    He has a real sense of authority. So much so that I strongly suspect he's wearing silk ladies panties and fishnet stockings under his 'regulation' pants. Whatever the case, his check engine advice delivered in a manly, very self assured voice, will send many motorists straight to AutoZone. So well done!

    In other words, cars are designed to get us back to the dealer with a certain frequency, so that they can make money on the fixes. My best advise: go to your trusted mechanic to have it checked.

    Can AutoZone do a ODBC II scan on a 2003 Mercedes SLK 320 or will only a Star Scan hook up to this vehicle? The dealer can do a Star scan but is very proud of the process cost-wise.

    • @milesslocombe1121
      @milesslocombe1121 7 років тому

      Chuck Stogner: If it's a Merc get it on Star at a dealers. I've had a couple of them now and an off the shelf scanner won't get the codes right. OBD is a standard that car manufacturers have to conform to, however, this doesn't mean it has to divulge all the info required.

    Mass airflow sensor and some of these other sensor can be cleaned or repaired. They don’t always need to be replaced. Other than the fact that this guy sounds like an authority probably proves he is just an actor.

  • @kevinmorton4439
    @kevinmorton4439 4 роки тому

    2014 ford Ranger 2.2ltr. 127000Ks on the clock. My diagnostic tool recognised a Mass airflow fault. That was close enough. Actually on the inter cooler side. Cleaned the manifold pressure sensor. Found a split in the inter cooler pipe.
    This creates a misfire in the motor.
    Replaced the pipe with a silicone unit. Not another rubber one. Should last longer. Engine light now off.
    Serviced the auto trans. She’s like brand new.

    hi there, can you please shed some light on my situation: i have a 2006 corolla 1.6 4 gear automatic (not sequential) and my engine light has come on. My mechanic scanned it and it displays the following: code P0741 $10, torque converter, clutch circuit performance /stuck off. The thing is that here in Crete (island in Greece) nobody knows how to fix an automatic car and I really dont want to take it to the dealership, can you please tell me what to do? can i keep driving it with the warning light on? practically there doesnt seem to be anything wrong, it drives the same, thanks!!!!

Is it Ecu? Or just wiring needs to be re done properly? Or something else?

But I hear a sound when turning the steering wheel and hitting break, but checked breaks and they are ok. Not sure what's the problem. Time to take it back. The noise sounds like something is about to break or needs oil lubrication on a cracking noise?

    After unlocking engine temp sensor from coolant tank sensor the coolant light went off. This tells me tank sensor NFG. But, engine light on constantly.
    I talked to mechanic and he said f*** it. It runs like a mother f****** top. I'll not do anything until problem, any sensor problem happens. 2003 Saturn ion, 162,000 miles (270,000 klms).
    Change oil no later than 3000 Mike's (Pennzoil Plus). Just changed coolant again to -40°F.

      Ayham Tanbari no man. That’s what every car does that has an ECU. Every warning light turns on when you start your car because the ECU is checking if every sensor is okay. And if something is not okay, a warning light will turn on. If everything is okay, all lights should turn off after the vehicle starts.
