[@jpdasilva4474]

Thank you so much for making videos in English we all understand is not easy for you but we really appreciate the effort and thank you for your KZbin channel!!!!!

[@maker000]

Seriously, super appreciated!

[@stewartdoneafart2795]

Same with me, Thanks so much for the english.

[@Veritas_mens]

Yes, Thank you very much. This is one of the best Subaru channels on KZbin.

[@utahmike3855]

Attention to detail is strong indication of superior intelligence ... thank you for sharing your work.

[@viperv26]

This!

[@devilononeshoulder]

i expected a mop and bucket, but he finessed us with a special floor cleaner, this workshop would be a dream to work in!

[@martinsmith8417]

You guys really epitomise that idea of German efficiency with all the correct tools to lock the shafts/ Cam's in their correct positions while you release highly torqued nute on rotating shafts, your english is great too, thanks for your obvious efforts to accommodate non german speakers.

[@yuchilin301]

This is the most professional and clean car studio I have ever seen! Your the best 👍

[@bernardsanke4876]

Compared to British bronze-age dungeons :)

[@mickleblade]

it's cleaner than my kitchen!

[@PropanePete]

I was a mechanic many decades ago and really enjoy these videos, immaculate workshop..... love the little doggies...

[@100catfishing7]

Great video! Thanks for speaking English,very much appreciated! As a former mechanic I enjoy watching such a professional at work.

[@chris746568462]

You can hear the oil get around the engine a few seconds after it starts. The tapping stops. Nice job 👍

[@justinsmith2343]

All I have to say is the guy brought it to the RIGHT GUY TO FIX THE ISSUE! Love the videos man ! Much love from the USA

[@BabaG]

Oh I so wish there were people like you here in NYC, have a clean garage, have knowledge and are willing to share it. I don't own a Subaru, I don't a car even, but I love your work and the attention to detail and how you meticulously go about doing your work. Thank you for sharing.

[@hubertmantz1516]

What a hell of a Subie mechanic you are👍🏽 I’m astounded by your expertise and knowledge of the workings of these cars👍🏽 your workshop is an absolute credit to you. Magnificent! What a joy it must be to work in.My congratulations 👏🏼 on how organised and clean it is. Thanks so very much for these marvellous videos. Aufwiedersehne ✌🏼

[@TruenoIMO]

Awesome video! Your English is doing very well, keep it up 👍

[@SubiPerformance]

thank you i still working on that !

[@DooMMasteR]

@@SubiPerformance gotta get routine in it :-) watch more Netflix in English, it helps a lot ;-) keep 'em coming

[@TechnikMeister2]

I nice to see a workshop that's clean and really well equipped and where the tools are respected and well maintained. You normally don't see this level of cleanliness except in a well funded race team. You are a credit to the industry.

[@elbandidosti]

Anybody who keeps his shop so clean has earned my trust to work on my car. Great Vid!

[@gsmecanica]

Yes pls more real life workshop videos! Thanks for the quality of the content, is amazing! Cheers from Buenos Aires!

[@popeyeman69]

Another great video Andi. You are a master technician and it's a pleasure to watch you work sir!

[@NGTR35]

Always a pleasure to see your work. Thank you for your commitment to speak English. Best regards from Portugal

[@MrWarwick15]

Just recently discovered your channel and loving it! I'm not a Scooby fan but love the technical side of your videos! Your English is just great too! I'm English but live in France and so appreciate just how hard it is to learn a second language especially when it comes to technical vocabulary! I'm an engineer by the way. Best wishes and good luck for the future. Rich.

[@michaelheinrich44]

I'm german and i think english is quite easy. I had french at school too and its way harder to learn!

[@rsage_]

That was extremely lucky that the owner of the car didn't run it too long without oil. It would have been heartbreaking to see such an amazingly built engine grenade because of that failed component.

[@BadassGent]

Some luck but I think also a good owner who cares about his car and pays attention

[@doctorrobert60]

Love watching Dr. Subi diagnose and treat the Subaru patients! Nice your kids sit and watch you work from the couch!

[@williamhall2386]

Aside from again saying 'you're videos are great' I also want to say that I think it speaks volumes for your professionalism and proper workmanship that you get so much positive attention (especially on the internet, as it is a vile place) even with having these engine problems. A lot of people would be quick to judge, but I can't find a single negative comment. THAT says something... Keep up the great work guys.

[@iraira7467]

So glad engine was saved. Smart owner by shutting off no oil pressure. Love how calm and smooth shop is during your work and filming!

[@user-eu1om4mk7z]

I love that you put your puppy in every video! Such a cutie, just waddling around.

[@danielolson7160]

Normally shop dogs are to vicious or dirty to want to be near. But you have a wonderful environment for your pals.

Dude you're so legit I love how clean the facility is

[@Doc__Vegapunk]

Your channel is a wealth of information for all things Subaru. I really enjoy your videos, German or English!

[@NitroGuyJH]

I want a royal blue Subaru WRX STi so damn bad. It’s been my favorite car since childhood. I love the look of it, love the performance of the boxer 4, love the way the interior is designed, love the reliability, and just love everything about it. It’s one bad ass car!

[@ДелатьБудуСам]

[@dil6969]

Such a nice looking shop. Great work quickly diagnosing the issue, and good on the customer noticing the problem and getting it fixed right away.

[@alptek2474]

you are a good mechanic, and you work very clearly. your workshop clear than any hospital room.

[@colinblankenship2401]

Thank you for sharing it English it makes it easier to appreciate the expert work that you do.

[@MinhDangcraft]

Never knew casted pumps exerted these issues. 2JZ motors have this interesting tolerance issue on some motors too. Easiest way to prevent this is to port the opening a bit and knock that sharp brow on the inside down. Polishing the regulator piston might help too but you decrease idle pressure a bit. Good video!

[@MinhDangcraft]

Update for you lads: I usually ream the pump housing with a 16mm carbide reamer, polish the pump piston, then I lap the 45 degree piston face into the pump, no issues!

[@BWGPEI]

Indeed things do happen - treasure that customer who thinks and acts quickly. Much appreciate your good work and your improving English - long may you have good customers!

[@lautaroezequielmolina9691]

Absolutly amasing place and work congrats from argentina... wait for more videos like this👍👍👍👍

[@fila1445]

engine coolant is a sneeky little bastard, always hiding somewhere just to spill when you don't expect it :P

[@m3ch674]

Yep, and it’s usually down the sleeve 🤣

[@BushCampingTools]

Your workshop is like a laboratory! Fantastic.

[@Natedoc808]

Glad to see my car isn’t the only one that drains coolant forever! And that even you are a mortal mechanic who has to deal with the same shit I go through when wrenching

[@georgescott1180]

Inadequate clearance leading to sticking piston. Crazy for a factory to let that happen since it can cost the customer their engine. You do excellent work. It i a pleasure to watch your videos.

[@marothapasha2667]

I laughed my butt off when that coolant tried to get you. That face you made was priceless because I've made that same face so many times. 😂 love your videos bro, you definitely set the standard for shops all around!

[@shigekazusato335]

これ程多方面から詳細に、丁寧に、動画をアップしてくれました。また他の人の意見を聴くチャンネル！！！素晴らしいと思います！！！！いいですね！

[@jamesmedina2062]

I like you man. You a really cool guy. I wish I could be your friend and help out. Thanks for posting these videos. I don’t have a Subaru but my friend does and I find it interesting. When I saw this engine idle, the motor does not shake all around like my Honda Civic does. It was idling very smooth. Good work. These motors sound great. The sensations are good in drivers seat.

[@slightlymodded1]

greetings from US from a fellow subie tech. Love to see the technical guys on here as well. You have my sub

Bravo Andi! So professional and very knowledgeable in your craft. Love the content,

[@andrewb2476]

Awesome and technical video. Your very knowledged and skilled mechanic. Many people myself included would love to work in facilities like that.

[@Bassmunchkin1]

I'm really happy for you that everything is on video to prove to the customer that it was a faulty product and not your brilliant skills that caused issues.

Props! For being organized and clean kinda like my dream garage.

[@Gunma_garage]

Glorious shop, glad the customer noticed psi. These engines are so fun, we must learn to keep them happy by maintaining them.. "No boost gauge, oil psi then temp" 👍🤣🙏

[@240zcarbri]

That was well said earlier - this is not a car shop, it's a car STUDIO! Well done Sir.

[@02zo6corvette]

Excellent save.. We all have the SHIT HAPPENS moments. I have see several LS-1 and LS-6 engine suffer from the exact same problem. Usually is some sort of debris in the by-pass valve but,,, exact same results.

[@TheR4MP]

Echt erstaunlich wie gut man doch immer wieder an viele Dinge rankommt! Da macht Schrauben Spaß!

[@petrmiskerik]

Awesome. Just awesome to watch. And head up, everyone make misstakes. No exception. Thx Andy !

[@dejotachamo]

in my opinion, this are the best kind of videos! keep it up sir!

[@takumifan3788]

Same 11mm oil pump. No pressure gauge. Lost pressure because one of the screws at the back got loose. Racing with evo at the time. Equals rod knock. Now always loctite everything!!

[@brokenwrench4309]

Love your videos! Thanks for the English ones and even the ones you don’t talk much. Never new I could learn so much by just watching what your doing it’s relaxing for me. By the way love your shop! Would love to get one at my location

[@pimpsquad1542]

Thats why i got oil pressure gauge on my GC STi the 1st one))Own subaru Gauge take on 0.15Bar,seems if u watch the burning lamp on ur dash looks likes ur EJ is dead))or TUK-TUK-TUK ))) P.S I took 11 mm oil pump when rebuild - everything is good

[@porronudo]

you make everything look so easy piece of cake for you thank for your videos Thank for keep posting videos

[@soundsystem5686]

Omg i love your workshop

[@RussellBooth1977]

That's the first thing I checked when I had noisy hydraulic lifters in my Chevrolet LS1 engine - oil pressure. That was to confirm that the oil pump,the crankshaft & camshaft bearings were still good which they were, all I did is threw in a new set of lifters & a new timing chain kit then the engine was all sweet after that,at about 342,500 kilometres, the engine is performing better than it did at 183,000 kilometres when I first bought the car a bit over 10 years ago. My brother had to get my cousins husband whose a Subaru mechanic to get the cylinder heads rebuilt in his 2000 model Forester which runs the EJ20 engine in it,he ran it in liquefied propane gas & never adjusted the valve lash on it,he lost compression on a cylinder, the valves & seats also got burned out. So for a few thousand $$$s he got the cylinder heads rebuilt with new valves, seats & springs fitted,my cousins partner went through the rest of the engine & resealed it as well as replacing the clutch in it. He also advised him to only run it on unleaded fuel but he still runs it on the gas !

[@khalidalhadidi6402]

Really great work, i safferd alot from oil pump and the pcv valve, really great vlog keep it up.

Brilliant, very good customer care, and a very sensible owner. Strange problem.

[@Baard2000]

Looking at the hammering getting the little piston out......it looks to me it was stuck from the beginning...... Always with high perf parts: check and re-check EVERYTHING....

Scissors? To open a small parts bag? I don't know why I'd expect anything else in a shop this clean. Well done.

[@ericnickel3280]

Was worried for the first couple of seconds. Heard what I guess was a lifter not pumped up yet. Thank God ticking went away.

[@tam1381]

He was not trying to start the car. He was making sure oil was in the pump and primed before starting.

[@aagoge]

@@tam1381 can you please explain how to do It that way afer oil replacement?

[@tam1381]

@@aagoge Hi you disconnect the ignition so the car does not start BUT the engine is turning over a pumping the oil into the oil ways and lubricating all parts before it starts. It's the kind of thing you would do if you were starting a car that had been lying for a long time.

[@aagoge]

@@tam1381 thanks a lot, have read that is the proper way to do it every oil change due to horizontal pistons friction because gravity.

Good save!, but also such a clean shop.

[@Leha__777]

Wow never heard subie engine running so smooth

[@EJ257IHI]

The oil pickup tube is one thing, Subaru doesn't make them really strong and they tend to crack. Replaced mine on the 2004 STi back in the days.

[@CreativeCadaver13]

I appreciate you making the effort to relate your accounts in English. Where is the ideal place to put oil temperature and pressure sensors? At filter with sandwich plate, or elsewhere? Great dogs! Great coffee machine! Great engines! Trifecta!

Estimado ANDY; gracias por el buen video y la magistral clase. Un abrazo de José Antonio Gálvez Galán desde España.

[@rusetsky92]

отличное наглядное видео. еще есть проблема откручивающихся болтов внутри маслонасоса.

[@Ruslan_Subarist]

Проблема легко решаема. Везде где крестовые болтики вкручены в алюминий, со временем происходит реакция между этими металлами. В 90% случаев сорвать эти болтики помогает ударно-поворотная отвёртка. Ей же можно эти болтики вкрутить обратно, если нет динамометрического ключа например. Главное отметить их порядок и положение перед откручиванием. Болтики крышки маслонасоса обязательно нужно вкручивать на анаэробный фиксатор резьбы, я использую синий от американского бренда Permatex. Вот мой отчёт о ребилде б.у контрактного маслонасоса: www.drive2.ru/l/507867720478360566/

[@brunopinhoputo5344]

The same thing happened to me... With a little polishing in the chamber the piston did not stuck nevermore..

[@Leha__777]

Yep thought he will polish it too, make more gap etc

[@gothicpagan.666]

Thats one very nice work shop. I'm not a rice burner guy but sub'de any way. One bit oo advice, get a machining vice, even for a piller drill. One day it might save an accident

[@wayneclement7201]

Is the piston easy to remove from new oil pumps?Might be worth a measure with a micrometer, then polish with fine wet/dry before installation for some peace of mind

[@BramBiesiekierski]

Many subaru guys will do this before assembling an engine, as the sticking relief valve is a well known concern.

[@gazza116]

after 50 odd years working on engines if you had an oil pump problem you checked the pump before washing it,washing the pump can make a stuck relief free up for example

[@VELES22RUS]

😃😃😃sti прекрасна👍👍👍👍👍

[@Bloodline2009]

Did you replace the oil pump with the after market version with more piston clearance? Or a new stock Subaru oil pump? You said new, so I wasn't sure which one you did. Also, is there a specific scenario in which the stock Subaru oil pump fails? Example, too much boost, boost leaks, aggressive timing or over heating? Really love your videos, keep up the great work.
