Description
In this episode, he dives into a few different topics, from a 1994 Toyota with a pesky ABS light to a 2016 Jeep with a mysterious power steering issue.
Dane starts off by discussing a 1994 Toyota with a 164,000 miles on it that's experiencing intermittent ABS issues. He explains that the likely culprit is a faulty ABS module, which can be a costly and difficult repair. He advises the listener to have a professional scan the vehicle to determine the exact issue and recommends replacing the module with a remanufactured one from AC Delco.
Next, Dane talks to a listener who's experiencing a misfire issue with their 2016 Jeep. He suggests that the problem could be with the spark plug, ignition coil, or fuel injector, and recommends using a scan tool to diagnose the issue. He also advises the listener to consider adding a fuel treatment to clean the fuel injectors.
The episode also touches on a few other topics, including a listener's question about donating a 2018 Ford Edge with a blown engine, and Dane's own experience with a Lincoln MKZ that had a faulty water pump. He offers some practical advice on what to do with a car that's no longer reliable, including donating it to a local charity or trading it in.
