Love your videos!
Scotty why does my bmw shift perfect with manual mode not on auto..
Don't buy any car until you ask Uncle Scotty ! Very important to get the lowdown on the vehicle !
Scotty, I'm going to buy a Scan Tool, I'm thinking about buying a Innova 3100, any Cheaper Scan Tool you Recommend me? Any good at Harbor Freight?
Run don’t walk away!
Now I feel like I should walk away from my own car 😊
Patrick Okwir 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agreed. Anybody want a 97 Tahoe that needs a cat and new ball jts?
hilarious! just drop it off at Scotty's house
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
If they say it's an easy fix, ask why they didn't fix it.
GOOD ONE!!!

They'll just say they're broke as hell
why would they fix it if they are selling it?
@@MasterElite403
If they say it's an easy fix, then why not fix it and sell it faster and for more $$$?
My point was, it's probably not an easy fix and to avoid itm
Good notion but i wouldn't waste my time on that conversation.
Having a mechanic say that you should buy your own tool instead of overpaying a mechanic may be the most genuine thing I've heard in a while
well thats scotty, a genuine mechanic
Agreed, though he's not the one losing the business... most of his viewers aren't his customers.
1. No exhaust smoke (0:20)
2. Make sure it idles normally (2:30)
3. No weird clacking on startup (3:40)
4. Check that it doesn’t have low oil/burning oil (5:30)
5. Make sure it shifts smoothly into reverse and forward in city and highway (6:30)
6. See how cruise control works on highway (7:45)
7. Use a scan tool to check for codes even if it doesn’t have a check engine light on (8:00)
Scotty Has taught me that just about every car is junk... Just riding on luck.
TRUTH !!
😂🤣😂..
Now you know why most mechanics just drive junkers around..
2007 KIA Spectra 5, 170,000 miles and not a single issue aside from the typical o2 sensor and transmission fluid/filter change, maintenance, etc. Best car I’ve ever owned.
lol right
I want a scan tool that yells "walk away."
RUN
Kelvin Miller in his voice lmao
I wish I bought one and it’s a mix of n/a incomplete and ok 🤔
Yes!!! 🤣
@@Rangoslap8 Run bi$%^ RUN!
One thing I heard was when you start the car make sure to check that all the indicator/warning lights come on when the key is inserted and that they all turn off. If a warning light has been disabled it won't turn on at all where as it should always come on at first to indicate that it is still functioning.
Things to check:
Tailpipe smoke, oil leaks 00:20
Idling 02:28
Start-up 03:42
Oil level 05:28
Transmission - shifting in reverse & forward, uphill & downhill, city & highway 06:31
Cruise control driving 07:45
OBD scan 08:00
Thank you, I appreciate it !
A sincere thank you
Can we get this on all Scotty’s videos?
I wish Scotty was my neighbor, life would never be dull.
Until you buy an EV.
Yea he is great guy isnt he
People would be coming over like dude what is wrong with your neighbor he’s hiding in the trunk of his car and you’d be like oh that’s just Scotty that’s normal.
Someone has to make a Scan tool with scotty's face yelling "waaaalk away" when there's an error code...or "endless money pit" with BMWs 😂
Yup... I'd buy one... bwahahahaha
Just pay Scotty his royalties
Hahahahah
Imma tell a car salesman "I can't buy this car, it has an OBVIOUS E.M.P. issue..."
Car salesman "......"
Me " ....an 'Endless Money Pit' issue. Good day, Sir"....
I think that's the general idea about why he makes these videos. He wants a marketing deal.
After watching his advice am going to buy a bicycle 😂
Seriously I watch this guy I guess if I dont have money for a new one I will go for bicycles
@@guyontheinternet8891 just walk away
Go to marksbargains@g.. I got a vintage Giant for sale.

When you start the ignition, all the dashboard warning lights turn on for a couple of seconds. If the check engine light doesn’t come on then the warning light isn’t working.
John C good point
Thank you!
Gracias.
I'd say that's a one-sided test. I've seen cars that don't flash the check engine light upon startup, so seeing it proves that it works. If it doesn't light up, then it's indeterminate, and you need to bust out the scanner to see if it's working but stupid or broken
John C That’s right. The reason they all light up is so you can check if any bulbs are out.
Recently went to a Honda dealer with my son to look at a 2019 Honda Fit Sport used with low miles my son is 21 and a ASE certified mechanic .
It pulled hard to the left after test drive we popped the hood and noticed the car was repainted the front Bumper was replaced and you can see slight over spray near the rubber parts , also he heard a rattle when turning the steering wheel only way that will happen is if they replaced the air bag .
After looking further it had a chunk taken out of one of the wheel beads the car was in a accident they acted like they didn't know this happens at the high end Dealers as well not the mom and pop shops .........it was a year old with 12-15k Wolf's in sheep's clothing out there
What is it about replacing the air-bag that would cause the rattle??
Where in the steering system is the rattle more than likely going to be coming from?
@@scottstabolito8841
I'm not a mechanic ...my son is i never really asked him but you be surprised how many cars are in a collision and they didn't replace the air bag, maybe broken clips that hold it missing parts etc all I know the dealer was acting stupid ...they wanted top dollar for a car that was involved in a collision and they didn't check it in properly. or they did not do a proper inspection on the car they just checked it in, you can even see where the wheels were hit on the curb and there was scratches out of the wheels but they had it on the lot asking top dollar for that car.
What we believe is that it was a lease return and the person that was on the lease got into an accident and they didn't report it to Honda they had it fixed at an independent body shop and then when the lease was up they turned the car back in and the Honda dealer didn't check that car in properly.

Gotcha. Well, thanks for taking time to reply back. But at least i can sorta expect that sort of courtesy from a Scotty Kilmer fan. Lol.
mmmmm now ik why my car makes that noise, didnt notice it til after i bought my car
I like this guy, I'm planning to buy a used SUV and I've been seriously watching his videos - you really get tons of information and tips. keep going Scotty!
I'm looking right now! After seeing these videos I feel a lot better. 02 Lexus 300 suv 3500.00 135,000 on it. Test driving it tomorrow morning Dec 12 2020
@@robertwasinger2286 how did it go?
@@j.d.leston4666 I ended up with a 2004 Toyota limited 4runner 4x4. 205,000 New belt, head gasket, no leaks, No burning oil and the big ? On runners No rust. The undercarriage was taken apart and all skid plates, frame, painted and undercoated. Bushings, brakes no cracks, rot or squeaks. Tires 32s have a couple of years left . I feel like I got a very good deal. Also I feel I got to it just in time to save the runner from neglecte. The couple had back to back babies it was the wife's truck. They are the 4th owner! Car fax records came back perfect. I also ran the vin through a app . Perfect also telling me it should have 225,000 miles and a buy from owner owned 8,500. He was asking 7,500.00 All I had was 6,000. Good deal! In the beginning perfect truck 4 them 2 kids. His plans were to keep it. He restored undercarriage and 2.5 body lift, tinted glass, touch screen stereo, nice basket on top. I planned to do all this on a stock runner got lucky. So all these babies bought Suburban. 4runner sat. Needs painted roof and hood. This is the only must Roof. Surface rust from basket. Galactic gray metallic. Engine compartment dirty. Dust everything. Oil quart low, radiator low .interior filthy spills sticky. I love to detail. It looks bran new now .I'll have it painted this summer. Interior no tears a couple of cracks in the back passenger seat little wear driver's seat perfect. Needed TLC. They just didn't care about it in 2 years.4 children under 11. Dust around all door jams. It looks restored now. Ty 4 asking
@@robertwasinger2286
Wow, glad you saved it. Best of luck!
I shifted it in reverse on the highway like you said, seller had a bad day.
Lololol, I was thinking that too. I guess that’s for manual only?
How fast were you going when you dropped it into reverse?
@@Ra-218 most of the way through trying out its best 0-60 time?
🤣
Lmao!
Scotty truly is one of a kind we need more honest mechanics like himself with his knowledge and skillset .
1 smoke from the tailpipe
2 does not idle correctly
3 clacking noises or rod knocking noises during startup
4 if it doesn't shift smoothly in the city or on the highway
5 use a scan tool to check for codes
Oooh “it just needs a tune up YOU HAVE NO I.D.E.A” 😆
Just think Scotty has a file on his computer just for images of laughing animals and that's golden
5 signs:
1. It's an Italian car.
2 It's a German car.
3. It's a British car.
4. It's a post - 2000 GM car.
5. It's a Chrysler product.
American Man I’ve had no issues at all, so he’s must be 100% wrong then?
Chrysler is garbage
I'd include 80s and 90s GM in there to be honest.
American cars are shart
They make Toyota,s in Britain and there Great.
This man providing value non-stop
Hey scotty ever since I started watching ur channel lk I've learned alot of knowledge about cars n trucks from you n I thank u sooo much it has saved me alot of $$$$ n I thank you
I am so glad I found your channel. It's kinda like having my Dad back to tell me how to fix things, etc. Blessings my Friend.
My dad and I worked on many cars together, and I miss my dad too.
@@californigirl Blessings to you. Best friends as well I bet. That's why I'm a MOPAR freak. Dad had a '66 Charger 4-speed posi. 383. Highly underrated hahaha.
1. smoking. 2. idling rough. 3. clanking in the engine. 4. shifting is not smooth.
I think he said check oil too.
PLUS use a scan tool!
5. OBD Scan tool being unable to read car readings (electrical problems/broken computer)
Thanks!😃
I'm feeling more confident.
Thanks
I want a scan tool that has Scotty inside it telling me all this stuff when I need it :D
Have Scotty's laugh when it comes across a tripped code!
Honestly Scotty is one of the best automotive teachers, from simple to difficult fixes he explains how to diagnose and fix very smooth so anyone can understand!

When you see people running from a used car lot, you know they've been watching Scotty's videos 😂
One of my favorite channels on CZcams and I’m not even a mechanic
Scotty’s advice on buying a used car: “just walk away and you’ll have the most perfect used car that you never get to drive.” Fantastic advice, Scotty.
Alternatively, my girlfriends advice: If you dont want a bad car, trouble or high costs, dont drive it.
My brother was mad when I bought a Tacoma. He sells Dodges. When he asked me why, I told him I didn't want Dodge problems. Interrogation over.
Good move👍
Well you dodged a problem... Eh?
He was sore because he was planning to make his next car payment off of you.
Im surprised he didnt try the maintenance excuse like its still 1960 and American cars are built well
Scotty's energy and enthusiasm is quite inspiring.
Thanks Scotty, worked on cars and trucks before OBD. Now getting ready to buy used, you really help.
Great informative info. Thanks! I'm an old school backyard mechanic and never get tired of picking up new tips :-)
Scotty, my favorite Honest Mechanic, telling people how to connect and disconnect a vacuum line to get a better price... lol!
Why not? It was already disconnected so you are returning it in the same condition. I dont do work on other peoples cars for free.
@@hoitlygtlio That isn't the point. An honest person would have told the seller that the problem was just a loose vacuum hose. You aren't going to get a further discount on the price that was already offered. As for mechanics, like Scotty, you get return business by being honest. Word of mouth is important. If you hide a simple fix from a customer hoping to make "big bucks," you won't stay in business long.
That is being honest in the world of buying cars. We are not talking about the world of running a business. You are comparing apples and oranges.
So if I go look at a car and change the spark plugs to see if they are the issue then I'm obligated to leave the new ones in and tell the seller everything? You are crazy! If the seller wants to know all of that then they should pay a few hundred and have a mechanic go over the car and figure out the problem and fix it and then sell it.
@@hoitlygtlio Honesty is honesty, in the world of mechanics, car sales, gambling, and marriage. I would know that I cheated the seller, and that would be enough.
Then the seller needs to pay a mechanic to go over their car before the sale. Just like I would pay a mechanic to go over a car before I buy. If the seller wants to know what i or my mechanic found then they need to pay for the labor. That's how things work. No one has any reason to expect something for nothing. And not giving out free information is NOT being dishonest.
Seller: WHAT R U DOING!!!!!
Me: scotty said to see if it shifts smooth into reverse, in town and on the highway.
EABA EndAllBeAll hella underrated comment 😂😂😂
Scotty your knowledge is unparalleled!
I've learnt more about engines in the past week than I did all my life
It is so nice to hear someone in the automotive industry with integrity
I looked at my car liked it and bought it...but now I need a scan tool...
Wally World has some from 19.99 and up ?
Yes, me as well.
I don't even have a car. They're endless money pits. I love Scotty's show anyhow!
MrDan557 drive a Toyota or Lexus.
MrDan557 what do you waste your money on?
MrDan557 another waste of money: state funded transportation like trains and busses
@@kloschuessel773 That's why I ride my bicycle everywhere or get a cab. I have good clean public trains running right across the road on top of that, so why bother with a car? :-D I'd rather travel then spend thousands every year on some endless money pit. :-D
Hey, good idea for a CZcams channel!
The first I notice about a vehicle here in Minnesota: if it's really rusty, then turn away as that's a sign of bad or nonexistent maintenance. 2nd thing I check is the underbody and the frame. 3rd thing I check is if it hesitates, walk away as it could be an o2 leak or an engine problem.
"if it hesitates,",we dont know what that means
You’re great! Thank God your on here. I learn so much and I can show my daughters what to look out for. Thank you!
Darn, wished I had a scan tool before I got married 😉
Funny
Lmao. Great comment of the month
Bet it would have said 'no communication' as soon as you have 'plugged' it in.
LOL That is one hell of an idea.
I KNOW WHERE THE PLUG IN XD 😘😘😘😘😘🤣🤣🤣
Back when I was looking at cars I saw this nice looking FRS, as soon as I started the vehicle it was blowing white smoke (this was during the summer mind you) and the salesman said "that's only because it hasn't been used in a week".
The end of story was I ran as fast as I could from that dealer.
Thanks Scotty! I enjoy listening to your advise everyday! I just fixed a problem recently pertaining to the fuel tank vent valve on one of my BMW’s by listening to you! Thanks again!
Scotty, great tips! I'm 34F that had my dad look at any car I'm buying through the years. I now have 2 daughters of my own that I'll be helping buy cars in the very near future. My dad lives pretty far away now and these tips will not only help me buying a "new to me" used car right now, they will help me with my daughters. Some useful information I can pass on to them for their future kids too!
Want to save money ?
Don't buy a car.
buy a bus
I like to drive too much. Bought a Kia for $400, rebuilt the front end, put a power steering pump in it, and I now own a great little car with no payments and no issues
Ultimately that is true. I live in Houston like Scotty does and this city is so large you really need a car. I bought a 2001 lexus gs300 with 181k on it for 1700$ i believe I circumvented many used car problems by going with lexus. So far i really like it.
I agree but having your own personal transportation is better than anything. I’ve been catching the bus for a while and it sucks. I like the freedom of owning a car I can go wherever I want plus women like when you have your own car.
Renting is alright i guess.
I love this guy ge pulls you in with his charisma and knowledge
I love the classic reverse on the highway test, absolute game changer! Side note. Great video Scotty!
Discovered your channel yesterday. Thanks for all the great info and the honesty :)
Hey Scotty, Should I.....
Scotty: Walk away.
.....get... married...? okay....
_"Walk, don't run away..."_
Whew! I'm glad it's not the other way around because it's a long way home and I'm no spring chicken.
Should have said," Run, don't walk." from it. But move away at your own chosen speed.
Man, whoever is doing the pics has such excellent timing That just keep cracking up throughout his videos.
Thanks for being an honest person and taking the time to inform the public about scams and teach those who don't know about how to work on automobiles.
I've been watching Scotty for a while now so I started to listen to him.
I went to a Ford dealership to buy a used Pontiac vibe (same platform as a Toyota Matrix) with 65k miles they had posted on their website at a reasonable price. After a lot of negotiating they would honor the posted price only if I took their in-house financing, no cash purchase allowed. Bunch of nonsense.
I remembered Scotty's advice then and there "never buy a used car at a dealership". Great tips Scotty, keep it up!
Cause they would make 2 times the money on their interest rates. if you wanna buy a car from dealership get a loan from the bank directly with your own financing set up. DO NOT get the dealership financing, its a scam and they will rip you off.
Couldn't you take the financing then just pay it off at once next week. They can't stop you from doing that.
"That's ok, I've already got 4% locked in with my bank"
"Oh?? Well let me see what we can do..."
You said you listen to Scotty and you went to ford dealership 🤷🏽♂️😂doesn’t make any sense. Get a Toyota forget about any other car specially used ones
I NEVER buy a used car from ANY dealership. I've warned my father in law time again about used cars from these places and he's gotten ripped off, repossessed and lemons more times than I have fingers. I finally got him to buy a friend of mine's car because he was leaving the state and simply could not take the car with him . He only paid 500 dollars for it and he got a steal !!
Scotty kind of reminds me of an older Saul Goodman.
...with a mind like Mike Ermantrout
Hi Mr Scotty- I’m sooo grateful for your channel- thank you beyond words. I’ve done more car mechanics because of the great videos you’ve made , now I’m explaining to others how to be confident to do some of their own maintenance. I’ve also turned more people on to your channel than I can count( well I can count but I don’t know the real number) I’m a hairstylist by trade and I’ve resurrected a ‘99 infinity G20 230k miles and it runs like a cheetah! Thank you for all your helpful advice. Happy thanksgiving and enjoy Tennessee. - Keith R.
this man... makes me so happy. i randomly came across one of his videos i have now watched at least ten of his videos... AMAZING! scotty is my new favorite go to mechanic video guy. you the best man!

That does it I'm getting a scan tool, you've drilled that pragmatic reality into my mind.
Instead of always going to my friends with scan tools, now some of my other friends without can come to me.

“Walk, don’t run away” That’s the casual way you diss the car - keep your cool as you turn your back. Thanks for a super-useful video Scotty!
Hehe.
