DiagnoseDan Hello Dan, i'm following you a few months. I like the way you solve the problems. I need your help. I have a passat 2.0 tdi model 2008.

Thank you for your time.

George K, I would like to help of course. But it's tricky to go just by codes. To know for sure what's wrong a proper diagnosis must be performed. The electric motor,Power and grounds need to be checked.😎

Dan, you're amazing. I am an avid watcher of Scanner Danner and have learned a huge amount from his channel. Thing is he mainly deals with US machines, very nice but not relevant here in the UK. So when I found you it was gr8 to find someone just as amazing as Paul but on cars relevant to Europe. Huge thank you for everything you share with us. Gr8 vidz, educational, entertaining and fun to watch‼️

To further support Alec's comment, I'm in the states and I'm a scannerdanner subscriber too. I think I've watched all of his videos multiple times and I have his book. Danner's video's have been very helpful to me as I do work on many of the models in his videos. He's excellent. I'm a man that can admit to my shortcomings though. The European cars have been a challenge to me. Until I found DiagnoseDan, I was kind of lost when it came to vehicles on the other side of the pond. lol. I've always known the Euro cars were essentially doing the same thing ours are, I just didn't know how. Thanks to DiagnoseDan, I've gained a huge amount of knowledge and a FUNDAMENTAL understanding of these systems. I'm no longer worried about taking on that BMW with a weird running problem. Thanks to you DiagnoseDan!!! YOU are definitely the European version of Scannerdanner. Coming from me, that is the highest compliment I can give anyone in this field. Thank you! Keep the videos coming. I can't tell you how much I appreciate the work you're doing to help all of us.

For my sins, I went and bought a Benz CL600 m137 2002 that had been sitting for 4 years and before that, zero maintenance other than oil and filters. It was a non runner. It has symptoms in symptoms and issues that have compounded and spawned new super issues! Finding this channel is my saviour

Could watch and listen to you all day! Brilliant, thanks Dan, please keep them coming!

Your not only a good mechanic,!but also a great teacher. I have leaned a lot from watching you video. Thanks for the excellent video!

Just found your channel tonight, binge worthy!!!! Every tech needs to think like this, follow a process that reflects on how a system is designed and the symptoms should lead to discovery...... AND!!!!.... confirmation that the original problem is actually gone after the repair!!! Great job Dan!!!!

I'm so pleased to have discovered your channel. Your videos on car diagnostics are by far the most helpful I've viewed, and I've watched a lot. Thankyou for sharing your expertise and knowledge with us.

As a machinist and engine builder, and one who loves diagnostics, Dan you have an excellent and thorough way of explaining everything. My former boss/mentor was the same way. Keep the videos coming.

What a guy Dan is. He thanks us for the good comments in the previous videos, when it is us that should be thanking him for every video this Legend makes and shares with us. Thank you DAN. 🤗🤗🤗

Simple, concise and knowledgable with a spot on diagnosis. Absolutely brilliant channel !

One of my favorite Auto Technicians. Thank you Dan.

His viedeos are much better and clearer than other "native" speaking guys, love his calm and steady speach and showing stuff clearly.

Excellent video again Dan. I like the way you explain it fully from diagnose it to repair.

Dan you saved me time on the c300 I bought for my son. After throwing coils and plugs at it ( never a bad idea) I still had codes. I ordered injectors (also not a bad idea with 108k) and after getting the fuel rails off and wiring loose enough, I figured the intake is much easier to R&R at this time. Sure enough the valve that controls the butterflies on the intake runners was completely broken. Much easier that reassembly and them removing all togas tedious wires and vacuum lines I’m well versed with American cars, you saved the day

This weekend was a special one for me. My daughter turned 8 and we had an amazing birthday party for her. And also I discovered Diagnose Dan.

Holly shit, I'm really impressed! You've got some serious diagnosing skills man

Love your thorough and methodical approach to problem solving Dan. The intake manifold is a very common problem on the MB M272 engine. It is an awful design and to make matters worse you need to buy the whole unit from MB for stupid money. Usually it is the main (plastic!) tumbler lever that breaks first so surprised to see this one still intact. You can probably tell I have replaced a few of these manifolds. Keep up the great work!

thats a good way of diagnosis Dan.thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Mr. Amazing. Dan. Keep up y The great work. Videos and intel lenience . Your super smart and I believe my opinion , my opinion counts as I have also been a tech for over 25 years! You are a great inspiration to us all !!! Keep up the GREAT WORK !

Wao, Dan, you look so passionate on what you do....and your explanation so clear and precise. awesome job....Thanks for your knowledge and share.

I'm a builder hoping to learn sufficient to stay informed and maybe do some of my own work now. I bought a 2008 6 series and the day after purchase engine management light diagnosis was for 6 new injectors. My garage allowed me to do the job at their workshop. This car was meticulously serviced by BMW- they told me. Full service history from them. However, when I found they had mixed injectors contrary to their info spec, and the air filter was many years old ( it was date stamped ), the trust dwindled. Recently I drove it through a ford and a load of lights came up afterward. Some guy diagnosed it saying it was not worth repairing. 6k waste of car. I don't think so. My garage don't seem interested. So here I am loving your vids Dan.

very nice work brother Thank you for the step by step diagnosis and explanation. You got great knowledge.
