Thank you for sharing!!🙏
No matter what i do stearing wheel is much harder turning right
Bro pls come back your vids are low key helpful!
After searching TH-cam and watching 2-3 other videos, yours is the only one to go over the reset lock to lock procedure. Thank you for being Thorough!
No good. Didn't work for me
Also note. This can happen when you disconnect your battery. I had to reset mine
yk what kind of tint you got? im lookin for that blue look
Guess I havent done the reset right to left..... gonna do that once I again go to clean my plugs. Your engine bay looks immaculate. Cant hate a well maintained factory engine bay
proud of you boy
I see this video is a year old. Do/Have you had problems with your engine flooding due to you seemingly turning it on and off fairly quickly? Or perhaps you're warming it at idle for 15-20 minutes before revving/shutting off? I rev mine upto 5k+ and shut-off mid-rev while flat footing to try and exhaust as much as I can to keep my plugs from sogging.
Just noticed the rebuild video from 3 months ago. I hope you didn't cook your rotors :s
No, ive never actually flooded it before.
And the rebuild video is just an extra motor i bought
@andrewcook3371 thanks for the reply.
gonna try this tomorrow wish me luck!
My battery been unplugged for a year and now left steering is slightly hard but turns right normal 2009 rx8
If the reset didnt fix it, it might be a bushing, or ball joint issue. I assume that the car was sitting since the battery was unplugged. May need to be worked in a little bit.
Looks good bro! You have an instragam?
Not a car specific insta yet
The smell on my midpipe is so strong how’s yours?
Mine is pretty strong, but I dont mind the smell so it doesnt bother me. Alot of my friends and people who see/smell my car always notice it though.
Nice work, thanks
Okay 👍
Most helpful video on TH-cam thank you so much!!!
น้ำมันที่เติมไปใหลออกใต้เบาะทำอย่างไรคะ
I've tried this and it didn't change anything unfortunately. - still stiff steering right and pulls to the left. ( Wheels aligned ) Any clues on other fixes? I think there are other plug I can clean but are harder to get to.... might be the next step before a rack replacement.
What got aligned on the car, was it a full alignment? Or was it just toe.
Is that a Shinka ?
No just 2004 GT
This does not reset your power steering. This calibrates your DSC.... DSC is Dynamic Stability Control which is a different system. I don't run DSC on our race car, I do use power steering.
Yes but if you disconnect your battery or anything where the power steering isnt working great this can help sometimes.
This is about Mazda 6 2009 ; ) but do you know if its possible to change steering torque sensor on the rack only? Or maby do some service on just that instead of change the whole rack? My steering is hard to right but easy to left. Thanks
Sounds like an electrical problem, im pretty sure you can change the sensor by itself, but its kinda hard to get to without removing a bunch of stuff
@@andrewcook3371 yes maby the sensor only but they dont sell it by itself.Need to change the whole steering rack. sounds crazy. Maby the diagnostic will tell something?
Skip to 3:49 for Midpipe sound
Nice 👍
Good video, Thanks!
Thanks
Love the fresh content, def subscribed this was sooo helpful!
Thank you
Porque sale el combustible en la rosca de la tapa de la pompa de un Mazda rx8 2004 no está bien instalada o qué cosa ayúdame es todo
Would love to see short ram intake on her
Short ram dont really work on these. The engine bay so hot that you just suck in really hot air. Even most cold air intakes will make you lose power. The only cold air intake that gives a power increase is the aem or the mazdaspeed which are the same thing.
Great video, thanks for awesome info... After cleaning the 2 bottom tray connections with silicon spray, my 2005 RX8 Power Steering still malfunctions. Though a bit stiff, I can still drive. Does anyone know if I will damage PS if I drive with faulty PS ? Thanks everyone and blessing!
I dont think it should damage the power steering components or just steering components, most cars are made to be able to drive without power steering in the event of an emergency.
@@andrewcook3371 ok great info thanks 🙏 somehow I took some PS fluid out of reservoir with pump and refilled. Days later my PS returned and now has worked for 2 months. Maybe it was low. Cheers and blessings 🙏
@@acemoto2319 power steering fluid? It's an electric system
@@michaelleader8300 Thanks for correction Michael, I got PS to work after driving for awhile. Maybe I had loose battery connection. Thanks again and continued blessings 🙏👍🌞
This video is going to blow up 💯
Nice 👍
Thanks, “Andrew”
Electronic I got it
Hey Andrew should I put connector grease on my connections after I use electronic cleaner
You can. This will give a better insulation. But not necessary
Hey Andrew isn't there a way for me to just check my power steering fluid
Because it has electric power steering, there is no fluid
Also check blinker fluids :-)
Quick question in so I'm doing a swap on my RX-8, and when I bought the car the guy never gave me the key. When you turn the key on to the second position for the lights to turn on in the car does your power steering turn on then? Would the key immobilizer keep it from coming on?? When I used to have a s2000 and you would just have to turn the key to Second ignition and you would have power to your steering.
My power steering only engages with the engine running
Can u do the reset first?
Yes
You didn't tighten the hose clamp at the throttle body. wth
I think i just forgot to put it in the video
AY YOO this was so good...👏
What happens if you snap one the plastic things when removing the hoses?
One of the plastic clips?
Or the tubes?
Maybe use small plastic zip ties if plastic anchors are not replaced. Usually they keep hoses and wires from rattling and damaging moving parts.
if anyone ever needs this - if your steering wheel is kicking violently when you touch it the phases of the power cables are swapped! I have just finished converting my rx8 from right hand drive to left hand drive and for some reason RHD ones have the phases reversed!
Great video thanks
Wait if you didn’t have power steering wasn’t it hard to get home?
Yes, It was
noo i have one and i always drive it like that
@@pedroparker8407 How long can one drive with faulty PS? I have same issued and wondering if I can continue driving without damage. Thanks Pedro
Should be fine to drive without it for as long as you want, just an inconvenience. Most steering systems are designed to work without power steering in the event of an emergency.
@@andrewcook3371 thanks
Was this a school channel before?
Yes
@@andrewcook3371 why you reply late
