On the tires, I think the 50 and 55 is an aspect ratio rather than a direct measurement. This meand the sidewall is 55% of 185 cm or 50% of 195 cm. This means the tire is wider and slightly shorter.

Thank you for the very interesting video. It’s great to learn about cars and repairs.

FYI... You don't have to remove the vent cover to install this radio. I left my vents in, and the radio fits perfectly.

Can I pick your brain please 🙏 I have a 61 plate abarth 500 my map sensor keeps getting bunged up with oil the car is currently running at 22mph my oil catcher can stinks of fuel as does the oil cap any ideas what it could be ? Thank you

They need to add a jumpstarter using supercaps to use the latent charge already in the battery, other then that they do make good products.

paul you could try doing the cam belt yourself gates kit is £90

Thank you for the detail on the vents, haven't seen it explained elsewhere. I think this has pushed me over the edge away from the Xtrons units, towards the 9 inch screen ones instead.

You didn't show the ripping out and stamping on of the Telematics box It's your second bite of the cherry with this one so I'd say split the profit you make this time round with Poppy, I think it would be good for your business reputation in the long run.

Sell it to we want any car as that's what I'm doing as sadly mines knackered only on 85K never had any accidents but these cars are just badly made, they look beautiful but are basically a Punto or Panda in drag , I can get £2350 so only a loss of 650 for me after 3 Months ownership , next car I'm buying will be a Hyundai i10 as they never go wrong.

Can you confirm the amps of the battery ? I gather peanut is a 1.2 petrol lounge. My battery is only 390amp and wondering if that explains my poor idling.

In my case I get km flashing and until now there is no evidence of fixing this … writing proxi data it fails always ( entertainment telematics node ) timeout error … even disconnecting b&me in my case didn’t help ,, hope you as a expert can find any solution about this issue of communication between android canbus a body control module … crossing fingers

Have a look at the cam belt yourself see what condition it's in.

185 55 15 is almost the same dia as 195 50 15.... So is ok

Do you know if you can buy the headlight repair kits for the ford ka mk2 same car more or less I mess with them a lot and the head lights are a big issue same as the 500 cheers Den?

Bigger tyres on back as match pair are legal but not on front. People also change size but not the right way as you mess up the speedo and gearbox. You have to keep the same rolling circumference.

Another super video! Thanks what happened to the car with the bent chassis leg you were going to straighten with a scaffold pole? Have I missed it?

Paul I would change cam belt you don't want greaf from a neighbor if so.ething happens to the car after you sold it they come back on like most people do but you save £200 if did the belt yourself you really need to do to save money paying out to other people doing work for you less profit 😂😂 Phil in stoke

Watching in Tenerife, don't wanna come home 😂 Like the 500's in the colour of that mirror, less girly 👍 Good job as always Paul, adiós 🕺

Do the belt and charge £2500, roof lining is a bit grubby(realise you haven’t cleaned inside yet), another good video.

Paul the make up ur own earth leads as u can make the length of what ur need for the car. As they are cheap too make up. As on the key as over time the solder joints will be cracked and the battery will not able to put voltage in the key circuit board as a common issue with remote keys. Cracking job coming on well

Unless your mot station is over the top which many are, I expect kwik fit probably are I'd leave the rear tyre, they are only 10mm more width and 5mm less profile probably sport tyres, if anything its a bonus as it'll be better road holding especially in the wet being slightly wider ! For future reference Give your customers the option of a cambelt replacement, let them decide, I'm sure most would for peace of mind. personally i would be happy to give you an extra £200 over price of the car its way cheaper than any garage, my local garage would charge £320! So they should unless you have proof that it's been replaced, its simple to inspect the belt, couple of bolts give you enough access to see the belt but think it's usually around 60,000 or 6 years cos worse case it's a recon engine plus labour to fit it so it's a no brainer not to ! 🤔😊

I suppose you will be able to keep the tyres you take off and can use them on a car that requires 4 and you would only have to get 2 the same size. 👍👍

Do the belt and save a knock on the day saying that car you have just sold me needs a new engine

the tyres will be alright for mot.

The tyres are fine as there on the same axle. Give the neighbour the choice or just do the cambelt. I would definitely mention it as been a neighbour sods law it would snap within a year and you will get dirty looks for life 😂

Great progress on the car so far top job thanks for sharing 👍👍

It’s not waffle as it’s usually relevant to the process and we’d probably be asking you if you didn’t mention these things 😂

Any progress on this one yet?

Get the belt done charge £25000 then it will be perfect little car!

Only got to 22:30 but I'm having a bet with myself if you're going to remember to swap out the exterior door handle from the donor door for the one from the original door before you put the door card on edit.. @23:17 you remembered 👍

Were do you get the CarPlay screen from 👍

Top job car looks great thanks for sharing 👍👍

Top video thanks for sharing 👍👍

Featuring tomorrow?!

Hiya Paul Love the channel. I'm subbed and followed for a while and it's helped me with my partners car a lot. Wonder if you have ever replaced the resistor which gives the cabin fan speeds ? Hers only works on highest setting and I'm told this is also a common fault. One of your wonderful simple clear videos would make me a fan for life.

Hi Paul can you fix blue and me on fiat Punto 2014 plate? I have flashing odometer and blue and me not working

Definitely replace bottom bar Paul.

I'll bet it was the police that smashed the window not the thieves. You see it on C5's Police Interceptors, a police vehicle equipped with an ANPR camera alerts the officers that a car is stolen and next minute they're all over it smashing windows with their batons to scare the thieves..

Have you changed the inner wing , drivers on any of your videos, can't find one , thanks

Hey what's up. I hope I'm not too late to the party. I did this procedure on my 2016 Fiat 500X 2.4L I4 SOHC with MES (MultiEcuScan) 5.1 and OBDLink SX USB cable and the blue adapter and grey adapter after swapping the "second-best" stock factory radio (with the Trip button) to the "best/top-tier" factory radio (with the Nav button), but when it gets to the radio/climate portions (where the blue adapter cable is required), I get a "timeout error". It's the same error that is provided if the cable is disconnected entirely from the car, or if no or incorrect adapter is connected between the OBDLinkSX and the car. I tried restarting and resetting anything and everything, having the seatbelts connected and disconnected, having the climate control on and off, having the radio on and off, and any other combination thereof, and through multiple tries, although everything else works out great and the grey adapter is recognized and all other Proxi Alignment procedures work successfully, I always get the Timeout Error when it gets to the portion of the climate control and radio portion (the portions of the Proxi Alignment that require the blue adapter). One thing to note before I ask my question: MES does not have the 2.4L 500X as one of the vehicle options in the list, so I click the 2.0L 500X, but that shouldn't make a difference for the Proxi Alignment procedure regardless. My apologies for the long-winded message, but I wanted to be thorough. My question is thus this: would all of this indicate a faulty blue adapter cable, or is there something else that could be the culprit of this issue? Mind you, I'm supposed to take my car in for the U90 recall, and they are supposed to update and reset the tranmission PCM through a Proxi Alignment at the dealership, but I'd like to resolve this before then so they don't ding me for whatever reason or refuse service or charge me for something. Thanks in advance for your time. I appreciate you and others like you that make UA-cam University the amazing place it is

Excellent video, do you need to code or register the new battery?

You may not need a new key. Just put the key in the ignition, switch it on and then press the open or the close button. That should sync your remote radio configuration.

Hi Paul. I have a Ford KA 2013 plate. Suddenly the USB port has stopped working, mileage flashing, phone wont connect (Infact the media settings don’t even show now!), two buttons on steering wheel stopped working (voice control and phone call) and the temperature dial and blower back light is no longer on. Do you think this is the blu and me?

Hi, I have the same video for the steering controls. Also 2 wires (key 1 and 2). Not sure if I missed it, but how do you get the steering buttons to work?

Hi, any idea if I can still change if i can't get the key in to turn it?

Just wanted to say thank you for the video. My module just randomly died after 10 years and was causing a battery drain. I have now successfully removed it and hopefully fixed my drain issue. Saved me hundreds on not taking it to a dealer and only cost me $12 AUD for some WD40 and a wire brush. Once again thank you very much, From Perth Australia

Is this how you do a coolant flush? is there no cap in the bottom of the car to let all the coolant go? this all seems very involved.

I wonder if the sump has been changed and someone has dropped the manifold….and removed the heat shield at that time.

I wonder if it had an annoying rattle which they thought was the heat shield so they removed it. Then later on found out it was the air filter box and packed it with washers.

Is it much of a pain to change the airbags, do you need to reset the dash lights after or will it just go out after changing them.
