You will need 3 gallons to drain and fill the coolant in a Granturismo.

That ramp is cool. I have been under my Granturismo all weekend. It is on ramps and jacks and it is nasty and cold… you have reminded me I need to add coolant to my list of jobs…
My 4 post life has been the single greatest tool I have purchased for my garage. They're pretty reasonable to. I think it was about 3200 installed. I have a new Maserati video coming out soon regarding tire pressure sensors and how to program them. I finally got rid of my "TPMS Malfunction Light" on the dash. The dealer wanted a few thousand to repair and I did it for about $230. :)
I would love to see more Maserati GT DIY videos’. Battery replacement to Valve Cover gasket replacement. It’s always informative and inspirational and easy to understand the way you capture it.
Thanks, Bill! I appreciate the kind words! However, I think most owners bring their Granturismo to a mechanic judging by the views these videos are getting.
Does your Quattroporte have the 3.0L V6? If so, check out my Ghibli oil change video that can be found below since it has the same engine. My Maserati Granturismo DIY videos: bit.ly/2Iq7wCh My Maserati Ghibli DIY videos: bit.ly/3105X4D
I've got a QP5 and I'm surprised how easy they are to work on... It's not a cake walk, but it's not bad either, definitely not what I expected. Thanks for the DIY movie!
Hey Dan, I've been referencing your videos as a resource to help me repair my Tigershark 640 jetski. Do you happen to have the owner's manual for yours? Can't seem to find a digital version.
Okay Dan didn’t mean to come at you sideways last time But what I meant was now my car sounds kinda weird and has a check engine light that keeps coming . Says low cooolant temp maybe because it’s cold outside here and once it warms up it’s good . But when I look up it says adding coolant not for this vehicle can ruin the gaskets and other comments such as radiator. My question is does your MASI have a check engine light on since using this coolant ? Before I did this I didn’t have this check engine light. I know that this coolant meets the OEM specs but when I ask a guy(friend ) who works at maserati and has owned 3 does not recommend adding other coolant. What’s your thoughts? Just don’t get why my light is on now it doesn’t run bad but seems kinda of like now there is a lag when stepping on the gas. Thanks Dan ! Let me know . And do you have a buisness phone number by chance ? Thanks let me know
No problem. Why not have you friend take a look at the car? I really have nothing to offer because you haven't gotten the check engine light code read. If you can get me the code, then I can help. He's absolutely right! You never want to mix coolant types and I said this a few times in the video, hence the reason why I flushed it multiple times. As to your check engine light, no I don't think a fluid change would cause that. I think you have other issues going on but now I'm speculating because you didn't provide the trouble code of why the check engine light is on for.
No wonder the dealership is so expensive! 3 hours removing all the parts to get to the task to perform. 10 minutes doing it. 3 hours placing all the obstacles back..LOL

Now I just need a Maserati, thank's for the shout out. Great vid!
No problem! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for posting these videos! My 2014 GranTurismo appreciates it also.
Happy to help!

ah the reason why i subscribed, a brave guy working on his own pride and joy

Thanks for making this informative and helpful video
Nice idea on using on the cardboard. Similarly I have cut cheap paint funnels or cups to direct the flow. Please keep these Maserati videos coming!
Thanks Galileo! Good idea on the paint funnel cups! I might have to try that next time.
@@DIYDanCars Thanks, the idea is that’s reusable for that make/model…keep them Maserati vids coming!
More videos on GT please, spark plugs?
Now if I only had my own lift 😃. But thanks and it seemed very easy.
That's the First Thing I thought too Brother
Great Channel Dan! Hope it keeps growing!
Thanks, J W!
Love it.. so helpful. Just did mine today. I need to turn the heat on and keep topping up
Hey great tip and nice work. Do you have a video on a oil change for a 2014 Maserati Quattro Porte.
Does your Quattroporte have the 3.0L V6? If so, check out my Ghibli oil change video that can be found below since it has the same engine.

@@DIYDanCars actually it does . Thanks for the tip. I’ll check it out.
I've got a QP5 and I'm surprised how easy they are to work on... It's not a cake walk, but it's not bad either, definitely not what I expected. Thanks for the DIY movie!
Where did you find the workshop manual? I’ll need to replace the AC compressor on my GT and a manual like that would be of great help
Send me an email and i'll send you a copy. diydancars@gmail.com
Spark plugs next? 🔌
hi, do you have a link for that maserati workshop manual?
My Idle has increased to 1000rpm. Would a disconnect and your ablove proceedure perhaps reset the computer thus the idle? Thanks.
Dan would you happen to know where the coolant level sensor is?
In most cars they are in the coolant reservoir tank.
You should replace that drain plug with a fumoto drain valve!
That's not a bad idea.
Where did you purchase your garage lift and how much
Direct Lift. It was a tad over $3k installed, but I bought it years ago so I doubt that price is accurate today.
@@DIYDanCars is you Garage a standard house garage. I just want to see if I could get one installed In my home.
@@terrygilyard8364 It is, but I have 11 foot ceilings in my garage.
@@DIYDanCars That isn't a bad price at all!
@@jefferyyounce5372I didn't think so either. It has paid for itself many times over so far. :)
Hey Dan, I've been referencing your videos as a resource to help me repair my Tigershark 640 jetski. Do you happen to have the owner's manual for yours? Can't seem to find a digital version.
Unfortunately I don't have an owner's manual for mine either.
I bought mine in eBay for $9.99
