Sorry that your scanner got crunched. Years ago, a friend was working on his car (1980 chevy Nova) when the hood unexpectedly closed on his hand. He was working on the car alone and was actually trapped for around a half an hour until someone came over and opened the hood to free his hand. I doubt if anything like that ever happened to you. Thanks for all the great videos Alex.
So far mine‘s been pretty solid my 2021 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk change the oil every 2500 miles at the dealer tire rotation anything it needs I do so far it’s been solid
Seen many hemis crash valves. To prevent this, Open the hood and have someone start it, if you hear a tap for like 3 seconds, then stops. Get it serviced.
The few ive seen kill the cam also wiped out journals on cam holders and bearing on lower end. Even with a lite bit of cam wear. Noticed lot of bearing debris in oil.
@AlexTheCarDoctor I have been binging your videos and I hear the scanner heartbreak in the recent ones.That scanner appears to just be an android device. I am curious if you plug a mouse and or keyboard into the USB port, does it let you control it? If so, you can probably get away with using it like that, particularly if you value the functionality. If you pickup a Logitech K400 keyboard, it has the mouse and keyboard built into one dongle. Mount it to a cart and you could almost roll with it 😂
Ayo Ill take your scanner if you still got it! It looks like the scanner has an hdmi out for a monitor and usb ports for maybe a mouse. I have a portable monitor that would be perfect for that scanner, and I need a decent scanner.
Just would like to know I am looking at a Ram 1500 with the V6 will it have the issue ? It has about 60k on it. I only ask because I don't know of the engine has been updated as its a 2019.
This is true. 💯 I normally do these three things: touch the purge valve to feel if it’s activating, I sometimes unplug it to deactivate completely so I can listen to the vehicle, or use my scanner to see if it’s on, if it’s on I turn it off with the scanner to listen to the engine.
Really love the channel and enjoyed this video. I have a 2018 Durango GT with 47k miles and I feel like a I hear a slight noise similar to this but could be something else. Will get it looked at. You guys seemed to do a kick a** job. How much did you charge out of curiosity?
IDK how you isolated that lifter noise vs the evap valve ticking from the previous video...just from experience Or even from an exhaust manifold ticking I'm just a DIYer so learning something from your experiences with this pentastar / Fiat engine Dorman does make a decent oil filter housing and cooler out of cast aluminum, so that is a good aftermarket part Also heard that oil filter housing doesn't have an anti drain back valve? So, is the lack of oil during cold starting is the main cause of why these are developing valve lifter ticking?
I normally find the valve and touch it to make sure it’s not ticking or simply unplug it so it won’t activate. I also look at my scanner to see if it’s activated.
So I have a great question with us growing up in the '90s Of course I've had Chrysler vehicles all my life any range from a LeBaron to the neon to three intrepids My family's owned all sorts of Chrysler vehicles we've never ever had any of these problems with the overhead valves when they first came out like the first generation 3.5 l the 2.0 liter that went in the Neon Stratus lower base cars never heard of of this ever Now I mean across the board this is all your hearing about from all the manufacturers What is with this Why have they gone to a different design of the top of the motor and not like as a 1993 to 2010 Chrysler 3.5 l? Mind you my 1997 had 250,000 mi on it when I got rid of it same with my neon original engines and original transmission!
The only thing I liked about the early to mid 1990s Dodge/Chrysler/ Plymouth vehicles is some came with non interference engines. So when the timing belt snaps, just realign the timing marks and slap on the new belt 😅
@@ricebike You still see them all on the roads today I have two 30-year-old Chrysler vehicles still running! Yep when my intrepids timing belt broke put a new one back on and she ran like new!
@@ricebike I'm sure it was a 3.0 liter made by Mitsubishi which was complete utter 💩 One of my mom's caravans had that engine in it never experience head gasket problems with any of my vehicles but you have to realize like my sister's Voyager was a 1995 Plymouth Voyager with a 2.5 l in it The spark plugs got stuck in the head It was $1,200 to put a new head on it It was worth it It drove for another 5 years after that try that with a newer car these days 10 plus thousand dollars for a new engine cuz they're disposable! No more CAST IRON BLOCKS! So think about it I had gasket isn't all that bad compared to the junk that they're making nowadays really I've known so many people with kias Toyota's Honda's Chevys Fords newer Chrysler vehicles all having major engine issues never remember hearing that in the '90s or the 2000s except for the 2.7 l
I’m having the same issue on my 2015. The mechanic just told me to traded in. I was wondering how much would it cost to fix? I’m working on finding someone here in Florida to fix my car. I did t like the idea of trading my car in.
You're very fortunate I am a Chrysler longtime owner and could not find a beater couple years ago and purchased a Toyota It will be my first and last Toyota I will never ever ever purchase one ever again It has been nothing but a mechanical nightmare! I repeat I will never buy another one ever again! My grandfather tried to warn me he had two Camrys and they were 🗑️
@@peachyclean93 you bought the Toyotas used? It all depends on the maintenance history and research for the weaknesses of each vehicle as well.. Car care nut on RUclips is a Toyota specialist and there's plenty of car owner forums to look at before diving in a purchase
@@ricebike Yes I did and it's a piece of shit and I'll never buy another one ever again nope many defects from the factory in them I have noticed I've had a lot of trouble with the engine and the transmission the electronics my radio don't work Windows are acted up funny and no it was not in a flood and it was taken care of. My family does not have good luck with foreign cars I did it because my neon was rotted out from salt that they put on the roads and I couldn't find a Dodge avenger anywhere every time I found one they have sold them. I don't like Asian or Japanese vehicles anyways.

Gots to laugh man. We crack jokes in the shop all day long 😂
We need a video on how to install a radio like that one! Lol

There is no engine cover at the beginning of the video, so you're good on that
Self closing hood 😂😂
Broo !!! I have the light p0420 and 30. I have change the catalytic converter and the 4 sensors. And the light come back😢😢 what can I do ? help
I have the 3.6 l Durango 2013 crew
Awesome content.
Appreciate it!
When I bought my 2012 Chrysler 300 v6 I had changed the oil and the mechanic said it had 8 quarts of oil on it
If it's a Dodge more than likely lifters and cams...😂😂😂
How much was this service
I would like to bring my Dodge Durango 2018 v6 3.6l to you for repair? Please
Nice work…👍👍
it only happens with the V6? what about the Hemi V8?

If you still have your broken Autel mk808bt I WOULD be interested in it for parts for mine just let me know thanks
Hello... I would like to know your opinion about the viscosity of 5w20 and 5w30 oil for Dodge Durango 3.6 v6 2013. Which works best for this engine?
5w 30 Pennzoil platnium is the only oil that should be in this 3.6. I don't care what the oil fill cap says
I bet you can get a new digitizer for that scanner
Ima look into to it to see if I can save money.
@@AlexTheCarDoctor they probably don't spend a whole lot of money on the screen. Does that unit have an external display port? Possibly a mouse?
Alex can you tell me what c0700p means for a 2012 dodge challenger rt please . I cannot find anything dodge related
Ayo Ill take your scanner if you still got it! It looks like the scanner has an hdmi out for a monitor and usb ports for maybe a mouse. I have a portable monitor that would be perfect for that scanner, and I need a decent scanner.
What does a job like this typically cost?
Just would like to know I am looking at a Ram 1500 with the V6 will it have the issue ? It has about 60k on it. I only ask because I don't know of the engine has been updated as its a 2019.
my car had developed a ticking noise again for the third time. I dread on how much it going to cost.
Do not run 5w 20 in that 3.6. That's what does it and combined with excessive idling. 5w 30 Pennzoil platnium only
5w 20 is kryptonite in these engines. Absolutely only run 5w 30w Pennzoil in these engines
Evap purge valve’s are notorious for making a clicking ticking sound that could be easily misdiagnosed for bad lifters and cams.
This is true. 💯 I normally do these three things: touch the purge valve to feel if it’s activating, I sometimes unplug it to deactivate completely so I can listen to the vehicle, or use my scanner to see if it’s on, if it’s on I turn it off with the scanner to listen to the engine.

Sounds better than my 2012 Grand Caravan with 160k. Never owned such junky engines before. Have had multiple toyota with 300k that run better

Throw a can of slick fifty in it and go trade it in. Just kidding Nice job!
