0:00 Intro
0:04 Customer States "no brake pedal"
0:11 Ended up being a blown head gasket
0:26 Must be a new type of Bluetooth differential
0:34 Bit late for these to be turned bud
0:46 How could they not mention the car having a noise or feeling off to the mechanics blows my mind
1:00 Customer states, there was a thumping noise while driving
1:13 Customer States "After I drove over a curb, I am hearing a clunking noise"
1:29 Might be better off just buying a new car instead of all this work that needed to be done
2:03 The bus driver didn't even mention anything feeling off to the mechanics when they dropped it off
2:20 Absolutely insane the previous shop missed this
2:27 I have no idea what this is unless it's an alarm going off
2:36 All I can assume is that they hit some weird object on the road
2:44 Apparently quite a common issue on this model of car and it just needs some seals replaced
2:58 Let us know what this could be in the comments below
3:37 Yeah oil treatment is not supposed to be ran for long at all, chances are they'll need another one now
3:55 M4 AEM intake leaking from support hole
4:04 Outro

I'm surprised some of these vehicles don't collapse in on themselves when put up on a lift.
That's what I was thinking , I wouldn't be standing under them!!!!
Tires are a bit worn, but the underbody tree branch looks nice and fresh.
I never trust junkyard engines. Everything gets a full rebuild. Sometimes you get happy surprises.... Sometimes not so happy ones. But at least you know
Bought a 5.3 at the diy for my Camaro to replace the tired ls1, paid 230 bucks after taxes(half price black friday) amd did the same teardown to find a texas speed cam, trunion upgraded rockers, amd mahle forged pistons. I understand how that Silverado ended up crashed. Just did bearings and gaskets, moved all the camaro specific stuff over, and have been driving it for a month no issues. Did have to retune it but that's not really an issue.
Some of us can't afford to rebuild. That's why we buy used engines.
@@DeadInsideButStillSmiling if i can afford it 85% can afford it. Im not some boomer sitting on a stack of union cash.
Eh, a junkyard 4.3 is always a safe bet
Yeah, they're all but bullet-proof. I've had a customer *trying* to wreck one so they can justify putting an LS in their Astro Van. They've been trying for three years.

Customer states: Technician does not understand how to hold his damn phone.
2:28 that happens when you drive over a set of spikes that prevent cars from going into a parking garage. You have one way in and the other way is out only. Drive the wrong way into a directional entrance and presto the spikes will peel your tire back. He must have been at an angle since he only peeled a single tire.
You know that honking Lincoln? That used to be a problem with ST24/200 Ford engines and we called it "moosing". It went away with a throttle blip. Not sure if this is the same problem but we fixed it with modified inlet tubes from Ford, or replacing the IACV pipe with one that didn't cause resonance.
That's why the radio was put into cars to drown out the loud noises underneath 😉
I had a friend contact my asking why he has a clicking that gets intense when he turns left but not when he turns right. I told him it’s probably a broken CV joint and sent him a link to a new one because he wanted to know price. He told me that it’s not that and he kept driving thinking that it would go away. Well he had this intense whirring and grinding and took it to get serviced. There was practically no wheel bearing and the CV shaft was destroyed. He still to this day refuses that the CV shaft was the original problem
1:00 That's the first time I have ever actually laughed out loud to one of these. Well played, sir. Well played.
Really, how is your average customer meant to know the heat shield has fallen down.
These guys should be happy they get such gravy jobs rather than mocking them.
Would their mothers be able to diagnose that?
Well the average customer could try just looking under the car...
@@webguy943thank you well said well said . Yea they might be gravy job but those 5-10 mins I could use to get that heat shield down could be used instead for finding a bigger people on another car
@@webguy943 And if they saw it, the average customer might not know if/how important it is, and still want a shop to look at it.
2:28 the car wanted to learn the bagpipe
Went to stop at the gas station last night. Pulled in while a 90's Chevy pickup was side-on to my lights. First thing I noticed was the cab and bed were getting quite cozy at the top, yet avoiding each other down below.
You could literally see the frame rot below this in the headlights.
How does one not realize just how dangerous their vehicle has become when it is this freaking obvious?
Once a tractor trailer came in for a alignment and looked at the drive axle and the first drive axle was only being held in by the air bags and drive line
People buy cars but can't afford them. And then they drive them until they fall apart.
I've been that "drove over a curb" guy. I took a corner too tight and banged my rear tire on the curb, popping it. I DID hear the flapping sound, but that it was the car in front of me and was trying to signal them that something was wrong with THEIR vehicle.
Was only after I'd turned off onto the freeway that I realized it was ME. A few nerve-wracking moments later I pulled into a gas station and was relieved to discover it was just a flat tire. Popped on the spare (a proper, full tire) and continued on my trip.
Customer States (in a robotic, vowel-accentuated voice): "I drove over AY curb and now there's AY clunking noise.."
i would almost guess that tire was parked up against a curb or something for some time to get that straight tear
Or it ran into one of those security ramps.
more than likely it was getting towed behind an RV or something and someone forget to turn off the parking brake.
When buy from a salvage yard, you may know what you bought however you'll never know what you got. Salvage yards are like box of chocolates? 😂
1:50 I would never stand under a vehicle in that condition.
Sometimes cars are at the junkyard because of engine issues.
@3:00 it's the idle air control, had an Explorer that made the same noise.
Did that curb scream out in pain as you drove over it?
!
so when I look at whatever I was looking at with the bus is that how people that aren't mechanically inclined feel when they watch any of these videos?
Hah I swapped a junkyard motor in for a friend and just assumed it had no oil in it, so I added 4L into it. Smokeshow on the highway. The only time in my life that I dumped motor oil straight onto the ground (about 2-3 L of it) but I did not damage the engine.
For the vehicle inspections, sometimes you have to "know a guy"! Ha. But after watching South Main Auto videos, Eric O. says other shops can't report violations, so the system is protected against shops who just slap a sticker on and take money
I brought a vehicle in to be inspected, swear the guy tore the wiper blade so it would fail, he's a dick
Yes, that's one reason I don't like inspections. I know back in the day when Indiana had them my grandma was failed due to bad brakes, but my grandpa had just replaced them. Shop was just preying on her thinking she didn't know better. Arguments could be made for and against them!@@DanielJensen-lp1jp
Isn’t there a test like the British MOT ???
Here, you can not have a safety inspection at any garage. It must be a by the country approved garage with the emaille shield RDW ( Rijksdienst voor het Wegverkeer) on the ourside wall. It will be checked incognito by an inspector and when they cheat, they loose points. The garage has ten points. Rijk is the same as the German Reich. Dienst means service, voor means for ( same pronounciation) het means the (or it), wegverkeer means roadtraffic. Regards and a Merry Christmas from the Netherlands.
3:20 .... Is the entire grill covered in cardboard?
Just turn up the radio! It'll be alright!
0:40 cakram !!!!
Can always count on a lie
2:45 i have this problem too and dont know how to fix it.😢
Does your car have a sun roof. If yes the drains for it are either cloged or have broken due to age. If no im not shure what it could be maybe the windshield or a crack between the panels on the roof.
Whenever I see a car broke down on the side of the road, I say "Should have bought a Toyota." Because 99.9% of the time it's not a Toyota. The other 0.01% it's an old Toyota or a Toyota with a flat tire.
So what were the mystery noises?
Yeah at 2:30 is what I want to know video shakes
Had a co-worker, who said his wife keeps driving over the curb whenever she makes a right turn, so now he has to repair the rear axle on her car. Heard from Scotty Kilmer channel, that if you run over curbs, potholes, etc. it could damage your bearings. Hence when I drive, I tried to find a smooth surface for all my 4 tires. I have never these problems like these idiots.
Any sudden sharp shock is bad.
If this is a car mechanic channel, why do you have a mountain bike chaining in your logo?
I learn from these videos. Mostly to think twice about what fluids I put in what areas. But also, what might be the issue if I feel what some of the customers feel or hear when they bring in a car. But I find it awful that any mechanics think that any of the customers misfortune, whether incidental or from their own poor decisions is funny or something to laugh about. Joking to a point is okay, but laughing?
I am so glad that we have the TÜV in Germany. Cars like these rustbuckets would never leave the shop again. The TÜV has the right to immobilize a vehicle on site. TÜV means: Technical Inspection Association
A friend of mine was in the US Army stationed there in the 1980's. At a border checkpoint they impounded it... car was so rusted.
As much as it may surprise you, mechanical failures are not that big a deal as far as wrecks go. It's usually driver error that causes issues. I'd rather have good drivers than clean vehicles. Sadly, we have neither.
This car owner should not be driving never.....
ah. I go back to the better channel. the clips here aren't that good
Kerb not curb, noun not verb.
They have the same meaning.
depends which country you're from on how it is spelt.
@@HesmiyuMC even "spelt" is spelled differently in different countries :)
In my country it is stoeprand (pronounced as stooprand) 😊. Merry Christmas
kerb /kûrb/
noun
An irregular occasional spelling of curb, v., 4, and n., 3.
There are some BORING clips in here... dude!
Uhggg, The word is ENGINE,,,, Motor references an electric device that rotates in order to do work, Engine is references cylinder(s) with a reciprocating mechanism to compress air/fuel to be ignited for a power (in most cases). I hear the word motor use every where but I think mechanics should know and understand the difference between the two.
Didn't realise Ford MOTOR company, or General MOTORS made electric cars all these years...
We in the Netherlands use motor also. Also for a motor(bike) and for an electric motor(!). Merry Christmas.
I had people who SHOULD k now better to use the exact words, use the wrong one (like calling a nut a bolt), and then yelling at me for not getting what they meant... sorry, pay me more and I shall pick your sorry brain; until then, talk clearly to me.
My cuestion is do you not understand what is being said even if the wrong word is used. What diference does it make if bouth sides know what is being talked about.
