It's incredible for me to discover how many people don't have the slightest idea of how a combustion engine works.
Even the self claimed expert taking apart their air intake and telling them to try and start an engine with water in it.
Yup. Each car/van completely fucked
Probably 75% of the population haven't a clue.
I know right.
Add fuel, turn key and then magic happens, right?
At 5:26 you see the soul of that BMW engine leave!
What's the insurance excess🤣🤣🤣 that van ain't got insurance!
It currently shows as insured, if the plates haven't been cloned.
Insured or not, I would be amazed if their insurance paid out for this. Insurance covers a lot but not stupidity.
@The_Orgazoid
Insurance should pay, I've known people to deliberately pour water into the Intake to write there car off.
@@JohnSmith-ef8nr To be fair, that is fraud and slightly different. If an insurance company were to determine that a car drove into flooded water on purpose, they would not pay out. If they thought, as likely in your friends’ cases, that they thought that water happened to make its way into the engine in a natural, innocent way, then I can imagine them paying out.
@@JohnSmith-ef8nrWatching these videos are full of people deliberately pouring copious amounts of water into their air intake
It’s almost like that van driver didn’t understand you, let alone how a vehicle works and water doesn’t mix well 😂😂
Insurance? Hmmm 🤔
Brilliant catches Ben, sprinters for the win 💪🏼😂
It's taxed, MOT'd and insured. I was just as surprised 😂
@@sbomorsethat’s unusual…. 😉
@@sbomorsewhats that supposed to mean?
@@sbomorsewhy does that surprise you?
@@JBroMCMXCI look at the state of it.
6:06 the little Nissan Note gets the job done without any fuss and almost unnoticed. Underrated vehicle IMO.
I’d still rather have the hydrolocked sprinter 😂
My brother in Australia would think twice about crossing this flooded road in his adapted Landcruiser and he goes off road camping trips often, you need to prep your vehicle and water proof it before going anything more than a few feet of water you spray the electrics with Inox and seal up around the airbox with waterproof sealant , it deep water they put a tarp over the front end to divert the water from going through the grill to around the sides of the car, people forget too that drive shaft and differentials allow water to leak in so if you don't destroy your engine you are destroying you Gearbox and differentials as the seals allow water to get sucked in same with brake callipers water gets past the calliper seals and mixes with the brake fluid which will make stopping difficult along with the slow and definite destruction of your brake callipers which will rust and seize over time internally, people act fast and loose with their cars here in the UK. pretty amazing given the cost of the average car these days some cost more than many earn in two years, people on Lease agreements just don't care because they don't own the cars and treat them like garbage. Common sense these day is non existent.
In Australia from 2027 on all gas cars will be forbidden like in China and USA!
You mean _common sense is uncommon_
🤔
After a long time seeing people driving the Ring side of the road in UK, and trying to boating in cars, I've statistics
-1000% optimist
- 99% ignorant
- 70% misdesigned intake
- 95% driving skills too low
- 100% funny to see again and again
- 90% stupid trying restart immediately
Etc...
Cheers from France 🇨🇵
Have fun
Stay aboard 😁
Remember to check for water damage when buying a Sprinter van folks!🤣
Why does the waders guy always encourage people to start their engines while they're full of water? The only chance they have in starting the engine without doing damage (if it's not already damaged) by is removing the glow plugs or injectors and turning it over to clear the cylinders.
Exactly right. Just proves even a lot of those that think they know, don’t.
Hi wader guy here 😂. It wasn’t my choice to “start the engine” just the way the video is edited. We actually encourage not to start and wait for breakdown. But just like the people you say they can’t make it…they try anyway. In this clip after he had drained his battery trying to start it I looked at his airbox. Soaked filter. Removed and started looking further down the pipes work. Intake maf pipe was fairly dry… starts cranking I can hear it drawing water further in the system. I tell him no more we can’t try no more. It not hydrolocked but every chance there will be if we carry on. What do you think happens when I leave it at that…. 30 metres away keeps trying until the battery dies again. What’s not obvious in the video is the guy stopping every car asking for jump leads. Tools. Help. Anything. Desperation. And the other van of people that turnt up to help. (All delivery warehouse staff) the videos are edited down to make them watchable for you. There is so much that happens off camera honestly 🤝
Don’t forget to drain the intercooler, turbo piping, and airbox
@@trainman665
Just proves that those who comment on videos because they think they know better, don't. I bet you didn't expect the person to reply! xD
@@greensteve9307 They’ve come up with excuses. In the video you can hear them telling the driver to try and start it.
As I carefully walked around and gazed into the engine there behold was a Carp, I realised at that moment that all my fishing gear was obsolete.
😂😂😂
The mechanic said the engine was kippered.
That Merc Sprinter is a typical white van. It’s never had an MOT, where it passed first time. All have had serious and advisories. So not surprised they’re willing to trash the van. It’s probably worth more as a write-off.
And the Primastar - “dear Customer, We’re contacting you to say, your delivery will be delayed. Owning to the fact that the courier is a numpty.”
For anybody who wanted to know the as quote was £860 😂
I wonder if it depends on your AA cover. I’ve got the full Monty with RAC. It’s like £29 a month. It’s even more than what my car insurance is! But it covers me breakdown in any car no matter whose it is plus lots of other stuff
@@Redchannelconditions not covered for accident damage tho separate mate it’s how they get out of it 90% of the time
The amazon driver is going to have to make an embarrassing call to his customers that all the parcels are now water damaged and rendered useless...
Honestly another van pulled up 20 mins later. Swapped the parcels and away he was in a new van 😅 left the other driver there until 10pm 😅
Unless the vehicle is amphibious and engine waterproof do not drive through the water or hello hydrolock!
I saw one of your videos where someone drove through the water in reverse, worked out perfectly!!!!! And as long as people are unwilling to know how to work the flood roads, your videos will go on till you quit making them👍🤠👍
Going through in reverse is one of the worst things you can do.
@@trainman665 going through that at all is bad, i agree, it was in reference to the air intake, low and up front.
Going through in reverse is not worse.
@@trainman665 All the manuals I have read specifically say not to go through in reverse. Even the Electric Polestar!
@@persevere777 And going through in reverse will force more water into the air intake than going forwards.
Don't advise starting the car. If you watch them stupidly flood their own vehicle that's their fault. But then telling them to attempt to start it again is just daft. Specially as a lot of you don't actually know much about engines judging by this video. Just taking the pipe off the air filter does nothing. The intercooler, intake pipework, turbo housing, and intake manifold are all full of water just waiting to be sucked straight in as soon as they get it going again! The AA man knows what he's on about.
It’s the way it’s edited 😂 nobody ever tells them to start the car rod the opposite. It’s them that try 😂 or they flat tow it until a rod jumps out😂 the video shows a small portion buddy trust me. Although it defo does look that way this time I agree. But I assure you we’ve saved many people who decide to listen 😅
@@DiscoveryDanielle The video shows them being told to try starting it.
Butt butt ding ding vot is insurance (wobble head accordingly)
😂😂😂😂
This comment is highly accurate 🤣
🤣😂👏
When the van fills up with water why do folk think it will start.
AA man giving duff information out, insurance will not cover the cost for drowning a vehicle and that is no puddle they went through!
They do recover the vehicle regardless via insurance mate
He doesn't own the van its from company so he gives a zero fck
Ganz genau bei unseren good old Germany wird das grob fahrlässig genannt😂😂😂😂 Dummheit muss bestraft werden keine Zahlung
Fully comp insurance may well cover 'driver stupidity'. After all if the driver drove like an idiot and cashed into a tree and wrote the van off, is it really any different?
@@a.r1941I need to move to Germany 😂
Just to be clear. We had advised multiple times to not start it. After he drained the battery he begged us. Literally.. to try. We did the best given limited tools. And even it got to a point I said no more because it will hydrolock and his been lucky it’s not hydrolocked so far. Hence me explaining to somebody who doesn’t speak clear English that he has a percentage that it might be ok but I cannot say for 100% we never ever offer to repair or fix the cars. Only to remove from the water. For free. In exceptional circumstances or pressures we help. Where we can and as far as we can. Which is limited….
Wouldn’t bother. Can’t speak the language next thing he will be suing you
@@twiz1084 wouldn’t get much from me mate 😂🙈🙈 if he wants an abused landrover and some tow ropes 👀
The video shows him being told to start it. You shouldn’t advise people to try starting a hydrolocked engine.
@@trainman665 it wasn’t hydro locked. Hence it turning over.
@@trainman665 just for context. We were waiting for the battery to get charge after he had drained it at his request. Obviously waiting a few minutes to get charge. That’s why I say to try start it. Because it has hopefully gotten some charge. Obviously not clear in the video but that’s what happened.
They walk among us......or drive in this case 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
And all that nice water entering the diff and transmission through the vents. An added bonus is if the axle seals are bad. At least mold will make it better.
Rule 1 If the depth is more the 1ft / 300mm think twice.
Rule 2 If there is someone stood there filming, stop and go back, unless you want to be a youtube star that people laugh at for being an idiot.
Can’t dispute that advice 👌
The Mercedes sprinter is back 😂 another great video Ben 👏
Good news! You now have a boat. Bad news:
To be fair, Essex isn't a county renowned for its courage or intellect.
Suppose your from Brainbox County 🤯
Cool! I learnt something new today. Last week a friend bought a used Kia Rio, and we couldn't figure out what the large eye-bolt in the boot was for. @1:13 I see that it will screw into the frame somewhere for recovery towing. :)
The water didn’t seem to go over the air intakes of that first van obviously there’s a risk of hydrolock even if you’re in quite a big vehicle
That Mercedes at 4:02 and the Nissan at 5:51 look the same. I didn’t know Merc made pickups. Is it just a rebadged Nissan?
Yeah Renault engines 😅
Only made the X Class for a short time as nobody wanted to pay 50k+ for a rebadged Nissan !
@@AJ-qn6gd yeah, that’s crazy. Don’t forget Merc repair bills and rates vs Nissan. 🤦♂️
OMG !! . . .getting recovered to Croydon 😨 . . .how bad can it get . . . . ..🤣
Ha ha
I thought dumbos were just elephants this proves me wrong, somebody tell them it's air with fuel not water, 😂🤣
I hope they sue the council for damages. There's no depth markers.
02:06 sounds like he knows what he is talking about 😅
👀it’s very difficult when they don’t understand English very well mate 😅 and I’m not really wanted to start it. It the guy is begging me and everyone else around him. Even after we’ve told him don’t start. It, aa also say don’t start it. And then when they leave. They carry on starting it jump starting it flat towing it all sorts 😅of
Must have been pension day because that old dude in the Hyundai was stopping for NOTHING! Water, stop signs, pedestrians.... 😂
Wave road ... try to surf with stand up padle )))
Love people thinking that taking the air filter out will solve it, the intercooler and all the inlet pipework will all be brimmed with water.
Not in all cases. Just most😅
@@Discoveryjamie aye should have said most.
@@Ollie930I think 2 this year have been saved rest all hydro locked. One been the van in the video. Which I see running today. Surprisingly. And there was a bmw in a previous video petrol straight 6 one. 99% try to restart the car in the water
Clueless......just clueless. Driving without due care is an offence.....
i feel sorry for all the peoples parcels getting wet. Carnt fix stupid
Is this Brentwood area off a12?
Hydrolocked I’m afraid innit
woow
Зверьки в мерседесе прикольные
👍😎
Oh thats why I didnt get my amazon delivery today
SLOW DOWN WHEN YOU GO INTO WATER! IF YOU GO FAST THE WATER CAME IN THE INTAKE SYSTEM AND THE WATER GOES INTO PISTONS
Lads sitting in the car waiting for other to tow them out lol wouldn't even get out to put the towing eye in in case they got wet jokers!! lol
The clue is in the name. Mercedes called it the Sprinter, not the Swimmer.
Иностранцы понаприехавшим заясняют, что такое гидроудар и зачем его придумали, но мне иногда кажется, что на той части планеты, где все это происходит, гидроудар изучен ещё не полностью, и они успешно продолжают его изучение, сталкиваясь с ним изо дня в день по несколько раз!
Индусы понаприехали в Англию очень давно, со времен колонизации.
@@user-dg3zl3id4m Это то да, но гидроудар они усердно продолжают всесторонне изучать, как чукча из анекдота - «кирпич прямоугольный, в воду кидаешь, а следы от кирпича круглые»…
Is this why everybody's insurance premiums are increasing? ;)
😂😂😂😂
WHat I've learned from all of your videos is that Range Rover and Land Rover drivers don't bother with seatbelts.
What I don't get, even if you make it through, anything above sill height is flooded, an internal paddling pool !
what was that Mercedes at arond 3:55 ? Never seen that one irl...
It's an X-class. Basically a Nissan Navara underneath the Mercedes branding.
Pajeet made oopsy woopsy with tuktuktuk
They never learn because you never tell them, you could go and warn them
I think the lesson to learn is if there's a smashing great puddle surrounded by jolly boys with their cameras trained on you then it might be time to turn around & seek an alternative route
Arrogance is bringing instant karma...
Do insurance companies pay any of these claims? I bloody hope not.
Perhaps Flood notices should say also ‘Insurance companies will not cover driving therein’. This would save other insurers increased premiums mending broken and damaged vehicles that need not have entered the flood. If you want to be stupid you should pay.
A lot would of made it had they kept the wave ahead instead of trying to force it
alot of insurance companies don't cover if you driven your car into flooded road so hopefully van insurance doesn't pay out
How far out of the way do they have to go for a road that isn't flooded out?
10 mins 😅 either direction
Good to know that Amazon delivery hires the same sort over there.
AA dont cover breakdown what a scam company.
is it petrol or diesel 😂🤣whats it matter its got water sucked into the intake
Some people shouldn’t be aloud a driving license
Yup true
It’s ‘Allowed’ though 😄
You’re welcome.
7:35 cleaning it ?
Why are people so tick
Yea thats the funny thing about water its not compressible....hydro locking is a cylinder sucked full of water an then some ass hole tryes to start it an that normally leads to bent con rods..
I just don't understand, car, boat same thing surely?!!!
This is a sad day for the owners
2:40... thats.. broken. They should have undid the spark plugs from the block and turned it over as is AND NOT STARTED IT IN THE WATER 5 TIMES. WATER ISNT AIR. IT DOES NOT COMPRESS AND ENGINES RELY ON COMPRESSION. WHEN WATER ENTERS IT IT BECOMES A HAMMER THAT SLAMS THE HEAD AND CAN SNAP PISTON RODS OR SHATTER THE BLOCK ENTIRELY INTO PIECES. that engine is toast.... 😢
At least it's a day when they learn how a combustion engine works, or rather, how it doesn't work! It would have been good to familiarize yourself with how a car works earlier. in that respect, it's a good day. Because the drivers have learned some new skills. Some just learn the hard way.
I even had lessons about it at driving school. And I didn't skip it.
@@hybrid.roodragon1226that's right... Removing the spark plugs on a diesel engine would have fixed it 😂
@@SabretoothBarnaclenot just removing the spark plugs on a diesel, but removing them from the block 😂
@@hybrid.roodragon1226I’m not removing injectors at the roadside…I told him many times I would rather not he started begging…not apparent on camera 😅
Сколько в этой луже, погубили матросов? 🤔
All aa mechanics are different. This one is a 2 out of ten
Welcome to the zombie apocalypse
Do these daft drivers pay you to recover them?
x to the D
When you observe nature, they say when you put a camera there the behaviour of the subject will change. This is called the "observer effect". It will occur in with animals, but more so with humans probably, because they suddenly become the "main character" and must complete the challenge set before them. They don't want to lose face if they turn around - too much ego to lose. If you weren't there filming, I'm sure most of these people would back up! 😜
It’s the opposite trust me 😂
I suspect most of these people didn’t even see the camera before entering the water.
@@trainman665 or the 3 road signs warning before approach. The depth gauges.
@@Discoveryjamie Haha. It’s amazing how some people are completely unaware of their surroundings while driving.
That fake nissan truck kinda bossed it.
Not a fake Nissan but a rebadged Renault traffic. Know as Nissan primastar. Also was sold as a Vauxhall/ Opel Vivaro
@@AK.2425And a Fiat Talento. Such blatant cost cutting fakery 😂
@@nothingmuch.3014 I believe they were also sold as Mitsubishis in Australia.
@@AK.2425 Would make sense with the Renault - Nissan - Mitsubishi alliance.
The current Renault clio & captur are re badged in some markets as Mitsubishi Colt & Asx
Any idiot with a calculator could work out how much air a 2litre motor takes in per second running at 2000rpm. Now look at where the air intake is. 🤪🤪🤪
insurance will not cover ! silly clowns
Die Sprinter, die!
The BIG QUESTION IS......WHY ARE THESE ROADS NOT CLOSED, DUE TO FLOODING....SIMPLE !!!
No, the question is: What makes you believe white vans and BMWs are going to heed a "road closed" sign?
many roads in low-lying areas like Lincolnshire the broads , Essex in the UK have fords and flooded roads it common even in summer its a hazard that many drivers should take seriously but don't you cannot close these road as many are rural routes, closing them will close down the countryside, it does not help though that local councils cheap out and fail to dredge rivers and keep drainage systems in good order so when it really rains the place floods.
@@Welgeldiguniekalias but it is Not just BMW's and white vans,is it ???
@@Azureecosse right I see your point and yes the councils are a waste of time!
@@Welgeldiguniekalias czcams.com/users/shortsbWTZAkZLSWM?si=ZouDtxB4AiVX3H2J
The dude trying to fix the van fucked up the engine even more. If a litle bit of water enters in the engine... just go to the mechanic!
I didn’t 😂 no hydro lock. But I also wasn’t prepared to delve any deeper than the airbox… advised him still best to not touch it. He starts begging me…and others. So we do the best with limited tools and time available. It’s just not apparent on the video 👌🏻
Is this water located in a part of the world where there is a nearby village of idiots?
You cannot waterproof engines nowadays easily, the old engines were best.
You can very easily. Just most cars aren’t designed for it.
