1: the brake. Do you have a good hard pedal? Yes 349 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: or no? Good, it's good. Let's move on. Put the 350 00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: lines on the Master, go down to the calipers and 351 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 1: begin bleeding the system, going around, purging air from the system. Now, 352 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 1: if they go all the way around and they get 353 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: all the air out of the system, and they still 354 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: have a crumby pedal, and they've done this one time, 355 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: two times, three times, and the calipers are installed correctly, 356 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 1: and everything is looped correctly, and they've checked to make 357 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: sure that the distance between the pedal push rod going 358 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: into the booster and the brake pedal linkage isn't worn out, 359 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: and all the crazy things you look at and higher mileage, 360 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: older vehicles. The next thing they have to consider, because 361 00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:53,080 Speaker 1: I'm sure this is an anti locked break equipped vehicle, 362 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 1: is to do a bleed on the a B as 363 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: control unit and for that, they're gonna need a scan tool. 364 00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:01,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna need the vice that will plug into the 365 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,480 Speaker 1: O B D two port the connector under the dash, 366 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: and there's a procedure they're going to find in the 367 00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: A B S section of that scan tool that talks 368 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 1: about specifically things they have to do. Step on the pedal, 369 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,680 Speaker 1: wait for the pump to run, open a bleeder. There's 370 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: a whole process they've got to go through because if 371 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,440 Speaker 1: there's air trapped in the A B S controller, they're 372 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: never going to be able to displace it or push 373 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:27,360 Speaker 1: it out by doing a simple conventional bleed again, depending 374 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 1: upon what was done. But that's basically a brake system 375 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: overhaul for that generation vehicle, and that's probably steps they 376 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: need to go through more than that. Called me back, 377 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: you know what a finding always get to hear from 378 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: your David out Iowa way a mondinating in the card. 379 00:18:40,200 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: Doctors will return right after this broke the back randinated 380 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: of the car doctor. Let's go over to the hotel 381 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: in Indiana wants to talk about a thirteen Cadillac and 382 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: break bleeding. Patel, Welcome to the car doctor. How can 383 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 1: I help? Hey Ron, how you doing? I appreciate your help. 384 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,879 Speaker 1: You very welcome. What's going on with this cat? So 385 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: I help this Cadillac just approach hundred thousand miles along 386 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 1: to my very good friend, and he said, I want 387 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: to keep it. I said, okay, refresh all the fluids. 388 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: And I think the break flu it looks like dark 389 00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: burnt oil. I said, let's trush the break froud for sure. 390 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:35,959 Speaker 1: And I made a little device from the spray bottles 391 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: from the big box stores, so I put a gage 392 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: on that. So I'm trying to pressurize between ten to 393 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,719 Speaker 1: twelve ps i. And I made a draptor out of 394 00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,240 Speaker 1: plastic and rubber things that will mount on top of 395 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: the reservoir. And my goal is to pressurize that ten 396 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,680 Speaker 1: to twelve p s i through the buster cylinder. Of course, 397 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 1: like all the all fluid out, put a fresh fluid 398 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: in and then put that adapter on and pressurize that 399 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: spray about ten to clo ps i and correct the 400 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:17,639 Speaker 1: caliper bleeding peoples on the wheels doing this. Would that 401 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: be okay to do it? Or I still need to 402 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: involve a I don't think. I don't think well, I 403 00:20:22,280 --> 00:20:24,240 Speaker 1: don't think ten pounds of pressure is going to be 404 00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 1: enough to pressurize the system. To be perfectly honest, what 405 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: you suggest you can go up? Well, yeah, I mean 406 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,119 Speaker 1: look at look at you know, normal brake pedal operating pressure. 407 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 1: You'll see pressure is much higher than that three s. 408 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: I So before we start making rudimentary devices with pressure 409 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: built into them and we're developing the next bomb in 410 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: our face kind of an issue which is very bigger concern, 411 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: Let's do it this way, all right, Let's do it 412 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: this way. Take that plastic bottle you brought from the 413 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:59,439 Speaker 1: big box store and cut the top off. All right, Okay, 414 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: so now you have roughly or better yet, go down 415 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: to your local fast food store and get the large 416 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: drink that they sell that your favorite beverage that's that 417 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: comes in a large plastic cup, and and or take 418 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 1: a court break fluid bottle and cut the top off 419 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: so you've got a wide mouth, not the small neck 420 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,919 Speaker 1: that you pour from. All right, and take oh probably 421 00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: eighteen inches of rubber rubber on nine vacuum line, curl 422 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,160 Speaker 1: it up, make a pigtail, put put you know, two 423 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 1: or three loops in the bottom of it, and then 424 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 1: take a binder clip, a black binder clip from the 425 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 1: local office supply and hold the hose to the top 426 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: of the bottle. And take the remaining rubber hose as 427 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: long as you want it to be the right diameter 428 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: on the inside so it fits over the bleeder. Fill 429 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: the bottom of the cup. Oh, about a quarter of 430 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 1: the way with break fluid, clean fluid, empty the master. 431 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 1: Put that on the bleeder. Okay, start with I always 432 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: start with the left front the shortest distance to the master, 433 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: so I'm pushing all the crud out through the shortest 434 00:21:58,480 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: distance to get rid of it out of the cyst 435 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:03,720 Speaker 1: them first, all right, open the bleader, fill the master, 436 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:08,359 Speaker 1: and slowly stroke the pedal. All right. The reason I 437 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: like to do that, and you can have a help 438 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: or stroke the pedal. And you've got to teach them 439 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: how to stroke. You've got to teach them. You know, 440 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: Drummers are the best break bleeders because you can teach 441 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,800 Speaker 1: them the one to count, all right. It's somebody's got 442 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:23,119 Speaker 1: musical inclination. They make better break bleeders because I've gotten 443 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: I've gotten people that want to tap dance and it's 444 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: like bum no, no, slow down, all right, you know, 445 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: it's like it's it's just you know, nice and easy, 446 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 1: nice and slow, get a steady rhythm, and you're gonna 447 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 1: push ten to twelve cycles of the pedal. You'll see 448 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 1: all the crud come out. Stop, close the bleeder, fill 449 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: the master all right, empty the cup. Look at the 450 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: crud that's in the bottom of the cup and you'll 451 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: you'll get it. You know. I like working the pedal 452 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,399 Speaker 1: by hand because you're working the hydraulics as if you 453 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 1: were operating the vehicle, all right, and you want to 454 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: do that and so you know, you'll get about eight 455 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 1: clean out of that and left front. Once that's done, 456 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: then go around and manually bleed the rest of the system. 457 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: All right, And if you do this right and you 458 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,720 Speaker 1: take your time, you know, the idea is if the 459 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 1: hoses in the cup exposed, if it's underneath break fluid, 460 00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: you're not going to you know, let air get in 461 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: as long as the bleeders, as long as it doesn't 462 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,359 Speaker 1: leak air around the bleeders, the bleeders aren't worn on 463 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: the calipers, you should be fine. And then once you're 464 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 1: done with that, if you've got a good pedal, you 465 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 1: don't need to bleed the A B S controllers. So 466 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,639 Speaker 1: you won't need a scan tool. They always tell you 467 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: to manually bleed first and then do the A B 468 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 1: S bleed all right, and then go back and bleed 469 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: the system again. And then we'll always go around and 470 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: we'll just you know, one or two pumps crack the bleeder, 471 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 1: one or two pumps crack the bleeder, and just to 472 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: make sure if there's any air there, purge it out. 473 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,479 Speaker 1: And then when you're done, if you don't have them, 474 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 1: mom there, go out and get some bleed caps from 475 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 1: the local odal parts store, because it's always nice to 476 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: put bleed caps. And then I'll take some wheelbearing grease 477 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: or some yellow grease and I'll spoonge it around the 478 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,200 Speaker 1: heck not of the bleeder and the threads. It kind 479 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,080 Speaker 1: of keeps moisture out of there, and it takes a 480 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: set and it's just it lasts a little while, and 481 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: sometimes I'll be lucky, increase stays there a long time, 482 00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 1: depending upon the environment the vehicles operating. And but that's 483 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:18,120 Speaker 1: that just that's good caliber maintenance. That's good break maintenance. 484 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: That's just but that's the way to do it. That way. 485 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: We that way we make sure that we're getting all 486 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: the crud and the contaminant out, and we're not gonna 487 00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: risk hurting ourselves creating devices. I understand what you're doing, 488 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,360 Speaker 1: and I think it's brilliant what you're what you're attempting. 489 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: But you know, sometimes you don't need to reinvent the bridge. 490 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,000 Speaker 1: All right? Now, Can I have one more question? One 491 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 1: more question to for a nickel? Then I gotta go sure. 492 00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 1: So now, when when I'm applying break, I just took 493 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:49,719 Speaker 1: a test drive, and when I apply a break by 494 00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: forty to the over and then let's say grid light approaches, 495 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: So I try and apply a break, I feel a 496 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,240 Speaker 1: little bit off, like a feedback on a stating wheel, 497 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 1: like the steering wheel. Like the steering wheel shakes, So 498 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:06,560 Speaker 1: go faster, get out to the highway, do fifty five 499 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 1: sixty taken eight to ten minute ride, Do fifty sixty 500 00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,479 Speaker 1: and lightly touched the pedal, not a full stop, just 501 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: lightly touch it and then start to apply it more. 502 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: If the steering wheel shakes, if the shake is in 503 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 1: the wheel, you've likely got a front brake rotor that's 504 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: out of round or got a pulse to it because 505 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,320 Speaker 1: it's distorted. Maybe somebody's overtightened lug nuts. Maybe somebody's machine 506 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 1: the rotors too much. Maybe the calipers or the brake 507 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,920 Speaker 1: pads don't move freely on the slide. Somebody has done 508 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 1: an improper brake repair. But something's caused the front breaks 509 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 1: to distort the front rotors, all right, and then take 510 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 1: it for a second ride. Now, if it's gone on 511 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: the steering wheel, or you feel it in the seat 512 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: of your pants, and I've had it where the shake 513 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,160 Speaker 1: and the steering wheel is so bad you can't tell 514 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,960 Speaker 1: that it's in the seat of your pants. So you 515 00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 1: start with the front and then move to the back. 516 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: But as long as the shake is gone. But more 517 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:56,639 Speaker 1: than likely that is a front rotor pulse. Of course, 518 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,879 Speaker 1: you want to check the front end. Nothing loose, nothing worn. 519 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: You know, no other issues on this seven year old car, 520 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: but from your description, very common. You're you're more than 521 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 1: likely talking about a a bad um uh bad set 522 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 1: of break rotors that need to be repaired or replaced. 523 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: All right, but tell do that, call me back if 524 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: you need more. I'm running any in the car, doctor 525 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: zero zero will be back right after this. Welcome back, 526 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: run any in the car doctor. Let's get over and 527 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: talk to Maureen in New York City. Oh three Ponty 528 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 1: at Grandam Maureen. Welcome to the car doctor. How can 529 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 1: I help? Yeah? Hi, um yeah, I called once before 530 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: a while ago, bud of front. But the issue now 531 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 1: is um, I just had um odd. There was chickens 532 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: and light went off and the valve control valve was 533 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: replaced a different one and now the check engine light 534 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 1: doesn't go on. It stays off. So that was the problem. 535 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: But I was told that I have to drive the 536 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:23,199 Speaker 1: car a little each day to clear the computer for inspection. Um. 537 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 1: How true was that? Because I don't always drive sometimes 538 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: I take public transportation and I'm in the city. So 539 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: so you got up this morning, right you? You? You? 540 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,080 Speaker 1: You showered, you brush your teeth, you had breakfast, you 541 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: had coffee, you listen to the radio, you had your 542 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 1: you had your morning routine. Right. So a car, a 543 00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 1: car does the same thing. Do you ever think about 544 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: how a car knows when to turn on a check 545 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: engine light. Do you ever think about the what's going 546 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: on behind the scenes and how that happens? Well not really, No, 547 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 1: just indicates that something has something's wrong. But how does 548 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: it you know? How does it? How does it know? 549 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,919 Speaker 1: Something's wrong. You know you've you've been sick in your lifetime, right, Maureen, 550 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,479 Speaker 1: you you you you woke up on you woke up 551 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 1: on Monday, you had the sniffles, Tuesday you had the aches, 552 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,640 Speaker 1: Wednesday you had the running nose, and you had the cold. Right, 553 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: So Monday, Monday you started not feeling well. Tuesday your 554 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: brain said, hey, it's getting worse. And Wednesday your check 555 00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 1: engine light went on. Right. So, car computer, car computers 556 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,960 Speaker 1: do the same thing, but they do it every time 557 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: you cycle the key. So every time you turn the 558 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:34,119 Speaker 1: key on that car computer, depending upon your make, model 559 00:28:34,160 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: and the amount of electronics, and it's it's it's programming. 560 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 1: It's running a self test of its circuits, and it 561 00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 1: tests different components at different times under different conditions. All right, 562 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: if you had aches, and if you had aches and 563 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 1: pains and your joints but you weren't walking, you wouldn't 564 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: know you had aches and pains and your joints for 565 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 1: the coming cold right until you started walking. So you 566 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: have to get up and start walking to feel those 567 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 1: aches and pains. The car computer can't test all of 568 00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: its circuits. Sitting there, idling in Maureen's driveway, Garager parking spot. 569 00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: All right now, right, but right now, I understand that. 570 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: But my point is the vehicle needs to operate under 571 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: a wide range of conditions because that's how they set 572 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 1: it's programming. So the mechanic that told you this, he's 573 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: not wrong. The vehicle needs to run what we call 574 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: monitors or self tests. All right now. Some of those 575 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: self tests are done at thirty to thirty five miles 576 00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: an hour. Some of those self tests are done at 577 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: fifty five to sixty miles an hour. Some of those 578 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 1: that's gonna be an issue for you. So you know what, 579 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: I what I always tell everybody if you're not a 580 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: highway driver, if you're in an area that if you're 581 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: in an area that you know doesn't really it's not 582 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 1: conducive to you taking it out onto the highway or 583 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: you just can't get there. The mechanic, if he's trained 584 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: properly alas how to run a drive cycle, knows how 585 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:06,440 Speaker 1: to run and create the conditions that will make the 586 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: monitors of the self tests run to completion and allow 587 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: the vehicle to be ready for inspection. You can pay 588 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: for that service. It typically takes up to an hour 589 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: of shop time, so depending upon what their labor rate is, 590 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: it will be up to that hour. All right, But 591 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: it's inspection. That's not part of regular inspection, no man, 592 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,400 Speaker 1: not in any state that I'm aware of. You bring 593 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 1: a vehicle, you bring a vehicle to a repair shop 594 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 1: in New Jersey. If it's Jersey inspection, and I know 595 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 1: New York. I'm just saying New Jersey as an example, 596 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 1: that vehicle is inspected and as received condition. As a 597 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:43,760 Speaker 1: matter of fact, as motor vehicle inspectors were supposed to 598 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: take that vehicle in as received condition and inspect it 599 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 1: at that moment. Now, if we've done a repair to it, 600 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: we have to document that repair, run the drive cycle, 601 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,840 Speaker 1: or have you run the drive cycle and then inspect it. 602 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: That's a different story. But well that's what he said. 603 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 1: To drive it a little each day, about thirty minutes, right, 604 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 1: but you know a couple of days, and he's not 605 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: wrong under varying conditions and speeds. But if you can't 606 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 1: get out to the highway and do then you know, 607 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 1: puttering around town at twenty miles isn't going to do it. 608 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: It's just not going to run all the monitors and 609 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: the vehicle just have to ask him if there's such 610 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,360 Speaker 1: a service he can do that. He can do that 611 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: and he should be able to All right, what is 612 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 1: it called us? Ask him? Can he run the vehicle's 613 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 1: monitors so that it's ready for state inspection? Running monitors? 614 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 1: Can he run the monitors for state for state inspection? 615 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 1: And what would that cost? Smart monitors? M O N 616 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 1: I T O R S. Yes, monitors for state inspection. 617 00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 1: All right, Um, well, I have another question I have 618 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: until the end of September. If I throw the car 619 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: every day for um, are you are you gonna go? 620 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: Are you gonna go fifty? Well, it won't matter. It 621 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,640 Speaker 1: won't matter if it if it, if it did pass 622 00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 1: and run its monitors, it's by the grace of God 623 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: that it worked, because that's not how the programming is designed. 624 00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 1: We can actually look up for an oh three Pontiac 625 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: Grand Damn and look at the drive cycle and the 626 00:32:23,800 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: drive cycle I know from memory very somewhere between twenty 627 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,120 Speaker 1: eight miles an hour up to sixty two. So if 628 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: you're not going to break the fifty mile an hour barrier, 629 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,320 Speaker 1: you know, listen, computers have been wrong before, but you're 630 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: you're asking me to go against you know, written fact 631 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 1: that it says, Hey, here's what you have to do 632 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,240 Speaker 1: to get the monitors to run. Is it possible? Sure, 633 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: anything's possible? Is it likely? No? So um take it 634 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: to the mechanic. Haven't run the drive cycle. Good luck 635 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 1: to you, Maureen zero running of the car doctor coming 636 00:32:51,840 --> 00:33:01,320 Speaker 1: back right after this. But get over to Western Virginia 637 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: running any of the car doctorate your service? West? How 638 00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 1: can I help? I got two minutes, sir. I've got 639 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: a two thousand and seven Avalunlimited and one of the 640 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 1: air pressure they tire pressure gages went out. So I 641 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 1: got to have a friend who got me a factory one. 642 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,719 Speaker 1: But he put it in, but he can't get it 643 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:23,080 Speaker 1: on his tool to reset the dashboards to the death 644 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: board like those off, he said, I have to go 645 00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: to a dealership and they want to charge two just 646 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 1: to reset the thing. Is there a different way to 647 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:35,760 Speaker 1: have to get that things off? Yeah? So let me 648 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: ask this question. When he got you the new sensor, 649 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 1: did you program it to the vehicle or you just 650 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:47,040 Speaker 1: installed it to the car. He he does not work 651 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,560 Speaker 1: the guy he programmed it with the programmer that he has. 652 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: But what he has, apparently, he said he talked to 653 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: a friend of business, said it it must be a Toyota. Uh, 654 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:02,480 Speaker 1: it has here. Let's let's do it like, let's do 655 00:34:02,520 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: it like this. Do you still have the old sensor? Okay, 656 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: right when you get when you get off the air, 657 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 1: look at the old censor. There's a serial number or 658 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 1: a registration number on that sensor. Okay, that number is 659 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: burned into the tire pressure module, because that's how it 660 00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:23,759 Speaker 1: knows that it's your car. Do you ever stop the 661 00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: wonder like, We've got all these cars with tire pressure 662 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: sensors on them, and you're sitting at a traffic light, 663 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 1: and how come the guy next to you with low 664 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 1: tire pressure doesn't register on your system because every right, 665 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 1: it's within proximity. Because every sensor has a unique identifying 666 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: digital code. So so the new sensor you put in 667 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 1: now has to You have to train your system to 668 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 1: stop looking for the old one with that number and 669 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:54,760 Speaker 1: start looking forward. Yes, but this is the only system 670 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,880 Speaker 1: that can do that would be one that's from a Toyota. No, 671 00:34:58,040 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 1: that's not true. The computer that's that's that's that's not true. Um. 672 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:04,800 Speaker 1: There's a majority of aftermarket scan tools all tell snap 673 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,120 Speaker 1: on launch they all do they all do TPMs programming 674 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: and they should all be capable of that. Do you 675 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: have a regular garage or regular mechanic other than the dealer. Yes, 676 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,280 Speaker 1: it's a friend of mine that he worked for Ford 677 00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: all the cars, but he's a certified Ford, right, Well, 678 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 1: a Ford dealership is not going to have the capability 679 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,400 Speaker 1: to program with Toyota, but an independent repairs because a 680 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 1: Ford dealership has to work on Fords, but an independent 681 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,680 Speaker 1: repair shop is geared towards the variety of cars. Where 682 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: Ford is specific to Ford, in Toyota's specific to Toyota. 683 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: You've got to find the neighborhood garage. Do they have 684 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:47,800 Speaker 1: the ability to program a factory TPMs sensor to your vehicle? 685 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 1: Chances are they do. If not, there are other sensors 686 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: out there that can be used to replace that. But 687 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:56,800 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of bucks to program something. Everything 688 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 1: costs money and everything takes time. So good luck to 689 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,600 Speaker 1: you West. I mean I am make out. I'll run 690 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,480 Speaker 1: an any of the card actor reminding until the next time. 691 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 1: The mechanics aren't expensive, they're placeless.
