Automotive DIYers can use my channel to get the help or inspiration to work on their own cars. I am not a mechanic, nor an engineer. However, I have been fixing most issues on my cars for all my adult life. I do so because it gives me great satisfaction to save my hard-earned money. And mostly because I am a gearhead and a perfectionist. I also realize that there is a lot of “simple” fixes that you might need to do, that don’t have good videos out there. Let me know what you think and ideas for videos that you’d like to see, and I’ll get them done!

I have a Cadillac deville 2005 says communication error pls help
Yet another incorrect video about replacing these arms! You MUST tighten the opposite end to the ball joint with the bushing loaded (ie with the weight of the car on it) otherwise you will just tear up the new bushing! 😡
Thank you for making this video! I just changed mine out tonight.
With all that room when you tip the tank up you still cant get at the radiator cap without taking the gas tank completely off ????? F my life😭....
I think you don't need to remove it. I can't remember, but I probably removed it so I could film
Will do mine this winter. 2003, not been adjusted once. I'm sure it needs it, did hear some clicking on hot day ride. Runs like a top besides that! Thank you!
Tranny with TC drain plug is newer 7g-tronic+. This being 2006, you have old one. Also, there are bunch of drains that like to clog. Once they do , water fills various cavities and sometimes ruin electronic boxes.
Thanka for the info!
are you going to have a final video on this? I will love to see the results.
I will do a single final video with a lot of things. Since the last one I replaces both front wheel bearings, upper control arms, lower suspension bushings, purge valve, spark plug cables, valve cover gaskets, ac compressor, condenser, dryer, pressure valve and did a flush in the ac lines. I also did the brake master cylinder, brake lines in the front, cleaned it up and a bunch of other simple stuff. It's an awesome daily now
@@dcfgarage I have the same car in silver and my oil level light is showing up on my screen after a month of oil change and yesterday did not want to go. so I'm to figure out what's going on today.
hmm, PS fluid for R-class is usually ATF-based (Q1460001), not CHF.
You're absolutely right. I just checked the repair manual and it says ATF 236.3 spec. I've spent on chf for nothing. I'll swap to atf and do a video on it
Hey, I have one of those. You were partly right, R500 did have ventilated rear brakes but for facelifted model (sporting 388hp 5.5L M273 engine). Looking forward to learn more.
Thanks for the info
Nice video. I'm trying to get my clutch to work again after a master res replacement and slave rebuild. The system can hold 30lbs of pressure all day. The lever feels good, but she just refuses to disengage the trans when I squeeze nor will roll with the clutch in and engine off. Wanna buy an 03 vtx ?
You either have air in the master cylinder or the rebuilt one is bad. Sometime a micro bubble can cause that
Excellent video. My R500 rear shocks started leaking fluid. This video gives me confidence to try and replace them myself. Did you need an alignment after replacing the shocks?
Thanks. No need for alignment after
Can a bad pcv valve trigger a check engine light specifically for the 2014 tc scion?
Thanks, man. Yea, that release strap on driver side is a hew inches short, ya think? I used a wire to fish through the little strap by feel (couldn't see to do it), then pulled it up -- wa-la. Made a wire strap extension. Your vid helped me know where the latch was.
Headlight Cool! Kuriakin?
I don't remember, sorry
Thanks for the excellent video is there a computer on the bike that has to read certain sensors for the smog
I don't think it's that sophistocated
Did you ever fix the P0741 code? Did it come back after you fixed the secondary air issue?
It did
Fantastic video thanks for all your help
Thanks
Excellent
Thanks!
Question, anyone who knows... I bought a new PCV. I blew into one side horizontally (the way it is installed on my engine) and it had an air leak. Vertically, there was no air leak. I returned it and got another one, but the same issue? Maybe my lungs are not as strong as an engine! What do I do? Order another one? On my engine (2017 toyota camry) it is a difficult R&R.
I believe you are overthinking this. The new part is likely fine
@dcfgarage hahaha! You maybe right! I just hate to waste 1.5hrs!! It will be replaced 4th of July weekend.
Does the 07 vtx1300c have the same system?
It does
what is the tool to take out the rivets ? thank you.
Did the PCV replacement remedy the oil consumption issue? My friend just acquired a 2012 Camry with 250,000 miles. Runs great but oil was quite low on dipstick.
Would this cause an issue with steering. Make it feel like it’s sticking
Thanks for the video. Removed everything tonight. Will install block offs tomorrow morning!
😂😂😂 I love your DIY project and how to tighten up properly 😂
Lol!
My hero! I keep getting talked to at security checkpoints about dimming my lights. Thank you!
Happy it helped
What is the wire connection part called?
Pigtail adapter
I'm doing this to the 2nd vtx1800 that I've own; love it the first time, had to do it again. Thank you.
Great video keep in mind 2024 Ford no longer uses blue grease it’s white now 👍🏻
If your headlights have heavy oxidation and old cracking clearcoat, Don't look no further than this 3M restoration kit, Second to none!! Just follow the instructions properly it's fool proof!!!👍
Absolutely love my 2012 camry se 2.5L, but she's low ecery oil change. Looks like a new pcv valve is in order! Time for a transmission filter drain/fill, brake bleeding, coolent flush, spark plugs, rotor and brakes, ac top off, lower control arms, sway bar links, altimator check, interior shampoo and deep clean, all at 150k. Caught the stutter issue in time and got the torque converter changed at 74k on the recall 1k short of the cut-off ! Oh and the dreaded front bumper bars that holds the sides in need to be replaced 😅
All I did was add fluid.Put new reservoir caps on VTX 1800N and then no clutch? Brake is fine
I fucking hate the stupid, super annoying very loud car sound at the beginning of the video. Fail.
Isn't dialectric grease an INSULATOR? Meaning it doesn't allow the electrical circuit to connect? Neither ground nor power? Isn't dialectric grease meant to be used as a topical protection and not to be used between connections? Where am I wrong?
Did it help?
In my case, yes
Thank you, your video was very useful
Happy it helped

Really appreciate this thorough tutorial, i was able to change my voltage regulator within an hour an half just by following the steps you did. Meanwhile my first attempt was changing it from under the car and that took over 4 hours to do the first time around. You were right, it is much easier to do it from inside / top of the car!
Great that you managed to change it!
Are you a mechanic or DIY ? A mechanic told me there are signs that your pcv valve is bad like high idling , oil leaks and air leaks . Are these signs a fool proof sure way to tell if pcv valve is bad ? I've got oil leaks btt not the other signs . Major pain to replace mine . I've got to take off imtake manifol and a few other things or pay a shop . 11 Camry 2ARFE 2.5 L It's right by the intake manifold and HYDRAULIC POWER STEERING PUMP . DO I NEED TO REPL:ACE IT ?
Not a mechanic. But the only way yo know 100% if it's bad is to remove it and inspect
Excellent video dude, you save my life 🙂
That's awesome! Thanks!
New gasket code?
Do led tail lights use the same plug as halogen tail lights?
Likely the same plug, but probably not just plug and play
I used a box wrench to pull up on the latch pin. That pin has no head on it so, next time I will do the same.
I thought some sort of lube was placed in the boot. Am I mistaken?
Never seen it
The db rating is accurate. You cannot take a db rating inside a garage. The reverberations bouncing off the walls will amplify the sound level. Db is measured in a free air environment.
Thanks
Did it affect your mpg(gas mileage)
It did not and should not. Unless your IWE has failed and is engaged all the time. In that case, the MPG should go up by 1mpg. However, I've heard that is exactly what ford is doing as a fix to this issue on these older models.
I have the same bike after sitting over the winter my handle feels loose without much pressure on the clutch and I cannot operate it correctly including finding neutral even when squeezed in all the way do you think bleeding it would resolve this issue and make the clutch lever firm again?
Either that or your master cylinder went bad. It happens on these bikes
Thank bro ! Gonna try to fix my 2016 .
Happy it helped!
Oh, is this for a Two wheel, rear wheel drive F-150? Is the 4x4 F-150 different? Have not been under it yet. Thanks!!!
This is for the f150s and 250s with the one piece drive shaft. Mine is a 4x4, but if it's a 4x2 with the same driveshaft, it applies. I believe these driveshafts come with the max tow package that includes the bigger differential.
