Tesla 12v battery replacement in real time by just reading directions
zhlédnutí 2KPřed rokem
Showing how to replace the 12v battery in a 2022 Model 3 Performance by just reading the service manual. If you can read directions, you can do simple things on Teslas yourself. There are 2 different types, ones with heat pump and the ones without the heat pump so be careful to make sure you are looking at the directions for the correct one. Not sure what would happen if we disconnect the safet...

Russian sanctions and what that means for you and your car

Largest Russian export is energy in form of crude oil and natural gas but sanctions against Russia does not include those. 2nd largest export is palladium and other precious metals.

We will start seeing more catalytic converters thefts. ...

    Take it to the junk yard. It’s a N/A it’s worthless. The vr4 is the only version of this that’s worth an engine rebuild. Now here’s what is sad about this particular story. Most likely, The owner is going to do this ghetto engine freshen up by replacing the spun bearing with a new bearing which will never be within spec because the crankshaft journal is damaged as well. So the owner will change the spun bearing, then he or she will sell/dump this car on someone else and pass it off as a good running car. I see this all the time

    I looked at my Wife's car last night and the same thing happened to her. The caliper started dumping brake fluid everywhere because the thing that puts pressure on the pads was fully extended. The pad was missing on the outside and the inside was worn to nothing and the whole caliper was loose. Luckily no longterm damage once the caliper piston or whatever it is called was C clamped back into place, it held the brake fluid, but definitely scary.

    I just did my front brakes. People say back caliper pins don’t need cleaning if they’re still bouncy. I’m going to be doing those next weekend. I plan on taking pins out to clean and re lube. Not using brakes is almost just as bad as always using them (not really )

    @jjamespacbell Před rokem

    Per ChatGTP for my 2021 Model Y Tesla has not provided a specific maintenance schedule for the 2021 Model Y as their vehicles generally require minimal routine maintenance. However, some general service recommendations for Tesla vehicles include: Tire Rotation, Balance, and Alignment: Rotate and balance your tires every 10,000 to 12,000 miles or as needed. Check the alignment if you notice uneven tire wear or the vehicle pulling to one side. Brake Fluid Replacement: Replace the brake fluid every 2 years or as specified by Tesla. Battery Coolant Replacement: For the Model Y, it is recommended to replace the battery coolant every 4 years for the Standard Range variant and every 5 years for the Long Range and Performance variants. Replace it sooner if you notice any issues with the battery temperature or cooling system. High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filter Replacement: If your Model Y is equipped with a HEPA filter, replace it every 3 years. Air Conditioning Service: For the Model Y, service the air conditioning system every 2 years for the Standard Range variant and every 4 years for the Long Range and Performance variants. High Voltage Battery: The high voltage battery in the Model Y has a warranty of 8 years or a specific mileage limit, depending on the variant. There is no regular maintenance required for the battery, but you should monitor its performance and consult Tesla Service if you notice any issues. Remember to always consult your Tesla Model Y owner's manual or contact Tesla Service for the most accurate and up-to-date maintenance information.

    Good video. The problem is that sometimes places charge for diagnostic time but they actually guess what it is, and a couple months later the problem is back. A year and a half ago I was charged 279.00 dollars for changing this same part on a 2017 Jeep Patriot. Check engine light is back on with same P0456 code for the 3rd time now.

    How do you determine if the brake fluid needs to be replaced? So the fluid in the reservoir does not move through the whole system?

    • @JaysGarageRaleigh1
      @JaysGarageRaleigh1 Před rokem

      There’s test kits that check for moisture content and copper content. This system is a hydraulic system and so fluid doesn’t circulate like a coolant system. So fluid typically stays stagnant, more so in Teslas. You need fluid in the reservoir bc as your brake pads wear down, fluid in the reservoir will get low

    • @MTNRanger
      @MTNRanger Před rokem

      @@JaysGarageRaleigh1 Yes, I have done those test strips on the fluid in the reservoir. It's probably time to get it replaced for me.
