Nice one 👍

[@robevans8625]

What about map sensor or n75 valve?

[@the_retired_mechanic]

Would it let you bi direction control the solenoid while car running to check full movement of arm. 3.5v ? Assume its pulse width modulated as well?

infatti hai ragione.. non so come mai delle capre facciano i video

[@Goku1g]

O'Riley! do you guys have a video where you solve a turbo squealing/humming on an insignia? if so would you mind linking it please

[@stephenrodrigues8072]

What about running a dose of Revive cleaner through it, isn’t that supposed to be good for sticking turbo vanes?

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes but it's not guaranteed to work so I've given the option to the customer if he wants to try it

[@stephenrodrigues8072]

@@ORileysAutos would be great to see a follow up video if the customer gives you the go ahead.

[@KC08RAS]

Why not use the turbo cleaner on this?

[@ORileysAutos]

Yes we have given that option just waiting on a decision from the customer

Orite thanks for reply, I'd thought you'd just do the job then charge him.

[@ORileysAutos]

@@KC08RAS I don't do any work without the go ahead from the customer. I was just called for a diagnostic inspection so any further work needs authorisation 👍🏻

My insignia has lost 50% power and no one knows why so frustrating I think all mechanics are arse now a days.

[@kylebeardmore8954]

Was there ever a follow up? Having a similar issue with my car all the checks you did have already been done

[@Spunksock]

@@kylebeardmore8954 yeah they are rubbish cars mate I sold it and got a mk5 Mondeo, nobody knew what was wrong with it, most mechanics couldn't be arsed with it as it's too much hassle for them. If you can find a real mechanic in this day and age and not just a level 2 fitter then give it ago other than that just swap it for a Mondeo mate. Once you start getting issues with it, it will just become money pit.

[@iamballbag]

You say insignia’s are money pits, but you went and bought a mondeo.. 😜

@@Spunksock nowt wrong with them. Best cars I've had.
