every time i buy a second hand car i replace the cabin filter, oil, oil filter, air filter regardless of them being needed. My yearly service just before an mot is to replace the air filter, oil, oil filter. I also check the brakes and disc's regularly so i know it stands a good chance to pass the mot and emmissions
Totally agree with this mate. Very difficult to know if it’s actually been serviced or not; trust me I’ve come across many of these dealers that have ‘serviced’ a vehicle before handing it over to a new customer
@@AI-Records24 believe it or not but i think it is only about 10% of car owners that actually do this themselfs. I agree mechanics should be taught as part of the curiculum in schools. I wish i learnt mechanics.
Engine oil+filter usually around 10.000 Km, pollenfilter every 12 months, air and fuel filter 40-60.000Km. Haldex oil+filter 30.000Km. This works good for me where I live :)
I'm so glad you finally have another video out was waiting so long and as always I absolutely loved it great video again 😍 and this video goes to show exactly why I don't trust garages to do the work and always carry out my own service on my own and families cars I replace my oil and filter every 5 to 7 thosand miles or once a year which ever comes first using castrol oil and Mann filter and i replace the fuel filter around every 30k miles and the cabin filter every year.
Like we never left! Good interval that. Where I grew up, all filters needs to be changed every 6 months. Too dusty where I came from and also fuel wasn’t the cleanest /;
BG products do a great fuel system cleaner also. BG245. Used this for the last few years on a VW TDi whose EGR was clogged. Engine would rough idle and would not start some times. This product transformed the engine and brought it back to original
Marvellous..so happy you NEED a videographer editor and admin team shows how TRUSTED you must be as a content creator on Youbbs and a mobile mechanic AND how much your channel is seen by US.. 👍✌🤜🏽
I had my EGR valve out about 3 weeks ago, it was pretty plugged, and the car had a lack of power, and ran like crap... mind you a 2001 VW Jetta TDI doesn't go super fast anyway. I cleaned everything up the best I could, and it does run quite a bit better now. Maybe I should try some of that stuff you were talking about. I am not sure they would ship to Canada. Hopefully there is a link for it so I can check it out. Cheers, Rob.
no one needs additives, weather they work or not is a bit irrelevant, most of that stuff exists in decent fuel. (to some extent there's probably some in supermarket swill) this is all that separates the different stations, because all the stations in ya area are fed from the same refinery. its just the stuff they dump in the tanker that's different. and the "good" people at shell/esso/bp ect. put a cocktail of all the same bollocks people are horribly overpaying for to "clean" their engine or dpf or whatever, save yourself the money and just use good fuel. or a tank of good fuel once and a while.
Hi guys, because I am disabled I had a mechanic do a full flush of my breaks. I believe they just hooked up a suction machine at the wheels but they didn't feel any better. I had a new mechanic do a full rear end rebuild and when I got it back I touched the brakes and thank god for my seatbelt or I would have gone through the windscreen. I always used to do an old-school bleed at the end to make sure I have all the bubbles out because the vibration of a machine can cause bubbles to stay in the line.
The machine that we used for brake bleeding is very similar to what main dealers would use if they would do the brake bleeding process. The vibration that you can hear is actually coming from the ABS pump (when I was pressing on the pedal). It does that to evacuate tiny air bubbles in the system and also out of the solenoids
Additives (fuel or oil) make me nervous. The car manufacturers, oil manufacturers and fuel manufacturers spend a fortune testing everything, developing standards, testing that things meet the standards. How do we know what has or hasn't been tested with any given additive? what it might damage, etc.? The video at 19:14 even shows that the fuel cap says "no additives". BMW are nervous too! It doesn't say "no additives apart from Launch whatever, which will make everything last much longer".
your note about 19:14 it's simple to explain: dealers want to things have a short life to obligate customers to go to the dealership...bmw gearboxes also have another funny quote which is "gearbox lifetime oil" or something like that, sure, that's why outside the gearbox have a sticker saying the type of oil used...if it's lifetime oil, why the reference to the oil since it's filled up in the factory?
@@luispalma8029 Well even if it was lifetime (not saying that's a good idea), you'd still need to know what to put in if it gets a leak, or you have to change the cooler and lose some fluid, or whatever. I don't buy that BMW printed that on the cap because they want their engines to wear out fast, and they're worried that all the good additives out there will make them last too long. I mean granted they do often seem to have a short life, but I think that's incompetence and/or cheaping out, not deliberate. They'd like them to last ages, both for no warranty claims and for a good reputation and repeat purchases.
@@luispalma8029it isn’t bmw that say that though it’s ZF who make the gearboxes and it’s actually marketing; lifetime means for the life of the vehicle until the warranty expires generally between 60-100k miles depending on manufacturer. It’s so they can sell it you with less maintenance cost. Doesn’t mean you should never change it it means it’s designed to last for the lifetime of the warranty, then change after that.
Hi Gents, love the content and your work ethic, honest perfectionists! I recently subscribed to your channel and have been binge watching the Marvelous Mechaniques' escapades. Keep up the good work :) I am big fan of Launch products, I have been using the Advance Engine Flush for a while. I have recently purchased the Launch Turbo, EGR and DPF cleaner also. My question is, should I use this before the engine flush/service or after the engine flush/service or does it depend if the fuel filter is changed at service? Thanks in advance and looking foward to more content!
Hey Steve! Thank you for watching our shenanigans 😂 To answer you question, it’s more beneficial to use the TECD AFTER the service, though it doesn’t really matter. Only reason I would personally use it after service is because there will be a lot less contaminants in the oil, which will significantly bring down the soot content in the exhaust gases; which means TECD can focus more at burning the soot that already exists in the post-combustion system… but like what I said, post or pre service, it doesn’t really matter 😁
Very much enjoy both your expertise and enthusiasm. One query: in most of your videos the vehicle plate is shown- is that wise in these days of cloning? Perhaps get your new video staff to blur these images in the future. Keep up the good (and instructive) work.
Thank you! We have been planning to get a cover for the plates but we’ve been let down several times. Good idea to blur them for sure. Will keep this in mind
Garages are just rip offs here by me down south its £120 a full service so they say all they do is a oil change and a i quote checklist if plugs filters etc but people think a full service is everything nit just a oil change
how the f is it so cheap in the UK? in ireland its at least €210 for a service (oil change) but they usually have little extras on top so normally ends up around €250 for little more than an oil change.

@@Sportage5603oil degradation is insignificant fresh oil is always going to have the best protection properties! Better to be safe than sorry as the old saying goes.
If you use an additive to the new oil, it is always ideal to subtract it from the stated oil volume but either way, it shouldn’t harm - that’s obviously just my opinion
@@themarvelousvlog Not sure that you as a roadside mechanic can say for certain that this is a 'high quality' oil. From my own research (I am no expert either), so long as the oil is fully certified to the manufacturers spec and is the correct viscosity, then the oil is good to use. I have read and watched many extensive engine oil reviews from both Europe and the US and engine longevity for oil is basically down to service intervals based on environment and driving habits. There are lots of myths about 2k oil changes in the US, but these were for older engines from the 50's to the 70's that needed these intervals and the oil was far inferior to the oils we have today. There are other minor variables like using better quality oil filters and how soon to change the oil on a new car after the run in period due to more metal loss. There are some additional properties of high end oils that can benefit high performance engines, but for the majority of us, it's a waste of money.
Here’s their website: www.launchtech.co.uk This is the only genuine website out there for Launch UK. If you buy Launch products from Amazon/eBay etc… 100% of the time, you’ll find that a lot of the features will not work here in the UK/Europe
Comma is budget oil 💯. Wouldn't put anything less than Mobil, Shell or Castrol in my BMW. Great video though guys and looks like a great new place you have there. Enjoy👍
It is BMW ll-04 approved so its probably fine. I see many people use MANNOL too for their BMW's especially old ones as i think its ll-01 approved and cheap.
@@Supraifyification fair enough, I know what you mean but personally I choose to spend a little more as I think it is the best thing you can do for your engine 👍
@@RC-cs3me yeah i use Castrol as that is what BMW used on the E46's and MANN filter as its what they used on E46's but as long as it meets the specifications as by manufactuerers its fine. Mostly its just marketing i assume - castrol most likely paid BMW a lot to put their oil in their cars and put their logo on stickers in the engine bay.
I use Mannol LL04 on my 2010 BMW 330D. Costs me about £50 for 20 litre cannisters from ebay. I change the oil (and oil filter) every 8,000 miles. It's a job that's quicker and easier than changing the headlamp bulbs on this car.
@@lint8391 that's a cost effective and safe way of looking after your engine 👍 I think it is when people use cheaper oil AND leaves it in there forever. My one is a year 2000 E46 320d and being lowered it's easier to change a headlight bulb,lol. Mainly used Mobil 1 over it's life and had over 20 years. Still sweet and only done 170k. Keep up those oil changes and your 330d should go on and on 🤞
I agree, it's what I have done for decades now. I'll just add that using decent fuel, now E5, in the case of petrol helps. Higher quality fuel keeps the system cleaner.

replaced the brake fluid with a "good practice" because "as you know" attitude is just upselling a job.... come on brake fluid tester is less then a 10 quid.... probably would have saved this customer close to 100.......
Garages/ mechanics need to perform an honest job. If any accidents due to workshop negligence, then the person doing the repairs will be held responsible
By adding on the last part that chemical in the fuel tank , that will go back to the engine, I prefer how you done the first time when you drain the whole old oil .. because now you picked up all debris from the bottom of the fuel tank , back to engine again, I say you should leave it as it is with fuel tanks specially that might eat the whole tank and make a pinholes…. If you want clean tank , use BP garage fuel or Shell , if you go for Jet fuel , any supermarket fuel or any other company, your engine will fall apart quickly … because that fuel is not filtered properly and has less additives to keep it nice and clean and prolong your engine life .
Yes mate Mannol is cheap but it's fine. The key is do the oil changes regular. Ignore the comments about Russian Oil. It's German oil Low Saps C3 dexos2 and never had a issue with it. I will be changing my Oil next month with Mannol Fully synthetic.
Last car had was Lexus is250 on 2009 had for 8 yrs didn't change brake fluid and had no problems . First thing change air filter cabin filter. Recently bought vw golf from vw dealer and didn't even change air or cabin filter as both were quite dirty. My tx4 oil air oil change every 9k and fuel filter once a yr
The motor oil geek channel tested lots of "additives" and found out they all cause more wear, they mess up the oil. NONE of them work. Engine flush is good as it makes carbon deposits into a liquid and drain out with the old oil, but then just fill up with oil, no extra additives.

Don't forget to renew your brake fluid every 2 years preferably.

This country has the best fuel so no need to change fuel filter every 6 months geez
replaced the brake fluid with a "good practice" because "as you know" attitude is just upselling a job.... come on brake fluid tester is less then a 10 quid.... probably would have saved this customer close to 100.......
How can I contact you guys for full service aswell?
Please send us a message on WhatsApp. Our details will be in the description. Thank you!

Garages/ mechanics need to perform an honest job. If any accidents due to workshop negligence, then the person doing the repairs will be held responsible
By adding on the last part that chemical in the fuel tank , that will go back to the engine, I prefer how you done the first time when you drain the whole old oil .. because now you picked up all debris from the bottom of the fuel tank , back to engine again, I say you should leave it as it is with fuel tanks specially that might eat the whole tank and make a pinholes…. If you want clean tank , use BP garage fuel or Shell , if you go for Jet fuel , any supermarket fuel or any other company, your engine will fall apart quickly … because that fuel is not filtered properly and has less additives to keep it nice and clean and prolong your engine life .

Hi guys Mannol oil any good
No terrible Russian oil
I use mannol in my Subaru rally car 10/60
Yes mate Mannol is cheap but it's fine. The key is do the oil changes regular. Ignore the comments about Russian Oil. It's German oil Low Saps C3 dexos2 and never had a issue with it. I will be changing my Oil next month with Mannol Fully synthetic.
I am running 6 month with mannol C3 so far going strong

Last car had was Lexus is250 on 2009 had for 8 yrs didn't change brake fluid and had no problems . First thing change air filter cabin filter. Recently bought vw golf from vw dealer and didn't even change air or cabin filter as both were quite dirty. My tx4 oil air oil change every 9k and fuel filter once a yr
The motor oil geek channel tested lots of "additives" and found out they all cause more wear, they mess up the oil. NONE of them work. Engine flush is good as it makes carbon deposits into a liquid and drain out with the old oil, but then just fill up with oil, no extra additives.
