0.42 -> rev up your engines today I'm gonna talk
about whether you should get rid of a
10.92 -> car that you have or whether you should
continue owning it and taking care of it
15.84 -> and I've got a perfect example here my customer
here
18.71 -> she owns a ten-year-old Infiniti she's
asking me should I keep this car or
23.61 -> should I get something else is it gonna
give me a lot of problems I can still
26.76 -> drive it a few years now if you've been
watching me anything like the time
29.99 -> you'll know I'll say don't go buy used
infiniti g37 or any high-end infiniti
35.109 -> because they can become money pits as
they age but here I'm gonna give an
39.46 -> honest evaluation of the car to my
customer okay we climb inside and we see
43.579 -> it's got ninety two thousand three
hundred and two miles on it that's got
47.839 -> all the bells and whistles and she said
they all work perfectly fine she's never
52.03 -> had any problems with them and you have
a lot of trims cracking the places and
56.129 -> the other trim is fading away coating on
the plastic is wearing off but if we go
61.269 -> into the back it's immaculate no
problems there because hey she drives the
65.71 -> car by herself nobody else nobody is using
it we got to the passenger side hey that's
70.1 -> immaculate too that's not faded away
that's not cracked
73.56 -> she just drives the car by yourself and
we check in the trunk pop it open
79.03 -> everything's clean the seals clean she
told me it's never been wrecked and it
82.66 -> certainly looks like it never has been
and when we pull the hood release and check
86.77 -> under the hood
it's got the ultra reliable v6 engine in it
91.21 -> it doesn't burn any oil or lose any
coolant and being the original owner she
95.429 -> hasn't had any major problems the
biggest thing she did was have the front
101.009 -> struts change because it was bouncing
too much so it's got a history of being
105.1 -> a pretty good cars never been wrecked
but you never know so I'm getting my
109.19 -> fancy scan tool and we'll hook it up
just plug it under the dash it goes
114.81 -> problems can't hide from these machines
we just pressed Diagnostics then
120.21 -> infinity and away we go smart machine it
knows what it's doing it's already read the
125.28 -> whole thing and now we scan it auto
scans and now it's scanning now it's found
130.039 -> two
problems one with the body control
132.54 -> three with the sonar system so start with
a body controller module that's got a
137.75 -> a code of u1000 which is relatively
common with an older car this is a lost
141.819 -> communication code of the main computer
to any of the modules often though lose
146.62 -> communication once in a while with one
or the other runs fine she hasn't had
150.72 -> any problems with it I see this all the
time if I had a customer who's buying
155.43 -> this vehicle and it didn't work right
didn't have that code I'd say walk away
159.64 -> because that lost communication can
be a serious problem but when they run
163.379 -> perfectly fine I see it all the time in
cars now it also has a code for the sonar
167.79 -> system so we'll see what that is it's
lost communication with three of the
172.31 -> sonar sensors interestly enough each one
of the three was seen exactly thirty
178.31 -> nine times it records how many times it
happens so all these codes are related
182.72 -> I'm assuming that the main computer has
the you 1,000 code of loss of
186.709 -> communication because it's lost
communication with some of these two but
190.01 -> sonar systems for back and up and for
warning you're getting too close that's
194.26 -> typical as these things age hey as long
as you use your eyes and ears and drive
198.799 -> normally none of these systems are gonna
save you anyway and as they age they can
203.45 -> cost a fortune to fix and most people
like this lady just ignore them I'm
207.629 -> gonna check all the live data that gives
me so much information I don't know what
212.01 -> kind of shape this vehicle is in overall
within a few minutes and as you can see
217.17 -> man there is a lot of data I analyzed it as
I scroll through it this particular
222.76 -> system is color coded so if they're bad
they'll be either yellow or red or
227.69 -> they'll be highlighted and so just being
a normal color for example the map
231.439 -> sensor data that's pretty spot-on for this
vehicle
234.609 -> I can't even test it by putting it in
drive and now I'm going to turn off the
238.34 -> AC that you'd make the MAP sensor drop
watch turned it off and it dropped just
243.58 -> like it's supposed to see the injector
pulse is good the mass airflow sensor is
248.459 -> good there is so much information that I
can go through that shows me what kind
253.53 -> of shape the engine is in the
transmission is in its wild, alternator is
257.97 -> working there it is thirteen point seven
six volts without of your nothing going
260.63 -> on the hood of the car so
actually the machine tells me that the
264.6 -> vehicle is in excellent shape the
transmission has no problems the engine
269.34 -> has no problems the electronic system
other than that stupid lost
273.3 -> communication which is probably the
sonar system that's in tip-top shape now
277.16 -> I did notice something while I walking I could
smell a little smoldering during then when
280.53 -> I come here
I can smell a tiny bit of smoldering
283.31 -> this is a v6 engine ninety something
thousand miles the valve cover gaskets
287.67 -> are seeping a tiny amount of oil which
then smolders it's no big deal
292.28 -> I seen cars go years this way with no
real problems at all
296.76 -> it's not even dripping on the ground now
if it's dripping on the ground making a
300.26 -> mess yeah it's time to change them out
but as these things age a lot of them
304.07 -> let just a little bit of oil come out of
it it doesn't really mean anything
308.26 -> I checked the tires and they're wearing
evenly you have any scallops either the
311.97 -> front one score the back ones and of
course now I'm gonna take it for a road
315.51 -> test and a highway see it handles at
high speed but I drove it around here
319.75 -> just around the block and man this thing
is fast I can see why people buy them
325.56 -> they're extremely fast vehicles the
owner may be a little old lady but she's
330.26 -> more like the little old lady from
Pasadena who wants to put her foot the
334.41 -> pedal the metal every once in a while
and well step on the gas
339.54 -> goes like stink and also handles like a
dream true this car is in excellent shape
345.46 -> so all in all considering that it shifts
like a dream and runs like a dream doesn't
350.12 -> burn oil doesn't use any coolant has no
serious trouble cold the data is all
356.43 -> good I'm gonna tell my customer
keep the car it might go years more and in
360.99 -> this particular case even though I say
don't buy these used infinities if a
366.03 -> customer had brought me this car and
said should I buy this car not and after
370.43 -> I checked it out I'd say if you don't
pay too much money for it it could be a
375.33 -> good car but of course she already owns
the car it's been paid for years ago so
380.68 -> what the heck she might get another four
or five years of reasonably trouble-free
384.74 -> driving with us thing as the saying goes
better the devil you know than the one
389.77 -> you don't, so if you never want to miss
