- Hey Good People,
I have my little sister's BMW suv in the shop this week. Some of you may have noticed it before. I did a video tutorial on the water pump in the past. I've been telling her to get rid of that car! When it comes to these European cars, you have to pay to play. Meaning, the maintenance is expensive. Not to mention these cars have their common issues!
She use to have a Honda Odyssey, and in my professional opinion, it was the best vehicle for her. In this video I diagnose her vehicle and go over what the vehicle needs. I hope she starts listening to her big brother. I want the best for her. - Zábava
When celebrities sell products that is a red flag to me, like car warranties or that FTX scam.
Ive always said there needs to he a tax or some accountability measure when people use their celebrity to push products
I love the big brother "told you lil sis" vibe all through the video, especially when you showed her 'body repair.' ☠️ Listen to your older brother about cars especially when they a dang mechanic!! 😂
I spent 4000 on endurance wouldn't even replace a compressor because they said the seal on the front of compressor went but it wasn't locked up. They are pure trash and trickery
10 year old bmw. What could go wrong?
What could go wrong with just about any BMW? Lots.
Hate to say woman especially young ones so not take care of car ,just put the key in and if it starts there good who cares if there is no oil in it ,and over heats
@@wendwllhickey6426I agree. Trust me I have learned my lesson.
Too many people that can’t afford them buy them, and then the amount of deferred maintenance just keep piling up until the car is essentially mechanically totaled.
You and the wife are good people..... Hard working.... keep the videos. Love her Zen Moment Stop listen to the birds enjoy the day....
I would have made that Pontiac person prepay the bill. Especially with the history of that car. No way I'm going to work on that car without at least $500 in my account
Can you do a video more in depth about when people leave their cars? Have you ever had people try to claim a car a good while after?
That car looks like it had a jaw abscess 😂😂
🤣😂🤣
2003 Range Rover w the 4.4 BMW V8 actually a good engine for Euro standards but yes it’s been HIGH MAINTENANCE 💵 runs great redid the timing chain at 200k miles and I’ve replaced everything w GENUINE parts. It’s at 227k miles now had it almost 12 yrs. My Lexus SC430 though is my daily 😂 have a good one guys I like your videos
All for the show. Get you a honda
That BMW looks like a money pit. When i saw that rear quarter panel tape body work i was like oh my goodness. My friend had the V8 X5 2013 i believe and left it in his garage because he was tired of it draining his pockets CONSTANTLY... Thousands into it. Thanks for the vid as always you two!
They are and european cars in general I recently watched a video from The car wizard ( great chanel also ) and on an audi they had to disasemble the front cover and timing belt just to change the thermostat
You’ll are speaking the truth regarding extended warranties.
I purchased a warranty for my older car and I added seals and gaskets to my plan.
Took it to the dealer for oil change and they informed me my valve cover gaskets were leaking.
if it wasn’t for me adding that package to my plan I would’ve been out of pocket for that work. Needless to say you as a consumer will need to read the fine print
How u dont have more than a 100,000 subs is beyond me!!Good channel.
Just waiting on the algorithm to pick me 🙋🏽♂️👨🏽🔧
Alex you are so lucky to have Shon, she is a very smart lady
Shon is lucky to have Alex
when your dealing with such a tight squeeze - shoved in radiator, too tight fan... you don't have time for thinking about the birds
I wouldn't be able to hear the birds with all the bad words I'd be saying lol
😂😂 omg you guys are amazing. Ty for the insights. Bless you
😂 8:24 this was awesome lol and Completely agree with Alex the car Doctor when it comes to trying to tell someone "listen to me", It's like trying to help someone Beforehand, Like I tell people Now listen to me And just don't hear me, Metaphorically speaking, It's also kind of like saying, now are you watching and not just looking or glancing, So when someone says listen to me, Absorb the information, Calculate, Understand intent and conclusion, And ultimately make an educated decision and act on that, "listen to me", Thank you keep up the good content 💯.
Grand Prix would be a great flip car if you can find a good cheap engine. Had one with 360k miles original motor and transmission with ice cold a/c
I knew it would the radiator once you pulled out that chunk of the fan
I mean it is Georgia maybe your nephew saw a dukes of hazzard episode and wanted to try tor himself lol
Finally upgrade the light stream light wedge is the way to go got one myself
😂😂😂 tell sis send that car to you before all that starts happening 😂
Turbo bmw 😂😂what could go wrong, my N52 2010 Xdrive30i over 240k running strong. Preventive maintenance is KEY, parts aren’t that expensive but then again if you LET IT DETERIORATE over time then yes it will get expensive. That’s why I love working on vehicles. A lot times people don’t know how to work on vehicles and throw them away, I’d put an engine in that Grand Prix and ride all day long 😂
intake off, pieces everwhere - tell that guy you prescribe a 93 celica
One of my family members got an Audi SUV after I told her she would regret it after it emptied out her bank account and it did! I tried hard Alex, but sometimes they got to learn the hard way:P
Well, it's a Beamer, it's supposed to be leaking something somewhere 😂😂😂
Lol why listen when she got you😂😂
i wonder if the warranty company didn't cover becuase it was all caused by road hazard - seems like I would try my regular car insurance
It probably wasn’t cover because the damage wasn’t due to normal wear and tear.
These car warranty companies are a money grab…yikes.
@@antoniomarc7174 There is probably no way that they can pay to run commercials all day , and still stand behind what they are talking about .
great video guys.
Fan and rad
don’t want to put down any particular brand of car because I love just about all cars and I know many are loyal to certain brands but in my opinion the best vehicle insurance is to buy a Honda or Toyota product.
Why am I not surprising they fixing a mini cooper in the background.
Regular tap water has stuff to mess up for cooling system? Agreed, to some degree the chemicals added to our tap water are detrimental; are you saying you use filtered water when you mix your coolant? Pretty sure prestone and the like use basic "tap" water. Regardless, running only water, and running a water rich mixture, will indeed cause damage as you stated
Prestone and other brands use distilled water in their pre mixed bottles
@ricebike thanks for pointing that out. Absolutely correct, big ol face palm for me. I know they use distilled water. No excuses, simply an incorrect statement. I will leave it alone, hopefully to show others, that being coreected isn't a negative thing. 🍻
Do y’all guys part out cars? Say that abandonment Pontiac, Do y’all sell the alternator or keep the battery?
They don't have the parking space for that type of business...
I actually had a Chrysler 300 fan disintegrated sitting in a drive through at a restaurant. Busted radiator and condenser
BMW high mileage = endless money pit.. if you want luxury buy a Lexus it’s a Toyota = reliability
Damn neph!!!!
Alex you are so wrong, having your wife screaming like that… 😂😂😂😂
Whew honey i had Endurance worst company ever!! Scammers! They don’t want to pay for nothing at all!
oh no, no, no baby sister.... Listen to the car doctor. you don't want BMW. lets find you an 85 accord!!
lol I hate the n54 my customer had nothing but problem after problem
I want x6 but im swaping engines drop ls3 in it make a mean play
My type of guy. That’s right LS the world
Nice body work on bmw haha
Should have done compression test before putting back together
i didn’t need to do a compression test at all. I told him he needed an engine before touching the car. He insisted that I put it back together anyway.
You would have saved time and the customer money simple compression test don't have to put intake on to do compression test
❤❤
If you think those parts are outrageous? Wait till you see the prices on Heavy Equipment or Ag Equipment 😂
That’s money making equipment.
How much for the Pontiac?
You can have it
my god the PILES in that shop. you should really reserve like 1 day a month just to clean out from the messes you have to fix. i know that costs money, its time youd have to pay people and not make money, but that would drive me insane to be around all day
Already done boss
Just get a Toyota and take care of it.
Car Shield and Endurance are rip-offs.
lol, us light skin folks need sun because people be talking about we half done lol
🤣😂🤣😂
167,000 and it needs a shock? The rest of the problems were caused by owner neglect and not design flaw. Seems pretty stout to me
My neighbor just brought a 2006 Range Rover sport mine you the 02 BMW 5 SERIES he brought 3 months before stop working 😂😂😂😂
He probably gunned it at an railroad incline to catch air, I know cause I was young once and in an experimental phase with vehicles
40 plus years
BMW = Big Money Waster !! Broke My Wallet
i know how that is no one listens to me like my wife i keep telling her dont drive your suv with a missfire now it has a rod knock i told her to bring it to me but nope i wont fix it now
Never buy a BMW. Electrical nightmares. Never known any owner that hasn't had major problems
Endurance is not the business…
Y'all really on that dude ass about that burgundy Pontiac
Cuz he wrong lol and now he done left it
@@AlexTheCarDoctor lol dang
dine and ditch on a car lol
You can act like you love it
Yeah, but you'd be miserable. There are folks that do that. But that are people like me that actually love what we do.
Radiator leak
these coverage companies are a joke no matter what the damage they play a word game. example throw a rod your at fault (oil viscosity)😂
Yeah i just bought a newer car and dealership tried to sell me extended warranty and i was no sorry not interested
1:56 is that the oil filter ? european cars are weird
Stick to a corolla
I'll give you 5 years guaranteed
Her first mistake was buying a bmw over priced junk
Cars cost to much for the little money you get to work on them
I agree!
No way I buy a BMW. Lexus all day.
Your sister obviously cant keep up with the maintenance
To be fair. The car was given to her. She has a Honda Odyssey now
champaign dreams ginger ale change... smh..take care or your expensive toys.. stop showing out
I'll give you 5 years if that I can guarantee you won't be happy
I’ve already been doing this 18 years 😃 and I’m the happiest I’ve ever been!
Your sister is the reason these cars have a bad name, look at how she treats it. The car didn’t treat her bad. She trashed it
I don’t disagree. The car was gifted to her. It’s high maintenance and she can’t afford it. She’s in a Honda Odyssey now. They don’t require as much maintenance as the BMW
Working on cars is a shit job
Not if you love it!!!!
