Thank you for sharing your video, Amber. A big thank you to your brother for his prompt assistance. I am pleased to hear that you are now able to enjoy your vehicle. 🚗💨
Had to subscribe, had a family friend that would visit my mum quite often that went through a few protons. Honestly absolutely lovely car and she loved every one of them, I remember asking what the blue tac was about in between the light on the roof and the shroud and she said "oh it leaks" bless her!
You did the right thing to not drive the car until the cambelt was replaced. That coolant was way overdue for replacement. Don't forget to bed those pads in properly.
@@Parknest trying to go careful on the brakes although I tend to be a later braker kind of girl lol! Thanks for watching. Now I can drive the car with peace of mind.
Excellent really good video im an ex mechanic i miss it so much man had to give it up due to health unfortunately but i so miss it 😢. Brilliant how you crossed referenced all the manufacturers to find tje parts you motor factor girls are brilliant 😊
@@co2addicted788 thanks for the nice comment. I am no mechanic personally and sometimes I do like to give things ago, but I am suffering from a long term injury so rather pay someone to fix car for me currently! However would never have given this job a go myself, cambelt lol! I found it interesting to watch my bro do the work, glad you did too. Yeah where I work, they are good at sourcing the correct parts! Thanks for watching.
@@Driven247 anytime and thank you been watching since you drove the silver (I think) fiesta st on the bypass think it had just had a new exhaust was a while lol 😆 🙏❤
I totally understand why you dont want to risk the belt going by driving it. Please please please please do more video's 🙂 Does the proton have a name ? I'm lovin it !!!!!! 🙂
@4.39, don't think it'd be limescale it's more likely crystalised Ethylene Glycol anti freeze, you sometimes see it around water hoses on older cars which have been sat
@@andywrollo2915 oh it does stop much better now thankfully and seems to be running better too since cambelt change…I think that might be the idea to be honest Andy, I’ve been offered something, but currently still have this car obviously. Thanks for watching.
Glad you got it sorted. Hopefully you'll have many happy miles in it.
@@Mike_Ockiner yes happy it’s been done, now I can enjoy and drive it around and it should all be fine! Thanks for watching.

@@Anime-Face. thanks for the kind words, nice of my brother to come over sooner than expected to get the job done for me!
I do love the Satria my cousin used to Rally one. Glad to see the Protons getting some more love.
@@elproffo thank you. Yes this is my second, first was a GTI one.

Oh thank you and nice story you have with the Proton cars yourself. More to come, thanks for watching this one!
that sounds sooooo much smoother after all the belts been done !!!!!!! 🙂
@@LawnMowersThingsThatMakeNoise your right, it really does! Maybe some of the timing was out…? Thanks for watching.
I would love to see a POV driving video with your proton :)
@@jameswarden9136 coming real soon! Thanks James.

@@Driven247 Yeah, being gentle on the brakes for the first 200 miles or so is one good way of bedding the pads in

Nice to see adam getting involved and getting his hands dirty
@@mk3escort84 ha ha, I will pass that on, remind me of your name again? I know you know him etc! Thanks for watching.
@@Driven247 my names Darren. I think if you bought and sold a few cars and filmed some repairs it would help your channel
@@mk3escort84 that’s it, couldn’t remember your name sorry!
Enjoy it, now it's done - it's lovely!
@@robertngreen6 thank you Robert!

Nice work, thank to your helpful brother. I Enjoyed very much watching, as I do works myself too on this car since years, now just enjoy driving ✌️🤗
@@isaccopofi133 thanks for the comment, I’ve been driving the car around since!

@@LawnMowersThingsThatMakeNoise no name, don’t tend to name my cars to be honest, yes few more to come!

@@nickb5391 your probably right, whatever it was, it wasn’t nice ha ha!
Jon Coupland cars may be interested in this ..
@@frankbutcher2615 yeah think he’s seen it over on Twitter, I tag him sometimes, thanks Frank.
@@Driven247 Jon was looking for the Fast Satria recently himself. Thinking of it maybe the GTI spec springs will work on yours.
@@elproffo thank you.
Great work bruv. 👍 Quick too. Bet it stops better now. Sell it an get another sh***er to fix😂. Great vid. Take care.
@@andywrollo2915 oh it does stop much better now thankfully and seems to be running better too since cambelt change…I think that might be the idea to be honest Andy, I’ve been offered something, but currently still have this car obviously.
Thanks for watching.
Gate belts & Jurid pads, only quality parts for it, in my days at motor factors it was Ferodo or Belaco belts & Ferodo pads quality parts
@@nickb5391 yeah I’ve heard of Ferodo! Thanks Nick.
@@Driven247 I've still got loads of catalouges from my days working at motor factors, they were only going to be binned
Have you tried unplugging it then plugging it back in?
@@ericpohlman5131eh?

@@AndyPipkin-dj8sy I’m too confused now so thanks 🤣
@@Driven247 Or use the esc button?
