    I'm so grateful to now know that my "woo-woo" sound on deceleration (only on certain roads!) is no doubt due to a bad tire. What exactly is wrong with the tire? If I drive on the Interstate before I can replace my tires, am I risking a serious accident due to blowout or tire coming apart? I don't drive the car that much. Could this be due to dry rot of the rubber sitting for periods on concrete?

    • @EuropeanAutoRepair
      @EuropeanAutoRepair День тому

      It’s possible that being old and the rubber getting harder over time can cause the tire noise or alignment issues can cause it sometimes as well, either way assuming you have good tread and the rubber isn’t too old it’s usually not a dangerous thing more of a annoyance

    Having the hood latch linked to the oil level in the sump is a totally ridiculous set up. There is no reference to it in the Audi manual. If the oil level is low and the car detects you haven't opened the hood to put in oil ,then it continues to show a low oil level. Maybe the dealers are aware of it.

    Very intresting video. I have a whine noise thats only based on speed (comes around 20km/h until 80km/h and drownes out after). Its more subtle at most speeds and way louder at like 50km/h. When I am off throttle its completely gone. Doesnt matter which rpm or which gear its is. Car is a 2007 Toyoyta Avensis with the 2AZ FSE engine (very smiliar to the US camry with the 2AZ FE).

    • @EuropeanAutoRepair
      @EuropeanAutoRepair 3 дні тому

      What I typically do is when the timing chain service is being performed just remove the screen completely, sometimes they will already be loose and sitting in front of the oil feed and you can just pick them right out of there, leaving them out is from what I understand and what I’ve seen the way to go about it right now, this particular one never even made it to timing chain replacement before the failure which is not too common, thanks for watching man I really appreciate it!
