      Hey Scotty, can you please answer this question in the next video? My 2001 Dodge Dakota Sport has trouble starting. It blows white smoke while running, I believe I need to replace the piston rings. Has over 200,000 miles on it. When I attempt to start it, it spits and sputters and then eventually cranks up. I believe it’s a fuel injection problem. Do you think it could be anything different?

    It's a shame about the oil burning issue on these 2.4L GDI engines. I test drove a 2011 Sonata SEL and an SE when they first came out. I was very impressed with both. Solid cars. From my understanding, the engine issue aside, they're quite reliable. Also, remember Toyota had oil burning issues on various models 15-20yrs ago.

  • @pandaant
    @pandaant Před rokem +35

    You know, something interesting about these cars (that you most likely already knew) is that the GDI pump is mechanical. It’s run off of an extra lobe on the cam shaft, and that lobe pushes a plunger, which allows the gas to be fed to the injectors. Pretty cool!

    • @mjkirk12
      @mjkirk12 Před měsícem

      And after 100K miles the GDI pump seal will fail and fuel will leak into the crankcase - diluting the oil and giving excess wear on the engine. Not cool... $250 to replace.

      As you said, if you don't get the right advice, go somewhere else. Good luck in your search of a competent mechanic or shop, my neighbor has a 2010 Altima, yes it's all rusted because of the road salt used here in Montreal, but he drives it, his son and daughter drive it as well. The car is rarely sitting in the driveway. So if the engine and related components are still good than keep it.

      I don't see what's wrong with that. Sometimes the manufacturer is the only one with the knowledge to diagnose a random issue, or is the only one able to source a part. And not everything there is a ripoff. I used to do all my oil changes at the honda dealer on my old accord. And they would charge me $80, which is a good price for synthetic. But unlike random mechanics, they would also top up all my fluids, do a general inspection and let me know if something is going soon

      Still I doubt that this car has never gotten any suspension work at 169.000miles that's 271.000km. Here in Germany some MOT tester would have said that struts or anything is worn and unsafe. At least that would be on German roads and working in a dealership usally any suspension work has to be done at 140.000km/86.000miles doesn't really matter which brand I guess. All the Opels, VWs, Mercedes and BMWs I've seen need it at that point in time.

The flywheel was too worn at 192,000 miles for my car to keep going. I got 117,000 working miles out of it because the flywheel broke before the starter did.

    I can't believe that is in spec. Say someone isnt auto savvy and not adding oil between changes, theyd be bringing in a car that is close to or is bone dry and ready to blow between their scheduled maintenance oil change.
    My GF has a 2020 palisade that is burning oil. It has about 50,000 miles. She is on top of her oil changes. She was experiencing a shake at idle/stop. She was driving to the dealership because of it and it stalled on the way there. Incredible that this is found acceptable.

    I have a 2017 Honda Civic with a 2.0 L engine. I've never had any problems I am just creeping around 50,000 miles. And I noticed the car sounds different now when it starts. I believe the starter is just beginning to go out. It doesn't have the natural loud solid Crank that you would get from starting a vehicle. Is it normal for Honda Civic starters to go out around the first 50,000 miles? Should I buy a new starter or keep running it until this one goes out

Used 1 quart oil every 500 miles but engine ran like a top. Eventually lost it to road salt. Had welded the frame a few times til welder said no more. Probably had another 100k miles on it. Had an engine even I could understand and fix.

It shifts great, gets pretty good gas mileage, ac blows cold, has 0 leaks, and burns 0 oil. I know right now prices are up but even if i was in the market for a car today i would go for a toyota.
