    Happy Birthday! It never fails to amaze me how many people NEVER check their fluid levels. My cars have never used a drop of oil but I continue to check my oil, coolant, battery, brake, and transmission fluids monthly. It only takes ten minutes. I also check my tire pressures too. That's just being a responsible car owner. I noticed this guy is driving around on severely worn tires despite winter being just around the corner. Sometimes, I just want to grab people by the shoulders and shake the crap outta them!

    In places with cold winter climates its always the passenger side that needs bearings, ball joints, tie rod ends, strut...etc... Roads are crowned in the center and water runs and puddles in on the edge of the curb lane. Then it freezes and thaws breaking up the pavement causing potholes. A Monroe rep told me they sell about twice as many passenger side suspension parts than drivers side.

    Usually the EVAP leaks in these are related to the fuel sending unit and corrosion around the lock ring. Very common for GM trucks of this era. I tried the purge valve and it did not fix the issue. It was also a major pain to get to.
    I had misfires in my 2008 Canyon and never completely solved them before I got rid of it. I changed coil packs and plugs but hindsight was that it was likely a leaky fuel injector causing issues when the engine was restarted when slightly warm.

  • @punishmentlibby
    @punishmentlibby 2 роки тому +2

    In Autozones defense the scanner they have us use takes a guess at the solution. I'm personally more experienced then the other guys and NEVER recommend the repair the print out states will fix the problem. Its not the Autozone employees guessing, its the system. Most of the individuals who work at AZ dont know much about diagnostics and you definitely shouldn't ask them technical questions. Thats what you pay Automotive technicians for not Parts Specialists. If you choose to listen to a AZ employee because you're being cheap you have noone else to blame but yourself. Go to a tech and have it properly diagnosed is your best plan.

    • @themechanic6117
      @themechanic6117  2 роки тому +1

      💯 percent agree with you. I know it's the system that recommends the parts not the person . To be fair ,guessing a bad purge valve during a evap leak is a pretty good guess . In the video I was more ranting about how customers blindly follow autozones recommendations which like you said comes out to being the customers fault. Thank you for the detailed comment. 👍

      This truck has bald tires, I'm sure he's not worried about polishing headlight. That sounds like something that can be a easy "come back" if the owner thinks the headlights don't look as good as they should. The low price is not worth the headaches.

    You really shouldn't be giving away free diagnostics just because the customer says autozone scanned it. And ideally not be installing customer supplied or autozone parts.
    Legit shops dont.

      Measure the resistance on the network wires, to see if you lost a terminating resister in the ABS. If so, there WILL be future issues.
