Today, I completely mechanically overhaul my Mercedes-Benz S600, that I had basically abandoned for over a year. And spoiler alert, it's way more expensive than I thought.

Love ur vids brother ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻
Sell it to me
Where is the mclaren.
You have become an expert in these ad read transitions.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It feels so good when everything finally works like it should! Nice work dude!
Go to sleep chrisfix...I'm fan bro thanks to you I fix my car and I got into mechanic 🙏🙏❤
@Raccoon Money Drops so fix it
Wasn't expecting to find u here Chris.
You we're the one who showed me first that cars aren't that difficult!
Big propz
@Raccoon Money Drops Being 14 shouldn’t stop you, I fixed my first cars at around that age (2003 Elantra & 2002 Acura 3.2 TL) I’m sure with enough work and motivation you can get that thing ready to be out on the road by the time you get your license.
OMG CHRIS IVE LITERALLT WATCHED EVERY SINGLE VIDEO THAT YOUVE MADE AND I WATCH EVERY SINGKE VIDEO THAT YOU DROP!!! Literally watched ur endurance race one the first 2 hours it dropped =(|) I LOVE YOU TOO FREDDY DONT THINK I FORGOT ABT U BBY BOYYYYYYY LMAOOO but I love y’all both and I literally have my notis on for both of you :) but y’all both haven’t freaking made a new video anytime soon bru:(
T: “Hey the car is telling me that my tires are low, must be a broken sensor”
Also T: *fills tires with air, light disappears*
:O
Ah crud, shouldn't have read the comments. Now its spoiled
Literally tried to spend 10 min sorting a low oil light before ACTUALLY checking the old on my old man's car. Looks like both of us had brain farts 😅
You know there is a tire monitor in the menu with each individual tire's pressure.
"This was repainted... probably at Maaco... Tyler?" had me in stitches. LOLOLOL
If you watch Tylar's show you know he uses a Macco shop for his repainting. He had them do a Maybach! But then he is in Wichita. Would not be surprised that there isn't much to work with.
@@kenj7153 they probably take great pride instead of other macos that only get rust buckets
love how they do eachothers nuts hahaha
2021......Maaco is still a thing?
I laughed too lol
we missed you tavarish hope everything's okay great to see a new video
We ? Who is we ? Because definitely WE don't know eachother 🤣🤣🤣👍🍺
Problem with some of these parts, is when they break you need to put them IN THE BIN
i understood that reference
MCM
🤣🤣🤣
What does this have to do with busting?
Gasp! You don't mean In The Bin of Honda Civic parts?!
One thing I have definitely found out over the few decades of wrenching on vehicles is battery voltage and amperage and grounds mean a whole lot more than people think. Especially in older european vehicles. And now that again as well as domestic vehicles have caught up technology wise they need the same attention to detail as well. Great to see you giving this car the love it deserves to go to a new home. Thanks for another great video and as always stay safe and always remember to wear clean underwear cause you never know what's going to happen. Lol

Fiats have terrible terrible wiring, and now they want to go full electric..
Fiat will die 😂
@@musikdrengen02 I had a Fiat Grande Punto and an Alfa Romeo 156. Sold them with over 120.000 kms in the Fiat and more than 230.000 kms in the Alfa. The Fiat needed a gas pedal sensor, and the Alfa a crankshaft position sensor. That was all.
@T El Why am I supposed to be lying? I have a Hyundai i30 with 120.000kms and 0 problems and a Nissan X-Trail (Rogue) with only 52.000 and 0 problems too, and my least reliable car was a Mazda 3. I'm just telling my experience.
I taught Electronic Control system for the recreational marine market. When talking to techs about troubleshooting, I used to tell them, "if it is doing something weird, it is almost always a ground problem". I stand by that. Not always, but almost always. Besides, it is easy to tell if you have a sensor power or sensor signal problem. The ground is another matter. Edit: Anyhow, you did a nice job explaining what you were doing. It was very clear. Take care.
"This was repainted...Probably at Maaco...Tyler?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀💀
Finally a new video
on a old car and not something new again :)
Car Trek is an awesome series so I'm not sure why a few of you are complaining about the time he has to spend filming that series
Where’s the Mclaren?
First JR and now Tavarish! The S class is having it's day.
Don't forget Legit Street Csrs
The return of the Hoovie’s Silver Elephant!

“How hard can it be?” is actually a timeless catchphrase ever since it appeared as a Tp Gear’s unofficial motto going into pretty much anything.
I think the “(And went BROKE DOING IT)” is a given. 1 Minute.
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
Tavarish wearing VINWIKI T-shirt and talking about hoovies garage... Car treeeek! 😂
Tavarish since you have so many cars from Mercedes why don't you invest in an oil vacuum device?
Mercedes supports the suction method for all of its cars (and many other makes do too). My Mercedes I've had it for 15 years and have never gotten under the car to change the oil. Just set the pump on a compressed air source and you come back and all the oil is in the canister. You then do the filter and O-rings. I just put the replacement oil back in the hole for the filter.. Bigger hole and easier to use.
Just a thought.
Steering column coupling thing is called a rag joint
Glad to see you uploading again bud 👍

“Tyler... you wanna explain this?!”
😆🤣
Look damnit...we need you to finish the manual swap SL!!!
He's still waiting for parts. There never was a manual one and when the computer in the gearbox is missing, it won't run as expected. So there is a lot of work to do!
Mercedes once used a original 190E as mule for a modern drivetrain, they had the trunk full with computers emulating the modern car so the engine could work :D
I think he knows he screwed the pooch on that one, not gonna happen.
No one chimed in to show/tell him how to do it.
@@VolkerHett i was hoping with his new found in-house resources/tools and sponsors he'd be able to get it sorted. He's come a long way since he started that one!
The car that brought me to this channel 24 years ago. LOL
@@VolkerHett na lmao stop plenty of people have done manual swaps for that era of Benz. XF motorsport is just one channel off the top of my head that made it work. Freddy is a great entertaner and a rock solid technician, but he has pretty limited knowledge and skill when it comes to legitimate fabrication for uncharted fixes and swaps. He needs Jared for anything seriously complex. It's not a bad thing though, he's still great at what he does, but he really bit off more than he could chew when he mentioned the manual swap.
Thrilled to have a new video, the best about the little tavarish breaks, is when he's back 😁
Love when you finishing you old projects,keep doing that 👍
Great content always look forward to seeing what up next!!
Awesome video. I bought an S600 last month and it had some similar issues. Fortunately the coilpacks had already been done recently.
I did have some vibrations which were completely eliminated after changing the engine mounts. On my car especially the rear one (transmission end) was totally sagged.
My distronic and park assist did not work also, in my case the central unit somehow lost its firmware.
Lastly i had one ABC strut (right rear) with a failed spring. Swapping was bot hard, disconnecting the “quick connect” hydraulic line was.
It is amazing how well the car rides for a 15 year old machine, totally love it.
Cheers
Still have it?
Thank you so much Freddy. I've got to do the engine mounts on my CL600 soon so I've been taking notes
Noooo... I need part 2 or the McLaren paint job reveal 😂
@@jondor3689 that's a dick move
Great show Comrade ( Tavarish). Yes, that tune up and diagnostic would have been extremely expensive at the dealership! Excellent work!!
So glad you and the family are feeling better and that you are back to creating videos for us again! You were missed, sir
Tavarish:- let's drain this oil pan
Car wizard:- I have got to taste that
Presentation style has really improved. Less stop starts makes the videos a lot more enjoyable.
Cool to see a project done, and Really well done. Thank you for this vid Tavarish.
This is the type of content I subscribed for!
Yup reliable for the warranty period
Man, I am so happy to see a new Tavaish video!
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
@18:55 need more of this music while working , don’t ever stop using this PLEASE!!! 🏁
Seconded, I only really come here for the music, the rest is just visual filler.....😌🙃
Great video as always, well detailed, great commentary, great information, thank you for always sharing, you are awesome
awsome! finally a old car fix! keep them coming :D SL 55 amg next? ;)
12:13 I hate when I’m buttoning up a job and have to do a 20 min tear down to put in that one bolt I forgot. Smh
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
Very smooth ad transition
Your a very skilled chap 👍. Highly interesting upload, thank you 🙏
One engine mount looks like a white castle burger the other Big Mac
Where's the mclaran?? Just finished the playlist!!
I want to see the paint
It's being painted and that takes time.
Thanks Mr T for another quality upload
Wow Tavarish, thanks for the stroll down memory lane. Reminds me of when I did coil packs, heat exchanger, and intercooler pump on my tuned CL600 10-15 years ago. Surprisingly easy cars to work on. I think coil packs took about an hour and that included taking pics to do a "how to" write up on the old MB forums.
When are you going to make Tyler fix one of his own vehicles? Teaching him to do some complex repairs might be hilarious 😂. Just an idea.
Next owner on CZcams: "Someone thought it was a good idea to make his own ground on my parking sensor wire"
beautiful work
Sweet video of just some nice wrenching! My fav type of Tavarish content, keep it coming :)
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
How much do you want for it? I'm looking for a nice car to keep in Florida at my winter house.
I wanna see a vr4 episode!
Same here!
Great video! Really dig the one and done videos.
Excellent episode!
Always remember, when working under the hood and having intakes and cylinders open to where you can drop stuff in the engine, NEVER vacuum all the old leaves and crap, always leave a completely messy engine compartment so you chance making a stupid mistake with every arm movement and gust of air.
I hate the way Mercedes and BMW oil life reset is. Sometimes it says it didn’t reset even though it did 😂 especially the Infiniti QX30. (QX30 is a Mercedes with an Infiniti badge)
Thanks for fixing it bro. I'm subscribing now
great vid! old school Tavarish, loved it.
We know what the cannabis system is Freddy.
Sincerely, Washington State
Those leafs on the window grind my gears
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
Man, your choice of montage music always hits me in the right spot!
Dear Sir !! Great JOB !! Bless !!
Great job. Beautiful car. Get rid of those damn leaves!
That coil pack costs more than any of my cars... 😱
Amazing work brother! Very impressive
Best of luck! I’d want one but best to hold off for new one and keep my 116, 126 and 140 ( amongst others) maintained right and keep going because they are special cars but nice to see you back and good luck selling it, always sad to see you guys sell my fav cars but you have a better one
So is some of this The Car Wizard’s fault? He fitted the engine!
Did he? i don't follow Wizard?
He probably over charged for it too lol
I’m pretty sure this car is from the pre-wizard days
@@jtuck6065 you are correct
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
Tavarish where's the S65? It's been a while now
He sold it
Tavarish doesn’t learn the CZcams game so many people paid attention to that amg s65 and he just didn’t care about uploading videos about that car. That’s why i get bored with this channel.
@@ikhoonyejelem2967 seriously?
@@DanielDiaz-te6dl mann, same here..I hardly watch his videos these days😂
@@carswith-k yes he said it in the vid
That is a beautiful gauge cluster. White and gray-so good.
Loving classic tavarish!
Has he mentioned That all the Parts are OEM?🤔
Yeah he did
Tavarish is a channel I had such high hopes for. He won't won't ever finish the builds I subscribed for :(
I love the time lapse music so much
Hey Freddy, greetings from Hungary, I've been missing your vids, glad to see a new one, especially since it features a benz, of which I have two, and love both of them, keep up the good work ;)
"It costed nothing to maintain"
Scotty Kilmer: *Laughs in Endless money pit*
As much as Id love a V12 I’m never buying one over 5 years old
Mines nearly 20 lol 133 k miles on it and still strong
spark plugs and coil packs... I wouldn't call this engine very broken. Compared to *cough* other German manufacturers, I'd say this one is bullet-proof.
@@vdochev it’s the $3500. of spark plugs and coil packs that hurt.
@@robertbeirne9813 Well, yes, it's a V12. And when it was new it wasn't exactly a bargain car. It was expensive and it will be, that's expected.
@@vdochev oh, I agree with both of your comments, but the type of person who bought this new, is not the type of person who’s going to be the 4th or 5th owner. That said, you could tell how incredibly smooth that V12 is, when Tavarish started it up.
Love the music! Thanks for the video
So long to send us a video,man.Luv it when we get a Tavarish video,it makes a bad day oh so much beta!Luvin it.💯💥🤛👊🤜
For heavens sake do a headlight lens restoration on that car lol.
If anyone can get a dime every time a Mercedes from the last 3/2 decades broke down or had a major setback of any type, They would be a multi millionaire on yacht chilling smoking a pipe.
They are probably the cars with the least break downs compared to any other car with same performance. But you need to service them correctly.. I think many people in the US have problems understanding that.
You have to add the mileage driven into your equation too.. Of course a car is more likely to break down, if you drive it a lot compared to a trailer queen. With that said Mercedes are built to last.
All the people in the replies mentioning maintenance. One thing is maintenance, but too much maintenance is another. That means cars are garbage and NOT built to last.
Source: BMW owner. Mine is a piece of shit, built to fail, but I like that POS.
@@MiGujack3 Or high performance. You wont get that by building by the tractor principle.
Glad to see ya back - been a while!

Another great video Tavarish!!! Always better with my fav track blaring out!!! (27:00 min) :D
Tavarish doesnt look enough Top gear/grand tour ("How Hard can it be")
I was gonna say. That JC's catch phrase "How hard can it be?" Until everything goes horribly wrong
And on that bombshell
Exactly
I find Tavarish to at least be somewhat competent with a wrench compared to Clarkson.
czcams.com/video/q_qJ1TqZPHk/video.html
Something tells me Tyler doesn't Wrench Everyday.
👍🏻 for bringing back the old time lapse music
Long time since the music in this type of videos was this good, well done!
You better sell that car on "CARS AND BIDS" !!
FINISH THE MCLAREN!. Please 🙏🥺😭😭😭😭
Check tavarish's insta he posted sneek peeks of it out of paint and that they are filming it. Its coming grass hopper
@@jameshoath83 I only use Facebook and I hate that. I'll wait then
Good one Freddy. Back to basics.
Cheers. 🇨🇦
I really enjoyed this video and I learned a lot!
Gorgeous car, too bad it’s a maintenance nightmare
For the past four videos, you uploaded the following:
1) sold a car
2) changed spark plugs
3) sold another car
4) changed spark plugs in another car
Your channel without Jared is completely out of content.
Love the background music 🎶
I've been dreading trying to fix the park assist/distronic system, I have the same errors you do but I suspect my problem runs deeper (shoddy repair after front collision). You've given me hope so fingers crossed.
You gotta polish those heights next!
Merry greetings Freddie! Great to see a video from you! Happy Tuesday dude! 🤘😎
I find every tavarish's timelpase video very satisftying
The music during the montages always spot on
The best track comes late in the video now, but I'm watching to the end anyway so....
Glad to see another Tavarish video. Can't wait to see the next Car Trek too.
very useful thank you
youre the man Tav
Little Vice Grip Garage at the start there bud. 👍🏻👍🏻
