Hi mate, I bought a Ford Custom 9 seat from Copart, and it happened the same way as you. On their site, it was cat N and when I applied for the v5, DVLA said they will not issue a v5 because it's scrapped and advised me to take it to the nearest scrap yard. But, called copart, made a complaint, and two days later, the scrap category was removed, and it was reverted back to cat N. So, make sure you put that complaint it to get it sorted. Keep up the good work! Inspirational 🤜🤛
But just because he fixed it in a 27 minute doesn't mean it took 27 mins, it could have taken 3 or 4 weeks to fix and with a bit of editing makes it look like a quick fix....
Can Copart stop doing ridiculous damage to a car in pretty much mint condition? Even as a part car, it makes no sense to keep damaging it with the stupid forklift.
Copart is huge but I can only imagine employ the same people as the smaller auctions - for some reason they are all clearly giving off the vibe of being ex-prisoners who hate society, or illegal immigrants who also hate society. It is just a funny part of their job to fuck over a car after you have bought it. The industry works in such a way you have to trust scumbags who get a kick moving cars around and damaging them, and their employers who fully back them because you just signed a contract.
classic auction car..... flooded.. maybe.. non runner..... pull the fuse for the starter.. replacement airbags blown or not...totals the car... fuse out... the clutch and starter are a result of long time no use.. nobody wanted it before that, insurance assessors value on what they see... they dont check fuses...... Dean saved it...... 👍👍👍👍 N x .
This is the channel for proper petrol heads. I love all of them for different things but for those of us who like technical stuff this is the one. Great video Dean.
No way that car can be called done!!, break lines not checked as well as an array of must checks after a reported flood damage, this car will possibly house a family, and not even a tourge wrenge is used to secure major components, your looking for a quick buck not a proper build sorry to say but I would not run a channel like this, you re promoting horrible ethics.
It is not just yourself with batteries, every rebuilder on UTube has the same problem, and all seem very surprised that the batteries are flat after 9 months in Co-Part. Word of caution, Car Vertical is not the only one out there, some are better.
This is my kind of video. Appreciate the fixes are not all so trouble free but it is nice to catch a successful ending all in one instalment. More of these please. (if possible)
Great Video and car, the alarm code is common. There is an alarm unit box under the top left inside front osf wheelarch behind the arch cover. There is an access bung on the top of the wing which is visible when the bonnet is open. You can reach in with the correct socket and undo it for removal. Will be crudded up, wd40 first as you already know(no offense). Very simple and cheap to replace, no coding needed. If your using the keyfob, arming and disarming the car and hearing nothing, it will be that.
In most modern manuals, don't you always have to depress the clutch before being able to turn the key to crank the engine? Before jumping to the starter, I could have checked it with the clutch depressed :) I love your videos. It's great, entertaining and highly educational!
@@Noncreativecontent So looking at the video again the clutch is depressed to the floor earlier on due to no master cylinder pressure and therefore car would allow engine to turn over if the fuse was in place and the starter motor was good. Later on, clutch is fixed and he depresses using foot
Just a headsup Bridging the Positive Terminal on a Starter won't cause it to engage without power to the Ignition feed on the solenoid it'll only spin in place.The ignition feed causes the plunger to close circuit and push the bendix out.
Is there a bendix on a pre engaged starter? Usually the solenoid throws the starter gear into mesh with the ring gear via a fork on the ones I have seen.
If you put a screwdriver across the 12v main and the 12v starter point on the solenoid being a spade terminal or m6 bolt or what ever it is on these.. it will engage the solenoid and then spin the starter motor over too you absolutely don't need to turn the key aswel as your taking the 12v from the main power cable
Great video, made me smile, had the same spec (- amplified black) for 5 years as daily and loved every bit of it, especially in snow. Did a stage1 remap and it was awesome. Everyone called mine Snowball.☺️ New owner is a lucky fella!
Hi my wife's car was written off, it ended up in Copart with parts missing. I asked the insurance assessor if Copart had taken the parts therefore depriving the insurance company of a better price, and he said the insurance company dose not own them. Copart buys them off the insurance company at a agreed percentage, so your comment on your bid was most likely Copart trying to get more money for themselves. The insurance company involved was Zurich, so a big firm.
I work in insurance and you are absolutely correct, that is exactly how it works. The price the insurance company get is pre-agreed depending on the vehicle value and total loss category. Copart then own the vehicle, and sell it or break it up as they see fit 👍
It would be interesting to see how the money/profit worked out. My experience with clutch slave cylinders was with early Minis. Fully external and secured with 2 bolts !
Clutch issue and the owner couldn't afford to fix it so he/she pulled a few fuses then claimed on the insurance that it was flood damaged so badly that the engine was seized and the starter wouldn't turn it over??
Diesel engine sound just doesn’t suit the TT - beautiful looking car but why someone would want to chuck a tractor engine into something so elegant is beyond me. However, that aside, well done on sorting that! Excellent video as always
@@runningvalver I had one. It sounds like a tractor especially at the lights. Didn't put me off I had a TT petrol and a TTS next.This vid makes me wish I still had one, but not diesel
@@AndyWright-qd6wq I'm building the third but this time quattro and an 1856, I should hopefully be done after this and I can move on, backwards or sideways.
I think you were a very lucky man as normally I would steer clear of any vehicle that had been water damaged because electronics can be a total pain in the but. baring in mind what you've spent on it you have a car with a reasonable amount of profit when sold biut it's finding the right customer.
Congrats Dean you did a brilliant job repairing the TT. Hope you can sort the log book and get an MOT glad to hear you did a carvertical check you wouldn't have known about it being scrapped
Definitely raffle it. I’m feeling lucky. I recently changed the transfer box on my daughter’s Q3 TDI. I removed the subframe completely just to make more room. I couldn’t get to the top bolt on the engine side and so I had to remove the gearbox to access it. The problem was caused by a garage who had changed the clutch for the same reason as you. Faulty slave cylinder. They somehow managed to break the seal housing for the rear flange and the transfer box lost its oil and seized. It all looks the same as your TT. I don’t know how you got that bolt out if it is the same. I just couldn’t get any socket or spanner anywhere near it.
Love your work mate, I do a few YT car tutorials aswell. For a minute there when you said the battery was in the boot ,you reminded me of an Audi A1 i worked on once , doing the same thing .That Turned out to be a burnt out battery cable causing simular issues but no, it was the Starter this time ! These cars like to throw surprises at us LOL.
only got the messuring on the starter but that voltage is too low should be more like 13 14 v if there is no load/ only ignition on so either the battery is bad or you have a vampire drain somewhere edit had the same fault twice on my golf 5 tdi 4 motion with the clutch nice to see i am not the only one
Amazing work done on it, was a fun journey to see this car come back to life, got me curious on the economics of rebuilding cars as opposed to buying ones in drivable condition, I wonder how much the parts were in this repair.
@@SavingSalvage I have never seen anyone ever show what you did with the app and now I have it will be burned in to the memory. My son was looking for a car recently and Car Vertical was the first link I sent him because of what is shown. Nice work Dean.
Car vertical is not the best option out there! It’s only because they’ve got a nice big marketing budget that they are on every TH-cam car build channel! You can get a top quality report for less than half of the CV price!

I think where the cars sat there for ages people have just robbed the fuses to fix other cars. Either that or someone’s just pulled it out to protect the engine
@@SavingSalvage A wide choice of fuses to pull. Convenient choice if you want to put off other buyers and snap it up for a song.

Should've loosened the sump plug a little to check for water in the oil. If the engine hasn't been run since it was flooded, the oil would just float to the top. Any water would settle in the sump where the oil pick up is 😱.
Do you think the previous owner created an insurance payout? A flood that didn’t happen (or at least didn’t cause too much genuine damage) and then pull out a handful of fuses to create the other issues? Nice payout, didn’t have to pay for a new slave cylinder?
Nice cars, loved my MK2 Black Edition. The all in one videos are always a better watch, but getting the cars that can be done in one hit must be pretty rare..
I do like the TT’s but really dont like a diesel TT, it’s supposed to be a small sports coupe, how does a 2l diesel fit into that category? Before anyone says it I know the new S5 is a 3l diesel, any cool car spoilt 😔
I wish i had done a check on my car before i bought it. The seller never told me it was a cat S, never told me head gasket was blown, He did point out that its passed 2 mot's a year for past 5 years as was used as a taxi. I will never buy a car without doing a full check first
I know it’s a small percentage of buyers, but a good few TH-camrs like yourself Dean seem to have trouble with Copart in one way or another... it feels like they just do not care (less than usual).
Hi, I've always fancied doing this and have played around in the passed. I'm looking at an unrecorded TT convertible quattro on a 08 plate. It looks only door damage. In your experience with it being a 3.2, will this make it harder to move on? Regards Fred
Loving your content, dude. Keep it up. One thing that has always baffled me about the TT, is why ANYONE would tick the 'diesel' option, when speccing this car 😂 looks great, sounds like a tractor.
From what I have experienced every single Cat N is a no go purely because no insurer wants to touch it without ludicrous premiums. It is amazing that a 19 year old girl working in a call centre can decide to Cat N a perfectly very easily repairable vehicle and the owners and have no come back.
My friend you can always turn the car into a track day car because um longs it's I don't know if the rules for driving on tracks but I mean it would make a perfect track day car but back in the date when I used to run my own business I used to buy written off cars called scrapped no longer existed physically important for spares it's cheap this way of doing it but anyway be interesting to see if you can turn into a tractday car❤
Am i the only one who noticed he didn't engage the solenoid on the syarter with the spanner ? And never ever leave a rusty flywheel and the flywheel movement isn't to stop vibration its to stop torque from snatching it forward
Wow so lucky with the TT Matey. Maybe raffle it off and hopefully I'll win this time, I really wanted the blue RS4 but it wasn't to be. Great video and do Defender nxt ? Cheers J

Copart should be liable as they are the one selling the car and should be fined

I nearly bought that car myself, won the bid once, but they wouldn't sell it to me at the price I won it for. Was great watching the video.
That was one of the fastest rebuilds you have done, it's nice to see one going that easy for a change
That's not a rebuild, it's a flog off

Great video and do Defender nxt ?
