great first time diagnosis. My 2007 2. 2 diesel Citroen C6. Handbrake cables are so corroded with broken rusty strands of wire. that I decided to replace them. One Citroen parts supplioer claimed the electric parking brake assembly is only supplied as a complete unit. insane money. so i asked the guy who I bought it off and he insisted the parking brake cables were listed separately in the parts list. A trip to another Citroen Dealership and the nice spares guy ordered them for me and even gave 10% discount. I had to make an appointment to collect the parts because of the Chinese CCP Killer bio virus weapon lock down in Portugal. 260 euros. fitted the cables myself. a real fiddly job but at 75 years old still possible. Keep up your brilliant and informative videos. I love all of them.

I do not buy kias or Hyundais because they always have major shit going wrong. I bought a Hyundai Sonata sport 2018 with 19 miles on it. At 3700 I got a letter saying my knock sensor needed an update. Long story short I was told my car had a bad engine after this recall. After the headache and being screwed out of a rental after 3 weeks Ill never support Korean automotive ever again. Im not surprised this major component going bad is common

i might have to pull the viscous coupler on my 07 Santa Fe and pro actively replace these with the better bearing and seal this summer. Also. on another vein, if you had AWD and just want to run 2WD, is there a downside to just pulling the prop shaft and just leaving everything else be? No warning lights etc? i really wish this could be done and lockable hubs put on the rear.

Nice job - my Toyota Venza is having similar issues and the dealer is spouting the same not serviceable bs. 3000 to replace the entire coupler. Appears it's probably a 30 NSK bearing and dust seal to blame. Going to try to source one as Toyo won't sell it to me. Bandits(Ironically there's a recall on the RAV coupler for this problem. No so the Venza as far as I can tell. )

great video, done the same job on my 2009 2. 0 diesel, after watching you, Now unrelated problem, when slowing down to 5 mph there is a soft rubber like bump, always as u hit 5 mph, if the 4wd lock button is on, it dont do it. when stopped if u turn off the 4wd lock button i get the same bump but harder. Any idea, s Mark.

Eric-O love your videos! Loved in Rochester for 15 years and worked on a lot of cars and believe me you are right when you say it is tuff working on cars in the rust belt. It is a whole different world working on cars in the south were EVERY bolt, nut, connector etc is rusted and corroded! You do a great job!

Eric thinks like a true mechanic: don't tell me I can't fix it and: every tool is a hammer except the claw hammer his wife finds in the toolbox: what is that doing in there?

i remember reading somewherez that letting the drive shaft hang like that can damage it and introduce imbalance or something like that? Anyone know if thats the case?
