Thanks to our Partner, NAPA Autotech TrainingIn this episode, Matt Fanslow dives into listener-submitted questions, covering a wide range of automotive diagnostic and repair topics. From personal influences in the industry to technical advice on exhaust gas analyzers, catalytic converter testing, and ADAS calibrations, Matt shares his insights and expertise.1. Who Do You Try to Emulate?Matt reflects on the mentors and industry leaders who have shaped his approach to diagnostics and repair.TV Doctors vs. Real Mentors: While he jokes about emulating fictional doctors like Hawkeye Pierce, Gregory House, and Perry Cox, Matt credits real-world experts like John Thornton, Randy Burkholder, Jim Kemper, Matthew Ragsdale, Harvey Chan, and John Riegel for their influence.The Value of Deep Research: Matt highlights the importance of studying SAE documents, technical manuals, and foundational books like Internal Combustion Engine Fundamentals by John B. Heywood.Thought Leaders in the Industry: He also mentions Jim Wilson (ScanShare.io), Scott Manna, and others for their diagnostic methodologies and problem-solving approaches.Takeaway: Success in automotive diagnostics comes from continuous learning, leveraging industry resources, and adopting best practices from experienced professionals.2. Exhaust Gas Analyzers – What to Look For?A listener asks about choosing the right exhaust gas analyzer for their shop. Matt breaks down the key features:PC/Android Interface: Essential for graphing gas readings (lambda, air-fuel ratio) over time.Portability: Needed for on-road testing to monitor performance under real driving conditions.Fast Sample Times: Look for analyzers with low transfer delays (under 5 seconds) for accurate real-time data.Cost Consideration: Expect to invest 5,000–5,000–7,000+ for a quality unit. Takeaway: A good exhaust gas analyzer should provide real-time data logging, lambda calculations, and portability for effective diagnostics.3. Testing Catalytic Converters – Temperature vs. PCM DiagnosticsA student questions the validity of using infrared thermometers to test catalytic converters after hearing conflicting advice.PCM Algorithms Are Superior: Modern vehicles use complex oxygen storage calculations—far more accurate than manual temperature checks.Why Temperature Testing Falls Short:A "bad" cat might still pass a temp test.A "good" cat might fail due to external factors (exhaust leaks, sensor issues).Best Practice: Trust OBD-II diagnostics, fuel control verification, and factory procedures over manual methods.Takeaway: Always verify fuel control, exhaust integrity, and PCM data before condemning a catalytic converter.4. ADAS Calibrations – Troubleshooting Static Windshield Camera IssuesA technician struggles with static calibrations for windshield-mounted cameras. Matt offers troubleshooting tips:Check the Windshield Glass: Aftermarket glass is a common culprit for calibration failures.Lighting Conditions:Too much LED glare? Try diffusers or dimming shop lights.Use shipping blankets to reduce reflections on the hood/dash.Target Placement: Ensure the target is positioned per OEM specs—avoid background interference.RTFM (Read the Factory Manual): Always follow OEM procedures for target setup.Takeaway: Calibration issues often stem from glass quality, lighting, or incorrect target alignment—double-check these factors first.Listener Q&A Submission: Have a question for Matt?

En las tardes de los días 2 y 3 de mayo, se produjeron fuertes tormentas acompañadas de granizo, especialmente en una franja desde el norte de la provincia de Teruel hasta la zona de los Monegros de Huesca, incluyendo las comarcas de Zaragoza, Daroca y La Almunia, en Zaragoza. Los daños podrían alcanzar las 20.000 hectáreas de cereal de invierno. Nuevamente, el 9 y 10 de mayo se registraron fuertes tormentas de lluvia y, en algunos casos, de pedrisco en los términos de Tauste, Boquiñeni y Gallur (Zaragoza); Gurrea de Gállego y Alcalá de Gurrea (Huesca) y otros puntos de la comarca de La Jacetania. Se estiman, al menos, otras 7.000 hectáreas afectadas en explotaciones de cereal, maíz, alfalfa, viña, hortalizas, cereza, almendro y frutales. El Ministerio de Agricultura, Pesca y Alimentación ha publicado hoy en el Boletín Oficial del Estado (BOE) el extracto de la convocatoria para la concesión directa de subvenciones a las explotaciones agrarias de titularidad compartida para el ejercicio 2025, dotada con un presupuesto total de 1.8 millones de euros. Con apenas producción en marzo, la producción de vino en los ocho primeros meses de la campaña 2024/2025 ha subido un 9,6%, hasta los 31,1 millones de hectolitros, respecto al mismo periodo de la campaña anterior, según datos de la Interprofesional del Vino de España (OIVE). Reunión en el Servicio Provincial de Huesca del Departamento de Agricultura de Huesca para repasar el acceso a la financiación para los jóvenes agricultores.

Esto es un extracto de la tertulia de AutoFM que se emite cada jueves en Onda Cero En este episodio te contamos por qué el nuevo Dacia Bigster se ha convertido en nuestro Coche del Mes y entra oficialmente como candidato a El Coche de la Radio y el Podcast AutoFM 2026. Un modelo que representa la culminación de una historia que comenzó en 2004 con el Logan, el coche que permitió acceder a un vehículo nuevo por solo 6.000 euros. Desde entonces, Dacia ha mantenido una filosofía clara: ofrecer lo esencial, ni más ni menos. Lo justo para el cliente, sin añadir extras innecesarios que encarezcan el precio. Así llegaron éxitos como el Dacia Sandero —el coche más vendido en España y Europa en 2024—, el Duster, SUV más vendido a particulares, o el Jogger, el 7 plazas más barato del mercado. Ahora, el Bigster entra en el competido segmento C-SUV, un mercado que mueve 3 millones de unidades al año en Europa y que en España creció del 10% al 15% en solo un año. Con un precio de partida de 25.000 euros, entra con fuerza en un segmento donde el precio medio supera ya los 38.000 euros. El Bigster es robusto, práctico, preparado para el campo, y con una excelente relación entre calidad, precio y habitabilidad: 4,57 m de largo 702 litros de maletero ⬆️ 22 cm de altura libre al suelo 6 colores, llantas de 19", carrocería bitono Doble pantalla digital, conectividad inalámbrica ❄️ Climatizador bizona, consola configurable, portón trasero eléctrico Mejor insonorización y nuevos ADAS (con frenado autónomo ante peatones y ciclistas) Además, llega con una gama de motores etiqueta ECO: 1.8 Hybrid 155 cv fabricado en Valladolid 1.2 GLP Mild Hybrid 140 cv (hasta 1.450 km de autonomía) 1.2 gasolina Mild Hybrid 130 cv 4x4 Y versiones adaptadas al uso: desde el acabado Essential hasta los más equipados Journey y Extreme, este último con equipamiento orientado al off-road y elementos como control de descensos, techo panorámico y modos de conducción específicos. Dacia sigue construyendo su marca sobre tres pilares: Una gama completa y racional La electrificación accesible (Spring desde 40€/mes) La conquista del segmento C-SUV con el Bigster Dale al play y descubre por qué este coche no solo es importante para Dacia, sino para todo el mercado europeo.

Esther Cañadas Cano - Programa "El alma de las Palabras" - Jueves 8 de Mayo.

Esto es un extracto de la Tertulia de AutoFM que se emite cada jueves en Onda Cero. ¿Qué sucede con la seguridad vial cuando no hay electricidad? Semáforos y señalización apagados En un apagón masivo los semáforos dejan de funcionar y los paneles de mensaje variable se apagan, lo que elimina dos de los pilares del control del tráfico urbano y periurbano. El resultado inmediato es un aumento del riesgo de colisión en los cruces y rotondas hasta que agentes de policía pueden regular la circulación manualmente o se instalan generadores portátiles. Pérdida de alumbrado público La ausencia de iluminación en calzadas y arcenes reduce drásticamente la distancia de detección de peatones y obstáculos. Estudios internacionales vinculan la falta de luz con incrementos de hasta el 30 % en la siniestralidad nocturna. Inoperatividad de túneles y pasos subterráneos Los sistemas de ventilación, bombeo y videovigilancia dependen de energía continua. Cuando el suministro cae, muchos túneles se cierran por seguridad, lo que traslada el tráfico a la superficie y añade congestión en ejes alternativos. Infraestructura ferroviaria y transporte público paralizados Metros, cercanías y tranvías suspenden el servicio, forzando a miles de usuarios a buscar transporte privado. Esa migración repentina al vehículo particular o al taxi incrementa la densidad de tráfico y la exposición al riesgo viario. Vehículos eléctricos y sistemas embarcados Los coches eléctricos que circulan no se ven afectados de inmediato, pero la red de recarga pública queda fuera de servicio. Además, funciones de seguridad basadas en conectividad – SOS eCall, navegación dinámica, ADAS que dependen de la nube – pueden sufrir interrupciones si las antenas de telecomunicaciones pierden alimentación. Gestión de emergencias y tiempos de respuesta El 112 y los centros de control de tráfico disponen de grupos electrógenos, pero la saturación de llamadas y la falta de cámaras urbanas dificultan priorizar recursos. Durante el apagón de abril se notificaron más de 500 incidencias de ascensores y decenas de colisiones leves nada más quedar sin luz los semáforos de Madrid. Medidas de mitigación recomendadas Generadores o baterías de respaldo para cruces críticos y túneles clave. Planes municipales de señalización provisional (triángulos luminosos, conos y agentes). Campañas de concienciación: ante semáforo apagado, la prioridad se rige por norma de intersección sin señal (cede el paso). Refuerzo de patrullas en zonas de alta densidad y difusión de itinerarios alternativos por radio y redes móviles que aún dispongan de energía. Consejo al conductor Si la red eléctrica cae, reduzca la velocidad, aumente la distancia de seguridad y anticipe que otros usuarios pueden no respetar prioridades. Evite desplazarse salvo necesidad estricta y, si debe hacerlo, equipe el vehículo con linternas, power-bank y chaleco reflectante extra. Como recordó la DGT durante el apagón, «extremar la prudencia salva más vidas que cualquier semáforo».

Es la primera valoración que los agricultores monegrinos han podido llevar a cabo después de la tormenta de granizo que caía este viernes por la tarde.El Gobierno de Aragón va a estudiar la posibilidad de llevar al Tribunal Supremo el real decreto que regula una concesión de ayudas directas a la sequía por valor de 20 millones de euros para las provincias de Almería, Alicante, Castellón, Murcia, Valencia y Tarragona que el Gobierno de España ha aprobado este martes.Las emisiones de amoniaco producidas por el sector ganadero se han reducido un 16,7 % entre los años 2005 y el 2023. Zaragoza acogerá el próximo 23 de mayo la Lonja Nacional del Ovino y la Mesa Nacional de Precios del Ovino. Desde Fundación Pastores, dentro del Proyecto BEEP, están conformando un grupo de trabajo para fomentar y asesorar en el relevo generacional en las explotaciones de ganadería extensiva en las zonas rurales. España y China firman un nuevo protocolo para exportar carne de ave española al país asiático.El Fega aprueba nuevos criterios para aplicar penalizaciones por condicionalidad social de la PAC que pueden llegar al 15% de los cobros.La campaña de fruta de hueso comenzará con un ligero retraso, presenta buenos calibres y calidades y muestra poca afectación por el granizo de las semanas pasadas, según se expuso en el Comité de Fruta de Hueso de Fepex.Bolea prevé una temporada de gran producción de cereza. La campaña lleva un ligero retraso en las variedades más tempranas y la feria de la localidad está fijada para el 15 de junio.Castejón de Valdejasa servirá este sábado mil raciones de conejo escabechado en su tradicional feria, declarada Fiesta de Interés Turístico de Aragón.La localidad zaragozana de Épila acoge los próximos 3 y 4 de mayo la XIX edición de la Feria Agrícola, Comercial y Ganadera de Valdejalón, que esta ocasión podrá volver a contar con animales --caballos, ovejas, vacas, cabras, gallinas o conejos--, después de dos años en los que no se pudo contar con ganado por motivos sanitarios.

El peregrinaje no es un viaje cualquiera, sino que supone un símbolo de nuestra predisposición a transformarnos espiritualmente.

In the latest edition of the No-Till Farmer podcast, brought to you by NewFields Ag, Associate Editor Mackane Vogel talks with John Cussans, a weed biology and weed management specialist with the ADAS — provider of agricultural and environmental consultancy, policy advice, and research and development — based in the U.K. Cussans addresses multiple confirmed cases of glyphosate resistance in the U.K. and how these cases differ and relate to confirmed cases of glyphosate resistance in the U.S., as well as what role cover crops might play in cases of glyphosate resistance.

In this episode of DriveTime, as the VISION conference kicked off in Chicago, Bill Long, president and CEO of MEMA, The Vehicle Suppliers Association, and Paul McCarthy, president of MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers, addressed supplier sentiment about the current state of the aftermarket, describing it as a mix of urgency and cautious optimism. Industry leaders agree there's never been a more critical time for suppliers to come together, given the wide range of challenges: tariffs, shifting sourcing strategies, profitability pressures, the REPAIR Act, consolidation, and talent and technology concerns. VISION's mission to clarify what success looks like now — and in the future — has never been more relevant.Resilience and OpportunityDespite these challenges, there is strong resilience and opportunity in the aftermarket, stressed Long and McCarthy. While 2024 wasn't a standout sales year, midterm indicators — vehicle age, miles driven and VIO — remain solid. Technology, especially ADAS, is emerging as a key growth area. New research shared at VISION signals that innovation may soon deliver real gains in efficiency and margin. As near-term disruption continues and long-term strategies evolve, suppliers are relying on collaboration and insight to move forward.REPAIR Act Automotive Impact: Supplier Sentiment and Industry Outlook The REPAIR Act (H.R. 1566) is considered essential for the industry's future, Long and McCarthy stressed. Introduced by Rep. Neal Dunn (R-FL-02), this bipartisan bill protects consumer choice, fair market competition and property rights — especially as telematics and over-the-air updates create new barriers. Long and McCarthy emphasized the urgency of passing the bill within this Congressional session — the next 20 months — and underscore that victory will come from continued grassroots action and engagement at the local level.To hear more details about Long's and McCarthy's aftermarket perspective, make sure to watch the video above.Episode Overview:• Supplier sentiment about the current state of the automotive aftermarket (1:10)• Legislative issues and the impact to supplier member businesses (6:02)• Current state of affairs of REPAIR Act legislation (12:36)• Goals of the MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers Training Council (19:25)• Aftermarket Outlook 2025…what did MEMA get right and what did MEMA get wrong?

It's by George Budwell and featured on finance.yahoo.com. Here are a few quotes on what he says about each of his recommendations. “1. Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) has established a dominant position as the leader in AI hardware and software, with CEO Jensen Huang recently declaring that the ‘vast majority' of AI inference runs on their platforms. Despite being down 12.3% year to date, Nvidia shares now trade at 26.2 times forward earnings, a historically low multiple that creates an attractive entry point for this wide-moat business. The company roadmap includes Blackwell Ultra arriving later this year, followed by Vera Rubin in 2026 and Rubin Ultra in 2027, providing a clear growth trajectory… While several tech giants are investing in custom chips and Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) is developing competing GPUs, Nvidia's unified hardware and software ecosystem and expansion into new AI domains position it to maintain market leadership for years to come. This combination of technical leadership, ecosystem lock-in, and strategic expansion into emerging areas makes Nvidia an essential infrastructure provider for the entire AI revolution. 2. Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOG) (NASDAQ: GOOGL) has evolved into a technology powerhouse, with business lines spanning from advertising to cloud computing and AI. Despite being down 12.7% year to date, the search titan's stock trades at just 18.6 times forward earnings, offering compelling value in the ultra-high-growth tech sector. While Google Search remains the primary revenue driver, Alphabet is investing heavily in AI to improve its search capabilities and bolster its competitive positions in cloud computing, agentic AI, and robotics… Though regulatory scrutiny remains a concern regarding its search dominance, the company's diverse capabilities across digital advertising, cloud infrastructure, and AI development position it as a cornerstone technology investment with multiple growth vectors beyond its core search business. So, if you're building an AI-themed portfolio, Alphabet scans as an essential stock to own. 3. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is a leader in cloud infrastructure and AI, driven by its Azure platform and strategic partnership with OpenAI. Following a 7.2% year-to-date decline, the tech giant's shares trade at 26.1 times forward earnings, presenting an attractive entry point into this high-growth sector. Microsoft stock, after all, was trading at over 35 times forward earnings around this time last year… With cloud adoption accelerating and AI integration expanding across its product suite, Microsoft is exceptionally well positioned for sustained growth. As a result, this tech stock represents a core play in both cloud infrastructure and large-scale AI deployment, making it a cornerstone holding for AI investors.” End quotes. -------------------------------------------------------------- One additional article link Title: 10 Pro-Life Companies to Invest In Now on insidermonkey.com.

Chinese car brand GWM just installed a dude named Rob Trubiani as their head of engineering. He's the guy who spent 15 years making Holden's ride and handling so damn excellent. Oh, and he set the lap record for a commercial vehicle at the Nurburgring, in a VF SS-V Redline Commodore Ute. So there's that. His mission is A) fix the ride & handling, and B) fix the intrusive, ineffective ADAS. GWM is on a roll. This cannot possibly end badly.Check out Brett Davis's channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@drivingenthusiastaustraliaSave thousands on any new car (Australia-only): https://autoexpert.com.au/contactGet a great deal on home solar (or add a quality battery to your existing setup): https://autoexpert.com.au/solar
