    Each photo & video described.
    These videos are meant to be educational but also funny, so if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!
    0:00 Intro
    0:05 A new engine got installed and the customer paid for it.
    0:25 Brake pads and brake rotors were too small. Always check the old ones you are taking off when replacing brake pads, rotors, and other parts. Could save you a lot of time and money.
    0:37 The customer failed the inspection again and told the customer they need to be repaired properly. The customer decided to get the shop to install new brake rotors and pads.
    0:52 The customer did not know they had a spare key in the center console as they said they thought they left a spare key in the safe at home.
    1:01 An inline fuse should be installed for the power cable for the amp and as close to the battery as possible. The customer declined repairs for the sound system.
    1:14 The rattling noise was caused by the upper control arms. The technician had to remove the medals pinched between the glove box to find the noise.
    1:26 There was not a cabin air filter where the engine air filter should be, in case you are wondering.
    1:34 Hubcap and center cap. The technician said was wondering why.
    1:38 No extra info.
    1:46 Ford Focus with dual-clutch automatic transmission. Had the typical transmission shudder. Since the vehicle was bogging down due to the "spinny thing" he could not accurately diagnose the issue using a scan tool.
    2:02 Mass airflow (MAF) sensor was not installed. It measures the amount of air entering the engine.
    2:10 The technician has no clue how this got here and said he definitely did not fake this as he is flat rate (paid by the job, not hourly).
    Let us know what you think about how those got there.
    2:19 The technician said he has no clue why somebody would put JB weld on an engine oil filter as they are fairly cheap, and if it leaked out all the oil while driving the customer would have most likely needed a new engine.
    2:28 The shop welded the differential axle tubes and plugs.
    2:40 The technician said this was on a Jeep but did not mention the model. Also apparently "another shop" did this. The technician told the customer to bring it back to that shop and never heard back from the customer after that.
    2:47 The technician didn't mention or was informed of what happened.
    Maybe the PTU (power transfer unit) broke and took out the driveshaft and cv axle in the process.
    3:04 The vehicle came in for a recall.
    3:21 Outro. Thanks for watching!

      You'll probably find that most engines would last that long with the factory oil. Remember, the engine has reached total failure there, so that's why the oil change interval is set far lower than that (12-15k miles or 1 year), to avoid ever getting close to that.

    Was a mechanic for almost 20 years- seen engines siezed due to lack of an oil change only twice. Once was a car just out of warranty with the factory oil, once was a street sweeper the opperator was only adding oil & not bringing it in for scheduled replacement. Both customers were super upset at us due to cost & down time of repairs - excepted zero responsibility for it.

    I knew a nurse who said "I'm never buying a lexus again." We said why? She said it suddenly died. Well that's weird. Did you do regular oil changes and maintenance checks? She said " you don't need oil changes! I've had it for 10 years. They don't do that anymore." My thought was should I be worried that a Nurse is dumb enough to believe you don't need an oil change or possibly she might not be smart enough to do her job. Oil always breaks down.

    My last car did almost exactly 78000 miles without an oil change and ran like a sewing machine (in fact it's the only car I've ever sold as a runner). I changed the oil when I got it because I didn't know what had been put in there by previous owners, and I changed the oil filter about every 5000 miles, as recommended to me by a one-time engine designer. BUT: it was basically a 1960s- design engine and I wouldn't necessarily be quite so cavalier with a modern one. My engine designer source was at work in the middle of the 20th century and dead before the 1990s.

    My uncle, an airplane pilot, way back in the early 70's, came to our house. My dad and him were talking and dad ask him about oil changes. He had a brand-new Caddy, had put on 40,000 miles and never changed the oil. this was when you changed oil every 3000 miles. Here he was a pilot and they had to worry about the planes they flew and proper maintenace. He never thought about his car. I am sure my dad made him take it to the caddy dealership and have them work on it. He was so lucky my dad was there. BTW Great video. I was worried for a couple of days. Glad we got one today!!

      To be fair not too much has changed you should still change your oil by the 5,000 mark, all those oils that claim to go 10 or 20K are complete bullshit. They are just as dead at 5,000 miles as the old oils.

Yet my 19 year old car runs as well as it did on the first day it left the dealership. How is that possible?1. a detailed and computerized list of repairs by date and mileage; 2. a separate detailed and computerized list of servicing and parts replacement at the next shop interval; 3. buying parts in advance of taking the car into a shop; 4. listening, writing down recommendations.

      I blame the invention of electronic ignition and long lasting spark plugs! When cars had points and condensers, the points would need replacing at about the same time the oil would need changing. And the plugs might start getting weak by the next oil change. All of this demands that the owner be mindful of maintenance.
      In any case, the points eventually wouldn't do their job and the car wouldn't start. A built in protective device to compel servicing! The car would then taken in for a tune up. At the same time, the garage would look at the dipstick and recommend an oil and filter change while it's there. Maybe even upsell a new air filter as well!
      Even though I hated points and condensers, they often forced the car owner to open the hood and peruse around to see what else might be wrong. Computers automatically compensate for wear and tear, which means the car runs well for a long time and the owner has no idea of what's really happening.

    So I show up and start with the driver side axle, notice it’s weirdly easy to remove, and it turns out the engine side of the axle had completely broken off. After pulling the axle, I had to pull the other end of the axle out of the tranny’s output.
    Idk how they managed to drive that car home, but they did say it had some really weird handling. Something tells me that’s the culprit. Or at least, one of the culprits anyways.

    I recently upgraded the modular PSU in my gaming PC, but my new AIO cooler would not work properly and I spent 3 agonizing days trying to figure out why, even exchanging the cooler for another one only to have the same problem. During the build, I ran out of SATA power cables, so I borrowed one from the previous PSU, and I later found out that since the two PSU's were different brands, the cable I borrowed had a different pin-out arrangement in the socket than the new one, so the AIO cooler was not getting the proper voltage. Once I replaced it with a SATA power cable with the correct pins, the problem was immediately solved, but I felt REALLY stupid, since I've been building gaming PC's for almost 20 years. (Never too old to learn something new.) However, I still don't feel nearly as stupid as the owners of these cars.

      I've heard its VERY dangerous to use different psu cables, as they can cause some fuckery within a system unit, so it is best advised to use the cables that came with the PSU you currently have, thankfully nothing went wrong in your build tho!

    1:03 I had a similar situation happen to me back when I used to work for Jimmy Johns. I was a delivery driver, almost always worked evenings / closing, and the closing manager's car wasn't starting. Thinking maybe it was just a dead battery I pulled out my jumpers to help him out. Before connecting the jumper I noticed something off about the plugs. The Power wasn't securely fastened to the terminal. I think I used a gerber to tighten it and his car started right up. Funny thing was the store manager had a garage he and his friends used as a side gig and was the one that had worked on his car.

    First clip, my mom finally got a brand new car just after Covid hit. Didn't get an oil change for 15,000 miles, was already ticking. I had to take it off of her and do it myself. Felt so bad for the car. Ain't no way her motor would have made it to 78000.
    Edit: By the time she traded it in at 45,000 miles, it needed a timing chain at the minimum. Meanwhile the vehicle she traded it for, same mileage and same engine model/year, was definitely treated correctly.

      Ngl i did the same but i got mine right before covid and didnt keep it in mind since i was stuck at home most of the time and barely drove, then i noticed it was 15000 and went ohshit. Now i do it every 5000 no matter what. Hopefully i didnt fuck anything up the first time, its at just past 30k and it still runs like the day i drove it off.

      45.000 miles sounds a bit low to change the timing belt, not that it would hurt. I do it every 100.000km (~62000). I also recommend changing the tensioner and water pump whenever you do so, theyre sure to need replacement, and it wont cost you extra labor.

    amusing - my father worked in a gas station when he was young but as an adult never changed the oil in the family pontiac. He would just add oil when the oil light would come on. When the car stopped working well, he gave the car to my mother. She took it to a mechanic. They took the engine apart to clean out all the sludge. It never ran well so they gave the car to me. It died in the college parking lot and i had it towed to a junkyard.
