Hey scotty I bought 2010 ford fusion, previous owner said he messed up brakes while replacing brake rotors and pads. I replaced the master cylinder and bled brakes. However on the front passenger side, the brake line still have bubbles no matter how long i spend bleeding the brakes. Bubbles starts coming out after I stop pumping the brake pedal. When i put everything back together the brake pedal is hard and doesnt move at all. What do you think the issue is?
All the other lines doesnt have any bubbles in them just the passenger front side. Its a FWD 2.5L Fusion.
Scotty, what is the name of the video that you promoted a book written by a guy who teaches you about car repairs
Does Scotty know the Rav 4.1's first Gens use a wasted spark ignition :0. When buying plugs you have to get the ones with 2 grounds to 1 electrode.
got ya!!👍🇺🇸🇮🇱
So many years of great advice and information has helped me so many times. Actually I became a small time mechanic watching this channel
That's a wonderful testament to him 👍
Exactly my thoughts
I dont even have a car and i write alot of tips down so I wont forget for when I do get a car lol
@@xrp313 he's definitely 👍👍 in my book. I don't have a car either but plan on getting one soon. I just save the videos so I'll be able to refer back to them later. He's put out too many wonderful tidbits and I'd have tons of writing tablets full of information to try to find what I need later. Lol
Finding Scotty on TH-cam was like finding a golden ticket!
My hat off to you mate ...the amount of content you put out and the information you give is nothing short of fantastic.👍
It's 2:05am here in Ireland but Scotty's uploads are worth staying up for!
sláinte!
Top O' tha mornin' to ye!
Everytime Scotty says "endless money pit", take a drink!
Here in upstate New York it's 10:30 PM right now. Would not consider staying up to 2 AM to watch anybody's videos.
I wouldn't say that
Here is something no one has ever talked about: The SINGLE key that holds the crankshaft to the flywheel. I had a tow truck and one day the KEY broke. I found the only CAT infield/on site mechanic on Earth that said he could weld the KEYWAY back together; I suggested: "Drill or Mill a new keyway; hell, put in 2 or 3? I pay $1000 to get this truck back on the road this week." He said: "OH NO. Since the first coal burning train back in the 1800's - all flywheels have only had ONE keyway." He did a great weld and it lasted one year.
My question is: "Would adding the extra keyways work instead of the weld?"
My 2007 Camry gave me so many problems I had to get rid of her after 180,000 miles though. My 2016 rav 4 also broke down once. Other than that, have owned a 4Runner, Corolla, 2 more rav 4’s, and they’ve all gone problem free
I bought a 2007 Camry le 2.4l back in November with 161,000 miles. I’ve replaced a good amount of parts and have done a tune up. Pcv valve, pcv hose, harmonic balancer, crankshaft seal, valve cover to intake hose, spark plugs. Brake fluid flush, power steering flush, oil changes. Timing cover reseal and oil pan reseal. I think I’ve actually improved performance since I got the car. It is an oil burner but I can live with it. So far so good and I think it should last quite some time. Hopefully…
@@jarritoo wish you the best of luck with it brother. Seems like you know what you’re doing with it so you should be fine
Weird i have had 4 in my entire life. Never changed nothing more than a water pump. All my 4 cycl have consumed oil like mad tho.
Toyota, like other companies, has made plenty of junk. People act like they’re leaps and bounds above everyone else. Yea they might be a little better, but it’s closer than what Scotty says.
@@lesterparker1594 yeah every brand has those years where they have bad cars. Some brands continually make bad cars ( gm, Chrysler, etc.) but the good brands learn from their mistakes and improve like Toyota, Honda, Mazda, Hyundai. I would say these brands are the only brands I would buy from
Scottie Kilmer is a riot!!! He’s the guy that in the old days all the kids in the neighborhood would spend their time around at the mechanics shop ‘cause he was always right and he didn’t get mad he just got funny! This is the guy who got drafted, went to war, came home and started a family and lived a life of common sense. Nobody ever recognized him for his wisdom and yet everyone who knew him remembered him and what he said.
Amen to you brother!
Hey Scotty I've got a 2013 Camry with 60,000 miles on it just drove 296 miles from Ca to Az and got 42 mpg
Great car. I had one until it was totaled. Got back more then what I paid for the car. Used that money to buy a 2019 Camry with 90k miles. Only thing I had to was put in a recall fuel pump which was free from the dealer. And I took care all the other maintenance.
My 98 corolla is still rockin' 🤟🤟🤟
Bought it in 2020 for 300$ at 165k only had to replace the struts and get a new exhaust pipe, and no other repairs needed.
300$ for a Corolla?? That's a steal!
I have a 2013 Carolla with 267,000 on it. I have only had to replace the alternator at 264,000. I bought it used for 15,000 with 45,000 on it. Best car ever! Take care of it you will have it forever!
We love our 99 Rolla!!!!!! Bulletproof!!!!!
I got my 2000 Toyota Sienna, the nice model, I think XLE? Paid $1000 for it in 2015 and put almost $1000 into the first week, changed tires twice, an engine bone, and a radiator, has 280k on it, never had a problem.
@@Kathleen67. that's freaking awesome I'm going to keep an eye out for one of those.
My daughter's 07 Rav4 is burning lots of oil she bought the extended warranty from Toyota so they suppose to order her a new engine at no cost to her
Congratulations to 5 million subscribers Scotty!
I work for a company that supplies a lot of parts to Harley. We were told that a different supplier made a bunch of bad parts and that they might have to do a recall on the Harleys.
Scotty, you are so helpful to your viewers, I want to thank you for all your help and advice, you save your folks so much money and aggravation. As you know this country has lost its moral compass, we need more honest people like you in the market place. Until then I would tell people to watch as many of your videos as possible so they are educated and are not easy marks.
I have been watching many of your presentations and learned many valuable aspects of many brands of vehicles and this presentation really helped me in deciding which year Toyota engine to avoid. Thank you for your dedication.
Hearing Scotty talking and agreeing with Fortnine is badass. That electric motorcycle video was a great video.
Nice I thought it was him
Ryan is the 2 wheels scotty! Love em both
We're Toyota people, have a 01 Tundra, 2013 Camry, and just bought an 02 Rav4 but it has the 2.0 4 cylinder engine. Every vehicle has over 165k. Never had any issues other than normal maintenance for over 20 year old vehicles. Can't say anything bad about um. Do your research, avoid the bad years, and your in great shape 👍
what bad years?
@@toxichammertoe8696 that is true 😅
I can say the same about ford. 99 escort, 2011 focus, 2011 fusion for my wife, and now a 2021 ranger. Had all of them for 10 years and 200k miles. Never touched anything other than batteries and spark plugs. I’m sticking with ford
i had an 02 rav 4 cruiser and it died from rod knock
@@lesterparker1594 that's a lie.
I own one of those 2007 Camrys, thankfully the previous owner got that oil burning fixed so I don't have to deal with it. I change my oil every 5,000 miles or so no problem.
I have an oil burner :(
Check the oil every 500 or 1000 miles or your going to blow the engine, this engine burns a lot of oil
Love this dude has no filter...🤣🤣 Had me rolling when he said crack head
Scotty's the only one who can drop the "r" word and we all appreciate him for it.
that’s the mechanical term
People immediately go to thinking it’s offensive instead of thinking about words actual meanings
Never knew I needed to hear him say that
@@MaxSchmooze It is the mechanical term and can be used in other situations as well but that won't stop people from going crazy just hearing the word. Completely ret@rded 🤣
Stop being offended by everything
Another great video Scotty!
Lucky me I bought the 2007 Limited 6 cylinder, 2 wheel drive. 340,000 miles. Still rocks !
Just bought a 2022 corolla hatchback! Your videos are a godsend!
Great video sir. Only think I would like to say about the electric motorcycles is they are a rip off. I have been entertaining the idea of getting one - just because it works for my kind of area and the commutes I do. These companies are saving so much money on not having a damn engine and all these other parts, and they aren't giving us a break at all. Like 15k out the door for a slow electric with dismal range? Come on. That's why I never ever got one. Same with electric vehicles. They don't have a damn engine. These things should be half the price - right?! Maybe I'm not getting something here.
The top 20% are willing to pay bullsyht prices for things they want. When it breaks or shows ANY signs of wear they replace it. Prices will never go down. There will be a tiny servant class and a 0.1% ruling class. 70% of the world will be in poverty and subsequently genocided. Welcome to the Global Empire.
Batteries are more expensive then an engine. A manufacturer can build an engine on a production line for less then £1,000 (some even cost less then £500). An electric car battery costs £5,000-£10,000.
@@captinbeyond I can get six bags of groceries in the bags of my Victory Cross Country. A case of beer fits in my bag! And I get close to 50 mpg...
Have you priced out lithium vape batteries? Electric cars and bikes need thousands of them. Cost more than most engines. Oh, and almost impossible to extinguish if they catch fire. But that’s another issue. Anyway, yeah-let’s save the world.
@@BillLaBrie Sounds horrific. Obviously I don't know much about batteries, but aren't all those power stations on the electrical grid? Last I checked, this wasn't "clean and renewable energy." I just don't get it man.
Motorcycle riders also like range.
That HD Livewire is lucky to get 100 miles
2016 Toyota Avalon 100k runs like a Swiss clock nothing close to maintenance so far compared to my Nissan Altima
Scotty, have you seen that the South Eastern Toyota dealers are forced to charge customers for ToyoGuard as a mandatory option. YES! it's actually ON the sticker. Does Toyota know about this? Did you know about this? It's about $3,000 dollars extra in the cost of the car. Toyota's are good.. but not THAT good.
Just picked up a 22 tundra in mar in GA for ,799 for the toyo guard not 3k. So that’s not the case
It shouldn't be 3k it should be 1k or less because Toyotas are worth it especially if you plan on keeping them for 10+ years
I had moderate success reducing oil consumption on my 07 Camry hybrid by using the Lucas oil additive
good tip man. Appreciate it.
Great video as always. Have a good evening Scotty!
The mc noise is behind you. I’ve ridden for 45 years, noise only pisses people off.
I had a “07 Lexus is350 that burns 4 quarts of oil every 3,000 miles. Traded in for 2022 Lexus IS 350, best decision I ever made!!
I've switched my 2007 car to a 2022 car: "Best decision ever"
Duhhhhh you switched your old taco for a brand new shinny car..
I’m considering getting rid of my newer 75k mile car for an older Toyota with less than 150k miles. Get rid of the car payment, have similar reliability and parts would be cheaper. I love my ‘17 Mirage but it’s so tempting to get rid of the payment.
Haha
I have a '02 GS 300. A/C compressor gave out. Looking at the IS but more a 2014/2015. These prices are nuts!
@@t.martin3179 I bought my 2022 is350 for $46k, no mark up with $1k discount. The dealership where I went, there were plenty of ISs around.
hey Scotty! 👋 😊
2014 venza burned oil horribly..smh loss
I’m glad my uncle passed down his Toyota pickup 22re down to me, I’ll be keeping it forever
I got 2007 Corolla made in Japan, same engine? Can't even see the oil on the dipstick, it's crystal clear :O
Damn Scotty Every few seconds new video lol love it though
I have the 07 Camry but the V6 it only burns gas. About to hit 200k.
The exception is Gogoro in Taiwan. They name electric Vespa-style scooters with batteries that you just swap out at kiosks all over the island. No range anxiety and there are so many scooters and motorcycles here they people are used to them and they’re just as safe even though they’re silent.
I think Toyota's are good car but they are also overrated
There is a Harley dealer in every city, it seems. Geez! I don’t really have a problem with them but they are BIG and LOUD. Who could miss seeing one?
no regrets buying my 2019 Carolla 3 yrs and rolling with no major problems and that 38 mpg city rocks with gas prices so high
Installing a dash cam hard wired to your battery with parking mode will do the trick as well, I just installed one in our new car, And yes it also has a Rear camera and records in the dark, The camera is VIOFO A126 dual cam, Get the none HD one it records at 6 frames per second, But with the large size memory chip My total cost was Around $209.00.
Scotty what are your thoughts on reving up your engines
Do it like a scalded ape!
Manufacturers used to warn owners in their car booklets to change oil earlier if they drive in dusty areas. Now they have interference engines that is destroyed if the timing belt goes. Yet for this major expense they don't put a red font warning in the driver's handbook. This is cŕappy; they should issue this dànger warning.
But that would indicate what a crappy car you just bought.
Or you could just follow the directions on the maintenance guide, including changing the timing belt.
I miss my old 1973 Super Beetle did a clutch job, I removed the engine using only two jacks. Jack Smith and Jack Tupper.
2007 Toyota solara owner and sheesh is this man correct!
Scotty, can you do a review on the new 2022 Nissan Frontier? Thankyou!
3:12 - My 2001 BMW X5 has over 213,000 miles on it and running strong! NO issues. It's not an endless money pit.
No, YOURS isn't.
Could you be any more self-centered?
I drive an 08 Sentra and it burns oil like none other. I have to fill the thing up every few weeks . Change it every 2-3k maybe sooner. It’s insane
Scotty, have you heard 2023 Highlanders going to a 4 cylinder turbocharged engine...I think they messed up the Highlander with that engine. What do you think.
He already bashed it
ADVICE FOR CAMERA PLACING: Put them in as discreet of a location as possible, or up as High as possible. People love to spray paint them if they know they are there.
Yes how you get the motorcyclist who annoyingly rev their engines at red lights or keep it in second gear at 35 mph and it's screaming off rev limiter so obnoxious
For the 3000gt, check plug gap.
Hey that’s the green bug I used to own.
Scotty! I seriously need some help!!
I am experiencing hard pulling and shaking bad. Been to three mechanics, one being the dealership. Gotten transmission replaced, new tires, control arm/ball joint assembly on all four AND a new alignment.
What in the world is going on?????
Need more info.
Am from country where yo save for a car u need to work hard for at leasr 2 years ... so i needed an honest advice from an expert like u ..well am going for honda civic 2005 , wish me luck 🥺
I bought a 2007 Camry le 2.4l with the 2az-fe engine back in November,2021 with 161,000 miles. I’ve replaced a good amount of parts and have done a tune up. Pcv valve, pcv hose, harmonic balancer, crankshaft seal, valve cover to intake hose, spark plugs. Brake fluid flush, power steering flush, oil changes. Timing cover reseal and oil pan reseal. I think I’ve actually improved performance since I got the car. It is an oil burner but I can live with it. Any tips on this year Camry ? Going to run it til the wheels fall off.
Sounds like you have done everything. Try a 2011 camry
The 2AZ-FE engine. I have one of those. I was thinking of doing an engine replacement but a junk yard engine probably has the same issue. The car isn't worth the money. You may do the rebuild yourself for the hobby/fun of it but its probably not worth it. There are step by step videos on youtube.
I’m going to rebuild mine, cause the car itself is great, probably cost me 2k all up the kits are 1500 here in Australia, I’d say rebuild it and have fun
Maybe looking for a 2AR-FE is a better move. They made them from 2010 and it has no issue so far.
@@hieulamtri5535 Do they fit?
@@hieulamtri5535 Did a little reading. Its supposedly a different shape and size. Plus needs a different ECU. Better to either live with the leak or get a 2010.
Just get JDM
As a Ninja 300 owner, no, I would never consider an electric Bike…
There is nothing wrong with a timing belt better than a chain because they will wear as most are single row & it's a big job to replace it.
Wow, so true. If my Harley was silent I would not want it.
Scotty's passion for motorcycles is real. We would enjoy young Scotty with the first motorcycle
Rubber Timing Belt? Just take the top cover of it off and put it away. It will release the heat better, and you can inspect it easy when you open the hood to check the fluids.
A million years ago, my roommate had a late '60s Beetle that caught fire and burned up on the freeway. The next day we went down with a $2 bag of alligator clips and some hoses and he drove it back to the house that night. 2 weeks later it was once again his daily driver and got him to work and back for at least 2 more years (we lost touch). He got a new (different) driver's seat out of a boneyard and cleaned most of the crud from the fire out of the passenger compartment, but that was it.
I wouldn't be surprised if that ole bug was still on the road somewhere moving people to and from, today.
Very informative, but I didn't hear u name list bad Toyota's!
I agree with Scotty, we own a rav4 2010 it goes through 10 litres of oil per 10,000 km, and because I change the oil every 10,000km that equates to 15 litres every 10,000 km. I just keep the oil up to it, change the plugs, and cleared out the cat, because it got clogged, I still love the car, I’m thinking of putting a rebuild kit through it down the track, but till then just check the oil more regularly
Hardly Ableson is a souvenir/novelty company who just happens to sell motorcycles, they've been that way for years! Made in China assembled in the United States
😁👍
Love your videos and outstanding advice!
boom.. oh i didn't see him cause they are little and i didnt hear him 🤣🤣🤣
You should display your diamond TH-cam plaque @ 5 mil... lol
I got a 2004 Honda Accord coupe!. Still running like a champ
My wife had an 08 Rav 4 with the bad engine, Toyota replaced the piston and rings at 55k. The trans went at 138k and we sold it 5k later. Other than a bad alternator that the dealer didnt properly diagnose, they said it was the wrong battery, it did us well. The dealer said I put the wrong battery in it and the car broke down on the way home. Who doesnt check the charging system when a battery goes dead?
ATS FUEL OIL ADDITIVES? I'd LOVE to purchase some, but no one, including ATS themselves are always out of stock. You seem to be the only one who has these treatments!
Scotty, Please tell your contacts at ATS to make more for the rest of us!
Spot on regarding elec bikes Scotty. Talk about ‘range anxiety’! I remember my old thumper, got 125 miles till reserve, ur waaaaay out in the boonies, what to do? Same when diesel was a novelty, I had a rabbit diesel, constantly worried about running out of fuel, as their were not many diesel stations back then.
e-bikes seem popular for the campground weekend warriors
You can slow down the oil burning of Toyota by switching from 5W30 to 5W40. 5W40 is a little hard to find and it is only a synthetic oil. I went from 800miles/quart to 1500miles/quart. Performance and economy appear the same.
"loud pipe save lifes" I agree, I hate loud pipes but they are a necessary evil when it comes to motorcycles, it happened so many times to me, I'm gonna make a turn, check my mirros, nobody there, start turning and a motorcycle appears and I have to quickly react not to hit him, that's why I usually drive with both windows rolled down , so I can hear better, a lot of times I don't see the motorcycle but I can heard it and know where it is
There’s a difference between silenced and loud pipes though.
Right on. I have a colleague at work that has an electric motor cycle and I told him they are a bad idea because they are too quiet. I said the same thing, you usually hear them before you see them but not so with electric = accident.
Why doesn't the aftermarket or the OEM provide upgraded belts that last longer? Surely they can put steel bands in them to make them better.
I think they do have steel belts already. It is amazing how long they last as is. Generally they are easier to replace than a chain also. I will only own a timing belt engine that is non interference myself
They all use Kevlar or equivalent, too.
Had a 2007 Cadillac STS with the 3.6 v6 and it stretched timing chains 3 times before it hit 100k miles. Glad it had a 100k bumper to bumper certified warranty.
Ive had a 2008 Sienna since new, I hace been fixing everything that's been braking down due to it being older, I'm a DIY man and have save thousands on repair bills, I just got done with everything except my bank 2 catalic converter which I was going to send for, costing $500.00.
Well last Friday my wife crossed an intersection failing to yield the ROW and nearly totaled it, I believe that I can fix it but probably going to cost a bundle...
After all that work, I think a divorce might bring closure to me...
Thats right you don't see them but you hear them.
Thank you very much for the info and videos!
Hi Scotty, I’m thinking of buying a new Lexus is350 with v6 engine. Will this last at least 300k miles with regular maintenance and driving. 90% will be highway driving.
Scott is saying that for Toyota buy 1.8 and the 2.0 and 2.4 and above just burns oil
I like listening to Scotty he has a unique way of speaking and he gets his point across very well.
All teachers I have met that get through to me also have a unique way of expressing themselves.
I am glad I have his channel. Thank you
I lost it when he said the Retar word 🤣 love you man keep putting out these great videos there super Informative, and no one out there is doing them like you. Thank you
IDK, with the oil burning issue tell them about talking to Savage Scotty Kilmer about it they might just do the engine work
Those big 2.4 L that Toyota makes, I guess they have a problem with the piston rings sticking, I heard the thing to do is to put 1 oz of Seafoam injector/motor treatment for every quart of motor oil about 1000 to 1500 miles before oil change, and also put about an ounce or two in each cylinder after you take the spark plugs out and let them soak for a few days. I heard that'll help unstick the piston rings and remove any deposits or clogged oil lines issues.
Everytime scotty says “rev up your engines” I go outside and turn on my car
I take a shot of 10w-30
😆
In other countries, motorcycles have significantly more utility.
Spot-on about electric bikes.
The suggestion for night vision cameras. Yessssss. 👍
I'd just buy a forged piston kit with aftermarket rings and retune the engine.
Hearing You Scotty. Keep on Educating Us 👏👏👏👏 🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲
2003 RAV4 had issues for me. Stopped moving under its own power eventually. Felt like a transmission issue, presented around 100,000 miles. Leaked oil too
Priceless info. Thank you.
Classic Scotty! Great video bud!
Hello from Portugal, my toyota verso s 2012 is nightmare. The dpf star cleaning just with few km. Sometimes need hard reset with my software. But my gs 1200 no problem.
Easy fix on the piston rings guess it would pour it out put bigger pistons then with those new piston rings use a higher quality piston we get a little better horsepower little less fuel mileage will have that issue anymore
My dad had a Rabbit and a Bug, his mother had several Bugs, my brother had numerous Bugs. These were 60’s and 70’s models. JUNK. They loved them for some reason. My dad enjoyed rebuilding the engine in his Bug every 30K miles.
We had new & used '60s VWs, both bugs and type 3s. Never had engine problems under 75K miles. I had a Rabbit diesel with 234K---a lot more tinny than the bugs, but it ran well.
Evening Scotty, got a 09 Vibe with 2AZFE 193k with a broken off plug (and Extractor broken inside) in cylinder 2. Is it worth going to find a head to pull and replace the for the car and do corresponding gaskets? Used car market is nuts.
That should be a Corolla engine, should be able to throw a rock at the nearest junkyard and find one.
