The Auto Rules
Registrace 4. 02. 2011
The Western Wyoming Community College Automotive Technology Program is all about having fun as you learn about automotive technology. These videos give you an idea of some of the things that we do while we are learning.
WWCC offers a certificate program in automotive technology that covers all 8 areas of ASE. We also have an associate of applied science degree in automotive for those that are serious about their education. Anything you want to know about automotive technology can be studied here. We also offer a certificate in alternative fuel vehicle technology. This certificate primarily focuses on natural gas powered vehicles, light-duty clean diesel technology, and gas/electric hybrids.

A Saturn Vue with a VTEC Problem
You might not have known that there were Saturns with VTEC. They just didn't call it VTEC. This is a 2006 Saturn Vue with a code P2647 causing the check engine light to illuminate.

Chassis Noise Diagnosis with Chassis Ear
zhlédnutí 50KPřed 9 lety
This device is a fantastic tool for finding squeaks, creeks, pops, clicks, and grinds anywhere on the vehicle. If you can't tell exactly where a noise is coming from this tool can help.
Hyundai Timing Chain Tensioner Problem
zhlédnutí 297KPřed 9 lety
Hyundai 3.3 V6 engines have a problem with timing chain tensioners that loose the ability to hold pressure at rest. This causes a noise at start up. This shows the bad tensioner and exactly what it is doing.
Toyota Hybrid MG1 and MG2

Another look at the magical unicorns found in the transaxle of the Toyota Prius. The Prius has no variable gear ratios between the traction motor and the final drive. This is a look at what that looks like.
Ford Expedition P0231 and Stalling Diagnosis
zhlédnutí 121KPřed 9 lety
This 2003 Ford Expedition with a 5.4 V8 stalls about every 5 to 10 minutes, and has a check engine light with the code P0231, fuel pump secondary circuit low. This is a common problem and this demonstration will show you how to diagnose the failure.
6.7 Powerstroke Low Fuel Pressure Problem
zhlédnutí 408KPřed 9 lety
After replacing the fuel filter the check engine light would illuminate and a message of "low fuel pressure" would show on the driver information display. Code P008A, "Low Pressure Fuel System Pressure Too Low" would show up on the scan tool. The fuel filter housing was not installed properly so it wouldn't bleed the air.
6.7 Powerstroke Broken Fuel Filter Housing
zhlédnutí 38KPřed 9 lety
Very common to brake the fuel filter housing on a 6.7 Powerstroke. This one might have been cross-threaded because it was leaking air into the low pressure fuel system before we tried to tighten it. The fuel filter was just replaced before it started having problems.

Piston Failure, 6.7 Cummins
zhlédnutí 33KPřed 9 lety
This piston melted down because of a leaky injector. If only someone could build an injector that would let this kind of expensive failure occur.
Retired Ambulance, 7.3 Powerstroke Quarter Mile, Lights On
zhlédnutí 11KPřed 9 lety
Because everyone wants to know how fast a tired ambulance with a diesel can run the quarter. This thing is slow but it's got low compression on all cylinders, a possible bad injector, and our dyno is at 6500 ft. above sea level (this is Wyoming after all) where you have to be really fast in order to be fast.
Looking at Diesel Exhaust Opacity
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 9 lety
Clean diesel technology is very clean. Even slightly older diesel technology is not that bad, but it is nothing compared to the newest engines. Check out the results comparing a 7.3 Powerstroke to a 6.7 Powerstroke.
Parasitic Load Testing
zhlédnutí 1,8KPřed 9 lety
A parasitic load, or key off battery draw will kill your car battery and can be very difficult to track down. If you follow a few simple steps it's not that difficult.
GT Car Racing Introduction
zhlédnutí 203Před 9 lety
In the U.S. most race fans don't really know what GT car racing is. Let's take a look at at some of these cars racing in the Pirelli World Challenge at the Utah Grand Prix at Miller Motorsports Park. You can see just what kind of cars race in the upper classes of GT racing. This is some of the best stock car racing around and Miller is a fantastic track.
Power Steering Rack and Pinion Problems
zhlédnutí 471KPřed 9 lety
Rack and pinion powers steering with a few problems. When a bellows boot on the rack splits open it will cause problems. The leak follows the bad boot most of the time. This one also has bad outer tie rod ends.
Bad Strut Install Ruined Brake line
zhlédnutí 1,6KPřed 9 lety
If you put a car together the wrong way you will cause damage. This car had a strut mounted the wrong way and it caused the tire to rub through a brake line. Luckily for the drive the line blew out in their driveway.

So will this not work if your car wont crank at all? You need at least some stsrter function to perform the test?
Almost 10 years later and you just help me! I couldn't figure out if it was these new tires with kind of a weird treadware or not but yesterday I didn't alignment in my tires was a weird humming thank God it doesn't sound like this lol
Sorry, mate, that wasn't our problem. We'd like our money back... oh, wait... 😉 Just kidding, it was exactly the issue. Thank you.
This looks like a former Boston EMS ambulance
Thank you for this video! It has helped me feel comfortable knowing that a particular issue I am having with my car is wheel bearing related
Aw thank you that’s exactly the noise my back driver side is making!
can the xtool d7 scan verify this neutral position switch ?
This is helpful in case I come across it and someone else said it sounds like a boat. It does.
Please someone tell me ASAP I have the exact same problem but when I turn left, the noise completely goes away. What side do I need to replace?

Let the heat from the radiator heat the vaporizer.
So what I'm really hearing amongst the collective so far is that it likely wouldn't be a one time it's done fix but that likely a periodic repeat might prove more effective... The real question perhaps being how many times would it take, just as was the pun on the getting to the center of the "Tootsie Pop" of yesterday? Still the result that most stands out to me as it being a good process (albeit one perhaps more for the private owner like myself who simply doesn't care how long it takes nor how many times) is the reading that showed improved outflow to inflow... So if you got the money and just need the real fix quick make that play but otherwise turn on your best romance music and give that car the time and focused attention it deserves and who knows the car might not run but the women might flock to you and surely one of them will have a car while you busy fine tuning yours...😂🤷♂️😎😉
"Do or Do Not, there is no try." - Yoda
My prayers are for you brother
Excellent , thank you...
Changed the damn bearing, noise is still there the exact same. My press bolt broke when trying to take the bearing out so i had to resort to using a hammer although i didnt directly hit on the bearing and also placed it on an even metal plate to avoid damage. Could i have damaged it possibly ? Mine was also on the left side And also to my suprise the bearing i ordered was supposed to be made in germany but i noticed it said china on it when i wanted to put it in. Could be a fake ? Brand was FAG btw
No steering wheel shimmy?
My car's making a very mysterious noise like a metal slinky so I thought it might be a bad wheel bearing, evidently not
Good video.
Always thought was my tires haha
I couldnt make mine do that turning...replaced bearing ...still same noise. Must be tire
How can I tell the difference between bad brakes or bad bearings
Maybe if you didn’t talk so much we could hear it
Can this happen right after an alignment??? My car wasn’t making that noice at all , I had new used tires put in and an alignment and it started making this noice , like an airplane taking off … and when the vehicle slows down a different noice
Thanks that's my problem
exact same problem on my 2013 Honda accord MT due to my dumb mistake not putting back the top 4 screws on top of granny that connects the linkage cables and one of the two dowel pins fell inside the gears…I’m forced now to just replace the whole trans assembly…can’t find any 5th gear only for sell online to replace it
It sounds and feels like my cars hitting the little rumble strips on the highway
Same issue here today, 2013 6.7 I changed both fuel filters and truck run ok but Humming noice was there didn’t pay much attention cause was running ok. After driving 180 miles I got engine light, reduced engine power and low fuel pressure message. Watched some videos and pulled the left connector on the top fuel filter. Drain some fuel/air in to a plastic bottle and run ok for a few miles then I’ll do it again but problem won’t go away. I’m ready to retighten the bottom filter. Thanks for this video.
Where did you source the rebuild kit from
Thanks So Much! Very Helpful!🙂
This is exactly what mine sounds like thank you!
Do you get pulsing through the brake pedal?
Mine only makes that noise when I'm slowing down from 50+ mph, then when I'm at 10 to maybe 5 mph, I hear clicking or ticking noises from the same right front wheel. 2018 mitsubishi mirage g4 economy car with Cadillac prices for parts. I replaced a downstream o2 sensor and that sob was over 300 bucks
How was the remote trigger connected up and how did it have 12v to start with ? was it just connected to the battery in the car or another battery ?
omg thank you so much i was wondering what sound i was hearing i thought my engine was gonna blow for a sec XD
Great video my car is doing that now I’m just glad this video exist ! Thanks
I have a hyundai Entourage. The motor has bracket or mount that is in the way of the timing cover. It almost seems like the engine is hanging off that bracket. I am not a mechanic but I think I can get this done. Do you know if the engine will drop if I remove the top bracket?
Dude thanks so much I thought I had a engine problem or bad spark plugs
All this time on my ranger I thought it was something rattling. Wow. This is exactly what it sounds like.
Can’t figure it out my old engine made this noise I put a brand new long block 3.0 in my ranger an it still has detonation can’t be carbon buildup has to be something fuel related
Retired GM technician here I want to thank you so much for the clear information you have here. I fought with this damn thing for a couple of of hours before I looked up your video. When you said bolt the trans back up I knew I was on the right road from there. ✌️💯👍
Feels weird to say thanks for making my heart sink, but thanks 😢
I have this noise. I had all bearing replaced only to srill hear it. Next try is the gearbox bearing!! If its not that then i have no idea
Thank you for this video! My car is making this same noise. Do I suggest they take a look at my wheel bearing or see what they say and hope they come up with the same diagnosis? One place found nothing wrong, twice. But they only drove the car for a few minutes, no faster than 20 mph.
Thanks...
Thanks...
Followed the steps tightened it and now won’t start
This helped me find out that my car's strange sound is most likely not a bad wheel bearing. So thanks!
Always try and have at least 1/2 tank fuel when priming these things as well. I have seen them loaded and on low angle and sucking bubles but saying 1/4 full.
Try 50 dollars these days with inflation
Can it extract wheel bearing damage?
Sadly I now know I have to get fix it parts but thankfully you lead me right to the issue
