I have a 2004 civic owned it for 16 years!! Almost 300,000 miles! It has never left me on the side of the road! I also have a 2019 accord touring 2.0. And a few other cars. Thanks for the great content Randy!!
In the case of the 4.2 Quattro Audi all you have to do is just release the tab to drop down the rear seat and crawl in and pull the latch of the emergency trunk release 👍🏻
Man you gotta get that 7 series it's absolutely gorgeous! I bet they have the key in the office. Look at that stitching in the leather though, get it cleaned up and bolt the new parts, I bet that thing will run like a brand new car!
id say someone stole the key so they can get it cheap, if they kept the key in the office the zip tie wouldnt be there, it really annoys me when people do that.
I bought a 2006 a8L flood car and it wasn't nearly as bad as that one. Needed seat module and a few others. Ended up replacing entire motor abs module 1 shock, tensioners, and a few other things. No jump point on the a8 of that year we go in the truck thru the hole/ access port in the rear seat cup holder then use a broom to hit the emergency unlock switch. Also if you put 12v to the dashboard fuse in the door it will get the key out the ignition. No paperclip some don't work properly. Hope this information helps the next guy.
Buick Riviera is an awesome find in my eyes, You mentioned you can not find any parts for it ..... This makes this vehicle a gold mine when parting out. Im sure given the time frame its been sitting and not selling , it will go for very cheap !
that frontier is such an easy fix, takes time but it can be straightened out. Changing the frame is much more complicated unless it comes out in nice sections.
Me and my friend are doing coopart car things for 4 years. Bid, win, fix, sell is my car world for past years haha Flood cars in UK are cat B listed. Cat B here is for breakers, for parts only. And you need special licence to bid on flood cars. Audi has, boost pack points. They are located under bonnet. If airbags are deployed then you need to get to the battery location. There is a big fuse, in the + battery terminal. Two 13mm nuts and it is square shape. Take it apart, join a fuse and car will start without any further damage. BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes etc has same style system and so on
the 1rt bimmer looks like just needs a new rear bumper but i would take a closer look under those heat shields in the rear they looked way to clean, i bet they're maybe some damage hiding there
get a jumper box or jumper cables and connect Positive to a smaller phillips screwdriver and negative on other scredriver and touch your cigarette lighter output. It worked for me. Ignition came on and key came out. Just don't short it.
Well yeah if you own a car , when the key is in position one before the car cranks over that light is always on then once your car starts and does a check it will go out if all is ok...
Again that is normal function of the obd2 system. It illuminates the light in key position one then when you turn the key it checks all monitors which monitor each system and if any fault is detected it will stay illuminated but it goes out like any other car.
@The_First_Resort No, you don't get it; Car manufacturers all have different check engine lights; Some say "check engine", some say "service engine soon", some have a picture of an engine and some have a picture of an engine with the word "check" over or under it; What I'm trying to get across is that that particular car has a "service engine soon" light...
The Honda is a Donation (and when I write this sold on approval). Could be a good buy. Clean straight vehicle and title. Appreciate the walk around in these difficult times. Thank You Copart and Randy.
On the Audi convertible this is a common fault. These issues are usually caused by internal failure of the Multitronic (CVT) gearbox ECU that is bolted directly onto the gearbox itself. Not a difficult job and the ECUs can be rebuilt but are available.
Nice ridgeline, my brother in law has always wanted one, but could not afford to. I hope one day I can afford to find one at copart just like that one and buy it for him.
The Infiniti just needs a cleaning under the hood, and in the interior, maybe a headlight and I think that the gauges is just a fuse. Could also use some tires lol.
*the key removal in that Audi A8 is no big secret it's even in the owners manual about the pin hole in the key surround. not really hard to figure it out from there. you could also use a good stiff piece of wire to release it or even a zip tie .OOOH Ridgeline, you're entitled to your opinion just like everyone else, BUT IT IS A TRUCK! those who say it isn't are the same kind of people that try to say My Cadillac EXT an the Chevy Avalanche isn't a truck also.but they are! they are built on a Suburban frame which is also used in the long bed variety of the pickups therefore it's a truck! ridge line is a tad different but still the same idea. long and short of it though, you either love them or hate them. i happen to love the look of them.I'm not SUPER fond of that Army Green looking color, but i do love the truck still. and it's a clear title with normal wear. not surprised*
Randy addicted to your videos watched loads over the present lockdown. Strange the differences in driving culture.....of course with fuel prices at $7+ a gallon, try running a V8 in the UK. Been 10-12 years since I've had a petrol car. Great channel, great content,, subscribed. Love that 7 series.
Andy I have had Made a comment before about the Audi and how to open the trunk but I think you had never gotten in to it ,to open the trunk fold the rear seats down then you’ll see the release handle if you be able to slide your self in cargo area use light
Hey randy on the far left of that audi uder the right passenger side their is a jump point you pull up on the cowl panel and it pops out their should be one on the fuse box area .
Ditto. Plus the Honda 3.5 is fairly bullet proof. I always laughed at these too but they are very capable and the owners have about em. Randy this would be a great flip Oh and it's not a giant Accord. Its built on the Odyssey minivan platform. The newest ones are built on the Pilot platform and are a bit beefier
@@aaronturner1072 yeah, my only concern would be the timing belt (this is an interference engine) since there is no sticker under the hood. But the truck itself looks to be well cared for, so perhaps the future buyer shouldn't be worried for that.
Go with the ridgeline. I have a 07 civic with the r18 and owned it for two years. The only thing that really NEEDED replaced was my rear calipers and parking brake cables besides regular maintenance.
You really should take on that NIssan Frontier! 13k miles, I'd overlook the damage the bed caused to the cab as long as it didn't penetrate/puncture the cab but, Even if it did, weld it up/patch it somehow, THAT TRUCK IS WORTH IT/BRAND NEW! Could get an easy 200k more miles out of that drivetrain!!!!!! Keep in mind that a used bed would cost a lot less then $4k!
I miss my 05 Nissan Frontier. It had the 4 banger but it always had power when I wanted to. I had a custom exhaust on it and tuned the engine to add a little power. It was one of the only base model trucks my Nissan dealership that was custom.
I love that BMW 7 series. Slap a bumper cover on and sell that shit. I definitely think someone took the key to keep other flippers away. Those keys are expensive to replace, hopefully they have it safe in the office.
Great video. I noticed during the Audi ragtop walk-around you missed the gen 10 Honda and the older Acura literally right next to it, but you redeemed yourself with the gen 1 Ridgeline (2006 truck of the year at Motor Trend). Yeah, there's no bed to speak of, but there isn't in an El Camino or say a quad cab Colorado either. In fact after 25 years the Colorado's bed is... 1.2" longer. You'll get a Honda sedan or couple in there eventually, I have faith in you. Keep the videos coming.
With stuff the way it is in the world right now Randy you might want to wear disposable gloves. Touching these will bare hands is pretty sketchy not knowing who been in them. Keep dropping videos and everyone stay
Salute Randy 🌟 ! 2018 BMW has been doctored up LOL ! Beautiful ride though, shame it's sitting at COPART nothing against Copart LOL . Stay safe brother 👊😎
There’s a 91 riviera at a pick and pull in Kansas that’s the same colour and looks like a good front end, there might even be one around where you are at
Big body german sedans. There’s really not much wrong with the 7er, as for the A8, it looks like the air compressor was damaged during the accident, which makes it sit like a lowrider.
You ever think that it's one person taking all the keys so they can get it so cheep or stop other people from buying it because it's a great deal , that bothers me it's always a great buy
I have a 2004 civic owned it for 16 years!! Almost 300,000 miles! It has never left me on the side of the road! I also have a 2019 accord touring 2.0. And a few other cars. Thanks for the great content Randy!!
You're welcome
Drew Benefield 300k barely broken in. Is it a manual?
In the case of the 4.2 Quattro Audi all you have to do is just release the tab to drop down the rear seat and crawl in and pull the latch of the emergency trunk release 👍🏻
That's exactly what I was thinking
Andy Larralde That’s exactly what I was about to comment and then I saw this comment LoL
He seems to have changed the way he budgets his time spent in the videos.
It might only have a pass-through, on the A8, but it's worth a try!
He's too fat for that endeavor. Knew better than to embarrass himself more than he already was!
I think the check engine light came on for that Infiniti. It was service engine soon which is what Nissan used.
Yup. It's a Sevice Engine Soon light, top right of the speedo. Came on both times
At my local Copart, the expensive cars have to ask them for the keys
1:12 did u saw the latest 2020 7 Series ? these grills are tiny compared to those man !
The new kidneys are absolutely nasty
Man you gotta get that 7 series it's absolutely gorgeous! I bet they have the key in the office. Look at that stitching in the leather though, get it cleaned up and bolt the new parts, I bet that thing will run like a brand new car!
Yessss! It’s my birthday and I was waiting for this! Thank you Randy
Happy birthday!!!!! (and many more)
Happy birthday! 🎈
Happy birthday buddy!
Happy Birthday. Have a great day like everyday :) x10 lol
Happy birthday
Seeing these videos simply makes my day!
Regarding the 2018 BMW 740il: “$20,187.40” will be the price to fix that one!
10k means 15- 20k in repairs
Oh, dang that Colorado took it hard in the rear end
Monty The Troll Hunter 😂😂
id say someone stole the key so they can get it cheap, if they kept the key in the office the zip tie wouldnt be there, it really annoys me when people do that.
Randy there is a device you can get to plug in the 12v outlet an use your booster pack
I bought a 2006 a8L flood car and it wasn't nearly as bad as that one. Needed seat module and a few others. Ended up replacing entire motor abs module 1 shock, tensioners, and a few other things.

That BMW is great

I know someone with a 97 civic that has 400k n it's still goin strong. Like you said, it's a Honda.
Me and my friend are doing coopart car things for 4 years. Bid, win, fix, sell is my car world for past years haha

BMW, Audi, VW, Mercedes etc has same style system and so on
The Ridgeline looked great! But already know the outcome! Great walk thru!
FWIW those infinitis have a "Service Engine Soon" light instead of check engine and it's visible at 20:00 before you start it
I agree the Honda Ridgeline isn't a real truck. Yes it'll do some truck work. But still not a real truck. Still not bad looking vehicle. Nice flip
Id take that Ridgeline any day of the week!
Your crazy man that Honda Ridgeline is a hell of a truck. Buy it before you regret it man I’m telling ya. They resale for good money. You have a gem
That Nissan was a nice vehicle
the 1rt bimmer looks like just needs a new rear bumper but i would take a closer look under those heat shields in the rear they looked way to clean, i bet they're maybe some damage hiding there
When PRNDS blinks means the mecatronic unit of the gearbox is done
After all this corona stuff got us on lock down this is the only thing I’ve been watching
12:00 didnt one of you get stuck in the trunk?
get a jumper box or jumper cables and connect Positive to a smaller phillips screwdriver and negative on other scredriver and touch your cigarette lighter output. It worked for me. Ignition came on and key came out. Just don't short it.
Wish that Buick wasn't so far away.. these are in abundance here in Jersey
The Infiniti I35 would say "service engine soon" and it did turn on but then it turned off @ 20:12 ...
Well yeah if you own a car , when the key is in position one before the car cranks over that light is always on then once your car starts and does a check it will go out if all is ok...
@@the_first_resort940 I would know because I have a 1999 Infiniti Qx4 and the check engine light reads "Service engine soon"...
Again that is normal function of the obd2 system. It illuminates the light in key position one then when you turn the key it checks all monitors which monitor each system and if any fault is detected it will stay illuminated but it goes out like any other car.

Appreciate the walk around in these difficult times. Thank You Copart and Randy.
To jumpstart the a8 you have to look under this cover in the midle below the windscreen
The Honda might not be your cup of tea, but it certainly deserves to get back on the road. Could be a good quick flip for you. Love your vids man!
On the Audi convertible this is a common fault. These issues are usually caused by internal failure of the Multitronic (CVT) gearbox ECU that is bolted directly onto the gearbox itself. Not a difficult job and the ECUs can be rebuilt but are available.
Well one thing I learned from Audi is to get the trunk open just pull the passenger side floor mat and there is your battery points to boost it
Nice ridgeline, my brother in law has always wanted one, but could not afford to. I hope one day I can afford to find one at copart just like that one and buy it for him.
Future reference. Audi jump point is under the carpet front passenger mid firewall under an aluminum shield
The Infiniti just needs a cleaning under the hood, and in the interior, maybe a headlight and I think that the gauges is just a fuse. Could also use some tires lol.
Randy I would get the ridge back and the BMW with all the parts
The Infiniti had the 'Service engine soon' light come on upon switching on the ignition, you simply missed it 😅
I was going to say the same thing Cruz I got the same car
I love these vids about damaged cars, keep em comin
Glad that the people at Copart are letting you continue to make videos
*the key removal in that Audi A8 is no big secret it's even in the owners manual about the pin hole in the key surround. not really hard to figure it out from there. you could also use a good stiff piece of wire to release it or even a zip tie .OOOH Ridgeline, you're entitled to your opinion just like everyone else, BUT IT IS A TRUCK! those who say it isn't are the same kind of people that try to say My Cadillac EXT an the Chevy Avalanche isn't a truck also.but they are! they are built on a Suburban frame which is also used in the long bed variety of the pickups therefore it's a truck! ridge line is a tad different but still the same idea. long and short of it though, you either love them or hate them. i happen to love the look of them.I'm not SUPER fond of that Army Green looking color, but i do love the truck still. and it's a clear title with normal wear. not surprised*

Great channel, great content,, subscribed.
Love that 7 series.
Dam that's sukxz. Here in Houston Texas gas is $1.35 a gallon
But you have free healthcare!
Andy I have had Made a comment before about the Audi and how to open the trunk but I think you had never gotten in to it ,to open the trunk fold the rear seats down then you’ll see the release handle if you be able to slide your self in cargo area use light
Hey randy on the far left of that audi uder the right passenger side their is a jump point you pull up on the cowl panel and it pops out their should be one on the fuse box area .
The chevy colorado would be a good buy i think, maybe doesnt need to replace the whole bed only the damaged side.
Hey Randy, I guess the best car/truck would be the Honda Ridgeline!! 😂😂
Agreed. I don't like the Ridgeline but they're good flips. Owners love their Ridgelines and pay good money for them
Ditto. Plus the Honda 3.5 is fairly bullet proof. I always laughed at these too but they are very capable and the owners have about em.
Randy this would be a great flip
Oh and it's not a giant Accord. Its built on the Odyssey minivan platform. The newest ones are built on the Pilot platform and are a bit beefier
@@aaronturner1072 yeah, my only concern would be the timing belt (this is an interference engine) since there is no sticker under the hood. But the truck itself looks to be well cared for, so perhaps the future buyer shouldn't be worried for that.

The Honda Ridgeline is titled as a. "Station Wagon" in Michigan. Randy
That Buick Reviera is so beautiful 😍😍
Get the 18 7 series it looks like a easy fix and will get views to the channel!!!
I love that BMW 7 series. Slap a bumper cover on and sell that shit. I definitely think someone took the key to keep other flippers away. Those keys are expensive to replace, hopefully they have it safe in the office.
That white 19 Silverado looks nice
TK is the BMW fanatic why don't you go in on it together. Split the cost, split the repairs, split the profit and get lots of great content.
The Audi A4 at 10:24 when you started it up, the flashing "PRNDS" means the TCM module is done fore, needs replacement or rebuilt.
And sometimes those flood cars have that hidden mold too. ;)
You have to buy that honda, just a perfect car!
When he started the infinity we both went “ewwww” at the same time both times.. 😂😂
Great video. I noticed during the Audi ragtop walk-around you missed the gen 10 Honda and the older Acura literally right next to it, but you redeemed yourself with the gen 1 Ridgeline (2006 truck of the year at Motor Trend).

on that leaky infinity it has a service engine soon light and it does come on and go out
I love that BMW 7 series...
Get that BMW!
M-Galaxy I would never buy any BMW. I would buy a Lexus before I buy a BMW.
ATX-CVPI Lexus is much more reliable and better quality but I still love my 14 750li!
Not without starting the engine and just watch all them alarm lights, light up like a Christmas tree. I’d never buy a BMW from Copart!
Like the Honda
Nice little Audi convertible. Take the risk
Someone has hidden that key 🔑
On that Audi you can just go through the back seats and pull the emergency trunk release
Randy, why don't you take down the rear seats and pull the emergency trunk release, in the audi?
The battery on the audi is under the cowel where you was pulling i have a 06 audi s4 it has its own plastic cover labeled with a battery logo
With stuff the way it is in the world right now Randy you might want to wear disposable gloves. Touching these will bare hands is pretty sketchy not knowing who been in them. Keep dropping videos and everyone stay
Featured cars like that, they have the keys in the office. When the strap looks like thats a good indication it’s in the office.
Exhaust and bumper with those options is about 15k alone for brand new parts and a terribly long wait. Talk about months if you can even get one.
The Check engine light comes on when you flip the key forward on the top right hand corner
That’s right randy that’s limp mode on the Audi trans.
Salute Randy 🌟 ! 2018 BMW has been doctored up LOL ! Beautiful ride though, shame it's sitting at COPART nothing against Copart LOL . Stay safe brother 👊😎
That E400 AMG looked nice
Hey Randy, thanks for the update. Please lately you've been looking for a BMW, please consider that one
AS GOOD AS NEW MY GUY.GOOD CAR FOR A DEAL.
Buy that Ridgeline, Randy. That will be an easy flip. It looks great and seems to need absolutely nothing.
Randy, the car next to the white Audi is a white Honda accord, I own The Identical car.I was hoping you would review that Honda
i
It would be helpful to know the prices or beginning bids.
last chewy is easy fix plowtorch and get the bends out its bit time consuming but easy
I really enjoy the walk around!! Thanks Randy
Honda seemed to think about making a smaller version of the Chevy Avalanch in my opinion and they have no room in the Honda Ridgeline
There’s a 91 riviera at a pick and pull in Kansas that’s the same colour and looks like a good front end, there might even be one around where you are at
That 7 series is most definitely worth it for real
If the truck doesn’t open can’t you put down the back seats and pull the emergency release? Thats what I do at the junkyard
Section frame and put flatbed on it.
I’m a Honda guy and I don’t like the design of the Ridgeline either
Gidday, the Infinity and Honda have similar milage. Look at the difference.
Big body german sedans. There’s really not much wrong with the 7er, as for the A8, it looks like the air compressor was damaged during the accident, which makes it sit like a lowrider.
You ever think that it's one person taking all the keys so they can get it so cheep or stop other people from buying it because it's a great deal , that bothers me it's always a great buy
Randy theres significant storage under the bed on the Ridgeline
In my opinion, the Honda Ridgeline and Chevy Avalanche are both sedans with missing trunk lids.
Now, Randy, you should of had a paper clip in your bag already. 😖🤣🤣
You need a Tacoma on the channel!!!
