    My pal Crossy loves his VW Golf but when it comes to basic maintenance, he hasn't a clue. Putting air into his tyres is something that he genuinely didn't know how to do until we shot this video. If you also aren't sure how these things in your car work, check out the video!

    Oh god your mate gave me such a laugh....the sheer honesty of him and that laugh!! My Golf 2.0 is 36 PSI. My last 2 front tyres the garage had set them to 30 and I only got 15,000km out of them cuz they started wearing on the outside. Now I always check and reset them even after getting 2 new tyres. Can't trust garages or tyre places to even leave you right.
    Another tip for your mate, his coolant header tank more than likely has a pink silica bag. Get his local indie garage to order a new header tank or remove the bag. VW Ireland and globally know this is a huge huge problem. It blocks the heater matrix and needs a coolant flush, guts of €1000. Just an FYI to other golf owners.

    😂😂see now!!! That gave me confidence, I never need to and today I have to... thanks for that. *UPDATE* I got fuel and when paying asked the 4 ladies there including the one behind the counter (no men in the queue) and NONE had ever used one before and didn't know how. I went ahead and drove up to the machine and got out to read the instructions including payment..... it was a vacuum and perfume!!! So I drove to the next one and very easily put pressure in my tyres for 50p, paid with my card 😆

    I laughed my legs off at this. It reminded me of a chap who I used to work with who didn't know how to change a wheel and would happily have called his breakdown service to do so which is fair enough as that's part of what they'll do for you but my reasoning to him was " you do realise that by the time your breakdown service makes it to you you could have the wheel changed yourself and he was like "so?" I just shook my head in utter disbelief! I'm not mechanically minded at all but I can do the basics like check the oil and fluid levels in the engine, plus the air in the tyres and change a wheel.

    That gave me a laugh but it’s no harm to re-familiarise yourself with the basic of pre-check, every day is a school day. PSI inside door frame on a label.

    Very good 😂👍👍. PSI should be on the tyre wall also. Helped a friend like this a few years back. Told her 3 of her tyres were gone and 4th wheel bearings gone. She had clio. Told her car would kill her or someone else. Few weeks later she bought old golf.a few weeks after that mondeo hit her from behind on m50 at speed. her car had good tyres and nct. She walked away bruised. Help a friend if they're not sure.

    • @Mancozeb100
      @Mancozeb100 4 роки тому

      Different cars will have different tyre pressures, and any particular car will need different tyre pressures depending on how heavily loaded the car is. So, putting the psi on the tyre is not gonna work. Virtually all VW group cars (VW, Audi, Skoda, Seat, etc..) have the recommended tyre pressures label inside the fuel filler flap. Fuel is either “Petrol” or “Diesel” or “Electricity”! Have they not got basic mechanical questions in the driving test now? Not that that would help in this particular case!!! No wonder our women are pissed off with our men 😄! Jesus Harry !

    I honestly thought you were kidding at first. No offence to your mate who was a good sport, but how can anyone who drives not know how to check their tyre pressure, oil, etc?
    The correct tyre pressure is basic road safety! I was taught how to do all of this by my driving instructor.

  • @bdeithrick

    Tip for you reading this. Reverse car up to unit. Do all free stuff first. Open doors remove matts shake em out. Remove 4 dust caps off valves. Once happy set pressure to 32-36, read label on B pillar of fuel cap.
    Then drop in coin and select air pressure, level off all 4 tyres.
    Good pressure into tyre valve to seal it.
    Once its done and you have your 4 beeps. Press vacuum and do all 4 foot wells and matts outside on floor. If you’re good at it press sent, you will get smelly into car for 4 secs too.
    Do all free stuff first and don’t Fanny about.

    The tyre pressure should be on a sticker on B Pillar or fuel flap. Since when do you just guess?

      Not on the B pillar on this Golf anyway... it just said see manual.

    Finally I can feel superior to an Irishman in one way. I knew about the basic maintenance and operation of a motor vehicle before I was five. Granted motors are more complex today then the mid-sixties but this is pathetic. And good craic.
