Haha gd thing you ran into this video. Was it the ppl at the auto parts no names. Yeah that's where it would normally be on top but not on this engine.
Thanks again, I got a new t.stat in last night and bled air out, car heated up big time still with water bubbling out the resevoir and I wasn't sure what to think. Test drive this morning and it got real hot. I bled the air again and a bunch came out. Filled it up with water, ran it, and hot water still blew up out of the reservoir while running. So I bled again and then it seemed to work okay, my wife drove to work and the temp stayed down. BTW I was happy to find the t stat on top of the engine and super easy to get to on my 95 3.5L. If you have any house painting questions let me know, that's what I do for work.
I'm glad I came across your video. I was "about" to remove the top housing to replace the thermostat.You saved me so much time Wouldn't it be easier to remove the oil filter? Just asking. Awesome video. Thanks a lot
I have a 2009 charger 3.5 and, the alternator is not on the right side like yours is, mine is on the left side. I cannot get to the bottom bolt because the power steering pump is in the way. Can I get to it with a 1/4" universal? you cannot get to the bottom bolt from under the car. Awesome video. Thanks so much.
Neil Williams Hi Nail is your air box on the way?? Remove And u might be able to do it from the top mine had a lot more going on the top so I choose the bottom and I used a swible. You can wrap your swible with black tape so u have a little more control.
Your alternator is on the right but, my power steering pump is on the right. How do I get to the bottom bolt on the thermostat housing off? The a/c compressor is blocking the bottom bolt. I cannot find a video on my vehicle. 2009 dodge charger 3.5 sxt. Awesome video. Thanks so much.
Oh and also I have tape around my hose would that be the reason or something else? I just fixed a code p0455 leak or something but the hose wasn't the issue like the guy I bought it from said it was.???
+Yvonne Chavez the code PO455 i belive is air on the fuel evaporator system. That could come on when you put gas on a car and the car is not off. all the way what hose do you have tape on??
hola es verdad muchos videos quieren que se quite de arriba gracias por el video , solo unas preguntas nececito quitar el filtro de aceite si o no? y la otra pregunta es quito la llanta y desde ahi trabajo o solo de bajo del carro desde ahi trabajo ? y ala gasket le tengo que poner algo o solo asi?
Hola Ricardo yo no quite el filtro por la rason que el cliente no me pedio un cambio de aceite pero si el carro es tuyo seria Buen momento de acerle el cambio yo use un codito que se puede mover oh yo no use cellador asi funsiono bien.
I have a 2001 dodge intrepid 3.2 engine and I just bought it off some dude but when i drive around for bout 20 mins with a.c on it goes up to the h then slowly down to the middle is this normal? cause the dude at the smog shop said these type cars do that? it didn't sound right cause my 2000 Mitsubishi went to the h and I blew a head gasket and radiator cracked. Does eny 1 know what needs to be fixed? please get back to me asap. So i can get it checked out thank you!!
+Yvonne Chavez does the heater work?? And i am not sure what coukd be going on other than the cooling system may have air on it. And it needs to be bleeded..
Very helpful glad he showed where the bleeder screw was to
Thank you I could not get my words together.
Why are people telling me I have to take the thermostat off from the top of the engine?
Awesome video, Mr. Fixit ayala. Thanks a lot.

Mr. Fixit ayala Yes I did, I followed another guys instructions exactly. I guess it took a couple trys for though.
ok glad it work yeah this cars are a bit hard headed to bleed out..
ridezarize ok gd gd.. and i will keep on mind if i need any tips on how to paint i hit you up. got to love youtube.
+XC Painter i thoght i had replied to your comment how is your wifes car doing??

Yeah that's funny yeah glad I saved you some time. Some ppl actually do open the top.
Yes and in some cases on the lower bolt you might want to use three long extensions
I have a 2009 charger 3.5 and, the alternator is not on the right side like yours is, mine is on the left side.

Es igual para un motor 3.2 igual es un Intrepid modelo 2000
Hola Fernando yo creo que si pero no estoy tan seguro.
Muchas gracias por contestar voy a intentar ver si están en el mismo lugar
No hay problema si me avisas si esta en mismo lugar.
The shop wants to charge me 500 to replace my thermostat in my 02 intrepid is it worth it?
Is it worth it to you? A few questions can you do it your self? Do you have the tools? Have you looked at another shop?

@@mr.fixitayala310 GRACIAS
Is this in the same location for a 2009 dodge charger 3.5?
Awesome video. Thanks a lot.
Yes as long as is a 3.5. I made this video since the the thermostat is not on the normal location
@@mr.fixitayala310 do u know where the water pump for this car is
@@esgarza1486 Hello so the water pump replacement is in mid engine with the timing belt..
@@mr.fixitayala310 thanks
@@esgarza1486 you are welcome..
hey there! so is it necessary or recommended to bleed the system after replacing thermostat? i have a 95 Int. with 3.5L 24v
ridezarize yes any time you open your collent syetem is recomended to bleed the cooling system.
Mr. Fixit ayala awesome, thanks for letting me know .
ridezarize no worries and you need the car to heat up so the thermostat open ups. and it starts to flow. press the hoes so it starts to flow.

+Yvonne Chavez does the heater work?? And i am not sure what coukd be going on other than the cooling system may have air on it. And it needs to be bleeded..
no the heater blows cold? and the hose to the left side by the oil?
Yvonne Chavez ok if you have no hot air coming out of the heater then you have a bad water pump. and that might be the reason your car over heating.
+Yvonne Chavez I thoght i had replied and had said that if ur heater is blowing cold air that u might need a water pump rrleplacement
