    we all watch your videos and just waiting for the BRAKE CLEANER FLUSH to make it all shiny again, I KNOW – WE ARE ALL SAD SOULS ( that's the clean version )

    Awesome Video!! Now I know what my Mechanic in Hunt Valley, Maryland did when they changed my intake manifold gasket on my 2006 Toyota Matrix. FANTASTIC JOB RAY, LIKE ALWAYS!!

    Interesting photo perspectives. At one point I thought the camera was a goner judging by how close the tire was coming down on it.

    "There's a red wire spliced into…." There's that curiosity again. You are wonderful! And it hurt my brain too, I could "feel" you twitching at how that was done. Sometimes it's hard NOT to fix things huh?

    lol..Whats up bird….as bird attacks and kills Mechanic in Florida.

    I have the Toyota version- it has electric power steering. Has 180k miles and still going strong. The only weakness is the VVT Cam gear which is somehow controlled by oil pressure sometimes chatters upon start up as it pressurizes.

    Well I just used your link to purchase my Amazon cart. I hope it helps

    The Pontiac Vibe, is the Toyota Voltz in Japan. The Voltz S (Vibe GT) comes with optional automatic transmission, whereas the USA Vibe, only is sold as a 6 Speed manual.
    these are from years 2003-2008 For Base models, and 2003-2006 GT models.
    The 2zz-ge "GT" engine, is also used in the Lotus Elise.

    We just going to ignore the giant birds outside the shop?

    He enjoys this valve cover job..last one was put on with dabs silicone and gasket pressing just like pizza preparation…at your local Pizza Hut.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ninjabrd79 says:

    I cant seem to make it to the end of the video, but I do have 8 pairs of angry pliers……

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dan says:

    Ray is the greatest video editor that also works on cars.

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars George Cothran says:

    Go to Amazon….. Ha. I don’t think so Tim.

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Zeusacoatl says:

    LOL, I have been around enough shops to be able to smell that parts wash time lapse

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stanley Mcfalls The Southern Comedian says:

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ACOnetwork says:

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars roythearcher says:

    "assume makes an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'"…. Can't remember where I heard that but true all the same!..

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SirMichael says:

    Best plug ever❗️

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MonkeyJedi99 says:

    Thanks for the miniature dinosaur footage at the front of the show!

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Gavin Christopher says:

    Like your humor.your work is your passion.

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Hudspeath says:

    To be honest the guy probably talked to your boss and said he’s trying to upsell me stuff I don’t need…. You’re manager probably replied he’s the most trustworthy and trusted mechanic we have ever had and if he says you need it you probably should listen to him

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars wayne mazan says:

    tappt rap

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars King Muppet says:

    Did you pay extra for the new filming style… New Capture Angles, New Camera Rotations and New Lighting… 🙂

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Larry Cox says:

    Ray, is it just me, or does anyone else enjoy the time lapse and music? Love the channel, Thank you.

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steven Hop says:

    Whats with the damn circus music? Lol

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Homen says:

    FUNNY GUY!

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ARednecksLife says:

    This car is some of the only good parts Toyota gets correct.
    With the goodness of GM.
    The same goes with the Toyota version.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars PocketChange says:

    The fun part is finding rear brake parts for this year vibe in the AWD version.

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Agent Office says:

    What's that bird

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MarzNet256 says:

    This 1zz engine is also gonna probably need a new (upgraded) intake manifold gasket. A rough idle in cold weather and elevated ltft is the tipoff.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Luke Yarasheski says:

    It looks like they hot wired the fan to the compressor. There must be something wrong with the A/C fan circuit because the A/C fan was new too. They probably replaced that first thinking that was the issue

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jerrid Kierig says:

    I'm guilty of being one of those who stares from the waiting room widow and or door. It only happens when I'm in a position that I cannot perform the repair myself. It drives me crazy paying someone else to repair something that I can do myself.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Power Surge says:

    Ac tually, I have a complaint… You did not paint the valve cover bright red to match the interior.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Power Surge says:

    wOW. thIS Episode deserves the mechanic cinematography award for your camera and sound track creativity. You must have been bored.that day. I loved it.

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Øyvind Hvaal says:

    Hi Ray, I love to watch you work. Have done that myself for more than thirty years till my back gave up on me. Now I'm retired. A question, don't you use lube on sparkplug threads when you put them in aluminium cyl. heads? We were told never to put steel threads in aluminium without lube. This to avoid stripping the threads. Have a nice weekend, man!

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars kevin lanthier says:

    lols awsome vid

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Morten Kristoffersen says:

    It's a cousin to the Corolla. Albeit, with added GM piss poor assembly quality.

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jordan Kinberg says:

    I hate lurking customers. GO AWAY! LEAVE ME ALLOONNNNEEEEE!

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars bhag meister says:

    Must order hose clamp plier. Must order hose clamp plier. Must order……

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars axl151 says:

    Great video. On the 1ZZFE, the #2,3,4 coils will come out a lot easier if you loosen the 2 nuts on that harness tube before removal, and leave it loose till the coils are back in like you did.
    285+K on my Vibe, I've done this a few times…

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dustin Miller says:

    Hahahahah the hypnotism joke is funny!!!😁

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sisrace says:

    You want to be cost effective, and you're not made of money. So you opt to NOT spend $20 for new spark plugs, only to need new $400 coils later because the worn out plugs put stress on the coils. Good idea there.

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Hola! David Beanz says:

    The dismall experience that I briefly had at Firestone as Service Mangler, they would try to make me instill so much fear into this customer that he would be rushing to his bank to take out a 2nd mortgage on his house due to the fear of driving his family around in a "ticking time bomb"I would tell them to piss up a rope. Thus the short career there. It was inhumane and unconscionable the unnecessary maintenance and repairs they would demand that they wanted me to force on trusting customers. They need to be investigated in a huge way. Bye, this was job my experience. Be warned.

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Perkins says:

    Sorry ray why would you change the spark plugs without looking at the maintance schedule

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars George Stewart says:

    I have only just now came out of a trance.. 😂

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Dr Remulack says:

    Matrix and Vibe, same care.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Robert Kohut says:

    Electrode….:-)

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Tom Dixon says:

    Very cool camera pan to your underworld.

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Ian Rolfe says:

    Is that bird some kind of crane?

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars daveogarf says:

    Very artsy-fartsy camera work on the lift sequence, Ray! Felt like I was adrift in deep space.
