The Basic Parts of a Car -EricTheCarGuy

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

"The Basic Parts of a Car" has actually been a long standing request to me, I was glad to be able to fill that request with this video. I will say that I didn't cover EVERYTHING but I feel this is a pretty good overview of the basic components of a modern car. Feel free to add your own input in the comments. Here are those video links I promised that may give you more in depth information.

    Just in case you guys didn't know, you can actually take apart the basic parts of a manual transmission car in a video game called Car Mechanic Simulator. It's available on several platforms and is a great way to visually see the assembly of a car's brake system, suspension system, and of course engine (several types, including V4, V8, SOHC and DOHC). Careful though - it's addicting.

    You should make a video explaining general automobile parts, like what they are used for and what their purpose is in a vehicle. I recently got a job at NAPA Auto Parts and I only have basic knowledge about cars. I've been trying to find information about more complex auto parts and shit like that, and you're the only person on youtube that actually knows what they're talking about. If you could help me, that would be incredible.

    You guys don’t need a dad or a dad that knows about cars to be a young car enthusiast. I’m one myself and my did could give 3 less shits about cars and I’m just totally in love with them! Anyone who has true and committed love for a vehicle will find out ways around a problem and that’s something y’all gotta do. I’m taking automotive class to inform myself better and i was surprised on how much information I knew. That class is my easiest class and I did it without help just my own research and looking into cars online and watching some car enthusiast channels and it takes a long time but car knowledge honestly comes with time it doesn’t just come in a second there’s a lot to learn about automotive industry. Wish you all the best of luck

    You make the best how-to videos. You don't miss a detail and make it easy to understand. You don't skip any steps that you would just expect someone to understand, even if its a minor detail, you go over it. I'd like to just say thank you for the interesting videos, and I'm actually learning something of value yet it keeps me interested and not lost.

    I'm 16, trying to learn how to drive, and with that, I'm also interested in learning how cars work and maybe even learning enough about mechanics to fix my own (future) car if needed. I'm glad there's videos like this out there, I have a bunch of different videos lined up in a playlist to help get even at least the gist of things but I'm not expecting to become a prodigy overnight lol. Hopefully, despite this video being made in 2012 watching this and some other videos along with help from friends and family over time, I can acquire some knowledge in mechanics, I did the same thing with guns but even then I'm far from a master or gunsmith lol. Thanks for the video, I'm hoping I can learn from this, as one of your commenters said: "I really appreciate people like this who put their knowledge and years of experience out on to youtube so we can all learn from one another" -Josh Qaszq.

    Eric. You are definitely the car guy for drivers like me who were/are clueless to what is under the hood. I was captivated for the entire 36 minutes and tried my best to keep up with your rapid but clear descriptive modulated exciting speech. (I will rewatch and pause and be ready for pop quiz!) Seriously, Thank you so much. Like the rest of your audience here- We feel better after watching and learning. After so many years of driving and not knowing the basics (too embarrassed to say how many) I am no longer afraid to look under the hood :o) Thanks for the links for more auto knowledge. Happy Holidays! to all.

And then proceed with whatever the customer needs. (Oil change, brakes, tires, battery, etc.)

Apparently, back in the days before modern auto safety standards, when my mom and/or her brother would get bored on long road trips, they would lay across that shelf and my grandpa would tell them jokes, so... laughing place. I still call it that sometimes and my wife looks at me like I'm insane lol
