Dee, I'm glad u kept it moving, despite frustrations. Tomorrow will be a better day. U did all u could today, for tomorrow will be a better day, u did not give up. 👊
@@SALVAGENATION that's one thing I have noted with u Dee, no fake smiles for the camera. I'm in IT industry, I also go through the same thing, sometimes.
Hi from durham dee👋👍 who'd of thought ""just the tip"" would be anti climatic😂😂 we all have them days bro your only human to feel the way you feel man👍 if it makes you feel better I just done oil pump repair on 2004 audi and when I removed the smalles circlip from front of the pump for where hex shaft locates it went (shall we say ""somewhere"")🤔 lol I spent 3 hrs 🕵 and couldnt find it so waiting for circlip set coming from yea olde amazon😂 I mean its not like I couldnt of had car built up and out but yeah man these things happen to best of us ( then when your not looking for your end 🤔😂 itll just be there like 🕵 hi I been here for weeks 😂 why you walked past me so many times 😂😂 thanks for your time and be safe see you soon👍👋 ps good job as always man keep it real keep it moving!!!
I'm surprised at the way you bleed the water system, your ment to put the heaters on inside the car so you can get hot air inside and wont over heat the water system as the trapped air has some where to go
Just found you , TH-cam suggestion, been watching Sr UK for a year or more and good old yt just suggested you , bit slow innit . You are great , binge watched last night many old episodes , so glad it suggested a 6 week old one and I could watch the next few !! Liked em all , subscribed , keep keeping it real !!!!
They have different additives in for corrosion purposes I.e alloy steel this should have g13 I belive it says on the side of water bottle I no it shouldn't have blue 👍👍
Why not just cut rivets of with a grinder with a sliding/cutting wheel shouldn't be much metal on the rivet left and then knock it through with a centre punch,
Just come across you on youtube and enjoying your videos. Definitely a cat S car, any panel that can not be unbolted from the car is a structural part of the car. Copart are a terrible company to deal with, they hide so much plus they are near impossible to get hold of or to get any kind of reply from.
Hi mate, did you do your own car history check? I always do my own checks even tho copart state the category. Copart told me themselves that I should do my own checks.
There are two different types of blue anti freeze, Ethylene glycol and Propylene glycol, it shouldn't be used in newer VAG cars since like 1998 lol, the freezing point (you waaaay over diluted it with tap water, should always use distilled water, as tap water contain limescale like in your kettle which can fuck up your waterpump and boiling point is lower) isn't much different but the additives in it only last 2 years. If the system is completely drained yeah you can use it but its not the right stuff. The correct coolant for this car is G12 spec coolant which is the pinky red coolant which should be mixed 50/50 with distilled water if not already premixed.
Damage to the Sill outer skin isn't classed as structural, as it isn't structural, but the inner sill is structural, which looked fine in the video. Also just want to say Copart don't set the classification for cars like C, B, D, N or S, insurance companies and assessors set that. No point blaming Copart. Also if you're investing in something so expensive you should be actually going in person and assessing cars you are wanting to buy, as that is the buyers responsibility.
Dee i wish when using the angle grinder you would wear gloves! I had a blade shatter about a year ago a trip to hospital very pain full surgery while awake! And my finger is still disformed and some days uncomftable! Great videos though.
Dee that’s the wrong coolant mate vw Audi red stuff think G12 . Check on the water filler bottle on car it should say G something. Think the blue stuff has different additives and can cause corrosion. It’s getting there mate
I bought car with panoramic roof. On auction there was no photos of roof (from top or from inside) . When i collect car glass roof was broken , fokin copart.

Cheers! Glad u liked it! Theres a ton to catch up on!
Dee, a simple Google search explains the 4 coolant colours, organic, silicates involved.
They have different additives in for corrosion purposes I.e alloy steel this should have g13 I belive it says on the side of water bottle I no it shouldn't have blue 👍👍
Quick question bro, Once the vehicle gets repaired and you sell it on is the car still classed as non structural damage for the insurance?
Yh stays on the record
@@SALVAGENATION nice, you doing a great job bro

Copart are a terrible company to deal with, they hide so much plus they are near impossible to get hold of or to get any kind of reply from.
How do they reply to county court papers or when the bailiffs turn up? I bet alot quicker then
Hi mate, did you do your own car history check? I always do my own checks even tho copart state the category. Copart told me themselves that I should do my own checks.
Yes i do. Its cat n
@@SALVAGENATION its coming up as Cat N from your own check? I defo dont trust Coparts category
I think the coolant thing is just different spec coolant for different cars etc.
There are two different types of blue anti freeze, Ethylene glycol and Propylene glycol, it shouldn't be used in newer VAG cars since like 1998 lol, the freezing point (you waaaay over diluted it with tap water, should always use distilled water, as tap water contain limescale like in your kettle which can fuck up your waterpump and boiling point is lower) isn't much different but the additives in it only last 2 years.

Sorry to hear that mate, your correct will head and get some today!
Dee that’s the wrong coolant mate vw Audi red stuff think G12 . Check on the water filler bottle on car it should say G something. Think the blue stuff has different additives and can cause corrosion.
It’s getting there mate
Thanks I’ll be swapping it out
I’d use G13 antifreeze dude. All VAG at G12, G12++ or G13.
Flip flop garage!
Brill mate
Problem with autodoc is it takes a minimum of 2 weeks for the parts to come.
Dee the work you do is amazing,keep up the good work as always .D
The A3 is looking good :D
Straight up cat S, Copart will not take responsibility bro, they always have a get out clause in terms
Yep
Yes definitely been burnt by co-part
Cop art doesn’t lie they just look at it from the outside they don’t take things off or look for damage
I bought car with panoramic roof. On auction there was no photos of roof (from top or from inside) . When i collect car glass roof was broken , fokin copart.
I guess I'm lucky with Copart USA.
