2006-2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara V6 60,000 Mile Service - Part 2

[@chrislanglois3598]

Been driving my Suzuki for 10 years. It's been pretty reliable even with me neglecting routine maintenance

[@kalmirza2564]

Thank you for this. I didn't think of taking the clips off of the spark plug igniter and this is the best way to do the job.

[@redonKiLaus]

Glad the video helped, and thanks for watching!

[@paullorenz6457]

Very thorough. Where is the PCV valve?

[@ScottyfromCO]

Thank you for posting this! Very helpful and informative

[@redonKiLaus]

Thank you for watching!

[@jenessie385]

would be nice to see all the hose diagrams and cylinder count mechanics mix things up have to fix all this myself now

[@wick1952]

Can you please do a video of how to replace oil cover gasket of 2008 Suzuki grand Vitara V6. Thank you.

[@redonKiLaus]

If I still had it and had the issue I would, this was totaled years ago. Thanks for watching!

[@dragan3290]

I was told that engine has 2 kinfs of spark plugs, im hoping my neighbors car has wrong plugs ? She has had the car at the mechanics so many times and now she wants me to work on it and fix im not a qualified mechanic! My brother taught me everything and a lot of learning by doing! By any chance would you have a link for electrcal specs fsm manual download? Just subbed as now i need info on your engine ! Btw im glad you explain everything properly 😊cheers from Australia

[@beautyangel1045]

Hi, Thank you for the vidéo. How to know the position of the specific cylinder on the engine ? I would like to know which one is cylinder number 2

[@redonKiLaus]

I don't unfortunately, the service manual should list that however. Thanks for watching!

[@elizabethwoods8883]

Hi RedonKilaus did you ever change fuel injector on your GV, is there any video

[@redonKiLaus]

I did not, and it's been totalled for years now. Thanks for watching!

[@elyhelton777]

muito bom seu canal , preciso aprender sobre o carro ,aqui a loja SUZUKI cobra caro demais pra realizar as manutenções básicas do carro , excelente carro , mas a MARCA SUZUKI fica pequena cada dia com tanta falta de honestidade .

[@syeedahmed5331]

Great one! thanks.

[@redonKiLaus]

[@ttocsmij]

I think you may mean 2007-2009 (i.e., Chevy). The 2006 models were still Suzuki. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzuki_XL-7 Also, for 1998-2006 models, the Suzuki Service Manual, Volume 2 (for models SQ416/SQ420/SQ625), calls for torquing the spark plugs to 25 N•m (2.5 kg-m, 18.0 ft-lb). No idea what Chevy specs for their engine.

[@redonKiLaus]

This video is for the Grand Vitara, not the XL7. From 06-08, the V6 GV was built by Suzuki and used the Suzuki H27A engine, but 09+ V6 models did use a GM-derived engine. The final generation of XL7 that was sold in the US (that you are talking about) was indeed quite heavily GM, and was based on their Theta SUV/crossover platform. Sorry for any confusion, but thanks for watching!

[@terryakamadcat]

Hey I have the same jeep but I have a problem,my coolant goes into the overflow but it wont go back into the radiator it self I have to manually throw it back over,what can be the problem?

[@84montecarlonazi]

So this 2.7 is in my wife's grand Vitara 90000 on it does it need coil packs and plugs by now gets like 16 mpg so it's down from ware it should be

[@brianbrooks1909]

I love how he seems to have to special order everything and i have no problem finding any of this stuff. Lol i live in a small town winth 8 k people

[@redonKiLaus]

Aftermarket parts are easy - OEM ones are not, and that's all I use on my vehicles. Thanks for watching!

[@JoesGoldenGarage]

You say your GV was totaled Did you get any after photos? If so we would like a video. Were you guys injured? Very curious. That was the cleanest GV I have ever seen. Your impeccable maintenance shows,

[@redonKiLaus]

+joegolden481 I have tons of after photos that I used for insurance purposes, but I never took any video after the fact, as it was in a salvage yard and I just wanted to snap pictures and get my belongings out of the truck. I do have one photo showing most of the accident on my Instagram account at instagram.com/mc1337sauce. Nobody was seriously injured, mostly some broken toes and lots of bruises. The truck definitely did its job in protecting the occupants. Thank you for the complements, I take care of all of my vehicles the same way I did the GV. It's too bad it got wrecked, I was planning on importing some more JDM parts for it, too. Thanks for watching!

[@harkev47]

With this same model, I have a P0 420 emission problem which strongly indicates towards the catalytic converter. Is there any it can be fixed without removing the converter? There is an inlet on to top of the converter for some reason. Any ideas? Thanks.

[@redonKiLaus]

Nope, if you have a problem with your cat(s) then it (or they) need to be replaced. Could be a sensor issue as well, but would need further diagnosis. Thanks for watching!

[@coreymills1520]

That's an excellent vehicle I've had mine for quite some time now. Just curious what type of transmission is in there is that a Toyota transmission or what

[@redonKiLaus]

Not sure, if I remember correctly, it was Suzuki designed through 2008. Thanks for watching!

[@dragan3290]

I mentioned earlier i have to repair the suzuki vitara from neighbors. The car is hesitating badly under load . I was gonna check all electricals and change the plugs . Can wrong plugs cause it to run like a dog as i had this happen to my wife's car ? Just trying to fix the car as no one wants to work on it ( mechanics ) lady has been turned down quite a few times now i gotta do it. Any reply appreciated? Need help with where to start testing to fix this engine!

[@redonKiLaus]

The plugs can absolutely make the vehicle run very poorly, but generally you will see a check engine light for misfires if it is plug-related. It could also be a bad coil or wire if it is spark related. The reason mechanics don't want to work on Suzuki vehicles (at least in the US where I live) is because Suzuki doesn't supply many of the spares for these vehicles anymore - no parts, no work. If there is a check engine light, using a scan tool to pull codes would be where I would start. Hopefully that helps point you in the right direction!

[@pamtreo72]

i have a quest as u touch on the transmission fluid very shortly, i have a 06 that i got of a very close family friend and the owner has passed but she was always on the up and up with doing all the maintenance and since i got it it hit the 150k marker and i did read the manual and i know there is suposto be alot of stuff checked and i had my mechanic check right before when he replaced the valve cover gasket and i think everything is all good but in the 3years i have owned the truck i never changed the transmission fluid nore did it seem lowe but the color is changing on it so i want to get it changed. is the mobile the only brand to use and where do i get it from? i have looked around here and no one seems to carry it. would it be ok to take it to a shop or a oil change place to get it changed? thank you for any help

[@169494]

I have the 08 2.7L, Suzuki dealership was out of their transmission fuild, so they told me to use Motomaster ATF Dexron VI, 946ml, and said there's no difference in proformance. Brought 4 bottles from Canadian Tire, the car have a very small transmission at around 3L. Then I went to Mr. Lube with my 4 bottles, and turns out they have the exact same in the shop, and it was also the recommended written on their manual book.

[@pamtreo72]

J J ok ty will have a look around here see if I can find it ty very much for the information

[@bomoreno9542]

I need help puting the belt the altinator on a 2007 Suzuki grand vitara 2.7 is there a video on how to do it if so can you send a link of the video

[@redonKiLaus]

I cover the belt change in my 60,000 mile service video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJ2ZlX95hdCdn6M Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!

[@vikingprepper2948]

THANKS:)

[@redonKiLaus]

Thank you for watching!

[@snfpagp]

I’m planning on buying a 2006 Grand Vitara with 7000k on it any advice on what to looks for ?

[@redonKiLaus]

They're pretty reliable vehicles, you just need to make sure the maintenance has been taken care of on time. One thing that I remember as a common failure item is transfer case seals, so that might be one thing to check aside from normal things that should be looked over on every vehicle. Thanks for watching!

[@littlefun8717]

From where can I order the spark plugs, cabin filter of grand vitara 2007model . I am not finding them in India

[@redonKiLaus]

I generally order my parts from Amazon, but you should be able to find them from local parts retailers if you have them as well. Thanks for watching!

[@kevinkelly6694]

man, my 2007 vitara idles really bad. changed spark plugs, air filter and cleaned throttle body and maf sensor

[@kalmirza2564]

Kevin Kelly mine was idling rough. I changed sparks, oil change and better quality gas, fuel treatment. I also did a fuel injection clean and engine flush from Valvoline a few months earlier so I know they weren't the problem. But it looked like sparks and oil change (using synthetic now) made a massive difference. The cars like a little bullet again.

[@loudharley6926]

check idle air control valve, cheap easy fix.

[@dbeatrawmaniac]

WHERE´S LOCATED THE EGR VALVE??

[@redonKiLaus]

I'm not sure if this vehicle even has one, but if it does, probably behind the engine...look for tubes connecting the intake and exhaust manifolds. Thanks for watching!

[@angelf9800]

Can you use a normal 16 mm spark plug to remove them

[@redonKiLaus]

Yes, I believe 16mm should be fine for this application. Thanks for watching!

Not sure on this one, I'd refer to a service manual or forums. Thanks for watching!

Sorry to he harsh but this video is useless. You just list what you have to do without showing HOW TO DO IT. We can read the maintenance list. It's in several languages as well. ...
