I love DIY. It's fun and you know for sure the jobs are done right. It of course saves you money. Don't believe you can do it? Wrong. Even I can do it. Just a hint. Twenty years ago when I got my first car, I didn't know cars need oil changes. Think about that! I haven't paid any labor on cars for more than 15 years.
How to Test Brake Fluid? How often should you replace brake fluid?
Quite some manufacturers ask you to change brake fluid every 2 years while some ask for 10 years replacement. Not too long ago, some manufacturers didn't even mention replacement of brake fluid. So how often should you do? Can you even test it? Yes and it's way easier than you think. Just follow this video. You do need a tester that costs a few dollars (link to Amazon below).
Of course, the test is reliable only if the tester itself is reliable. I did have a video for testing the tester: ua-cam.com/video/3my-3TEjFIg/v-deo.html
To buy the tester from Amazon: amzn.to/3SSsbSK ($6 as of 08/18/2024)

Thanks! This happened while staying at a rental property. Your video may have helped, certainly helped think it through, but lights stayed on after probing the outlet hose (seemed to be 3 openings in the spike outlet). It seemed to be making noises when I pressed the power button, so I took out the pod, put a mug under and pressed the power button. It filled the cup half full, then the lights went out and the machine started working normally again. I also appreciated the enthusiasm at the end of your video when your machine started brewing again! Thanks again!
@@ekconley6429 Thank you
Don’t buy these Keurig machines they only work when they want to.
I have one literally straight from the box, never brewed a cup that I tried this on and it STILL won't work. Any advice is appreciated.
@@stefanjentoft8107 can you return it?
Hi i have park Assistant which is not working after the installation i am waiting for your video
@@masaduk Sure. I will put it up this week. Happy it works for you for everything else.
Why does the service manual have you using a flush tool and unplugging the return line on the transmission and on the transmission oil cooler? It’s very confusing.
I had serious oil consumption, after putting on a pcv valve in the cap, it stopped every oil change I do sea foam treatment direct to cylinders and in oil. Much better performance no fear of losing the main seal.
@@robertvanderbaan3722 putting pcv on the cap was what I was thinking if I had pcv issue after this...then I got bored with this car and sold it. Now I'm driving a Volvo XC90, 😂.
will the sensor work for 2017 Q7?
Yes. But you sure it broke though?
hey that worked! I didn't feel any clog or see anything come out when I pushed it in so I was thinking it wasnt working. But I closed the lid and then pushed the power button while it was still on and then it made a motor kind of noise and then the lights went off except for power button, and then I heard it heating the water again! I used a lock pick btw, didnt have any paper clips handy
Thank you I appreciate your video

I bought my Honda Element which was new in 2004. Over 20 years of ownership I have had the catalytic converter stolen twice! The first time was in Atlanta while it was at the shop getting new brakes. That was not so bad as the shop's insurance covered the repair. The second time was in Philadelphia is 2022 at the ASMBMB meeting. That was much worse because the repair cost ~4500 and I had to drive it back to VA without the cat and it was so LOUD for 7 hours! My insurance covered most of it but I had a $500 deductible so I had to pay that out of pocket. Just this year we bought a 2024 Honda CR-V and absolutely love it. We also have a 2018 Crysler Pacifica and love that vehicle so much. Such a great family vehicle.
This helped thank you!
Oh WOW! Thank you! That was worse than the one I used when I was 10, 40 years ago. Now it's great, Thank you!

What dash kit did you use to mount the headunit?
None available. I cut and drilled myself and thus kind of ugly.

Can i do that on my HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 1515 printer? 🙄
It doesn't look like it.
@@HandyDoctor89 😏
tried it....engine still blew up. These engines are POS
Unfortunately they are pretty bad...
Simple answer: Electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. You'd remove the negative first to cut off the flow of power.
Good tips. Another tip, go watch the video on drilling out a hole to access the PCV port, so you can flush it with carb cleaner every 15k. Also, add a oil catch can. Other than that the car drivers pretty good.
So I found how to do this, it’s okay if I spray the carb cleaner in the hole? That won’t mess anything up?
thank you so much, i watched so many videos on this and none of them was pouring the oil like yours, finally got a jack to work after like 5 years of not working.
Thsnk you! You are only person I found who helped me.
Very helpful! Thank you so much for this video! I couldnt find any other one that helped!
Thank you Handy Doctor! I fixed my HP Officejet Pro 6968 printer too. I asked my toner supplier and he said he can fix for me for $30 and I need to bring the printer to him. Your video is awesome and helped me save $30.
Happy to help. Please let others know by sharing for example.
thank you
This fix worked for me, thank goodness!!!!
Thank you for the quick reply. I'll consider trying a control board and hopefully it fixes the problem, if not , off to the store we go. Thanks again. Video was helpful.
