1. 2015 ford transit connect wagon brake fluid level, dealer says level is ok, but the master cylinder min. level shows no fluid, master cylinder is slanted downward should I fill until level is above min. level, most cars cylinders are level??

2. You always stress ONLY using Honda ATF with Honda transmissions. So what is the difference in the Original Honda DW-1 or Acura ATF-Z1 OEM fluids versus a product like Castrol Transmax ATF?

3. do you use 1a auto or do you know how well their parts hold up……

4. #1) Have U ever worked on a CVT transmission? & opinion. My ladies have a 2016 Nissan Rogue. No problem yet, but wanna prevent them. #2) When do U think U'll be in North Dakota for your tour? Greetings from Winterpeg, MB.

5. hi Eric, I flushed my P.S. fluid and installed a rebuilt P.S. pump — watched your 2 videos first(thx). Works OK and no leaks and belt not slipping. BUT turning force at the steering wheel is 2x or 3x more than original pump. The rebuilt pump came with 2 "O" rings. Maybe
   will get more pump fluid pressure with other(red) "O" ring ??
   Or maybe pumps are rebuilt to different specifications ?

8. To the Saab guy. Your intercooler will handle fine up to 280-300hk and it can hold around 1.5bar. After that a aftermarket one is recommended 🙂

9. Eric see Rogue One in IMAX, I saw it at National Air and Space Museum in D.C.

10. Hi Eric, I have a 1992 Mazda pickup four cylinder that jumped time (belt) , got it on the compression stroke on number one but the marks on the cam are way off , no singular mark like on a chain gear , its mark with an arrow on each number 1-4 can I turn the cam gear or will that bend the valves without the belt?

12. congratulations Eric your the man…good job

13. Happy New Year

14. ETCG finally mentioned a Prelude! I can honestly say I have watched at least 90% of the videos Eric has released for the past 3 years, and never once have I heard him mention one. I have a 4th gen myself, and I've always wondered if he had some kind of aversion to them or something. Happy he used to own one. I love mine.

15. That malaysian guy is an idiot. Why would you finance such on old car? And if it's government fees you owe you should've gotten something newer and waited to get your dream car until you could afford it all.

16. Your a good man Eric, You do so much for everyone. I hope your video's live on for hundreds of years. Have a great 2017 mate.

17. While working as a service station attendant (remember those?) in the late 60's I found a cat in the engine compartment while checking the oil. I pulled a very frightened cat out and showed it to the driver. She was surprised and happy to have her cat safe and sound.

18. almost done watching this video. paused it to comment on removing hoses .i want to remind all us married guys, we have a "strap wrench" in our kitchen the same type we used to use to remove an over tightened oil filter, we now use to remove a pickle jar lidpoint is it is also good at reoving hoses

19. as to the radiator hoes pics or for intercooler hoes I got a set from snap on they have several different types of picks and have different types of bends and angles to meet your needs. they work. I had used pliers and have chewed up houses a couple of times after getting the picks so far not one tested hoes again so far

20. Hi Eric happy new year what is the problem of my 2.0 i vtech engine consumed a lot of petrol its maybe 8 kilometer per liter I already replace my air filter and little bit better thanks have nice day

21. I watched the first two questions. You did an excellent job answering both of those. You the man still Eric!

25. not a question eric just want to tell you that you've helped me fix my cars so many different times your videos are truly appreciated bro

26. Hey Eric, I have a 1999 Accord V6 with 121,000 miles. I just changed the radiator last month (after the original lasted as long as it did which to me is impressive) but I kept smelling coolant somewhere in the engine yet there are no leaks. Then when I started the car I started hearing strange noises coming from the air filter housing. It was as if liquid was draining from it. Then I took the car for a drive and the check engine light starts flashing. Turns out to be a P0301. So I came back home. Two days later out of curiosity I opened up the air filter housing and discovered there was liquid at the bottom of the intake. Where could this have come from and how did it happen? I hope that if any repairs are needed it won't be to expensive. Any thoughts on what caused this?

27. Eric, I really need a favor. i hope you remember me. Thanks again for all the good advice wether you remember giving it or not. Anyway, the favor I need is a way to get ahold of Paul Danner, i have a question for him pertaining to the success of my potential career as a diagnostician. Do you have it know if a public or business email address of his, or an email that he wouldn't mind you giving me? The question is a simple question v with a simple answer, that could help me out a great deal. whatever the outcome, thanks all the same, for everything.

28. lol saab is the new Peugeot lol

29. I have an 02 mini with a 5 speed that loves to fall out of 2nd gear on tight left turns. I've replaced old, cracked, and worn engine mounts and it's helped a bit, however it still does it once in a great while. The shifter doesn't feel very crispy or neat, and I'm wondering if putting new bushings into my shift lever and linkage would help the situation? I want to do it anyway to get a more positive shift feeling. Tranny only has 10k miles on it.

30. Great show thanks
