I wish that was the only noise my front end was making

[@jtbatista]

This was so satisfying seeing being fixed. Having these issues on my front end of a dodge challenger srt8, and it's hard to get parts to be delivered on time and speedily. Still waiting for my OEM parts to get here and I am on a waiting list. Sigh*** let's see how badly things get with these UAW strikes.

[@OshMax]

I was definitely having the same issue with my van, good showcase and breakdown, thank you!

[@EdwardM919]

Thank you for all the videos you guys do, its really helped me a lot work on my own vehicles.

[@fredmartine674]

My car has creaking noises, I was thinking it was from the worn struts..

I changed all my front suspension parts and now I have squeaking LOL. All my new ball joints look good and I tightened the parts with the jack lifting the suspension to ride height so I'm not sure what's going on :/

[@TheStranger5250]

I’m trying to narrow down creaking on one side when I’m coming to a stop and letting go of the brake. Seems it’s that shift of weight in the front. Otherwise it doesn’t make the noise. Also when it’s colder, like below 40 degrees out, it doesn’t really do it. Weird.

I watched it in Spanish for some reason pero muy buen video…. Claro, conciso y preciso

[@Limbotron]

Thank you for video. Now I know this isn't a DIY at home job.

[@eamonnmckeown6770]

That's half the Crown Vics in America. lol.

[@RayGun-FoosballProductions]

Still heard the squeak so what’s up. Front sway-bar bushings?

[@katie17610]

cool camera placement

[@marsoelflaco5722]

I had a ball joint/U joint issue, right front wheel on my Wrangler. Squeaking and slight thumping sound during slow speed turns. The joints were replaced and well greased. No more noise, but residual grease in the wheel well and on the inner side wall of the tire.😊

[@brad2548]

Excellent

[@mp3games081]

What does it mean if your car makes noises when you turn you wheels alot to the left

[@brandoncramer9012]

@A1auto I have my whole front end rebuilt and it moans and groans all the time. The guy who fixed it said its normal. What should I do?

[@iownthebankthatownsyourhouse]

all the videos make what brand of tool you use not matter.

[@CarlosRodriguez-gz4po]

I was given a Tahoe that has a leaky power steering pump and the fluid ate all the rubber bushings and seal on driver’s side 🤦🏽‍♂️

[@johns1191]

Question, have Yukon 2009 does not misfire in the rain, misfires on regular days no rain?

[@fswatyahoocom]

Tough job

[@alejandromontes8411]

My Toyota Avalon got a vibration a lot like if it’s Gina break down in front suspension whe down a 5 grades Hill what could be wrong?

[@1AAuto]

+Alejandro Montes We wouldn't be able to diagnose an issue like that here, you may want to have a local mechanic take a look at it. Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c

[@machineman6498]

👍

[@alexvieira7945]

Why every car you work on is so old and rusted? Just wondering 😅

[@ketanamin6677]

One should replace part in original body like rubber bushes there was no repair it’s called replacement, Just time pass unnecessary labor show.
