      I’m in the UK and you’re the only car channel in the USA I trust. Harry’s Garage in the UK is good, but he’s mostly about luxury cars, though he does bikes too.

      I went from knowing nothing when i got my license at 25 to being fairly good at car repairs thanks to Scotty! Never had to bring the two vehicles i own/ed into a so called real mechanics shop and i am 36 now(First car was a 95 altima 18 years old at the time). I have done(On my 2010 subaru non cvt) rad,alternator,drivebelt,drop trans pan and filter, control arms,wheel bearing, steering knucle,sway bar links and bushings,outer tie rods, diff oil,trans cool lines, and more i can't remember. TH-cam and a haynes manual($1200 in tools so far also) will save you so so so much money thank you again Scotty Kilmer!

    11 years ago, i started to tampered with my broken Hyundai. I was unployed, broke, with 3 years old child to raise! Your videos teach me allot. I have been my owne mechanic for 11 years. All of your recomendations checked out! I now one a Honda Fit. Small, practical, reliable easy to fix. I saw one off your videos about them, and follow your recomendations. I was going for a Toyota, but it was above my budget. Your advices allways checked out. Thank you.

    In a country that's been taken over by crooks, left, right and center, you may be one of the last honest men who isn't trying to trick someone out of their money. That alone makes you a National Treasure. I'm your age, and remember when the fix wasn't in so completely. Thanks for being there and helping. I'm no mechanic but have worked on cars for fifty two years. By the way, I finally had my valves looked at in my 2007 Honda Accord (4 cylinder). All the exhaust gaps were still spec, but the intake side gaps needed to be tightened up a little. Not bad for 349,000 miles. .

      > I'm no mechanic but have worked on cars for fifty two years.
      Ditto - sort of. I was working on cars 52 years ago, and would and could do pretty much anything apart from structural welding. I remember when you'd open the bonnet of a car and see 2 wires running to the engine, and when you looked down you could see the ground.
      Fell out of the habit of DIY when for decades I had company cars, and now I'm too old and creaky to want to lie on concrete with spanners in my hand.
      Plus the cars have got too complicated to work on. I don't have a "classic" car, and for instance with my current drive the *EASIEST* way to replace a headlamp is to jack it up, remove the wheel, remove the mudshield from inside the wheel arch and have at it from the rear.
      But then I remember my Dad trying to fix a dropped drivers door hinge on his 1950s Sunbeam Talbot, and think that in some ways it was ever thus...

Months later, my son also lost his car in an accident, and bought an older Honda Accord that needed some TLC. Watched some of the videos in this channel and fixed it up well. He likes it more than his former newer car. We needed another car and chose to also get an older Honda Accord. Thank you for your channel.

He owns a 64 Belvedere, with a slant 6, so that ought to tell you the quality he's after. He does own a 2017 car (won't tell ya), but only after doing a lot of research and having 15 yrs as a bus maintenance tech at the local transit company.
