Omg your channel is a godsend. My father passed away a couple of years ago and I’ve been HOPELESS without him when it comes to fixing my car. Thank you!!! ❤ Also, I’ve definitely realized how scammy car places are since I’ve been learning more about my Fiat!
I am very sorry for the loss of your father. I also lost my father last year and it is hard. I am glad that you are able to learn how to fix your car now.
A lot of people don't realize this will make your AC work so much better and longer! Thanks for all the videos I've watched almost all of them, starting to work on my mom's car this weekend. Also in Northern VA! All the dealers here are scammers haha, thats why I'm doing a full tune up and fluids on this car
Thank you for all your fiat 500 videos! Please continue to make more if possible, I’m doing a lot of DIY maintenance on my own Fiat following your instructions 😁 Also, thank you for your service 🇺🇸
I live in Virginia! You can really hear the cicadas this year. I appreciate your honesty. I will be replacing my air filters when they come in. 2012 Abarth.
You are wonderful! And your Daughter as well Thank you bottom Of my heart for this video I enjoy you and your truth Fiat 500 Abarth 2017🇮🇸👍🏻 now I can Do This !
EJ, this is an important video. Most people don’t know or believe they are being ripped off at dealerships and shops. It’s good you are teaching basic maintenance to those watching. I was fortunate to find an honest shop that only does German cars to take my Tiguan to when it’s a big repair. So far they've done transmission fluid change, Haldex fluid and filter change, rear differential fluid change, along with a rear main engine seal, a brake booster vacuum line and a new turbo. Every time it was cheaper than the dealer and it was done right the first time. The only thing I do now is oil change and filter, engine air and cabin air filter and spark plugs. I’m getting too old to crawl underneath the cars. If a person can find a good shop they can get difficult work done there and do whatever they can as DIY. Thanks again for another video to help car owners.
That is good that you have an honest independent shop. Fnding an honest and good indepedent shop is hard but once you find it, it is a blessings. I am getting worried abour Jose, my honest Porsche mechanic. He is getting very old. I pray that he has a long and healthy life. About getting old, I am starting to feel it now in my mid 40s. It is getting tougher to do DIY videos. 😀
Loved the truth about some of these stealerships in this video. I already knew how to do this but I'm watching all your fiat videos. Gotta go check out the brakes and rotor replacement now.
LMFAO! You got great camera energy. I realize I am 2yrs late looking at this video. Just want to say. Liked your easy to do DYI R/R of filters. I am going to follow ya and check out other vids. Have a great Navy Day!

Dear Sir, Inspection by dealer means that they only look for physical inspection such as Tyres, Brake Pads, Engine oil etc. They never do a full service for you, for that they will supply you with service history. I hope it helps.
What do you mean Jiffy Lube didn’t even do your oil change?? Thats fraud!! Great video!!You’re my favorite RUclips mechanic!! we bought a used Fiat from a BMW dealership they said they serviced it they didn’t even do the oil change you’re right they bullshit you
@@ejsgarage yeah agree bro. If you had put dream car or generic air filter replacement in the description the content search engine would have pick this up as a air filter replacement not a small car air filter replacement.. that how the marketing works on utube and searching fields .. eg remove Fiat .. it will limit the condition
First off, that filter is black because it's charcoal infused. BOTH are totally OK. Second, a cabin filter issue for a Fiat owner doesn't even make the list of multiple coming attractions of problems. The dictionary definition of 'Fiat': "an arbitrary decree or pronouncement, especially by a person or group of persons having absolute authority to enforce it". Real world: "A very small, overpriced, poorly engineered vehicle suffering catastrophic depreciation".

I agree! 🎉 And so much is not available for learning! I'm so glad to find you EJ!
I live in Virginia! You can really hear the cicadas this year. I appreciate your honesty. I will be replacing my air filters when they come in. 2012 Abarth.
We hae a lot of cicadas but they disappeared now. The Arbath is a great and fun little car.
Thank you. I didn't know this was even there. Ive had my car for over 5 years!
My pleasure Tracy 😊
That’s great! Make sure you see the air flow is correct as you can place it in the wrong direction.
I bought a 2015 500 Sport last June. I've watched a few of your videos to learn how to do some things . Thank you for all your help!!!
Congratulations on buying the 2015 Fiat Sport and my pleasure. 😀
THANK YOU SO MUCH! It helps me a lot! Everything you said about Jiffy lube and dealership was so true! 🙏
My pleasure 😊
You are wonderful! And your Daughter as well Thank you bottom

EJ'S GARAGE I’m in my mid 60s and it is really hard to do any DIY, even around the house. Haha. Stay healthy and safe, my friend.
60! You still have your life ahead of you 😀 More adventure to come. I find it very painful to mow the lawn 😂🤣
ABSOLUTELY!!! Thank you for your channel, your expertise and your time
My pleasure Carmen. 😊 Thank you 😊
Loved the truth about some of these stealerships in this video. I already knew how to do this but I'm watching all your fiat videos. Gotta go check out the brakes and rotor replacement now.
Thank you very much. It is sad that some strealerships don’t do what they are paid to do.
Love your HONESTY AND INTEGRITY!
Thank you very much Carmen. I really appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you very much Sir🙏
EJ is the best! And his camera person too!! :D
Thank you very much, we really appreciate it 😊
Thank you for this video!
Got the same problem with overpriced filters and service on garages, it is annoying indeed! 😅
My pleasure. It is always overpriced at a garage and sometimes they didn’t do anything l.
If this is a typical Fiat, it should give you plenty of content for your channel! Good luck with it!
Thank you very much Mike, I really appreciate the feedback.
thanks! gonna replace my next! I have a 2012 Abarth - I like the camera work very helpful.
My pleasure Christo. Thank you very much for your leaving me a kind comment, I really appreciate it.
I have a 2012 Abarth as well!

Thank you very much 🙏😊
not an easy service procedure, believe me thats easy compared with a RHD, the column 2’’ from the cover and the pedals interfering with access too!
Dude. You are the best!
You are amazing! Thank you very much David 😀👍
You are great and funny at the same time. Keep up the good work👍
Thank you very much Cosmo 🙏😃

Is it safe to power wash or foam clean the engine bay on this car 💭
I will use the low pressure white tip for the engine bay. Cover the electrical connections.
Thank you
My pleasure
bang,
how much is the market price for used electric cars there?
Murah di sini karena nga laku.
fiat Good car
Teima kasih ya 😀🤗
Fiats are cool cars
Thank you
👍👍
Thank you
Dont own a fiat but keep posting video .. you will limit yourself to a smaller market doing less mainstream or dream cars.
Thank you very much for the tip. It is harder to find videos maintenance of smaller market cars.
@@ejsgarage yeah agree bro. If you had put dream car or generic air filter replacement in the description the content search engine would have pick this up as a air filter replacement not a small car air filter replacement.. that how the marketing works on utube and searching fields .. eg remove Fiat .. it will limit the condition
In my father's Kia Soul... pull out the glovebox all the way and undo one simple screw 😂
That is awesome 👍👍👍
My last oil change, they couldn't have changed it! It was like melted peanut butter trying to change my oil.
Oh no! Was it an instant oil change shop like the Jiffy Lube?
@@ejsgarage yes!
Those places like to scam people
@@ejsgarage 🤐😬🥵🤯😵💫😵 I'm so glad I found your spark plug RUclips!
Do a right hand drive one. Not so easy - at all!
