"Contact Cleaner"
That's great, but how to do the oppoisite? I would like back windows to open just half way. They stuck too often when fully open... 😞
Thanks for the help🙂
This might save my in-laws from ongoing expense. A C30 where wipers come on randomly and indicators intermittently won't work. My sister has a similar model of car and the CEM is flaky too. Just a terrible design fault I think.
First of all Great video, but I have a question, I recently replaced the head gasket on 2011 335d bmw now the car won’t start it cranks but won’t

Hey there just bought a 1999 Ranger XLT 4x4 with only 39k original miles it's been babied its whole life, I was wondering are there any screen units that you know of that don't require the bezel to be cut? Also if any Ranger owners gave suggestions for other upgrades please let me know! Thanks
Love my 335i...but I'm not diesel guy..I own 3..only problem is the FRM always go bad.
I have had a 335d F30 xdrive for 5 years. I like it.
Problem solved. Good and simple video! Thanks! 👍
I wouldn't touch a BMW with a 20 feet long pole
At 9;45, what is that white stuff on the wheel? I don't like it.
Thanks...
Great explanations and visual examples! You are incredibly helpful!
Still helpful many years later! I’ve done everything to my Jetta and ranger. I’ve put this off til my bearings fried coming home one night back in November. Finally getting around to it with the weather and you made me feel confident enough I’m no longer worried! Only worried about rust bolts! Onto the calliper video now because I don’t wanna mess my new ones up! Got the full assembly for breaks on the front including bearings! Once this is done, upper control arms, sway bar links and a fuel filter! I did my valve cover and intake manifold gaskets last year (2.3l) once torn down I never thought it was gunna run again but I did a good job!!!
I use a fat steel brush for hibs, but a wire wheeled grinder on the backs of wheels.
Thanks Bro!!💪🏼
Nice video. Tested my 06 350z. But I was not able to locate the long and short fuel trims. Is my scanner defected or my 350z does not have the ability to provide them via scanner? I contacted xtools but I have not heard from them. I welcome any input.
Thanks! Just what I was looking for
429a fault. 2012 E71 M57. Been working on it for 2 weeks.
😊

Will this also cause you to only have ac blowing out the defrost vents at the windshield? No matter where I turn the knob it stays there.
No, this only controls the temperature. But it sounds like you do have an issue with another actuator, similar to this.
I replaced my uppers and re used the fixed bolts that are stock and didn’t realize these were a thing. Thank you, now I can fix this damn truck alignment.
Happy to hear you were able to get it fixed and thank you for your comment.
Great video thankyou
You’re welcome!
Very clear, thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Do you still own this ranger ? Do you know how rare that black with brown stripe 98 combo is ?
Nope, sold the truck quite a few years ago. Didn’t realize it was rare. This did have carpet on the floor which I know wasn’t super common.
@4DIYers actually having a rubber floor was more rare than carpet. I own a black with brown stripe 98 4.0 5 speed 4x4 extended cab I've only seen a single cab longbed and whatever yours is that's it besides mine
Howz this possible that mazda don't sell these parts
Yea.. f-ing parts manufacturers dont have many parts for my 34 y/o Audi..
Those old Audis were great cars too! They were built to last and will outlast many new vehicles.
and now... TADAH! bottlecap chain
Looks like this is on my list of things to do as I have chirping which is likely a slightly slip on one of the belts. I plan to replace both belts and tensioners as the vehicle is 15 years old. Are the two tensioners that you removed the same part number as I can only find one list on the suppliers website?
this is insane, a 2015 not making BUSHINGS anymore??? what the hell.
The future is looking bright 💪
you are very eloquent, was nice listening to you!
Thank you!
by law they only need to make part for 7 year
I always thought it was 10yrs. Personally I think it should be at least 15 years.
Check out Rock Auto for most parts you need. Great prices as well. Way way cheaper than any local shop or dealership. Just make sure you have a part # so Rock Auto can find you something if they have.
Unfortunately no listing for those on Rock Auto. Ended up asking around on some Mazda groups who pointed me in the right direction. Some even said they had the dealer replace the subframe. If I were to do this again, I would make the bushings from nylon instead.
@@4DIYers Well crapola! I've been using Rock Auto for a few years now and got 90% of my parts. Thought maybe it would have been the same for you.
And that ending is what I do not understand with our new “extended oil change intervals” and LIFETIME transmission fluid. Lifetime for the warranty. Not for the owners. I’m getting close to wanting the bushings and such be looked at on my car (16mazda3) hard finding someone who would be willing to put in the time on my car and car for it as I would without charging me thousands.
Agreed! BMW has been doing the lifetime transmission fluid for years, like since the 90s. It's like everything is made to fail now. If you're in the same situation, I would honesty get bushings made from nylon or polyurethane. That way they're guaranteed to last.
wow
Wrecker?
No other way of removing these bushings without cutting them out. Also due to the age, all the rubbers on this vehicle are cracked. I would assume all others are the same.
Strange that they don’t have that. It’s only 9 years old. I just ordered all my coolant hoses for my 1990 Miata.
It’s cause people love the miatas
I work at gm and as much as y’all won’t like what I have to say it’s all for a good reason no manufacturer is gonna keep old lines tooled for older Gen cars cause it’s just not viable. So they make an abundance of parts for said Gen while it’s in manufacturing then once that stock is gone that’s really it for oem parts. As much as it would be nice to have a constant stream of oem parts. It’s just not realistic at all.
Yes the car manufacturer shouldn't have to keep these parts made and holding up tooling but they could do a better job making the information available to OEMs /aftermarket options. The Japanese is bad about having alternative parts available when the vehicle is fairly new.
Here is why you are wrong. Almost all of these parts are subcontracted by the 1st tier (Mazda, Ford, Whoever) for the original vehicles to 2nd or 3rd tier manufacturers. After the lifespan of that certain platform they often sell those contracts (and tooling) to other companies (sometimes the same company, sometimes not, sometimes the original company hires another 3rd tier) to provide "Service Parts" (replacement parts). These programs usually last 5, 10, 15, sometimes 20 years depending on the manufacturer and the platform (volume of product sold, number of vehicles still on the street, etc). The fact that they stopped making these after 8 years tells me they didn't sell a lot of these during their prime production years. BTW, you GM / Chrysler Engineers are fucking idiots. I think you need to learn a thing or two about your suppliers, unless you're a line worker, in which case you don't give a fuck and have no idea how it works.
I totally get what you mean by having old part lines running. But if a part doesn't last that long, then it should be improved to do so. Or better yet, a bushing is a fairly generic part and could be used across various models instead of one specific vehicle. Some other manufacturers utilize this well. That way it saves on retooling and there's support for a longer period of time.
Hockey pucks in a laith
Oh yeah..the green cult ..they're just hypocrites ..just to tax people more
Not manufacturing wear parts within a decade of selling the model guarantees I will never buy a Mazda
I thought there was a time frame where they had to have parts. 9 years does not seem like a proper length of time
Yes and no and automakers have become more then aware. Why do you think we get new vehicles every year? And after a very short window of 2-3 years many vehicles are off the production line onto the next model, and the only law forcing manufacturers too keep parts was a law passed in 75, and they only had to maintain parts for their warranty term.. so a vehicle stops production in 2020, if they offer a 5 year warranty no more small parts after 2025, but will still manufacture what they know will cause issues and charge people and arm and a leg for it even though it could be a 100$ issue like in this case. Welcome to the later stages of capitalism 😐
@@yt_alphagaming7940 Capitalism? What capitalism? I don’t think you know what that word means.
@@Jasiel.95 Planned obsolescence. Learn it. Search it. And apply it. No reason a new model of every other vehicle is needed every. single. year. and then too change such small things for no reason.
thanks for this video!
I've changed battery to fob and still no response
Very well done !
Thank you so much!
