  • I can't believe it, I've only gone and bought another VW Polo from Copart But this one is different. This is going to be a surprise for my son. Will he like it? Can I fix it? What better way to get my son involved, he can repair his own car.

    Top bloke, top dad. Your son is going to cherish this forever. Well done buddy!
    I did something similar for my daughter’s first car. It didn’t need much work, but the memories you make.

    What a Legend you are. Every one who owns a vehicle. Should know, from an early age. How to do some basic maintenance which in my opinion is a must. For them to know and to do it. Admittedly your son is going (hopefully) to go above and beyond that level. 👍👍

    • @RevivingSalvage
      @RevivingSalvage  Před měsícem

      Thank you so much for your kind words! I couldn't agree more. Basic vehicle maintenance skills are invaluable and empower us to take better care of our cars. And yes, I'm definitely aiming to instill a passion for automotive care in my son, hoping he'll take it to new heights.

    Lovely gesture this, I got the same car from my sister when she emigrated and ended up keeping it, coming up to five years owning it now! Not as pokey as my wife's later 1.4TDi but perfect for your son. 😊

    • @RevivingSalvage
      @RevivingSalvage  Před měsícem

      Sounds like you've had a great run with yours! And you're right, while it may not be the most powerful, it's definitely perfect for my son. Thanks for your kind words!

    I've done the same for my daughter, a cat n 2015 fiesta. Rebuilt the front end and Started changing the wet belt today, hope to have it done by tomorrow. Not an easy job for the drive way though!

    • @RevivingSalvage
      @RevivingSalvage  Před měsícem

      It's great to hear about your hands-on approach to car maintenance with your daughter. Sounds like you're tackling some significant tasks too! Best of luck with the wet belt change, and I'm sure your hard work will pay off.

    Great stuff. An excellent way to get your lad motoring and learning some skills whilst at the same time keeping the first car expenditure down.

    • @RevivingSalvage
      @RevivingSalvage  Před měsícem

      That’s the plan hopefully so many youngsters haven’t got a clue, including my own son lol so hopefully he can manage some basic mechanical maintenance, that will hopefully save him some money later on

    Not sure if you already know this you probably do but I been told in the past that engine oil in a diesel will always be black quick way to check if it's clean is dab a bit of the oil off you dipstick onto your fingers and if it goes between the little ridges it's not too dirty

    • @RevivingSalvage
      @RevivingSalvage  Před měsícem

      Checking the cleanliness of the engine oil is definitely important for diesel engines. I appreciate you sharing this handy method, it's always great to learn new tricks for maintenance.
