Will You Pass the Test? Starting, Charging & Cranking-Fun Friday

Nov 13, 2026 56 min

Winter is knocking on the door, and there's no better to make sure you understand your vehicle's starting ,charging and cranking systems! This Fun Friday, we're putting your knowledge and retention to the test with another quiz. How much have you learned, and can you put that knowledge to work when it matters? Because when your battery, starter or charging system lets you down, you could find yourself stranded in a cold, dark parking lot long after everyone else has gone home. And here's something to think about: what happens when your battery is dead, your keyless entry doesn't work, and your emergency mechanical key won't get you into the vehicle either? Suddenly, Plan B isn't looking quite so good! We've also got a bonus question involving a little truck I purchased in my twenties. Believe it ore not, I still own it 43 years later! Education, entertainment and common sense. Let's see how well you've been paying attention! #Motormouth #CarMaintenance #WinterDriving " Everything we talk about Lives at our Website - its the Biggest Drawer In our Tool Box " you'll find everything on our Homepage if you'd like to follow the Build & Repair Work we do & connect with our Program Partners, simply click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business friends, we need them & YOU TOO👍❤️ SUPPORT THE SHOW & YOUTUBE CHANNEL - FIVE SIMPLE WAYS👍 1)📺 Subscribe: Help us reach 1,000 Youtube subscribers.

Understanding Your Vehicles Powertrain | AWD Doesn't Mean Damage - Proof!

Nov 12, 2026 52 min

What exactly happens between engine and the wheels when you put your vehicle in Drive or Reverse? And does having AWD or 4WD mean your vehicle is protected from driveline damage? Absolutely not! We're opening the door to the world of powertrains, drivetrains and drivelines, breaking down what these systems do and how power gets transferred to the wheels. We'll also explorer the differences between all-wheel drive, full -time AWD and part time AWD, and why understanding those differences can save you some very expensive repairs. One important reminder: getting stuck doesn't mean someone should become a hero trying to pull your vehicle free. The wrong recovery attempt can cause thousands of dollars in damage. Starting Monday, we're unpacking the powertrain one component at a time, using common-sense explanations to help you understand your vehicle and avoid unnecessary repairs. Your next Motormouth Fall/Winter Vehicle Maintenance Nugget could save you thousands! #Motormouth #VehicleMaintenance #AWD " Everything we talk about Lives at our Website - its the Biggest Drawer In our Tool Box " You'll find everything on our Homepage if you'd like to follow the Build or Repair Work we do & connect with our Program Partners, just click their logo to meet them.

Saturday Q&A | What's Wrong With My Vehicle and What Will it Cost?

Nov 7, 2026 1 hr 12 min

Three questions, three different vehicle concerns, and one question everybody wants answered: What's it going to cost? From an engine oil leak and unusual noise while turning, to a pick up truck with shifting problems, we're talking about why proper diagnosis comes before estimating repair costs. Finding the concern, locating the cause, identifying the necessary repairs and verifying the results are all part of getting the job done right. And before authorizing repairs, make sure you have a detailed estimate that accounts for everything. Because nobody likes surprises when the bill arrives! It's Four C's to a Repair Order , Concern , Cause Correction then Confirmation! No parts Cannon 👍 Remember this friends, A symptom is not a diagnosis, and a guess is not an estimate.

Starter Motors Matter: Don't Believe the Lifetime Myth!

Nov 5, 2026 48 min

And yes, friends, starter motors matter. Unless somebody has invented a vehicle that starts itself by positive thinking, were going to need them. Your starter motor has one very important job: get that engine turning so it can come to life. But how long should a starter motor actually last? Is it really designed to last the lifetime of your vehicle? And what does lifetime even mean when nobody seems to be able to put an actual mileage or time frame on it? Today on Motormouth's Morning Drive, we're taking a closer look at starter motors, separating fact from friction, and discussing why understanding their condition matters to every vehicle owner. A starter motor doesn't usually get much attention until something goes wrong. But there are ways to determine whether yours is healthy or heading toward retirement. We're talking about understanding the system, recognizing the importance of proper testing, and making informed decisions before you find yourself stranded. Don't guess. Don't throw parts at it. Test verify, and know what you're dealing with. Because friends, common sense vehicle maintenance starts with understanding how things work! #StarterMotor #CarMaintenance #AutomotiveTips FIVE SIMPLE WAYS TO HELP SUPPORT; 1) 📺 Subscribe: Help us reach 1,000 YouTube subscribers.

Corrosion Has Changed! Your Electrical Connections Matter

Nov 4, 2026 53 min

Green Mombies, Bad Connections & Starting Problems.....We can fix that! Electrical connections are critical to your vehicle's starting, charging and cranking systems. But corrosion today isn't necessarily the same as the green, crusty connections we remember from older vehicles. Motormouth explains what has changed, why connections should look clean and bright like a new silver dime, and how battery and alternator output signals can be tested and verified. A little preventive testing today can help prevent an unexpected roadside disappointment tomorrow. Coming up next: Something most drivers never think about until it quits working-the starter motor! #Electrical Connections #StartingChargingSystem #Motormouth " Everything we talk about Lives at our Website ccbusnet.com - it's the Biggest Drawer In our Tool Box " you'll find everything on our homepage if you'd like to follow the build 7 Repair work we do, connect with Program Partners, simply click their logo to meet them.

Is Your Alternator Angry? Stop Making It Charge a Dead Battery!

Nov 3, 2026 52 min

Well, there's a little more going on under that hood than you might realize. Your alternator has job to do, and making it work overtime as a battery charger isn't doing it any favours. And what about those auxiliary batteries hiding in today's vehicles? do you know if your vehicle even has one, or what it's actually responsible for? This morning we're talking charging systems, battery health and a common mistake that could cost you an alternator. Boost and go? Maybe it's time to rethink that strategy!

Two Batteries, Two Jobs! Is Your Vehicle Hiding One?

Nov 2, 2026 55 min

The Auxiliary Battery Mystery: Don't Assume You don't Have One! Your Vehicle's main battery and auxiliary battery may look like they're doing the same job, but they can serve very different purposes. This morning, Motormouth breaks down what each battery does, why some vehicles have two, and why knowing whether your vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary battery matters. And here's the fun part: finding that second battery isn't always easy! Manufacturers haven't exactly made accessibility a technician-friendly priority. Don't assume it's unnecessary just because your engine still starts.

Lack of Maintenance: The Most Expensive Mistake You Can Make! | Saturday Q&A

Oct 31, 2026 1 hr 1 min

Three great questions came in this week, and they all have something in common: LACK OF MAINTENANCE! This Saturday we're tackling Allison's 129,000- Km vehicle with a transmission that hasn't been serviced, Erica's unfortunate experience with a vehicle that has died, and Jim's sudden realization that replacing his current vehicle come s with a ridiculous price tag. So what 's the common denominator? LOM - Lack of Maintenance. We'll talk about why transmission maintenance matters, what to do when your vehicle starts giving up the ghost, and how a proper vehicle evaluation and consistent maintenance schedule can help you get more life out of the vehicle you already own. Jim, we've got a starting point for you : the Car Connection Maintenance Schedule package, combined with thorough, honest vehicle evaluation. No shortcuts, no guessing, and certainly no leaving out the bits and pieces that matter. Because buying another vehicle isn't exactly a bargain these days. Between payments, insurance, fuel and maintenance, keeping the family wheels rolling is getting expensive. Take care of what you've got. It'll cost you a whole lot less than neglecting it. join us for Saturday's Q&A .Education, entertainment, and a little common sense from the workbench! #LackOfMaintenance #CarMaintenance #Motormouth You'll find everything on our Homepage at ccbusnet.com if you'd like to follow the Build & Repair work we do, connect with our program partners click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business, we need them & YOU TOO💕 "Everything we talk about Lives at our website - it's the Biggest Drawer In our ToolBox" 🧰 FIVE SIMPLE WAYS TO HELP & SUPPORT; THANK YOU FRIENDS👍❤️ 1) 📺 Subscribe: Help us reach 1,000 YouTube subscribers.

Winter Tires vs. All - Season: Grip Is Everything!

Oct 27, 2026 1 hr 3 min

You've got brakes that stop, steering that turns, and suspension that keeps your tires connected to the road. But what happens when the tires themselves can't deliver the grip you need? Today on Motormouth's Morning Drive, we're looking at the difference between all- season and winter tires, and why tread design, rubber compounds, and tire construction matter when temperatures drop. Imagine a formula One Race Car with a skilled driver and finely tuned chassis- but wrong tires for the track conditions. All that engineering can only do so much when the rubber isn't suited to the road. Winter riving demands more than good intentions. Understanding your tires is an important part of maintaining traction, stability, and control when conditions change. The question is: are your tires ready for the road ahead? Tune in and let's get you thinking about winter grip before the snow flies. #WinterTires #TireSafety #WinterDriving Everything we talk about Lives at our web site - it's the biggest drawer we have in our toolbox!

Brakes, Steering & Suspension: Your Vehicle's Safety Team

Oct 26, 2026 44 min

Your Brakes, steering, and suspension don't work alone. They must work together to deliver the control, stability, and stopping performance you depend on - especially during fall and winter driving. In today's episode, we're wrapping up ourFall/Winter Vehicle Maintenance series on suspension and steering, looking at why these systems must work together to keep your vehicle stable, predictable, and safe. Worn suspension components can affect tire contact with the road, while steering problems can compromise directional control. Add a braking system that isn't performing properly, and you've got a combination no driver should ignore. The Takeaway: Reliable vehicle performance starts with properly maintained systems working together. Don't wait until a small problem becomes a safety issue.

Shocks MacPherson Struts: Busting the Myths That Affect Your Safety

Oct 13, 2026 42 min

What do your shocks and MacPherson Struts actually do, and why do they matter so much as w head into the fall winter driving season. This morning on Motormouth's Morning Drive , we're busting common suspension myths and explaining how shock absorbers, MacPherson struts, and springs work together to control spring oscillations and maintain tire contact with the road. Your springs support the vehicle and absorb bumps. Your shocks control the Springs' continued bouncing. A MacPherson Strut combines a structural suspension component with a shock absorber in one assembly. each component has a job, and they must work together properly. So what happens when shocks or struts wear out? Why can your vehicle feel unstable over bumps, pitch excessively, or lose consistent tire contact with the road? And why should you care before wet roads, cold temperatures, and winter driving arrive? We'll break down what these components do, how they work, what happens when they fail, and what you should understand as a vehicle owner. Remember: Your tires are your only connection to the road. Suspension condition affects handling, stability, braking performance, and your ability to maintain control when road conditions deteriorate. No scare tactics. No marketing gimmicks. Just practical automotive knowledge from more than 44 years in the bays. Because mileage doesn't tell the whole story. Maintenance matters. #Motormouth #CarMaintenance #AutoRepair More Episodes and.... project Details & Links are available at Car Connection Business Network.com ( ccbusnet.com) you'll find everything on our home page if you'd like to follow the Build & Repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them!

Fun Stuff Friday !🇨🇦 Canadian Thanksgiving Weekend - 5Things to PonderBefore winter!

Oct 9, 2026 48 min

It's Fun Friday at the Car Connection Motormouth Workshop, and we've got FIVE things to ponder, plus a bonus tip that'll make you wonder what some drivers are thinking! Cold weather has a nasty habit of exposing neglected maintenance. The time to preapre is BEFORE the temperature drops, not when you're standing i na frozen parking lot wondering why your vehicle won't cooperate! Here's what's on the workbench today: 1) Do your wipers suck? If you can't see clearly, you can't drive safely. Check those bleades before winter weather turns your windshield into a visibility nightmare. 2) How are your fluids doing really? Coolant, oil and other vital fluids deserve attention before the cold asrrives. Winter will expose weaknesses you didn't know you had. 3) Does your vehicle have an external fuel filter? If it does, find out what your manufacturers maintenance schedule says. Don't assume every vehicle has a serviceable external filter. 4) What's in your washer -fluid jug? Minus 40℃? Don't gamble with a mixture that freezes when you need it most. Here at the workshop, we don't do halfway measures! 5) Have you protected your door seals? Silicone protection can help prevent frozen seals from sticking. A little preparation beats trying to pry open your vehicle after an overnight freeze! BONU TIP: WINTER TIRES Still trusting those three-season tires to carry you through another Canadian winter? Your tires are your connection to the road. When temperatures drop and conditions deteriorate, proper winter tires can make a real difference in traction, control and stopping performance. Remember: winter preparation isn't something you do AFTER the first snowstorm. It's something you do before Mother Nature decides to test your judgment! That's how e roll at the Car Connection Motormouth Workshop - practical advice, real - world experience and vehiclke maintenance that makes sense. 1) SUPPORT THE MISSION: Enjoying Motormouth Morning Drive?

Do Shocks Really Matter? The Key to Tire Contact, Stability & Control

Oct 8, 2026 48 min

Shocks and Struts aren't there just for comfort-they have a critical job to do. In today's Suspension & Steering: One Nugget at a Time, Motormouth breaks down what shocks and struts actually do and why they're so important to vehicle stability and control. Whether your vehicle has MacPherson Struts, conventional shocks and coil springs, coil-over assemblies, or a combination of suspension designs, the principle is the same: the suspension has to control the movement of the vehicle while keeping the tires properly planted on the road. When shocks or struts are worn, the suspension can continue bouncing and oscillating instead of settling down. That can reduce tire contact, compromise braking and steering response, increase body movement, and make an emergency left-right maneuver much harder to control. It's not about making your ride feel softy or comfortable. It's about controlling the suspension so the tires can do their job. And when you suddenly have to avoid something in the road, that tire contact can be the difference between maintaining control and finding yourself in a sideways skid-and heading for the rhubarb. Today we look at the purpose of shicks and struts, how different suspension designs use them, and why they deserve to be part of your regular vehicle inspection and maintenance routine.

Suspension & Steering: The Foundation of Vehicle Stability | Fall-Winter Maintenance

Oct 7, 2026 43 min

Your brakes are only part of the equation when it comes to controlling a vehicle. As we continue our Fall-winter Vehicle Maintenance-One Nugget at a Time, we're moving into suspension and steering and why the entire system must work together with a properly performing brake system. From the front of the vehicle to the rear, every component has a job in keeping the vehicle stable, predictable and planted on the roadway. Steering components, suspension components, wheel alignment, tires and braking systems all have to work in harmony-especially when you suddenly need to make an invasive maneuver because somebody else just pulled a maroon maneuver. The goal isn't simply to make a vehicle ride nicely. It's to create a vehicle that responds properly when you need it most, helping you avoid becoming part of somebody else's nightmare. In this introductory episode, we'll look at what we're going to cover, why suspension and steering maintenance matters, and how these systems work together to help keep your vehicle stable and controllable through fall and winter driving. This is Motormouth's Morning Drive, where we talk about what matters, why it matters, how it works, how it fails-and what you can do about it. #Suspension AndSteering #VehicleMaintenance #Motormouth More Episodes and ....project Details & Links are available at ccbusnet.com you'll find everything on our home page, if you'd like to follow the Build & Repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for gicing them your Business friends, we need them & YOU TOO❤️ SUPPORT THE SHOW -FIVE SIMPLE THINGS👍 1) ➡️ Subscribe: and help us reach 1,000 subscribers 💕 2) 👍 Like, Comment & Share - it helps more people find the show & make the algorithms HAPPY 😊 3) ☕️ Buy Me A Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/motormouthnile your gift makes a difference friends💕 4) 🧢👕 Check out the Motormouth Merch: Proceeds Support Total Freedom Ministries and Addiction Recovery Campuses 🇨🇦 & 🇺...

Time to Beat the Drum! Drum Brake Service, Maintenance & Repairs

Oct 5, 2026 49 min

Time to beat the drum, friends🥁 Drum brakes may be simple in design, but they can get complicated when maintenance gets ignored. And yes- there are still plenty of vehicles on the road using rear drum brakes, either on their own or as part of a disc/drum braking system. NOTE: drum brakes require a manual adjustment performed by your auto service technician. Today we're talking about drum barake service, maintenance and repairs, including why rear drum brakes need proper adjustment and why your parking brake/emergency brake needs to be used regularly. One important lesson from the shop and the classroom: drum brakes don't magically maintain themselves. That technician still has an important job to do. We'll wrap up our brake-system series with this episode, then we're moving into Fall/Winter Vehicle Maintenance-One Nugget at a Time.

Fuel System Q&A: Winter Fuel, Fuel System Service & Full Tanks

Oct 3, 2026 1 hr 9 min

Joanne asks what, if anything, should go into the fuel tank over the winter. David wants to know whether fuel system service is actually a thing- or just another shop upsell. And Rosemary asks the age -old winter question: should you keep the fuel tank full? Three great questions, one common subject: your vehicle's fuel system. We'll break down what actually matters, what doesn't, and why fuel - related problems can become a major winter headache if they're ignored. I've seen them come and go, come back again, and plague a vehicle for an entire season. Been there, done that-and probably still have the Tidy Whities to prove it.😂 And a huge Thank-you to Joanne, David, Rosemary, and everyone who takes the time to send in questions, watch the videos, listen to the podcast, and leave those encouraging comments.

Dems the Brakes: Brake Calipers - The Muscle Behind Your Stopping Power

Sep 30, 2026 45 min

Brake calipers are a major player in how your vehicle stops - and just because you press the brake pedal and the car slows down doesn't mean the entire braking system is working properly. Today on Dems the Brakes, we finish up the parking-brake discussion and talk about the habit change that needs to happen before an unused parking brake can safely become part of your routine. Then we get into brake calipers and what can happen when a piston binds, caliper hardware seizes, or brake pads bind in the caliper saddle. A caliper that isn't doing its job can affect how evenly your vehicle brakes at all four wheels. That matters even more when driving conditions change to wet, slippery, icy and black-ice roads. Your brakes need to be doing their job before you discover a problem when you need the most.

Parking Brake Debrief: Your Rear Brakes Are There for a Reason

Sep 29, 2026 51 min

Your parking brake isn't just there for parking - and your rear brakes aren't supposed to sit around looking pretty. In today's Parking Brake Debrief, Motormouth takes another run at the subject because sometimes we're listening to the words but we're not actually hearing the message. The parking brake needs to work, and it needs to be used. More importantly, the rear brakes need to be serviced so they can actually do their share of the braking. When the rear brakes aren't working properly, the front brakes end up carrying far more of the load than they were designed to handle. That means increased front -brake wear, more heat, overheated rotors, brake pulsation and, ultimately, more money coming out of your pocket. And here's the part that gets misunderstood: servicing the rear brakes doesn't automatically mean doing another brake job. Sometimes it means taking the calipers off, removing and cleaning the slide pins, cleaning and lubricating the hardware, removing the pads, cleaning the pad saddles and putting everything back together so the brakes can actually move feely and do their job. Skippy got a perfect real-world reaction when she explained this to her brother- in- law: "You're listening, but you're not hearing." Once he understood what was actually involved, his response was simple: "Oh, I didn't know that's what you meant." That's exactly why we're doing this debrief. We're talking about the Why, the how and the dollars and cents behind keeping the entire braking system working properly-not waiting until something is worn out, overheated or broken. Your brakes are a system. Making every part of that system earn its keep.

Parking Brakes: Why You Should Use Them Every Time

Sep 28, 2026 53 min

Is your parking brake just there for emergencies? Nope. And that little "P" on the automatic transmission isn't a substitute for using it. Today we're putting the parking brake myth to bed and explaining why use your parking brake every time you park is an important part of proper vehicle operation. We look at what actually holds the vehicle when it's in Park, why you don't want the entire weight of the vehicle -whether you're parked uphill or downhill-and how using the parking brake properly helps transfer that load where it belongs. There's another important piece to this : the rear brakes> On many vehicles, regularly applying the parking brake helps keep the rear parking - brake mechanism operating properly. Neglect it long enough and you can end up with rear brake components that aren't doing their share of the work, while the front brakes take more of the beating. That can mean premature front - brake wear - and another repair bill that could have been avoided with a simple habit. So, gentlemen and ladies, when somebody says, "Honey, It's an automatic. we don't need the parking brake," we're going to respectfully dismantle that myth. No hate mail required.😂 Just good vehcile knowledge, proper maintenance, and understanding why your car is designed the way it is.

Saturday Q&A: Oil Consumption, Oil Leaks, & How Often Should You Change Your Fluids.

Sep 26, 2026 1 hr 7 min

Three questions, three important maintenance lessons on this Saturday Q&A! Allison asks: My engine oil needs topping up between oil changes-is that norma? We look at oil consumption in today's high - revving engines and where "normal" ends and a problem begins. Dianne is finding dark engine oil underneath her vehicle. What could that leak mean, and what could that leak mean, and what can happen when petroleum - based fluids reach hot engine components or exhaust systems? A small leak can become a very expensive problem - and vehicle fires can have serious consequences. April: Asks how often should we change our vehicle fluids? Manufacturer recommendations are a starting point, but if you own the vehicle and want it to last, regular fluid changes are part of being the care giver. Mileage doesn't matter. Maintenance matters. You can't save money by neglecting the fluids that protect the expensive parts. #Motormouth #CarMaintenance #AutoRepair More Episodes and....project Links are available at Car Connection Business Network.com (ccbusnet.com) you'll find everything on our home page if you's like to follow the Build & Repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business friends, We need them & YOU TOO❤️ How can you support Motormouth.....If you enjoy what we do and want to Help keep Motormouth moving, there are Five simple ways you can Support the Show! 🔧👋 1) ☕️ Support the Show: Buy Me a coffee....Visit - buymeacoffee.com/motormouthnile your gift of any size is appreciated and put towards production expenses Thank You Skippy💕 2) 👕 Motormouth Merch: Every purchase Helps Support total Freedom Addiction Campuses 🇨🇦 & 🇺🇸 where a life change happens everyday friends, so grab some merch, join our crew and stand against Addiction everywhere👍 Together we can make a difference🙌💕 3) 🚘 Car Connection Maintenance Schedule Kits: Available through ccbusnet.com while supplies last, Subscriber - Only...

Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection (MPVI) : Something Every Driver Needs To Know | Fun Friday

Sep 25, 2026 56 min

What exactly is a Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection (MPVI), and why should you care about it ? On today's Fun Friday , Motormouth breaks down what an MPVI is really supposed to do - and why it's much more than somebody giving your vehicle a quick once -over. A proper inspection looks at the vehicles as a complete system: brakes, tires, steering and suspension, fluids ,belts, lights, wipers, battery condition and those little things that can become big problems if they 're ignored. And we continue our Fall/Winter Tech tips with Tip#17: check your batteries in your keyless - entry fobs before the cold weather arrives. Your vehicle may be perfectly healthy, but a dead fob battery can leave you standing outside wondering what the heck happened! As always, the goal isn't to sell you something you don't need. It's to help you understand what you're driving, recognize potential problems early, and stay ahead of the repair bill. That's what good vehicle maintenance is all about..

Calipers Matter -The Brake Component You Can't Ignore

Sep 24, 2026 51 min

Brake calipers matter - and their condition can make the difference between a properly functioning brake system and one that creates problems down the road. This morning , Motormouth takes a close look at brake calipers: what they do, what needs to be inspected, what tells us a caliper can be cleaned, serviced and reused, and the warning signs that mean it's time to replace it. A caliper may look perfectly fine from the outside while problems are developing where you can't see them. We'll talk about corrosion, piston operation, slides, mounting surfaces and the things that need to be checked before simply putting an old caliper back into service. And Monday, we'll continue the brake discussion with the parking brake- because contrary to what some people may say, having an automatic transmission does not make the parking brake unnecessary. Proper parking - brake operation is part of masking sure the rear brakes are functioning and adjusted as the manufacturer intended. Tomorrow is Fun Friday, so we'll have some fun before getting back into the brakes on Monday morning's Morning Drive with Motormouth! Motormouth, connecting-quality businesses to quality consumers.

Brake System Pressure Differential Valve - Another Critical Component You Need to Understand

Sep 23, 2026 43 min

Your brake system is far more than pads, rotors, and calipers. Today we're continuing our look at the hydraulic side of the braking system, focusing on the pressure differential valve and the critical job it performs when you put your foot on the brake pedal. We're talking about how hydraulic pressure is distributed through the system, why the rear brakes need to begin doing their job as the vehicle's weight transfers forward, and what can happen when that system doesn't operate properly. And we're also talking about something the "maintenance - free" crowd doesn't always want to discuss: brake fluid doesn't last forever. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture. Years of heating and cooling can contaminate the fluid and contribute to corrosion and problems throughout the hydraulic system. That's why I recommend flushing the brake system every 24 months rather than believing in some mysterious "lifetime" fluid. We've covered the brake booster, master cylinder, brake lines and hydraulic components, and we're still working our way toward the mechanical side of the system. The bottom line hasn't changed: That vehicle is your money. You bought it. Now take charge of maintaining it. Because if you can't stop or steer it, let me tell you something - nothing else is going to matter. Turn the radio up and scream - you're going into the rhubarb! 🌿😂 And don't forget, we're continuing the brake - system series with more real - world information designed to help you understand what it does, where it works, how it fails and what you can do about it. #Motormouth #BrakeSystem #BrakeMaintenance More Episodes and......project Details & Links are available at Car Connection Business Network.com ccbusnet.com you'll find everything on our home page if you'd like to follow the build & Repair work & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business friends👍 We need them & YOU TOO❤️ Five simple ways you can support...

ABS Braking Systems & The Driver's Role In Staying Safe

Sep 22, 2026 48 min

Your Vehicle's Anti-Lock Braking System is an important safety system-but it isn't magic, and it can only do its job properly when the rest of the braking system is working as it should. This morning, Motormouth explains what ABS does, wha tit feels like when it activates, and why every driver should understand that sensation before they actually need it in an emergency. When ABS engages, the pedal can pulse, vibrate and make noises that may feel completely wrong if you've never experienced them before. Knowing what to expect can keep you from releasing the brake pedal when you need maximum braking. Motormouth also talks about getting familiar with your own vehicle's ABS system. Find a reputable instructional video that demonstrates how your particular system works, and when conditions are safe-such as an empty, snow-covered parking lot-learn what ABS activation actually feels like while maintaining proper control of the vehicle. The goal isn't to scare drivers. It's to take away the surprise. Know your braking system, know your ABS, know what your vehicle is telling you, and understand the driver's role when things go wrong. We'll keep working our way through the braking system in the episodes ahead. And remember: maintenance matters, understanding matters, and when you need your brakes, you don't get a second chance. #ABS #BrakingSystem #CarSafety More Episodes and .... project details & Links are available at Car Connection Business Network (ccbusnet.com) you'll find everything on our home page if you'd like to follow the Build & Repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business friends!

ABS Can't Save Your Bacon.....When All Else Is Failing

Sep 21, 2026 53 min

ABS can be an incredible safety net when things go sideways-but it can't overcome a brake system that isn't working properly. Today we continue our conversation about ABS braking systems and the part the driver plays when ABS activates. Do you know what your vehicle feels like and sounds like when the ABS kicks in? More importantly, do you know what you're supposed to do when it happens? Your ABS control unit depends on the entire braking system being in good working order: clean hydraulic fluid, sound brake lines, properly functioning brakes at all four wheels, and properly adjusted rear brakes. And yes, that emergency /parking brake has an important job when it comes to keeping those rear brakes properly adjusted. Too many drivers simply know, "My vehicle has ABS." That's where the education needs to begin. Tomorrow, I'll tell you how ABS helped save the 2007 FJ Cruiser from being seriously damaged when an unexpected road situation unfolded. These things happen fast-and being prepared can make all the difference. Know your brakes. Know your ABS. Know what your vehicle is telling you. #ABSBrakes #BrakeSafety #CarMaintenance More Episodes and....project Details & Links are..... available at Car Connection Business Network.com (ccbusnet.com) you'll find everything on our home page if you'd like to follow the build & repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business,We need them and YOU TOO👍❤️ How can you Support Motormouth.....

New or Used? Rustproofing Old Cars & Why Brake Service Saves Money

Sep 19, 2026 1 hr 10 min

Three great questions, three very different sides of the vehicle ownership, three very different sides of vehicle ownership - and plenty to chew on over the weekend. Jackies asks the big one: is a new vehicle or a used vehicle the better choice? We break down what to consider before we spending your hard- earned money. Elizabeth wants to know whether rustproofing an older vehicle is worth it. Before you spray anything, there's one very important step: inspect the vehicle and make sure the structure is still sound. If it qualifies, the right rustproofing product can help protect a good car for the long haul. And Gary asks the question that ties directly into our current brake series: how often should your brakes be serviced, and is the cost really worth it? We talk about why waiting until everything is grinding. sticking and making ugly noises can turn routine maintenance into a much bigger repair bill. Plus, a reminder to join us Monday as "Dems Brakes" continues with the ABS braking system - it can't save your bacon when... well, you'll have to tune in to find out.

Fun Friday: 5 Fall Vehicle Tips You Don't Want To Ignore

Sep 18, 2026 48 min

It's Fun Friday with Motormouth! How'd your week go? Before you head into the weekend, let's take s few minutes to talk about getting your vehicle ready for whatever Winter 2026-27 decides to throw at us. Today I've got five fall vehicle tips to put on your radar: brakes, tires, fluids, wipers and washers, plus headlights and tail lights. Remember, it's not enough to be seen- you need to be able to see, too! I've also got Fall/Winter Tech Tip#11: keep that fuel tank topped up during winter. Less room for condensation means less chance of water freezing where you really don't want it-and no body wants to become a Nova-car:no va!😂 And don't forget, the Dems Brakes series continues Monday as we move into ABS-and why ABS can't save your bacon when the system isn't working properly. Then it's Saturday Q&A! Bring your automotive questions and join me around the workbench for another hour of answers, stories and automotive education. Have a great Friday, take care of. those vehicles, and remember: older is better, mileage doesn't matter - maintenance matters!

Brake Line Rupture: Why Rusty Steel Brake Lines Must Be Inspected

Sep 17, 2026 56 min

A brake line doesn't have to look completely rotten to become dangerous. In this episode, Motormouth explains why continuous inspection of steel brake lines needs to be part of every vehicle service - especially around the brackets and fasteners that secure the lines to the vehicle's underbody. Those little rusty "carbuncles" around a brake - line retaining bracket can be telling you something important. And when a steel line finally ruptures, the brake pedal can go straight to the floor because hydraulic pressure is gone. Motormouth shares a real - world February experience in rural Pendleton, New York, when a brake pedal suddenly went to the floor approaching a sharp, icy corner - and explains what happened next and why knowing your vehicle's emergency braking systems matters. The bigger lesson is simple: don't wait for a brake line to fail before you inspect it. Ask your repair shop to inspect and report on all the metal brake lines every time the vehicle is serviced. If corrosion is progressing, deal with it before you need those brakes in an emergency. A little prevention today can prevent a very bad day tomorrow. #Motormouth #BrakeSafety #CarMaintenance More Episodes and ......project Details & Links are available at Car connection Business Network.com ccbusnet.com you'll find everything on our home page if you'd like to follow the build & Repair work we do & connect with our program partners, click their logo to meet them, Thank You for giving them your business, we need them & YOU TOO FRIENDS👍❤️ How can you support Motormouth......
