I hate autonomous car systems; they're way too brave. I was driving a 2020 Toyota Tacoma and it was regulating the cruise control by slowing down when the person in front slows down. The issue is that the system on all settings was getting far closer than any person would dare drive on such types of roads I was on. All the manufacturers are guilty of this right now. They're putting systems into vehicles that only work right under certain conditions without any clear disclosure pop-ups on the displays that say things like don't use on roads that are curvy. Because the censors aren't advanced enough to make a mental note that there's still someone ahead of you beyond where you are in the curve and not to just speed up. What the systems should do is say there's a car in front of me entering a curve I'm about to enter, that car has vanished because the curve, wait to accelerate on the other side of the bend after verifying that car is truly no longer on the road ahead of me. Nope they don't work like that. Autonomous systems that regulate distance don't take into account enough variables and to be honest I'm surprised that the government doesn't more heavily regulate this stuff so they can't just throw in some half-made system that doesn't fully do as it implies.

We will only have a autonomous vehicles on the road when we have intelligent highways with built-in computers and 24/7 infrared cameras watching the cars as they drive and continually communicating with the cars and with the roads having pressure sensors over the entire surface to physically feel for pedestrians and animals walking across might work in a city situation but the entire city roads will have to be completely demolished and redesigned and rebuilt which would cost billions upon billions of taxpayer dollars otherwise they will not work correctly unless you want to build a separate Road system above or below the curtain Road system for the autonomous vehicles to work correctly Current Designs of autonomous vehicles can only help drivers prevent accidents when we have drivers that don't pay attention or like to text and drive using GPS and cameras alone will not work because GPS always lose tracking because of little computer glitches the concept is a neat idea but foolhardy just my opinion on autonomous vehicles and I agree the all cars today look almost identical regardless of manufacturer especially since 2000 and newer

The guy with the no heat problem, do this first. Turn your key on but don't start the car. Listen closely as you move the heat dial from cold to hot. You should hear the motor moving the blend door open and closed. If you do hear the blend door working, then move on to the next step. If your coolant looks brown or similar to chocolate like mine did when I first got my truck, then try flushing the radiator with a flush chemical according to the instructions on the container while the heat/cold dial is in the hottest position. After flushing the system but still no heat, unhook the 2 hoses going to the heater core and run water through it thoroughly. Still no heat? You have to change the heater core. Don't know how involved it is to change the core on your car, but some of 'em are a big pain in the neck. Best of luck

Mahindra got authorization to build the cj2 Jeep way back and they have building them ever since. It was during war time and they kept building and selling them so it's a 40 years ago they where granted the rite to build them and the company Jeep has changed hands multiple times. They are sold as a off road only vehicle here. One of the old top gear episodes James may drive one for some reason it's just a regular car there in India. That was 2010-14 or so. Newly built with new parts but still all the same old technology from 40-50 years ago. Except the modern diesel engine.

Scotty, I have a 95 Bonny with the 3. 8 V6. After getting oil changed and radiator fluid topped off. After some good ol hard acceleration, I saw some steam from under the hood. Thinking I might have a small heater hose leak, I removed the engines plastic cover checked the coolant was still full, then warmed it up to find no leaks. Maybe they spilled some when they topped it off? I did find a broken vacuum line on the top right side that rubber elbows onto a small round thing that I imagine has a diaphragm in it. What's that for?

The converter and emission sensors are warrantied by USA federal law for 7yr/70k or 8yr/80k, depending which exact part, are they not? Thats what my OEM warranty books say for my last 3 trucks. It itemizes exactly which emission parts are what warranty. So the 2015 example in the video depending upon miles perhaps is a free warranty repair, whether the dealer likes it or not. If the dealer doesnt like it, then they should litigate it in court with the USA government and see how it works out for them.

The Japanese legal system is inherently corrupt. Their culture has so much insistence on being correct that even the judges buy into the fact that if charges are filed they must be correct. Their conviction rate is very high. There was a recent case where the prosecutor knew the accused was innocent but the system in their minds is always right and they convicted an innocent person. That prosecutor finally came clean years later because of his personal feeling of guilt.

For the guy with the P0420 code. just make a bolt that threads in the place of the second O2 senzor, than bolt the sensor in that bolt (so that the O2 sensor in half an inch further from the measuring place, the threads are all the same for O2 sensors, reset the code and you should be good to go. Did this to my 2001 S60 2. 4 2 years ago, and the code still hasnt returned. I can send you a picture of what it looks like if you want.

The Mahindra roxor is a Jeep. Mahindra actually has licensing rights to produce versions of the 1st gen Willy's if I'm not mistaken. But there's a caveat. In the United States the Mahindra roxor doesn't meet any kind of safety standards like is required of a modern road vehicle. Legally it's a side-by-side UTV like a Kawasaki mule. I don't understand why Jeep would bother. It's not like they're producing a competing product.
