Each photo & video described.
These videos are meant to be educational and funny, so if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!
0:00 Intro - Click show more under the video to read more.
0:05 The meme we've seen all around the web. I showed the work order on the top of the video as well to show that it really happened.
0:15 Passenger window slightly open causing the noise the customer heard right after he had the oil changed on his car.
0:31 Since the button on the shifter is pressed in (with the cover on) the vehicle does not think it's in park, so the customer could not remove the key from the ignition. With the pink shifter cover removed the button is not pressed in, allowing the vehicle to be in park and the key removable from the ignition.
0:49 Steering wheel cover sliding on the steering wheel when turning right.
0:58 I've hit steel wheels back into shape with a hammer but with aluminium wheels like the one displayed in the clip, they will most likely crack/break. You could try sending it to a wheel repair shop but most of the time you're better off replacing the wheel.
1:06 If it works it works... That's a first!
1:16 The drain plug could have been easily removed but now it'll be more expensive.
1:30 Take photos or do a quick Google search if you're unsure of the correct routing for a new belt.
1:48 Rear differential housing needed to be replaced. The customer driving in 4x4 will end up causing more damage in the end. Looks like the customer is driving it until the wheels fall off.
1:53 The technician said it sounded like is was talking to him. The noise was from the center support bearing.
2:00 The bill came to over $8000 to have this fixed and the customer had just bought this vehicle not too long ago.
2:19 No electrical issues (that they know of), but looks like there might be! Has a ton of modifications to the truck to hunt for big foot.
2:07 Raw bacon or snake skin? Also, wear gloves when dealing with fuel!
2:47 The lower bolt on the brake caliper was missing causing the brake caliper to rub the inside of the wheel.
2:57 Filmed in Serbia. Taxi that just hit 1 million kilometers.

Looks like a great line up!
I love that the bigfoot guy has some brass knuckles hanging from the roof, like he plans to go mano-a-mano with the creature if he finds it
Sasquatch, rawrrr! Me- come at me brah!
They didn't show the owner though.
What a wacko.
Only thing he'd go toe to toe with is the cops as they're illegal in most jurisdictions.
Your time has come, furry man!
I once worked at an auto parts store and sold a battery for a lawn mower . The customer called back a few hours later and yelled and screamed at me for selling him a defective battery . I apologized and asked him to return it for a full refund . Some time later he entered our store and slammed the battery on the counter and began to yell at me again . I looked down at the battery , removed the two plastic covers from the posts and said it should work now . Without a word he picked up the battery and left our store . The craziest part was that he had actually drilled holes through the sides of the caps so he could connect the battery cables .
yikes
🤣
I would've told him to NEVER come into the store again.
👍@@ffjsb
@@ffjsbNah. That’s when you sell them brake pads and tell them to stop again soon.
That guy hammering the wheels looked exactly how i imagined a customer who declines repairs looks like
Cast aluminum is not forgiving. Guarantee that he cracked them trying to hammer back into shape
I think he was just really working out his intense anger towards his wife after she insisted she could drive his truck just as well as him.
He 'says' his wife caused the damage@@cvn6555
To me he looks like a guy tired of dealing with a dumb wife that destroys vehicles he's paying for, and he isn't worried about how dangerous the wheels would be if he somehow managed to make them round again.
I doubt it was the wife. Three of the wheels cracked sounds more like someone playing with his toy.
I am no mechanic but I think I understand the issue with the "Load bearing Coconut", it was missing a Cocobolt. It is amazing that some people won't shell out for these sort of things.
They're worried the shop will milk the job for more money.
haha very drole :D
I see what you did there! 😀👍
The engine shat itself the other day, so they thought some fibre might help with its fuel digestion problem.
Good one
"Load bearing coconut"
One of the best lines I've heard yet lmao
Lmao
Always look forward to a good laugh with these people. 🤣🤣🤣
Dang, you beat me to it!
LMAO!
Last mechanic was the Professor from Gilligan's Island... 🤣🤣🤣
"Load-bearing Coconut" was not something I expected to hear today, but here we are.
Always remember where you are.
i think its a reference to the tf2 coconut.jpeg
You're fine as long as it follows SAE standards for load-bearing coconuts and is DOT approved.
Yeah, I didn´t have that one on my Bingo Card either
@@subaruxv19 One of the greatest things ever. Delete the Coconut.jpeg, and the game no longer works. Nobody is sure why the Coconut.jpeg is needed to run the game, but there it is.
"Load bearing coconut" and "customer's now ex-boyfriend" ...priceless.
The hidden cameras was a bit creepy, she may need to get a restraining order.
@@Gassit And check for a tracker hidden somewhere in the car.
@@Gassit Ain't no "A bit creepy" about hidden cameras, that's restraining order minimum, pressing charges would be reasonable as well.
Yeah, I think that clip is one for Legal Eagle or something. Definitely more to that story. @@Gassit
Yeah that’s fuckin wild
Never thought I’d hear the words “load bearing coconut” but this channel never fails to amaze me 😂
Where do you buy one of those ?? Asking for a friend.
That, and bacon in the fuel tank.....
I think " uses this vehicle to hunt for bigfoot " was better 🤣
I read this comment and then really dawned on me. Made me laugh so hard. Good one.
Living in the UK, land of wet road salt, I have used the phrase "load bearing paint" many times!
'Tell me all your problems, I want to hear them all' was very sweet.
This would fit perfectly in a Freedom Toons skit!!!! 🤣🤣
That ex boyfriend story is legit terrifying.
I hope she sued him for the damage and got a restraining order and some firearms training.
I won't lie, it's usually the crazy GFs you hear about, but holy crap aren't some people just completely deranged.
@@radosawrudolf4931 That's the difference between "girl crazy" and "guy crazy". "Girl crazy" is smashing windows, headlights, and body parts with a hammer. "Guy crazy" is subtly psychotic, like hidden cameras and GPS trackers.
@@radosawrudolf4931The crazy girlfriend smashes your car windows with a hammer. The crazy boyfriend murder you and your new boyfriend, leaving no one left to tell the story.
I had a customer lie about a bunch of shit about his trade without seeing it, and we bent over backwards to make a deal work on a new car for this guys wife. I needed two additional signatures and couldn't get a hold of him for over a month, but when he finally called back, he was furious with me because, "for the past week the car has been squealing and buzzing and the noise is so loud my wife can't even stand to drive it anymore and it's ridiculous your service department can't even schedule me until 1 month from now!" I tried to walk him through some typical issues like closing all the air vents, having a window cracked slightly on the road, etc., etc.... and finally asked him to drive over that day for us to at least take a listen.
Mfer had a smoke detector with dying batteries in his trunk blaring the alarm for the past week and he never once checked his trunk to investigate the issue. Bruh
Smoke detectors with dying batteries make an intermittent beep not a squealing, buzzing or blaring.
@@teeanahera8949 If it's been unplugged for a week and the battery is near dead they can act up and make all kinds of a racket.
@@teeanahera8949True, but smoke detectors with something holding the "Test" button down, _do_ make a squealing, buzzing or blaring.
I once had a car to check for a bad stink. There was a bunch of rotting food on the backseat!!! Some people just can't put two and two together.
@@HighSierra1500 ...that's five, right? ;)
"load bearing" coconut is my new favourite phrase
The person who shared the clip said it. So props to them!
Thanks for saving me a trip to the garage, I just checked and my load bearing coconut is completely MISSING. I can't believe I put lives at risk driving around like this.
Ɓe sure to go and yell and scream at your service advisor 😂
Watching that mileage role over made my whole day that much better!
So satisfying.
F Kilo Meters @@singlekc
@@singlekc That's still a crazy number of miles, tho. I've only seen one vehicle with more; a 1980s era Ford Ranger with 730 thousand miles. It was in decent condition for all those miles (guy said he's only replaced the seats and had the tranny/clutch rebuilt twice).
@@singlekc bruh million kilometers is still impressive...
@@MrTeddy12397For me it would be, as I dump cars around 200K miles / 300K km.
@@singlekc 621,000 miles seems impressive to me. One of my vehicles (a former taxi) is showing 440,185 miles and it's on its fifth engine, second (manual) gearbox, and currently has the whole front end dismantled as I'm having to basically rebuild everything due to body rust and extreme levels of mechanical wear.
I heard that giggle at the hidden cameras. It takes a lot to catch you off guard xD
I'll wager that the customer who drove away at 1:50 will be back to the shop to have it do the proper repairs to his Explorer AFTER he makes them himself. That's always the case.
You mean after "another shop" has made repairs.
I reckon it will be a front wheel drive Explorer for 6 months
I firmly believe the "previous mechanic" is the owner themself.
Yes they always say another shop or friend did it.
Facts
I lost it with load bearing coconut! Though the Big Foot add-on package is a keeper as well.
The video had it all
“Load-bearing coconut” is officially my new favorite internet term. Definitely gonna use that one later
Ah yes, the ol' load bearing coconut - every engineer's go-to support structure.
Best nut psi for larger repairs
Coconuts worked really well on Gilligan's Island.
@@paintnamer6403 now imagine because it was the 60s everyone on the island was actually stoned and those nuts worked really well🤪
It is nature's triangle.
1:01 Sir, the tires aren't the problem. Your wife's driving is.
Glad my wife can drive 😂
@@JustRolledIn Glad my doesn't drive.
Needed a five pound cross pein not that teeny claw hammer anyhow !!
@@arnimkrause5696 😂
Wonder if he had his wife in mind as he was doing stress-relief on that wheel.
2:20 Hunt for Bigfoot 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes that one got me. A very well-organized vehicle owner.
We live in the country and the sign that says welcome has big foot on it. It's awesome 😂
It's the brass knuckles that get me. Is he going to try to fistfight the sasquatch once he finds him?
On the bright side, I think that's the first time anyone's ever used the term "load-bearing coconut" in an actual sentence, so there's that.
There is just something bizarre about the guy who declines repairs and says he'll fix it himself, when he couldn't troubleshoot the problem to start with. You know the car will be back in a later episode.
In some cases, yes, but not always.
My recent example was a 2019 Jeep Compass. Especially when stopped, the steering wheel clicked when it first moved left or right. It was loud and haptic.
Nothing looked out of the ordinary under the vehicle that I could find. The next step for me would have been taking apart the steering column. If nothing there fixed it, I didn't know where else to check and would have taken it to somebody, even just to have them tell me what needed replaced.
Luckily, a very small group of people online had the same problem and one guy posted of video of the problem that was identical to mine.
The culprit? The steering rack needed some more grease. His was bone dry. Mine had what looked like plenty of grease on both ends, but slathering more on made the noise disappear and months later it is still gone.
That simple repair required me to remove a special, single use clamp over the rack boot that I would not have wanted to remove if I didn't have a reason to. The sound didn't even seem to come from there.
And blame 'another shop' for the problems.
Depends on what needs to be done to get it fixed. Had to get a new subframe installed in my daily and had a garage do that as I don’t have a lift or anyway of getting the engine out. If it’s something easy to fix on my drive I’ll do it myself after I know it’s just that singular problem needing to be fixed.
What the hell hahahahaha@@PGspeed88
No not really. I had a diesel shop quote me $2500 to replace my lifter pump. They said they couldn't get to it without pulling the engine.
I walked to the auto parts store and bought a gasket scraper and a new lifter pump for $35 , then I removed my passenger side wheel well and cut the wheel all the way to the right. It took me about an hour in a parking lot to replace (with borrowed tools as I was 150 miles from home. Never had another problem for the next 3 years I owned the truck before selling it.
Funny thing is, that was the first time in my whole life that I've taken my car to a shop, because I was finally making enough money that I could afford to, just for some dickhead to try and rip me off.
The deadpan "load-bearing coconut" is some next-level humor.
An ex boyfriend story: I grew up in the late 1960's and early 1970's fixing cars with my dad and rebuilding engines at the local high school auto shop class. I served 5 years in the US Navy as a Machinist Mate in a steam engine-room - which is a heavy mechanics job as you are always fixing and rebuilding stuff. Then I pursued a Mechanical Engineering Degree as I had dreams of being more than a mechanic or operator in a power plant. Upon Graduation in 1985 I purchased a 2 year old used 1983 Ford Escort GT and then purchased the full set of maintenance manuals so I could do my own work.
Key to this story is this engine was an interference engine with a timing belt that needed to be changed regularly (they did not last as long as current belts). For those that know the history of the Escort engines (cast iron block, aluminum head). The GT engine had the robust head that didn't crack - and Ford changed all the production engines for Escorts to that head I think by late 1984 (without the performance camshaft for non-GT cars). Ford replaced a lot of heads on a lot of Escort engines in those days as they often cracked within a few years of ownership.
One day one of the "hot" mechanics at the power plant asked me what I did over the weekend and I replied that I changed the valve seals, installed a new camshaft and lifters, and replaced the timing belt on Saturday (and that did not even take a full day - and went somewhere Saturday evening). He then asked me about changing the timing belt as his girlfriend had a Escort and needed that done. I told him that it was not that hard if he had the right metric wrenches and sockets (and told him the sizes I used), and to be sure to properly line up the "timing" marks when you put the new belt on (I explained what they were and how they had to be lined up). He said that he understood and was off to Sears to buy a full set of Craftsman's metric wrenches and sockets (those are actually high quality tools even if they don't have the finish of Snap-on - Note that I own a set of Snap-on metric deep offset box end wrenches that I purchased to work on that Escort GT).
He came in to work after the next weekend devastated. He forgot to line up the timing marks - and pistons hit valves. His GF demanded that he pay for a new Ford engine and dealer installation, and a rental car until her car was fixed. Then dumped him when she got her car back after he paid for everything. I never heard of him fixing cars again, while I fixed cars for a number of people (even some of the plant staff). I no longer much work on my cars (now in the mid 60's and am not as flexible and robust as I used to be). Changing filters, light bulbs and oil are about all I do now for both me and my wife's car. I sold someone my drum brake tools several decades ago.
My cousin had an 87 with over 300k miles. The drivetrain outlived the chassis. Rear struts punched throttle towers from rust (salt belt). Ford messed up in the mid 90’s to early 2k’s. Changed the head design and they started dropping valve seats.
@@kd7cwgthey went to the split port 2,0 for the base engine
@@kd7cwg I got that car at about 60,000 miles from a "on the road" salesmen. Of course a problem in those days was that seal materials just did not last, which is why I had to change the valve seals and had a hydraulic lifter that wasn't working properly. The Auto parts store actually offered me the "original Factory OEM" seals and parts or aftermarket parts with new seal materials (at a modest cost increase). I took the new seal materials which lasted me for the rest of the life of that car.
About a year later I paid a mechanic to drop the crankshaft and replace the main engine crankshaft seals as they were leaking badly (the car had a manual transmission), again with new seal materials vs the original. That job is best done with a car lift which I did not have and I did not want the misery of doing it laying on the floor.
I drove that car until above 275,000 miles when all kinds of other non-engine non transmission things started to go wrong on it that were costly to repair, and I could see the cost escalating a lot if I kept the car with further degradation.
I do believe that somewhere in there I paid a transmission shop to replace my clutch, and tire shops replaced tie rod ends multiple times (which was required in those days). I believe that I did all other work on the car for the 200,000 + miles over decade (or so) that I owned it. I traded it (very little value) for a 1995 Aspire with only 4000 miles on it - and drove that for over 250,000 miles as well with just normal wear part maintenance and filter and oil changes.
My current 2009 Hyundai Sonata, which I purchased new, has over 300,000 miles on it and everything appears to be in great shape (I did have to replace the muffler this year as the welded seams corroded through after 14 1/2 years). As mentioned in my original post I no longer do much maintenance work myself other than light bulbs, filters, and most oil changes. Other than that only routine brakes, tires, etc with a replacement suspension about 4 years ago. Only 1 replacement set of tie rod ends so far (they last a lot longer now). Of course I run synthetic oils in my cars since Mobile 1 came out.
Interestingly, the 1983 Escort had a extra slippery colloidal suspension of graphite particle oil which the salesman used when I got it which I continued until Mobile 1 came out. That oil was black as the ace of spades right out of the bottle - but worked very well as evidenced by the like new condition of the crankshaft and connecting rod bearings when we dropped the crankshafts to replace the main engine seals with about 100,000 miles on it, with the original Teflon lining patches in the bearings still there - the mechanic was totally shocked as he had never seen such good bearings in a well used car engine - and became a believer in enhanced slippery oils that day.
Have a great day - and may all the good and honest mechanics keep up the good work.
Steering wheel covers not only look tacky and cheap, they're dangerous too.
A quality one that is correctly secured (not just a friction fit) can improve a wheel, but most modern wheels have all the grip and ergonomic shaping you could need. Also, the material they are already made of will be significantly more robust than the cheaper covers. You need to spend a lot to get any real benefit.
If you buy the proper size steering wheel cover for your car they are a bugger to install. I know ‘cause I’ve done it. This person probably got a bigger cover because they couldn’t figure out how to install the proper one.
women put them all over toilets and cars. how sanitary!
They are also illegal in most states but get about the same enforcement as license plate covers and things hanging from the rearview. Although I do know a shop that removes any they find when someone brings a car in.
@@theaikidokaWe only used them when the factory plastic began to get sticky. In the olden days, that was about when the car was three years old.
Never a dull moment in the automotive industry... except the pay.
I am glad someone is finally taking the Bigfoot issue seriously.
What he doesn't know, is Bigfoot already knows him.
That Bigfoot truck had more gadgets than the space shuttle.
"now ex boyfriend"
Best check your bedroom and bathroom for cameras too.
"Customer states" videos make me weep for our society.
"Load-bearing coconut" are three words I never thought I'd hear used together.
"More coconut" the automotive version of "More Cowbell"
Can we go back to the bit where the scumbag (that's putting it mildly) ex-boyfriend installed hidden cameras in his then-girlfriend's vehicle? One has to wonder whether he has previous for that kind of thing...
I’m even more concerned about why he removed an air bag
It's a car, he obviously just didn't trust her to not cheat and wanted to check for other guys, and that sort of toxic possessive behaviour I would say is exactly why he's an 'ex'. I doubt the opportunity to install cameras in his gf's cars comes up frequently so I dunno about a 'history' of that...
Maybe he's planning on recording a little backseat action between himself and his now ex-girlfriend.
@@Tjs736 DVR space.
@@Tjs736 Guessing it was something to do with the cameras but installing hidden cameras like that in someone elses car without their consent is a felony in most states

Snowing here tonight in western Alberta
i was quite surprised also as most of the vectras i have worked on had the engine harness biodegrading in the engine bay (insulation literally flaking off with copper exposed) not fond of most opel cars in australia. lol
I've owned one with the same engine, and it was a great car. Got 350k out of it and had to get rid of it because of local emission rules. Only had to change the alternator once besides normal maintenance. It's probably still going strong somewhere else.
Bacon in the fuel tank is an old shade tree mechanic trick for top end lube. The gas slowly dissolves the pork fat. Of course dogs will follow you wherever you go, that's the downside. ;o)
Man, on Sunday! You are killing me! Great stuff as always. Cheers
The real reason dogs chase cars.
but you can literally just pour in 2 cycle oil for lube and it'll burn clean lol
Well, now we know why dogs have been chasing cars for years. "I know there's gotta be bacon in there!" 🐕
@@TheGuruStud It was a joke
But the exhaust gas smells like a cooked breakfast.😂
"Load-bearing coconut".
I had to replay that a few times to make sure that's exactly what I heard. Certainly the first time hearing that phrase.
That taxi going over 1 million km! Yay!
Now that is true environmentally friendly motoring. If everyone kept their cars for that long, think of the amount of natural resources saved. Superb! 👍🏻🇬🇧😎
Reminds me of a friend of my mom's who owns a taxi company. He just had to replace his entire, almost new fleet of Mercedes E-Klasse's with Tesla's because Schiphol airport (near Amsterdam) only allows electric taxi's to work there. He had to buy like 2 Tesla's for every Merc so they can charge one while driving the other. How "environmentally friendly" is that, I wonder?
@@PrototypeSpaceMonkey ...and of course the huge cost of this has to passed on to the customer.
That taxicab Opel must've been a tired little thing. 1,000,000 km in 18 years is 55,556 km per year. The owner probably kept it running despite the astronomical mileage because it was cheaper than buying a new or slightly used car.
"... If everyone kept their cars for that long..." Don't transfer what you think is the blame to "everyone". If you think it'll help, keep YOUR car that long. I do.
😂 The home light switches on the Bigfoot truck.
I really love your videos, but what I like most is the way you drop jewels in surreptitiously. Load bearing coconut! TOOO good.
Plastic cover left on the battery terminal. 🤣
the meme became reality lol
Imagine having to spend $150 to tow your vehicle because you don't realize that plastic doesn't conduct electricity 😂🤣💀
@VintageCars999 Yes. Same as the ones that have no fuel in the tank.😵💫🤣
2:19 Hope that customer got a restraining order after the mechanic found those cameras. I guarantee shoddy electrical work isn’t the only red flag for that ex.
As a former Army soldier, I take guilty pleasure that the vehicle in the first clip belongs to a Marine. 😁 On the down side, his car sure looks nicer than mine. 😆
I saw the sticker, but I can't vouch for its accuracy. I saw no evidence of discarded crayon rinds.
...they were probably on the passenger seat or in the cupholder, we didn't see that part of the car 😂
He was most likely a POG admin bitch. I can say this as a MARINE. I can see a few things that tell me this.
1: the battery has no hammer marks from the beating it should have taken.
2: lack of crayon wrappers or dirt from the field in the truck.
3: Not one can of Copenhagen or skole anywhere to be seen.
@@themulattomaker2602 He probably sautées the rinds with a pinch of yellow crayon when it's his turn to make dinner.
Gz to the last guy for getting a factory new car just like that!
Strange that cars won't run on Bacon , we all know that everything is better with Bacon !!
Man! It is a good thing that customer paid to get all that wiring fixed! Hidden cameras? what kind of creep was she dating? Also I hope she checked her entire house afterwards!
I wonder where one puts " hunts for Bigfoot " on their taxes. Seems like a legit deductible.
621k miles, still pretty amazing! I wonder what repairs have been made along the way to keep it running?!
@mclarenscca, there are surprisingly many videos about people who've had cars tripping 500,000 and even over 1,000,000 miles! Amazing to hear some stories about how many batteries and other parts they've bought, the number of oil changes etc. I'd be interested to see how many "newer" vehicles can hit half a million to a million+ miles & compare the costs of "maintenance/repairs" with those of older style engines from the 80's, 90's and into 2000. I mean some of "newer" these vehicles experience serious engine/drivability problems leading up to 100,000 miles and certainly beyond that. If they're not needing major engine work, then some of them require cleaning of valves and other components because of the "direct injection" design. I hated the idea that suddenly they began putting the "water pump" behind the timing cover and run it off of the belt/chain and when the bearings wear in the pump, it dumps water right into the oil pan below.... What an absolute stupid design when for decades the water pump remained external to the timing components and at most your coolant just gets dumped on the ground, clearly indicating a pump failure rather than potentially ruining your engine by dumping coolant into the oil pan. Designs that are just beyond stupid.
Congrats to the guy at the end who got to trade in his high mileage (high kilometerage?) vehicle with that newer one that had 0 miles/kilometers on it!
It was kilometers. The guy just rolled over to 1,000,000 km (621,371 miles).
@@aevangel1 Yes, that's why I made a point to mention kilometers. I guess maybe that part seemed like random information to dismiss, for you?

The battery cap, isn’t the first time I’ve seen this. Amazes me how people can “save money” by doing the install themselves then take it to a shop for something so simple. Hope they got charged the full diagnosis fee and the owner will have learned a lesson.
There's no excuse for this level of stupidity. You have the internet in your pocket.
But if you go to like Advance Auto they'll put the battery in for you it's included in the price of the new battery so it's disposal the old one
I've seen it on a couple jump starts. Customer installed the battery, but it still wouldn't crank.
What amazes me is that the terminals actually FIT over those plastic caps... I didn't imagine they would open that far. One was quite stretched and I had to use some copper wire to thicken the post (quick fix because those metal caps sold for the task are pretty darn expensive for what they are).
Manufacturers need to change the shape of those caps so the terminals cannot be placed on them until the caps are removed... add wings or make the darn things square, or something.
You hope someone with zero mechanical know how, gets raked over the coals by some asshole mechanic, just to prove a point?
Gosh, wonder why many auto mechanics aren't as respected, trusted, as they used to be??
P.S. Any opportunity to shame is also an opportunity to teach...
@@codymoe4986 yes. Life lesson.
"load bearing coconut" wasn't something I expected to hear today LMAOOO
Jerry these are load-bearing coconuts, they're not gonna go out!
Every time i watch o e these videos i think people can't get any dumber. The i watch the next one and i am proven wrong. Great channel love the content
Everyone knows that if you're going to hunt for Bigfoot all you really need is the Mystery Machine
and brass knuckles
I guess he's gonna punch bigfoot with those knuckle dusters 😂
This has to be the best video yet, remarkable statement about choices people made
"Load bearing coconut" bruh 😂
0:35 - I was called out to help some lady to get her car started. Even with two fully charged 4kamp jump boxes it would turn over and immediately stall. I happened to notice she had a lot of 'bling' decorating her car and asked her about something I had seen ONLY here, on this channel: The jeweled ring around the ignition switch. I asked her if she had one and she said she did, and had put it on the night before. I had her remove it and the car cranked right up without needing the jump boxes.
She tanks you, Just Rolled In, for getting her out of a jam because her only recourse would have been a tow truck and perhaps a future video segment here. :D
I can sort of see how that happens you wouldn't think that'd effect it, but if you car has a chip key(basically all cars less than 20 years old now adays) I can see how it might.
@@redtra236 Sometimes it blocks the signal from the chip key, sometimes it simply doesn't allow the key to enter far enough.
Since the entire thing was plastic I suspect there was just enough gap to prevent the key staying engaged once it rotated back to the 'run' position causing the vehicle to shut off.
I lost it at "Load bearing coconut" 😂
The 4x4 with the blowen diff was then driven away in 4x4 mode (on the road) had me laughing
Hearing wind noise after an oil change.. gee usually when im hearing wind noise i generally check my windows first, then make sure my doors are shut. These simple problems are getting worse 😂
As a non-mechanic, I had my "customer states, a strange noise is happening, which was a simple fix" moment. It took me about ten seconds as I eliminated causes, but I thought of this channel when I realized what was happening.
I love the picture of the Rolls Royce at the end & I'm surprised there's room for a driver's seat in the Bigfoot vehicle.
I think he's just looking for Big Foot, he doesn't plan on giving him a lift.
I stg “Load Bearing Coconut” has me in shambles rn 😭 💀
Never in a million years would I have thought that I would’ve heard that term 😂
As so many others have said I’m still laughing about the load bearing coconut. As always. Another awesome video.
Load bearing coconut was not a phrase I expected to hear today, but if I did it would be said on JRI.
Load-bearing coconut is a top5 quote on the channel
'Load bearing coconut' - 'Hunting Bigfoot' - OMG - I can't stop laughing!
It's good that a few of these customers who decline repairs are shown. If we drive in the same area we know who to stay away from.
What if you'll find it's majority of your neighbors
@@badscrew4023 Then I'm screwed
That Opel taxi dash was mint. 100K looking that fresh? Props to the owner.
1 million kilometres
@@JustRolledIn If that was a taxi in the UK, driver would put another 10k on the clock then sell it as a 'low mileage' vehicle.
Taxi owners/firms selling vehicles and not declaring previous use as a taxi (required) is such a problem that our version of CarFax now shows up if the vehicle was registered as a taxi.
Pink fluffy cover had me laughing, like you obviously had to drive it somewhere and take the key out of the ignition to then at least intall all those covers... it came out fine then, but then you put the covers on and all of a sudden, key doesn't come out 🤔 what ever could have happened 🤷♂️
That implies the customer is capable of rational thought. If they were, they never would have purchased the fluffy covers in the first place.
“Load bearing coconut” - best thing I heard all day 🤙
Okay so Load-bearing Coconut is a thing now....
Man the battery caps happen a lot, I had to pull them off two different neighbors cars.😂
Lol! It's always a funny one when it happens
As someone who's knows minimal about cars, it's always fun watching people who know less trying to fix them.
@@WhiteG60what i hate is theyre the only profession that can charge for more labor then the time actually spent working on the car just because they have a book that says they can. its all the more annoying when they dont do very good work or try to sell a person more than whats needed.
That Honda Pilot owner dodged a bullet by breaking up with that chump.
Load bearing coconut LOL!!!!!
I did the battery cap thing just a few days ago, but I figured it out right away when I tried to unlock the doors with the key fob. It was the negative post with a black cap. I just forgot to remove it like I did with the red positive post just before. In my defense, the black cap was hard to see in the light I was working with.
But you figured it out without paying for a tow and a diagnostic, or going all rage-beast and taking the "defective" battery back to the parts shop.
So, good on you!
That truck looked ALMOST EXACTLY like what I would expect a Bigfoot hunter to drive!
they find him dead from his own electrocution, with Bigfoot prints on the pass side window.
YEARS AGO,
I was at a gas station when this other guys car would not start. It was a
rental BUT, the rental office was 150miles away. So, being the good guy
that I am, I offered to give him a jump so he could be on his way.
FORTUNEATELY, he was looking away when I connected my cables
BACKWARDS and he didnt see the sparks. I reversed my cables & it
cranked, but, it would not start. I knew I had popped his ECM. I told him
it was something more & he called his rental co & they send out a spare
car for him.
LESSON LEARNED- Pay Attention to What You are Doing.
!
Lmao 🤣 😭
Back in 2004 Canadian Tire used to boost your car if it wouldn't start and if it was in their parking lot. Now they don't because of liability such as killing a PCM. I get sent out into the lot to boost this guy's Ford Escort. I hook up the booster pack. He unhooks it and reverses it because his ground cable is red, the red clamp goes to the red cable, and I'm stupid. It still wouldn't crank. I told him I'd get another booster pack and walked away.
@@HighSierra1500 Thankfully they've modernized quality jumper cables with reverse-polarity protection and my jump boxes start screaming bloody murder if connected wrong.
Early one morning, a friend of mine walked past a woman that could not get her car started.
A man in a Mercedes stopped and offered to help her with a set of jumper cables from his own car.
My friend thought: A woman AND a Mercedes owner connecting jumper cables??? Get away as fast as you can, man!
A moment later, he heard a loud BANG and a scream...
Doing this kind of stuff you must think twice. Electrical are not fun if get wrong.
That's the first time I've seen a hole worn in a diff. Broken, mangled and abused in other ways but never the gear making it's way out without being exploded.
Be careful driving to and fro this Holiday season there's a lot of crazy people driving crap! Seriously please drive safe 🙏
Ok. Thanks Mum . . .
Just make sure you have your load bearing coconut, and you'll be fine.
"Load-bearing coconut"... 🤣
One of your best!
Merry Christmas with all the trimmings!
I'm only good for about an oil change done myself and that's it, but I'm starting to think I could open a shop that only closes windows, removes obstructions from buttons and controls, and takes food out of cars that cause smells. That seems like half of the word based on this channel!
The sad part is that you won't make any money, because all the owners will decline all repairs.
@@61rampy65 Good point! 😂
Don’t forget the gallon of xxxx in the trunk, leaking and causing odors/dripping!
That last 1,000,000 mile rollover was super satisfying!!!!
Load-bearing coconuts and bigfoot hunters with brass knuckles in the same video! Love it!
The load bearing coconut is unironically among the better custom mods I've seen featured here
Cracks me up the amount of so called battery related issues some customers have 😂😂, and as for the guy hitting those rims better hope it's not a alloy rim otherwise once they are bent or cracked they are stuffed.
That guy’s wife had to hit that curb pretty hard to damage those wheels.
@patrickperry6945 I can't believe people decline repairs that are somewhat dangerous if left. Like people not fixing tires, or brakes, etc and they drive off putting people at serious risk.
Pretty sure they are cast. High end cars (roush mustangs) for example came with forged wheels.
I’ve also seen people fail to recognize and remove the plastic caps on the battery terminals.
We had a new guy install wiper blades for a customer. They came back pissed because they smeared worse than the old ones. Lube tech didn’t remove the plastic protective covers off the blades 🤦🏻♂️
@@kd7cwg 😂
"Load-bearing coconut" is not a phrase I thought I'd hear today...
That Honda Civic one man, thats crazy. Good that all those hidden cameras were found though.
