I cant say this eloquently so I'll say it from the heart, love your damn lessons, I'd stay late after every school day to pick your brain. More please.

Came across your videos recently and have been really enjoying taking the rust off my knowledge! Recently I have been thinking about dampers and while I understand their basic function I don't know exactly what makes a "good" damper and what traits more expensive ones have that cheaper ones don't. I would love to see a video on this subject eventually, but I don't doubt whatever you make next will be extremely informative either way. Thank you for your hard work!

E46 or e39 touring diagram is a cool detail. Lovely car. Great video, as goes without saying.

I can't express how much I appreciate this channel. It's pure gold, and I eat up every minute of these videos.

I just feel sorry for the poor French man driving the BMW , he isn't used to the motion because he normally drives a interlinked hydraulic suspension vehicle ...

thank you Mr Mees

Your videos are pure gold! Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us.

Anti-dive only affects the driving feel but doesn't change the maximum braking performance? Does it affect the car's characteristic? Does it make the car more understeery or oversteery when the car is under braking?

I think for the layman, backspacing is simpler and easier to use when buying wheels for a particular appearance. That aside, assuming you can place the suspension however you want, change or adapt the hub bearings to suit, and that the fenders weren't a factor, how does changing offset affect the dynamic grip of the car? I've heard that a high positive offset (IE flat face wheel) gives a lot of side bite, which is good for controlling oversteer on the rear or reducing understeer, I suppose, if it were done on the front. Is this true, or is wheel offset mostly detached from handling characteristics as long as it isn't extreme IE dually style positive offset or 2-3 inch backspaced wheels.

Thank a lot, Huibert! Brilliant channel with high-tech content explained with a simple words. As Einstein said if you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.

Where did you get the front ride frequency of 1.2 Hz and rear ride frequency of 1.3 Hz?

This channel makes me feel like a genius and a moron at the same time

I want to reiterate what Moneyshifters said, absolutely fantastic, massively appreciate your informative video/s, thank you. Any chance you might speak about anti-dive? Learning anything suspension related feels as good as money in my pocket. I had thought sub-frames were designed for production efficiency only, thanks for teaching, more please.

Okay, so we have offsets and how they interfere with the contact patch centerline. -- When I'm steering and the contact patch of mechanical trail moves along an arc, how does that affect steering feel?

I totally appreciate the engineering in the system and the concept that it's perpetuating our aging driver's education procedures. I'd just as soon use regular non-vacuum assisted Hydro-Mechanical brakes, and then have the regeneration on a split brake pedal. So, when you press the far left edge of the pedal, you're on regeneration, but if you exceed the threshold of the primary pedal travel, it simply actuates the hydraulic system as intended. Andrew Tate is right about driving.

Whaoa, This is a very good video answering a ton of questions I had when looking at Tesla's S and X suspensions. These cars are known for «eating» rear tires due to an heavy negative camber on the rear Integral link suspension. Some companies even sell adjustable camber arms to correct this and reduce camber from 2.5° to 0.5° expanding a lot tire life. Could you elaborate on the impact of this rear camber change on handling and comfort ?

This is a very neat description. Thank you.

Very interesting!

Link check.

Great job. I understood. I get the impression you know a lot more but its nice how you keep it simple so the rest of us can understand it. You seem sincere in trying to accomplish that.

the brake by wire system is fine, until it breaks........ and those that are repaired by unqualified mechanics......i worked at a car dealership in an area that is near a collection of 30+ wrecking yards, and have seen first hand the janky crap people cobble together and resell to unsuspecting drivers.... also: then there's the DIY crowd, that won't pay a trained and qualified repair technician to replace whatever malfunctions on their vehicle, they'll find a TH-cam video on how to fix it from some other unqualified hack.... as a retired 25+ year Master Automotive Technician I've come away with a few things: 1) there are repairs on some vehicles that some folks just shouldn't do. 2)there is always some unforeseen problem in a system after it was designed- which is why we have safety recalls..... what prompts those recalls? usually it's because someone died.... let that sink in......

I've seen control modules on modern cars spontaneously reboot while going down the road. Brake-by-wire is a *terrible* idea. When drive by wire fails-safe, you coast to a stop and keep your steering authority. When brake by wire fails-safe, you're going to abruptly stop in the middle of the highway, which is nearly as unsafe as having no brakes at all.

Well it's fine todo that. What I don't see is why we need Steering By Wire as that is adding more parts that break than less, the only real benefit I can see there is less positioning restrictions but currently that isn't done at all.

Your videos are the best. Every time someone asks me how something works in a car, I check if you have a video on it. I know I'd never explain better. Thank you so much for making these!

Best automotive channel on TH-cam, dont stop making these.

Thank you for clear explanation sir. Not fluent in english, but i still able to understood what are you saying.

I’ll give it a watch before I disagree lol in case you can convince me

Great video! Thank you!

I'm a retired physicist and college physics instructor and would like to compliment you on your most interesting and informative videos, clear and succinct.

Great videos. Got yourself a subscriber. Would like to see a video comparing independent vs rigid axle suspension.

Amazing

Fantastic, thank you.

Wonderfully explained 👏. Thank you

What would be, for you, the best system to use in drag racing on tracks WITHOUT GLUE, NO PREP, that works above 100 AS or below?

Do you happen to have any online software recommendations for designing a suspension? I see that you use 3D models and maybe a 2D PowerPoint slide for your explanation. I'm currently reading a 2008 college dynamics PDF to help get a better understanding of the dynamics of suspension. I'm planning on putting an inverted slider crank or McPherson strut in the front suspension of a 1953 Chevy truck. The Donor vehicle is a crashed Bmw. I noticed this video link below had several possible sites to help look at the dynamic kinematics points. th-cam.com/video/Qm6ZfHAG7Ss/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-ceJwTSaKLTHwEfu

Really useful, the explaination is brilliant. Ps. I love the GT40 in the back

Huibert you are my goat

What about triangulated 4-link rear suspension? Lower links are parallel to the frame, Upper links are "triangulated" i.e the axle mounting points are close together approximately at the center of the rear axle (above diff housing). This system doesn't need Panhard bar or Watts links.

Can you please explain why this happens

I understand that it dampens. But why do off road trucks position them being mirrored? And they go over way more bumps than a regular street drive. It makes more sense to me to mirror the rear shocks rather than stagger them. Please I need help understanding

Thank you for free-sharing your priceless hard earned knowledge! I hope me and my co-generation car-guys, take the knowledge from you and guys like you, and pass it to the next generation of car enthusiasts! P. S. Not all those who look for free knowledge are created equal! Sometimes it's not about having or willing to pay, it's about not being able to do transactions internationally for being sanctioned/banned from international banking system!

Hi, could you please tell how you build a knuckle wireframe? I understand it is a 3d sketch, but I can't figure out what constraints you used. Thank you.

I can’t believe it. A no-nonsense, unemotional and well informed video about wheel spacers? Thank you.

what about putting a stiffer rear sway bar in a car?

This is the S550 rear suspension. It is also the leading reason why the rear end seems so vague under performance driving thank to too many rubber bushings.

Next time put your mic some place else so we do not have to hear you swallowing

How are u able to create the ideal curve in the first hand, using the 4 parameters, pls tell
