I replaced all my 02 oxygen sensors on my 2002 Infiniti i35 for the total of $136. Now it's running like the day it was shipped out of the manufacturer factory. The dealership and chain auto repair shops was quoting me between $233-478 per sensor. Thanks Scotty for your helpful tips 👍🏾👌🏾

Thank you Scotty. If I still lived in Houston I would travel across town to have you work on my vehicles. I use to live on the West side of Houston around Dairy Ashford and Memorial. I never let the maintenance go on any of my vehicles having gotten 20 1/2 years out of one vehicles and 18 years out of another. I lived in Houston for 29 years until 33 years ago when I moved to NKY. I miss Texas

Wife got the same code on her 05' Escape. So I switched the coils, and the misfire moved, so it was the coil in this case. New coil, no more misfire. Like Scotty says, do the most logical thing first.

The most amusing customer I ever had, back in my service-writing days, paid her bill, walked out to her car, left, then came back complaining we had installed the hubcaps upside-down on her 80-something Ford Thunderbird. The store manager snagged the keys, while I offered her a cup of fresh coffee. She had just picked up the sugar shaker when he brought her keys to her, telling her she was all set (grinning from ear to ear, of course). It was all I could do to keep a straight face as I watched him pull her car forward a foot & a half or so. She was happy, I laughed til I cried

Wife bought a small RV based on a 2000 Ford E350 Super Duty 6.8 V10 Took it on a long trip, at the end of the first day it had a strange missfire that went away. The next day it started missing going up a hill. Acted to me like a lack of fuel. Replaced the fuel filter in the parts store parking lot.Ran fine most of the next day. Starting missing again under a load.Took it to a Ford dealer. They said it had a miss on one cylinder. They changed one spark plug and one coil. I planned to repace the rest when we got home. Ran good the next day started running rough toward the end of the day. Got it to an independant shop. The replaced the other 9 spark plus and coils. When they were done it still had a miss and they said it needed a catalytic convertor. We got the rig to our destination. I dropped the convertor for a visual inspection. Found nothing wrong with it. On the way home it , was intermittantly running bad. Took it to another ford dealer where they determined it had a bad fuel pump, which turned out to be the problem all along. Now running great. Was an expensive trip.

I live near Charlotte people run red lights often. I think some people think a red light is the same as a stop sign, or a yield sign.
Thats one old school badass mechanic 😎, "if i can hear it i can tell what it is"
Nice! Can you show us how to change spark plugs for Toyota Sienna? Everyone says differently about how to change them. Thanks!
Them beauty cover actually are soundproofing for engine noise
Yeah , never overlook the lowly spark plug. Happened to me once years ago. Had an intermittent misfire on # 3 cylinder. Would only occur in certain weather conditions. Changed wires. Then changed coil pack. As a last resort changed #3 plug(plugs were changed about 6 months earlier). Turned out to be the plug. Never would have thought that because of the intermittent occurrence.
My friend has had his shop for 25 years. He has a lawyer on standby because he is in court a few times a year by dumb customers trying to sue him. He changed the brakes on a customers car and three months later her motor blew and she took him to court blaming him. It got threw out because he didn't even touch the engine. He has camera's up recording his work to for protection.
Scotty u should put up like a little questionnaire up about cars making noises and see how many people can give I a quick answer in identifying the problem I think that would be cool
scotty's common sense is priceless 👑

Scotty, what do you think of the 2008 Ford Focus, specifically the ones with manual transmissions? Mine has 90,400 miles on it and I'm wondering if there's any maintenance I should be planning for. Thanks!
Great information! Comic relief in the world of car troubles! Why the hell don’t you have your own tv show?
Front motor mount (kinda behind the radiator) is known to go bad on those Volvos. Easy to replace. Jayman...
Scotty, great videos curious though why are all your customers cars are so dirty?
Scotty. When changing the spark plugs, should I put anti-seize on the threads?
Hey Scotty huge fan watch you all the time I got a 02 Cadillac dts it's about 207,000 now what's best way to maintain it and keep running and better than it was new or things to look for??
Wow, a lot of pollen on that there Kia. Spring has sprung in Texas
Loved the Nancy Pelosi image for crazy woman reference. 👍🤣🤣🤣

Nice video, but changing one plug on that is EASY. Idk about changing all of em. Maybe retighten them if it was me.
Scott I have a 2015 chev. Silverado When I'm going down the road in the day time my volt gauge well drop down to 12 volts but if I turn my lights on with in 2 to 3 miles the voltage moves up to 14
Not surprised Fontana, California made the list. Anyone who has driven the 210fwy or the 10fwy know what I’m talking about.
This happened to me last month. Tried everything he said , and of course it had to be bad lifters.
What is the best spark plugs to use for a 2016 Malibu LS? What type of fuel treatment do you recommend

Hey Scotty my mom has a 2014 Dodge Durango with 161,000 miles. It has been a very reliable car, we only had to replace a radiator hose last year. Also it has the 3.6 v6 and a CVT. How come you think Chrysler makes poor quality vehicles?

Hello Scotty, I will start college from next semester and I need a reliable car that lasts very long, gives great mileage and with a back camera because I’m not that good at parallel parking.

Mr. Kilmer, I called my local mechanic shop and asked them how much for a fuel filter change in my 07 Camry base model with 79,500 miles for preventative maintenance. They said it would cost you $350.00 for the parts and labor. They were also hesitant and said they wanted to do a diagnostic test first. Thoughts on the price and "diagnostics." Car has no issues other than stupid TPMS light.

Hey scottyyyyy love watching your videos!!! I have a 1999 tercel that i left parked for around 4 weeks in winter with a disconnected battery. When i got back it didn't start and a mecanic changed the wiring or something and made it start. Now every time its veryy cold here in Québec its doesnt start with no noise when i turn the key. Almost like it the ignition is not responding and sends no power to the starter. When its not too cold starts right up. Starter relay?fuel pump? Moisture in fuel?Thanks in advance hopefully:-)
