    You can put the suspension in off road height and put axel stands underneath. Then lower the suspension and once it sits on the stands it raises up to extended mode. If you press and hold the suspension up button and the brake pedal for a few seconds, it goes into super extended mode. Plenty of room to get underneath then.

    I really like these videos with a bunch of little jobs & fixes. It's more detailed and interesting, way better than seeing just another timelapsed video of someone pulling an engine or bolting on a bunch of expensive new stuff.

    6:30, it's actually a really ingenious way of rustproofing this area of the vehicle by covering it in used oil. Servicing probably use a suction hose to remove the oil which is likely why the drain plug was so hard to get off. Recently dicovered the channel and love your delivery style really enjoying it thanks!

  • @Horsleyclassics
    @Horsleyclassics Před 4 měsíci +6

    you can disconnect the bonnet rams and lift it up to vertical for servicing there is a clip each side on each hinge that holds it in place.

    I've followed similar guys on a couple of RC channels. One in particular made the shift from part time to full time during 2023.
    It can be done and I wish you well. The good news is you're a natural presenter, filled with bags of enthusiasm for your subject and exude honesty & personality from every pore.

    I love these videos, you're not alone when it comes to some of those "what am I doing" moments. Or those moments when you take on a difficult job and what you thought would be the easy part ends up taking 2 hours. Keep going though, these sorts of videos help us all get a bit of encouragement when we work on our old cars!

    Looks a million dollars. I’ve been diy’ing on cars since 1988, 2 weeks ago I had to replace the alternator in my modern vag product, a pain but not to bad - the wheel arch liner was a sod, and with one screw missing I gave up as got dark the frost returned and neither a magnet on a stick or torch revealed the screw. No problem though, a quick test drive and re-park to find my new winter tyre deflating rapidly and the screw was found - yay. We all make mistakes, and some of us continue to do so. It’s just the magic of life 😤. Sorry about your grandad but good innings.

    Great channel , After 60yrs of Diy street 2nd hand car maintenance I have decided that oil drain plugs are'nt used anymore especially with the advent of plastic sumps. I recommend using a 12v electric oil suction pump to remove old oil either thro filler point or dip stick hole, it's much cleaner ,less spills on the ground or up your arm! Keep up the good work.
