8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: All right, there, busy week in the shop. It was

9
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: a bunch of long term projects. I can almost see

10
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: the back of the front fence. The back of the

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,160
Speaker 1: front fence. Well, I can see the front of the

12
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: front fence, but on the backside I can almost see.

13
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:37,800
Speaker 1: We're getting rid of a lot of cars this week.

14
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:39,319
Speaker 1: We'll put it to you that way. It's um, we've

15
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: really kind of starting to catch up. And I'm down

16
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: to the last two projects. The eighties six Ford wagon,

17
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 1: the full size LTD wagon or whatever it was in

18
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: eighty six that was towed in no crank, no start,

19
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: no dash lights. Some animals ate my wiring harness oops.

20
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: And they'll be getting to that in the next couple

21
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 1: of weeks. And see what that's all about. And the

22
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 1: seven months it's only been there. Let's see jam nanuary.

23
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 1: It came I figured with football season coming around, I

24
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: know the guy wants to take it to the Jets games. Um,

25
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: which he does. Actually, that's a true story on him

26
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: and his dad used to go to the Jets games,

27
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,240
Speaker 1: and he inherit the car from his father a couple

28
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: of years ago after the father passed. I figured, well,

29
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: then again, maybe he doesn't want to go see the

30
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 1: Jets games. I was just thinking about that. I was

31
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 1: reading the article about the Jets are predicting a winning

32
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 1: season because they might show up at the stadium. But

33
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: um uh, in all seriousness, I'm still I'm getting to

34
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: this Chrysler. It's slowly coming around. You talk about a car, right,

35
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: how can my car go bad from sitting? Here's a

36
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 1: car that sat for how long did it sit? Well, Ron,

37
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: it probably sat a couple of months, a year, maybe

38
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: two years. You know, we're not really quite sure. We

39
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: just haven't driven in a very long time. The big

40
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: problem with this particular Chrysler is, and this is what

41
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: happens when car sit is right now, among all the

42
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: other things that needs tires and breaks and fluids and

43
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: so forth, is the right rear wheels. Beat sensor has

44
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,639
Speaker 1: no signal output, and they do this in a very

45
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: strange way. They do this with a magnet, a magnet

46
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: clamped to the outside band and it's looking at the

47
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: polarity as far as to generate a wheel speed signal,

48
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: and the sensor is reactive to it. And that's what

49
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:24,080
Speaker 1: creates a a a signal for wheel speed UM based

50
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,160
Speaker 1: on you know, magnetism and polarity in which way it's flowing.

51
00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: I think the magnet went bad. I really do. I

52
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: can't prove it. I can't prove it yet, but I'm

53
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: working towards that and to get the axle out of

54
00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:41,519
Speaker 1: the rusted naurled up, corroded, calcified, beat up lower right

55
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 1: rear control arm and subassemblies as a project. So I'm

56
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: trying to get scientific and working way around it. UM

57
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: I purchased. We went out and we found some instructions

58
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: to test TIS break systems and incorporates an LED and

59
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: nine volt battery and some resistors and we're gonna wire

60
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: it up. We're gonna make our own tool. I bought

61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 1: the parts on Amazon on last week and I'm gonna

62
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: sodder it up Monday morning and go out and start testing.

63
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: It looks for the led light to blink and see

64
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 1: what goes on. But the point of this conversation is

65
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: the older cars are getting tougher to fix, it seems

66
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: because they're having stranger things go wrong with them. Had

67
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: a ninety nine Mercury Grand Marquis in the shop this week,

68
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: actually for the last two weeks, and it was four

69
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: tires all is worth of restore my ninety nine Grand Marque.

70
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,359
Speaker 1: I want to drive this car for a while yet,

71
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: okay um, But it still comes down to the quality

72
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 1: of parts and what's not there and how hard it

73
00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: is to find parts. And when we were all done

74
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: with this Grand Marquis and ready to go, the front

75
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: was a little squirrelly, and we had done ball joints.

76
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: The ball joints were worn out, and there was a

77
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: bunch of other things and it had been a little

78
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: squirrely before, but now it was really ugly. And my

79
00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: theory is that the newer ball joints or night some

80
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 1: tight and you know it takes wire for ball joints

81
00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,280
Speaker 1: in front end pieces to settle in. You need to

82
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: put a dredft two hundred maybe five miles on them

83
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: sometimes to get things to loosen up and and and

84
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 1: stretch and sort of take a seat uncertain older cars.

85
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:17,919
Speaker 1: But the problem with this one is the steering box.

86
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 1: The steering box isn't what it should have been, and

87
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 1: you know, wasn't exactly a little bit ago, and you

88
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 1: need to go and find a steering box. And a

89
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 1: lot of the aftermarket rebuilders, in my opinion, just aren't.

90
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,720
Speaker 1: They're just not great. And I don't know if it's

91
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: that they don't have the cores, they don't have the

92
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: rebuildable parts to how many times can you rebuild the

93
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: steering box for a ninety nine crown vic? I mean

94
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: it's some of the hard parts, not the shim's, not

95
00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:45,480
Speaker 1: the seals, not the soft pliable things. You know those

96
00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: can be replaced, But but the hard parts themselves, the

97
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,520
Speaker 1: spool and the sector and all the internal metal parts.

98
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 1: How many times can you rebuild those things? They do

99
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:55,679
Speaker 1: get aware to them, they do get to the point

100
00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: where you know they're they're they're just worn out. So

101
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: it's got this issue where you go down the road

102
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 1: and if you just sit there and you're you kind

103
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 1: of like mind melted. You can feel the steering way

104
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: when you turn to the left, it's a little lighter

105
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 1: to the left, and it is to the right, it's

106
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 1: a little, just a little, just just a touch. So

107
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: you know, what are we gonna do with this. We've

108
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: got to give this guy back his car. He understands.

109
00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 1: He's a very understanding customer. He gets it. Um, you know,

110
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 1: he just he just do the best you can. It's

111
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: always do the best you can. And I really, I

112
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 1: really appreciate that in somebody. I really do, because it's

113
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: very difficult today in some cars and some applications. Turns out,

114
00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 1: I said, you know, let's go back to basics. Let's

115
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: throw the numbers away for the alignment. What if we

116
00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: take some castor out castor is steering access inclination or

117
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: steering angle and it it basically if you think of

118
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: the center line of of a bicycle wheel as you

119
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 1: turn the bicycle wheel, is that center line where the

120
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:00,920
Speaker 1: axle studies or where the acxle, where the nuts are

121
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 1: that hold the wheel to the frame. As that changes

122
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 1: in relation to its position in the air, you're you're

123
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: changing steering angle, you know, as the fork changes as

124
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: it as it rotates left and right. So I took

125
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: some castor out of the car. I I put it

126
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 1: back to zero. It was well over four degrees and

127
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: I put it back to zero just to see what

128
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 1: it was. You know, it wasn't perfect, but it got

129
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: to be a lot better. And that's the point of

130
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:29,159
Speaker 1: this opening conversation that sometimes you're faced with some trade

131
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 1: offs repairing older cars. Sometimes it has to be you know,

132
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 1: I can't get apart. What am I gonna do to

133
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 1: you know? How how do I got to fix this? Um?

134
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 1: You know, it's it's an imperfect world that we live

135
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 1: in when it comes to automobiles, and they're they're very

136
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,520
Speaker 1: difficult to get along with. Sometimes it's like your relatives

137
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 1: of the holidays. You just don't want to, you know,

138
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: deal with it. But you've got to. You've got to

139
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: face up to it. You got to fix the car

140
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: in front of you, and you can't get aggravated about it.

141
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 1: Danny was doing a throttle body cleaning the other day

142
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: on a on a Ford Mustang, and we use snakeheads

143
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 1: to clean throttle bodies and they're like these little pink,

144
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: poofy cotton balls on the end of a plastic stick

145
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: that's designed just to do this job, well, I guess.

146
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: And the nice thing is with it with a snakehead

147
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: from the folks that at run right as you can

148
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 1: actually sit there and you can go way down the throat.

149
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,360
Speaker 1: It's like a giant Q tip. Stick up, stick, open

150
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 1: your mouth and say oh, and you can ram this

151
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: Q tip down the throat of the intake and you

152
00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 1: can get out a lot of contaminant, all right, you

153
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 1: can really clean the thing out. So Danny scrubbing away

154
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,520
Speaker 1: and scrubbing away and scrubbing away, and he pulls the

155
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: tampon out, the the the Q tip out and there's

156
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: no there's no cotton ball on the end of it.

157
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: It's in the motor. Like oh, so, like, now where

158
00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: do we go? How do we get this out? What

159
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: do we do with this? And it was kind of

160
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: funny because Danny's friend Adam had stopped by, and Adam

161
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 1: works in a repair shop. He's sort of like the

162
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: shop puppy over there. He's the he's the he's the gopher,

163
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,680
Speaker 1: the guy Friday, and he just watched us, you know,

164
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: work our way around it and sneak something down there

165
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: and pull it out, and you know, and Adam looked

166
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: at Danny. After we were all done, I heard I'm saying,

167
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 1: how come your boss didn't yell and get aggravated? And

168
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: I turned around and I said, Adam, I can hear you.

169
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: I'm not that old, you know. Um. The truth is,

170
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: Adam getting mad about trying to fix a car that's

171
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: a problem doesn't solve anything. You still got to fix

172
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,559
Speaker 1: the broken car in front of you, and that's really

173
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: what it's all about. And I looked at him and

174
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 1: I said, you know, fixing cars is a lot like life.

175
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 1: You gotta deal with the problems that come along, and

176
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. But as long

177
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 1: as you learn from each and everyone, then you're ahead

178
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 1: of the curve, along with more people swear by you

179
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 1: than at you. You're winning every day. Eight five zero

180
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: nine zero zero running Nating the Car Doctor. Cruising back

181
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: right after this, Welcome back, Nating of the Car Doctor.

182
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: Five five five zero nine nine zero zero is the

183
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: phone number. Give us a call, leave a message. If

184
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: we're not here, motorhead Matt, we'll call you back. And

185
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: interesting to see how people are testing motorhead Matt's extensive knowledge,

186
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 1: extensive knowledge of the automobile. It was very heartwarming to

187
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: see the next up and coming protege to the car

188
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: doctor motorhead, Matt. Give him a call. You can talk

189
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,720
Speaker 1: to him and find out how much he really knows.

190
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 1: That'll be a short conversation. Let's go and talk to

191
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:24,440
Speaker 1: Chris and Ohio two thousand one Volkswagon cabrio and some problems.

192
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 1: Well a used car, Chris, what did you buy here?

193
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,560
Speaker 1: I bought at two other one cabrio? Um? I looked

194
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 1: up on the Kelly blue Book value thirty seven. It's

195
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:39,760
Speaker 1: working right, right? Would you pay for this? Okay? So

196
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 1: you got what you paid for now, that's right. So

197
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 1: what what what does this do or not do? Well?

198
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: When I went down there to get it, um, I

199
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: asked him. I said, as a drive okay? He said, yeah,

200
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: I trest fine. I drove on the highway. Well, I

201
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,120
Speaker 1: live close to Dayton, Ohio. Picked it up in Cincinnati, Ohio.

202
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: So from Cincinnati to Dayton going about on the highway

203
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: at three thousand or m. Because the Witnes shift gears,

204
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 1: do you think do you think it was first gear

205
00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:09,800
Speaker 1: or third gear? It I'm thinking it was third. It's

206
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: real slow to take off, right, Yeah, it's it's it's

207
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 1: It's kind of like when you got your ten speed.

208
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 1: See I'm dating myself. It's kind of like when you

209
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: got your ten speed and you start out in fifth gear,

210
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 1: in that middle gear right. Um, in my day, bicycles

211
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: only had ten speeds. You guys, now you know speed,

212
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 1: thirty speed? You know rocket ship rocket propulsion on the

213
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:30,680
Speaker 1: back of your bike. Um, you know, so surprised nobody's

214
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 1: invented a flying bicycle yet. Um so any dashboard warning

215
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: lights on? No? Um we ran were My dad have

216
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: code readers of all sorts and its threw up transmission

217
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,520
Speaker 1: code something about short circuit solenoid b Okay does it?

218
00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: Does it? Does it sound like P zero seven fifty

219
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: three seven fifty eight shifts solenoid B, SI solenoid c uh,

220
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,680
Speaker 1: shift solenoid D and all that yep oki dok So.

221
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 1: The deal here is this could be a wiring harness

222
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: issue leading up to and inclusive of inside the transmission

223
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: in the valve body area. This could be shifts solenoids,

224
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: This could be the trans so you know, some real

225
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: intense diagnosis has to be made here. Um, the internal

226
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: solenoids in the trans do go bad? Does the alternator

227
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: happen to look new or newer by chance. Um, I

228
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 1: haven't looked at it, and the real the read well.

229
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,200
Speaker 1: The reason I asked that is because, believe it or not,

230
00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 1: quite often the alternator goes bad on this particular model.

231
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 1: It causes an overcharging condition and it pops the solenoids

232
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:48,040
Speaker 1: in the trans hmm. So at least it gives you

233
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: a you know, it doesn't solve your immediate problem, but

234
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: it just gives you a little bit of history of

235
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,760
Speaker 1: how you got here. How many miles are on the car?

236
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: That's a questionable part. Well, I thought, I thought this

237
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:03,760
Speaker 1: was all questionable. Get up on the title he told

238
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,720
Speaker 1: me to put. He thought that I had a hundred

239
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,280
Speaker 1: seventy seven thousand miles, So that's what I put on

240
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: the title. But I looked up on like the past

241
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,280
Speaker 1: titles that the vehicle's had, and it's at a hundred

242
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: forty five and then the dash of a hundred four.

243
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 1: Holy cow. So it's interesting. Let me let me ask

244
00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: you this are you did you buy this because you're

245
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: trying to make it reliable? Is this gonna be? Yeah? Yeah,

246
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,600
Speaker 1: yeah it's gonna be. I have a my other car

247
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: with two thousand and five accurate t L. I've actually

248
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: called you guys about that in the past, and I

249
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: missed your guys phone call U. Is this gonna be like?

250
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: Is this gonna be like the winter car when you

251
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 1: want to keep the accurate away? It's gonna be my

252
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: commuter car. Right now, I got the t L up

253
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: to two one thousand miles. I'm trying to cut down

254
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 1: the miles on it, and uh do something that's gonna

255
00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: be I don't really care if it breaks down, you

256
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,160
Speaker 1: know what I mean? You just take the plates off

257
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 1: and walk away. Um, and you've got the car look

258
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,640
Speaker 1: plates in hand, You're already done. Uh yeah, I know.

259
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: I knew it would need work when I got it.

260
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: I just I'm trying to debate because I've talked to

261
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 1: people about a Hunu Volkswagens and they say that the

262
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: automatic transmissions carbage. You should do a swap on it.

263
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: And I don't know what all that entails. I would

264
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: tell you, if you I would tell I would tell

265
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: a deal like this, all things considered being equal, chances

266
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 1: are the end the engines, and those are generally fairly strong.

267
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,520
Speaker 1: Al right, Oh yeah, the engine runs like a top

268
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: right now? Which engine is this? Is this? Is this

269
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: a one? A to two? Oh? It's a two? Oh?

270
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 1: If this is this a belt motor? Yeah, make sure

271
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,640
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't trust anybody's but I would definitely you know,

272
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,559
Speaker 1: before when you get this back on the road or

273
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 1: get it on the road, you know you want to

274
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: do a timing belt in the water pump and all

275
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: the usual good stuff there, just because you don't want

276
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 1: to take anybody's word for it. Um. Also also keep

277
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: in mind this is probably a plastic impeller water pump car,

278
00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: so you want to make sure you uh, you know,

279
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: you replace that when you do the belt as well,

280
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: so you don't have any overheat issues. The plus about

281
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: of Volkswagen is that the engines are are really a

282
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,120
Speaker 1: really great example of German engineering. They really are well made,

283
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 1: all right. You know, we've we've pulled the heads on

284
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:20,880
Speaker 1: those at a hundred thousand miles for various reasons, and

285
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 1: you'll still see the cross hatch in the cylinder walls.

286
00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:26,320
Speaker 1: You know, there's there's negligible where in the cylinders. They

287
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 1: look great, all right. So the engine, provided it hasn't

288
00:14:30,920 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: been really abused, we'll probably last a long time. Okay,

289
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 1: no promises, but you're you're you're probably in good shape.

290
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: The question you've got to the side is do you

291
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: want to put a trans in this? Because at a

292
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 1: hundred and I don't know, twenty four sixty six seventy

293
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: seven thousand miles hike right? Uh you know, do you

294
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,920
Speaker 1: know toss a coin? It's you know, what do you

295
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 1: want to do? You know? Is it? Is it? It's

296
00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 1: it's easily three to five grand to put a trans

297
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: in one of those Uh you know, are you're gonna

298
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: it ten times which you paid for the car into

299
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:05,560
Speaker 1: the car? Or or do you want to make it fun?

300
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: So do you want to find a loaner car or

301
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: a donor car? Rather think you know something something with

302
00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: a stick and marry the two together. That's what I

303
00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 1: was thinking. I've seen a couple of five and six

304
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 1: ft jets are the same year go up around me

305
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,240
Speaker 1: for about bucks. I just did. I just don't know

306
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 1: what's swappable or where I can go to see what?

307
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 1: What is conversion? Ready? Well, I think when you're trying

308
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: to do a conversion, since you've got an O one cabrio,

309
00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 1: you probably want to try and find another oh one Cabrio.

310
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's it's gonna make life easier, all right.

311
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: You know the other side of this becomes it's only

312
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 1: you're only into this foreign and fifty dollars worth, so

313
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 1: you're not gonna take that much of a beaten all right.

314
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: You know, I would, I would consider your next move

315
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,840
Speaker 1: very careful. You know, you could go out and prove

316
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,320
Speaker 1: and I could surely send you some tests regarding you know,

317
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 1: resistance values on the solenoids. But I think all it's

318
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 1: gonna prove is that you either need a solenoid, a

319
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,720
Speaker 1: wiring harness, or a trans and in which case you're

320
00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: gonna end up putting either a stick in it or

321
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,800
Speaker 1: just replacing the car, because how can you put such

322
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 1: big money into a car that you've got such bad

323
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: service history. You know, cars are like real estate. Your

324
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: first loss is your best loss, and sometimes you want

325
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 1: to cut your losses brother and just and and just

326
00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 1: sort of move on. Um. So you know, let's let's

327
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: let's say it like that. I say, either go find

328
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 1: another oh one Cabrio, a stick car or something similar,

329
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: not a Jetta, stay in the same body style, and

330
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: then you've got things to move back and forth, or

331
00:16:43,960 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 1: just get out of this altogether. I'll leave you with

332
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: this last comment, Christy. You know if he w stands

333
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: for I did not virtually worthless. Remember that as you

334
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 1: go through this endeavor, all right, it's um, it's um.

335
00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna make you a whole new perspective on looking

353
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,479
Speaker 1: to Susie and Wisconsin two thousand nine, Toyota Venza. Hi, Susie,

354
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 1: how are you welcome to the car doctor? How can

355
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,879
Speaker 1: I help? And great a couple of questions. I'm really

356
00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,920
Speaker 1: not having any problems. I told you a call screener.

357
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: I've never driven a car that has a hundred thousand

358
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,520
Speaker 1: miles on it, and I know these cars can go

359
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 1: along her. I just I'm I've got to put some

360
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 1: money into this car because it needs a hundred dolls

361
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,960
Speaker 1: a mile, you know, check up, which is a thousand dollars.

362
00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,639
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need new tires before we get snow. Probably

363
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,119
Speaker 1: got muffler coming. So I'm looking at three grand, probably

364
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: in the next couple of months putting into this car.

365
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:21,800
Speaker 1: And I'm just wondering, what, you know, where that cut

366
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: off point where you look at a new car where

367
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: you still have some trade in value and and I

368
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,719
Speaker 1: like the car. It's been a great car, you know.

369
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:35,160
Speaker 1: So I think cars are a lifestyle, to be very

370
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 1: honest with you, and I think it's a matter of

371
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 1: you know, dollars and cents, you know s E N

372
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:45,159
Speaker 1: S and what makes sense, and in terms of what

373
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 1: you can afford, I think I think all that has

374
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 1: to be considered if if, and it also depends on

375
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: where you go and how you're driving. If if Susie's

376
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,840
Speaker 1: an emergency room nurse working overnight, since she's getting out

377
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 1: of work at two in the morning. I always think

378
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: about that in terms of telling some to stay in

379
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 1: a car longer, because funny things happen at two o'clock

380
00:19:03,440 --> 00:19:05,679
Speaker 1: in the morning on dark roads on winter nights, and

381
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: you want somebody safe. Cars are very important to me

382
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,479
Speaker 1: in that sense, you know. I always believe that when

383
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:12,359
Speaker 1: I'm working on somebody's car, it's got to be as

384
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 1: safe as if my mom or my wife and my kids,

385
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,119
Speaker 1: you know, are riding in that So that being said,

386
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: a hundred thousand miles really is half life on a

387
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: lot of cars today, It really is. It really depends

388
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,080
Speaker 1: on what sort of maintenance and how good and how

389
00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 1: correct the maintenance has been done up to this point.

390
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: Here's that conversation about oil change intervals. This it always

391
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,160
Speaker 1: seems to start here, and I'm trying I'm not trying

392
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,399
Speaker 1: to incur anybody's wrath, but I'm gonna tell you my

393
00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: personal experience and things that I hear when I go

394
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 1: to seminars, and I listened to other texts, and other

395
00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 1: dealerships and other manufacturers. We'll talk about Toyota. I have

396
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,200
Speaker 1: a very good friend who is a service manager of

397
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: a local Toyota dealership. We go to lunch or i'm sorry,

398
00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: dinner two, three or four times a year, whenever our

399
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 1: schedules allow. As a matter of fact, I'm due to

400
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,600
Speaker 1: go to a dinner with Tony in September sometime, and

401
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: this conversation will probably come up again. In the conversation

402
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:08,280
Speaker 1: we had the last time. Was his words. He brought

403
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:10,479
Speaker 1: it up. He said, you know, we made a mistake

404
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:14,159
Speaker 1: when we extended the oil change interval out to seven

405
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,360
Speaker 1: to ten thousand miles on these cars. And I said,

406
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 1: how calm And he said, well, because you know, they're

407
00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:23,440
Speaker 1: good for the first sixty seventy thousand miles, but then

408
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 1: you can see that as they get older and the

409
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 1: oil tends to get more beat up, and it gets

410
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 1: it gets, you know, it gets a little bit stretched thin.

411
00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: Towards the end of the life. People get used to

412
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: seven thousand mile intervals and then they go to eight

413
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:37,640
Speaker 1: and they go to nine, then they go to ten,

414
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: then they go to eleven. And you can see these

415
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: engines now are starting to have oil consumption issues. The rings,

416
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: the rings are sticking. They've got a lot of you know,

417
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: they've made internal changes to the engine for better fuel economy,

418
00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 1: and some of those changes are coming back to bite Toyota.

419
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,840
Speaker 1: You know. It's it's it's thinking in terms of a

420
00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: ring slipping on. Don't know if your finger easily, you're slipping.

421
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 1: I don't know if your finger or hard um. You know,

422
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 1: it's got a float like it slips. I don't know

423
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 1: if your finger easily. But the oil gets gummy and

424
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: it tends to stick like that ring on your finger,

425
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,520
Speaker 1: and you have to put a little you know, a

426
00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,400
Speaker 1: butter or hout it to get it to slide off

427
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: type of a problem. And and that gumminess tends to

428
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: affect how the engine works and whether or not it

429
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: burns oil. You know, have you been doing oil changes

430
00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 1: on this problem every five thousand and see it? And

431
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 1: and to me, that's going to come back to be

432
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: your savior at this point, because here you are at

433
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:33,320
Speaker 1: a hundred thousand miles and whatever you spent extra and

434
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: oil changes is now going to promote the life of

435
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:39,919
Speaker 1: this car. So for the thousand dollars, what is it

436
00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:42,080
Speaker 1: that they want to do at this mileage for a

437
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: thousand dollars? You know, well, it's you know, it's like

438
00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: trained in sixty dollars to change spark clubs, transmission fluid

439
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:56,120
Speaker 1: and a couple other you know fluids, that differential fluid maybe.

440
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: And so that was the second part of my question.

441
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: Is you know there's no warranty on it. It can

442
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: I is it this the time maybe to take it

443
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,800
Speaker 1: to a good local shop instead of the dealer, or

444
00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 1: is you know this car better at the dealership because

445
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: that's all they do is you know, these Indians, you

446
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: know what? You know what the you know, you know

447
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,120
Speaker 1: what the real honest answer is, Susie, there's there's idiots

448
00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 1: and all kinds of repair shops all right. There's there's

449
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:30,920
Speaker 1: there's incompetence. There's incompetence everywhere, all right. You know, sometimes

450
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 1: I think I'm not really that good of a mechanic.

451
00:22:32,800 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 1: I just try, like heck every day, like so many

452
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,200
Speaker 1: other people out there, and I put my best foot forward.

453
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 1: But there are so many people out there that just

454
00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 1: don't care, and you know, there's there's stevery and deception

455
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: and all trades and practices. I've been in this business

456
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: most of my life and I've seen it all. So

457
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: I think it's about the relationship, all right. I think

458
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: that if you have a good relationship with that Toyota dealership,

459
00:22:57,840 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 1: that if you call up there and you've had the

460
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,359
Speaker 1: same service writer for the past couple of years and

461
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: they know, hey, it's Susie with the Venza, you know,

462
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,240
Speaker 1: and they've got your back, I think that's where you stay.

463
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 1: I don't think I don't think you change over price.

464
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: I think you change over you know, discomfort. I don't

465
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 1: think it's about how cheap the car is repaired. I

466
00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: think it's about how thorough and how correct. And you know,

467
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 1: to me, I don't have the warm fuzzies, so it uh,

468
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 1: I think it might be time for me to actually change,

469
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: you know. I think you know, and the warm fuzzies

470
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:34,120
Speaker 1: are exactly what you're looking for, all right, you know. Uh,

471
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,720
Speaker 1: It's it's funny. I started texting in the shop. I'll

472
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 1: tell you the story this way. We now do a

473
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 1: texting thing. We we I added on a program to

474
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,919
Speaker 1: the shop software management and I can text, I can

475
00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: actually tell you, Hey, Susie, your car is ready for

476
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 1: pick up. A Susie, your car needs this. He Susie,

477
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,159
Speaker 1: your car needs that. And when the guys were selling

478
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 1: me the package, they make this big, long, drawn out presentation.

479
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 1: And this way you can convince your customers and you

480
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 1: know there'll be no doubt in your mind, and you

481
00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:03,320
Speaker 1: know you can send them pictures and you can do this. Guys,

482
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: I don't have that problem. Well, how can you not

483
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: have that problem? Well, because I, honest to God, I

484
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,479
Speaker 1: really try to give every customer a warm, fuzzy all right.

485
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: I I don't want to work for people that I

486
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,160
Speaker 1: don't have a relationship with. And that's just the way

487
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: I am. You know, that's that's half the fun of

488
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,720
Speaker 1: of of fixing cars, and that you know you can

489
00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 1: you can work on the car and you can solve

490
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 1: the problem and you can put a smile on somebody's face.

491
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,320
Speaker 1: I always say, you know you need there. There's there's

492
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 1: three or four important people in your life. One of

493
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 1: them is a is a lawyer, the other is a doctor,

494
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,480
Speaker 1: and and the third one is is usually a mechanic

495
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,880
Speaker 1: or or somebody that you know work with their hands,

496
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 1: that can fix things around the house, that type of

497
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,439
Speaker 1: a thing. You need those kind of relationships to survive

498
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 1: in the world today. And you've got to have a

499
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,639
Speaker 1: mechanic that you can have a cup of coffee conversation

500
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 1: with that you can walk in and say, hey, here's

501
00:24:50,880 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 1: my card a hundred thousand miles. What do you reasonably

502
00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:56,280
Speaker 1: think it needs? What's it gonna cost? I just want

503
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 1: to get some idea of a budget. What do I

504
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:00,680
Speaker 1: need to do today, what do I need to do tomorrow?

505
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,120
Speaker 1: What can I expect you know, a year from now?

506
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,640
Speaker 1: And no crystal ball, no guarantees. Just give me your

507
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: best educated guests based on your time in the business.

508
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: My last comment to you, sus is going to be,

509
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: let's say you spend this three thousand dollars on the car,

510
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:22,520
Speaker 1: all right, and four months from now, for whatever reason,

511
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 1: the trans pops and it's four grand to put a

512
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:32,800
Speaker 1: trans in the car. What would you do? I don't know.

513
00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 1: At that point. I probably spend the extra four you know,

514
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 1: hoping right, and chances are you would, all right. The

515
00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,359
Speaker 1: the easiest way to decide about replacing a car, in

516
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,120
Speaker 1: my opinion, is to go out shopping for a new one.

517
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 1: It will cure you of everything that ails you either

518
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 1: that or will make you say, you know what, I

519
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: can really afford that? You know, it's it's it's forty

520
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 1: dollars and seventy two monthly payments. I can't really afford this,

521
00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:04,800
Speaker 1: you know. I've only got to put ten thousand down

522
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,959
Speaker 1: and then I've got, you know, seventy two or sixty

523
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: months worth of payments. And I can afford that. Because

524
00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:13,720
Speaker 1: where this conversation start, I said, cars are a lifestyle, right,

525
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: and it's it's it's it's a comfort thing, you know,

526
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:20,080
Speaker 1: but you've still got to have that relationship with the

527
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,400
Speaker 1: mechanic because sooner or later. Listen, the reason I never

528
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: go to the auto show in New York and it's

529
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,679
Speaker 1: it's it's a half hour from me. I never go

530
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: to the the auto show at jab It's. People say,

531
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 1: why not? I said, because I go in there. Everybody

532
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,480
Speaker 1: gets all excited. Here's all the new, best, shiny old

533
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:35,960
Speaker 1: boys in this need. You know when I look at YEP,

534
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 1: five years that'll be broken, that'll be broken, that'll be broken.

535
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 1: It's it's all the same stuff. There's nothing there that's

536
00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:43,240
Speaker 1: new and exciting. They haven't reinvent. They're just trying to

537
00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:47,120
Speaker 1: reinvent the same thing they've had for the past thirty years. Um.

538
00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,560
Speaker 1: I look at everything as sooner or later it's got

539
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,720
Speaker 1: a break and and and to me, you've got to

540
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: have that relations with somebody to fix it when it does.

541
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 1: All right, Susie, I wish you the best. I hope

542
00:26:57,800 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: that I hope that helps you. I hope that does

543
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:01,680
Speaker 1: it for you. You need more, shoot me an email

00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:12,239
Speaker 1: right after this. Hey, welcome back, Rona nading the car

548
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,600
Speaker 1: Doctor taking the I don't know. Is this the morning train?

549
00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: This is the Car Doctor train. This is and off

550
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: we go at a zero nine zero zero. You know,

551
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,240
Speaker 1: I hate to bring this up again because this this

552
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 1: subject is kind of we haven't really talked about this

553
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,480
Speaker 1: in a while. Somebody sent me a great article. Um,

554
00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,760
Speaker 1: the future is in the air. It's a car, it's

555
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: a plane, it's both at e a a air venture

556
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 1: out in Oshkosh. I thought, osh Gosh, was those kids

557
00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: cover roles that they made for the you know osh

558
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: gosh oshkosh pagosh osh gosh. It's not the Jetsons. But someday,

559
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,119
Speaker 1: perhaps sooner rather than later, flying cars will be as

560
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:49,000
Speaker 1: common as both cars and planes. Commuters stuck in rush

561
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: hour traffic always think, if I only had a plan,

562
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,119
Speaker 1: I could be there by now. Well, yeah, provided you

563
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:55,760
Speaker 1: could fly, um, provided you know, and then all the

564
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: you know other questions. The article goes on plenty of

565
00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: pilots flogged by bed weather, which they could just drive

566
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 1: their plane where they need to go. So you see

567
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 1: this is gonna be The grist is not always greener.

568
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 1: On the other side, I can see it coming. It's

569
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: not surprising the companies and entrepreneurs have tried to invent

570
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 1: a commercially viable flying car for decades. Still few vehicles,

571
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: the article goes on to say, are actually flying and

572
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,320
Speaker 1: driving today, and not a rolling off an assembly line anywhere,

573
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: but at e a a air venture or engineers and

574
00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 1: dreamers come to show up their ideas. A few prototypes

575
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 1: are on display as an initiative by rides sharing company

576
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,240
Speaker 1: Uber to move people around by air instead of car.

577
00:28:29,520 --> 00:28:32,040
Speaker 1: See I think Uber is the key to this. You've

578
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,440
Speaker 1: got to have deep pockets to pull off something like this,

579
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,480
Speaker 1: And I think what these inventors are doing up there

580
00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,360
Speaker 1: is trying to convince uber what they're exactly capable of.

581
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: One fellow here, um, Sanja dal If, I'm saying that right,

582
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 1: founder of Detroit Flying Cars, has created a car where

583
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,120
Speaker 1: the he's patented technology that telescope telescope turn and lock

584
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: the wings that compress into the front and back of

585
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: the two seed vehicle when it's on the road. He

586
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,000
Speaker 1: hasn't cope with the price because he's still testing the vehicle,

587
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,000
Speaker 1: which will feature an electric engine for driving. Here's the

588
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,480
Speaker 1: answer to that question we had folks about, you know,

589
00:29:05,480 --> 00:29:07,880
Speaker 1: will it run on octane fuel and so forth? But

590
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,120
Speaker 1: it will feature an electric engine for driving and an

591
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 1: aviation engine for flying, with a flight cruising speed of

592
00:29:13,320 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: a d miles an hour and a range of four

593
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:20,000
Speaker 1: indre miles. Sam boast Field bo U S F I. E. L. D.

594
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: Boast Field, CEO of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania based Samson Motors, this

595
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: week talked up his car plane hybrid, better known as

596
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: the Switchblade because the wings fold underneath the vehicle like

597
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 1: a knife. I guess the big problem here is what

598
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: do you do with the wings, you know, and think

599
00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: about it. You've got to make a car that flies,

600
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 1: You've got to have a place to store the wings.

601
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: The wings have to come out, and they can't fall

602
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,480
Speaker 1: off obviously when you're in the air, because then that

603
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:45,280
Speaker 1: would be a problem. Um, he's come up with what

604
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: he's claimed is the world's first flying sports car. But

605
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,480
Speaker 1: the real issue is, to me, it's gonna be cost

606
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: in dollars in safety. And Uber goes on in the

607
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: article discusses the fact that, you know, we all want

608
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,000
Speaker 1: to be in flying cars, but we've got to have

609
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,480
Speaker 1: the area and the wherewithal to take off. You know,

610
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: we've got to have the where's the runway gonna be?

611
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:06,840
Speaker 1: What are we gonna do. We're gonna be on route

612
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:10,040
Speaker 1: to a weight north and in in Bergen County, New Jersey,

613
00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 1: and we're just gonna get to the straight part. And

614
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 1: you know it's I mean, how bad would you freak

615
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,880
Speaker 1: out if you're on a long stretch of flat road

616
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: and the car in front of you the wings pop

617
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: out and buying off it goes. I mean, that's got

618
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 1: to be the craziest thing in the world. And then

619
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,720
Speaker 1: are we gonna do this at night. Are we gonna?

620
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 1: Are we gonna land at night? A night landing? I

621
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:39,320
Speaker 1: just don't see it. You know. Uncle Steve said a

622
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,160
Speaker 1: plane is only as good as the pilot flying it right.

623
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 1: And he would always talk about how you've got to

624
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: get into an airplane and try this the next time

625
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:50,080
Speaker 1: you're flying. When you get into the airplane, you know,

626
00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,720
Speaker 1: everybody's standing in front of you, and they're greeting you.

627
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 1: When you walk on, and you see the flight attendants

628
00:30:57,200 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 1: and and you see the captain. Talk to the captain

629
00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: a minute. I asked everybody to do this, talk to

630
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,200
Speaker 1: the captain. We did this way. We went to Vegas

631
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, and to drove everybody knuts.

632
00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 1: We always got up to the captain. I'd say we

633
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,480
Speaker 1: talked about the flight and this and that, and I'd say,

634
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 1: who's the best pilot, you know? And he says, I am.

635
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,000
Speaker 1: And that's the catch. You've got to think you're the

636
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,400
Speaker 1: best pilot up there. You know. I've got people that

637
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,200
Speaker 1: come into the shop all day long and they go,

638
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,080
Speaker 1: you know, I hate cars, I'm really not a great driver,

639
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,560
Speaker 1: and now we're gonna let them fly. You know, what's

640
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: that all about? Are you a great pilot. No, I'm

641
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:30,880
Speaker 1: a I'm a terrible driver, but I'm a better pilot

642
00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,080
Speaker 1: because there's less things that hit in the air. Yeah. Sure,

643
00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 1: until it lands on my head anyway, We'll see where

644
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:37,560
Speaker 1: that goes. I just wanted to let you know that

645
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 1: E a a venture out in Oshkosh that really is

646
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: um it's it's really gonna happen flying cars. Here we

647
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 1: go again, zero nine nine zero zero. I'm gonna pull

648
00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 1: over and take a pause, but I'm doing this on

649
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 1: the ground. I'm Rona Nading the car Doctor. We're back

650
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: right after this. Hey, Rona Nading the car Doctor. Rolling

651
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 1: along here at zero nine nine zero zero. A quick

652
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:03,360
Speaker 1: comment about scan tools. I was speaking to the mactool

653
00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:05,640
Speaker 1: guy this week and we were talking. He's repping another

654
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: line of scan tools. I don't know, something made in Italy.

655
00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:13,120
Speaker 1: It works on Maserati's Ferraris, all the high end sports cars,

656
00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,120
Speaker 1: all the all the you know, all the exotics. And

657
00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:18,920
Speaker 1: they were thinking of getting into the US market and

658
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 1: you know, starting to work on Ford and Chrysler and

659
00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: GM and so forth. And I told Greg, I said,

660
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 1: you know, you've got to understand the scan tool market.

661
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: I think it's it's limited at this point in the game.

662
00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:39,160
Speaker 1: I really think that there's less for there's less shops buying,

663
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: there's less shops out there, all right. I think the

664
00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 1: number of repair shops is declining. But I also think

665
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: that by now most repair shops. You know, this is

666
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 1: like um Back in the fifties and the sixties, GM

667
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 1: figured if they got people locked into their cars, they

668
00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 1: would work their way up the line and eventually on

669
00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 1: a Cadillac, but they stayed with the GM brand. I

670
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,320
Speaker 1: think the snap On guys are staying with snap On.

671
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 1: The Launch guys are staying with Launch. The OTC guys

672
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: are staying with OTC. You know. I think it's really

673
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 1: hard to make market penetration. It will be interesting to

674
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 1: see where in the next couple of years, with all

675
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: the changes in technology, what company can afford to develop

676
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 1: a better scan tool and actually put it into the

677
00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:23,280
Speaker 1: hands of a technician at a price that allows both

678
00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 1: the shop and the company selling it make a profit.

679
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm watching scan tools. Let's see where it goes. Until

680
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: the next time. I'm Ronanadian the car doctor, reminding you

681
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 1: good mechanics aren't expensive, they're priceless. See you
