Happy new year Matt! I'm glad to see you're back uploading videos for us. I know you're very busy. Looking forward to your next video. Thumbs up my friend!

just found your channel.....brilliant...trying to figure out relays and watched your two videos from years ago...thank you so much for a clear explanation which will help me in trying to find electrical problems in my sons car. subscribed as you have so much information and help here...all the best from Western Australia! ;-)

Fantastic initial diagnosis. Really hope the next part of the diagnosis is filmed. This is interesting. Happy new year Matt.

Matt, Really enjoying the videos. Thanks for sharing! While it definitely could be the head gasket that you mentioned at 7:58 related to the broken hose fitting. Just wanted try to give back a little and share a couple thoughts. Given that she mentioned the gauge just went "a little over the half" at 9:00. As always, I'm sure you will properly diagnose before tearing into the head. At 2:12 we heard that there was dark smoke. Usually a blown head gasket will cause coolant to reach the combustion chamber and come out as white smoke, not usually described as dark smoke. Years ago while working in the dealership, I have been successful at confirming head gasket failure by introducing compressed air into the cylinders, with each at TDC, via spark plug hole (using a compression test hose) and look for coolant level rising in the radiator. Other thought is that since there was some work done recently around the CKP sensor, I would check the timing alignment marks to make sure the chain didn't jump. A detail that may support this theory is the dark smoke which would be caused by a severe rich condition which could happen if a timing was off, along with the sound of the engine while cranking. We look forward to the follow-up video.

Definitely looking forward to the next video. It'd be interesting to see your approach on confirming a good bottom end on an engine with lack of compression. 👍Thanks for sharing bud

Your a very kind Man! I have learned tons watching your videos!

Happy new year Matt, I am sure that Juanita will have the best repair thanks to you ;) A big hug from Spain

Thanks pablo- always nice to see you here!

Great to see another video Matt. Really enjoy them. On the radiator hose, it looks like the plastic connector section broke probably due to many heat cycles and age. This type of plastic part break @ 6:35 was likely invisible to person adding radiator fluid. This is an expected failure. Those type of parts last only 10 years and less in cold temperature environments. Do not forget to add to the list other related plastic and rubber parts like radiator, radiator hoses, heater core hoses.

Very nice of you. People should really be more aware of the problems that come from an over heating engine. Interested in the follow up

If your car overheats, stop driving. It is really that simple. Some people shouldn’t be allowed to drive.

I’m interested in seeing the follow up to this video. I recently had an overheat situation on my 2.4L Jeep and Dealership advised it was blown head gasket due to clogged heater core and quoted me $3600 to fix. The car is not even worth that so I will be doing the repairs. Looking forward to what comes of this engine. Love the scientific approach of your diagnosis of issues.

Hello Matt, I have a question not related to this video.When my engine is cold, it has a really rough idle, which improves under load.I've checked for vacuum leaks, but can't find any.I am suspecting my egr valve(btw my car only has OBD-I, so i can't collect any data).I watched your diagnosis and understanding videos on egr, but the egr valve is electronically controlled , so how would i go about checking if it works properly?

Thanks for the quick response, I really appreciate it!I had already taken of the egr, so I took some jumper cables and manually added 12v, but nothing happened.After that i checked my connector and checked the power and what i thought was the ground, but 1 was 5v and the other was 1.8 v. Any idea how that is possible? According to the wiring diagram these two should activate the solenoid. The wire colors are the same as in the wiring diagram. This should just be a ground and a power right?

Wow! I never let anybody touch my vehicle anymore, better safe than sorry. Plus I learned the hard way when I took my bmw in for a basic heated evap valve recall. Told them I did all the maintenance. 2007 530xi. It never made it off the lot. The whole serpentine systems shattered as soon as I turned the motor over. Now isn't that weird. Wasn't even making a sound before hand. "Dead silent" I think they went prying on sh!t, the service packet said it was on its way out. NEVER AGAIN!

I don't understand why the shop didn't perform more checks. I'm not an automotive technician, but if someone came to me with a car that was getting hot, I'd check coolant, run it, verify with OBD II as well as IR temp gun on radiator and upper/lower hoses to see if it's actually getting hot, or if it's just a sensor reading wrong, if it is hot I would investigate further. I don't understand "mechanics" that just toss more coolant in it and call it a day. There's a reason for everything. If there's anything we can do to help Matt, please let us know. Also, I'll be following to see if there's a go fund me or anything. That's awesome of you to do this for people.

I would not waste anymore than an hour checking that engine. It severely overheated and now won't run. Compression sounds low through cranking and relative compression failed. Swap a used engine in it, fix the radiator hoses and send it on its way if its getting fixed. I would not bother tearing the head off. An overheat overheats the entire engine, stressing the rings potentially causing an oil burning issue later on.

Oh so the hose blew off the fitting on the radiator. Presuming the car actually didn't leave the shop that way, I have an idea on how that might have happened- I think that presuming the overheat was caused by something else (like maybe a stuck thermostat), maybe when the head gasket started to fail, there could have been enough pressure build up in the cooling system to blow the hose off of the connection. Not sure if that is what happened, just a guess.

@@SchrodingersBox I heard her say sheepishly that it had been getting hot before they topped it off. What mechanic is going to work on her vehicle when she doesn't want to spend money on it? What mechanic is going to disconnect her hose? Nothing against you, but don't tell me you haven't seen this before.

Wow you only charge 60p for changing head gasket I will pay you to change mine haha

Very kind of you! We'll see what she needs first and I may set up a go fund me if needed.

Steam conversion rate is about 1600 to 1. Could have had a small leak or a previously bad head gasket that caused overheat issue and she kept driving it on the highway and causing the pressure to blow off her plastic radiator neck. Don’t be so quick to throw someone under the bus without “ empirical scientific evidence “ I have been standing next to a car with a bad radiator cap and low coolant that exploded the top of the radiator off at idle, so it is possible.

From my experience working on Chrysler products, it would be best to SELL THE CAR ASAP! Sell it for $100 and move on. Even if you manage to repair the engine or replace the engine, Jaunita will continue to have problems with the car. Just buy a 10 year old Hyundai or Kia for around $3K. Problem solved...

With your experience, what are these supposed "problems" specific to Chrysler. I work on thousands of cars and don''t see ANY make or model with consistent issues other than poor maintenance.

Yeah nobody has one of those

engine swap

How does anybody with more than 3 brain cells keep driving with warning bells and lights going? Does she have an endless bank account and just happens to like shitty cars?

With all the videos you've made on KZread, not once have you shown your live-in homosexual boyfriend. You can show him here and there, I'm sure your viewers won't pass judgment. Hope you have a good 2019

That’s like the 12th time you requested to see a gay guy on this channel. It seems you are commenting more about your own fantasies than you are on your assumption of my lifestyle.

Joeandgog1 Your in the wrong channel looking for gay boyfriends, maybe try another place .But in a way homophobics are undercover homoxesual. Look further for some one else to butter your buns. Sorry to intervene Matt. Happay new year.

I was gonna say by the sound of that crank the engine is dead, time to call the crematorium. But oops, it's already been cremated!

Yeah it sounds horrible. I suspect compression leakage between 2 adjacent cylinders based on the sound.

Talk entirely to much

And that’s why you have no clue how to do this stuff. the talking is teaching you how to not be a hack you fool. stay basic.
