Back in the day, that was known as a "Friday car." Legend had it, you didn't want a car built on Monday morning or Friday afternoon, for reasons that should be obvious.
@@immikeurnotI used to work for a major motor manufacturer. Cars built on Friday were usually good. Reason? If a car was found to have defects during end-of-line inspection, it was pulled off into a pound. The guys on the line did an overtime shift on Saturday morning to re-work the defects. So there was a system. On Monday, they would agree how much overtime they wanted that week. During the week, they would make the required number of defective vehicles to get the overtime they wanted. By Friday there were generally enough vehicles already in the rework pound, so that day's production would nearly always be good first time. There was also a system to identify cars that had been ordered by staff or their families / friends.... those cars were always built right first time too.
@@JustsomeblokeinYorkshireA schoolmate's father worked at Chrysler's Belvidere plant from the 60s to the 80s. They did have an overtime system where inspection fails were reworked, but in the late 70s to early 80s a lot slipped through.
@@Caffeinated-DaVinci It is, but it's also the workers learning how to play the system just like the "leaders of business" do. At least the vehicles were being fixed before being sent, unlike what's happening now.
We had a guy come in with a flat. Explorer. Told me it was in the back. Went to look, the whole back was filled with camping gear, tents and fishing rods, all with hooks. I didn't even touch it. I told him to get his butt out there and dig that flat out himself, I'm not digging through rusty fishhooks to get his darn tire.
Not in your job description. Of course, you could have just done it and billed the customer for the tetanus shot and the cost of urgent care pulling 27 fish hooks out of your hands.
I refuse to install those E3 spark plugs in any customers car. I did one once. Misfired right out of the garage door. Put Iridiums back in, misfire gone. Had multiple people come in saying they replaced their spark plugs and it still misfires with E3's. It was always either a dead coil or an E3 plug. Power of marketing I guess.
I knew someone who did that. Cars, trucks, a Corvette, houses - they'd buy them at some ridiculous interest rate, make about six payments, then let the bank take it back.
Thats what happens. I worked for a guy who had all these nice things and then suddenly my checks weren’t on time…. The truck that was once nice is now property of the bank because he was living out of his means. Whether it’s a nice car or not doesn’t mean it can’t get repoed for something stupid
@@philiprice7875 yes, if your car gets repossessed they'll charge you for having to come take the car (in early 2000s, it was around $500), give you the stuff inside (hopefully the repo guys dont have sticky fingers), and then auction it off. You still owe them the money you havent paid yet, plus the repo fee, minus what they get at auction. They are probably not going to get much at auction. Source: was part-time repo guy for a couple years
I can confirm that those E3 spark plugs are trash. I’m a small engine mechanic and there was a mower that came in and would sometimes act time the choke was stuck or would backfire badly. It ended up being those plugs that the owner had just put in.
@@ATruckCampbell it seems like they have really bad quality control. The two that I took out of the mower were the same part number but had completely different designs for the base.
@@ATruckCampbellthe best that I can determine is that their center electrode material is inferior. They will work through a few heat cycles and the spark becomes very weak or will not spark at all.. I also agree that quality control is an issue.
When I used to sell cars, we'd get questions like, "How much will my payments be?" No concern for the sale price. The interest rate. Insurance rates. Maintenance costs. Just because you *can* get it doesn't mean you *should* get it.
Your comment seems fishy.....because that's literally the job of a car salesman - to focus on the monthly payments (not the total price, insurance, maintenance, etc). The whole job of a car salesman is to sell cars by convincing people that they can afford them through 'reasonable' monthly payments. That must be why you don't sell cars anymore.
@@ian3580 There are multiple reasons I don't sell cars anymore and none of them are "fishy." There are also multiple approaches to selling cars. You can be the type who doesn't care one bit about a customer. Stick it to them. Convince them they can afford something that you know they can't. 'Forget' to mention problems. You can be a liar. "AlI need are those signatures in that packet and who cares after that!" But you can also be a salesman that understands that you can be something of a counselor. You can help guide them to a good choice and they'll be happier customers. You can be honest and straight with people and still sell cars. Here's an example: I had a woman come in one day. She had her son with her. He was about 10 years old. They were super interested in a '65 Mustang we had on the lot. It was a straight six. Non-fastback. Drums all around. This car was unrestored and needed a good bit of work. This would be a fun project car or something to knock around in on the weekend. I think we had it listed for $6,500. (About fifteen years ago.) As I'm talking to her it's clear she doesn't know too much about cars, especially owning something with that much age. No mechanical knowledge. I asked her if this would be her only car and she said yes. Hmm...Ok, this would probably be a terrible idea. However, I didn't say anything about that and still suggested we take the car for a spin. I showed her how to open the hood, then let her do it. Had the boy hold a paper towel and showed them how to read the dipstick because she'd never done that before. "You'll want to do this pretty regularly just to be sure. This will tell us if there's any water in the motor and make sure the oil level is right. I like to check the radiator just as a habit. It's not difficult it's just something to think about." We started the car and drove it a bit. It was fun. We all enjoyed it. But on this ride, I totally dialed back my usual 'sales pitch' talk. When we got back to the dealership I asked her what she thought. She said she didn't know. (Usually I'd say something like, "Let's go finish up this paperwork and you can drive it home now." It varied. You just have to feel where people are.) "Can I make a suggestion? I have something else I'd like to show you that's close to the same price." I ended up selling her either a Honda or a Toyota. I don't remember but it was Japanese. Was I wrong to tone down my enthusiasm towards the Mustang and redirect it to the more dependable car? I don't think so. Not much later, couple months, she was back. This time she had her mother with her and I sold her mother a car. I was really proud about that. My manager had customers that he'd sold multiple cars to over the years. People would buy cars for their teenaged kids from him because they trusted him and I tried to be like that. I also wanted to state for the record that my original comment was an observation of how some potential customers I had paid no heed to the actual cost of ownership of a car. Nowhere did I state I told anyone No. If you want to buy a car and we can get it financed or you're buying it outright I'll sell you the car. Whatever you want. I know you were trying to be offensive but you gave me a chance to respond with this long message that I've enjoyed writing. I might call up my old manager tomorrow and see how he's doing.
I was with a friend looking a car at the local Chevrolet dealer and they refused to answer the question of price on the car; the only number they would give him was the monthly payment. I told him we should leave.
He would rather tank his credit, and get the car repoed? damn talk about spending 10s of thousands on a fix that would have cost 100. Who thinks like that.
I've never had to deal with anything like that, but if you destroy a car and it gets repo'd, aren't you still on the hook for the difference between the owed amount and the current value of the car? Repo isn't a magic get out of debt free card...
@@robadams1645 Worse. When they repo the car, they take it to auction, and only subtract what the auction brings from what you owe. Something that's smoking like a steam train get sold REALLY cheap at auction. At the dealer auctions, there are dishonest assholes that will unplug sensors under the hood before the auction so it comes up with a check engine light on or AC not working, and they can get it cheaper, knowing that all it takes is plugging something back in. Source: I was lead tech at a place that did repairs and sold used cars, and have seen that shit happen.
@markh.6687 lol true, but the jb weld can pull it off...... if you use the HIGH HEAT formula..... Which I doubt he used and slapped standard all over the place, now that clock is running.....
They probably never check the oil level or get oil changes. Back in 2005 I met a guy who had a 1989 Chevrolet R1500 Suburban. He purchased it brand new and never got oil changes or checked the oil level. It was ready for it's fourth engine.
The owner of "Smokey Oil Change Corvette" is in for a VERY rude awakening when he learns that just letting the car get repo-ed does NOT square him up on what he owes on the car, and he will STILL owe the balance ABOVE the pittance the car will sell for at a dealer auction!! We're talking well into 5 figures, I'm betting!
Nah. He knows its going to be repossessed anyway. He just wanted to find out if the smoking can be stopped at zero or near zero cost so he can take his moll out in it one last time.
If you have the Corvette repossessed, you still owe the bank the full loan amount. So you will still owe the bank the difference between the Corvette auction proceeds, and the loan amount, which will be a substantial amount of money. Giving the car back does not magically make the loan amount disappear.
@@KaitouKaiju they still owe the debt. The bank will auction the car, and you owe the difference. My daughter just went through it. She had a Hyundai with a bad engine. She paid to put a new engine in once. It blew again. The cost of the repo, was less than putting in another engine, that would blow again. Hyundai's engine warranty is only for the original owner, and she bought used. She is making payments, and suing Hyundai.
I think I've seen spark plugs like that for use in lawn mower engines. You've got to wonder the thought process of the schmuck who thought Briggs & Straton was synonymous with Porsche...
Bro what are these people’s excuses for messing up their repairs so bad? Im 16 and just replaced a wheel bearing on my dads car alone. No issues after and a shop did inspection.
dirtbags who've never heard of Rock Auto and think car parts are too expensive so they come up with "fixes" that are more effort and more expensive than just buying the proper part.
OMG folks!!! The very BEST spark plug you can put in any stock engine is made by .. ..the company that made the original plug came with from the factory. The company spends millions of dollars trying to squeeze every fractional HP and MPG from engines. You don't think they gave any thought to the plugs??? Those stupid trick plugs are garbage and cause problems while solving nothing.
Well, I agree with you on not sticking hyped aftermarket plugs in your engine. But "The company spends millions of dollars trying to squeeze every fractional HP and MPG from engines"?? And then I get myself a chip tune, and all of a sudden my engine has 30% more HP,, more torque, better MPG and all still within environmental limits. Hmmm..
For consumables like those, the companies choose a part provider that will give them products within their intented specs at the price they want. They may not be the best, tho. But you're right that unless the manufacturer suddenly do something wrong, picking up the same brand and model is a safe bet.
@@scsirob It's not within environmental limits - it's within the limits the catalytic converter can scrub, not to mention the extra strain the tune puts on the engine. VW tried a multi tune trick in their factory ECMs and got effed over by the government for their effort.
@@ohger1 Well in this case it's a Volvo S60 T2, standard with 150-ish HP that is also available as T4 with 200+ HP. Exact same engine. Exact same chassis. Same transmission too. The entire chain is designed to deliver 200+ HP. It's purely a marketing.
I wonder if the Corvette owner realizes that having the car repossessed doesn't mean that their financial responsibility just disappears. It means that they have no car and still get to pay for it!
I know! I shake my head every time! And my family is on me for the "jalopy" I drive??! (Hint, it's not a jalopy-I make vids about it on youtube-it's a 27 year old Civic I bought new with 375k miles)
i dont understand why people complain to shops that their car has a problem, the mechanics figure out what the problem is, then the customer says "nahh i dont want it repaired"
They either thought it would be free or next to free. A large portion of people substantially under-value auto repair and think that everything should be fixed for $100 or less.
Might be heading to the scrap yard next, so why get it fixed? Some folks don't understand the extent of the damage until they have a mechanic look at it. Yes, there are people who get confused about what a "710" is.
Never would I have thought I would see someone grind down incorrect rockers and space them with washers 🤦♂️ A little knowledge about what things are but not understanding what they do can be dangerous to someone who thinks they know everything
3:20 - Twist the knob on the kitchen timer (glued to the rear driver's side door) and tell the owner they've got to get that Liberty out of your lot before the bell rings! Nice "Pepto-Bismol Pink" VW Thing at the end! Don't see too many of those anymore.
1:20 - Amazing that car even got out of the assembly plant. Isn't there an entire post-assembly inspection before it ever rolls out the plant door? Or (probably likely) the original door was damaged on the storage lot or during transport and was simply replaced with whatever exterior color matched...
I think i figured something out... The more dramatic and dangerous the issue on the car is, the less is the chance the customer let it be fixed... Praise me!
In the UK we are required to have a yearly vehicle inspection of all the critical systems. It's a Government policy, called an MOT Certificate, and almost no-one will buy (and certainly no-one will insure or tax) a vehicle that hasn't passed its most recent MOT. They cost about £45 a year, but at least you know that the vast majority of vehicles are roadworthy. They might be driven by morons, but they are mechanically sound. Americans might have more personal freedom to decide on the level of care for their vehicles, but honestly many of these vehicles worry me. Also, our roads (though often pitted due to local Government struggling to keep them repaired) have higher speed limits than American ones, and I'd be horrified to see some of those deathtraps doing 70mph next to me.
A number of US states do these inspections like Pennsylvania and California, they vary in detail though, I grew up in Pennsylvania and when I was living in north Carolina I had a car I was sure would fail inspection for at least 3 reasons. Broken door hinge making drivers door inoperable,noisy rear brakes,, etc.. The mechanic said no problem, we don't need to check those things. I was shocked because it would surely have failed in PA. Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee have no inspection.
Americans need to get a state/safety inspection, too, or they won't be able to register their vehicle. However, people do flaut the laws, but please don't believe that an inspection isn't required. In my state we pay a separate registration fee as well as pay an inspection fee. Depending on the state, the registration fee varies based on the model year of the vehicle which can be several hundred dollars. Because people are unable to pay the registration fee, you'll see vehicles like some of the ones in these videos with these horrible "repairs" driving ILLEGALLY on the roads.
@@jeffreypgorman In NY, there's always someone who knows a guy who will slap a sticker on for an extra $20 as long as there are no codes. I see a lot of trucks every day that are as bad, if not worse, than some of the rotting corpses on this channel with brand new inspection stickers on them.
To be fair (maybe), some of these drivers WILL get the vehicle fixed, but they'll try to do it themselves or have someone who quotes a lower price do the work. Not ALL main dealers or garages are rip-offs, but many people mistrust mechanics in general.
@@theaikidoka There are a LOT of shady mechanics out there. I took a car to one which a parts store recommended to fix an electrical issue when the windows stopped working. After I got it back, the windows worked but the power outlets didn't, though they did when I took it in. They refused to take any responsibility.
Several years back my health was BAD but my truck had a bad oil leak. I swallowed my pride and took it to a mechanic shop. He diagnosed a rear main seal. Which, laying under it, looked like the right call since it was all dripping from around the bell housing. I paid this shop $1,200 because I was in no shape to drop a transmission. Needed a new oil pan gasket, too, for another $440. I told him no on that. Got my truck back. Still leaking. He said it's the oil pan. Nope. It was the oil pressure sensor the whole damn time. It still worked but was skeeting oil out the top. Took me fifteen minutes to swap out. Anyway, I haven't used a mechanic in twenty years and when I was essentially forced to, I got reamed.
If someone says they plan to abuse their car's engine before letting it get repossessed, that sounds like wanton destruction. This statement could backfire big time. The loan company could go after them for trashing their collateral, and the insurance company might refuse to cover the damage or even accuse them of fraud. Plus, there's the risk of facing criminal charges for intentionally destroying property. This kind of behavior also affects other borrowers because it can lead to higher rates for everyone. It's just a bad move all around and could bring serious legal and financial trouble.
3:37 "How can we help you today?" "Well... my brakes failed. I was driving along the street but when I braked, my car didn't stop at the lights and I drove into a toys and crafts store. They also just had a delivery of glue that day..."
It should be illegal to leave a car w/ a problem & say "I'll just have it repossessed". If it's that close to being repossessed, you're not really the owner anyway & have no right to do that to property that is going back to someone else...
Yes, Lets ruin our credit rating because we do not want to pay the $150 to fix the issue. Also What? You need to have the engine running to check oil level? What the bloody hell happened to the dipstick which just checks the level?
Having the engine running is because that Corvette has a "dry sump" oiling system meaning the oil isn't stored in the oil pan under the engine but is rather held in a separate tank. Oil is constantly being pumped out of the bottom of the crankcase and into the tank and then pumped back to the engine, but if the engine isn't running oil can pool in the engine crankcase giving an inaccurate reading. Some high performance cars like certain Corvettes or Camaros have this, It's to prevent oil starvation/slosh under heavy cornering or braking.
What the hell is with that monstrosity at the end?! Imagine that just slowly rolling through a foggy late autumn night with just the fog lights on, would give Freddy nightmares.
A guy came in and asked if we could help him with his Lombardini 502 for a moped car. Of course we could, since we were an authorized repair shop for Lombardini. But we declined when he came in the next day with all parts in two shopping bags, totally disassembled.
The problem is that state inspections go too far. My mom's car failed just because the check engine light was on. The problem was just that the fuel level was reading slightly off. Cost over $1k to fix a problem that wasn't an emissions problem and wasn't a safety issue. It never needed fixing, but she had to just to pass a stupid inspection.
I think the UK MOT strikes a pretty good balance, it's really just about safety and emissions. I even had an airbag light on for one and didn't even get an advisory.
@@andrewcampbellskiWow, here the inspections are bi anually and No warning or error lamps can be illuminated. Airbag = safety system not working = car is unsafe to drive = instant fail
@@nodak81 I'm curious how an incorrect fuel level reading would trigger the check engine light. I mean, how would the car even know? Now if the fuel level sensor had a fault, that could result in a Diagnostic Trouble Code like P0463, but that's a failed sensor possibly an electrical short in the tank, which is very much something to fix.
In fairness, you don't check the oil level running in most cars and most oil websites say "car must be turned off to get an accurate reading", so if this is his first dry sump, you can't really blame him for not knowing: at least he put oil in it...😂
I see these and thank God for what my father taught me growing up... he was a mechanic when I was born... had a better job later, but I was his helper working on both our cars and those of his friends
Total trash. Why anyone would want to install a copper based plug from the beginning of spark plugs that has three ground straps covering up the spark, that only last 5 to 10 K, vs a platinum or iridium that lasts 100K? It's just snake oil, like the "fuel shark" cigarette lighter plug in that was, and still is a literal LED light that glows when you plug it in and yet some people still swore it saved them fuel. Stupid people buy all kinds of marketing hype.
Some people just make me think they should not even waste money to buy a car. Take it to a mechanic to figure out a problem, then decline repairs...WTF? And REALLY? I don't need to change the oil, I'll jut call the bank to come get it. Perfect sense to me.
It's because that Corvette has a "dry sump" oiling system meaning the oil isn't stored in the oil pan under the engine but is rather held in a separate tank. It's to prevent oil starvation/slosh under heavy cornering or braking.
There's a thing called an "owners manual" which probably mentions that several times. Putting that much oil into a car and not saying to yourself "well this ain't right" tells you alot about that owner.
@@ischmidt It is pretty catastrophic damage when the windage tray is smashed to bits. Has to be an oil issue or revving it to the moon all the time, as a rod must've broken, given the damage.
@@ischmidt Even the poorest manufacturer wouldn't make engines THAT badly. They'd be out of business because word would spread FAST. That's user error.
It's not that important to be a expert. There are people out there who know a lot like Eric O from south main auto. You can learn a lot and just simple methods can get a long cheap way.

You can be the type who doesn't care one bit about a customer. Stick it to them. Convince them they can afford something that you know they can't. 'Forget' to mention problems. You can be a liar. "AlI need are those signatures in that packet and who cares after that!"
But you can also be a salesman that understands that you can be something of a counselor. You can help guide them to a good choice and they'll be happier customers. You can be honest and straight with people and still sell cars.
Here's an example:
I had a woman come in one day. She had her son with her. He was about 10 years old. They were super interested in a '65 Mustang we had on the lot. It was a straight six. Non-fastback. Drums all around. This car was unrestored and needed a good bit of work. This would be a fun project car or something to knock around in on the weekend. I think we had it listed for $6,500. (About fifteen years ago.)
As I'm talking to her it's clear she doesn't know too much about cars, especially owning something with that much age. No mechanical knowledge. I asked her if this would be her only car and she said yes. Hmm...Ok, this would probably be a terrible idea. However, I didn't say anything about that and still suggested we take the car for a spin. I showed her how to open the hood, then let her do it. Had the boy hold a paper towel and showed them how to read the dipstick because she'd never done that before.
"You'll want to do this pretty regularly just to be sure. This will tell us if there's any water in the motor and make sure the oil level is right. I like to check the radiator just as a habit. It's not difficult it's just something to think about."
We started the car and drove it a bit. It was fun. We all enjoyed it. But on this ride, I totally dialed back my usual 'sales pitch' talk. When we got back to the dealership I asked her what she thought. She said she didn't know. (Usually I'd say something like, "Let's go finish up this paperwork and you can drive it home now." It varied. You just have to feel where people are.)
"Can I make a suggestion? I have something else I'd like to show you that's close to the same price." I ended up selling her either a Honda or a Toyota. I don't remember but it was Japanese.
Was I wrong to tone down my enthusiasm towards the Mustang and redirect it to the more dependable car? I don't think so.
Not much later, couple months, she was back. This time she had her mother with her and I sold her mother a car. I was really proud about that.
My manager had customers that he'd sold multiple cars to over the years. People would buy cars for their teenaged kids from him because they trusted him and I tried to be like that.
I also wanted to state for the record that my original comment was an observation of how some potential customers I had paid no heed to the actual cost of ownership of a car. Nowhere did I state I told anyone No. If you want to buy a car and we can get it financed or you're buying it outright I'll sell you the car. Whatever you want.
I know you were trying to be offensive but you gave me a chance to respond with this long message that I've enjoyed writing.
I might call up my old manager tomorrow and see how he's doing.
@@ian3580well, some people have morals.
I was with a friend looking a car at the local Chevrolet dealer and they refused to answer the question of price on the car; the only number they would give him was the monthly payment.
I told him we should leave.

So many declined repairs makes me worry driving on the highway.
Now imagine being a tech for 20+ years...
It is concerning. What is even more concerning is the complete lack of training required to get a driver's license in the US.
Or the mechanic made a high estimate because they didn't want to work on the car.
3:20 Every woman who cries out "Dear God, what is that thing‽" will echo in your perfect ears.
He would rather tank his credit, and get the car repoed? damn talk about spending 10s of thousands on a fix that would have cost 100. Who thinks like that.
I've never had to deal with anything like that, but if you destroy a car and it gets repo'd, aren't you still on the hook for the difference between the owed amount and the current value of the car? Repo isn't a magic get out of debt free card...
A fool does that.
Nobody is considering the biggest factor in all of this: military grade, industrial strength, triple A stupidity.
His credit is already tanked. His loan on that car was probably at 25% APR.
@@robadams1645 Worse. When they repo the car, they take it to auction, and only subtract what the auction brings from what you owe. Something that's smoking like a steam train get sold REALLY cheap at auction.
At the dealer auctions, there are dishonest assholes that will unplug sensors under the hood before the auction so it comes up with a check engine light on or AC not working, and they can get it cheaper, knowing that all it takes is plugging something back in.
Source: I was lead tech at a place that did repairs and sold used cars, and have seen that shit happen.
Well, at least he used JB Weld on the exhaust, and not Flex Tape. :)
@markh.6687 lol true, but the jb weld can pull it off...... if you use the HIGH HEAT formula.....
Which I doubt he used and slapped standard all over the place, now that clock is running.....
Or cling film.
Everyone knows spray foam is the best thing for fixing exhaust leaks, cheaper then JB Weld too :)
There may well be a layer of melted Flex Tape under the JB.

Isn't it usually waived if you get the repairs there?
@@maryrose2676 ya it is. I just mean because these people get their cars looked at to find the problem then deny all repairs lol.

@@PanameraTurboSEHybrid regardless of what they do they still have to pay the diagnostic fee.

How can the Jeep guy go through so many engines?
It's a Jeep thing!
Because Mopar
They probably never check the oil level or get oil changes. Back in 2005 I met a guy who had a 1989 Chevrolet R1500 Suburban. He purchased it brand new and never got oil changes or checked the oil level. It was ready for it's fourth engine.
Maybe nobody should buy these cars anymore?
I think it tells you alot about the driver..... 3 engines? WTF?
The owner of "Smokey Oil Change Corvette" is in for a VERY rude awakening when he learns that just letting the car get repo-ed does NOT square him up on what he owes on the car, and he will STILL owe the balance ABOVE the pittance the car will sell for at a dealer auction!! We're talking well into 5 figures, I'm betting!
Nah. He knows its going to be repossessed anyway. He just wanted to find out if the smoking can be stopped at zero or near zero cost so he can take his moll out in it one last time.
If the loan company see's what happened with that oil he likely be on hook for a lot more if there is engine damage.
His moll 😂😂😂
If you have the Corvette repossessed, you still owe the bank the full loan amount. So you will still owe the bank the difference between the Corvette auction proceeds, and the loan amount, which will be a substantial amount of money. Giving the car back does not magically make the loan amount disappear.
People will just let it go to collections and tank their credit
@@KaitouKaiju then wonder why their credit card is declined, and bank staff laugh at them
@@KaitouKaiju they still owe the debt. The bank will auction the car, and you owe the difference. My daughter just went through it. She had a Hyundai with a bad engine. She paid to put a new engine in once. It blew again. The cost of the repo, was less than putting in another engine, that would blow again. Hyundai's engine warranty is only for the original owner, and she bought used. She is making payments, and suing Hyundai.
@@KaitouKaiju The bank will place liens and try to seize assets. It's not just a matter of having bad credit.

Them some TEMU spark plugs.
I think I've seen spark plugs like that for use in lawn mower engines.
You've got to wonder the thought process of the schmuck who thought Briggs & Straton was synonymous with Porsche...
Bro what are these people’s excuses for messing up their repairs so bad? Im 16 and just replaced a wheel bearing on my dads car alone. No issues after and a shop did inspection.
Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, or something
dirtbags who've never heard of Rock Auto and think car parts are too expensive so they come up with "fixes" that are more effort and more expensive than just buying the proper part.
OMG folks!!! The very BEST spark plug you can put in any stock engine is made by ..
..the company that made the original plug came with from the factory. The company spends millions of dollars trying to squeeze every fractional HP and MPG from engines. You don't think they gave any thought to the plugs???
Those stupid trick plugs are garbage and cause problems while solving nothing.
Well, I agree with you on not sticking hyped aftermarket plugs in your engine. But "The company spends millions of dollars trying to squeeze every fractional HP and MPG from engines"?? And then I get myself a chip tune, and all of a sudden my engine has 30% more HP,, more torque, better MPG and all still within environmental limits. Hmmm..
Probably got from Temu 😂
For consumables like those, the companies choose a part provider that will give them products within their intented specs at the price they want.
They may not be the best, tho. But you're right that unless the manufacturer suddenly do something wrong, picking up the same brand and model is a safe bet.
@@scsirob It's not within environmental limits - it's within the limits the catalytic converter can scrub, not to mention the extra strain the tune puts on the engine. VW tried a multi tune trick in their factory ECMs and got effed over by the government for their effort.
@@ohger1 Well in this case it's a Volvo S60 T2, standard with 150-ish HP that is also available as T4 with 200+ HP. Exact same engine. Exact same chassis. Same transmission too. The entire chain is designed to deliver 200+ HP. It's purely a marketing.
In trucking, one of the names for that shifter is a "monkey hanger"....
I wonder if the Corvette owner realizes that having the car repossessed doesn't mean that their financial responsibility just disappears. It means that they have no car and still get to pay for it!
3 engines and the customer is buying a 4th, he must do a hell of a lot of mileage.
I think he does a hell of a lot of stupid.

Got their PhD in shadetree repair.
i dont understand why people complain to shops that their car has a problem, the mechanics figure out what the problem is, then the customer says "nahh i dont want it repaired"
They either thought it would be free or next to free. A large portion of people substantially under-value auto repair and think that everything should be fixed for $100 or less.
Might be heading to the scrap yard next, so why get it fixed? Some folks don't understand the extent of the damage until they have a mechanic look at it. Yes, there are people who get confused about what a "710" is.
They might be trying to fix it themselves, but can't figure out the problem.

Or (probably likely) the original door was damaged on the storage lot or during transport and was simply replaced with whatever exterior color matched...
Most likel damagedin transit. I've seen mismatched side to side (1 guy "inspects" the left and another the right) but not on the same side.
That corvette owner probably has a life long history of making questionable choices. I'm sure his family can attest to that.
his whole damn existance was made via a very questionable choice, I bet.
I think i figured something out... The more dramatic and dangerous the issue on the car is, the less is the chance the customer let it be fixed... Praise me!
In the UK we are required to have a yearly vehicle inspection of all the critical systems. It's a Government policy, called an MOT Certificate, and almost no-one will buy (and certainly no-one will insure or tax) a vehicle that hasn't passed its most recent MOT. They cost about £45 a year, but at least you know that the vast majority of vehicles are roadworthy. They might be driven by morons, but they are mechanically sound.
Americans might have more personal freedom to decide on the level of care for their vehicles, but honestly many of these vehicles worry me. Also, our roads (though often pitted due to local Government struggling to keep them repaired) have higher speed limits than American ones, and I'd be horrified to see some of those deathtraps doing 70mph next to me.
A number of US states do these inspections like Pennsylvania and California, they vary in detail though, I grew up in Pennsylvania and when I was living in north Carolina I had a car I was sure would fail inspection for at least 3 reasons. Broken door hinge making drivers door inoperable,noisy rear brakes,, etc.. The mechanic said no problem, we don't need to check those things. I was shocked because it would surely have failed in PA. Kentucky, Ohio and Tennessee have no inspection.
Same MOT, APK. Auto Securité here in 🇳🇱 and 🇧🇪.
Americans need to get a state/safety inspection, too, or they won't be able to register their vehicle. However, people do flaut the laws, but please don't believe that an inspection isn't required. In my state we pay a separate registration fee as well as pay an inspection fee. Depending on the state, the registration fee varies based on the model year of the vehicle which can be several hundred dollars. Because people are unable to pay the registration fee, you'll see vehicles like some of the ones in these videos with these horrible "repairs" driving ILLEGALLY on the roads.
Pennsylvania has yearly inspections through the DOT too, as do 14 other states. What's your point?
@@jeffreypgorman In NY, there's always someone who knows a guy who will slap a sticker on for an extra $20 as long as there are no codes. I see a lot of trucks every day that are as bad, if not worse, than some of the rotting corpses on this channel with brand new inspection stickers on them.
The Santa Fe's door doesn't match because it's a HYBRID.
I wonder how many times an owner declines repairs until they actually get it fixed?
To be fair (maybe), some of these drivers WILL get the vehicle fixed, but they'll try to do it themselves or have someone who quotes a lower price do the work. Not ALL main dealers or garages are rip-offs, but many people mistrust mechanics in general.
i love it after they attempt repairs they bring it back and shop declines work
@@theaikidoka There are a LOT of shady mechanics out there. I took a car to one which a parts store recommended to fix an electrical issue when the windows stopped working. After I got it back, the windows worked but the power outlets didn't, though they did when I took it in. They refused to take any responsibility.
Several years back my health was BAD but my truck had a bad oil leak. I swallowed my pride and took it to a mechanic shop. He diagnosed a rear main seal. Which, laying under it, looked like the right call since it was all dripping from around the bell housing.
I paid this shop $1,200 because I was in no shape to drop a transmission.
Needed a new oil pan gasket, too, for another $440. I told him no on that.
Got my truck back. Still leaking. He said it's the oil pan.
Nope. It was the oil pressure sensor the whole damn time. It still worked but was skeeting oil out the top. Took me fifteen minutes to swap out.
Anyway, I haven't used a mechanic in twenty years and when I was essentially forced to, I got reamed.
If someone says they plan to abuse their car's engine before letting it get repossessed, that sounds like wanton destruction. This statement could backfire big time. The loan company could go after them for trashing their collateral, and the insurance company might refuse to cover the damage or even accuse them of fraud. Plus, there's the risk of facing criminal charges for intentionally destroying property. This kind of behavior also affects other borrowers because it can lead to higher rates for everyone. It's just a bad move all around and could bring serious legal and financial trouble.
most people just dont care due no consequences ever.

;-) One of my favorite lines: 'Customer declined repairs...' ;-)
Sad, but true.
It should be illegal to leave a car w/ a problem & say "I'll just have it repossessed". If it's that close to being repossessed, you're not really the owner anyway & have no right to do that to property that is going back to someone else...
It’s amazing ppl who own those cars shouldn’t have cars if they don’t know it requires periodic maintenance
Yes, Lets ruin our credit rating because we do not want to pay the $150 to fix the issue.
Also What?
You need to have the engine running to check oil level?
What the bloody hell happened to the dipstick which just checks the level?
Having the engine running is because that Corvette has a "dry sump" oiling system meaning the oil isn't stored in the oil pan under the engine but is rather held in a separate tank. Oil is constantly being pumped out of the bottom of the crankcase and into the tank and then pumped back to the engine, but if the engine isn't running oil can pool in the engine crankcase giving an inaccurate reading.
Some high performance cars like certain Corvettes or Camaros have this, It's to prevent oil starvation/slosh under heavy cornering or braking.

I get why people don't want state inspections but knowing all these bad vehicles are on the road scares me!!!!😂😂
We have state inspections here in New York and the cars that pass STILL scare me.
The problem is that state inspections go too far. My mom's car failed just because the check engine light was on. The problem was just that the fuel level was reading slightly off. Cost over $1k to fix a problem that wasn't an emissions problem and wasn't a safety issue. It never needed fixing, but she had to just to pass a stupid inspection.
I think the UK MOT strikes a pretty good balance, it's really just about safety and emissions. I even had an airbag light on for one and didn't even get an advisory.
@@andrewcampbellskiWow, here the inspections are bi anually and No warning or error lamps can be illuminated.
Airbag = safety system not working = car is unsafe to drive = instant fail
@@nodak81 I'm curious how an incorrect fuel level reading would trigger the check engine light. I mean, how would the car even know?
Now if the fuel level sensor had a fault, that could result in a Diagnostic Trouble Code like P0463, but that's a failed sensor possibly an electrical short in the tank, which is very much something to fix.
In fairness, you don't check the oil level running in most cars and most oil websites say "car must be turned off to get an accurate reading", so if this is his first dry sump, you can't really blame him for not knowing: at least he put oil in it...😂

Feel sorry for the Corvette owner in a way as checking oil level with engine running is pretty unusual
Especially an expensive one.
It's because that Corvette has a "dry sump" oiling system meaning the oil isn't stored in the oil pan under the engine but is rather held in a separate tank. It's to prevent oil starvation/slosh under heavy cornering or braking.
There's a thing called an "owners manual" which probably mentions that several times. Putting that much oil into a car and not saying to yourself "well this ain't right" tells you alot about that owner.
It's certainly not something I would know. Unless I bought a car that way, then I'd learn.
