Even the 'professional' drivers from next village (who know the situation very well) don't care at all about traffic safety. Why should they? Never seen any police nearby. That's how a one way road is turned back bi-directional.

Belgian driving school at traffic lights
มุมมอง 3905 ปีที่แล้ว
Pay attention to traffic light and cars left hand, stops first for red, at last moment comes through red. I had my eyes at that moment on the green light... Best of all: it's a driving school, with a professional teacher next to the student. The student is the one that did the right thing: stop for red. If you wonder why I'll teach my children how to drive a car ;) 20 February 2019

DEFA block heater tested

Always wanted to know how longue you should connect? Wanted to know when your engine reaches normal operating temp? Have a look;) Done on my Honda Accord 2011, 2.0 i-VTEC petrol. Modelcode CU1. Defa is a 230V/550W, pn 411241. Mounted in the engine block, in direct contact with coolant. Mounted myself a few years ago.

I used my defa heater for the first time this week and on the second day my battery was dead. Does this have anything to do with the battery?
No, there's no connection between the 12 volt and mains. At least, if you only have the heater (resistance). Must be coincidence.
@thedreamfactory6964 ok thanks 👍
This was useful, thanks!
Here’s what DEFA found is cost effective. From lab tests measuring many parts of the engine, fuel consumption and emissions. 15 min, 10°C 50 min, 5°C 1.5h, 0°C 2.5h, -10°C 3h, -20°C Temperature-to-time diagram. Page 10 www.defa.com/content/uploads/Documentation/Downloads/Technical-information/Electrical-preheating/Technical-Handbook-EN.pdf Lab tests. Interesting read! :) files.defa.com/wup/bilder/DEFATestReportDEFAEnginepre-heaters.pdf
Hi, I bought a car with this heating system defa. it only heats the car 5 days a week...do I need a remote control, how do I reset the system? You know? Thanks
I don't have any remote control. It's plugged in with a mechanical timer on the mains. Or I plug it directly in the mains connector when needed.
There's also no reset whatsoever. I don't know what you mean with resetting the system.
I do not understand. Since I bought the car in 2017, when the cold season comes and I put it into reverse, in the first year it didn't work on Tuesday and Wednesday, then Wednesday and Thursday, Thursday and Friday...now it doesn't work on Monday and Tuesday. Can't do a reset?
he translated it wrong, it's not when I put it "in the reverse" what I wanted to say is when "i plug to the defa"
@@jujuyo-yo3142 There's no timer integrated with my system. I can't program anything in the car. My timer is external.

No need anymore in your Tesla… All standard!

Da zal nu ook ni meer nodig zijn Geert! (Tenzij je het HEPA filter van uw Tesla ook zelf wil vervangen…
Thank you. If you have a 2012 Acura TSX, you need the 194 bulb.
This is the way for the european accords. Thank you so much!!!

What will happen if I will plug all night long or for days my heater?
It doesn’t work on mine
Same have a 2009 cu2 this menu does not exists in mine ?
How do I plug my defa block heater to an extension cord? It was a weird prong that I cant find a cord for online
It is online but its really expensive
Thank you 🙏🏼
Thanks man, was looking for this cause I maintain my car myself..
I bought the same kit on a 2013 TSX and it blew my fuse so the lights don’t go on anymore what could be the reason?????
Put a new fuse in
Interesting video, thank you👍🏻😃
Great video, very much appreciated! Now I‘m pretty much sure I need a DEFA heater for my daily driver. Thank you
Really nice video with a lot of awesome well documented information! Thumbs up for that. Now the drop into reality... For goodness sake, why all the trouble to install it, considering you're in Belgium! A few times every decade it can be really useful in there. Other than that, let's be honest it´s just a nice gadget! LOL 😂 For clarification I´m writing this while on Norway! ;-) Cheers
You're right, you don't really 'need' this in Belgium. But it is a very nice gadget. I do use it almost every day though. Car drove meanwhile 325.000 km. I' convinced it has a positive influence on engine wear.
This video convinced me to build-in a DEFA heater. I experienced more or less the same. Very useful - thank you.
Thank you for this great video. Btw, j´aime bien votre accent anglais :-))
Ha ha, like your comment! But you know, ik ben Nederlandstalig, Frans is tweede taal hier in Vlaanderen 😂
Excuseer mij, mijn vriend 😜
Reset worked. Thanks. No annoying sound when starting the car now.
Check out this block heater tech from Canada. Looks like it takes remote block heaters to the next level - th-cam.com/video/xNkw16_rdQY/w-d-xo.html
That's just connector technology, no blockheater. Maybe i'm missing something?
@@thedreamfactory6964 You're right, it's a quick-release for drivers that forget to unplug their block heater (which happens more often that you'd think). It's also a power outlet that is waterproof, wifi-enabled and allows you to monitor & control energy consumption remotely. Thought it was pretty cool when I saw it
Good job!
This helped me so much! Thank you!
Thanks, very helpful indeed 👍👍
firstly thanks for your posts for this car. i have the same but wagon version 2012 model automatic at 115.000km on the km clock.. you have over 220.000km if im not mistaken.. nicee!!! i have few questions.. if you be kind enough to answer... 1- how long you owned the car? 2- what engine parts needed to be replaced on the way befofe 220.000km (start motor? alternator? waterpump? sparkplugs ? belt? aircon. comp ? how they performed the the way?) 3- is ot normal to hear slightly low whining voice while acceleration between 0-60 hardly noticable,,? many thanks for your sharings and keep us updated with your videos :)
Hi Emrah, nice to find another Honda Accord owner! Right now I'm at 283.000 km and the answers are simple 1) I own the car since 2012, it was 1 year and 9 months and had 62.000 km then. It's a 2011 modelyear, pre facelift. 2) Nothing at all, it's a Honda, you know :). Sure, spark plugs are part of normal maintenance schedule and are te be replaced every 120.000 km. 3) No, not normal. You have AT, has the transmission oil been changed (twice already)? I do maintenance 100% exactly as prescribed in OEM maintenance schedule.
@@thedreamfactory6964 thank you so much for quick response.. nice to know all the stuff.. i haven't changed auto tranny fluid yet n im not sure if its been ever replaced.. lots of wrong info on the net about it.. some workshop says 3 lt fluid is gonna be replaced n some says whole 12 litre has to be changed.. am very confused..
whould be nce to see how did you install ths unit on your car.. also i wonder how it perforrms with original speakers.. since i have the wagon version 2012 model 2.0 petrol automatic with premium sound system inc. subwoofer n 10 speaker,, will original speakers work with aftermarket unit... ? if works how they perform....
Ah, you have the Executive version, mine is Elegance... Sound system is completely different. With my speakers it performs a bit better than with the OEM radio. But I made the switch mainly for the smartphone navigation. I can use Waze or Google maps now on that unit. If you want a PDF with how I installed this, give me your e-mail and I will send it to you.
@@thedreamfactory6964 saloemrah@gmail.com is my... my Accords trim level called Lifestyle Business Limited edition here in Finland.. since we have gravel type of asphalt here i found the car a bit noisy at high speeds.. i may change the tyres soon as winter arrives... What size is your wheels n tyres?
Done, pdf's came your way. Tyres: I have two sets. The original standard 16 inch wheels that came with this Elegance trim (205/60) and the Honda Accessories HACE 18 inch Delta wheels. 225/45. 16 inch is with wintertyres (Nokian WRD4 if I'm not mistaking), 18 inch are summertyres Michelin Pilot Sport 4. As all is original for the wheels, you can check sizes in the COC that comes with your car.
I would like a PDF too please

Kun je eens een Watt meter aan de block heater doen (Bij de stopcontact bedoel ik) ben wel benieuwd hoeveel stroom zo'n ding verbruikt
Ha Maurice, dat is niet moeilijk hé. Het element heeft een vermogen van 550 W, de spanning is 220 V. P=U*I. Dus I = 2,5 A. Maar wat weet je daar nu meer mee? Het is een kwart van een strijkijzer... Twee grote TV's... De prijs per uur die weet je al voor je 't koopt. 1 uur aansluiten is ongeveer 0,12 euro.
Hi i have huawei p20 pro how do i get it to show on my ford ranger via andriod auto
Hi, Google blocks all non official apps since approx 1 year... Sorry, but you can't see Torque any longer on AA screen.
@@thedreamfactory6964 thanks
My 2007 Accord CL9 uses the same license plate light housing (I think it's the same for all CL7/CL9 2002-2007 Accords). It's funny how the owner's manual tells to remove the trim panel from the outside to change the license plate light bulbs. Anyway, nice video dude!
Hello. Where is the heater installed? Regards Leonid
Easy: comes in place of the water draining plug in front of the engine.
Nice video. Is that an aftermarket rear view camera you have on the trunk lid beside license plate lens?
Yes, it's a Pioneer.
@@thedreamfactory6964 Do you mind sharing some daytime pictures of the camera installed with me? I am looking around youtube for ideas on how to mount a camera on the trunk and came across your video. From my research, it looks like I can mount the camera onto the garnish (the piece above license plate) covering the license plate lenses and trunk button? My email is: hello@hoarthur.ca Thanks!
@@ArthurHoHoHo Done, with some extra info on the radio, dashcam, etc... Enjoy it.
@@thedreamfactory6964 Sorry I had an issue with my email and you may have received an error. Can you send it again? It should go through now. Thanks again! hello@hoarthur.ca
@@ArthurHoHoHo I did not receive an error. Sent again. Can you confirm you received e-mail?
Hey! Dank je wel voor die goede film. Kun je er een tweede drijv video maaken "without" preheater? Ik denk er oog aan een DEFA gestern vor mijn Golf 5 TDI. Groetjes uit duitsland!
Hallo Phil, een grafiek zonder heater zou er zo goed als hetzelfde uitzien, maar beginnend op een lagere temp (ong. 30 à 40°C lager) en er dus langer over doen om 90°C te bereiken. Mocht ik een grafiek van de olietemp kunnen maken, dan zou je ook een snellere bedrijfstemp daarvan zien met heater / zonder heater.
How much it cost you to install Defa, did you install it yourself or you drive it to a mechanic. I am planning to install, but here they gave me price of 780 euros.
I installed by myself. Grand total approx. 150 euros (whole kit and coolant). 780 is not realistic. They don't know what this is? Much experience: approx. 1 hour work. First time 2 to 3 hours (amator level).
Dankjewel voor deze leerzame video. Zelf zit ik erover te denken een DEFA Blockheater te installeren op mijn Citroën C5 1.6 e-hdi. Is zoiets moeilijk om te doen?
Hi, Anfahrt, de moeilijkheidsgraad hangt voornamelijk van het type motor af. Aftapplug op blok aanwezig of niet... en de bereikbaarheid onder de kap. Ook je eigen kunnen en ervaring. Ik vind het niet 'moeilijk', maar ik heb er ondertussen al drie gemonteerd en al heel wat aan auto's gewerkt.
Top vid man, thanx!
Such a beautiful car.
Iam you’re biggest fan
Seppe, I love u so much :)
My Defa heater heats up to 60 after 2-3 hours. 3 hours is the recommended max usage so i try to leave it plugged in for 2,5 Hours. Thank you very much for the video! I have found out about the same behaviour.
A shitty video
Fantastic ! Saved me a trip to the mechanic ! Keep up the good work.
