hello thank for video
This happens when I do a cold river crossing and the radiator freezes over. Once it's warm, it goes away.
High resistance in the load side, contacts. Replaced a few before.
Thanks for sharing this.
Someone might say, hi Rob. You didn't need all these fancy tools to diagnose this fault. I say. With the right tools and knowledge, you can make quick diagnosing of these issue in the automotive world. It's just how much you want to invest in yourself. Thanks for the video as always
My door switvh is working but still door light remaining on
What is the part number for the wiring harness?
I wished you showed how you removed the carbon. You said to just wipe it with solvent, ie, not spray flood, so I guess it's because it dissolves the grease in the throttle shaft bearing.
Where can I find you?
My Nissan tiida is surging, can I get help from you
What's it going to be like with the fuel as they are already heavy using fuel standard?
Got a viva that i had to change coil pack. No more falts but its now stalling and running rough. Any ideas what could be the cause?
How much would this cost to be done?
Does the abs module have to be vin specific or can it be just the same car?
What is the part # for this part?
What is that part
This is a very informative video. When I click on the “MODE” button on the GTC 505. I am seeing “Burn Time, Nose / Kick, Tachometer and Voltage”. I am not seeing the “Dwell ” or “Ramp” option on the GTC 505 instead I am seeing “Nose / Kick”. I cannot view the Ramp time of an ignition coil.
Just another comment to say thankyou, 2006 BK Mazda, changed all engine mounts then stalled on slowing or stopping, but would only do when engine coolant was cold, once warm it wouldn’t do it. Issue solved with a strip and clean of the throttle body and a relearn, cheers mate 🤟🏽
Thank you for letting me know!
Hey how are you bud I've got a P0008 code on my VE are you in Victoria
I'm not mate but tell me where in Vic you are and I can point you to someone in my network.
Northern suburbs Melbourne
Give The Automotive Clinic a call. They aren't too close to you I think but worth the drive.
Hi Romano I am keen to understand the long term effects on engine reliability as well as the one thing that bugs me... I am based in South Africa and also have the 2016 FJ cruiser, i have 285/70/R17 tyres, bullbar and rooftop tent. When driving between 120-130km/h the gears hunt between 5th (2000rpm) and 4th (3000rpm) and often even 3rd (4000rpm). How do you find driving at that cruising speed between 120-130km/h?
Hey mate, find us online and send us an email. It will be easier than going back and forth on here.
I've just done this with my VZ crewman. Had same issue, replaced tcm and bob your uncle, it worked fine. Except now the car is "overheating" very fast although when I pop the bonnet the engine is cold enough to lay my cheek on. And the car shuts off when it gets hot. When I try to start it the AUTO gearbox sounds like it is grinding ITS A NEW REBUILT BOX and I didn't have this issue before I replaced the tcm?
I've had this tool for 2 years. It's an overpriced graphic data interpreter. You can do all of these tests by yourself with a cheap scope or by reading live data and applying logic to what you see. It doesn't have bi-directional controls. It eats RAM and battery. The tool isn't going to do anything but confuse/mislead you if you don't know what you're don't to begin with.
Thanks got my idle relearn done.
Thank you sir 🙏
Just valeted one of these today and it over heated after idol for 30 mins. Now the guy is try to bill me for he’s Range Rover over heating. Joker piss me off to say the least.
Hi I have the same similar issue but with my fg xr6. I replaced the map sensor and still does the same thing. What else could it possibly be?
Bloody legend mate you've just saved me some $$
Had one of those recently. Suspected Instrument Cluster. Had to resolder what another mechanic had an attempt to repair. I isolated it to the PCM. Josh confirmed it and after a second-hand install - happy days! Good content Rob - thanks mate. 😉😉
I had a few like these. A good wack does the trick.lol😮
Great job Rob.. Josh is the best..
should of waited till the end to comment😂
good work. common problem if you push on the cluster face problem goes away, needs stripping a re flow all the joints
I'm curious, if you are aware, presumably before you started working on the car, that they have numerous history of cluster failings. Why waste customers chargable time chasing other areas first? Or did you only find out about the clusters tendencies of failures after getting the cluster repaired?
Brilliant Rob, thanks for sharing.
well done Rob. just make it more specific for someone that can missunderstood, at 5.15 you mentioned for hi speed and low speed can .both ,hi and low ,has the same speed, the different is that they are working on different voltage. it's hi voltage and low voltage, but on the same speed. thanks for sharing this video. nice trick, the punch on the dash. it's my trick now ,too.
good diag! 👌 Side note, those screens in the cluster were common to fail, and can be serviced separately from the cluster 👌
What if you followed those steps but the app keeps saying it's off-line, check with two different sums and both work on my spare mobile.
Great video! Thanks!
Hats off to you sir mechanic myself and haven’t found one detailed video as good as yours good stuff man showing raw real deal diagnosing!
Thank you mate. Much appreciated!
You have helped me, as I have similar problem.
How you say spark plug wire down under?
Ignition lead 😁
i have the same vehicle and it only runs rough when its in park but smooth in drive
What happened to the original BCM ?
I don't know, it was a mailbox order
More tools. 😢. I'm going to go broke out here
Bro, you know I don't even like CZcams. I only post these videos in the aim of making you broke. Please send me screenshots of your empty bank account to make me feel accomplished 🤣🤣
I want to know the truth... How many times did you do the door dance before you figured out it wasn't working 😅. On a serious note what it the difference between a master and slave key? I've always been nervous adding a key to Toyota with my 508. Should I be?
I'm embarrassed to say but I did learn that sometimes I should use my brain and check the scan tool instead of doing the backwards egg beater two step door dance first 🤣 I'm sure there is no difference and not sure why they are separated on the tool but no absolutely nothing to be nervous about. Add it and do a video on it, I want to see how you go and if you end up having to do the sidewinder jumpshot barnyard door dance!
Will be good to see more videos and results using this gear, cheers
Interested in seeing more of the dynopro too or just more so flex tuning?
Autel im508 or obdstar which tool you prefer
I only have the IM508. The only obdstar tool I have is the DC706 for cloning modules.
