Everyone loves a V8, right?! All of you car fans know that one day you would love to get your hands on a car that has one of those glorious engines hidden under the bonnet.
However, just how glorious will these engines prove to be if they were left to run when totally drained of their oil? Well, we’re about to find out!
We’ve got our hands on two no longer road-worthy cars - a BMW 7 Series, and a Lexus LS, and we’re going to drain their delightful V8s to see which can run the longest when they’re completely empty of their oil!
Will they blow up instantly? Or will they power through? And more importantly, if it’s the latter, which will keep running for the longest?!
There’s only one way to find out - stick with Mat as we drive these cars to destruction!

Oh but you dont need that for a modern engine to fail, the emissions, efficiency hardware will do it just fine
As a BMW owner, I knew it would survive longer because BMW know their cars can never hold oil

I thought exactly the same, and Toyota or Lexuses can't run without oil, because they are simply built to never loose oil xD
@@Karl-me4mh not true only some engines alot of base engines toyota makes camry etc burn alot of oil vvti

Luckily, the engine in my Saab has a feature where it auto-drains the oil, so I don't ever have to worry about messing around with oil plugs and such. Very handy feature!
Ha Ha, I have an Alfa with the exact same feature.

Good for u is that 🤣🤣🤣 they are bankrupt , u lucky it kinda help do it on your own lol for service
Front crank seal?
Every car has an oil auto-drain feature, you just have wait it out and neglect it longer.
It is funny that the lexus is by far the most reliable v8 WITH oil, but is renowned for being absolutely intolerant of oil starvation which usually kills them incredibly quickly. It is interesting how different designs shine in different conditions
if bmw didn’t strap their engines to plastic bits that shouldn’t be plastic (ie water pump) and cram really new technology into every engine they have, they would be some of the most reliable engines in the world. but even with their issues, they run like dreams.
He's not just a talented mechanic, he's the man, the myth, the legend Taylor
These BMW engines are actually extremely strong. It's usually the things that are bolted to them that go wrong and cause the issues...the blocks themselves are nearly bulletproof. Also, draining the oil will not cause engines to seize up immediately because there's always a thin film of oil left on all of the components that will ensure some lubrication. It's only when you burn through this film that the engine will start to seize up.
💯%
Yup only when metal touches metal directly - then it's game over very quickly
yeah
Except they have rod bearing issues and timing chain stretches.
@@dogchainsaw3923 my diesel E91 BMW has over 300.000km and still original timing chain and rod bearing 🤔
Would be interesting to shove oil back in and see if will start back up
would have liked to have seen that
TRUE THO
It won't sadly, cause all the parts are already absolutely demolished and shoving the oil back in won't make any difference really
Nothing will happen I tried it with my grand Cherokee , it’s still sitting in my driveway .
Oil isnt magic juice, it's designed to lubricate the moving parts but once those moving parts have no lubrication it creates massive heat and friction which permanently damages the internal components. Once that's happened it's irreversible and the engine is totalled. No amount of oil would fix this.
I accidentally did this with a 96 jeep Cherokee xj. Bought it for $400 and drove to my house. The coolant temp got high and I checked the oil amongst other things. Discover no oil. That was years ago now and it still runs perfectly despite a good 15 minute drive across town.
That is a steal! Well done.
Man, that hurts so much seeing that bmw treated like that. I get the running the engine without oil test okay but throwing rocks at it really pains me to see😢 I really like that design.
Agree. Its not okay 😢
It's the ugliest generation of BMW of all time but I agree it's hard to see it. Mat is not a car person. He's an entertainer.
Absolutely! I skipped that part of the video, too hard to watch 😢
To be fair. That BMW has been well prepped for this. It’s spent most of its life short on oil. The Lexus IS new to this!
not on mine
Yeah, All BMWs are actually hybrids. They burn through gas and oil. and some burn through the rubber too.
😂
Of course it takes an Anglo to destroy something brilliant that Germany built, typical
Oh
I'd love to see what the engines look like once torn apart.

Strange how the ECU doesn’t block the engine from starting when the oil sensor sees there is no oil?
So you want to be stranded in the middle of nowhere if the sensor goes bad??
@@fi8er1 A pressure sensor is pretty bulletproof. I wouldn't go anywhere anyways if it says low oil pressure. It would just make it idiotproof to not junk the engine.
@@fi8er1 I prefer that to paying for a new engine
@@fi8er1 How would you know if it’s only the sensor though? Not worth the risk. Better to get it towed imo.
@@fi8er1 Yes. Because how would you know if it's the sensor's problem or the engine's problem? You don't, so better play it safe and don't drive any further.
That V8 in the BMW is actually one of the strongest engines ever developed
I do not like BMW's but credit's due when they actually build something good
My n62v8 which is what in the bmw but mine is the 4.4L it’s good engine but it’s likes to act sometimes but 99% of the time is perfect
Well I've heard they're good if you do the valve steam seals, transmission valve body's etc... Though I'd rather get a N/A 6 cylinder as they're BMW's more reliable...
if only the other compnents didnt die so quickly
@@Maximus20778 Well... That's the drawback
The lexus in this case would still be a better pick
The internals are actually weaker but it will still outlast the BMW by a long shot due to it's simplistic design
@@HyraxGames yeah the 3UZ is a bit weaker than the 1UZ
excellent experiment, you guys are doing a great job keep up i love this
BMW blocks - especially up to the early 2000s - were pretty tough nuts to crack. The problem is usually everything else around the engine 😅
And im saying this from experience btw. We have a used 2005 525i with 2.5L I6 bought in 2010. 290k km, already 70k km when we got it (Lord knows if the mileage was tampered). Everything around the car kept falling apart… except the engine.
And its interesting coz the car was a UK spec and im from malaysia. And people kept warning us how UK spec beemers might have trouble dealing with Malaysia’s year-round heat and humidity. Well, prove them wrong so far.
The S62 is pretty shit though. I think there are likely 2 issues here - 1 is the UZ is a much more precisely engineered unit than the S62 - fine engineering tolerances mean the bearings, starved of oil, would overheat more quickly than in an engine with lower tolerances - so the engine ceasing up first more likely shows it's better engineered than the BMW unit, not worse. Second, of course we don't know the history of either engine. Of course from real-world statistics, we know the S62 is a piece of shit with multiple fatal engineering faults, whereas the UZ is one of the most reliable V8's ever made - possibly the most reliable mass produced quad cam V8. Ultimately, running an engine well outside of its service specifications tells you nothing useful at all.
@@Beer_Dad1975 : Yup, agreed. Nobody will run an engine with all its oil drained out. Its not an accurate measurement of engine reliability on a long term ownership point of view. In fact, its better for the lexus engine to fail earlier to prevent catastrophic failure. This is just for entertainment only.
That's quite a jump from the small cars that competed in this very challenge!
Weird experiment, but still fun to watch XD
Yep. Imagine if Mat do this unique race between Peugeot 9X8 vs Golf IV GTi.
What's the mileage?
I owned one of those 7 series V8s and I never had an issue with the engine...just the transmission, the climate system, the suspension and brakes and the electrics.
@@simonmiller5118 basically everything else 😂
@@AGLIBABY All the tech died. It became a Lexus.

That older Honda-Peugeot-Ford video was absolutely crazy, especially when that Civic turns into zombie form after taking some coke and mentos, and still continues to run.
That Honda was an absolutely beast. That engine was as tough as can get. Honda reliability, am I right?

To be fair, the Lexus had a coolant failure before they even bought it. I reckon the engine was already warped long before this test started.
That’s what I thought too
That bmw lump has 2 sump plugs one up by the filter housing it holds about 1.7ltr as the cooler runs off it. They purposely picked this engine to do this test they're getting lambasted for it in comments and UK forums already. They need to stop trying to pull the wool as the Old Defender VS New Defender shill stunts were enough for anyone to be disgusted with this channel. They don't want to be pulling stunts like this now tbh as all the car review and drag time channels are currently under fire for "abnormalities" in their claims.

Take the BMW to a dealership and ask for an inspection and get a quote on how much it would make this thing run again. 🤣🤣
Definitely needs a new engine.
They would just try to sell you a new car at that point lmfao
let it cool down fill it with oil and there's a possibility it would start up again...
@@yamafanboy50/50 of it starting ☠️
Interestingly, that's the second UZ I've seen die a very rapid death without oil. The other one had an oil filter come loose while driving. Pressure light came on, it was immediately pulled over and parked, but was still cooked almost instantly. However, keep the oil in them and they're literally immortal.
It's not surprising at all - the finer the tolerances are, the quicker something will cease - therefore all this demonstrates is the UZ engine is probably engineered to higher precision than the N62.
@@Beer_Dad1975 exactly 👍

Drove my 79 Toyota Celica dry for about a whole year (it had a leak that I just didn’t fix). It finally went pop, but it drove like a champ.

I am in awe. I expected Lexus to cake walk it?
I am really surprised with this.
I would be surprised if BMW used weaker components that Lexus. Japan has always built cheaper cars. Reliable mostly because they are simple and tried. But I have never really seen them be more durable.
I share the same sentiment. At the beginning I was like "The Lexus will run around that BMW. Why even try". Imagine my surprise when BMW actually won
Toyota is a car company with average cars. They used to make long lasting reliable vehicles but not over the past 10 to 15 years.
@@martinsvensson6884 original lexus LS wasnt cheap or simple by any means but still it was way reliable than its competitors your point makes no sense
@@davitavazneli3506 No it was not more reliable than the MB w140. And certainly not as durable. Despite being a much simpler car.
Missing histories of both engines, this test means nothing. Also, like I mention in one other comment in made in this video, maybe the Lexus Engine shut itself down once the oil pressure sensor detected that the oil pressure was too low. For a test, add Engine oil again in both car and let's see which one will start, just curious. Cheers!

Seeing how BMWs are notorious for losing oil, I guess it makes sense that it worked for such a long time
Imagine how heartbroken the original owners would be when they see this video. The joy of collecting your brand new car, and then seeing it being destroyed 😱😭

No number plate so it's totaly Impossible to tell
These cars seem to be terribly maintained. Most likely by people who only got them to look above their means. I doubt they’re very concerned about what happened to them after their ownership.
what? these had many owners, and are not unique to be recognized by their first owner
@@MatthewThePrincess yeah even from the first video where this car shown the lexus already have leaking radiator
BMW know their engines would leak oil so they built one that ran without it anyway

Do more of these
Some engines retain more oil when ‘empty’ than others.
I would bet that Lexus does a better job of fully letting the old oil out.
I was thinking that, oil cooler possibly held loads back also(?)
Yeah, case in point, BMW had to add a second drain plug to the E60/61 M5 (MY2008 and later) because it was impossible to do a full oil change, a litre or more of old oil would remain trapped in the shallower part of the sump, near the pump.
@@nfmonteiro
Exactly.
I doubt BMW use metals /!gaskets that are that much more tolerant than Lexus to overheating.
Experience tells us the opposite is probably true.
Or perhaps the LS had already been abused more and run hot.
Not fun to watch the deaths, but also not scientific enough either.
Never mind 🤓
@@nfmonteiro Which makes this BMW vs Lexus test biased.
@@5-40_ oil coolers sometimes are crushed.
The BMW must have some oil left in the engine. Its impossible for the engine to run 5x longer. It have nothing to do with engineering but simple physics. What can also play huge part is in what shape the engines were before this test. Anyway it was fun to watch.
You hit the nail on the head the BMW had about one and a half liters of oil left while the Lexus had 0.2 that's why it died so quick and the BMW lasted that long
@@bigguyjosh6420 too bad most fanboys don't believe that... I don't hate bmw but there's no way the engine is more reliable than the Lexus... Even the way they rev'd it wasn't the same...
I knew Matt is a BMW fanboy but this video doesn't prove anything... It might even do worse since fellow bemers will abuse them even harder than before...
So many Lexus fanboys, face it bmw engine is more durable while Lexus is more reliable. Most bmw engines can 2-3x power on stock internals.
@@Areku06 Thats correct, Lexus and Toyota fanboys are something else🤦
@@Areku06 only kids are fanboys. This is about logic. You can have overengineered engine but without oil it should break the same way as average engine. It might last longer but not 5 times longer.

Love my E39 520i Touring. Purring like a cat. Like a huge massive black Predator Cat that is. 😊
I know people in this comment section would be surprised by the BMW winning but I’m not. My previous car was a 2011 BMW 323i which I had until the beginning of this year and it was easily the most reliable car I’ve owned. 9 years and 0 issues. Only at the end did it start to develop an oil leak which was an easy fix, however, I decided it was finally time to sell it and I bought a 2016 BMW 420d. So far I’ve had 0 issues and it would have to be one of the most efficient motors in a car today. BMW’s are reliable if you treat them with care.
My more modern 435i was my most unreliable car. Was still a great car
Sure, but Lexus in general is more reliable / dependable than BMW.
Yeah. I don't get where German cars got that bad reputation for being unreliable from.
I'm ethnically not German, but I live in Germany and you never hear of people having trouble with their German brand cars here. Same in eastern Europe, where I have relatives. People there are driving tons of used German cars and also have no trouble with them.
Only in the USA it seems that German cars suddenly become unreliable and it makes no sense to me.
I once had a conversation with a friend who is a car mechanic about that and he said Americans just don't know how to maintain and repair cars properly, which of course is a dubious hypothesis at best, but I have to admit, I have no better explanation for the phenomenon that German cars only seem to be unreliable in the USA.
@@WimTheInstigator That would make some sense though as that was basically the first generation of the turbocharged motors and they are known for not being very reliable. Mine is a 2016 that is pre-facelift but comes with the safety features and updated motors that the F30 LCI came out with in 2015. The later 340i and 440i are known to be two of the most reliable luxury cars out there.

I knew a woman when I was stationed at Ft. Bliss that asked me to look at her BMW because her check engine light was on! So the first thing I did was to check the oil in case there was a head gasket and saw that the engine was completely dry and she had been driving it like that for 3 months!

Back when I was a wee little hick I had a third gen ram with a 5.7 hemi and one day it ran out of oil at the top of a mountain I then hot rodded it down the mountain drove 7 more miles before I stopped and had someone pick me up off the side of the road due to it knocking really bad, not only that but the next day I drove it another 4 miles back home onto a trailer and out into a field at my grandmas, and to this day I can start it up just fine and crawl in limp mode while hearing a constant thud. Probably one of the strangest and most reliable engines I’ve used.
I was doing a 60 mile trip in my suzuki liana estate 1.6 2004, around 45 miles into it my top hose got a small split on it and all coolant was gone. I continued at 60 mph to find a fuel station with the mil light on. The car had smoke pluming from the bonnet. I filled it up with water and cut effected part of the hose and re joined it. Ran fine ever since. It had 170k miles on it then it now as 184k miles. I think the last time changed the oil in it was about 3 years ago.
I haven't seen it yet but I think japan makes tougher engines
You can tell that mat love bmw with all his heart, I have noticed in many drag races 🏁
Yes, he love BMW... And it´s completely normal.
He loves to hate BMW's, because Mercedes costs more, has bigger engines, etc...
But he loves the fact that many test BMW's outperform higher spec Mercedes cars, and when similar for HP:Weight it's a complete slaughter.
my heart cries every time i see a video like this
There´s one thing, Mat. The LS has a system which shuts down the engine when it detects there´s no oil in order to protect the engine. The 7-Series, though just went on and on until the whole engine got destroyed.
The engine in 7-Series goes to scrapyard
The engine in LS suffered minor damage and can be repaired
Doesn't really explain why it ran for a while with no oil
It would be nice to watch such test once again with more German cars, like old A6 vs E vs 5, or Golf vs A3.

So the trick to keep a BMW's engine running forever is to drive it without engine oil. Thanks Carwow!
Ahh gutted too see that 4.2 get damaged! I had 1 of these for ages and I kid you not what a great car that lexus is!
Once rode in a Honda Civic from one city and back w no oil and it took another week to finally give out
Do a test by removing the coolant BUT keeping the engine oil. It's going to be very cool!
Yes indeed, the old LS400 1uz motors are extremely reliable with high heat aswell
The oil was drained while the front end of each car's front end was on a ramp. Due to this angle, the oil won't drain evenly, those it's possible one or both cars had oil remaining in different quantities. Not scientific but entertaining regardless.
Would it be almost seven times more oil in the bmw, since it performed almost seven times better lol
Plus we don't even know how these cars were treated between the hands of their respective owners.

Lexus was all the way out of oil due to the shape of sump, BMW had at least a litre of oil in sump.
Finally I have found something CZcams doesn´t have as interesting experiment video - how it sounds and looks like to run a jet engine without oil. But the car videos I found instead are awesome too! Have you ever tried this experiment on a Diesel engine? It will maybe last longer because of the thick viscosity of Diesel.
This is not an experiment in any way, shape or form - no controls, no measurements etc - and in fact I'd say the "result" favors the Toyota engine, since an engine with finer tolerances will overheat and bind up more quickly than an engine with lower tolerances, when starved of lubricant - so perhaps shows the BMW's tolerances are poor - which, well everyone knows the S62 consumes oil like a motherfucker, whereas the UZ does not...
This looks correct Mr.Watson. My oil pressure signal came on and it ran on the freeway (Phx/101) for like 15mn…bmw’s are extremely overbuilt to handle malfunction/breakdown

but i'm not sure about the bmw
that bang at the end didn't sound good
The BMW ain't dead! That intake just popped off!
Now i know why common BMWs got oil leak, because their car didn't need oil. so the engine automaticaly vomiting the oil and it called "oil leak"
Those 2 V8s were suffering from over heating! It's so heartbreaking to me!
As a car guy I can say I'm happy those horrible wastes of imagination and metal were thrashed to death those BMWs are the ugliest cars ever made with the least reliable V8s ever made the Lexus is okay it's just it's so boring if you want a boring man's luxury car get the Lexus
@@bigguyjosh6420 the LS430 is not boring at all, have you even driven one? I slide mine around all the time, endless fun.

Do a test by removing the coolant BUT keeping the engine oil. It's going to be very cool!!
That test would definitely be fire 🔥
