All great tips. When I bought my '19 Civic, the first thing I did was get a set of Husky floor mats to protect the carpets then in the fall of that year I had it protected with Corrosion Free. The next Spring I had a Ceramic Pro coating put on the the entire car including the windows and wheels. Just had the Corrision Free applied again a couple of weeks ago. I get it done, this was the third application, every fall even though it's good for 18 months between applications. This past Spring my detailer here in Halifax, Hooked on Detailing, did the maintenance work to keep the warranty for the cermaic coating up to date and will do that every Spring for years to come. I tend to keep my cars for 10-11 years and want every advantage I can get when I go to sell it. You'll get more for it if it's for the most part rust free and the paint is in good conditition.
I couldn't agree with you more Scott! You also get to enjoy a 'new' car for the entire time or ownership. You take care of the car, and it'll take care of you lol
I bought my first brand new car back in April of 1994 and after that, I bought three more brand new cars. I still own the last two cars, Toyota Corolla 2006 and Toyota Yaris 2010 and I'm planning to keep those two cars as long as possible. I did a couple things with each one of my cars from day one. The first and most important for me is to replace the engine oil and oil filter after the first 1000 kilometers or 700 miles. Second engine oil and oil filter replacement at 5000 kilometers or 3000 miles. After that, I do oil and oil filter replacement every 5000 kilometers or 3200 miles or maximum every four months, whichever comes first. I take down disc rotors, I clean them and I brush lightly an anti-seize compound at the back of the rotors where the rotors meet axle hubs. This way I don't have any problem removing brake rotors. I live on West Coast so I don't know if this would have the same effect on vehicles from Rust Belt. I also like to replace manual transmission fluid and coolant every two years.
I love this channel. I miss the Z. As I’ve just bought one in the last month as my daily, you’ve helped shed some light on the upkeep. Would love to see you with another z34 again!
Hi can you make a video on how to install a new valve stem seal on a CR-V 2006 step by step process and my question is do you have to rotate Pulley with the chain on ? , on every valve I’m just confused in that part .
I’m about to get a used car this weekend first thing I do everytime is change trans fluid, oil and break fluid idc what they say if I get it changed then I at least know
As a car detailer any quality rubber floor mat will save your cars carpet and most likely keep it looking new as long as you vacuum underneath them every once in a while!

Avoiding deer. Probably #1. Lol
That's some good advice 🥲
Miss your videos, man. Especially your Z videos.
weather tech mats probably the best one for a newbie car owner
Oil catch cans for turbo engines will help with longevity. Also rubber revitalizers for bushings to help them last longer.
Do you recommend a specific product?

@@martin1649 . Thanks!
The ceramic coating is a great idea for Toyotas. So many hoods and roofs can be saved!
So true! PPF goes a long ways as well 👍
Welcome back brother....nice Corolla
Thanks brother! 👍
Do you still have the mini?
Bro, thank you so much for the recommendations! I'm always very impressed with the level of detail you put into your vehicles! Cheers!
My pleasure! Thanks for the love 👊
Bro whats going on with the 300hp 9th gen build???
Corolla?
Best choice!!
They're pretty good looking too!
The Corolla has won the JDM hatch war. Definitely gotta take care of your car. If you take care of it, it will take care of you.
You hit it right on the money!
Damn melon good video!
🙌🔥❤️

Happy to hear that brother. Congrats on the new whip! Hopefully I'll find another one
Yes sir 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

I just bought a 9th gen si 14 with 92,000 miles first thing done was oil and transmission fluid change
That's awesome dude! Very good first thing to tackle on a used car 👍
Thanks for the video excellent recommendations
My pleasure! Thanks for the love 👊
Hey mate, great video !!
Any chance you can do an after market head unit replacement for a Mitsubishi triton (2008-2011) ?
I’m about to get a used car this weekend first thing I do everytime is change trans fluid, oil and break fluid idc what they say if I get it changed then I at least know
I do the same! It may be crazy, but it is nice peace of mind 👍
What else would you do to a new car?
Plastic seat covers from the 1970's. Just kidding. Lol.
Sound deadening!!
Oil catch can is a must and upgrading spark plugs
What's an oil catch can?
And what do you mean by upgrading spark plugs? Isn't that more of a car mod?
Is the corolla in the video your nes daily
It is not. I have my eyes on another car. This is my neighbour's new car and he wanted me to help him out with keeping it looking 💯
You’re awesome bro but can I get some mini videos 👌🏼🙏🏼
Soon! I promise lol
Excellent video! I would maybe add an upgraded battery and block heater for the colder climates as a lot of new cars don't come with one
Depending how bad this winter is, that might be an upgrade for next year 👍
What happened to doing any sort of content on the MINI ?
It's coming John! I promise lol
big fan just wish u did the na build with they accord every one builds civics lol
dude, dont worry. you own a toyota a car that will never die
Milan Mustacci 🙃
LOL 🐛
Do those rubber mats smell? Like rubber, I mean. My car is a 2014 and it still smells like the brand new car smell [faint, but it's there].
It is hard to tell if it is the mats or the car itself. I know the Weathertech's do not
@@milanmastracci Thanks Milan. Keep up your good videos. Love the interaction you have with your viewers

So true!! A good vacuum every month or so does wonders for the interior 👍
Milan: What does it mean when motor oil is found in the radiator coolant reservoir? My beloved 1993 Civic CX.
It means it's not really supposed to happen
@@martin1649 You'd make a great idiot light.
i know this is random but ur mustache is cool
Dude the porn stash was distracting..good vid tho
LOL thanks Pete!
