She went to a new home back in April I think..but ty for the nice words!

Sorry for your loss...

@@BaldadonisMike2021 Thank you. Her loss 2 months ago here in So.Calif was the lowest point ever by far. Everyone goes thru it at some point but it is rough. It still is. I've already gotten an offer to sell the Fit but I think I'll keep it in her memory. It's a good car that I would have no qualms over driving it across the country.

Enjoy ,you have low miles

@@BaldadonisMike2021 i think i have another 300k on it

Glad you are enjoying it! Fun cars! I have a 07 M6 convertible I have to button up for a video soon

Glad you enjoy your Mini! You think it's bad on fuel?

@@BaldadonisMike2021 Yes it's got a 50lt fuel tank on average I manage to get 400km on a tank.That averages 8km/1lt.For a 1.6 it's pretty thirsty. Given that's only stop start driving on the long distance journeys I will average 11km/1lt. Sorry for the metrics I live in 🇿🇦

300k? Awesome!

@@BaldadonisMike2021 yep tsa courier contractor average 70/90 k a year . Average 500 k on my 2007 Ford focus .. both never burned oil bg moa etc.. other things brought them down.. I'm certain I'll hit 700 k in my Honda no problem will see thanks..

I agree! Thanks for reaching out !

I dont know..did you lol..car sold months ago

They are common but very little leaking ..just have it looked at and wipe down on oil changes!

@@BaldadonisMike2021 also I heard about some oil cooler line can burst and obviously kill the engine. How common is this? Just trying to weigh my options

turned out to alternator and replaced in another video..

so you just changed the part without having a engine code pop up so you can read what was wrong ?

Hell yeah!

Miles on it? Any major repairs beside the basic maintenance ?

@@BaldadonisMike2021 118k, I did the headlights like you, updated the stereo head unit, added Michelin Pilot Sports. only issue....1 blown front door speaker LOL.

Thats great !Change the trans fluid?

Thats great!

Boston and New Hampshire craigslist /FB -

Go with your instinct!

If you can get the price down on the FJ.....But 2 doors vs 4 etc..I had both..FJ for me because I dont really need 4 doors ,no kids etc

They can be expensive -it is a Porsche after all..but find a good garage that will treat you right and you can have a great car with repairs being fair..so it cost me $1300.00 for this service ..tires was $ 1000.00 alone

good luck with that leak!

Yes it is! You still have that VW ?

@@BaldadonisMike2021 yes sir! My daughter is driving it now. Just hit 170,000 miles!

@@MrSizewise awesome!

Thank you Soo much for sharing. Very detailed video. Very much appreciated.

Dude it's crazy easy you must be someone without any skills or knowledge of cars? Im sure there are plenty of videos that do step by step..

@@BaldadonisMike2021 I’ll check other videos, thanks, yep, no skills

Wasn't being disrespectful when I said that....just wanted you to know that..But I understand where you are coming from!

@@BaldadonisMike2021 No problem, just am observation, looking for more substance and direction. Keep up the good work!

Great tip!

Thanks to the reply but can you tell me why my 6 bank pulls a code replaced coil and plug got this inspection coming.up

@@martycaldwell7197 maybe VVT solenoid ? run rough at all?

you have paperwork on repairs?

That's my water downed Boston talk! I been out of Boston for 21 years! lol

Thank you! I sold it 2 weeks ago, new owner loves it!

Good man!

Can that be turned off? I did it to me a few times today its annoying ..

@@BaldadonisMike2021 so, I thought you could turn it off in the computer screen (the one next to the tach on the right), but now that I search the web I see a bunch of angry people saying it can’t be disabled.😂 It’s supposed to engage when you press the brake a second time when you’ve come to a full halt, or once you come to a full stop if you push the pedal down harder.

miles?

@@BaldadonisMike2021 both are 19x,xxx miles close to 200k.

that's great! you have many many miles of happiness ! Enjoy

I seen that w Scotty he didnt like the car lol..it did look like it came from a junkyard ,it was beat looking! lol..I just sold it last week! New owners love it! ( I buy to resell)

@@BaldadonisMike2021 Somebody has a great car. It’s not for everyone.

If my uncle dont buy the GTS I think the rear pads/trans fluid /walnut blasting(valves cleaned) fix the bent rim..its not that bad Im just anal on my wheels being smooth! I ll know soon.....thanks for the comment!

Well I just got it so I really havent driven it too aggressively -yet- I think you have to be in the RPM to get it moving..but for the size and weight I thinks its ok..Im not impressed myself to be honest -but it's a nice cruiser for sure! My BMW X5 Diesel (tuned) I think was faster ...again I havent driven it aggressively ...

You have a long way to hit 300k lol .. enjoy it!

Its fun if its not a daily in traffic ..but back when I was younger I didnt mind ..But still fun truck..but for me..I would grab a auto on the next 1 (unless I get a great deal w a 6 speed lol)

Sport Package ? auto or 6 speed? Send picture! Mikebaldadonis@gmail.com

I just googled it..looks nice ! Enjoy!

Last but not least I subscribed to this RUclips channel of yours after checking this vid out. Frankly, I did in fact want to search for this make and model w/ an mt driveline on y.t. Did a search a tiny bit ago... and Boom! Luckily this vid popped up. Cheers.

thanks for the kind message! Are you looking to buy a 6 speed or you already have 1?

@@BaldadonisMike2021 Hi. To answer your question: (a) no, I don't own a 6 speed (either auto or 'sticker' [my nickname for manual rides] . ). Have I ever owned car that featured a 'standard' trans ? Yes siree bob. 1. a green 94' Acura Vigor w/ 5 speeds and 3 pedals. Trouble free until it hit 100,000 miles. Then it became a "moneypit" (I heard the stick shift version of a 2001 Honda Prelude type SH (the top of the line prelude versions exclusive to it's final year or so for that generation, and period, also become unreliable after 100k miles. The Honda Vigor/Acura Vigor stick shift after that many miles or so may be a ghost that decided to haunt that Prelude version (?). Anyway, someone hit my vigor from behind and damaged it wicked-faulty style, so I sold it for parts. I was actually semi willing to pay for any and all repairs because I cared for it. However, now I have an anti money pit acquisition attitude because of 2. my next car: _ a 2008 suburu imprezza wagon with a 5 speed gearbox. That one's dealership (independent) had added a different subu engine, actually. Anyway, whereas my vig's shifter kicked azz all day long in many ways, that one was not a good shifter at all. I sold it after 2 years of owning. I am interested in getting a different sticker, however not one where Tons of people claim it's bad for x, y, and z reasons (although even then I am actually still willing to see if I agree). For example, literally lots of buyers (plus major car magazine writers for several magazines) say the manual tranny's in Volvo C70 coupes are faulty for a variety of reasons. The Lexus 2006 to 2013 Lexus IS250 man. gearbox is sourced from Toyota Tacoma small-ish trucks and wasn't overly modified for car duties, let along a vehicle who's sights were set on cars like BMW 3 series, Merc C classes, Audi A4's, ect. Long answer, I admit. I promise I don't always "talk a persons ear off" here or in person, actually :-).

@@BaldadonisMike2021 Say Mike _ I have a question for you it's a car, 2 part answer trivia question/ pop quiz deal. Without internet searching for the answers, simply put, can you name world's first and second cars available with a 7 speed manual transmission?

Congrats on your new Es350! Change the oil sooner then later(4-5k miles) and change the trans fluid -then enjoy!

I think 1A Auto parts quick struts TRQ- Old video now and off hand I think TRQ
