hi scotty i have a question why is my car turning off when i use the AC
i change the battery still no result
Oooo time to get the popcorn and watch the fireworks
What year or years would you recommend purchasing a used Chevy Tahoe or GMC Yukon? As you always state, "if it's taken care of."
Hey Scotty.When will you review Acura MDX third or forth gen??
Do you like 1985 Chevrolet chevette"scotty'' not Corvette I drove one all over nevada🚘 california 🏝🛣oregon🏞 🚙 idaho montana washington state 🧸
“We’re going 64” as he blows past a 35 mph sign. My guy.
🤦♂️🤣
😂
Hah
35 mph for going the other way 😂🤣😂
Gotta test her somewhere
At 4:05 Scotty says "Going 64 now" as he passes a 35 mph sign. This channel is pure gold.🚗🚗
That's Scotty for ya!!!!
Classic Scotty
Lol I had to re watch that
Well spotted
What sign? Lol
If you want your car to feel sporty:
Step 1 - borrow my 03 Prius for a day
Step 2 - get back in your car
Prius is quick, my friend owns a Toyota IQ with a 1.0litre and a CVT. Doesn't have enough power to move out of its own way
09 Prius was a beast when I drove it
@@vinnyp3715 The 09 is roughly 50% faster than the 03.
I want the two chevy metro
Or better yet, drive an early 00s Civic with with manual transmission. Also, the 1.7 liter naturally aspirated 4 pot has a better sound than a 3 cylinder and gets over 40 mpg. Also it’s pretty fast for 127 horsepower.
Crazy times. Scotty has something positive to say about GM product.
he did also do one about obs chevy trucks that he said you should buy. although he was shitting on the new gm trucks at the same time lol
I went and tried out some smaller suvs. I test drove several brand new ones. I wanted something a little bigger than a car cause I’m a big guy but with better gas mileage than my old 2011 Nissan Titan (11 and 13 mpg city/hwy). I got a 2022 Buick Encore GX after trying out several. It has a 1.3L 3 cylinder (exact engine as the trailblazer Scotty drove in this video). It drives amazing and has way more power than you’d expect. I do plan on buying a Toyota Tundra or Ford F-150 when I pay off this Encore GX to pull a boat but I can see why he liked this GM. It’s a nice ride. These are fairly new engines so time will tell about their longevity. I’m glad Scotty didn’t hate it. Kinda made me feel better about my purchase! Lol
@@killernp1317 I’m waiting on a trail blazer. I’m hoping everything works out over time. Imma baby it and try to get 300k out of it💪🏿
@@javadabaron81 I ended up caving and traded my Encore GX for a truck. I got a 2022 Toyota Tundra because I just couldn’t get used to the size. I loved the encore GX and I’d love to have it as a secondary vehicle some day but Im a big dude and I just couldn’t get the want for a truck out of my bones. My friend has a new trail blazer and loves it! I hope you love your new vehicle. They really are nice and those engines will go to be so small
Houston, Niagara Falls, Boston, Rhode Island, or Tennessee- doesn't matter where Scotty is, the content is always great (and sometimes we get multiple locations in one video)!
Cant wait for the half-liter, single-piston engines to come out on those huge SUV’s lol
one piston engine go cart and/ or mini car , weighs next to nothin, little
rinky dink wheels/ tires......the future......want / need one now......
And i giant turbo from a Peterbilt to make the power.
Or 0 liter, solid state motors...
They are on a good way to do that. There are already 1.0 turbo 3 cyl suvs out there 😂
🤣😂
As a GM mechanic, I can verify what Scotty said about " leak issues with GM vehicles " is dead on accurate. I can't tell you how many headliners and rear glass replacements I've had to do due to leaks over the last 2 years. I want that scantool Scotty! :D
As a GM mechanic... what's your honest thoughts on the 1.2l 3 cylinder turbo in the 24 trax???
@@lindsieshaver1 I want to know this too. Thinking of getting the 24 Trax or the Corolla Cross
@@FearNoEvil_556just get a toyota dont get GM
Tahoes at $70k leak like crazy. Chevy forgot how to make sunroofs.
@@lindsieshaver1 Never even heard of it till you mentioned it. I haven't worked for a dealership in 2 years ( I work for an independent shop now ) and have never had a 3 cylinder GM engine pass through the shop I work at.
I test drove a Trailblazer the other day because I wanted to see how these Inline-three engines run. Not sure if I would ever want one, but I was surprised how much power that small engine could produce for the size of the vehicle.
I just bought a 24’ Trax and couldn’t agree with you more!! It doesn’t surprisingly well and it’s a very quiet smooth engine, the 6-speed they put in the Trax is a really smooth shifting transmission.
@@braden2233and the trax has the smaller one. I also have the 24 trax and it performs way better then you would expect based on the specs on paper. If they are made well having a 3 banger makes sense. Cuts the cost to make the car, and you can pretty much get the same if not better gas mileage. I dont need my daily driver to be sports and go fast. It just needs to drive good. Get me from point a to point b. The smaller dont bother me. Im seeing so many people say its too small and its not safe for highway travel and its a load of bull. I remember when everything came with a v6 even most sedans. Then it was 4s and now its 3s and 4s
@@MaNtIcHoRaOfficial Picked up my '24 Trailblazer 3 weeks ago. I love it. I don't care what everyone says about it being slow. In toronto where the highway doesn't even surpass 50km/hr, this thing is smooth, quiet, comfortable and cheaper than any competitor on the market. Thanks Chev for making me feel like a king in my $30k car
"And here's some bonus questions and answers." Always nice to see Scotty back in Texas.
Scotty: Rev your engine
CZcams Viewer: I did what you said and now it isn't working right
Scotty: Bring it to my shop
Next episode: You should never buy this car
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣 Best narrative fiction 2021 my bud
Yah, if you research his vids backwards, LOL.
Reply, because scotty's not psychic
Sums up the whole Scotty Kilmer channel
Lol ! Tru nuff!
I have a Encore GX, which is the Buick equivalent of this. Same engine. I’ve got the 1.3L 3 cylinder engine and it’s surprisingly peppy and I love the ride.
Scott, I’ve husbanded a 1l geo for 16yrs(and continue) I’ve arranged for my remains to be recycled/re purposed on an icy sidewalk.
I am stunned by your review of this 3cyl car.
Watching this vid should help us all to see less as more
I think that Scotty is the only mechanic that gives free information 😂
I would say it's 60 40 split about 40% of the things he tells you are false like these trail blazers really aren't built in korea it would cost a fortune to import these to America from Korea. They are either built in canada or mexico. In the video he says only the engine is built in mexico more like the whole car🤦♂️.
And is honest. My wife’s cousin is a mechanic and even he tried to scam me.
@@Back_door_bandit_98 I’m not talking about this video specifically in all his videos he gives the viewers good information
Condensation is no charge and part of the standard equipment.
Free Distilled water.
@@victoreous626 OMG a great feature!
@@thinkingimpaired5663 Top off your coolant and battery.
Just run a siphon line from your overflow tank to your headlamps. Added benefit is if your coolant overflow tank overfills your headlamps act as emergency storage tanks.
@@victoreous626 oh my! all the responsibilities of being a car owner. I'm searching for synthetic turn signal fluid
Hey Scotty, I liked your video. It was refreshing to see you NOT dump on the Chevy Trailblazer but instaed leave a caveat for ten years down the road. Keep up the great entertaining and educational videos!
Wished there was more people like Scotty. Making informative videos on CZcams to help people out and teach them about vehicles, maintenance, tools , etc
Wife told me the other day that you are a fantastic speaker. She says your presentations are always interesting and entertaining. She is a former college speech professor. She would know!!
😂
He used to appear on tv
I am wondering when U. of Illinois will be granting Mr. Kilmer than honorary doctorate -- for the real one he finished in service to humanity. (e.g., us)
Scotty is not only informative, he's also entertaining. 😎😁
Man is a gift from Gawd!
Great positive comments about the 3 cylinder Chevy, am laughing and will be waiting for the updates in the years to come, can’t wait
I love that you are impartial in your observation of the cars you check out
I like that he gives cars credit if it’s due, and isn’t 100% biased all the time.
Lets revist in 6 years
@@diegogomez5225 opinions change as do products
He’s not biased. He tells the truth
@@robertandrewww im talking about reliability if a car dont last it not an opinion .looks good and all that but if it dont last dont matter is what im trying to say
My only hope is that by the time Scotty gets up there in age they will have created a cheap effective way to upload his consciousness to a robot so he can make videos for us forever but his real soul can go to heaven 🙏
Good day Sorry, am a big fan I really dont miss any of ur videos. Thank u for all ur sacrifices u give to keep us updated in knowledge. I am in deep appreciation.
I always enjoy your videos. You have helped me many times with my repairs.
My family used to have a 2000s Trailblazer and it was constantly breaking down. After that car, we never got another GMC car.
My family had the Same situation. 1993 Pontiac Trans Sport SE and Pontiac station wagon problems. After those we had a 2002 Dodge grand caravan and a 2006 Volvo V70 they ran like a clock.
@@bjthedjdutchdude1992 My family got a Volvo S60 and it made us never consider a European brand again. Only Toyota for us.
I can tell you tons of horror stoires of GM cars my family have had since the 90s, I never have and never will own a GM car
My 2004 envoy got to 265,000 with replacing one water pump. Envoys were awesome
@@baronvonjo1929 Honda is just as good.
I wish GM had the quality control they had in the early 2000’s because they are making some nice looking vehicles
My 2001 Malibu was great til right when I got it paid off and the thermostat stuck and blew a head. Bye bye 5 years of payments. F Chevy.
They look great when new, but where I live you don't see the GM Korea/Daewoo models hold up very well, and their depreciation is awful.
Early 2000's? My 87 Buick gn is a more fun and reliable than any vehicle they've made in over 30 years and when it does break down it takes pocket change to get it running again unless something is wrong with the turbo but the same turbo has been on it since the mid 90s
@@MarkPalmer1000 GM Korea cars are garb. My 2015 trax 1.4L Turbo was made in Korea. I think the turbo or some pump went bad which caused it to leak oil and overheat with only 67k miles.
-
If you want a GM car
Get a Silverado with a V8
GM never had any good quality control. I owned 2 brand new cars in the past, a Chevy Cavalier Z which engine broke while I was still making payments and a Chevy Astro Van, fuel pump broke on me in the middle of Times Square on a Friday during rush hour at 36, 032 miles. and right after that the transmission had to be replace.
Scotty, you are my go-to mechanic. Your videos help me anytime I need information about DIY car repairs. Thank you!
Also, I have a manual transmission 2000 Honda Civic with 247,000 miles. I've put about $3K in repairs and maintenance the last 2.5 years. Only major repair was changing the clutch. Just changed the water pump. Do you think the engine will last me atleast another 50,000 miles? It's my work car, I drive a total of 90 minutes everyday, highway miles.
I love Scotty, learned more from him on 6years than I ever did from my old man
It's very comforting to know that Scotty will be making videos for the next 10 years
was wondering if ANYBODY was going to catch that!!! (that big smile/giggle treating us as he said that)
For once, Scotty might like a car from the "junkyard"! 😂😂😂
and no Chevrolet dealer meme picture! SUCCESS!
Scotty dropping car knowledge, always informative and entertaining...
Scotty you have been providing inciteful and extremely useful overviews with in depth discussions of problems and challenges. Very well done and we appreciate it! Please keep up the excellent efforts!!
I love watching Scotty: "What's the secret to getting a decent GM vehicle? Get one with 3% or fewer parts made in North America." 😂
Like harleys
Yet some Toyotas and Hondas are some of the most American-made vehicles you can buy. 🤣 What have we become?
We have become a globalist society
I have been listening to your information for a couple of years now. You can't replace experience. Thank you.
Hi, just bought a brand new Buick Encore with this same driveline. Really impressed with the quality and quickness. Interior is beautiful and the vehicle is loaded with technology. Thanks for you video.
I love ur videos, they are really good and informative. I still watch them and I am not even close to being able to drive.
Always love these Scotty vids. It's great to watch someone who actually knows what he's talking about, providing a more in depth review of a vehicle, without prejudice even if it isn't his preferred style/make/model. Keep it up Scotty! You rock!
The way you express the information is a joy.
Love your videos I am always forwarding them to my 4 boys & 3 daughters all drivers
Mr. Kilmer, you are one of a kind. When you analyse a vehicle you are brutally honest. And yet if a producer that you've been critical about comes out with a good car you're gracious to commend them. That is just pure magnanimity....!!
Also you never keep anything to you. You give us all your knowledge and for free. Once again Thank you sir.....!!
And also your such entertaining to watch.....!!
Scotty...Finally you made a video on 3 Cylinders...PLEASE make some more
That's not American. Lol
Hey Scotty, I'm watching you from Syria
I'm really happy that I've discover your channel recently
God bless you
"You can really get long things in here", best line in the video. Scan tool seems cool too!
Good work Scotty! Learning quite a lot about cars from u. 👊🏾
I remember when you were on TV when I was a kid. Glad I found you as an adult!!! The best info!
Scotty being nice with the owner next to him
Either that, or he is getting pulled to the dark side. :)
Even people stupid enough to buy American vehicles need direction.
@@highjinx6519 true
Thats what I was thinking
@@highjinx6519 I was stupid enough to buy a car from a premium german brand.
I have my 2nd one of the new TrailBlazers, 2022 love it, been buying and driving Chevy for 60 years.
Great video Sir! Love your humour and honesty. From Dallas TX
Scotty I’ve been watching you for years. You have given solid advice and I agree with you only time will tell in this crossover.
The Peter parker face when he said you can put long things in it lol
is that who that is? lol

Always enjoy your sense of humor, oh yeah and your car knowledge too!
Enjoy listening to your CZcams and learning more each time I watch your CZcams.
Scotty, thank you for making honest, informational, and highly entertaining content! I love watching your videos.
I'm not an SUV guy but I like that it's fuel efficient
Always pleased with your information you give out.
I have a base model with the 1.2L engine and its awesome. Gets 40mpg and for what it is that is incredible.
I am stunned. GM has you almost rooting for them. Time will tell, indeed.
Looking forward to the re-visit of this car after 10 years :D Love the videos!
3:10 pm Sunday, 6/18/23,good presentation, I just bought the 2023,trailblazer rs,love it,and learned a lot today from you,thanks.
I definitely love all your videos, I listen to them at work all day... I wrench on cars all day
Please never stop doing this!
This is my new favourite channel! Where was this all my life? :D
Love your videos. Very informative. Keep going Scotty.
I'm telling you the truth. I wish I could have you with me on my current vehicle search. Your videos are absolutely amazing.
I used to drive mostly GM vehicles for years, only because my dad worked for them. They used to make decent vehicles but it seems like the really went downhill after the government bailout.
What a shame.
They were terrible before the bailout.
That's WHY they needed it.
My 1995 GMC Jimmy SLS 4 X 4 has 427,000 Km with the same engine and transmission!
Love your videos Scottie. I’m a diesel mechanic and I do work on cars too. I’m an old school mechanic and your videos are very helpful to keep me informed on the newer vehicles. Keep up your awesome work. Love what you do.
Scotty you've saved me alot of money. You a national treasure man. Thankyou for everything 👌🏻
Great video Scotty. Always straight forward information
My first car was a 1963 SAAB 96. It was a three cylinder, two cycle, front wheel drive. It vibrated so hard that it had a small shock absorber from the head to the fender wall just to dampen the vibration. You had to go under the hood once every two weeks just to tighten down everything. It got 22mpg when normal cars got 12 mpg.
Also happens to be one of the best sounding engines ever made
Ring ding ding !!!
Gotta admit love your honesty.. I gotta buy a car soon and your info helps..
I put hankook tires on my 91 K2500 a couple years ago right before hunting season, I love them, I've never got stuck in the mud and they're quiet on the highway, very smooth!!!
Scotty is the greatest learned so much from him over the years. Thank you scotty for what you do you really helped me save money especially during the pandemic. Loyal subscriber of yours and will continue to be. God bless you Scott
Have a great Friday, Scotty!
Amazing videos as always...thank you for all the information..:)

May god allow scotty, to be here in 10 years to show us what happened to that chevy trailblazer. 🙏
Should take less than 3 years 🤣
It's gonna be a rolling pile of junk, wait no, a stationary pile of junk!
Scotty is immortal
Without Scotty I honestly wouldn’t have nearly as much car knowledge. You’re much appreciated and honestly a god send
I always enjoy your channel. Another great one, turbos scare me a little tho, dont they cause more heat and wear?
To late to win the scan tool, but Scotty, you always come through with great content and understanding. We sincerely appreciate you.
Keep up the content Scotty! Saving people thousands doing their own maintenance. Love it
Love watching the videos! Very informative and funny at the same time 😀😂
I absolutely love this vehicle, and great commentary. With the 1.3L engine, and the good looks, both inside, and out. This vehicles looks more expensive than it is. Thanks for sharing..
I’ll definitely be subscribed for at least the next ten years now! (Honestly this is my go to for automotive information)
Happy Friday, Scotty!
Happy Friday!
When I've come to the end of the day and realize that I haven't learned anything new, I pull up a Scotty video and problem solved.
Me too
You made me feel better about my 21 trailblazer i just bought 3 weeks ago. It only has 35k miles and so far seems really good. Mine is the awd variant with 1.3 turbo. I was going to get the 2024 trax but no awd was a deal breaker unfortunately
Love the videos Scotty, I would definitely love that scan tool 🙂
Scotty, my daughter just bought this suv, and she loves it. Hopefully it keeps on running the way it is. Greetings from Green Bay, Wisconsin.

It's summer season in India, temp at minimum at 95F, we watch Scotty all day long.
ReadMyComment. I guess there isn't much to do in India, temp at minimum at 95F, so you watch Scotty all day long.
Hi, just want to say your videos are great & educational, thankyou !
Hello and thank you!
I just got my new 2023 Trailblazer RS Awd two weeks ago and love everything about it, it has power, speed and really good gas miles for a small SUV. It's smaller then most SUVs but big then most cars.
Man I thought I knew some stuff about cars but since I’ve watched Scotty recently it’s like unlocked a whole new level of knowledge for me. 😂
