Have you seen this E46 M3 estate
Couldn't happen to a better bloke
"I am currently in an Audi, heading to Mercedes to buy a BMW" 😂😂😂
😂
Then to go in a taxi 🚕
You as well as Calv? That's a coincidence
@@joshjack6127 ha ha
What a combo init 😅
You are very lucky that you were dealing with a professional garage who offered your money back straight away. Well done Mercedes 👏
Wasn't Lucky, guys a TH-camr filming a video
TH-camr? Really not. This is called guarantee in Spain and many places in Europe.
Dealer has no choice. Vehicle is not fit for purpose and has a legal obligation to offer exchange or refund. Thank god he didn't buy private.
Maybe matt Armstrong would like as a project
Na. Its not fucked enough for Matt
@@wuzbomb that’s true 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@wuzbomb he can only fix simple stuff,, 😂😂
He had the c63 and his balls dropped out,, 😂😂
Because frame straightening is simple and something everyone can do in their unit...
😅
Fair play to the previous owner because he had that Mercedes Dealer well over, he knew it was knackered. I’ll bet he’s mutley laughing at this vid!
These car dealers have tucked up many of customers in the past
Bottom ends gone !! I think the guy put really thick oil in it to hide it
Its me Igor...laughing
2:51 Something blue comes out of the exhaust pipe,
already looks strange before the engine sound comes
Well spotted 🤔
@@deadlydizzle7588 Thanks
Blue smoke typically means ur piston rings are worn down
Its the brexit exhaust smoke package .. the red and white tanks have ran out
it's probably a very poor tune remap that's caused it, as well as the usual oil pump failure on 2012 M5s
The quikest buy and sell Calvin's every done 😂😂😂
0:05 - That is unintentional foreshadowing at its finest!
Hahaha
KNOCK KNOCK WHO'S THERE!!
ROD BEARINGS!
Rod who?
@@saimencelli9049 ronnie pickering!
RODNEY
Nothing a bottomless pit of money won't fix
When he gets his stuff out and feels the need to say ‘soft close doors’ had me creasing ahah
"You can't hear anything, stand there" there you go, sounds like a taxi 😂😂
I bet the manager still wanted to say, he still can't hear nothing when he went to the front 😂
Did the manager need to see a rod and piston fly through the engine cover lol
Ahaaa
🤣🤣
"I can't hear nothing" cheeky manager lool
Paul needs some hearing aids
His videos are good, easy to watch, plus he seems like a genuine bloke and car enthusiast
It’s good that you’ve realised in the car park, imagine you came back home and the noise came after a few days..
Yea it would’ve been too late by then. Even if I’d of driven it down the road for 5 mins then spotted it, that would’ve also been my problem. It needs to be spotted at the point of sale.
@@CalvinsCarDiary I bet the manager wished you drove 5mins down the road 😂
I still want one of these but this puts me off a little bit.
@@jameslawrie3082 I don’t think it should put you off to be honest, most of the time they’re okay just make sure you buy it from a dealership not a private one.
@@jameslawrie3082 dont do it unless you have lots of cash
9 times out of ten, these people who sell these prestige cars are clueless when it comes to their trade. Hence buying a lemon. Good call Calv, those wheels are enough to sway anyone. Glad you walked away
yep, just as i was thinking to myself how the hell did they take this in without noticing the manager pops up and says he cant hear anything lol
They purposely employ people that don't know anything about the product but can sell it blind like a mobile phone. They don't like staff getting involved in technical conversations. They always want to direct the conversation towards money as that's what the showroom wants. They want staff talking about doing a deal rather then the car or the brand.
71 Thousand raged the f#%ked miles.
Or mileage blocker 👀
Tru the last owner probably raged it very hard poor car
Or with tha piss thin BMW shit oil
It’s a m5 they all need conrod shells doing at around 50-60k mark so is no surprise here.
@@vytautasminalga3905 isn't that normally the E60 m5 ?
That is an f10 so no rod bearing problem.
So maby another defekt that had a spun bearing as consequence.
Or previous owner just floored it cold a lot...
Hi Calvin happy new year to you and hope you are all staying safe and well and hope you glad a good Christmas and really licked the intro and glad to see you back
100% bottom end and remember this year 2012 m5 suffered oil pump failures,i think there was a recall for them
Hi Calvin happy new year to you and hope you had a good Christmas and hope you are staying safe and well
Gutted for you mate, At least the manager was sound, i'm still having a nightmare with Partridge BMW after they sold me a M2 with a load of poorly repaired accident damage. Am gutted
All the staff at Mercedes Benz MK were brilliant. Respect to all of them for how well they dealt with the situation.
All the best with the issue with your purchase mate. Don’t stress man you’ll get something sorted.
@@CalvinsCarDiary good job you clocked it tho mate
They were super good with him because he never even pulled out off the court 95% chance
@@CalvinsCarDiary Thanks mate, Was a bucket list car and i can't even enjoy it at the moment!
Congratulations on getting to 124,000 subscribers and well done for all your hard work
Going by the managers original reaction that he could not hear anything it's clear that they knew what the issue was a took it in dirt cheap and tried to flog it to you. How can a Mercedes dealership not know the issues even after doing a 120 point check on all the vehicles that come through..... You definitely made the right decision.
I doubt that, franchise Mercedes won’t bother scamming someone they have their reputation to uphold. As you saw on a quick blip car sounded fine, its only when you hold the revs steady you hear the knocking. Their 120 point check won’t pick it up, plus no fault codes so only a test drive would which I suspect they didn’t do.
unless they are retailing a car they won't do any extensive checks they making enough on the car the customer is buying their priority is not to make profit on trade in. They also keep margin for unexpected issues in their trade in price so they don't have to extensively check a car, otherwise people might just come in to get a quote and get their car checked.
it sounds like a ford transit 😂😂😂😂😂
I literally thought the exact same thing 😂
My guess is, that it is a 1990 Transit with an M5 bodykit.
@Del Monte 🤣😂
M5 Tdci that is wicked!
Sweet video Calvin!
Definitely a spun rod bearing engine is knackered
To me that sounds like a pully or a faulty tensioner...a spun bearing would be consistent...either way I'm surprised the dealership didn't notice this at an earlier stage.
Literally sounds line an old transit van, that’s crazy hahahah
Imagine the phone call from Mercedes to BMW saying they have a M5 they want to book in to them for a repair!.. Lol
Apart from that issue which needs sorting out, that F10 M5 is a proper beast
Sounds exactly when my main bearing went on my f30 .... definitely not cheap to fix so you made a good choice 👍🏽
Might actually be your crankshaft pully, if the bearings are gone than you'll have a constant taping noise.
Mate that was a proper cool video. Like an insight into the trials and tribulations of a car trader. Would like to see more of those, I recon would be good content. Gutted about the car, but at least the manager was sound.
some good lessons of the trade here, you were right on it!
Glad to see you finally wearing a nice time piece ;)
Awwwww gutted Calvin 😢, such a gorgeous car. Hope whoever buys it gives it some love ❤️
You can see blue smoke coming out of the exhaust that indicates worn rod bearing and piston rings.
Now me and the mad scientist have to replace the piston rings you fried.
Bearings do not puff any smoke.
Maybe valve stem seals 🤷♂️
Why do people continue to Rev an engine even after everyone involved can see, that, it is clearly broken. Not helping anyone 😅
Its already screwed so it makes no odds
I always think exactly this 😅
@@fatwalletboy2 its potentially not. Possibly still fixable. Rod bearings and oil pump M cars are notorious for it.
Revving fucks it further
Once they rattle , start knocking , or even slight noises , it's all down hill from there , this is a not something a quick fix can sort , I'm a mechanic by trade and I know 100% and can safely say iv never seen nore will I ever see someone quick fix something like this , I know u may have seen some films or programmes on tele where the trader bodges the engine with sawdust or other silly stuff but its fictional . Oil thickener wont work either lol , bottom end bearings fail , it's just nature , the only remedy is replacement of the failed components, or an engine swap , either way , it's a costly situation. Iv worked on the M3 engine and the same situation arose, we stripped the engine once removed and replaced the failed components , bottom end bearings , rods , and once you start delving into the damage you see the destruction that slight noise actually makes. Its like swinging your arm with a dislocated elbow , the rods slap , the piston can score the cylinder, the list goes on , we got 50% of the way through and realised an engine swap would have been soooooo much easier lol . Like I said, its nature, components fail and grease monkeys like us rectify the problems . What I'm trying to say basically is , he could have drove it , revved it , dine anything , end of the day the damage is done, Calvin sat revving it to show the manager is something that needed to be done and tbh , what else could he do ? Thankfully he got refunded . Love the videos @Calvin keep em coming
@@davidedis324 You know 100% of fuck all.The "BMW DOCTOR" on youtube could fix this . 2 bottles of forte shit. A chinese code reader and he could have this MINT .
Manager cant hear nothing 😂😂😂😂 obviously was the one that test driven it 😂😂
Nice car as well mate 😔 glad you court it when you did keep up the great content 👊🏻
Nice Bmw calv and the colour on it is wavyyyyyyy
im shocked that they actually took this car in part exchange and never noticed, this is a rookie mistake something i wouldn't expect from a Mercedes dealer
Dealers rarely test drive px cars before doing the deal.
@@mightywatcher5894 they wouldn’t have a leg to stand on if they did.
Makes you question the second hand cars they resell on
@@leet7031 i highly doubt they didn't know as well even when driving it around the lot you would've heard the knocking. seems like they was trying to pull a quick one on someone, if calvin went 2 minutes up the road it would've been his responsibility and wouldn't of got a refund
@@mightywatcher5894 sold as seen to a main dealer
The thumbnail got me 😂😂👏🏾 great video
The best video yet hands down
Genuine question Calvin cus I'm just interested as to how it works in the trade.... if you by some miracle you had managed to get back to bincar with that and then it started making the noise, or say it did it a day later....where would you have stood with the Merc dealer? I'm also very surprised an 8yr old M5 is already busted!
Genuine question Calvin, did you check the oil level? But tbh the smoke coming out the exhaust from the start looked excessive anyway
A nice repair for VRS lol they can do the rod bearings!!
They’ll just stick it in an auction and punt it on or something
should have asked them to knock 10k off the price. get it sorted with the new engine then make more profit when you sell because it has a new engine.
8k for an engine and then labour wouldn't be worth it also the hassle
Rod bearings 😩
its sounds come more from the head area.
@@paulsp2693 definitely bottom end not head
@@addersgti I agree. I had a car that sounded just like that before it seized solid on No.4 main bearing. It cost me £2.5k for a rebuild! And that's doesn't include removing and re-installing the engine.
Great vid Calvin. But can someone shed some light on a question I have. Being the bottom end is knackered, cant the parts such as the rods, bearings, crank, pistonts, rings etc. Just be replaced instead of the whole engine all dependant on the severity of the damage of course. Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.
Calvin do you still have that heated seats kit you bought for the alfa and if so can i buy it from you
This car needs Calvin and Will to breathe some life back into it at VRS 👌🏾
Happened to my beemer same noise from bottom end con rods spit the shells out and was knocking on the crank - new engine 😬😬
I thought the rod bearings was mostly the curse of the E9X M3, guess BMW didn’t learn their lesson that owners of these cars don’t bother warming up the engine. I think an extended warranty on these is a must
Gutted for you calv lovely car just glad it was proper trader bet so many people have been screwed over with this sort of shit.
That is buggered bro!! Bottom end!! I have just had the same thing. Hit me up if you want some contacts for fixing it.
Common as with these on the m models even the older ones. On the Facebook owners group they always say this is what to be changing if it’s not done.
4:01 bmw rlly does make fantastic sounding chimes
What app do you use to get the extras from new to show up ?
Rod bearings? Do you know if the service history was all good?
If the bearings had gone the engine wouldn’t be running they don’t give any indication of going they just choose their time
check oil level, turboed, and sports cars consume alot, good old change will cure it :)
its a total shock about the engine cal m8 because the bmw M5 looks a amazing looking car
Hi looking for some help/advice. I'm looking at purchasing a 2015 bmw x6 3.0d with 50,000 miles from a garage I'm a bit concerned about the reliability if you could let me know your thoughts? Many thanks
As long as the service history is there it should be fine. The diesels are pretty reliable
That’s fine 50k is nothing for these cars
@@bednar23 thanks for your reply. Its for park motor group full service history the forums scare the life out of me especially when you have a young family in the car i currently have a 17 playe audi a5 sportback love it but just find its not a lot of space thanks again
@@ZaKTricKzzz thanks for your reply i would say 50,000 isn't even broken in its just the forums I'm worried about
@@raydonferrari1 you'll be fine with one of the diesels. Regularly see them on different car markets with well over 150,000 miles on them. My mate has a 2015 520d and its been bulletproof
who else noticed the switch from the seamaster to a submariner :::))
Did you not test drive it and does it not go through a 100 point check before sale?
Hi Calvin ,great video bud ,loving your new watch can you add it in one of your videos ...
Hmmm, me thinks any other buyer would have been told,no refund,sold as seen,it was okay when we test drove it.
They will just fire it into Copart.
Almost every video thumbnail has Calvin holding his head in his hands 😆
Off subject, will you be fitting a turbo or a supercharger to the m3 touring build?
Big Turbo
She’s knocking on the door 100% knackered
A BMW specialist I used to do work for had a number of M5’s with this issue, obviously quite common. You’d think a big German lump would be more reliable.
So youre telling me between march 2017 and march 2018 this car did 2000 miles ?.. its not even got an mot on it neither
Was you near Wellingborough the other day in the rs7. If not there's another one in the same colour
Love the dealer response, not that it shouldn't be any different, but take a video, sends you the refund. Its what you want. Not the overall hassle of finding it wrecked, but still. Sadly i a not sure same can be said for the salesman that took it as part - ex. I bet they have taken a big hit on that - interesting to understand the other end, but even for a dealer/MB - buyer beware. Like you say Calvin - USED car game. Full of laughs!
I was underbidder
Glad it was you and not me 😂😂
Good luck with it mate👍
Smiling at the title before I even press play! 👌
Is this space grey ?
Grey m5 with black leathers in a f10 kinda hard to find il buy this one .
Omg , would love to know if there is any come back on the seller and whether Mercedes right it off as one of those things 👍👍
The engine was definitely messed. Not only from the sound but even the WHITE SMOKE coming out of the exhaust when the car was in idle and warmed up. Thats really bad signs. Signs of a busted head gasket or even cracked cylinders. Good job you realised straight away but i would of been alot more alert once i saw all that white smoke coming out of the exhaust from idle.
Not a mechanic but I've had 2 cars with faulty gearboxes and when you hear a mechanical rattling noise from a car it sends shivers down your spine
Also is it a dealers preset response to say "I don't hear anything" lol! Glad you got a refund in the end though.
Go for the BMW m3 E46 in the background. Best shaped M3 ever!
It's a beauty right?
That engine sounds the exact same as my old ML63 AMG conrods and also had blue smoke, I got a mate of mine to rebuild it so fully forged it why not
@Calvin's Car Diary, nice Rolex 116613LN. I owned one myself back in 2018. Wear it in good health. Regards.
Interesting video, you dodged a bullet there Cal.
This reminds me of the dodgy dealers years ago used to put sawdust in just to keep it quiet long enough to sell it!
Old nylon stockings in the sump!
Dropping them f bombs🤯
Why continue to rev it when you know its well and truly knackered defiantly rod bearing somewhere along the line. stitched up good a proper !
And this is the reason why there isn’t an F10 M5 in my driveway!! Knowing my luck I’d do 300 miles in and then that would happen . Scares the absolute @&£&e out of me
why I'm gonna buy a diesel 3 series over an 335i ahahaha
To Calvin, loving the watch. Is it a Rolex s and g???
Bottom end rod bearings, just had mine done
So are they really saying that they didn't know?! Especially when one of their technicians would definitely have revved it up to hear the V8 sound!! And it wasn't test driven?! I think they knew full well!
I love that the manager gives it a tiny rev and says he can't hear anything.........you aint wriggling out of this.......
Do they not check the cars before hand mechanically before accepting a part ex
These man tried finessing Calv
I have a f10 M5 is well and when I get to about 50-60mph it pulls me to the left anyone know what the problem could be? Calvin will probably be for sale soon is well 👊
The power of social media playing its part in getting a refund right here
Calvin, you should have bought Will with you to look over that car. At least it didn't happen after leaving the dealership, so they try & blame you
Don’t think he’s going to to all the way down to look at at car that’s obviously got fucked rod bearings
Don't think he needed a mechanic just someone with ears
