buying a car? perception is reality
Просмотров 133 года назад
hey! buying a car? is it bright and shiny and has almost no damage and everything looks like it's been deliberately well maintained? chances are it is a decent car. but beware, if the car you're looking at looks rough but "ohh the engine is good" rings out from your seller, take caution. if they weren't willing to do the work for some stuff they definitely didn't do the major stuff

      This is why I advise people put a mark (white nail polish works well) on the housing lined up with a mark on the filter housing - that way, when tightening, you'll know when to stop when tightening.

    Why are you using a cheap filter you're not using a mobile one or a wix seems odd to me this is why I don't bring my car to a shop to get an oil change done low quality Parts because it's the easiest way for people to make money also in a GDI motor you're definitely want to change your oil every 3000 miles use good oil use a good filter maybe an oil additive personally I like Lucas but to each their own if they want to add one or not the filter is the main thing along with a quality oil just seems kind of weird to me

      While I agree and I am using Mobil 1 FS Right meow, a 3 oz per quart dose of motor kote and Mobil 1 20k filter. I definitely had to shoot this video after work and my oil didn't come in time 😅 GDI engine will always deposit on your intake valves so either way that's always gonna be a worry. Gonna have to media blast my runners here soon so I'll be posting that video.

  • @dugsitowski719
    @dugsitowski719 3 года назад

    My 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee is pushing 200K with not one tranny issue to date. Of course I change it's fluid every 20 thousand or so miles with a generous dose of Lucas additive (my 900KW got a hair over 1 million miles with it so now it's in my Jeep). I'm assuming this video refers only from shifting on the move from drive to reverse, right? Coming down Pikes Peak say, you'd almost have to drop an automatic from drive to 2nd or low to avoid glazing the brake pads. Whenever it's necessary for me to do this, just as I push the shift lever out of drive, I give the accelerator pedal a little goose to get the 2nd gear planetaries to syncronize with the higher speed so there's no jarring clunk. But, common sense would indicate that shifting from a forward drive mode to a backward reverse is just asking for a substantial repair bill down the road. Modern tranny's are built really well these days, but not that well to take such prolonged mistreatment. Remember the old oil filter commercial "Pay me now or pay me later"?

  • @bolt_husky
    @bolt_husky 3 года назад

    Not true. Same as holding on a hill without the brakes. The vehicle coasting in to drive from reverse puts less strain on it than a spirited half-throttle launch from a stop sign. Further, the torque converter has no idea that the wheels aren’t spinning because you’re on a hill or because the brakes are holding the wheels. By that ruhtarded logic, holding the car stopped with the brakes is just as bad. Even further, drifting thru the torque converter (i.e. rolling backwards down a hill) in drive is also less strenuous than stomping on the throttle and putting 400ft pounds of torque thru it from a stop. None of that will hurt a trans, nor will a burnout since you’re just stalling the TC.

    Bro, I jam my truck from D to R and back a hundred times a day, it's got over 30k miles since I bought it this spring, gear slam doesn't kill transmissions, shitty solenoids and not changing the fluid and filter does.

    • @tjturner4461
      @tjturner4461 3 года назад

      Nah just keep doing that and failure will happen an it will probably happen when the fluid get serviced. a keen eye will see it in the filter if its stuffed up with friction material and or metal powder

    • @bolt_husky
      @bolt_husky 3 года назад

      Same lol. I’ll bet he puts out a video saying hard shifts in an auto is bad too 😂😂. But the only thing that will kill an auto is low/no fluid and heat. Watch a neutral drop video with the Grand Cherokee; spinning all 4 at redline shifting from drive to reverse each time with over 250000 miles on it. People are just ignorant lol.

    • @markk3652
      @markk3652 3 года назад

      Well, 30k isn't much as far as milage goes. The wear that's happened already will for sure get you before 100k. The statement about fluid /filter changes is dead on accurate tho. The simple heat related degradation of the fluid is something most can't even conceive of, add to it the microscopic particles of metal and clutch plate contaminants. A filter can only catch as much as it was designed to.

      @@markk3652 it has over 200k total, I'm saying I've heard dropped it for the last 30k, as long as you're not flying backwards at 30mph the torque converter absorbs the drag, that's what it's there for, I'm a certified mechanic, you're not going to win this argument
