This guy is a master technician!

[@neilmurphy845]

Yes he's a real mechanic and so is LM auto repair

[@ahmadhassounmusic6053]

I think he more like Magician

[@thamiralqurashi8604]

and excellent teacher

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks😁

[@chappy4944]

Fantastic Dan

[@vviiper]

Wish you uploaded more frequently DiagnoseDan, your videos a 10/10

[@Diagnosedan]

I wish i could👍

[@unkownKalliii]

I think this 20 Minute Video is about 3-4hours of work 🙃 and brings no money 😅

[@SerbanCMusca-ut8ny]

@@unkownKalliii It's true this chan is criminally underrated! I mean not so many subs when you see the quality of the content and the work that must go into creating said content. I hope Dan will get to 1M subs soon!

[@joshuawells146]

I watch many of Dans friends “in the industry” and I think everyone of them would themselves agree Dan is second to none in the extra effort he puts into every video to deliver the point. This man could save a few hours being a little lazy and still have a great video. Hope even casual observers can appreciate the extra mile I see Dan goes through. Absolutely a master technician.... I would though add the adjective elite. Dan is an Elite master technician. 😂🤷‍♂️ Dan - thank you for being a content creator. ❤️

[@ronnierobinson1502]

I agree

[@Diagnosedan]

I do put alot of effort into the video's to make them as clear to understand as possible. Thanks for the great comment!

[@joshuawells146]

DiagnoseDan don’t be afraid to monetize however you can. You can make a s-k- style “save a million by adding this to your gas” but I’d watch a video of you boiling water like man I am about to learn something I did not know. 😂 It’s an exaggeration but only slightly. You should be at 10M subs but on your journey don’t fear finding the balance between effort/end result.

[@josesalazar6620]

I already said that Dan is the number 1 channel for someone to really learn about how things work in a car. One more time thank you so much for all your effort Dan. Greetings from the north of Portugal 👍

[@SouthMainAuto]

I agree 💯! He is the best on KZbin on my opinion!!

[@zach914v8]

Hands down the best diagnostic tech on KZbin, bar none!!!!!

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you very much 👍

[@richardbeckwith4545]

So many skills and talents ‘rolled up’ in to one guy, natural diagnostic, filming and teaching skills, plus a superb sense of humour, Dan you’re a one of a kind!

[@gs7865]

That was the best explanation of direct injection fuel delivery I've seen.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks😁

[@Diagnosedan]

Wow thanks David😁👍👍👍👍

[@jamesjames3525]

No wonder there are so many average mechanics out there. Such complicated systems, and so much specialty knowledge needed. YOU HAVE TO HAVE the diagnostic tools, and know how to use them to your advantage. Well done Dan.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks!!!

[@narendrakumarmewada5767]

Almost no one but you can have such a good method of teaching

My pleasure 😀

[@adesolasorunke4531]

We love DiagnoseDan, love from Nigeria ❤️

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks!!

[@GreatYTShark]

I just want to say your videos are absolutely fantastic Dan. I learn so much with your expert knowledge, thorough explanations and your attention to detail. I have reasonable mechanical & electrical knowledge but modern vehicles are a beast of their own. But after watching all your videos I have picked up so many tips in each one and now I am confident to whip out my scan tool and understand the numbers in a modern vehicle. I just wish you released them more often but with the level of detail you go into, I understand how time consuming to film that would be. Anyway thank you Dan, we all really appreciate the work you do!

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you very much for your fantastic comment!!

[@paulscreech128]

There's a lot to be said for carburetors, cars are far too complicated now. Well done for sorting it.

[@ravivarman5618]

Fascinating to watch your videos Dan. I wish we got someone like you here in the UK. Most of them here are not mechanics. They are trial and error, fitters ...

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks for the great comment 👍

[@MrYewheng]

Same goes to Singapore too.. We hope that there is many of such diagnosedan mechanics, but seems like majority are trial and error. Yeah so diagnosedan is such a gem.

[@ravivarman5618]

Dan, Please help me. my son is got a vw polo 2010 ... 1.4 . AC stopped working. where do i start., do i need to change the AC compressor?

[@hpelisr]

Yes I love your videos, must have info, and understanding of how modern cars work. well done.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you 😀

[@Zeem4]

It's amazing how clearly you explain everything, and in a second language too! I've been learning Dutch for the last 10 years, but I wouldn't be able to describe the work I've been doing to my Renault to bring it back to roadworthy condition. I think I ought to try learning some technical vocabulary.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks for the great comment

[@roxanneabbott8424]

What an excellent video Dan!!! Thank you, I love the way you teach while you take things apart!

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you Roxanne!!

[@dyersgarage2784]

I really enjoy your vids ,the humour, and the diag techniques. I have taken so much from your instruction, thank you for all the info you provide.

[@dyankopetkov9056]

Awesome skills, great job! I believe VW/Audi have the same issues with those pumps - as in one of your videos.

[@Diagnosedan]

You are right👍👍

[@geertvandenelsen6585]

Hi Danny, Great video again! Hope you, your family and friends are doing fine in these strange times! Really good design of Opel: when the pump is leaking it doesn’t mingle with the engine oil and all the bad results of that fact. As we experienced with the high pressure fuel pumps of VW. Keep up the good work and all the best Kind regards; Geert

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks Geert and Stay Safe 💪

[@nscaleallisonvilleindustri9933]

Dan, I have been binge watching your channel since I had surgery on the 6/22 on my right shoulder rotator cuff and love your channel. I was a auto tech here in the states from 1986 to 2000 and then went into fire truck repair business 2000 to present. A lot of your diagnostic techniques can also be applied to this repair industry also since a lot of these trucks are multiplexed. Although I am a shop foreman now with 8 techs in the shop I still get to diagnose complex problems with the techs on occasion. Again love your channel and look forward to more videos. Keep up the great work.

[@Diagnosedan]

I hope you'll fully recover! Thanks for watching my video's its really appriciated. My son a volunteer firefighter, he loves American firetrucks!

[@sambitar8448]

DAN, GRAPHED DESIRED FUEL PRESSURE VS ACTUAL FUEL PRESSURE AND I LOVE HOW YOU SUPPORTED YOUR LOGIC WITH TAKING HIGH FUEL PUMP APART AND SHOWED THE DEFECTIVE DIAPHRAGM. THANKS. YOU PUT IT IN PRESENTATION AND PRACTICAL PROOF. YOU ARE BLESSED.

Dan, hi from Russia. You are master of diagnostic. You are doing a great job. Thanks.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you very much 😀

[@dertypda7908]

Your videos are crazy valuable. In these times, where "mechanics" just change parts on a hunch, it's really beautiful to watch someone do real work. Your explanations are so thorough, that your videos will be used in schools (maybe already are). Of course you deserve more views, but i'm guessing you're doing it, in part, for the "public education" aspect. I'm usually not commenting on videos on YT, just wanted to say THANK YOU!

i only came across your videos yesterday evening but have watched quite a few now cant stop watching . nice to see a mechanic not afraid to get their hands dirty and not wear rubber gloves your videos should be mandatory watching for any apprentice mechanic you are not only a mechanic you are an electrician a producer a host a editor a teacher and it would not surprise at all if you were playing all of the instruments in the music on your videos

GREAT video Dan. I thought we were done when you made the call on the pump. But, of course, I was wrong. Nice work on the tear down, explanation, and theory.

[@kenrickblak]

I swear u r the best I've seen so far on the net sir Diagnosedan....

[@Stevie_B_0828]

Another educational, yet entertaining post, my friend. 👍👍 I like that even tho you could've popped a new pump in an cleared the code, you showed us why/how the pump failed and registered the code. I'm really enjoying learning about the inner workings of these parts, what they do, and how they fail. I have to tell ya, I've gained a whole new respect for my vehicle. Ur doing a great job, looking forward to seeing what's next. 😎

[@tunintunin3417]

I learn something each time i watch your videos. Thank you.

You absolutely the most dynamic mechanic here. It is obvious you are explaining every last detail. I bet in a real situation you guess the problem instantaneously. For a dummy, like me, you are a saviour.

[@cornwasher]

Enjoyed watching the disassembly of the fuel pump and finding the problem. Good fix.

[@Diagnosedan]

Thank you!!!

[@myplace1640]

As usual, you rock Dan! I like the way you always verify the fix. I’m no pro, but I love a challenge. Because of you I now know how to use a n oscilloscope, pretty much anyway. I just work on friends and neighbors cars. Often after they had it “fixed” by the “ pro’s”. They for some reason think because they had a shop do it, that they know what their doing. I signed up for Electude as well. I’m finding in my area anyway, San Antonio Texas, that most shops here anyway are just parts changers. They don’t verify the problem. I’ve even spoken with a couple that changed the wrong parts, again and again. All the while the customer just has to keep paying for the original problem. I have encountered many that think you just read the code and change that part. Even worked on a Chevy Trailblazer with 23 faults, and the only part needed was the vent canister. Everything else was visual inspection and reading all the info to narrow the issues. Fixed quite a few so far and have never guessed what’s wrong. Never told anyone they needed a part that I didn’t confirm. All the sudden after about 17 vehicles I’m getting calls from strangers because of word of mouth. I admit I’m not as quick as you, sometimes I even use KZbin to help find the part if I don’t have the documentation. Try to give people a little break if they are in a spot. That may mean working without a wiring diagram on simpler issues. Been using All Data for wiring. Not perfect I’m finding but gets me close. I’m retired but not dead and I’m finding I would rather repair a difficult issue than a simple one. Can’t thank You enough my friend! I was in charge of maintenance for a large printing company with 50 million in modern equipment. With all that experience I’ve found a car electronic system is as complicated an any industrial computerized super machine. Only getting better. Because of people like you. You just don’t give up and guess. Plus you take the time to explain the system you are working on. Huge plus there Dan. Thanks again!

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks for taking the time to leave this awsome comment. Electude is awsome you won't regret it.

[@victoryfirst2878]

Well done Dan !! Working on a car that is somewhat reputable for the owner is a sense of pride. I fixed one a month ago and can tell you the owner was very disappointed with the car. According to what he said, the car has been in the shop way to often. Stated that will be his last car type. I liked doing the job because of the easy access to the pump. Have not seen the car since the repair. Hopefully no news is good news. Peace and out. VF

[@Diagnosedan]

Thanks for sharing your story VF
