My wife's RAV4 ended up with TWO of those inspection windows when it threw two rods while passing a truck. (Even after a full autopsy I have no idea why). BUT - when the car trailer arrived - it managed to drive itself up onto the trailer on the two remaining cylinders. Only damage was the block, the sump, two rods and two pistons. Everything else was re-usable (though I didn't actually re-use the crank because it had obviously been subjected to unusual loads hammering rods out through the block...)

HAHAHA Not the Sport Cobra Camaro Convertible.

0:24 I managed to drive my old Dodge Spirit 30 +- miles back home on 3 cylinders, with the 4th broken and a hole in the block. Some engines can keep running for a while after catastrophic failure . Needless to say, that car was scrapped.

My favorite part of this video is the bicycle chainring in the intro lol

Thank. God I live In the Uk where there’s an annul MOT test!

Good lord, yeah. EGR systems are horrible when maintenance is neglected. I bought a 9-year-old car used. Little 4 cylinder in-line. Had an EGR and no record of an injector service ever being done, so I did it to clean it out a bit. It threw so much soot out the exhaust it actually changed the engine compression ratio and set a MIL. It literally went from maybe 30 MPG on a good day to getting closer to 45 highway. Good job, engineers.

3:47 luckily it failed just before the warranty is up

MVP (Most Valued Part) has to go to the 944's timing belt for not snapping and potentially grenading the engine of a wonderful classic. Although the the blown engine that still drove itself to the shop probably deserves the award as well!

A masterpiece.

Exact reason why I haven’t upgraded my 2019 vw atlas. I was so excited for the 2024 refresh and was days away from trading mine in until they announced it’s only coming in a 4 cylinder. Now I’ll be going to a BMW x3 or x5 for its 6 or 8 cylinder at the end of the year

This show reminds of a friend I once had. She did absolutely nothing but put gas in & drove. 9 out of 10 cars got crashed before problems started in. She died of cancer, not a car crash. P.S. Never but never loan your vehicle to anyone.

i just changed my cabin filter. i don't think anyone has ever changed it before. there were leaves in there from autumn of '99. i also dropped the blower motor and removed some leaves that were trapped in the birdcage of the fan making noise.

Look left, look right. These well maintained crash test vehicles are next to you.

We fit catch cans, to our diesels , to stop this, egr issue,, happily we do not have to salt roads in Australia, so chassis rust isn't an issue , unless you do a lot of beach driving.
