    Does the 2017 NX200t have a throttle body/plate? I can't figure out where it would be on my wife's NX and, if there is one, would love to see a video on how to access/clean it. If it isn't a viable task for you to do in the near future, no worries. Thanks Viktor!

    • @Viktor_G_Automotive
      @Viktor_G_Automotive  Рік тому +1

      Yes, it has a throttle body/plate, located between the engine and the firewall, you can’t really see it from the top.
      If I get my hands on an NX sometime in the future, I’ll try to make the video, but don’t know what the timeframe on that would be.

    Hi Viktor, new subscriber here. I need to top off the radiator coolant on my 2015 NX200T (92K). The cold level has dropped just above the lower hose. I have two questions, should I buy coolant from dealer to ensure I have same mixture or can I use after market? Dealer is twice the cost. I will probably stick with dealer to make sure It is the same chemistry coolant. I appear to have a slow leak. Can you do a video on common places to look for leak? Fox example, can you show us how to look for the water pump weep hole if it has one? Also, can you provide video how to pressure up system so we can simulate hot conditions? I am a little nervous doing this, I don't want to over pressure, I think a shop did this to me on one of our other cars and I ended up with an intake manifold leak. Thanks for the videos. I have just started watching your playlist.

    • @Viktor_G_Automotive
      @Viktor_G_Automotive  Рік тому +1

      I would use Toyota coolant only.
      One common leak area on those is the water pump.
      I can make a video on its replacement if I get a chance one day.
      Thanks for watching!

      They do make a lot of Toyota water pumps, transmissions etc. though, so I trust the AISIN brand.
