Copemaster 1 vs 2 comparison

I have both versions of this tool and in this video I show the differences. Both tools do the same thing and are virtually the same with the main difference being the capacity. The newer version is 5” narrower and has significantly more capacity in terms of the size of moulding that can be milled, but for most people you can’t go wrong with either unit if you get it for the right price. The 1st...

After a year without hands free phone calling I got it to work again today. Here are a few things to check if you have the same car. Note: the 2010 L322 full size Range Rover has a different Bluetooth module than the Nokia module used in the earlier year L322 vehicles.
Great coffee anywhere

I love my French roast coffee.  But sometimes it’s tough to make a decent cup when I’m camping or away from home.  Here I show a simple and efficient method I use. I have a single cup electric for keurig pods which is a good alternative but this coffee is fresher and stronger tasting.
2009 Range Rover L322 radio no sound fix
มุมมอง 13Kปีที่แล้ว
My radio suddenly stopped playing and it turned out to be a failure of both the Harmon Karden Logic 7 amp as well as the Bluetooth module. Initially I tested the Bluetooth module because that’s a common failure but the radio still didn’t play. I took the vehicle to a car audio shop and they confirmed the amp was bad. I found an identical unit on EBay for $200 and after replacing it I still had ...

Thanks alot man, been struggling with this problem for a while. Tried locking and unlocking a few times, but your method worked first try

You got to sow me how to remove the coil plugs
hey in freelander 2 we have display heaad unit bluetooth cd player in built and amplifier signal goes from stereo to cd and amplifier but when coming back it comes to bluetooth but dont go past it what could be done now if we bypass form bluetooth the bluetooth wont work what cld be done now
Nice car !! I had two- a '62 and a '63. If you can get up in the shift linkage tunnel- clean and re-lube all of the moving parts, and make sure the shift forks aren't binding - it should make a world of difference !!

One person rooftop tent removal, storage and installation device. m.th-cam.com/video/EJZ7gZZmD9g/w-d-xo.html
The limitation to this idea of yours is that you’re missing the part about getting a roof top tent from the ground up to your lift. If a tent were light enough that I could lift to put on top of the lift I could lift it and put it on my car. My solution is a tent rolling dolly to store the tent and it takes the dolly from the ground up and onto the roof with one person.
@@tipsnadvice7284 We tell our customers that the first time they put a RTT on their vehicle, they will need help getting it on. Once RTT is on or may have already been on prior to purchasing the BAD BOY RTT lift, then the tent never touches the ground again. The video states this and shows it. Once the tent is removed, one can park their car under the lifted tent with easy and almost no strength required. Then one can put their tent back on the roof with the stored and lifted rooftop tent on the Bad Boy by Rollnjack.

Holy shit it actually worked!!! Thank you so much
Did the issue come back? Im trying it now but curious if its a permanent fix or not
Thank You for this .I have a Radmini 4 and been thinking on doing this and mt first thought was a second battery that at this time don't have one. Do you know if you can rent a spare from the bike shop there. Thank You Great video.
Super job i would like to have something like that. But here in Switzerland a lift like that cost $2500
Underrated video, I think this is a great long term fix for the air intake tubes. Change the name of the video from E355 Mercedes to E350, that will help with views.
Nice job; Nothing wrong with doing it right the 1st time, & I'm glad you are getting to enjoy the fruits of your labor of luv. She looks really great, & I'm glad your enjoying your ride; Along with your best friend in the back seat👍.
@@ACF6180T it wasn’t the first time :-) that’s just it. I spent years doing work on it piecemeal and finally accepted that it would be a car we would hold onto. It changed from being resale focused to enjoyment focused. Thanks
@@tipsnadvice7284 I kind have the same; Don't know what to call it, But have 3 Corvair's the 1st one I bought needed a complete restoration which I did; In the process I bought a 60 model 700 4 door that needed some engine work which I did, & was original 35,000 car that sat around from 2 previous owners who did not know how to work on the engine. I did get it running, & enjoyed her for about 4 years, & I was the 4th owner I also bought a 64 Greenbrier Deluxe before I sold the 60. The Greenbrier needed some body work to finish it, & a repaint, But I did get to enjoy for a few years the way it was. I sold the 60 because I purchased a 67 Monza convertible that needed the front end suspension completely redone, new fuel tank, new interior, floor pans, & rocker panels. I shopped it out as far as the body work that was a mistake that I wont get into, But this clown had to redo the rear floor pans which were put in backwards, & he had to repaint it a 2nd time. The 1st Corvair I bought is a 65 Corsa Coupe 180 Turbo. I need to redo some items on this, & the Greenbrier from them sitting & not exercising them, But I've got to get the 67 finished 1st which I hope will be next year. I hope to be were your at with all 3 of them next year. Thanks for the video, & I'm glad your enjoying your sweet ride 🙂.
@@ACF6180T wow. You’re dedicated
@@tipsnadvice7284 Thanks I just want to keep the marque on the road.
Let me know if you have any questions
Thanks for the video! I’m going there with my wife and kids bike packing next year, did you have to remove the battery off your bike?
@@djwanye83 yes. The bike is rolled to the back deck area and the battery stays with you. I carried it in a backpack. The ride is a rough gravel so bring a bike with wide tires and ideally bring a second battery
@@tipsnadvice7284 thank you.
Good stuff, keep it up
FIX 100% working -Insert key -Turn the ignition on (leave it 12 minutes) -run the engine
That my friend is an awsome invention you should patent it
Brilliantly engineered dude! I've been researching on roof top tent removal methods and yours seems darn effective! 👏👏
I wish you have a video how you make that. I wanna make same like that you're genius!
i tried programming a new key by using a method from youtube. it didnt work. the next day my original key started the car but it kept switching off. my heart sunk. i remembered watching your video and left the key in position two without trying to start it. i left it for ten minutes and came back to see the car immobiliser signal still on. i removed the key and put it back in and it fired up first time. the immobiliser signal is also not staying on. thanks so much. God knows how much i would have had to pay to rectify the problem
Where you get the bypass orange cable?
Amazon I think. Look for MOST bypass loop
Great idea!
Thank you good information
WHAT'S YOUR LOAD LIMIT FOR THIS ROOF ????😮
Been doing this for over a year with no problems. The weight is on the corners of the roof not the center.
Thank you I like your setup...😊
You are a lifesaver! Ignition on for 10 min. Light goes out. Remove key, insert key and start! Problem solved!👍
Fantastic. Thanks
Thanks for this, knowing to drill a hole made my day. I didn't have a hand Jack to push the lower arm down so I just removed it on side that mounts to the body, making sure to loosen the other end, way less fiddly to do and quick to remove and replace
Life saver!!
Dude! This is badass! I actually have long stainless conveyor rollers that would work well in the center of the ramp frame, and at the very top to where it slopes over smoothly. This is an awesome plan. Do you have the measurements for the ramp frame and the cart? Also instead of the wood ledge at the top, I have heavy duty bicycle hooks that I could bolt to the 2x6 that will sit up against the rack. That way when the cart gets to the top and is on the conveyor rollers, the cart can smoothly tilt and allow the tent to slide on. Those furniture moving blankets work great for cushioning as well. The Harbor Freight special. My tents are the 23Zero Armadillo A3, and the 4x4 Colorado Alto Mini. Both awesome tents, with different purposes.
The last time I put it on I shot video recording some of these details but I haven’t had a chance to go back through it. I’ve been too busy. I like the ideas that you have.
Amazing contraption. This is what i need for my rooftop tent
Can you share the wench?
When I was trying to fix my car radio, I got to a point where I couldn’t figure out if my app was working or not so I took it to an audio repair place and they tested my amp.
Red optical light flashing, what does it mean?Ive notice that the amp is the reason why no light loop,so i unplug the optical from amp and bypass with the fiber loop,but the red optical still flashes!!!AND how do i check if my amp is getting power?
Thanks for you video bro, it help a lot....
Hopefully you don’t off-road with that vehicle. If so, someday the heavy RTT will come crashing down. Those 2 crossbars are not sufficient to hold over the long haul
We don’t off-road.
I needed this, I thought of video it for others but not my forte. And for that I thank you

Today, i found out that both my air intake hoses were shot. I looked for hours and hours for replacement parts but its discontinued. Not even the mercedes dealership could help me. I have a 2011 E550 Sedan 4matic AMG sport package. The W212 E550's are rare. I somehow stumbled across this Spectre air duct/hose. Will arrive in a few days. You made it look soo easy. Im still gonna have it done at the shop though. Just my luck, I'll break something trying to do it myself.
where did you get it at my hoses are torn up too on my 2011 e550 😂
