@@fozzir Thank you for watching

All my cars I do 5,000 miles or twice a year, whichever comes first. This was my first time doing annual out of curiosity because I felt I was doing the oil changes way before it was even due and seemed wasteful. What do you think?

How are you smelling the oil before hand or do you mean when you’re doing the change for next time? I normally do 2 a year or every 5,000 miles. This was my first time doing 1 year service out of curiosity and it looked great. I drive it maybe 4,000 miles a year though so I’m sure that is a consideration as well.

Smell the drained oil for gas and can definitely tell which car has been contaminated (hybrids get it quickly). Yes for next time. I'm generally really good about not doing short trips and fast warm up. I have a vortex drain valve so I could drain an analysis sample easily. I use amsoil signature 0-40w in moderate/hot climate since I have enough cars I can group buy for myself once a year.

Oh okay, I see what you mean!

Thx for the recommendation. Looks like we both have the Arctic silver :-).

Those are nice too! Much more fancy than mine.

@@512TXSDIYtotally but I would have preferred to save some money on this one lol. Thanks for the videos! I’ll be taking a shot at the process tomorrow 🤘🏼

Good luck and be patient. It’s not too bad of a job.

Thank you for watching! If the socket breaks, Harbor Freight has lifetime warranties :-).

I found it on eBay

Did you end up selling instead then?

Thank you so much for watching! I’m happy with it too and still enjoying it in my Tacoma as well.

Happy with it but I just sold it a few weeks ago. Don’t use it enough. If you’re storing a car, get a 4 post. If you work on cars like I do, get a 2 post. It’s more functional.

Did you ever have a problem with the lift not being mounted to the floor? Thanks for answering our questions .

Never. It’s so heavy and doesn’t move. It also has wheel castors so I personally wouldn’t bolt it to the ground either.

@@SchmittycocoPop Nicely done!!!

Crush washer for sure. Did you get yours in a kit?

@@512TXSDIY havent purchased anything yet. Im about 3k miles from doing it. I want to get the crush washer. I need to buy the 38mm socket. Filter wise, I've found several cheap premium options eg mobil 1, k&n, purolator, wix(currently running) +more etc. All under $20(several under $15) as for oil im debating between castrol edge European car a3/b4, mobil 1 European formula (currently running) , mobil 1 esp, castrol edge high mileage & mobil 1 high mileage . Lol

Nice. Walmart has Mobil 1 and the C3 Oil too if that is what you wanted to get.

@@512TXSDIY im debating between several brands/varieties eg: mobil 1 European car formula (what im currently running) or Castrol Edge European car a3/b4, Mobil 1 ESP, Castrol Edge High mileage or Mobil 1 High mileage. Currently running an WIX oil filter also. Considering either k&n, purolator, mobil 1, ecoguard etc. Found good deals on all those filters on eBay. Wal-Mart definitely has the cheapest oils

Technically for the VR6 variant, the correct is C3 approved oil. I honestly use Mobil 1 0w40 European in all my German cars. WIX filters are awesome and Mann, Mahle. I believe Mann makes WIX but if you get the WIX brand it’s cheaper too. Don’t overthink it.

Ughh, I don’t have it. I was there mainly for the audio nodes from exhaust.

@@MelvinTraynum thx!!

@@JUNJUN-lw2vr Yes I do, everything. You’ll need a scan tool though.

Thx. Are you going to attempt this yourself?

It will be similar but different engine altogether

Sweet! Kind of a fun and rewarding DIY huh?

@512TXSDIY yes plus the dealer in california charge 125 to 150 hourly I do my own oil charge and filter, cabinet filter thanks to people like you a matter of fact I think one of those I mentioned above is also a other one of your clips thanks

@512TXSDIY my breaks and rot are from you and your clips last year thanks

You’re welcome!

Labor alone probably $350 to $500 depending on the shop and if you’re doing front and rear

​@@512TXSDIYwoah, and you made it look so easy too

Lol, thank you. It's not too bad. German cars are much harder :- )

Thanks for watching!

Cool, thanks for watching!

Glad it helped!

I don’t know. I put the GM amp the in description below to get it from Amazon.

What bearing? On the strut hat?

@@512TXSDIY under the strut mount there is small bearing.

@@JUNJUN-lw2vr Yes I did. You have to get a scan tool to do so, unfortunately. I have videos of me doing it as well if you need it.

Great idea but I don’t have the GLK right now :-/

Good idea but I do not. If you watch this video though, there should be enough information to remove the headlights.

I don’t recall 100% but you will have to drop the front bottom tray for sure. Shouldn’t have to remove rack though. Front tray and the driver side rim.

@@512TXSDIY Had a look under the tray and cannot see anywhere to access the bottom nut for the pipes which is annoying so the rack will have to be removed to swap the lines. Helpful video cheers mate.

@@Neroxme Thank you. I miss it very much.

@@512TXSDIY that I’ll understand. I bought 10 years ago, This was my childhood dream 😎 and I still have it😃 I have done some modifications over the years. I have installed hammer performance 1275 cylinders I have the full 120+ horsepower kit from hammer performance. I will sell my house, my kidney or anything else I have before I sell this bike 🤣 I just put out some videos on my UA-cam if you are interested 👍

@@Neroxme Very cool and will do!

@@512TXSDIY 😃

The cam sensor is what my issue was and it monitors the camshaft position and rotation, while the crank sensor monitors the crankshaft angle and speed of spin so they are unrelated.

My OEM ones were shot so to me, it now rides amazing! Haha.

@@512TXSDIY thanks for the details!

You're welcome!

Can someone answer this question?

Nice! How did yours turn out?

It pops right out. No screwdriver needed or anything like that.

Thank you very much.🙏 The service said it was necessary to remove the bumper, but I didn't believe it. I didn't believe it was necessary to remove the bumper for something like this.

Correct and it is not required. You can do this in your drive way in under 2 minutes with 1 tool or a flat blade screwdriver. SUPER EASY!

Austin, Texas

It’s okay. That probably needed to be drained too.

Thx! I think so too :-). More retro.

I don’t have the torque and just did it to what it felt like on my original bolts

That’s a bummer! Did you try software hosted?

@512TXSDIY I tried to reconnect all again and use the usb to make an update, but no luck, no response.

There should be a usb wire that connects to the rear. That is the port you would use for software updates.

I don’t know. Mine came gapped so l just installed it and no issues.

Hey! No, mine was plug and play and everything works as it should. Reverse camera works too.

Good question but I don’t know the answer since that isn’t the model I have. :-/. Anyone else know?

I got mine on eBay for $30 for both

I don’t know the answer to your question, sorry! Anyone else know the answer?

Use what meets specifications or your desired brands

Thank you for watching!!!

Thank you so much for watching!

I agree!!!

Thank you for watching and glad it worked out
