Alternating red and green flashing is because of the immobilizer
Bruh it literally says s500 on the car 😂😂😂
Hey it’s been badged incorrectly. It’s an S320 with the straight 6 M104 engine. The S500 would have an M119 V8.
And don't underestimate the 3.2l M104. Very good and smooth, reliable motor. Replace the engine wiring harness and possibly the throttle body if it hasn't already happened.
thats what I thought too
@@kbcarroll Yeah if you see the gauges jumping around that's a sign the main harness is failing.
@@7477238 isn't that a known issue with this generation of Mercedes Benz cars? They used some kind of biodegradable material to coat the wiring in the wiring harnesses, or something to that extent.
@@markb3756 I believe so, I work part time at a second hand car shop in the holydays and most Mercedes from that time period all have electrical problems. and considering it has been sitting outside for so long the wires in there are probably junk
The S500 is on the W140 platform which was made from 1991-1998, many models we're made including one that had a V12 engine in it, what you guys have there is a short wheelbase model, there was a long wheelbase, a 2-door coupe and a 4-door pullman model, the long wheelbase model was also infamous because Princess Diana unfortunately had her fatal accident but that one was a S280 model. I am excited to see the future for this model, I am sure it'll get a lot of love and attention! Also, whatever that skeleton was, was probably some unfortunate animal that got killed by a fox and dragged under the bumper! And I agree on the wheels part, those aftermarket wheels just look so wrong on a W140, the factory wheels would change the car's appearance immediately.
The Diana S280 was a short wheel base
Diana s600 de olub
Looks like S280, S300 or S320.
R.I.P. Princess Diana. Gone but never forgotten.
Thanks Google 😂
Great find RJ, and an amazing transformation as usual ! We def need an update to let us know what RJ's dad had to do to this car, and if its back on the road now.
Great to see unlike a lot of other channels you guys seems really genuine, your cars really are dirty finds that nobody would look twice at and seems to have issues which you guys approach with all your heart.
Wish you all the best!
Great find! Remove the tail lights and I’ll bet you find rust behind them. Also it’s not an s500 It’s an S320. The S500 started at 98 grand new and was also a 5.0 liter V8 and was only offered in the long wheel base version for the US. You can tell by looking at the rear door windows. They aren’t as long and are more square. But nonetheless it’s a pretty car!
The W140 S500 is from 1993-1998. motor is the M 119 E50.
Nice Touch! I hope you and your dad will work on your relationship and make it long lasting. It takes as much effort as you put into your detailing projects, cleaning, polishing, buffing.
I got to tell you all, I love you All. You all are so dang special! Keep going, your message of responsibility to each other is so needed!
Watching from Germany, and your detailings are beautiful. This Car has to earn all the love you gave to him. I’m sure it will be on road again soon. Those Engines are very stabile and if you didn’t run it without oil are nearly understory. ❤
And just a tip. Take off the the 500 emblem and put the 320 on. Cause everyone will just think you’re trying to be a poser. Don’t to forget to measure so you place the new emblem in the proper spot on the trunk lid. Or just leave the emblem off and only keep the trunk star.
OMG that's so wholesome, father and son working together ❤
Reactions are always subjective. They are what they are.
But I want to throw a shout out to RJ and how you've been putting that orbital polisher to work. It's quickly becoming a lost art with our DA polishers taking over. Good on ya man!
In my opinion, the W140 model was the best car Mercedes has ever built. Very comfortable, lots of space and very pleasant to drive. I had a 1997 S 420 (V8, 280hp) for a few years. A really great car.
@JollyRoger2408: THIS NOT ONLY YOUR OPINION…A LOT CAR ENTHUSIAST & MERCEDES CLASSIC CAR COLLECTORS BELIEVE THE SAME THING…THE W140 S CLASS IS THE BEST GENERATION…I AGREE 1000%! 1. W140, 2. W221, 3. W116…IMO
I love my tanks, so much my wife moved on. Thanks for saving this classic car and I am assured your father loves it as much as all of us. Great work gentleman
Right on brother. Its unconditional love with these cars. True love that wont ever turn on you! Cheers
It’s not a s500 it a s320
R6 S320
That bumper had to b a raccoons hideout
Losing my pops at 9 years old. Seeing fathers and son moments I get to enjoy. I always love that S Class. And yes Mr Wayne is does come in Black. Hope y’all get it started and congrats pops on the car.
This is SWB S320. Using a hose to clean the engine definitely allowed water to flood the wires and spark plugs as th inline 6 has plugs pointing straight up. You have to remove the metal cover and get out as much of the water as you can and dry it out or it'll never run for you.
The flashing lights in the mirror are always an immobilizer problem, key worth checking too
It's funny that you explained the way you wash the cars bottom to top. I've always thought it was so backwards but I knew you did it for the reveal.
I love how far your vids have come!!! I luv the detail and the revival of the mechanicals!!!
Awesome car! Looks like 6 cilinder to me
I really have a mental picture of this getting fixed...❤ You can do this guys
Nice video. Cool to see both the guarded and genuine reaction from your Dad. The nice thing about black is that even if you can't get all the imperfections out, its still stunning from just a few feet away.
Well done, Boys! Great idea handing it off to Dad! Tape an update when you get it to turn over!
Many detailing channels on you tube, I’m from the uk and I find yours most satisfying to watch 👍
This is cool because my Dad just gave me his old 1993 400SEL and now I am getting everything fixed on it. It is a wonderful car to drive.
please show a second video on a update for the car really would love see it running and tell what was the issue.
Excellent video and awesome surprise for your dad. Try the crank sensor as they are common on these cars. I have a C240 I've been fighting
That’s my biggest wish; to surprise my father with a car that he is crazy about. I love the dynamic between the son and father. Reminds me a lot of my relationship with my Dad as well. This video really touched me. Also, that model S-Class is my favorite of all time. You guys do amazing work!!! Keep it up!! 👍🏽🫶🏽
W Partnership
I would love to see updates on this being restored!!
I'd love to own a W140! that boxy shape is just awesome!
That's a W140 S320... absolutely love them
great presentation. terrific detail. incredible ending!!! One more thing: the plating inside German gas tanks starts scaling after a period. I know! I've worked on and replaced a few....
I know you have your own line of productional, but I will always use and always have used the scrubby bubbles that you spray on bathroom surfaces. That foams up, it cuts the detailing indoor jams completely out with no effort spread on slightly scrub wipe it off and it looks better than. Brand new!
LOVE THE VIDEO ❤️❤️GREAT SURPRISE GIVING THE MERCEDES AWAY 👍👍😘😘
Red/green lamp is for the immobilizer change to a new key by the dealer before you do anything more ,
if you used the old key you can be locked out with the immobilizer
great video you guys love the car job well done that was a awesome thing you did giving it to your dad all the best
Nice work guys Reminds me of park center days thanjs
Lots of love from Nepal, you guys are amazing
I love this car I love this video I love the way these guys make cars look brand new
100%. a raccoon was living in that... going into the garbage and brining it back to his little house!
Great job guys. Another awesome story!
Thanks man!
The green and red lights are your indicator lights for the locking system. They used that before the turn indicators. Red and green flashing alternately is telling you your key battery is nearing its end. If you try starting it and they start blinking it‘s telling you the immobilizer is active.
Great job guys you definitely need an update on the car if RJ's dad got it to start running
That car had to be deep wash clean
These cars are solid as rock , I owned one E300 for few years, it was pleasant to drive.
Wow, now that’s a Elegant luxury sedan car, so classic, a treasure
7:54 Since you guys didn't get the S280 in the States, this has to be an S320.. It's def the inline six. Not a V8 S500 :)
Súper Job 👍👍👍congratulations
1:25 so wait . he came inside and didnt recognize directly that this is a benz ?.oh xD
I’m a JDM fan. Whoops
phenomenal big body benz, all it needs is a $12,000 exhaust from Japan, similar to Effspot's benz setup
Love you dad…love you too. That’s enough. Amazing
Super Video Thank you 😚🤟👌👍
The engine is the 320 straight six
What a lovely gift
Really good rj
Old Mercedes, Audis and BMWs are so cool.
Not a good idea watching this video with a sick stomach 🥴 i almost barfed all over myself watching the bones haha. Excellent job, guys!
You are ROCKSTARS
Super cool of you, glad it got a worthy owner
King video.
These were built like absolute tanks. A shrewd investment.
Was waiting for the part of getting it running
Awesome job guys 💙💙
Thanks Adam!
Nice find i enjoy my 97 s320
We need a follow-up video to see him get it running
Hope he gets it sorted 👍👍
beautiful car❤
In these cars you can’t just wash the engine with water pressure! There are special covers with which you need to cover the top cover of the motor before washing. If this is not done, water can easily flood the spark plugs and ignition coils. in this case, you need to unscrew the bolts, remove the cover, remove the coils, remove the water, and then try to start the car.
This S-Clss model was a legend in the Middle East and was/is still called ‘The Alligator’
Ooo why?
I love stories like that. German cars like Mercedes are indestructible if they are properly maintained (inspected).
I'm a big fan. Watching from East-Germany. You are doing a very good job. Thank you for capturing everything on camera! Keep it up. More Content! Greetings Daniel / Don't be surprised because of my account name. My son has my account. ;o))
if anyone is wondering
some of the music that they use is from vexento
Looks like an s320 it has the m104 straight inline 6 motor! Very nice tho ❤
i had the same issue the problem is the crank shaft position sensor.. i changed it which is in the most horrible part of the engine. it started right up
I would check grounds clean them, go through the wiring harness.
Great job.
عملكم ممتع ورائع ❤
Did you get it to start, I had that same problem with my E320 and it was the crank position sensor.
IT is actually a 3,2 R6, but there is a label S500 on the back
RJ looks like his dad. RJ is lucky to get back with his dad.
Hey. You guys are good. Also you come across as good decent people.
I wonder what those ants was thinking when shop vac them....lol they went through portal into a different dimension
It's a 95 or 96 b/c it has the '95 mid-cycle refresh (lower cladding has the beltline in it and the lower rear trunk corners round into the light area, (pre-refresh it had hard angular corners where the trunk meets the lights), wiring harness issue was mid-'92 through '95, so if it's a '96 it's good. '97/'98 brought the last updates of clear rear turn signals (w/amber bulbs) instead of amber lenses, like this '95 or '96....the point of this is if has the wiring harness issue or not, and by the exterior being the '95 mid-cycle refresh, it could if a '95, or not if a '96, as '95/'96 looked the same...'97 brought more exterior changes for '97/'98, to deep sporty looking 6-hole wheels instead of the standard Benz "manhole covers" as well as clear rear turn signal lenses.
Never knew you were from Cleveland I live on the east side. Gotta get one of my cars to you one day 😂
Мерседес - красавчик! Прекрасная работа!👍
It seems like a VATS issue. Injectors have to be firing to start which it does. It acts like its killing the ignition or fuel after startup.
Awesome vid what is the name of the music playing in the background lol
Beautiful car .
That’s either the s280 (available in some countries I believe) or the s320 because that is the m104 engine but if it’s the s500 should be the m119 v8
I would guess that the fuel injectors need replacing. I have a 93 400 SEL that won't stay running and I've changed the fuel pump and filter already. I feel pretty certain that the injectors are bad.
Hi guys, your work is soooo good, i am ali khan ,from pakistan, karachi
That’s definitely an S320 with the great M104.99x 3.2 inline 6 with 228hp. And not an S500 with the M119 5.0 V8 ( comes with 4.2 as well on the S420) there is also a 3.5 diesel S350 and last but not least a top dawg M120 6.0 V12 with 403hp on 1st year models but got detuned to 389 on the later years. This engine powers the clk gtr, pagani Zonda and every paganis made to date basically use the same V12 from merc with added turbo chargers ofcourse.
Great car. But seems like an s320 badged as an s500. Looks like an inline 6
Yeah starting up an old sitting benz working on ke jetronic is always a pain in the ass 😂
That is definitely a nice vehicle
The best car ever, build
hi guys great video,can i ask why you do jet washing inside your shop ?
The thumbnail shows the car had green moss in it...wow
Love w140s is that a Rambler convertible
