Hi, I'm Mark and have been working on my own cars for about 15 years now. I have now amassed quite a bit of experience , to start sharing some of it, with yourselves. This includes changing spark plugs right through to a head gasket. Whatever comes my way, I hope to share with you. There has been a lot of frustration,blood and euphoria, to get to this point. It's not all been plain sailing, but I saved shed loads of money, doing it. Keep your comments coming and keep them constructive as well. We're always learning!!!!

Thank you, you’re a life saver 😃
@@DagmaraKrakow you’re welcome
Will the keyfob work straight away with the new battery inserted or will I have to reregister the key.
Should work straightaway.👍
that little clip you droped down and fished up whit a magnet . Do you have the name of that beacuse i didnt have a good fishing luck 😂
It’s a grommet, most hardware stores have them.
@drivewaydiyer6504 thank you 😄
Perfect...got it. Thanks
@@jodyfriesen9005 glad it helped.
Does anyway now if main beam on passenger side as its own fuse has changed bulb but still not working
If it’s only one not working, check the bulb, check connection, is there 12 volts getting to it, check grounds aswell.
Thank you, I kept looking near the fuses on drivers side 🫠
Crazy place to put it, looked like an after thought.🙄
Very good videos. Why Peugeot put two sensors for the temperature of cooling fluid ?
Not unusual for carmakers to do that. If one fails, i normally change both , because the other one won’t be far behind.
@drivewaydiyer6504 Thank you very much. I will change both of them.
Thank you! 😊
You’re welcome.👍
BROOO THANK YOU!!!!!! THE 105K DINGA LIVES TO DRIVE ANOTHER DAY!!!! I PRAY FOR BETTER DAYS COME YOUR WAY BRO! God bless man!
God bless you too, really happy for you.
A piece of plastic near motor has chipped off on mine after trying to switch on wiper when frozen. Don't know if I can get arm and blade back on. Ha. But, thanks for video with similar problem. Bty, bolt on mine frozen solid too. I must go to mechanic.
I feel for you, it’s a terrible design. You could possibly cut it off, but be careful of the screen.
@drivewaydiyer6504 thanks
Do we know the approximate resistance of the aerial and lead measured at the socket , ie. Between the solid conductor up to the dipole and back down the screen 😊
@@558vulcanxh no I don’t, this was just a continuity test. I’d go on a channel specific to your issue. Thanks for commenting though.

I have a f150 2023 any ideas how to disabled airbag system
Have you checked your glovebox or on the end of the dashboard to see if it’s in there? You can normally use your key to turn it.sometimes it’s on the centre console aswell.
@drivewaydiyer6504 checked everywhere nothing to find
Normal,wäre von der Mitte wie eine Schnecke nach außen?? Und Fest, von Außen nach Innen! Grüße vom Bastler..

Hi, My blower only runs on number 4 but is very noisy, any thoughts. Gordon
You need to check the voltage at the connection to the fan, to see if there’s voltage from each setting. Sounds like the fan could be failing on the lower settings. Could be the resisters failing aswell. Have you done all your recalls on the car ?
Its a LHD Opel badged vehicle I brought back from Spain, so have no idea about recalls. Will try the connectors etc thanks.
It sounds like the fan, but it’s important to check the wiring and resistor.
How did you retire the botton hose? It is small space to introduce the hands... Sorry for my English I am not native speaker
There’s a good chance that it seized , if you’re replacing the radiator, then buy a new hose too.
the Ah is the umph, not the voltage.
Made the difference 👍
Iv got this and use it on site. It's even better with a makita battery on it.
I’ll check that out, did the battery give it more torque?
thankyou for help
You’re welcome
Very helpful. Thanks. I just need to build a wall 👍
😂you’d better get your trowel out then. Glad it helped.
You're in a right old hurry there mate, slapping and banging!!!!take your time. oh and by the way MIND YOUR TOOTSIES🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
@@andym5338 it was supposed to be a quick job and ended up being all morning. Point taken on the sliders.😂😂😂
If you break the plastic glass any way of replacing instead of changing the rear light completely has break my plastic glass on mine
You need to replace the unit. There’s plenty on eBay at a reasonable price.
MADE IN CHINA or TAIWAN?
China, I think. Haven’t used much to be honest. My battery powered stuff, holds up really well.
Thank you, It worked for me 🎉😅
@@user_sb2uu4do glad it helped.
Thanks for the video, did you have to disconnect the battery before unplugging the unit?
No I didn’t . I only normally disconnect the battery when there’s a risk of shorting to ground or doing electrical repairs. These are just plug and play. Obviously if you feel safer disconnecting the battery, then go ahead. Make sure you have all relevant codes etc for radios.
Hey. I have a opel astra h 2007. Error code p0110 show intake air temperature sensor circuit 1. I did change it. But the code is still there.
Check the connector and the wiring. The wiring at the connector can be quite fragile.
Zafiras are becoming shit cars nowadays 😂
Mine has been pretty good upto now. But its days are probably numbered.😂
@@drivewaydiyer6504 yeah lol
i guess we dont get an uptade with it switched to high power rather than low power as you have it on here on the video?
I’ll do a short on it , I’m not convinced it’s running right. It keeps flicking back to low. Watch this space. I’ve just bought a makita, which is class. I’ll do a review on it.
100% load of shit tool ... don't waste your money folks. Spend on a Kielder, you won't be disappointed.
To be honest it’s been great so far, for minor work. But I agree , I wouldn’t buy it for anything else. I’ve got a makita impact for wheels and suspension work.
If ypur car doesn't have a cabin air filter take a can of Lysol and spray it in your ac intake vents by your windshield wipers. This will kill alot of mold
Great input , thankyou.
brilliant great help thank you 😊
You’re welcome.
@@drivewaydiyer6504 wicked my mate 👍
Thanks, very helpful! Simple and easy to follow!
@@GoodChemistry glad it helped.
Mine spin without coming out. How about those?
It may have broke, could be the fitting itself that’s broken. Might be worth, taking the light fitting down and having a closer look. You might need to take it apart.
Is this the zafira A or B? 😊
Zafira b.
Was gna buy some so i can clean/ seal my car underbody myself. Think i wont bother watching this video and will try 2 jacks instead. Great helpful vid
They’re great, when they work, but don’t really use them. I use axle stands, aswell.
Thanks 😊
@@davidtrowell9040 you’re welcome
Great video thank you! Just used this.
Glad it helped.
coolant is very toxic so you should protect your hands and make sure nothing spills into the environment.
Great input, always take waste down to your local disposal centre.
You've just saved me time and anger, thank you and all people like you who bother to make videos like this.
You’re so welcome and we’ve been there.😂 glad it helped.
Thanks mate, this helped me out today 👍
Glad you got something from it.
Ok for home mechanic
It’s ok, get something that’s bigger and better for bigger jobs, like suspension etc
Hi . Thanks for these videos. My 2009 Zafira b occasionally cuts out at idle. ( when im slowing down to a stop) Also imo it is jerky in 1st gear. I think its the fuel pump.or grit in a jet somrwhere? How can i sort it pls.
@@highgatehandyman6479 ok, do a pedal test to see if there’s any codes. Might be a vacuum leak or faulty egr. See if there’s any codes first.
@drivewaydiyer6504 appreciated think I'll buy a code reader gadget

I have a 2001 Zafira A Diesel with 265,000 miles. Amazing car, never had a clutch problem but know I should have changed the fluid years ago. Will try your reverse bleed system, wish me luck🤞
Hopefully you’ll be successful, make sure everything’s airtight, keep an eye on the reservoir, make sure it doesn’t overflow or drop if there’s an issue.
Your a star mate ...thanks ....
You’re welcome.🙏
Thinking about drilling out the shaft and tapping a thread in it, drill a hole through door handle and bolting it on
Any reason why, you’d probably need thread lock on it, to hold.
I have been to multiple garages and all of them have said my suspension is fine yet i get knocking sounds when turning the wheel, could what you're describing be the issue? i have a video i uploads to shorts that shows the sound it makes if you or anyone is able to have a look i'd appreciate it ruclips.net/user/shortsGqn2FG6aCJU
Check your tie rods and ends, sounds like there’s a bit of give in the steering.
thanks for this it helped test my Meriva B. I have already replaced the clock spring and the horn works tested relay also thats working so looks like i have an isse from the rear of the clock spring to the fuse box.
You may have a CIM unit issue, that’s normally the problem, if it’s working from the fuse box.
@@drivewaydiyer6504 Try the switch side of relay to ground
Is this from the outside or it cracked also from inside? I mean, are there layers? And you only replace the outside layer that is broken?
It seemed to be cracked all the way through, but there was no leaking. I supposed it’s re-enforced and designed not to shatter. It’s deemed as structural rather than glass window. So it’s deemed as panel repair on your insurance.
Thank you for the answer. I went to the local nissan and they told me they will check the insurance. It needs to replace only the glass part he says. He will call me. He says there will be no problem with rain or any damage from the current crack. It is the same with yours, apart the 2 left and right. And it starts at the same position as yours.
Let me know how you get on. The job is more than replacing the glass, they come as framed assembly, there’s a lot of work replacing them.
@@drivewaydiyer6504 I have also seen something that i thing will be similar. ruclips.net/video/efP4zt8UjYE/видео.html
Right to the point, Thank you for the quick tip. And thanks for not wearing rubber gloves like all them fake pussies on youtube.
