VERY MUCH ON POINT VIDEOS , REALLY LIKE THE WAY YOU PRESENT YOUR CONTENT IT'S GREAT HOW IT STAYS IN REAL TIME EASY TO REMEMBER AND MOST IMPORTANTLY UNDERSTAND . YOU ARE A TRUE PROFESSIONAL WITH KEEN INSIGHT THANKS FOR YOUR TIME !
So I've spent the past 2 months trying to troubleshoot my problem of car dying while driving and not being able to start again. Anyways, I had watched your video with the chipmunk nest a little while back and thought "come on, there's like very little chance that this would issue would happen to others." Well, I went to take a look at the Jet Siphon Pump and lone behold there's a next and the little shit chewed thru a wire!" Thanks for posting your video!
No problem. I post videos to help others like yourself as well as just to share the experiences I have in the shop. Glad you were able to locate your issue.
I noticed a lot of you guys aren't connecting a battery charger maintainer when you run the scanner. I connect the charger maintainer first and make sure every battery is fully charged as well before the car leaves the shop.We use the Fronuis Battery charger.
Is that used for e36 m40 b18? Cause in my car i checked 2 conector blue & black no + came out(test pen),but in white conector i have + came out sir.please help me
I have a 2004 BMW 330i. The fuel gauge does not work. It used to work. The yellow empty light is one and the needle is all the way to the left. I did the BMW Instrument Cluster Hidden Test Functions and the fuel gauge needle rolled all the way to the right and back to the left. So that part is fine. I have already replaced the fuel pump and the sensor unit. I had a mechanic to check it too and all checked out fine. I checked the wires and connector on the left behind the drivers seat leading to the fuel sensor, and there doesn't appear to be any broken wires. My next move will be to get my multimeter and check the wiring connector. So, other than that, I am at my wits end with what could be the problem. I am open to suggestions.
Hey did you ever find the solution? Experiencing a similar issue on my 2003 BMW 325xi SULEV, we swapped the tank with a 318i SULEV, noticed a bit of corrosion on the fuel gauge relay so I just ordered a new one but I don't know if that is the issue or its a programming issue maybe...
If I fix everything that’s wrong it could turn into a $10,000 car real quick. Bad thing thing is the resale value is about $2200-3000 with the torn seats. Still, the car is fun to drive and get decent mileage.
It’s a scantool from the company Launch. This one is the diagun IV but I think the diagun V is out now. It cones with an android based device and interface.

Nice work Chad, I was honestly expecting more codes in that system LOL
Same here. I expected all the lights to be lit up and at least 20 codes.

Very well done video, I appreciate your brevity.
After watching your video I checked my wiring and had the same issue
No parts required FTW 😁 Now you have enough gas to drive it to the crusher haha
Ha. I might have a buyer for it so we will hold off a few more weeks before turning it into beer cans.
I changed both fuel pumps in back seat & my fuel gauge still ain’t working.. help!! Haha
Good video, and nice find! I am also afraid of rodents jumping out at me haha
You forgot to add "bail water out" to your list. German Fishbowl 🤪😁
I was going to leave it and buy some plants and fish to put inside. Fresh water stuff out here in Colorado none of that salty water here.
"If this doesn't get uploaded, it means I blew up". Lol 😂😂😂😂 Really Chad??? Ayayayay!
You never know. 🤣🤣 they could have pulled the footage from the wreckage.
if that were the case i would have uploaded on my channel ...muwahaha

Awesome work Chad. Can't wait for more videos on the fish tank 😂😂
Now I have to wait for the snow to clear so I can actually drive it again and find all the other issues.

Same problem for me
Everybody loves a challenge. That car is definitely one. $400? Perhaps you overpaid. Haha. Thank you for sharing.

It was more likely a squirrel's Nest not a rat nest the cause of the problem was not rectified the squirrels would do it again
I think your right. The nest looked more like a squirrel or chipmunk and not a mouse.
Where is your shop?
Southern Colorado.
What's the program you are using on your phone, to check the fault codes?
It’s a scantool from the company Launch. This one is the diagun IV but I think the diagun V is out now. It cones with an android based device and interface.
@@ThePracticalMechanic Thanks a lot chap!! Keep up the excellent work!!
boom! ;)
BMW has recalls on front airbags
You get what you pay for
6th gear ?!
Found out why it’s so hard to find sixth gear.🤦🏼♂️ it’s only a five speed with a six speed knob.
@@ThePracticalMechanic hahahah yeah, that's what I thought... 325 never came with a 6-speed. Well, at least it's manual (:
U talk to much
I’m not into silent films. Thanks bro.
