Launch brand scan tools are the best at hunting down misfires. I have an Xtool D7 and a GearWrench BTSmart scan tool. Both are considered to be good bi directional scan tools. These Launch Creader elite tools are better than both my other tools and cheaper. These are a must buy for anyone who does their own work. These are an amazing value if you just work on your car. They also make a model for $200 that does all Ford, GM and Dodge products including all the subsidiary companies such as Jeep or Lincoln or Buick for instance. Best tool for DIY. They also have dedicated brand models and the BMW or Mercedes models also do some coding. 🤯

Does anyone know if you can install this without the microphone/gps/speaker? Im totally fine using wires connection for apple car play

Does your steering wheel control still work?

Thanks for documenting this so professionally. I’m going to try following this in the next few days when parts arrive.

what was the bill?

BCG Great video. My 2012 2.5 mazda 6 isn't making heat. The engine can run and idle all day long and stay right in middle of the gauge, but only my upper radiator hose gets hot, lower one and the heater core hoses stay cold. Thernostat was replaced by mechanic last month. But it didn't fix my no cabin heat issue. So i think i got a bad thermostat installed and need to replaced it? So far - ive confirmed radiator is full of coolant to the cap. No bubbles. Ive squeezed the rubber hoses a bunch. -top hose is hot, bottom hose and heater core hoses are cold. My cabin fan is blowing, but only cold air. Occasionally i do get some heat but rarely Are these the likely symptoms of a thermostat that isn't opening?

1:39:03 I love the idea of wiring it into the factory wiring.

After fiddling around with this unit. If you find you amp is too powerful. Or do not want a backup camera and don't want it to come in when you reverse. Go to settings Select Car settings Go to factory and enter 000000 You will able to adjust your amp and turn off back up camera detection

Where can I buy it and how much

This is by far the best video for doing the pan gasket and pickup tube. My only suggestion is to get an adapter plate. ICT billet has them. That gives you two bolts to hold the oring down, instead of just one bolt. All blocks have a second threaded hole but they don't utilize it from the factory..(Depending on the style pickup you have, there are two different options) Common spot to lose oil pressure. Knocked mine out last night. Since I had an idea of what was ahead thanks to your video, it was smooth sailing.

now, 120 cad for four qt

Awesome video! Thanks for the step by step

Thank you. Helpful video majorly because of the torque specs.

Since you are that into it, wouldn’t you want to clean the carbon off the valves?

So you can’t pull that pcv valve out of the plastic housing?

Would this work on 2013 Ford F150... my stero system looks like the exact same version

best video, but may mention that after market stretchy accessory belt may be smaller than oem making it harder to put on.

This video was sooo helpful. Great amount of detail as you went step by step without missing anything. I had previously changed the heater hose elbows to the Dorman aluminum ones and changed the waterpump. I did it without taking the waterpump off the cover or taking those two long studs with the torx ends. Also saying the bolt size for everything ensured I had all the right tools before I began. Thanks again. 5 stars⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Love the color, brother!

Lower rt bolt will allow you to drain without removing the pan

Muy bueno trabajo gracias por el video 👍👍👍👍👍 lo are en mi colbat

Great video - very informative. I've found that soaking the nuts / bolts with penetrating oil for several hours makes them much easier to get on and off. The back one is always tricky, because as you showed, of its location and interference from hoses and brackets.

Can someone explain why my Tahoe 2004 has trouble staring but when I press the gas pedal and turn the key it starts up

Thank God for folk like you @BlueCollarGarage - inflation and extortionate prices has forced me into the world of DIY car fixes. This video held my hand through this process, worked a treat, and given me the confidence to look at other issues. Thank you brother. God bless.

Hey thanks again my brother love it

Sorry, but if the cabin heating works, does that mean the thermostat, if broken, is stuck open? Or if it stays closed, does the heating still work?

Hi Again, where did you get your EGR from? Do you have a link? Thanks

Fantastic job on this video, I have a late 03 f350 CCSB with a 110k on it that I bought with 6k at 6mo old. Icp was only issue I had but oil cooler temperature delta was getting high. Truck is rusty from Michigan winters so I bought a non running southern 04 and going to go through mine and swap it into the 04. Thanks for posting your story. M only criticism is I cringed at the cleaning of the gasket surfaces with the greased up cam in it. Seems like that would be a magnet for debris to stick to, think I would have put that in after cleaning but otherwise great video!

Hoses going up in finder well they look like they are some what collaps.

i've always hated the metal tab inside those. In the North you need a fuel line most times.

THE BEST VIDEO TO SHOW HOW THIS IS DONE!!!

This is by far the best video i've ever seen you pulled a Mexican move on those Struts great job👍

Just did mine today and I was glad I found your video to show me how. I think the hardest part was getting that 10mm bolt back in that holds the harness and tranny lines at 35:30. I found if you use a 6" extension you can go over the top of the axle bracket and under the frame, its a straight shot right in to the hole. There was no way I was getting my hands up in there to start and tighten that little sucker.

Can i just clean my mass airflow sensor? Mass airflow cleaner?

Had to weed through a couple of crap videos to get to yours. *That* is a comprehensive video. 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just curious how many miles were on the car when you did this? Just curious how long the ball joint lasts

Great video man, thanks for making it.

Thanks for this video , I got what seemed an excessive amount of diesel only to discover there was no fuel filter !

This issue drop the pickup power ?

I have everything unscrewed but I can’t it to break free.

Where did you get the Struts?

Subscribed! Good job man!

good video, just a heads up, not sure if the car is yours or if you noticed but those sway bar link bushings look a little past their prime lol, maybe good idea for the next video

Just wanted to say thanks for the great video. Fixed my 03 ford f150 shift indicator in about 15 minutes with this video! And only $8 for the new part!

once hot, it'll expand so put that in consideration

wow dude that was alot coming out of the fill plug.....it should have been just drippn'. Whoever filled it last time filled it kinda overfilled. Other than that u did a good job.

What would be a good oil and transmission temperature regarding the ford 17-19 ford f250?

Mine are going out, would I need to replace the mounting brackets aswell ? Or do I just need the cushioning

Very detailed and great video! I have a 2000 V10 Excursion and I wanted to put the drilled and slotted rotors on. I’ll check these out on Amazon.

And at 20 seconds it has the factory sound and the speed is not little slower than at 6 minutes and 30 seconds
