Rolls Royce parts guide.
1. Find the bmw part
2. Multiply by 2
3. Add a zero
LoL good one
LMAO
My dad was a mechanic at a GM dealership back in the 60's and 70's, and when ordering parts at the parts counter, often the same part (such as a spark plug, with the exact same part#) for a basic Chevy would be cheaper than if it were ordered under a Corvette work order.
What?
Like FIAT and Ferrari parts
It’s very satisfying to see that my $200 bmw 3 series lease has the same chime as a car more expensive then most peoples houses
More expensive new maybe. Not buying a house for $80k around my area!
lol in my areas you can get a house for 50k$ in the city, in some villages few hours from city houses go by 10-20k$ :D so 80k can buy a huge house
Where do you live?
The newer RR’s have a slightly different chime than BMWs. It’s the same gong like sound but it’s more of a harp sound. It’s legit the best door chime I’ve ever heard and I’m going to code it into my 335i.
How much does Rolls-Royce charge for the part? The same USD25 as BMW or a little bit more?
It's nice you make these videos to help poor people keep their rolls on the road!
I have a rolls Royce... I meant rust everyone else calls it a Benz
Envious?
LOL
Those window regulators look like they cost $10 to make. Lots of cheap plastic crap to break(like yours did). Absolutely insane that they have the gall to charge $1300 for that part. For that price all those plastic gears/slides should be metal and chrome plated.
metal wheels would be loud, they are plastic for a reason, but charging $1000 for rebuild is also insane. This is something wizard could do in 2 hours.
They are most likely made up of BMW bits anyway, that's why they can get the bits to fix them in the first place, then charge the 1000% Rolls Royce mark up.
Yeah. Look like the ones from a 7 series an they are only 167quid in the UK. I know cos I did a new one the other month.
Do you know anything about the previous owner , it looks like he really abused this car...what do you have to do to make modern electric windows fail in that short a period - they should normally be good for over 20 years
Bose de-Nage no they are junk. Water gets in the wire an rusts it thro. Not enough grease on at factory, I've had 2 fail on the back but both front still fine on same year car. Oh an when it snaps motor runs it up inside an busts casing open so it's totally fucked.
Have you tried talking to a machine shop? You could potentially have the inside of the wheels machined so they fit normal tires for much less than $4000
Damnit, I just wrote the same comment before I read yours...
Provided the wheel diameter is a standard size it looks doable to me. How's Linux?
Linus Torvalds He stated before that the wheels where in bad shape missing most of the chrome pieces which would most likely be impossible to find compared to a set of newer wheels
I was thinking about that. Just put the wheels on a lathe and make a custom set :-)
Linus, what are your thoughts on Nvidia?
I'm glad this one worked out. I think giant floaty sedans are called land yachts because they adhere to the BOAT rule:
Bust
Out
Another
Thousand
artistwithouttalent named my c28' Bayliner Mo Money...
artistwithouttalent LOLs I have a giant. Cartier L (extended wheelbase) Lincoln Town Car and I’ve spent a total of $600 since I got it. Just oil changes and a couple air filters. It’s 18.5 feet long, drives like silk, and gets great gas mileage for a V8. It’s practically bulletproof mechanically.
The best days of yacht ownership are the day you buy it , and the day you sell it.
LMAO
artistwithouttalent underrated comment
Great video, I'm so glad you've had a good day with it, you need the good luck, I used to have to fix manual window winders with mountain bike brake cables and Meccano back on a now very rare Hyundai I had years ago. Look forward to the next video, and the next AND the next, you're gonna be a while getting this one right. All the best from the UK.
The best series in this channel! Please continue updating, I can't wait for a new episode.
Already clicked ads a few times to show my support!
This car is the best investment ever!! so proud of you hoovie
Was it so cheap as it is for his show and do er upper. However can buy better RR for less than $95,000. So $80,000 + + + + is about channel revenue.
Gh Google After the inevitable loss in selling the car, plus paying for the new wheels/tires and interest on the loan he took out to buy the car, there's no way he's making that all back with channel revenue. Hello, bankruptcy court!
Michael Ball Thankfully he can claim it as business expenses.
Michael Ball lol hoovie is an educated man. HIGHLY doubt he doesn't have the funds for his projects
Investment - ? That vessel is destined to sink like the Titanic ! Fun to screw around with if you are a gear head . It's fun to open up things and resolve , then realize the internal workings and build quality are in many cases no different or better than your average car. True British junk at it's finest !!
The hood is quite appealing. The wrap looked like grey poopon.
more like bird poopon
You must have colorblindness sir lol, blue, red white and yellow/gold grey Poupon bottle. The hood was brushed metal looking vinyl on a car line noted for their finish, which was covered up partially.
LOL!!
Lewis Beshers Poopen?
or they pooped grey on
Very nice video. Looking forward to the wheels and tires you pick. Loving the series on this car. Keep up the good work.
Looks so much better without the wrap!! Much love from the UK 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Slow down Hoovie, this would have been 8-9 Tavarish videos worth of progress.
Plus 3 short updates and a live stream.
That's why I don't watch Tavarish's videos, waaaaay too much talking without actually saying anything. I have other things to do with my time :-p
Hahahahaha
Tavarish streches his content to the max, combined with the most idiotic click bait titles and thumbnails. Cant stand it, applies to an adience I cant and dont want to be associated with.
Tavarish is boring
Take the wheels to a wheel expert and hear if they can turn them on their wheel lathe to make them work on normal tires before you order new wheels
If that doesn't work I'd look for salvaged wheels before going in 4k on new ones.
Automotion, in Dunedin New Zealand. That's the sort of stuff they can do. You get a lot of FedEx shipping for $4000!
@@Maximusrex4575 why wont it work?. mate machinists can work miracle's.
That was the BEST intro ever! The best one yet! AND, I PREDICT, THAT NONE OF THE FUTURE EPISODES WILL EVER EVEN GET CLOSE TO AS GOOD AS THIS OOOONNNNNEEEE!!!
For car people, this is great entertainment and simply enjoy these videos. Thx again and love all the updates.
Love how a mechanic out in the bumble-eff midwest knows all this stuff yet I live in a major city in Florida and in 25 years have not found one who really knows a damn thing about any car for the most part. The usual answer I get to issues "It all needs to be replaced". Replace this replace that and eventually, they get lucky. My checkbook usually drained of course by the time this happens.
Most "mechanics" today are part changers. Old school mechanics are becoming hard to find. I tried to have my local Goodyear diagnose a rough start/stall under load issue in my '93 FZJ80. No shop wanted to touch it because it's pre obd-II.
It looks like the wizard mechanic is starting get get specialized in repairing all kinds of high end makes like RR and Ferrari's etc. I keep seeing some nice cars in the background. Surely they are not all of Hoovies. I thin in one of the videos there was another RR in the background when working on this purple beast.
Mechanics still know how to repair cars in your area. They just don’t want to... They get a whole lot more money by replacing.
@@marcusdamberger many of them are Hoovie's. He has a TV series in the works, and he stated in a previous video that he's acquired 20+ vehicles for the show.
John, too many of these guys are like copier repair men, just keep replacing parts until it works correctly. 'Wizard' like many good and reputable mechanics understands how and why cars/trucks/etc work the way they do. They consult technical manuals as well as the knowledge base of enthusiasts and mechanics to gain understanding. I wish I had a wizard too, my guy was younger brother of a friend of my Dad. Owners of his shop space would not renew his lease and turned it into a garage for their plows and crap. He retired.
Why not keep the tires until they were worn out?
Also new RR's have different chimes. Well, at least you can code BMW's to make those chimes as well as Mini chimes.
The were pretty rotten old tires, and felt a little out of balance from the car sitting for sale for over a year.
Tyres on a heavy car like that will flat-spot very quickly, that's why you have the chauffeur take it for a drive round the block every week.
You could just put aftermarket rims on it, then you can use whatever tire that you want to, ex: www.carid.com/2005-rolls-royce-phantom-wheels/?filter=1&sorter=price-low-to-high or www.autoanything.com/wheels-rims/10A56004A1.aspx
Barack Smith any aftermarket wheel would look terrible
Put a 90's Kia chime on it.
She looks way better in her natural state. All that wrap was killing the look.
That was the most satisfying intro I have seen in a while
PLEASE KEEP IT!!!
The Roller looks a lot better without the wrap on the bonnet and grill. Great vid as usual.
mark allen agreed - huge improvement
all it did is made it look older, I wouldn't call this an improvement
Cactus Sensai Doug why are you so rude? Does it make you feel better?
TheMainCore Sorry deleted the posts, that had nothing to do with you anyways. Does it make you feel good to call people out. In some sort of unsolicited defense. Was just joking, good lord sir
Buying these types of cars second-hand post-depreciation but with low-miles is the way to go. One case was a 1989 Maserati Spyder we picked up in 1994 with only 7K miles. It was my wife's daily and we secured our daughter's car seat to the metal support bar running in back of the rear back-support, with her feet then resting in between the two front seats. Yes, dropping her at daycare people assumed you had it going on.
I only recently discovered your channel after Doug De Muro shared it. Absolutely fantastic. Loving the Rolls Royce! Can’t wait to see what’s next and look back on what i’ve missed.
Its a small point, but the 1980's Hold Music that you use for your stinger tracks -- NEVER LOSE THIS!!!! TH-cam musical tracks have gotten so horribly generic lately, and this one is just awesome and makes your channel stand out as original.
Make sure to get some whitewalls for the RR! We wanna see REAL class!!!
Nathan Kim that’s so tacky
Popop Uhihih who cares it’s what he likes
Vogue Tyres. They invented the white side wall. I remember a lot of luxury cars used to have them, nice looking with gold stripe.
That has about as much class as rhinestones
Vogue invented the wildly overpriced random level of quality control custom built tire.
Rewrap the hood with another wrap but leave the grill alone. The brushed steel look on the hood is what makes it look a lot newer. They have better wraps than what was on there because the one that was there seemed kind of plastic looking. Sorry about the wheels
Rolls Royce in known for this www.rolls-roycemotorcars.com/en-US/bespoke/colour-without-compromise.html The wrap doesn't make it look more modern it makes it look messed with and buyers looking at what else you rigged. If this was a Bmw, Lexus, Cadillac most anything but a Rolls or Bentley a hood wrap might work. it's the fine touches like you're paying for. That's why they farm out the drive train and don't bother in house anymore that isn't what really sets them apart.
That run flat ring should cut off, it's just forced onto the wheel like a tyre is- th-cam.com/video/rFhwCRkgynQ/w-d-xo.html It all hinges on whether the bead seat is a different shape to the one for a normal tyre and whether the wheel can be machined to 'correct' the bead seat.
The wrap made the car look cheap imo
your mechanic friend is such a sweetheart
Congratulations on your new Rolls Royce and having such a wonderful mechanic to help make your new purchase more fun reasonably!
that almost 30 year old SL is still a timeless piece
Anyone else letting the ads play all the way through just to help out this broke bastard?
Nicholls & Sense Yep the ruski Bentley legally killed his wallet.
Yes
Nicholls & Sense I'd never thought about that until you said it 😂.
I am. Yes. Really. I might even buy a shirt to support Hoovies.
Nicholls & Sense yup
Can't wait for the next update. So happy you're doing justice to the car, I'd die for one of these
The Roller is the most interesting purchase yet and this content is fantastic. NO ONE is doing this. Every other Rolls Royce video you see online is just your typical review of the newest model. I was eagerly waiting until you finally bought a Phantom and Hoovie, you did not disappoint! Can't wait to see Barney with his new shoes!
Just get some 24" Gold Plated Spinners with purple accents, Hoovie!!!
Have you tried contacting Michelin to know if they have a solution for your tires?
Thanks Hoovie for doing the auto loving world a favor and buying this Roller. In Australia these things cost about $1m new. So even seeing your “expensive” parts prices it makes for great vicarious viewing. Keep it up ps I never make comments. Your auto adventures have encouraged me.
I'm a new subscriber. Man I love this channel so far. I watch all of you'r old video and new one and so far i have a great time!
We're off to see the Wizard!
I’m really liking the Rolls Royce story, it’s really interesting! I really love the car! I mean, _it needs work_ but in the end it’ll be worth it!
Good luck man!
Love the new intro!
Looks good my man!
And look at that beauty.
She's just looking so amazing right now.
I don't know why, in my eyes, the purple goes so well with the car.
Nice job! Removing that wrap was a smart call, it's looking MUCH Better.. Can't wait to see it with the trim pieces back on, looking like a proper Rolls now!
doug is the type of guy that drinks one 2% alcohol beer and gets peess drunk
and maked fun in hoovies garage video
I say old boy, jolly good show. Chin chin and God save the Queen, Huzzah.
I do declare. Pip pip, cheerio, and all that sort of rot.
🧐
Looks so much better with that plastic wrap off and the chrome grill back. Great project!
I love this little series with the Rolls. Subscribed.
I'm so in love with this car has been my dream car since very young I watch every video with a like because of this vehicle great job great channel love the wizard!
Next video: My Ferrari burnt to the ground and I immediately sold it to a guy in Florida the next day.
Let me guess: He rebuilds cars on TH-cam, and looks like a young Pete Sampras?
Michael Ball Yes. He does.

Luna Deafenhine Oh shit. I know he said it wasn’t Parker’s fault but it seems like bad things happen to people’s cars when they let Parker borrow them. Haha.
so th-cam.com/video/IfsVTPth5yA/w-d-xo.html borrows it for a month, for FREE, and burns it to the ground, niiice
Replaced my S2000's window regulator yesterday, funny how similar it looks to yours
Been here since 30k subs. Little insane the growth. Well deserved
Enjoyed seeing the work this time. Wiz needs his own channel just to cover the Hoovie Fleet work.
what even was that intro music my guy
there you go: th-cam.com/video/T-VEMVAB1hc/w-d-xo.html also enjoy the greatest car commercial while youre there
Ristreeper song is she moves from karaja
I thought wizard dancing to rave music was funny.
Hoovies Garage "dancing"
Always thought it was a play on the 1980's motorweek theme.
Hoovie Quote of the Day:
“You can kinda feel it when it goes in”
Yes, but does she??
I read this right as he said that
that's what she said!
Good call on the wrap removal. Looks much better with the single color and the chrome.
This guy is so good in front of a camera. Love the channel.
Well, for a 80k Rolls, this is not that bad.
Nobody knows you paid 80 grand. All they see is some guy who's rich enough to drive a Rolls.
Let's be honest, you don't buy a Rolls Royce for it's comfort. You buy it cuz it's a head turner.
soon to be 90k
+Just _Still_ worth it.
Kronos
Nobody, except >300k viewers 😂
+Eduard Like they're ever gonna see him IRL.
You should buy the cheapest Honda Civic in America next
it'd be like a $1 purchase
i bet you could find one where they would pay you to take it
They’d have to pay him
richie renaud -39$
He'd still lose money on it.
This is so cool! Was waiting for a next video on the Rolls Royce (reason I subbed).
Can't wait to see the final result.
I'm loving this new intro. Man I remember when you were at only 25k subscribers!

He needs that picture on his facebook profile.
Andrew Norris which picture?
i dont understand why ye didnt use a hair dryer to take off the wrap the windows regs are 7 series ( everybody knows that this side of the world) bmw coils are 50 quid plus vat for a 1 series nankhang do tyres for these wheels as does continental , hankook
Gangster! Your channel is such an inspiration for all of us small channels!
Hoovie keeps the hoopties on the road..addicted to your vids
The grill looks waaaaaaaaay better!!
Those Michelin run flat system was a pain when we had them in my family’s Honda Odyssey. The tires did not last long, balancing them was near impossible (my dad is a mechanic), the cost of the tires were crazy (if I remember right about $400 each at the time), and (if I remember right also) you needed to replace the inner plastic ring after some tire changes. We ended up just replacing the wheels and tires with the lower trim Odyssey wheels and tires that used normal tires. We put in 250k miles on it until it was rear ended by a u-Haul truck. That generation Odyssey had a lot of problems for some reason the tires, engine mounts ($500 each) only lasting 50-75k, and ECU glitches
We did ask the dealership about the pain of the Michelin run flat system, they recommended to replace the car.....and so we did just that, with another car with the Michelin PAX system. Best investment we've made, just replace the car every time the tires are worn. ;-)
it looks soo much better without the wrap,. good job!
I'm loving these updates on this Rolls-Royce thank you Boobie 👍👍🙏🏼🙏🏼
The tires look very usable, good tread, so why the need to replace now???!!
Kristen Sorensen tire pressure fault. And you cannot remove them unless you remove the tire from the rim. And for that you need a special machine
He also said in another comment that they were pretty old, bordering on dry-rotty, and had flat spots from sitting so long for sale.
If you look at them on the other videos he posted about this car you can see that they were completely dry-rotten. The sidewalls looked like they were going to explode.
Hoovie, please dont make me watch a vehicle virgins video to find out what happened to your 355
It caught fire
That hood, a wrap, the glue, tearing out the door panel, carving into the tires, oh my! The engineers and builders at Rolls Royce must be crying in their teacups and rolling their eyes!!
We removed run flats with a sawzall at my shop, normal tires mounted right up. Wizard's shop is awesome.
Please bring the old intro music back. The new Intro style is cool but the old music was so catchy
Gr4ndM there was old intro music in the last vid
Do doo da do da doo do da dooo
We need a video on the F355. That really sucks man
New England Exotics WHAT HAPPENED?
Ali Abdallah it caught on fire
Ali Abdallah caught on fire at Vehicle virgins house where it was being stored
That dude has really bad karma.
Hoovie does have bad luck, and I get the sense unlike some TH-camrs it's actually genuine, of course he does document it for everyone's schadenfreude.
I was certified a long time ago to change and replace PAX system tires/rings. I loved doing them, they took a crap ton of time to work on but they were fun.
I really want to see this RR come back to its Glory, Good luck man!
Poor Ferrari! Rip hope the insurance makes everything right for you. And hope Freddy gets a supercharged Ferrari to contrast his twin turbo lambo! Both on fire!
dominick253 he already bought it😂
Man, I just love that you are saving the car.
So nice and satisfying! Congrats buddy!
This informative video is so helpful. U show that even a 300k car needs TLC , but the cosmetic is over the top.
Did you fix the back seat headliner yet?
The fix on the rims is to cut out the plastic run flat part, after that a regular tire can be mounted. The chrome sticks on the rim can be made from aluminum and painted chrome then JB Weld epoxied in place (chrome paint all stick pieces to make sure they match). The window regulator can be rebuilt in-house if you have a lathe and some aluminum to make new wheel guides if need be; should be about a days work. I have a shop and do weird thing like this all the time. Love to help you out but I’m in Ontario. Best of luck.
Kim Chi .....RR and BMW and all auto manufacturers use adhesives which includes epoxies and silicones of all types to assemble there vehicles. Theses markers were epoxy in place originally I’m sure. That’s why some of them fell off in the first place.
Sorry Paul, but that isn't true... The PAX Wheels are unique in the fact that the inner and outer beads are different diameters.. No conventional tire can be mounted on those rims.. The O.E tire size is 265-790R540A. Outer bead is 790mm, inner bead is 540mm, section width of tread is 265mm.
yes, sorry about that. The rim problem cheap fix is to buy aftermarket rims that fit, you wont have the RR hubcap spinner but you'll save over 10K.
That's what I would do.
I imagine not having OEM wheels with the RR spinners absolutely tanks the resale of one of these, even taking into account how little (relatively) he paid for it
Can't wait to see how it will look with the new wheels.
I remember when I was looking for my wife a Honda Odyssey I avoided the ones with those wheels and tires. Crazy setup.
That tire and rim situation is so crazy, 🤦♂️you can’t get the tires 😳. So basically even the original owner probably knew that they had to buy new rims and tires eventually 😶. Well I guess it will look better than ever with the newer style on it 😀
All hail the wizard!!
That intro music though :O oh yeah, bring back the 90's influenced from 80's ! Thats the unicorn right there!
Great work Hoovie & Wizzard, Barney is looking great..... to bad about those run flats, hopefully the new wheels have those cool spinner caps :D
Hey, pull up a seat...lets have a conversation about the intro music.
Welcome To The Madness song is she moves from karaja
I think it fits him it screams 80s
He had to much fun with that hubcap
I must say wizard shop is spotless and organized, 95% of the shops I’ve been to in USA 🇺🇸 are disorganized, has oil stains plus grease and junk all over the floor ., and damn wizard your garage looks like a airplane hanger 👍🏻 . But west coast customs in the 🇺🇸 USA holds the championship belt on the cleanest and gorgeous looking auto shop
Love watching about this Rolls, keep up the good work looks much better already 👍
Next video: *_MY CHEAP FERRARI BURNED_* Rip F355 though
hey man could u give me some source to that information i cant find it anywere :/

Best hoovie intro so far
It shows that even a RR does not cost an arm aND a leg to run if ur willing to do the work ! Good job hoovie
Is that your daughters college fund?
No, the guy has arranged $75k loan for this and sold a couple of his other cars. So he had maybe about $100K for this project -- $80K spent on the car, and by now soon $10K for the fixes, with more to follow.
if he needs money, he could easily sell all the cars and get the money
You can buy a Rolls Royce.... But can't buy the car wizard a mic?
J F outside of the cars themselves and repairs, the production costs of this channel are so incredibly low
(And that’s a good thing in many respects)
