Mr. Kilmer? Have you ever think about having a channel on Spanish? I am not saying that you have to do it since it is difficult to have a translator and more like how things are right now. But it would be so good for some that only speak Spanish and are new to this country. With great information and teaching that you give translated into that language, it would be wonderful and even save some.
What do you think?
This one saved me a lot of time
what if I see this and my engine is new
I wish I was scotty’s neighbor.. it would be more fun to watch him live than on TH-cam 🙂
That would be awesome!😁
You'd wake up in the mroning hearing him shout "this is a piece of junk if you buy it your stupid"
@@Bobby-cm7vu 😂😂
@@Bobby-cm7vu lol.. you also get to hear him shout “it’s a rolling pile of junk” “don’t walk away but run away”
@@Bobby-cm7vu that sounds like a fantastic way to wake up every morning.
Scotty's short videos are a blessing.
I am WAITING for Scotty Kilmer to tell me HOW TO BREATHE next!
LOL
Cause he talk to damn long 😂
You should cover that on direct injection engines black deposits around your exhaust is normal. They all do it from brand new.
That is why you try and stay away from those cars if you are concerned about reliability, and the carbon build up on you valves and pistons
Yep. Its not oil. Its soot
true, i have a 2017 accord 2.4 and since i bought it new i noticed that carbon exhaust although lightly
Thank you 🤣👍🏻💯
I have a scion and it shoots out the deposits on a cold start. Burns a lot of oil!
I don't know how Scotty produces 3 videos a day, 7 days a week!
We are very fortunate viewers!
I was thinking the same thing,I'm like damn! This man it's a MACHINE!
Because he has snippets of knowledge from all sorts of videos in the past he can create shorts from. Also; when you have over a million subs, chances are you’re hiring 1-3 video editors to help do the hard work.
Remember that most of the difficult stages of anything is the editing and producing aspect. Talking in front of a camera is easy for Scotty. The rest is on his team to sort out.
It’s a blessing even though I’m about a week and a half behind on his videos.
The documentary style ones are so good. I wish they could be better differentiated from the rest through the thumbnail.
@@Ngcarson1337 that makes sense
Scotty, can u make a video where u show all things (or top 10 things) one should look at when buying a used car?
This test u showed, to see if a car is burning oil, could be one of the things one should look for!
Ummm I think he already did a long a$$ video about that
@@mohamedhosini2103where
Most people passing off a clunker, will do a clean oil change first. I go straight to the COLOR of the Coolant, AT fluid, PS fluid. If they cared enough about those, maybe they cared about more obvious stuff too? Get a cheap OBD scan tool and interrogate for faults. Insist on a long drive, to reveal DTCs they may have cleared. Smooth IDLEING says more about the engine than does acceleration. does it idle smooth & quiet. Put a bobble-head-doll on top the engine. If its a dealer, does your state law require it to pass emissions?
All cars leave that black residue in the exhaust. It's called carbon. I'm a mechanic of 30 years and have never seen the inside of an exhaust pipe be clean unless the car is new or the exhaust is new.
Very well said
The question is how can you fix this problem without replacing the engine. My 2005 F150 drives well except for this black smoke. I need help. Thanks
I think what he was referring to was black slime vs like a hard type of residue which would be carbon in the exhaust pipe
Not really, l got a nissan sentra 1.8 2004 automatic, l clean the inside of tail end pipe and believe me is clean in fact some rust but not black stuff. How about that?😮😮😮
Literally what I'm thj king right now before I do it and freak myself out. I'm like, an exhaust system that's not dirty?
Hey Scotty, i used Chemtool B12 on my 2007 Camry (piston soak - 2oz for 4 hr intervals, over 1 day) and reduced oil burning from 1qt / 900 miles to 1qt / 2400 miles. If it hasnt gotten to bad then B12 works !
I have the exact same car. Just got to check the oil regularly and then I’m all good. I did buy it with a replaced engine so I’ll probably be good
I had a 2009 xB ( 2.4 ) 158hp Tc 160hp Toyota would fix it for free if the car was under 150k. Yours is rebuilt- so no issues.
Is it a good ideas to switch oil viscosity to compensate for burning oil ?
My car has been doing this since new. It's a 1.8 VW Jetta. The tail pipes were chrome. Within a month they were black inside and outside.
Now all the people selling their cars will clean the exhaust pipes hah
LOL and polish the paint with WD-40 for the sale as well (covered in Scotty's wd40 video lol)
guys.. you can't hide it so easily, someone who looks for it will find, before you buy a car, you go for a test drive 15-30 mins, so the exhaust pipe will change won't remain clean.
Oh man...I wanna say our dear Scotty here is America's no.1 and most loved mechanic!! The people's Hero!!
Got my scion xb 2008 due to scottys advice online . Best purchase ever.
Everybody wishes we had a neighbor like Scotty
My 06 Subaru impreza 2.5 burns oil. Scotty is right on about the exhaust pipe soot.
Had a 2009 Scion tC with the TRD package. The Toyota Racing Development package came with lowering springs, wheels, control arms, upgraded interior and an exhaust. It was 5spd and I loved that car but it burned through a quart a week and I sold it when the clutch started slipping. All too common with those cars.
Oh good, I didn't find any soot. Thank you for letting us know about this.
All GTIs or GDI engines will do this from early on in their lifetimes. My GTI burns about .5L every 1k miles. Very very normal being 12 years old
My car has the 2AZ-FE engine and it burns a quart of oil every 600 ish miles.
But it still runs pretty well with almost 165k miles
“Low tension” engine oil rings is the main problem on all major vehicle manufacturers. Major cause of oil consumption… Scotty has covered this
Much appreciated Scotty. Now I've got to go check my 2019 Toyota Tacoma trd Sport V6 🤞🤞. I'm curious about Castrol edge 0W20 extended service 24,000 kms.
If ring pistons are the reason,then car should also reduce coolent level?if coolent level remains same then what can b expected issue ?bad sensors can b the reason for reducing oil and smok?
So what do you do if you have this problem, I have a 2011 Chevy Equinox
I thought turbo cars blow black smoke sometimes because of unburnt fuel. So turbo cars will probably always have black residue on the exhaust. Right? Like say a 2019 honda accord since its turbocharged. Is this correct?
great question!
2 brand new turbo cars I've had both have soot in the tailpipe.
Your burning oil if blue smoke comes out.
I've got a 08 Camry with the 2azfe 2.4 oil burning engine, still running at 227k. It burns a lot of oil. About 2.5 qt every 3k miles. I'm just riding it out till she completely goes out. I have enough money to buy a 2021 in cash. But if it ain't broke. . .
How did you get it 227k? Very frequent oil changes?
Yep. Exactly why I change my oil once every 12 months. Have a GDI engine
My tC is a 2008. Does it also have faulty piston rings? My tC has ~70,000 miles on it and the paper towel test is almost clean. The small amount of black looks more like dirt than burnt oil.
I don't drive much, maybe 500 miles a month. I use about 1/2 a quart a month so and a clean exhaust pipe so I am thinking a small persistent leak.
The Toyota AZ engine have low tension rings and the burn oil over a period of time after dirt clocks up the rings and it destroy the cylinder wall.
What is it with faulty piston rings? Is Takata making piston rings now?
How can you tell difference between oil and regular soot?
I have DI engine with a turbo though it doesn't burn oil cuz i check often i still get some black soot at the tailpipes
Scotty what are your options if your vehicle already burns oil? I know there’s no magic solution, but I’m already using full synthetic oil, changing every 3-4 thousand miles. My car burns tons of oil, what should I do to maybe get my engine to last a little longer?
Restore engine restorer might help, it's in a gray can, the contents of the container is blue, pretty good stuff but it's not a rebuild in a can, depending on the maintenance if your engine and what kind it is it could be a simple umbrella seal job or it could have blowby (umbrella seals is still a real big job tho)
My 2003 cadillac sls Bruns oil but it was cheap and has 100xxxx miles so I got a good deal
Is that black soot or black oil? It looks like soot which I believe is due to an excessively rich mixture.....
Is this applicable to diesel engines?
I have a 2009 Pintiac Vibe and its burning oil. I will still do the test....
SCOTTY IS MY HERO!
So how would u prevent this or fix this? Just wondering
Same for diesel?
I wonder if Valvoline’s new Restore & Protect would help the 2.4L’s rings…
Got that loop perfect. Well done.
isnt normal for vehicles to burn oil over time? i have a 2010 kia sedona with near 200k. even with normal operating conditions, won't the tail pipe get grimey?
When changing the automatic transmission fluid (just the fluid in the pan), should this be done when the fluid is warm/hot or cold? I plan to use the replace what came out method, but when the fluid is hot, it expands and may measure wrong, as I put cold fluid back in.
Cold
Just try to measure how much you took out, that should get you high enough on the dipstick when you go to check it, remember to check it with the engine running and trans up to operating temp
This is on a 2017 Toyota 4Runner without a dipstick
Scotty spittin' straight facts.
Would it be clean if it doesn't burn oil?
Scotty I have a p0420 code in my Saturn aura what do u think it may be ???car has rough idling an poor fuel economy.I even tried laquerr thinner an cat clean didn’t work check engine light just keeps coming on an car sounds whiney when I drive
If it’s dry and black does tbis mean it’s not burning oil?
If you wipe it almost all vehicles should be lightly black I wiped my 09 scion tc with 150k miles and its bairly even black spots. Very light, almost as if its notmal
It might be burning oil?? Or it's leaking fuel through the injector making it burn rich??.😊
I have a 408 stroker ls with a supercharger, it does have an exhaust leak. And the enegine is burning oil. What do you think ?
I'm in the market. Thank you for the info.
My car was squashed like a bug two nights ago. A huge tree came down on it in a storm. The town is still without electricity. I'm thankful it missed my house and my neighbor's house, but my poor, poor car!
This started happening to my car recently. Is there anything I can do to fix it?
Usually it just means your rings or valves are worn out .
Depending on the car , if you just check the level and keep the oil level good , it should be ok for a while .
But the burning oil can also start to clog up your Catalytic Converter ( if Your car has one )
Hello!how about if exhaust only corbon but no slimy,
So my VW CC has it and blows black smoke. Is that oil burning or unburned fuel? Or is it running rich?
Your probably running rich are you tunned? If you are I highly recommend getting a catch can which would also help in reducing carbon build up
@@scottroberts5529 I did my oil change, I changed the spark plugs, coils, camshaft sensor, and pcv engine oil separator and still get bad gas mileage and black smoke coming out it. I also have a misfire
What kind of fuel are you running? Regular or Premium? Also, 2.0t or 3.6?
@@lukeheffernan I have a 2.0t and previous owner used regular but I’ve been using premium 93 and some Lucas additive to see if any carbon build up goes away but nothing. I’ve been using premium for a month now
@@boah9520 Yeah you may need a carbon cleaning. Do you go through a lot of oil between changes?
I just checked my 2010 Chevy Silverado 1500 it’s got the good 4.8l motor & there’s nothing it’s clean as a whistle!
If it is diesel you should start to worry if the towel doesn't get black...
I recommend putting that towel/rag on the end of a stick, or pole, etc, as some astute sellers will clean out the end of the exhaust pipe.
I used to use my old bong brushes 😂
Is the black stuff a good or bad sign?
Scotty! I need your help!!
I have a 1995 oldsmobile v6 engine that i had to change the oil and coolant on but when i got around to putting the coolant into the car it wont get sucked down from the resevoir
P.s. im very new to car repair
Maybe your radiator cap isn't sealing, sucking in air instead of antifreeze. Or hose has a hole in it.
@@jeffreydevoti7000 it started to pull coolant down but very slowly and itll take awhile to start pulling.
I think the system might be really clogged up?
The car has been sitting idle for a couple years id say maybe even longer. Just recently i started to try and get it running smooth
@@jeffreydevoti7000 the temp gauge wont go passed halfway should i drive it a little to try and get the flow and heat going? It took about half of what i need to put in of coolant
@@thefool_1164 might need a new thermostat, but cars can be like people, need to get moving around to get back to normal.
This guys the best dad ever
With the Scion Tc and xB it was from 2007-2010. If your Scion or Camry had oil burning issues, Toyota would fix it for free if the car was under 150k miles-
Wow really? I’m considering purchasing a 2008 Scion xB but I’m so hesitant because I heard about this issue
No way, even though the cars are so old?
My 2016 camaro smokes even though I changed the oil 4 times a year . Could to much gas cause the smoke .
I will do that tomorrow !
That is the way things are.
Scotty`, doesn't all diesel cars soot some?
snap on tools # 1 show us your tool box collection
You got a nice front bumper.
Every vehicle I've ever seen or had has this black soot in the exhaust pipe..no matter what if it's got over 10k miles on it guarantee it has this black soot in the exhaust. The oil burning hypothesize sounds great and true but at the end of the day its not specifically caused from burning oil, it can be caused from burning ANYTHING
I have a question….please help OK I was driving the car on the freeway right before I got home white smoke started coming on my tail pipe and I seemed that I lost power.There was smoke coming out the front I let it cool down.I drove it seem like if you wanna call him before. Please help me let me know
Scotty is like the David Attenborough of cars, but wavy arms.
I have a rotary..it's a design feature
ESPECIALLY on the VW
Scotty for a PRESIDENT!!!!💪💪💪
Thank you Scotty for your show!
What if its a diesel ?
What about the Toyota 1.33 Dual VVT-i engine? (1Nr-fe)
and if you put the paper towel in and it comes out clean and then you use a stick to get the paper towel in there further and it comes out oily that means the seller pre-cleaned the end of the tailpipe so it would appear okay when it's not.
Tennessee looks very peaceful
I think spot in the tailpipe could also be a sign of a rich running condition.
Drove a 2013 Chevy Equinox I got stupid cheap because it was my parents. Never got to 100k miles and it had a rear main oil seal break (under warranty luckily), VVT solenoid went bad, fuel line leaking into the oil, and a cracked exhaust manifold. Oh yeah, and it was a year that that model burned oil like crazy. I will never get a GM vehicle ever again. It’s only Toyota, Honda, or Mazda from now on.
mazda is partnered with ford
@@johnlarsen4455 Not anymore. They’re with Toyota now and make their own engines and transmissions.
@@johnlarsen4455 my Mazda 3 2010 runs like a clock even though still with Ford
Thanks for the tip 👍
Thats funny he said its cause its burning oil i have a ford fusion and it never burns oil and the exhaust tips are like that mine a 1.5l gdi
So is it good that its burning oil? or Bad?
Bad. Means oil is making its way into the combustion chamber via a leak in piston rings etc. Oil's purpose is to lubricate the engine, you don't wanna run out of it.
@@LiamsGotThis thank you

This man really cool . Greetings from Turkey :)))
So what do I do if I have a 2007 that is burning oil like crazy
Carbon build up does the same thing
scotty asserting dominance in the thumbnail
Isn't this normal after the exhaust hasn't been cleaned for a while?
Black deposits in my exhaust is called soot from burning fuel in the engine 😉.
Actually black is usually over fueling.
Kinda like the new ones
yeah, 2001 Corolla burned 1 qt a week then I had to get rid of it in 2011.
How do I submit a question to Scotty?

i think he meant gasoline engines but you're right diesel is black
Hi I got a 1973 chevy c20 and it seems to shut off randomly anyone might now what it is
My 2005 Honda Accord 4 cly is always using oil and it don't leak so I check my exhaust and it looks the same ??? What should I replace ?
Check the pcv valve
@@TheJulienlauth is there anyway to tell if it's bad by taking it off
@@Scatpack23 just run it keep check on oil every engine over 75k miles burns oil
@@Scatpack23 If it has sludge or a lot of carbon deposits. changing the oil regularly can prevent it from failing prematurely and normally they can last a long time. Since they are cheap though it is oftentimes easier just to replace it and see if it gets better.
