I really look down on people who get brand new high end smartphones each year by a contract because they are putting themselves in debt more than just paying for the phone outright, then for the service, and keeping it long term for at least 4 - 5 years till it's gets damaged or outdated.

If it is less than 25 years old, it gets plugged into the ODB2 and as long as it doesn't have any codes, they'll pass it. Older cars just get safety inspections, so again, it's nothing an extra 20 won't fix. I used to take one of my cars to one of those mechanics because of a crack in the windshield and I didn't have the money to replace it at the time (teenager working for minimum wage). It also had an exhaust leak. This was back in the Dyno days and they put another car on the Dyno and printed up a sticker for $20. He did have some scruples, though. If the car couldn't pass a safety inspection, otherwise (other than a cracked windshield), he wouldn't pass it.

But those Combos were always starting up and had decent and consistant power.

This stuff makes me glad I live in a state with safety inspections every 2 years, as much of a pain that it can be.

"Police car ... started sounding like a squealing pig" Sounds quite ironic LOL

When I was younger and living in West Virginia, we didn’t have vehicle inspections. Many years later mover to New Jersey and had yearly inspections. Figured out why most of the cars in WV were rusted out, major body parts missing and didn’t need mufflers.

wow just subscribed to the channel after watching quite a few videos! great stuff! lovee the content, really funny auto fails.

Usually the same customers that do these mickey mouse jobs on their cars are the same people that won't pay anything over 100 dollars to get it fix.

I'd love to know how much that spray foam "fix" cost the customer, having to tear apart the dash like that. Rattles annoy me too, but geez, spray foam?

It's amazing that some people can find their way out of the house in the morning.

So now we know a Mercedes X-class can handle up to 97k mile intervals between oil changes. Maybe do it at 80k just to be safe 😂

Somewhat related. I did customer service for a computer company. Fellow called and asked for a car charger for his laptop--presumed that a laptop is like a cell phone. I gently advised that he would need an inverter to charge laptop in his car. We did not sell inverters. I hope I educated the customer a bit. 8)

When I was stationed in England we had both American 120-volt outlets (albeit at 50 Hz) and British 240-volt outlets. AAFES sold a 240-to-120 volt plug adapter, but all it did was change the shape of the plug. It didn't affect the voltage one iota. Somebody needed to run a computer at That Spot, but there wasn't a 120-volt outlet in That Spot. They went to AAFES and bought the adapter then brought it back and plugged their surge suppressor into the adapter. The surge suppressor that functioned by clamping the voltage to 125 volts. And I will say that that poor surge suppressor tried with every part and portion of its being to clamp 240 volts to125. It failed. And burst into flames. Must have been spectacular. I wish I'd been there to see that.

@@JustRolledIn I work in oil and fuel development. We do 100,000 mile no oil change tests. The engine is only topped up as needed and filters changed as per service requirements. Some modern oils are still working at 100,000 miles. The engine is worn but not excessively or so much its knocking or rumbling. Before the test. The new engine is stripped and weighed and measured. After the end of the test the engine is stripped and parts are measured. We also keep logs of engine load, RPM, RPM duration, fuel consumption. etc. Fun fact: The humble 14mm bolt typically has a yield strength of around 4 tons. Meaning you can theoretically lift most cars on 1 x 14mm bolt.

My first thought is that there must be better things to winch onto than cargo hooks and battery hold downs... But then I remember that half of the cars on this channel are like 2:08 and there probably isn't a part of the car that's in one piece...

I continue to be amazed by the stupidity of some drivers.

To be fair, I don't know that every vehicle has a 3-5,000 mile oil change interval. I go by what the manufacturer recommends. For my old car it was every 3,000 miles. For my new Honda, it's about 10,000 miles.

That's been the case for well over thirty years. My Renault is twenty years old and the recommended interval is 18k miles. It's done well over 200,000 miles and uses very little oil between services. To my mind anyone changing a modern oil every 3000 miles is just wasting money, unless perhaps they live in an extreme climate with high levels of silicate dust or similar.

In Maine about 20 years ago, hot rodders found a new sleeper; Volvo 240 sedans and wagons in great shape with junk engines. Yuppies never had their oil changed. A small block chevy under the hood sure was fun- and the cops never noticed the stodgy old Volvo...

Those 4 banger Volvo engines are hard to kill! It takes another level of stupid...that we see so often!

As much as people hate safety inspections, these clips show exactly why we need them. Some people are just not capable of understanding what is safe and what is not. Not to mention the idiots who try to wire in a power strip, or hook a tow strap in the wrong place.

I am curious if the content provider or someone else can answer this. A lot of the clips in just rolled in involved really dumb car owners. My question is, of all the car owners who bring their vehicles in for maintenance or repair, what percentage do such stupid stuff?

@Cherry-qh9hi

I doubt it's more than 1% (probably way less), just seems way higher from these videos because no one records and sends in clips about perfectly maintained cars Also people who don't maintain their vehicles obviously don't bring in them in until they die, lowering the percentage even further
