มุมมอง 1.5K2 ปีที่แล้ว
An update on the Passat, as much as I do love this car, it has been a pain in the arse recently, so I put together a few of the issues in this video in case it can help others. stay tuned as in the next video I will be trying to sort the bonnet release which has now also failed.

this video shows what to do if the door lock mechanism is seized on a Peugeot 205. this appears to be becoming a fairly common fault as these cars age.

Valet PRO Bilberry Wheel Cleaner Test
มุมมอง 3.1K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Hi all, just a really short one this time, just a quick test of my favourite wheel cleaner by ValetPRO. this isn't a sponsored video I just find this to be a very effective wheel cleaner, it is acid free and unlike most other acid free wheel cleaners, it smells nice too.
BMW E92 320D Service
มุมมอง 1.7K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Todays video is a bit different, we service a BMW e92 320D coupe, this a bit far from what I normally do on here and its the first time I've done a service on a car like this. I'm by no means a professional, just helping out a friend.

Vauxhall Astra F (MK3) 1997 timing belt change
มุมมอง 2.9K2 ปีที่แล้ว
So this one turned out to be a bit longer than I was expecting. In this video, I change the timing belt on the Mk3 Astra, something I've been wanting to do as I didn't have any history with the car, so didn't know the condition of the belt.

Do you know how to change gearbox oil on my microcar virgo 3. And what oil i need.
Thanks so much, massive help ❤️
Recommended dilution ratio for this?
1:9 1BILBERRY WHEEL CLEANER and 9 for water
the springs fell out, I don't know where they belong, can you take a couple of photos, thank you
Excellent informative and very well explained, Helped me understand and work my machine so thank you very much.. Keep up the great work mate 👍🏻
Hi @KernowGarage do you still have this car?
Garbage 🗑️ no end of problems with this machine ,pump jets knackered,leaks everywhere,wont start,will start,then dies after 5 mins of use,total rubbish ,from what i gather most of the parts on it are from china not usa, probably why its crap
Cool, got a 1.3 Dynamic myself. The system can't detect the USB that's plugged in. Any ideas about that?
Had my 750i for 4yrs. The 1st engine seized after 4 uses but got a new one shipped free of charge. The fuel tank cap constantly leaks, so never fill it up or transport it in your van/car with petrol in. Uses oil fast and goes black after 20hrs of use so change your oil regularly. The Lance fittings are crap. No matter how tight you tighten them, they leak ( yes, I've also tried ptf on everything but alwaysleaks ) The plastic wheels broke so had to get none original hard rubber ones. The instruction manual is next to useless. When you pull the pullcord, even with no pressure, after 3 pulls, the recoil rips your hand off. Change the male plastic hose fitting for a metal one as mine snapped off. All of these problems but the pressure power is great and cleans better than any electric washer I've used in the past.
Yea ive got an issue with mine not unloading properly when you release the trigger on the lance, there's always loads of resistance trying to start, I've taken the unloader valve out and cleaned it, not sure what else to do.
Excellent video!! Thanks very much. I'd decided that I was going to need to replace the catch mechanism - the door wouldn't close after I'd opened it and the 'catcher' just opened and closed. I came across this video while looking for some ideas about changing the mech and decided to have another go. If you get your hand up inside the door, you can feel the movement of the link between the door handle and the mech. A bit of GT85 and a 'help' of the movement of the mech and it's now fine!! You saved me buying a new mech (found one on eBay at £45!!), and the pain of trying to fit it as well. Thanks again!
Looks identical to the milwaukee. Is it a rebranding?
No definitely not, the Milwaukee is more powerful and better built
No definitely not, the Milwaukee is more powerful and better built
I've just got one of these there really powerful I just dnt no how to work the detergent in the front were it goes anyone no
I'm pretty sure these are sold as a JetUSA brand in Australia, looks identical in design and even colour (I found this video looking for a seal for mine), if the hose is connected to the top of the pump and the bottle, mine drawers the detergent when using the 60 degree tip on the lance but not smaller ones, try that.
Mine keeps cutting out and the reel is a bitch the reel up
Hello, I have a question. How hard is it to change locks? Mine is broken, someone at my carrepairshop told me, but it is too expensive to let them do it. I have gotten a secondhand 'new' doorlockmechanism. Want to try it tomorrow. You got any tips?
Shouldn’t you be using 0w/30 bmw recommended this for my e90 320d
And after ditching his Passat he didi no more videos, since Yaris is 1. boring 2. has nothing to work on.
Still plenty to do, not enough time unfortunately, things changed in my personal life. I will get back to the videos soon hopefully
Why would anyone watch a video of someone who can’t find the sump nut.
Many thanks. Are you still happy with it? Is it good to remove weed for paving black
Resurrection of a video: we bought my Nan's 1996 1.6lt Holden Astra 5 speed for my eldest to learn in (Holden- read Opel). Been fixing things here & there, 168,000 well looked after km's, interior came up like brand new after a Bissell machine clean. Radio & Clock no longer work, currently trying to get the aircon fixed for hot Quuensland summers. Solid lil' cars
Do you still rate it a year later bud? I'm after one for work
you might want to put ptfe tape every joint to start with no quality engineering here.
Would the same on a petrol version 320 i?
Does yours overheat or cut out after an hour of use?
no I haven't had this issue, are you using the correct oil grade?
Did you solve the leaking inlet? Cheers
yes I did, i purchased a better hose attachment as the one supplied with the machine was very cheap quality.
@@KernowGarage what hose attatchment did you go for please?
You should cut a hole in a pop bottle for the drain & fill up .works great on motorcycles
that's a good idea, thanks!
Bought one of these today, why I left it so long I don't know, great bit of kit. Would also recommend .
they are a good buy, and if you need parts Wilks will supply it to you free and next day delivery provided your machine is still in warranty.
Very good petrol washer I have one
I've bought this car. Just. In blue. 2012. VVTi. SR. Automatic.
Enjoy, I had this one a year now and done 12,500 miles in it. couldn't be happier with it
Great video, told me everything I needed to know about this machine. I actually bought one on of these pressure washers on the strength of the content in your video- it’s brilliant I’m very happy with it, getting it fired up has a knack but once it’s running and warmed up it’s excellent. 100% better than electric- for those who are interested the engine is a Honda GX200 clone so is infinitely repairable, parts are easily obtained and abundant, plus you can buy an electric start upgrade kit if you really want.
😊The tail pipe for your saloon car is exactly the same as the estate Mk3 Astra
Hello! Do you need to empty the petrol too? If so can you do a video on this please?
you shouldn't need to empty the petrol unless there is enough in the tank to spill out when you are tilting the machine.
Just can't beat letting the neighbours know you're awake on a Sunday morning 😂😂😂😂
No louder than a petrol lawn mower.
Cheers dude.
Cheers for this video. It helped me with my decision to buy one today.

Yes this just helped me out to find out its location. Now I can do the job.
Hi, the new rims you have….. there were thousands up and down the country at Peugeot dealers. Many models were sent out of the factory with those steel wheels (with those centre caps-e.g, the GTX model) but when a customer specified alloys, they were fitted at the dealership and the steels “disposed of”. The black centre caps are correct for the wheels and were retained by the close proximity of the wheel bolts. The centre caps were fitted to a range of Peugeots- 305 for example but were fitted to talbots also-they had a “T” in the middle though. The brakes are bendix. Check the pads are not seized and that that they have the stainless steel springs clips fitted correctly by pressing the edge of the pad towards to centre of the disc- they should spring back…… do NOT attempt to undo the caliper bleed nipple (steel )without applying a lot of heat first. It is likely siezed solid due to cathodic corrosion- fit NEW and apply copper grease to the threads and then proper bleed screw cap. ….. good luck ! I have one of therse stashed….it was my daily for many years…..
That's been driven in the salt and not washed off. Not very well finished for a car that cost over 12 grand new.
I totally agree. I doubt this car will ever see the road again at this point
I've got this job to do, and it doesn't look like fun.
I’ll be honest it really wasn’t 😅
@@KernowGarage the car you worked on was clean with no rust! Not in sunny Scotland! And a crank sensor needs replaced as wrll and if that bolt gets stripped I'm gonna torch my car!
I cut the whole oil cooler off using a combination of angle grinder and multitool, replaced the crank sensor with a Febi unit and everything worked fine for a few months, now its throwing P0341 amd P0344 but crank sensor issues again! I replaced the battery hoping it would clear the issue but its only gotten worse with stability control warning lights and glow plug faults, which are new! Honestly ridiculous situation.
rinsed it off lol you could have blown my shead away with the presure of that washer.
I’m looking to get the same car, it’s 2012 and had done 89k miles I’d that worth buying?
Hi, I would say it definitely is worth buying. mine has just done 80k and is still runs sweet. I've had it a few months now and its been brilliant
Stop the vid at 1.51 and you'll see to the left of where the oil came out there is a bolt . You can see it between the wheel and the engine mounting rubber. This is the sump bolt, undo that and the oil will flow out without having to tip it and it should come out without going on the machine. You will be able to get your tray under there and catch the oil if you raise it up off the ground. EDIT, using the sump bolt also flushes out any swarf that's built up right at the bottom of the engine.
thanks for the info! didn't spot that when I first did it.
How do you empty the pump oil ????
@@francisgallagher2290 Francis I’ve got a TX 850 I no that’s a wilks 750 , but unfortunately you have to tip it like the man did in the video, should be a nut or something but theirs not mate .
🙂Hi friend! On my 205 only de interior door handler does not work, I pull it but does not open the lock system. Does the GT85 in the plastic sort of rings will solve this too? Very thanks
It is possible the metal linkage has fallen off, take off the door card and check all of them and then spray all with gt85
@@KernowGarage Hi friend, thanks a lot for the tip. Could you help me with a question about the brake? I'm servicing the rear brake of my Peugeot 205 Junior 1993/1994, and I need to know what the system would be: bosch, bendix, girling... How do I identify? Very Thanks!
@@almeidasilva05 You can usually tell by looking at the front brake callipers, the brand should be on them somewhere and the whole system should be the same brand :)
Get a funel
Or an additional 'n' 🤣
It’s vented cap don’t fill the petrol too much all will do it
Hi Paul, I was having issues with the cap leaking with the fuel just over half a tank, i found that removing the strainer that comes under the cap solved the issue completely.
Can u get a turbo nozzle to use on block paving
Hi, yes you can get one it's a standard 1/4" quick release fitment, you'll want to make sure the nozzle you buy will be able to take the pressure the machine works at though or it won't last very long.
@@KernowGarage thanks mate I need somone thing for my garden as have a lot of paving and going to cost like 400 for a perfessional anyway so pays for itself
An excellent video, very informative and easy to follow.... well done and many thanks.
Thanks for your kind comment, this means a lot 🙂
@@KernowGarage how much decibel it produces and is it louder than a petrol generator
@@danteerskine7678 hi, I'd say it's about as loud as a petrol generator
@@KernowGarage I think that in terms of loudness, overhead valves engines are a bit quieter than a flathead 4 stroke petrol engine. I own a flathead gasoline water pump and that thing is so noisy that I stopped using it. It annoys the hell out of me
did you get a turbo nozzie with it
Hi, you don't get one with it but it is a standard 1/4" quick release fitting so it should be easy to find one, just make sure it is rated for the pressure the machine operates at
I always forget how old those Passats actually are already. Good luck with the Yaris! Simple and care free motoring
Yea it's a shame, the passat was a cracking car that I will really miss but it's also extremely complicated with many plastic components in the engine bay that are all getting brittle. So far the Yaris has been great if a little underpowered, but it's exactly what I need so I'm not complaining
Brilliant thank you for that
