The tone of your voice through-out this video ... this must have been one of the most calming auto repair videos I have ever seen. The Bob Ross of car repair - anything can happen in your Toyota World...
tesla graveyard lol - I like the new format video - thanks for your video I appreciate them and are very informative. those beauty covers would drive me crazy
scotty kilmer was my favorite channel for toyota/lexus everything.. but man you are the boss and im in chicago as well. I will bring my lexus to you at some point!
I don't care what style. When I open UA-cam, I want a TCCN video waiting to be watched. Also if you could mention the total costs of the jobs as you usually do please. Thank you.
This style of video is very interesting. That's how we did it at the shop where I slaved. I just waited for you to say : "nothing loose here" aka car wizard. Lol👍☺
All known common maintenance here! I've got an 02. Rebuilt my entire front end about 6 months ago. Did the Y-Pipe past the cats a couple years ago, if you have one of these cars and have not yet removed the shielding in that area, do so, water gets in and rots out the exhaust. I would not be happy with the job that was done on the exhaust if this were my LS. It's time for a Timing Belt and Valve Cover gaskets for me too; been wondering how tough a job valve covers will be. My radiator blew up in the exact same spot! I'm hoping I can get another 150k out of this car. :)
I got a 03' LS430 Has 490,000 miles on it. Still runs strong good power still. Have done alternator, valve cover gaskets, coil pack, plugs, power steering reservoir, knock sensors, cats, starter, and motor mounts. Runs great has a couple oil leaks need fixing but other than that i dont c it not making it another 400k miles yeee best car ever
I'm five minutes in and I knew already at two minutes in it was going to be a pleasure. Smart of you there knowing the mic was going to be a problem being low and then cut to after it being moved. Of course Eros getting in could be a little smoother but that's neither here nor there. It will get better. Maybe pause until after he gets in. Customer likely changed the hood struts. The ES300 in the fleet of ours with your favorite 1MZ is falling down now when in the summer. One must wonder if the customer thinks the suspension noise is motor mounts or was told that. And now he will still have the problem after the change.. too bad.
The shop is beautiful, spotless. It's like an operating room for automobiles. Thanks for the videos, you are the best out here. The videos have helped me with my old 2001 Lexus RX300 Silversport Edition .
Great video i run a 2003 lexus gs430 sport 80.000miles still going as new had 6 RX450H 3LS400 BIG FAN OF THE BRAND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK REGARDS ALEX LONDON UK
I LIKE this video style. We get to see your technique and hear the WHY behind your analysis. The followup at the end of the video informs us of the customers choices. The comments about the muffler were informative also. NICE SHOP too.
One suggestion on your videos: a laser pointer would be a great tool for you to use to point out exactly what you are discussing - especially when looking under the car. Sometimes it's hard to see what you are talking about with just a flashlight. Otherwise, I really like your videos and especially your reviews of new models. I learn a lot about maintenance from your videos and proper care which is helpful.
This format is a WINNER! Introduction to vehicle, Drive and analys, Inspection and tally. This is the best for those of us with similar vehicles... Loved the TESLA graveyard that is where those glorified kit cars belong!
I like seeing the procedures you do to check out customer concerns and the general inspection. Show the issue, verifying the cause of the issue, and the fix.
AMD, Thanks for taking us along for the drive. I believe they call this a 'guerrilla-stye' video. I congratulate the owner for putting on a full set of winter tires but I would never risk genuine Lexus alloy rims in winter salt. 😁
The more videos the better! I can Watch them all day long. Makes me feel better about my day. Can’t wait to bring my cars into your shop. 05 Ls430/07 4Runner/ 05 RAV4 coming your way, all original no after market parts on my toys.
I've never owned a Toyota, but would consider a LS4xx to ad to my collection of 50 odd classic cars and teeruks, mostly 60s GM, a V12 BMW, a few MBs, a few older GM 6.2 & 6.5 diesels, a '91 Lebaron V6 5 speed, some 409 Chevys... All stored indoors, freezing, 1500 from where I'm working in Sunny South Florida
Really enjoyed this new style video! (Although I enjoy any of your videos) I especially liked seeing your diagnostic powers in action. Your ability to pinpoint issues just by seeing or hearing them is incredible. Awesome work!
You drove right by the Snap On truck and never missed a beat. You have more self control than me. I enjoyed this style of video where we see some of the day to day stuff.
I like it, into anything educational, diagnostic, technical as you care to get, just enthusiastic DIY person, in UK we are a much smaller market and stuck with terrible main dealers so your information is gold dust to folks who don't mind getting their hands dirty
I like this style . This is basically my approach when servicing a vehicle . BTW, missing and damaged fasteners show how much the mechanic cares and is the reason I still repair the family cars even though I left the industry decades ago .
My favorite type of video. I noticed the Valvoline oil filter. Incredibly rust free for an 05 in the rust belt. Maybe next year or next service the other repairs can be done. Plus an oem pcv valve. Your shop is very nice.
Thanks for showing another great LS430. I recently purchased my first Lexus, 03 LS 430 ❤️ it. But has a number of small problems. I’m trying to DIY myself.. please do more older LS430’s. Thank you
Wonderful video. I have 05 SC-430 pebble beach, 86,000 miles. ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL car. Turned me on to Lexus. Watched a lot of your videos before purchasing car spring of 21. THANKS for you sharing your incredible knowledge.
Please make more of this style video. Every video from you is very educational & very informative. Thank you for sharing. You are a GREAT mechanic with high ethics.
Very much enjoyed this style of video. That 430 is really pretty…well worth keeping it on the road. Silver or burgundy 430’s are so classy. Thanks for the fun!
I like this new version. Watching you during the test drive while you're trying to recognize the source of this or that noise shows experience and know-how.
I think I'll be buying an LS 430, in part due to your comments about the model. We, your audience, find you to be a very credible source of information. Thank you for your integrity.
I love this video style. Now personally, I want a 2nd video of the work being done. I dont care if it was a 2 hour plus video. Well worth it in my opinion.
If you were in my area......I would bring my car to your shop for sure....honest and thorough!! Most other shop's are hard to find honest mechanics like you!! Thank you and looking for more video's.
Really like hearing about what the customer decided on the recommended services. It gives the video a nice completion feeling. It's kind of like watching a show that you get to see the beginning middle and end.
Wow, how much fun that was to watch you go around the car in the beginning. I'm not a mechanic, but love cars and notice small, but nuanced, changed. I about fell off my chair when you first mentioned the windshield being aftermarket. Then the wheels, then the alternator. It was awesome to watch and tells me I am willing to drive to Chicago from Colorado to have you work on my 2016 Tacoma. Perhaps I'll take a week during my kiddos spring break. Thank you and I love this video, but also love watching you fix things
Good style of video. Love my high milage LS430 and I think you would happy with how pampered and over maintained it is. Thanks for posting, I always learn something watching your videos.
Awesome video. I just went to the dealer for my complementary 5k service and they couldn't figure out how to change the number of flashes on the first stage turn signal on my 2022 IS 350 F-Sport. I bought it based on your video I saw earlier. I'm happy to report that I came home, researched the Club Lexus forum and figured out how to do it myself!! Keep up the good work sir!
Maintaining our "fleet" of Corollas (2020, 2008 and daughter's 2007) I like the idea of watching pre repair inspection. BTW, Yesterday I was unable to open the trunk on our 2008, the lock was rotate and driver's side lever had no tension on it. Figured it was corrosion here in NH but just for fun checked out UA-cam videos. Turns out the problem was valet mode and a few squirts of WD40 into the lock fixed the problem. No need to pop the rear seats and crawl into the trunk. Great work, love the channel.
I like this style of video. We get to see your diagnostic abilities in action and we get to see you actually "fix" the vehicle. I like it.
Double on that
Ditto.
Double ditto
Triple ditto
Quadruple ditto
Putting new motor mounts before a new or used uncracked windshield. That makes total sense.
I remember these days. I wish the shops I worked at were this clean.
Yes, that's quite enlightening. Diagnosis & then repairs, AMD. We certainly need this....
The tone of your voice through-out this video ... this must have been one of the most calming auto repair videos I have ever seen. The Bob Ross of car repair - anything can happen in your Toyota World...
it's true
It's like car ASMR.
No happy little accidents possible here, though.
That is hilarious ! Bob Ross😂 then you got Scotty kilmer he can kind of make your head hurt..
Love it! I could watch this all day
Have you ever considered conducting online automotive repair classes? You certainly have the ability.
tesla graveyard lol - I like the new format video - thanks for your video I appreciate them and are very informative. those beauty covers would drive me crazy
the new video format is awesome, we can see the examination step by step
I love this new format, more please! And only with a Lexus/Toyota will you ever here, "This vehicle only has 229,000 miles" 🙂
Trade school youtube edition by the best professor anyone could ask for.
scotty kilmer was my favorite channel for toyota/lexus everything.. but man you are the boss and im in chicago as well. I will bring my lexus to you at some point!
Like this style video. Keep this format.. very informative.
Please make 3 of these a day. Thank you.
I don't care what style. When I open UA-cam, I want a TCCN video waiting to be watched. Also if you could mention the total costs of the jobs as you usually do please. Thank you.
This style of video is very interesting. That's how we did it at the shop where I slaved.
I just waited for you to say : "nothing loose here" aka car wizard. Lol👍☺
I like all of your videos. The new style is nice too! Keep up the great work! God bless.
Probably the cleanest garage i've seen.

You're an artist when it comes to automobile mechanics!
It's nice to see the outside of your shop.
Love your videos Brada. Actually a huge fan. Wish there's more mechanics like yourself that's honest and detail oriented. God bless you and da Family!
I got a 03' LS430 Has 490,000 miles on it. Still runs strong good power still.

Interesting! Glad you included what the owner wanted fixed.
I like this format AMD! Keep it up!

Transparency Is Good 😎
The shop is beautiful, spotless. It's like an operating room for automobiles. Thanks for the videos, you are the best out here. The videos have helped me with my old 2001 Lexus RX300 Silversport Edition .
I own a RX 330. I like seeing your inspections and your comment as to priorities, etc--Mikey in Belfair, Wa
I like this kind of video. The more the better. Thank you so much. Merry Christmas!
Great video to see how you inspect a vehicle. Good Job!
Keep this style coming. They are helpful even for diyer doing routine checks etc.
Definitely more of these videos. Loving this
He's just an all round nice guy and honest skilled mechanic. Deserves all the good word of mouth recommendations he gets!
Yes very nice video style.. In combination with the long ones as well... Thanks

Great Job AMD. I like the attention to detail of looking over the whole car. Beautiful Lexus LS 430
Yes! I like this style of video too. It helps us self diagnose our own car issues too
This format is a WINNER!
Introduction to vehicle, Drive and analys, Inspection and tally.
This is the best for those of us with similar vehicles...
Loved the TESLA graveyard that is where those glorified kit cars belong!
Very honest and wish you operation extended in Texas to other toyota mechanics there.
I like seeing the procedures you do to check out customer concerns and the general inspection. Show the issue, verifying the cause of the issue, and the fix.
I enjoyed it because it’s very real and unscripted. It’s like they Sid in the movies “It’s like a box of chocolates, you never know what you get”.
Another Lexus owner here and I like this style of video showing how things hold up (or not) on real cars that are driven a lot (200k miles)
AMD, Thanks for taking us along for the drive. I believe they call this a 'guerrilla-stye' video. I congratulate the owner for putting on a full set of winter tires but I would never risk genuine Lexus alloy rims in winter salt. 😁
I see/agree with u alot on here. What state do u reside?
@@riceburner4747 CANADA
Style of video is great especially with the aftermath talking to the customer at the end and what they want to do!
Yes really like this video would like to see more keep up the great work 👍🏻
Definitely like the new style. Its a more raw look without the editing and we get too see it in a more "real time" way. Thumbs up!
The more videos the better! I can Watch them all day long. Makes me feel better about my day. Can’t wait to bring my cars into your shop. 05 Ls430/07 4Runner/ 05 RAV4 coming your way, all original no after market parts on my toys.
I love it. I hope you do a video of the timing belt replacement! ❤
I very much enjoyed this style of video. Your inspection, troubleshooting, and diagnostic demonstration are extremely educational. Thank you .
I've never owned a Toyota, but would consider a LS4xx to ad to my collection of 50 odd classic cars and teeruks, mostly 60s GM, a V12 BMW, a few MBs, a few older GM 6.2 & 6.5 diesels, a '91 Lebaron V6 5 speed, some 409 Chevys... All stored indoors, freezing, 1500 from where I'm working in Sunny South Florida
I do like these inspections on different Lexus models with varying mileage numbers…I own a 2015 ES350 with about 31,000 miles on it. thanks.
Really enjoyed this new style video! (Although I enjoy any of your videos) I especially liked seeing your diagnostic powers in action. Your ability to pinpoint issues just by seeing or hearing them is incredible. Awesome work!
Great Job, Keep them coming!
Really liked this style of video!
You drove right by the Snap On truck and never missed a beat. You have more self control than me. I enjoyed this style of video where we see some of the day to day stuff.
Both video styles are excellent but is great to see the test drive.
Inspection videos are a fine addition to your repair videos.
I like it, into anything educational, diagnostic, technical as you care to get, just enthusiastic DIY person, in UK we are a much smaller market and stuck with terrible main dealers so your information is gold dust to folks who don't mind getting their hands dirty
The Lord has blessed you and it shows! You are a very rare mechanic, there are so many bad mechanics/shops, you are the exception to the rule!
Keep this style of video. We get to enjoy your knowledge and experience fixing vehicles
YES - it's great to see how a true expert evaluates a vehicle.
I like this style . This is basically my approach when servicing a vehicle . BTW, missing and damaged fasteners show how much the mechanic cares and is the reason I still repair the family cars even though I left the industry decades ago .
I have never seen a auto shop this clean .
Keep up the good work!
This was a very interesting style. I think for this type of car this absolutely makes sense.
You are mechanic artist, a role model. I once owned Lexus. But I am driving MB these days.
I wish you would have taken us along for the repairs also. Thanks
My favorite type of video. I noticed the Valvoline oil filter. Incredibly rust free for an 05 in the rust belt. Maybe next year or next service the other repairs can be done. Plus an oem pcv valve. Your shop is very nice.
As an Australian I can't believe the rust on some of your cars. We don't salt the roads here, no need.
Love this style of video. Nice work and keep the videos coming!!
I like the new style, it gives us a chance to see how you work though stuff. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for showing another great LS430. I recently purchased my first Lexus, 03 LS 430 ❤️ it.
But has a number of small problems. I’m trying to DIY myself.. please do more older LS430’s. Thank you
As a Lexus and Toyota owner I like all your videos. This one was a nice change. Keep up the great work.
Thank you very much for all your videos. All of your videos are very informative, but these ones are better due to the content and information.
Actually it's a useful style of video. Can learn a lot
The way that you check the front end and wiggle the wheels and mention "having play here" reminds me of my trip to my knee surgeon.
Wonderful video. I have 05 SC-430 pebble beach, 86,000 miles. ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL car. Turned me on to Lexus. Watched a lot of your videos before purchasing car spring of 21. THANKS for you sharing your incredible knowledge.
Please make more of this style video. Every video from you is very educational & very informative. Thank you for sharing. You are a GREAT mechanic with high ethics.
love these videos enjoy seeing older cars prefer older car videos
Yes I like to see your inspection process.
Very much enjoyed this style of video. That 430 is really pretty…well worth keeping it on the road. Silver or burgundy 430’s are so classy. Thanks for the fun!
I like this new version. Watching you during the test drive while you're trying to recognize the source of this or that noise shows experience and know-how.
My Father was a mechanic and he would have loved to see how much of an expert you are with cars.
Love your work Ahmed...God bless!
What is his Garage name and location?
I like this style. I enjoy the test drive too.
I think I'll be buying an LS 430, in part due to your comments about the model.
We, your audience, find you to be a very credible source of information.

Love this style of video!! Please keep these up, I learn so much!

Really like hearing about what the customer decided on the recommended services. It gives the video a nice completion feeling. It's kind of like watching a show that you get to see the beginning middle and end.
Your approach to understand the repairs to a Lexus that is 17 years old is quite interesting. I enjoyed it very much. Thank you again.
I am very impressed with the cleanliness and orderliness of your shop. Excellent.
I do like the format of the video. Its nice to see how you observe the vehicle. Thanks, Sir.
Wow, how much fun that was to watch you go around the car in the beginning. I'm not a mechanic, but love cars and notice small, but nuanced, changed.

Make sure to plan ahead he’s usually booked at least a month in advance
@@Jantonvid Great advice. Thank you.
I may have to use: "AMD, I'm your greatest fan!" 😉
I know! I just bought a twelve-year-old LS 460; it's absolutely beautiful if it needed anyting I sure wish I had this guy to work on it😢
Just love watching you work. And the big benefit....to hear you think. That's priceless.
Good style of video. Love my high milage LS430 and I think you would happy with how pampered and over maintained it is. Thanks for posting, I always learn something watching your videos.
