@@chente8318 hey make sure you pass that knowledge to them too. Force them because it’ll pay off the rest of their lives. Good one on ya!🤙🏾

@@ladybugwest909 That is correct, and I would do an oil change every 6 months if so. I would also make sure to keep tires inflated, and move the car atleast a couple times a month to keep it all functioning properly.

@@europana7 🤣🤣

Even an engine not widely recognized as simple and reliable can still have a very long service life as long as the oil is changed at a reasonable interval (5k +/- 2k for mostly highway or mostly city) and only full synthetic is used (preferably of the highest recommended hot viscosity for the engine). Oil level shouldn't be a problem with reasonable change intervals as if the engine does consume such a significant amount of oil to consider topping it off in just 5000 miles, you have bigger problems. You should still check the oil often though to catch any severe problems early (fuel, water, metal/bearing material, etc.). Oil life as determined by the car's computer is just a way for dealerships to get away with changing oil less often while still under warranty.

100 % 👍🏻

It doesn't seem like you understand why we need to change the oil in the first place. In most cases, the oil needs to be changed because it becomes contaminated with carbon, soot, fuel, moisture, dust, etc before the oil itself breaks down. The best oil in the world doesn't do you much good if it's contaminated. While in many ways modern engines are easier on their oil than old engines, they are also harder on oil in other ways. Direct injection contributes to fuel dilution and soot formation, higher cylinder pressures create more blow by into the oil, low tension piston rings are more susceptible to sticking, thinner oils and more heavily loaded parts leave less of a safety margin for subpar or contaminated oil, today's traffic is harder on engines and oils than yesteryear, etc.

Not really. I think in many ways that depends on the car you own. Modern cars are turbo charged and direct injected. Doesnt help many of them use thinner oil like 0W-20 some newer Toyota models even go for as low as 0W-08. Oil changes are cheap, engines are not. I’d rather have the peace of mind changing my oil every 3k or push it to 5k if its a top quality oil like Amsoil signature series or pennzoil ultra platinum.

Nobody mentioned that it depends quite a bit on how the vehicle is being driven. My vehicle is used for delivery, and I let the engine idle several hours per day. No mileage on the odometer for that. Beats stopping and starting the engine 200 times a day, tho. I drive 1k miles per week in stop and go city traffic; quite a bit different than highway commuting 50 miles a week. Proper maintenance has to be tied to driving pattern as well as, or more than simply an odometer reading. I change mine once a month, ever 4k or less. An oil change costs 1,000x less than a new car and 200x less than a new engine. I spend 30x as much on gasoline.

Yeah, every 3k only applies if most of your miles are in the city/short trips, or your if you spend excessive time idling. 5k is good for most people though, and if most of your miles are on the highway, then 7k is perfectly reasonable.

@@jamfoxs Just because the manufacturer "recommends" an insanely thin oil for a piston engine doesn't mean you're legally required to use it. Look at the viscosity recommendations for the same engine in non-US markets, especially somewhere with high temperatures, like Australia. The engines that 0W-8 is recommended for will be better protected with 0W-20 or 0W-30. And no, the manufacturer does not adjust the bearing clearances tighter for 0W-8, and usage of such thin oil will result in accelerated wear.

@@emmanuelquinones7435 Maybe in another video, but thats why I mention to use a synthetic engineered oil because it has additives that slow the decomposition rate of the oil. You don’t need any additives if you simply change oil and filter every 5k miles. I wouldn’t recommend additives for some motors because they do not all react the same to these things.

@@dlg5485 this is true in some cases. That’s why I make it a point to mention go every 5k miles and use a synthetic. Over 10k miles you’ll start to have sludge buildup and just eats away at the motor

Car manufacturers aren't in the business of cars, and how long they last. They're in the business of making money😠

Any modern car, unless you're taking it to a track every day, is fine with 5k oil changes. The trouble is, whenever you tell someone that, they actually change it every 10-15-20k and claim that they do it every 5k. 2500 miles is ridiculous, 5k is generally fine, but it's important to REALLY do that.

Only buy fuel at top tier gas stations, which should be stated on the pump or you can research online. Top tier fuel is required to have a certain amount of detergent additives.

@@byronmcgee4118 YES that is important. Drive it like a normal car

@@pauldamore92 I’m a Mechanical engineer 😆

Not everyone drives an "average" amount. People who live in rural areas, drive a lot for work, travel frequently, etc can easily put way more than average mileage on their vehicle. Also, it's not uncommon for old vehicles to have high mileage. I have a 1997 Civic with over 357K miles and a 1990 Legend from rural Mississippi with well over 400K (TMU, odometer tampered with). I also know a general contractor who put over 500K miles on his Chevy van in ~15 years, I think he's over 600K now. Not everyone lives in a big city where everything and everyone is within walking distance.

@@averyalexander2303 Obviously! not Everyone is average! LoL

The 12k per year standard was assumed DECADES ago and is no longer relevant. As the job market has changed over time with manufacturing jobs vanishing, many people have to drive much further to find decent employment. My work commute is 25k per year and I do a lot of non-work related driving on top of that, so I'm past 300k in 10 years. Don't assume 'conventional wisdom' is always correct, things change.

@@dlg5485 why do these warranties at the shops still have 12k or 12 months whichever comes first? those have Not changed AFAIK

@@dlg5485 Do you have any data to support that theory? While it sounds logical, all the data I have been able to find for the last several decades shows a pretty consistent 12-15K miles per year. Perhaps the increase in remote work and online shopping offset possibly offset having to drive longer distances to work? I have seen on several reports that an average of around 30% of total miles are from commuting to and from work. At 14K miles per year and 260 work days in a year, that would mean an average of just under 9 miles each way. For what it's worth, most of the people I know live within a few miles from their job regardless of whether they live in the city, a nearby suburb, or a small semi rural town.

NO. lol It’s same length I combed half of it and didn’t realize till the video was made

@@AmpdEngineering it looks fine, do not worry about it LOL

@@AmpdEngineering subscribed, but yeah that beard tho... 😀

shut up

Yes it is fine to be doing that if the car sees proper service normally. I’m mainly focusing on the older used cars that people buy above 120-130k miles where they aren’t sure if the trans had ever been serviced. That’s a good thing and prob means you upkeep with your Toyota often👍🏾

LOL i wouldn’t bet against it very often

@0159ralph 0 seconds ago Yeah get an older one with the 4.0 V6. Not the new ones with that crappy 4 cylinder Turbo.

According to Scotty Kilmer, "buy a 94 Celica" 😂

I’m original owner of 2015 Dodge Dart SXT 2.4 liter and 6 speed automatic OD has 387,000 miles on 2nd transmission the original transmission went out on 342,700 miles of course well maintained been replaced with OEM

👍🏾👍🏽👍🏼👍

@@reese3312 Hey. You have to release those torx bolts all around the bracket for it to come off.

@@lou8877 I have not, but I plan to soon now. Thanks!

@@Tshirtguy2020 yep I realized it afterwards. It’s as simple as filling the reservoir w/ fluid and turning the steering wheel from full left lock, and refilling and turning full right lock. Start the car and turn the wheel, shut off and top us as needed. Good to go

Good sir, it is a 2007🤙🏾

@@AmpdEngineering that’s dope man. You know I’m not into the cars on your level. That’s my first time ever seeing an Aston Martin.

@@bluesilver949 man that’s a valid question, no worries bro! Thanks for chiming into the comments too🙏🏾

The part has to come from Toyota, but it is not included in their parts diagram. Luckily I was able to use the clips still so I didn’t have to replace the mount for the tailgate switch

Yes I think so too🙂‍↔️! Thank you!

Denso 2349021

Sweet Much thanks !!

Standing in front of the car, from left to right, on the firewall side you have 1-3-5 On the radiator side you have 2-4-6

You mostly want to use a wrench for these. The size I believe is 7/8 but I found it easier to use an adjustable wrench

Hey man, don’t be hatin on my customers😆

Hi Roy. The part comes with a male connector. Please send me a picture of your connector to ‘Sgamporful@gmail.com’ and I will take a look and try to help you.
