Suzuki SX4 Power Steering Flush

[@creativernsk]

единственные видео о ремонте американских sx4 с их особенностями, спасибо тебе большое !

[@robertlee4172]

Suzukis are built like tanks. Mine is 11 years old and purrs like a kitten, whisper quiet. I changed my plugs two days ago and runs fine. Thanks for vid. Gave me some great tips.

ln many parts of the world, a nickname for Suzuki cars is "The Toyota of the 90's" which is a high compliment meaning that Suzuki is now what Toyota used to be in the 90's with their rock solid engine designs that could go practically forever when you do the proper maintenance on them. The J20, J18, J16 engine are also very similar in design to some of the 90's Toyota engine designs so not surprising their potential for outstanding longevity when properly maintained.

[@spooky5338]

Unfortunately, there is the design issue for several replacements a d other things due to space constraints. If the transmission goes out, it will be a major issue in a brand that stopped making cars a decade ago.

[@robertlee4172]

@@spooky5338 Did they? Oh really...someone better call Toyota. Because their collaboration with Suzuki is null. Subaru will need a similar warning, as they've been manufacturing cars with Suzuki for years. As far as "design issues'', what car comes off an assembly line flawless? FYI, Suzuki never '"stopped making cars a decade ago."

[@spooky5338]

@@robertlee4172 Oh, I guess I should have specified that they completely froze sales of cars in the US, and that Subaru barely sells half the parts necessary to repair/replace anything pre-2010, maybe even 2013, which is the final US car year. Also, working on this car is a total chore, accessing the oil filter by hand is a nightmare, you need a tool or to stab it, the majority of work that might be 2 hours of labor is double that on this car, and if the tranny goes out, I have no recourse. Even something like a molded aluminum A/C hose that goes to the condenser is near impossible to get unless I go to a scrapyard, and it would take hours of labor for them to pull it out, unless there's a compatible car with the engine already fully pulled out. So yes, 2013 is when suzuki stopped making cars (at least in the US), and Subaru/Toyota's partnership is pretty useless when some of the critical parts are inaccessible. Idler pulley is a cheap and easy replacement, but this car will not last 200k miles from 150k when I bought it in the current US market. Btw I likely need a new evaporator core, and everything else A/C related to get it blowing cold and even the "OE" replacement Four Seasons compressor I bought didn't fit without an adapter.

@@spooky5338 ''Oh, I guess I should have specified... froze sales of cars in the US'' Quite an oversight. All that other stuff you needlessly drone on about is extraneous nonsense. These aren't the cars you're looking for, move along.

I'm not a car guy but since I bought a used 2010 Suzuki sx4 hatchback last December, I felt inlove with it(lol). please don't take this video down, I'm going to try this spring. thanks.

[@volvosweden]

+quiambaomc Nice car. I will keep the videos. Today will be replacing rear rotors and pads. Will make a video.

[@maxwellwilliamson8228]

Great video...have watched quite a few of your videos now. You always do quality work. Thanks for posting!

[@MasterOfNothing83]

cheers for doing all your sx4 videos. I'm planning on buying one soon and your channel will be very helpful.

[@AndreiMoroz]

Very helpful video. I replaced the fluid on my Suzuki SX4 2007 to fix the whirring sounds appearing while making turns. The issue was resolved once I changed the fluid. Спасибо!

[@kurniawanpw]

same car with mine :)

[@P00P0O]

Did this today. Power steering pump was making a lot of noise, but only in cold weather. Hoping this will fix it so I don't have to replace the pump. Thanks for all the help.

[@creativernsk]

did it helped you situation ?

[@P00P0O]

@@creativernsk I believe so - I'm trying to remember as it was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure I didn't replace my pump after this

[@cupkvp]

your videos are helping me alot thanks becuz recent family member gave me a Suzuki aero and they said everything got done on repairs I notice my transmission oil was dark and lots of stuff needed

[@syn.1538]

[@Sco0bY91]

I did the same as you, but there's a big problem. There's no fluid coming out when I turn the wheel lock to lock (engine is off) or there's just a little bit (like 50 ml after 15 lock to lock turns)? I didn't turn ignition on, should I or it should pump old fluid without ignition anyway?

[@rodgercostello9814]

Great videos volvo thank you sir, i just bought an sx4 4x4 for a little work car as i am destroying my good car , its a 2011 with 50k on it but i aim to do any work to it i can, , so your videos are a great help.

[@DavidBasford]

I just want to see what you need to do to remove the power steering pump I'm not interested in how to flush it or how to change or check

[@safewaycart]

I don't know if using break cleaner on rubber and plastic is safe.

[@snowyplaysvidya3806]

Was just thinking the same thing, wouldnt want to do that on any car, especially a daily.

I replaced power steering pump the idle pulley and the tensioner. The belt is off one grove at the pulley that is on top of the air compressor . Any ideas? Could you take a close photo of the psteering pump to verify if i replaced it in the right position. Thanks

[@volvosweden]

No longer own the SX4

[@ebaksboy]

hi there any idea how to replace the steering pump?

[@jonathancho1362]

Where did you jack up the car at front? Front diff?

[@thebanjoman1963]

Why didn't you just use the turkey baster to get the old fluid out or the reservoir before you unplugged the return line?? Lot less mess to start with!!

[@charleshines6155]

One other fluid often overlooked is the brake fluid. If that has not been changed since new it will look horrible by now.

[@volvosweden]

It wasn't. I have to change it for sure. I did the transmission fluid twice.

[@charleshines6155]

@@volvosweden even changing the transmission fluid twice it will still look bad sometimes.

[@MrFreshchico]

You should do a video on it :)

[@maharshicool79]

Great video. I own Suzuki SX4 2008 sedan. What is the recommended time period to replace the power steering fluid?

[@volvosweden]

+Maharshi Kothamdi There is no particular schedule. I do when the fluid becomes too dark.

[@DannUtv]

Спасибо за видео. Нигде об этом не написано, хотел спросить сколько нужно залить при полной замене? Тоже надо в в сексике поменять

[@marcoherrera1007]

You think you can do a suzuki sx4 brake fluid flush?

[@volvosweden]

+Marco Herrera Yes. Will do in the summer

[@TheRealNormanBates]

Thanks for the videos. I just got a 2008 Suzuki SX4 2 months ago, so these are really helping. Any chance on any video showing how to change an intake manifold gasket? A few days ago, I put in some bad gas and put in Stabil and SeaFoam. The “check engine” light is on, but the car seems to be running normally. This morning, it was running/sputtering a bit in low idle, and the “check engine” light was flashing. I added some more gas and SeaFoam and it runs normally again. When I went to AutoZone, they checked the engine codes. They were: P0171, P0300, P0302, P0304.

Are you using transmission fluid in your power steering ?

Yes

Any hardware store. I got it at canadiantire

[@Patrick.Richard]

is there any filter in the reservoir and do we need to clean that ?

Looks like you use Dexron 3 for transmission fluid flush as well. Can I use same fluid for both?

Yes!

No difference!

My 2012 Suzuki SX4 has a very stiff steering. Any idea about the possible causes? Or is it just a feature of this model?

[@volvosweden]

You need proper diagnostics. It should be nice and easy to steer.

@@GY1025960 volvosweden is correct but the first thing I would check would be tire pressure. Another possible cause can be a pump thats on its way out.
