Wouldnt touch modern hybrids with a barge pole, the prius suffers from components running constantly like the electric water pump which throws up a hybrid battery low fault, not always the battery on them
Numbers are going up from what I’ve seen. It’s a titanic going to the bottom of the dark sea
Electric cars are a dying breed, and I have no interest in learning about them
👍
Why are you using gloves with CAT3 meter? You dont need gloves with CAT3 meter, you already protected to 1000v, and you only working with 400, why make it difficult for yourself?
How much nm is needed on screws conection/terminals ?
Good explanation and im requesting to add video on bosch passthru services
Would this be why my car revs up and down and stills out
Doing roadside assistance I see this with mitsi keys at least every second week
A 2L V6 1KD FTV engine?
👍
Good info and great solution, thanks Jeff
😊
Can this be used for non hybrid cars?
👍
Interesting, with those symptoms & codes i would have looked at fuel supply first. Experience for the win.😊😊😊
I was surprised how well the Chatbot works. If you are specific enough, you get some real legitimate suggestions. Looking forward to seeing the benefits.
👍
Looks like both will be useful and powerful tools, great job guys.
Great idea. Is that the real Jeff? Or AI Jeff? Lol
Looks like a great idea. I'll have a look this afternoon.
How much does it cost?
The video is good, audio is terrible.
👍
This is the same person & repair video which is in Romano’s Automotive Repairs Channel!
👍
Hi, My battery light came on and the car just stalled. wont start. mechanic says no codes. sprayed diesel in intake car starts and runs until spray stops. Battery light still on. fuel tank pump sounds like it is working. Any solutions
I'd try disconnecting the low fuel cut wire.
You are a legend mate. I currently have this problem with my A6! Love your work identifying the problem and sharing
👍
👍
Thank you for this video on Sa Subaru Hatchbacks, quite helpful.
Good find, I always check the condition of all hosing on older cars, it can cause miss fires and that can divert repairers to apparent electrical faults. Cheers Jeff
How about mk7 i have the same problem but cant find the fuse
I know this is a old video but are you guys still running scope courses in Perth?
Spot on. 100%
Had exactly that problem with my 2013 diesel SZ. It used to surge intermittently at motorway speeds and then one day it died on the motorway at 100km/h, very exciting, the dash indicated it still had 50 km to empty. When the car was new I got down to 5 km to empty while on a country trip so I knew it shouldn’t stop with 50km of fuel left. The breakdown truck arrived and I said it seemed like it ran out of fuel so he through 5 litres in it, we primed it as per the operation manual and away we went!! Took it to the Mechanic who did a scan and discovered a low pressure error code and replaced the tank lift pump. Maybe asking clients about surging at lower fuel tank levels may be a vital clue.
I get you point on faulty parts but your using worldpac and could have easily gotten a oem valve, which working on any german brand is pretty much parts buying 101. Either you or your customer was trying to be cheap and you paid the price.
That tool can also be placed over ignition coils - the light flashes if the coil is working
Nice tool, thanks Rob, another good easy fix
Nice video
Good find and fix thanks Rob. In electronics terms they are cold solder joints, very liable for bad connections in later life 🤔
I drive a Mazda 3 2006 2.3 Manuel. Mine still doing the same thing and it stalls out right when I turn it on in the morning why is that?
Hope you are well. Your channel videos are excellent. You already have a 11.1K subscriber which is a huge number. but unfortunately, your videos are not reaching the right people who really find in search about your content niche. They do not reach your videos in search results when they search for them. That's why your video's views and reach are very low. So I have some plans for your channel. Can I share?
how much you charged like just asking for a idea
Isn’t it crazy, I was at a trade event tonight (in Ireland) I was speaking to a Bosch representative and spoke about how Scanner Danner got us hooked on Snap on & wondered why Bosch didn’t ever try similar 🤷🏼♂️🤷🏼♂️ I was probably only plugging my own channel, seeing if I could get something for free 😬😬😬 Then I arrive home to a KTS review, well done guys. It does look good with ye promoting it 👍👍
NEXT REVIEW ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, PLEASE .
Thank you, i just did a t belt kit. The new tensioner bleeds down over night and rattle when cold. Can i live with it until it is constant? Thank you
"Much more than a she'll be right type of repair". Never heard of one of those. Definitely not. Nope. I promise. 😂
Excellent info and explanation of the problem I have with my Captiva. Two mechanics have not been able to find and solve the problem. Has taken a while to locate the RIGHT info to fix the car. Hopefully it will be solved by doing what you've explained. I'd rather not have to remove and dismantle the injectors to free them up, but will do if required.
I have the same model prado with what i suspect to be this exact problem. What would be a fair price to expect to pay for this the get diagnosed and replaced? Cheers
