Video descriptions:
0:00 Intro
0:04 The customer or another shop put the brake calipers on the wrong sides
0:32 That's got to be one unhappy ECM
0:44 Almost a final destination moment for this customer
1:05 That filters definitely seen a lot of miles
1:20 Wonder how long it's been like this if the customer didn't even notice it
1:39 Customer States "I've got a knocking noise"
1:46 Could be a pulley tick but either way it's a bad sign
1:56 A thousand more miles and they'd have a nice 2 piece wheel
2:04 Mechanic was doing a valve cover gasket on their parents car, somehow the sparkplugs were still working fine like this
2:22 Really lucky nothing major happened as this could've gone a lot worse
2:37 You VS the guy she tells you not to worry about
2:48 Customer States "After I replaced battery, now my car struggles to crank and start"
3:00 Customer somehow said nothing about their brakes having issues
3:06 Other mechanics said it's literally easier to just buy a new junkyard engine than to fix this
3:18 Basically will need a whole new front end
3:29 Most customers like this drive it till it fully overheats and destroys the engine lucky this one stopped
4:01 Well I think we found what was causing the sound...
4:10 Came in for an oil change but the mechanics found a built in water fountain
4:21 Outro

Changing your oil and not your filter is like taking a shower and not changing your underwear
Like taking a shower and not washing your hair
@@ryans413 More like taking showers and never washing your arse!
Like taxi fleet maintenance.
The one with the valve stems, "You vs. the guys she tells you not to worry about." had me rolling.
I'm definitely not the guy she tells you not to worry about.
That's not a swimming pool, that's obviously a car pool; he can now legally drive on the carpool lane.
You have won the Internet for the day with that brilliant comment!
A rust pool in 2 months
As long it's submerged, it's good. The problem starts when it dries up.
Man, those two piece floating rotors are getting more and more popular...
The scariest part of most of these is these POS vehicles are on the road beside you!
*laughs in European* (sorry, didn't want to be rude)
3:14
That timing chain is trying to tell us a story.
It's the story of how the engineers made sure to make it as hard to service as humanly possible and how it is about to destroy the whole motor with one rev xD
vw 2.0 TSI.....🤦♂
2:46 Front Wheel: Boy, am I glad to see you!!
Scary to think these wrecks waiting to happen, are out amongst us. 😳
LMAO, bleeders not being at the high point. "But it's easier to get to!"
Just came in for oil change 😅 while the rest of my car is falling apart.😮
When I see these videos, I go out to the garage and hug my car, so it knows I'll never be stupid to it, ever.
I guess some people just don’t believe in preventative maintenance
@@aaakkk112👍 Never were truer words spoken !!....
A customer once was bragging to me about how well he took care of his car. He had to drop 2 grand in repairs from a lack of maintenance. I told him if his car was a dog it'd have chewed off is leg to get away from him. He was a good sport about it. He thought I was joking. Good times. My pet peeve being a mechanic was customers would look me right in the face and lie. The truth is always best. We're trained forensic investigators. We're gonna know what you did, just admit it so we can get to the real issues.
Again, I feel much better about myself. I'm not the sharpest shovel in the shed, but I know which hole to dig.
😂 Wow, sounds like you are much smarter than any government politician then !!..
2:23 a similar thing actually happened to me too about 20 years ago. except it was some metal box shaped piece that fell off the bottom of a semi and right in front of me on the highway… where i was in the left lane and the were road construction walls up so there was no where for me to go to get out of the way, nor enough time to slow down without causing an accident with the person behind me, despite everyone being stuck going 45mph…
completely destroyed my driver’s side wheels. not the just the tires. the entire wheels. still have no idea what the hell that metal cube shaped piece even was 🤷♂️
2:04 Obviously it's the first one! All the other ones look the same! It's the odd one out, thus the one's that's wrong!
We need to start giving jailtime to truck drivers who let stuff fall off their vehicle
Customer brings in a vehicle that leaks everywhere, one front tire has no rubber left, and the engine is smoking.
Customer: I feel a slight rattle at highway speeds and Im getting bad gas mileage.
Can you check the fuel filter?
Tech: ( looks flabbergasted at how the vehicle is still running, sees the chassis rusting apart, being held together by duct tape and jb weld) sir, you have these problems that need to be addressed.
Customer: I just want the fuel filter replaced.
Tech: that vehicle is going to kill you and everyone else around it.
Customer, standing there with eyes crossed and drool coming out of his mouth, states" my parents were brother and sister and the vehicle looks good to me.
Tech: looks at camera"customer declined repairs, we called the cops".
Total Einstein’s …… like …My tire is only flat on the bottom
That nissan sentra at 2:55 hit way too close to home. All have them have that problem for no reason, you need shims for the battery posts and you have to change them every so often. All because they couldnt make the right size terminal on the cable. If its loose and you hit a bump the car shuts off
never been this early to one of these. hello all!
Is there links to individual videos? I want to send the one at 1:46 to a friend because he threw a rod in the exact same car 😂
The ones with the 2 piece rotors never seen them get that bad and it's kinda of scary to know that some drive their cars like that
I love self adjusting piston rods
Never seen a pornographic tire ever!
I always enjoy your videos. It's a special bonus when someone actually holds their phone the proper way when recording a video. C'mon people, cell phone videos aren't new technology any more.
1:49, cheap and easy fix if it's just an idler pulley going bad.
While true, they'd need to take it to a mechanic to find out if it is that cheap fix.
So...
It might be worth having it inspected. But I'd be ready to drop that sale _instantly_ if it turns out to be a knock.
Or if the seller puts up even the _slightest_ protest to the inspection.
@@benjaminfinlay829 I think if you are not experienced enough to figure out basic mechanical problems it would be a good idea to always get a potential purchase inspected by a pro.
@@tinknal6449 Agreed.
4:18 so? when you drive it works.... no idea why this clip is in there
No, its the anti weapon. You know when people spray to annoy the people behind them? This is to annoy the people infront of you instead!
Dear God...
Can someone explain what's wrong with the brakes in the first video?
Calipers are upside down. Can't bleed upside down calipers, even if that person knew how.
Calipers are made as left and right. So the bleeder screw is at the top. Above everything else. This guy swapped them when installing the new set.
Upside down callipers they won’t build pressure upside down resulting in a soft brake pedal.
Would love to see what the owners of these cars look like......
Tube seal ain't bad it's the crappy plastic valve cover that's bad I just did a gasket replacement and it still leak afterwards on the same ford 2.0l motor so I ordered a real valve cover for it it's called aluminum
OK... 90% of customers would not let their brakes go all to hell if the price to have them replace was not so much. We all know that a full set of pads and rotors for the average vehicle is around $300 and then the book gives you like 6hrs for a complete job. That is $1000 if you don't make a ton on parts. Most brake jobs are simple and take 2-3hrs. You can really help a customer out be charging actual labor time not book. I believe more people would not go some long if that was the norm.
This country gets dumber every year. I wonder why !!!!!
Just 20 hours? Cry’s in Audi 3.0 v6 timing chain
I win
There was one particularly hot summer when I was a teenager where I got Taco Bell and accidentally left it in my car because I was in such a rush. I ate all of it just left some trash and crumbs in the bag. I came back after being away for two days to find my sunroof vent drain got clogged and because it a vw that meant all the water from the rain went into my passenger floorboard. There was so much water it overfilled the front floor board and traveled under the passenger seat and into the back floor board. I used a shop vac to suck all the water out and treated my car multiple times for mold. Killed all mold that grew and stopped more from growing with no electrical damage at all. I got lucky but because the smell was Taco Bell infused with mold and maggots I didn’t eat Taco Bell for years after that point. I tried it out after three or four years for the first time after the maggots and almost threw up and have since just stayed away from it. I’m lucky that the only thing in my car at the time was the bag of Taco Bell and I like to keep my stuff clean or else the car might’ve been just dropped off at a junk yard and never used again.
Technicians are terrible narrators. Like nails on a chalk board.
