So useless to not do so in florida?
With tire beads in my tires I notice temperature and humidity changes from day to day. I'm switching to nitrogen to lessen the effects of fluctuations in temperature and humidity. It will help a little bit
Thanks for actually showing the setting and explaining. Others didnt do that.
Great video! You saved me some dough!
Best demonstration I’ve seen for any of my f150 fixes.
Mannnn, Been needing something like this. Mine hasn’t worked for two years. Question though. I’ve got a small drip 1,2,3 drip leak directly where the hose connects to the reservoir. But I get ZERO fluid from the nozzles. That couldn’t be the total loss of pressure right? I tried to blow compressed air into the hose and some crusty dry flakes. some out.
Zero fluid out of the nozzle and a leak at the reservoir hose would equal a loss of pressure. Replace the reservoir hose to seal the line and then you can further diagnose the system if it’s still failing.
It's a shame you can't do it remotely with the key fob to put them up as well. My 2009 Volkswagen GTI was able to do up and down with the key fob remotely
Can you leave the car on the dolly’s? And if so what if you only put them in the back wheels? Thank you
Very helpful thank you so much!
Do you recommend pre-rinsing the vehicle with water prior to using the foam cannon? Are you using a microfiber towel to clean stubborn bugs and to dry off the vehicle?
My process is to pre-rinse prior to foam as I like removing as much debris before a contact wash. Some could argue it depends on how dirty the vehicle is, which would determine if a pre-rinse is needed. I use a wash mitt with soap as lubricant to clean more stubborn marks. To dry, I primarily use a leaf blower. Once again to minimize the contact.
Thank you! I recently purchased my first vehicle (Lexus NX350 hybrid) that will be my daily driver. The car detailers are pricey and don’t fit my available schedule so I’m planning on doing it myself while following my manual closely for maintenance instructions. Thanks again because this video and your response helped me tremendously!
Good video. I learned that it isn't my AC compressor - I can hear it coming on - but no cold air.
Has anyone had any luck finding a kit for a 2001 f150? im really only seeing 04-13 everywhere on amazon and ebay
dont forget to put chocks behind the back tires so it dont roll
he said it on 3:03
What city and state was this event at?
Calgary, Alberta
Thanks alot
This video was extremely helpful! I am going to buy a tread depth gauge in order to properly measure the snow tires I would like to sell. They are in great shape, but I just sold my car and the person who bought it didn’t want them because they can’t store them anywhere as they live in a small apartment. But I’ve also heard that the year the tires are made is an important thing to list. Is there a certain place on tires where this can be determined?
Thank you for the comment. This link is to a video on how to find the week and year a tire is manufactured: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z2uNrZOgf87agdo.htmlsi=XZKiN2pqm-gV8EQh
Thank you for the video link! I’ll investigate the tires I have more carefully tomorrow to check their age. I also ordered the tire depth gauge. Thanks again!
Why didnt you just lift it in the center?
Great sharing friend watching from Canada 🇨🇦 orig from Bohol Philippines 🇵🇭 I love ❤diy save money and time I don't recommend because I'm not an expert but I know how to do it
So if you have a tire that has 80% nitrogen in it, that was filled by air and then you continue to refill or top off the pressure with nitrogen won't you eventually have a tire that will reach closer to 100% nitrogen if you are constantly losing the air molecules more than the nitrogen molecules?
Thank you so much 🫶🏾🙏🏾
Thank you! This was very helpful to me.
Excellent, I hold the rotor in place by installing two lugs.
Easy enuff; BUT the air filter cover is NOT, repeat NOT, that easy to pull out. It helped to unpop the engine cover. Also, I removed the screw on the passenger side with an 8mm wrench because the "lip" is too high and blocks your way of getting to it with a normal screwdriver (you'll notice how he comes in at an angle on that screw in the video). Also, use an 8mm wrench to unsecure the inlet hose to the air filter compartment. Then you can shift the entire assembly to your right towards the driver's side and then you can pull the whole thing out, remove the old filter, give the inside a good wipe-down and install the new filter.
Man cut me some slack, you did good, now I know you stutter, and can,t count past 10, but you are dead on, thanks, I had a 17 convertible, man i just got old, so I got a 17 CT6 plt. That was junk, so I got a 4runner, so 4runner and a tundra 1794, so hey I,m cool, you be careful, keep on do,n the right thing..........BB.
ON POINT 100% SAVED ME A LOT OF TIME THANKS SUPPORT HIS CHANNEL.
This is great, thank you! Exactly what I was looking for.
@YourHomeGarage - Thanks for this video. My 2008 Odyssey AC is cooling but with very low intensity. In other words cold air coming from AC vents is not cold enough so it becomes very annoying when in summer daytime temperature here in TX is above 100 degree. It seem it is working 50%. Any suggestion please?
The kinetic diameter of nitrogen is only 5% greater than oxygen so I’m not really buying that there is a noticeable difference in pressure loss. You might have somewhat slower oxidation of the rubber from the inside but I seriously doubt it’s worth it until I’m shown data that demonstrate otherwise.
Hi l. Great video. Can I just send the tubes out through the floor of my campervan?
The 18 MM caliper bracket mounting bolts should be installed with blue loctite. Loctite is used by the factory. I have had these come loose on my F150 FX4. Because of this problem I now do my own brake repairs.
Wish I’d seen this earlier. Just purchased tires 5/17/24, and when going to register them for warranty, learned they were manufactured in Jan 2022. 🫤
Hey great tutorial. Maybe you should say the size of the sockets and that the brake pins needed a 7mm Allen. But thanks for telling us the torque. 🙄
Good tutorial. Wish you listed required tools.
Ty for this easy to follow video! As a woman, I'm glad I can find DIY videos to save me lots of $
It's crazy I had an 05 accord for 10 years. Drove the car literally across the street for work every day.(100 meters max😂) I never drove more then 10 km at a time. I never changed the battery also crushed the battery by accident the first year of ownership and still worked! XD I live in canada and the car was always outside. honestly a true to life merical 😅
very helpful detailed tuition video
Absolutely horrible place for an oil filter. I'm looking for a new vehicle and I've learned to look for 2 important things before buying. How easy is it to 1: replace alternator . 2: oil filter replacement. With the winters and amount of salting I can see that not coming loose sooner than later.
This is garbage I tryed using it to get into the Dodge oem BCm and had no luck its interface is all over the place I personally like ThinkDiag it’s so much faster and easier.
great video but why doesnt anyone tell you the bolt sizes
My mechanic just said I need a compressor kit and the CTS censor and approx $1800 to replace both with their expensive hourly labor fee. Should i try this fix first??
Yes - especially if you encounter the same symptoms as I did. At the end of the day it’s only a few dollars.
@YourHomeGarage truth! I'll try this over the weekend to double check before blowing all that money for some a/c lol thank you so much for this!!!
Please keep me posted - thank you.
@@melanytries Did it work?
Had an intermittent problem on a Subaru Forester recently. Was taken to a shop, they recovered the refrigerant/recharged with dye added. Charged $125 and said that it was fixed, but the problem persisted. AC worked fine on startup, but 15 minutes or so down the road, it quit. I got the car, immediately tried a new relay, problem solved. Subaru dealer relay, $30 charge for part, did the labor for free.
Thanks for adding this to the comments - I’m sure it will assist others with the same issue.
Did oil change on a tiguan after that damn plastic plug is leaking.
This was a life saver for me! I'm am a 69 year old lady and like to fix things myself. I had two lights go out in my third brake light and with this video, I was able to fix it perfectly in just a few minutes! Thank you for telling what size torque bit to use....that helped me a bunch as I had it in my set! Now....to fix the antenna that I knocked off with the garage door!
Thank you for the kind words - good luck on your antenna fix!
i can't find one for a 2018 F150
Too much words, I don’t have time for your BS ,dislike 👎
👍THANK SO MUCH BROTHER 👍
I have a 2001 rav 4 And I’m wondering how many rotors do I need to buy and how many brake pads do I need Can you please help
I have a question hopefully you can help me. My AC works and it was really cold with no problems all of a sudden only cold AC blows out of one of the vents. The other three blows regular temperature like from outside. What could that be?
I'd rather have a regular gas cap. The capless door has malfunctioned on my Chevrolet and in order to fix it the dealer wants you to drop the tank and replace the entire filler neck. Really really dumb design.
People ford sucks 😞😔
