    Former Nissan employee here. You know...the guys in the service department actually brought up that one more than one occasion they've lost business due to people saying, "I'll just ChrisFix it." You've really made an impact on many people's lives including my own. Even as an employee at a car dealership, I handled all of my own service through watching your channel and saved a grand total of 3166.25. Yes I calculated it every time. Thank you, buddy. You're a handier Robinhood.

    Quick tip:
    To prime the fuel pump on a push start, push the start button twice without your foot on the brake pedal. This will put it in the Run position without starting the ignition and will activate the fuel pump. You also have to put the ignition in the Run position without the engine running in order to reset your oil life on these 2.4l 200’s. Obviously it still started, so no big deal. But if the battery was weak enough, the starter cranking while the fuel system was priming itself could have killed the battery before the engine finally started

In these transitions, your voice is a constant stream of words, but the images combine excerpts of previous shot sequences. This is not criticism, but comment on good production technique, and your audience / viewers evidently appreciate the effort. BTW--

    It's really not a good idea to use medium strength threadlocker on screws that go into plastic!
    From the permabond website: "Anaerobic threadlockers are used for metal fasteners; they should not be used on plastics as metal ions are required to cure the material, and they can stress crack plastics."
    I found this out the hard way when some new plastic parts fell off my car that I had used blue loctite on.

    My favourite things about ChrisFix videos is 17:08. "...and we are not using this special machine, we gonna do it by hand". This is by far the most valuable part. No fancy expensive shit. Just a tiny 9volt battery, some bog-standard 99% alcohol, rubber gloves, air compressor. Simple things, or at least something one can relatively easily rent out for a day.
    Anyone can fix anything if they have the tools do the fixing for them.

    If I can give Chris more than 1 like, he will be getting 10 .
    There are good mechanics, but I just love Chris's tidiness and thoroughness.
    It is such a pity we are not in the same country.
    Still it is so entertaining and educational just to watch how he does things.
    Thank you Chris! 👍

    2 things: when dealing with gasoline use nitrile gloves, some gloves dissolve in petrol! ALSO with push-start cars sometimes the fuel pump activates when you open the drivers door (Or even unlock the car sometimes)

I drive a 2019 Honda crv and if I, without stepping on the brake, press the button once, it is the same as turning the key once. If I press it again, it is in accessory mode. All of the electronics come on and I can hear the fuel pump prime. If I press it again it shuts off.
