So, in conclusion , because it takes so much experience , this video is useless because you need experience , and obviously this video does not shows how to diagnose a noise because we need experience and if you don't know what that noise is , find somebody that has experience. That's what a learned from this video.

this sucks.. thanks for helping.

fair enough about experience...i get concerned when a mechanic says you need to replace x or y and it always costs a stack of cash. It is good for a layman to have an idea of the sounds and where they come from to help lie-check the mechanic, can you do some sounds on future videos like wheel bearing noises etc.
