rev up your engines, silver grizzly says
Scotty what do you think of the new
Honda CRV my girlfriend bought of 2017
back in November it has nothing but
problems with AC and the dealership
can't figure it out, yeah that's
what I tell people about Honda's if you
go back in the 1980s Toyota and Honda
they were neck and neck for making the
best vehicles in the world but Honda
they just started going down down down
now they're nothing like the junk
Chrysler puts out, but they're not as
well made as they used to be I mean
that's just the way of the world these days
and I mean it's under warranty if they
can't figure out what's wrong it's BS
they just don't want to put any time and
energy into it, the computer systems
control that AC system and could easily
be a computer control problem and since
it's under warranty they don't spend any
time working on it cuz they're not making
any money if she keeps it it still
doesn't work right and when it's out of
warranty
then they'll tell her they can figure out
what's wrong for you know thirty five
hundred dollars, I see that all the time
but have her just yell at those people
and have them fix it, don't let them get
away with not fixing it right, they built
the car they gotta take care of it if
not let them buy it back under the lemon
law
Maurice, says is a jeep better than
a Nissan that's a good toss up there now
if you're talking about the cheapest
Nissan's like the Sentra's and stuff the
higher end jeeps are, now I would not buy
one of those Jeep renegade, renegade my
rear end, those are just fancy
four-wheel-drive Fiats, they have nothing
to do with Jeep, so if you're talking
about a regular Jeep with a six-cylinder
engine, I say the Jeep is better than a
Nissan in general, now there are specific
Nissan's that are better than others and
their are specific Jeeps like the renegade
that are total garbage, so you know you
gotta, you can't just compare one entire
range of cars to another range you'd
have to get specific examples, but what I
said it pretty much stands true the
better jeeps are better than the cheaper
Nissan's these days, woods says
Scotty I just purchased the 2004 Pontiac
GTO with seventy five thousand miles
for nine thousand bucks what do you
think about the purchase and what's your
thoughts on the ls1 motor, okay I'm not a
Pontiac fan but you bought the one
that has ls1 Corvette engine that is a
very good engine, the Pontiacs were like
meh, they weren't so hot, but you got the
fancy one with the Corvette engine
take care of it, you paid seventy five
hundred bucks with that mileage that's a
decent price if the car is in excellent
shape, because with the ls1 engine it's a
completely different beast than the guys
that bought the v6 Pontiacs with the
front-wheel drive that were just garbage
they fall apart when they got that old you
might have a really good one if it runs
great take care of it, because those are good
engines, the other ones no but that LS1
engine it's a good engine, Marc
Melton said Scotty old oilfield trash
here, well you must be in Texas, my 2002
dodge Cummings is 230,000 miles runs
great but trucks falling apart around the
engine do I keep painting it, yeah you're
oil field trash I wouldn't even paint
it what would you care, but yeah that's
the problem and I tell people that all
the time, I see those Cummings engines
but unfortunately Chrysler built the
rest of the truck and they fall apart as
they age, but if you don't mind to
continue to fix it and driving around
yeah and if you do want to paint it, go
to those places like Maaco that paint
a car for 200 bucks and get the cheap
paint jobs cuz then if something major goes
wrong you haven't invented too much
money, you know if you paint a truck with
a true professional painter and you want
a factory Sheen, you're gonna spend three
four five thousand dollars it's not
worth doing that, cat victory says is
there any preventive maintenance that
should be done on an old AC system in an old
1994 Toyota truck thanks, change the fan
belt, and have a pro like me just hook some
gauges up to see if it needs a little
refrigerant because all air conditioning
systems leak a little refrigerant over
time, even Toyotas, because the compressor
runs off the fan belt and so the shaft
that goes into the compressor has a seal
on it, when it's spinning if that seal was
perfect and didn't leak it would dry up
and all the refrigerant would leak out
so they're made so they leak a tiny
amount of refrigerant, refrigerant oil, to
lubricate that seal now it might be a
long time like my
wife's Lexus is 17 years old and it wasn't until
it was 17 years old that it ever had to have any
refrigerant put it so it leaked so slow
it lasts for 17 years, so you might want
have that check, but I know other than
that there's really nothing you do other than
look at your condenser in front
of the radiator make sure it doesn't
have bugs to clean it out and keep
leaves out of your drain under your
windshield because the leaves can get in
and they can clog up evaporator inside the dash
that's basically all you really have to
do, so if you never want to miss another
one of my new car repair videos,
remember to ring that Bell!
