AMD, Ever since I switched to a vehicle made by Toyota, I have had nothing but good vibrations from my car. 🤩 The one exception was the noise from the cheap Goodyear tires that came
from the factory. 🤨
Goodyear from factory? I only know two Toyota's that can come with Goodyear out the factory.. which region do you live and what Toyota do you have?
@@Arman-tm1kz Goodyear RSA in 2005
My Highlander came with them. Never been a fan and continue to not be.
I love the Bridgestones that came stock on mine. Absolutely no issues. I thought I would need to replace them with my go-tos, Pirelli or Falken when I got my new car as any other car I've had, it's always the cheapest, softest tire with bo grip in the rain they put on my default. Nope. I lucked out.
I really like our hankook dynapro hp2 tires on our rav. I’ve had Kelley (cheap Goodyears here at least) as well as General Tire highway tires and a front set of some Goodyears. The hankook ones are the best followed by the GT highway tires.
My favorite videos on this channel are where you do not ever touch a car.
I get so much helpful info from just listening!
I agree
Hum. I like watching him work.
Well spoken. This gentleman is a real mechanic. Sadly the odds of anyone finding such a person or garage is near zero. Actually I believe it is below zero. What almost always happens is a total incompetent needlessly changes parts, charges an outrageous fee (usually hidden in the parts bill) and goes on to live an upper class life of luxury and the customer then returns to this jerk because the problem was never actually fixed and next he claims you have a new problem.
💯🔥
Which is why any problems visit your dealership. They won’t cheat on you cause they’re liable for any damages after their work. Plus bad PR if something isn’t fixed properly
With all due respect you are wrong. Dealers get less reimbursement from a manufacturer than on a non-warranty repair. You're only recourse is small claims court. Good luck if you go that route. Reputation? Good luck again on having a meaningful impact. They have every incentive to due nothing or pretend they did something@@javidmirza4584
Upper class life of luxury? At the peak I would say a mechanic could make 150k MAX and thats after 25+ years of experience. The reason there are no good mechanics is because they are abused, tools are the most expensive out of any trade, and people are distrustful of them (for good reason).
Odds can’t be below zero and there are people who have AMD as their mechanic. So that means the odds you have a mechanic that is a as good as amd are about 1/8,000,000
69 years old and still learning. Thanks to high end mechanics like yourself. Regards Peter
The rubber components, tires and bushings on my 2002 Tundra had dry rotted from age and a decade of exposure to extreme heat while parked on a sun drenched concrete parking pad... I didn't realize the severity of the problem until I had to make an emergency stop to avoid hitting a Prius that turned in front of at the last second. I spent a year chasing down vibrations, I replaced the tires, the shocks, the drive & carrier bearing, steering rack bushings, upper & lower control arms and ball joints. All of these changes made a huge improvement, but I still had an annoying vibration... it turns out that I had a bad set of tires. The dealer replaced my tires, and except for occasional flat spotting from sitting - the vibration is gone.
I think I’m in the same boat.
Good tires can make a hell of a difference.
@@ozzesty7314 Indeed they can... the strange thing is that the new set of Michelins I bought after the near accident were unbalanceable. It took 11 months, but I finally convinced the tire dealer to replace them with a new set of Michelin tires - all is well now.
I had a Vibration that happened around 40 miles an hour.. I went and had my tires rotated and it went away. RAM 1500. I was thrilled.
So glad you specified Harmonics, and overtightened lug nuts. Hate those mechanics being trigger-happy with impact air wrenches.
Regards from Athens Greece...take care...❤
Watching your videos gives me a great review, Iam a 15 year Toyota master tech, it is very useful when hearing different perspectives of diagnostic from different tech. Good a good day.
I had a vibration I felt in my seat in my 1988 Mustang GT after I had a dealer replace the ring and pinion. Long story short, the center post lift they had hit the driveshaft and bent it. I chased it for two years and spent $2500 trying to fix it. They hid the damage and tried to balance it out with a hose clamp and wheel weights. But can’t fix a bend. So a shop saw that and replaced the driveshaft and all the leaking seals and it was all fixed. Great video.
Former LS460 owner here. Went through parts cannon hell to fix wheel bearing shake.
It's rare to see a mechanic willing to do diagnostics nowdays
Thank you for your videos, AMD! I learned the hard way...
A lot of us have learned the hard way throwing our hard earned money at half-____ed mechanics. I finally have a good mechanic who is a an ex-Toyota tech like AMD.
Where is this mechanic (city/state)?@@rightlanehog3151
Would like to recommend having your tires roadforce balanced as well when installing new. It takes a bit longer but I’ve done many a set on vehicles that had other shops mount them for the customer. If whoever does the work knows what there doing and has a good machine it works great 👍
On some dirt roads they spray some stuff that may have cement in it to pack down the road. If you go over when this is still wet you get a build up of hardened dirt on the inside of your rim. You have to clean this stuff out. I live in Michigan.
Best car channel on UA-cam..You are the most brilliant technician ever..Keeping us informed.
If you have a bad wheel bearing, replace the bearing on the other side at the same time. Usually when a bearing starts failing, the other one is on the way out. BTW, I had a bad front wheel bearing on my MKII VW GTI that made more noise when it was unloaded. I replaced the other side, and it didn't improve. Lesson learned.
You are a hero. I have RX350 2008, vibration on acceleration, noticed the slight movement in axle bearing bracket p side, seen 5 mechanics no one related the issue to the bearing bracket and i still have the vibration till today.
Almost at 1 million subs. Hope we get a special video/party for that milestone
This is great info. I've been an audience for car videos for a decade, nothing much before has been this informative and concise. Genuinely learnt some new stuff here.
You’re the doctors for cars!
20yrs+ isn't a joke from a Master technician ❤❤❤❤ Great work man
Another great video from the Master! Nobody does it like Amd!! I had a vibration from my sieze..brake caliper where my is300 was making vibration and would travel to the wheel, but not only that it would move the car on its own! This vibration took me a while to figure out and at high speeds up to 60 miles an hr it would start! But what really led to it in my believe is that I forgot to add the shims! On a routine brake pad job on the front and eventually over time it cause my brake caliper piston to lock and! What was sad that lexus dealership when they discovered it after they did my timming belt they gave me my vehicle back knowing this and even after they figure it out and they put the new calipers on front and fixed the problems and the vibration went away and the car would go on its own but didn't bother to tell me that I didn't have shims! Really disappointing! Because I went I. For a timming belt replacement and they gave me my car back and it didn't move on its own! So I turned back around ask them y was this happening and thats when they discovered it and then I was informed and then I purchased the new calipers as I stated and they installed them but didn't again tell me that there was no shims if everyone can follow what im saying for all is300 owners beware of the toyota lexus dealerships go to amed he will not cut corners and inform you 100 percent! He deserves his own dealerships toyota lexus and scion and all techs that work for him they will know from the Best please support his channel 🙏 1 of the biggest carcarenut fans!!! May the lord keep amed and bless TCCN!
Straight to the point...no endless bla bla...highly appreciated!...Thank YOU!!
AMD, another very helpful video 🙂 Thank you
Right on time. Needed this one a few weeks back on my camry, hope it helps everyone else too.
Vibrations are scary.
This is wonderful advice. Thank you so much for all your videos!
i gotta play the lotto, this man solved an issue i was having and it's serendipitous it dropped today.
Great info AMD. I learned a lot with this one. Thank you!
Congrats for the channel. I've been watching for a long time, and the consistency and quality of your work and your team's work never disappoints. One quick question, can you recommend a rubber pad for jack stands to use in the side pinch weld lifting points? because the one that I use does not have a deep enough v to clear the pinch weld. Saludos desde España!
Your detail on vibration on acceleration is right on point. Just recently changed the passenger side cv axle on my 3rd gen Sienna because of that reason. One of the joint was loose. I didn't realized it to the point the vibration even caused two of the 12mm screws mounting the bracket on the right engine mount to become loose which worsen the vibration. It runs smooth again after tightening the screws and replaced the axle.
Thanks AMD for another awesome video
Loved this video. I listen while I drive places so the talk videos are great for this.
Very timely. thanks. I'm trying to understand a vibration right now. Have to watch again and again and think about it.
One of my favorite videos among his excellent others. Even I can DIY this enough to give accurate info to my mechanic. Thanx.
Wow!!!! What a great video on car vibrations….This should be required viewing in tech school…Saves time and money both for the tech and the customer….Thank-you!!!!
Always very informative, thanks!
Thank you AMD, very educational video. I learned a lot today. Too bad I don't live anywhere near your shop. Keep up the good work! 👍😊
Bless you for sharing your knowledge!
Props to the person behind the camera. You captured everything perfectly!
This is a great learning channel on automobiles , especially Toyota vehicles. Thank you
Another interesting and informative video. Thank you
I always learn so much from you!!!
Loving these videos!!
Such a great summary. Thank you!
thank you for posting this video
Thanks for the video. I'm experiencing vibration on the steering wheel at highway speeds, and that was very informative.
This is the best video about vibrations in your car. Saving us alot of money. Definitely my Toyota needs the rotors and wheels checked. I have the pulsating on braking and the vibrations on high speeds. Ty sir!!
Great summary of symptoms, AMD. I hope I don't need to go through this anytime soon with my 2019 Tacoma, but it is good information to know. I have dealt with some of the issues you described in other vehicles and recognized a number of the symptoms you described that were ultimately associated with the eventual repair. You are correct, diagnosing vibrations is sometimes an art form!
I like these practical videos
You are simply the best.Well articulated.Thanks
This is a great Video! So informative. Thank you! I've literally been chasing a bearing sound on my LS460. That Growling is so prominent in the quiet interior of that car. I discovered yesterday that the tires are feathered but I'll get my dealership to confirm at the next service
Thank you AMD!
Exactly the video I needed!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
This channel's right up there with SMA in my opinion. Some great information.
Eric does an excellent job. 🙌🙌It is real compliment to AMD that he has overtaken SMA's subscriber total in such a short time.
Thx much, very informative.
OK this gentleman has almost one million followers anyone think they are as knowledgeable or as good a mechanic as he is? Would love to know how many quality mechanics there are out there.
Brilliant subject to take up, Ahmed. Thank you for sharing, this is very informative. Greetings from a happy Corolla TS 2.0 Hybrid owner in Denmark, Europe, Loyal Toyota owner and driver for 20 years now
Great content as always!
Thank you. Learn something everyday.
Great timing because I have been experiencing this.
The video Ive been absolutely waiting for you to do!!! Thankyou!
My FJ has a slight rumble in the floor / if I put my hand on the passenger seat I feel the vibration. Maybe rear wheel bearing or tailshaft uni joints. !
Very good informative video AMD! Vibrations and noises can be tough to diagnose.
Another great video, Ahmad. I had a Toyota truck have a clunk with a vibration while coasting to a stop. I was a drive shaft U-joint.
I feel like this video was made for me lol I always have something going with the road conditions in my area. Drives me crazy. Thank you for the video.
Excellent video thanks
Love the channel...Your knowledge of Toyota is impressive...on CV axles.Can you rebuild the factory Toyota axle? If so,is there a kit and is it just the bearing and boot?
Thank You!
Man, I love your videos. Thank you!!! ❤
Thank you for the video, had a vibration issues with my Sienna braking at higher speeds, the whole back of the van vibrates. Have to check on all these -
- warped rotors
- Loose tie rod
- Work control arm bushing
- Bent hubs
Tires look good
Best regards from Athens Greece.
Wow, it's like you're reading my mind😂😂 Very helpful, thank you for making these videos and educating the community 🙏🙏🙏
Wow sir you are a genius... can you please make a video about diagnosing different codes when scanning
Thank you.... very accurate information ✌️
Excellent! Thanks
Another good vibration diagnosis video with GoPro video - Crazy 2014 Ford Explorer Vibration Finally Fixed!
FordTechMakuloco
Interesting thank you!
This is such a great video! You don't really see content like this often, stuff that helps you understand your car. I've just started to watch the channel and can't stop. I have a 2012 Lexus ES350 that vibrates slightly when it's idling in gear, usually when engine is colder. I can always tell when the water in my bottle slightly vibrates too. Thoughts?
Brilliant video
I love this guy Thank You for all these videos keep it coming please GOD BLESS ❤
Very informative, thankyou. Often wondered why sometimes the brake pedal will pulsate, versus the steering wheel shimmy when you have bad rotors...
I really appreciate the time and effort you put into your videos they are always so informative I wish I lived closer to shop so I could have my tundra serviced by a honest mechanic..
Good info and cute pooch...tnx
Fantastical video❤ I have a tricky vibration in my ‘59 Ford, The seat shakes from 55 mph on up. New, balanced tires. Good wheels. New driveshaft and u-joints. Seems like bearings in the rear axle! Thanks amigo 😊
Great video. 👍👍👍
Just had an inner CV go bad on my 07 ES 350 and it was exactly like you described, fluttering when accelerating, at first only around 75 mph, let off the gas and it goes away. After a little while it became fluttering while accelerating at any speed over 55. All 3 of the bearings on the spider were worn. Thanks for these videos!
Thank you so much for explaining all that god bless
i think you just solved the problem i had since two weeks , likely a wheel bearing
very informative
Fj cruiser owner. I installed mud tires and a 3 inch lift. I had horrible vibrations, far beyond what could be expected from that combo. Yea, I know. I paid extra for all those symptoms, which made diagnosis of the problem near impossible (mud tires make noise, E rated tires are hard, they don't balance, etc). Finally, I was unhappy with the lift for other reasons. Mostly terrible handling on washboard dirt roads. Replaced all the shocks and front springs with a better lift kit, and all the problems went away. It simply did not like the entry level bilstean shocks. Went to iron man foam cell pros all around, and it is awsome, and kept the same icon progressive springs in back. However, I sure got a crash course in all the those noises / vibrations and what they mean. Unfortunately, each one was checked by my mechanic in the process of elimination, and we never suspected the shocks as the source. Especially considering how many people use them on FJs. On the bright side, that cheap lift kit helped me work out what I really wanted from a suspension system, and what I wanted to do with my FJ. Mostly overland, driving hours of dirt roads.
Very good explanation.
Another is the "washboard road".
It seems we have many. Car will vibrate on one stretch and not another.
Spot on!
I really enjoy your videos. I'm driving a 91 land cruiser with 219,000miles on it. These videos help me.
This is another great video. I first learned about what AMD is talking about when I worked at a Ford dealer in the late 70’s as a front end and power steering mechanic. We had our own description of the belts coming apart on radial tires, wether they were newer tires or some with a few miles on them, “ radial walk.” I had to laugh a bit because it brought back memories of working in that department.
6:32 this is such a valuable video and better than many other separate videos just about a single topic combined that I've seen, especially about differentiating between one problem and another. I have been dealing with a puzzling issue for a long time in my 2004 Toyota Camry with about 150k miles. At low speeds and more noticeable with light breaking compared to heavy braking, there is an on and off (based on rotation) grinding sound from the front brakes. My mechanic, who I overall trust, previously said that it was because of "rust" but the car is driven multiple times per week, and previously after having the brakes and rotors replaced, the sound came back within a few months. One time when I brought it to the mechanic, he inspected the tires and brakes before taking it on a road test, and the sound temporarily resolved before coming back within a few days. He's not a "share your guess with him" kind of guy, and I'm wondering if bent hubs are possibility or something else.
Thank you for the video. How about vibration at idle? Is that from engine mounts?
Good morning sir 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻from Yorktown Texas 🇨🇱🇨🇱🇨🇱🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for the tips sir
AMD, thank you for sharing this information. 10 years ago my 2006 Highlander was making horrible grinding noises at low speeds. All 4 tires were badly cupped. I went to the tire store to replace them and they tried telling me they were chopped from bad wheel bearings. As a lifelong DIY I called BS. They then told me I needed new struts. I checked and none were loose or leaking. BS again! I replaced the tires with Bridgestones. They were out of round and I used the replacement policy. The new tires wore and rode poorly and by the time I had 90K, I replaced them with Michelins. No more problems, and they went 70k miles with no issues, no chopping, no cupping. It was the crappy tires all along. The car now has 198,000 miles and I'm looking to replace the lower control arms for the bushings. I will check my alignment DIY and will continue driving this great car for the forseeable future. Thanks for all you do to keep up DIY'ers sharp.
Michelin is the king of tires the way Toyota is the king of cars.🏅🏅🏅🏅
Another vibration to mention is vibration at idle or while accelerating that could be attributed to bad motor mounts. I've seen a couple newer Corollas with complaints of excessive vibration due to a bad transmission mount.
Great info!!! Please do SOUNDS next time!!!
2022 4runner vibrating between 60-75. Toyota Road forced balance the tires more than 3x and ended up changing the tires from Dunlop to Michelin under warranty. Still vibrating….
After watching Eric the car guy for years, I had come to think that he's the best at what he does, but this guy takes it a step further, much impressed sir.
