Toyota Engine Blown At 11,000 Miles? Please Get a Second Opinion ALWAYS!

We look at a supposed blown engine on this beautiful 2014 Toyota Avalon with a 2GR-FE that 2 shops have condemned as a blown engine because of a single overheating event which may have been caused by previous questionable work.

I share with you a very interesting story of how misdiagnosis or worse rushed diagnosis can be disastrous and how you should always seek a second opinon when things don't make sense.

    you have no idea how many of us wish we lived close enough to take our car to you.....
  • This is like watching an unusually skilled doctor treat patients that were told their case was a lost cause. I love it!
  • @paulnevins
    Reminds me of when a Honda tech told me I needed a new engine and then wouldn't give me the keys when I wished to get a second opinion. He told me the car would explode if I were to try and start it. He gave me they keys when I started to call the police. My car started just fine and all it needed was a new radiator cap.

    I friggin hate scammer mechanics. Your the shining star to this industry. These stories put a bad name on the industry and glad your here to shine light on peoples scams
  • @1978dakdog
    I'm betting the dealer lied to get them a low ball trade in, so they could fix it, and have a low mileage used car to sell for a premium.
  • As an experienced Orthopedic Surgeon , I see patients for second opinion and often times can treat the patient without performing some complex surgery that was recommended by previous doctor!!! Always get second opinions for your car and your body parts!
  • @dmmurray9422
    This guy is the ultimate knowledge bank resource of auto repair. He is the real thing, questions everything, and calls out lazy, careless unqualified mechanics. brilliant.
  • @drod5157
    I own 3 Toyotas, and live in Tennessee. I have a 65" smart TV. You show up on it to watch you because I get a lot of wisdom from you. I'm not a mechanic, but You are so detailed explaining how things work that it feels like watching a documentary about mechanics. I really pray that God keeps on blessing you in your life. Thank you for not being a crook!
  • @johneldorado
    The Toyota dealership should be eating every penny of that repair. Disgusting.
  • @VagrantCode
    This guys the king of getting me to listen to a 30 minute rant about Toyotas for no reason
  • @2GSpyderTurbo
    I started my own business as an automotive tech for these kinds of reasons. I do that due diligence and make sure I’m doing the right thing the first time as much as possible.
  • @zaczac3024
    If you think a good mechanic is expensive, wait till you take your car to a bad mechanic
  • Those people are now lifetime customers and the word-of-mouth advertising you will get is priceless. That warm feeling of helping people is priceless too.
  • @jeffsullivan3101
    Ahmed, I hope you realize just how uncommon a person/technician you are. People with your level of honesty and integrity have all but disappeared.You could have taken both of these customers to the cleaners like everyone else but you are not that kind of person. May God continue to bless you my friend.
  • You are the nemesis of all wreckless and dodgy dealers and technicians for the greater good! Your expertise is unquestionable and your presenting style is world-class, I could watch your vids for hours...You should have a mini-series on one of the large streaming plattforms, seriously.
  • @blackbrownblanco
    Safety certification test, a mechanic told me I had a rust hole in my chassis and it required a $2000 patch job. When I checked myself, the hole was a mounting point on the frame, intentionally put in by Toyota. After rubbing off the winterizing tar from that area, it was a perfect circle without any structural defects.
  • @brianbanks3044
    good to see a mechanic who is honest and takes pride in his work...I was a mechanic for 30 yrs and the worst thing i ever heard fellow mechanics say was, "Good enough"...I told them to pretend it was their vehicle or their parents' vehicle and treat it like that.....if it is good enough for YOU then it is good enough for them.....take pride in your work fellow techs, it goes a LONG way
  • @jimhill6586
    I would accurately describe this guy as a forensic automotive diagnostistian. He looks beyond what things appear wrong.
  • @boblawrence5011
    Just happened upon this channel and watched from beginning to end, you are so committed to what you do, thank you. I’m in England and that Avalon is some car but it seems it’s not available here. Keep on doing what you’re doing, you will always have work.❤️
