Another reason to keep your cooling system in good shape is that some transmission coolers are built into the radiator, if the radiator gets too hot it can crack, and if this happens to the passage with the transmission cooler the coolant will get blown into the transmission creating a strawberry milk shake that will dissolve the clutches in your transmission.

I agree with you on the tire replacement on all wheel drive. It makes absolute sense. I taught my kids with two wheel drive if you're going to replace the tire always do them in pairs. The reason being not to mix tread patterns on a single axle. I don't even like mixing tread patterns on the entire car. If every tire has the same stopping power and traction you're less likely to have control problems in adverse conditions such as rain high temperatures snow and Etc. Always do them in pairs on the same axle.

I doubt it .. I honestly think I'll push my transmission to 300,000 no problems ... as a matter of fact I'ma buy my nissan transmission oil from the dealership and take it to my local mechanic to do a flush tomorrow.

A bad crank sensor could also prevent ur car from starting. It was kicking over but it wasn't starting... Just had one put in. Back to norm now. Got an '02 Yukon Denali with a 6.0 in it. Still runs great Scotty

I've posted before, I have an '86 Toyota Corolla with 557,000 miles on it, never changed the fluid. It still looks clear and clean, rarely needs any added and every test I can find to test the transmission it passes with flying colors. To be honest at this point I don't know if I should ever try changing it, I don't drive it that much and the miles are easy ones. The engine is the original too, I use conventional oil changed 4x/year, avg miles/year are about 4000.

he only mentions Toyota when he has to give an excellent example of THE best automobile... I have had 2 now. Amazing vehicles!

Great video Scotty! Good explanation on how things are interrelated. Most people don't have a real good idea of how those things work-even before everything went electronic.

[@JonnyDIY]

Listening to Scottys advice should always be "Automatic" hardy har har 👍

[@STARDRIVE]

At least read the ¨manual¨ of your car.

[@Digital_Photog1995]

Great advise!! Modern transmissions require OEM fluid. I don’t care what aftermarket manufacturers advertise, OEM only. Period.

There are some exceptions to replacing 4 tires on AWD vehicles. For example, you can replace one tire, if it is an exact match for size, speed rating, load index, manufacturer, etc. and doesn’t have more than 1” difference in the overall circumference. Some vehicle manufacturers are stricter and some are more lenient.

[@johngregg9187]

Scotty thought I would comment on your video! I drive f250 out of nowhere transmission lost over drive and reverse went out hard shifting, i drained trans, torque converter, and trans-cooler. New filter new fluid ( it needed it) no difference not even a little!!!!! Really upset was about to pull my transmission it's 4x4 which really stinks, (a new one is about 4500.00) but I talked to a real transmission guy( an honest one) and he said some of my electronics are grounded thru my O2 sensors and they were bad along with my battery and mass air flow sensor. Changed all that on a Sunday transmission shifts and drives like a new. So I changed my rear differential and my transfer case and front differential a little love goes a long, and the transmission problem reminded of that. Like your videos kept it up. Sir

[@ayser5]

A valuable lesson to learn Thank you

[@thegatekeeper715]

Best video in quite some time, thanks Scotty.

[@Taocat1]

Scotty, that had to be the best video I've ever seen you do, and I've watched a lot of yours. Very informative. I'd like to see a series like this on almost every vehicle ie. my 1500 Silverado...their problems, how to try to keep them from breaking down. What to do for them for preventive maintenance beyond the usual.

[@paulc3550]

This is very helpful since I have nothing but older vehicles. Saves me a Lot of money.

[@ohioplayer-bl9em]

When our Cayennes battery started to lose a cell it would start up fine but the check AWD system light would be on, it would shift crappy, and ran rough. After a quick drive and restart it would be fine with no lights. Next day it would happen again. I changed the battery which is under the front seat.. and its been great sense. No lights and runs smoothly. He is absolutely correct about newer cars having much different symptoms of a bad battery than older ones. The good news is they give you a bit more warning because of the drivability issues.
