Sr10 for Reclimet discount 👍 happy Easter
Glad we were able to help. Thank you for the kind words.
This is exactly why we subscribe lads. No dressing things up for UA-cam, just honest including the lows along with the highs.

Congrats fellas
You could see oil on the floor when you went to get the car.
He’s wife was driving,a likely story lol🙄😂
There’s no way that seller didn’t know the engine was seized and a big hole in the sump! Why can’t people be honest! Shame you didn’t see the hole before committing to buying it or test the engine. Oh well. Good luck with the repairs.
Yep typical bull$hitters
His wife was driving, he was half cut. I’m sure the fact oil would have been pouring out the sump would have been mention by the recovery truck driver at the scene, but who’s to say either of them has any mechanical knowledge…
I love the way you both take bad news on the chin, and crack on and fix it. Myself and im sure many others would throw the toys out of the pram😂 Fair play, good luck.
Depends.. if its crashed at night then been recovered and dropped off then they probably didn't know... the car was fucked anyway so it's not like they were going to go round and carry out an inspection
What a stroke of luck getting that complete engine, the old saying boys you only get what you deserve. You treat people how you want to be treated. Brilliant vid lads looking forward forward to the next one.
Shameful people there’s no way they didn’t know that, love the way Rob is still so upbeat about the whole situation . You guys are true troopers!
I would understand if it was from salvage auction, ups and downs, rough with the smooth. But from a private seller… there no way they didn’t know about that engine being toast
How would they know they’re not mechanics? It’s been in a recovery yard for over a month. If they’d have known they would have told me
I don’t have much of a technical knowledge of the excellent work you lads do, but the customer experience between Reclamet and Copart is night and day and they deserve all praise and exposure you give them.
Moment I saw the state of the radiator I figured something had gouged up the underside. Of course easy to diagnose from the sofa when you have the video title as your guide.
Really Rob! Come on you were fully aware and bought it for nixies, nobody can be that silly can they, particularly one who’s been around in the business as long as your good self!
Got it for nixies what planet are you on this car was a lot of money many thousands of pounds so why make a silly comment like that if I had known I would have offered less clearly
Hi rob will be a nice car when done keep the original autobox with car as its coded to the car@@sruk
I'm surprised the owner didn't realise the engine was seized, but got to give the benefit of the doubt, and very good luck sourcing a replacement. Reclamet saves the day
he must of cleaned the massive oil-slick off his driveway before you got there...
[oil leaks out of damaged engines for months]
good job you are a lucky boy...
keep up the excellent work chaps
In a recovery yard
Unbelievably good fortune with that engine so quickly. Tremendous. Well done gentlemen.
The car was registered in March 2019 according to your check, but it had the crash in November 2022 with no MOT recorded, which is probably explainable but to me it looks like the car had no MOT at the time of the accident.
The previous keeper knew full well that motor was seized. With a hole in the sump that big it would have dumped it’s oil in a matter of seconds and probably whilst travelling at some speed. 😔
It was sat in a recovery yard for a month and no he didn’t know
@@sruk oh really Rob, then I stand corrected.
Having dealt with the public for decades and read some comments, don't forget Hanlon's razor "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity"
Can we all take a moment to appreciate Robs (really) white trainers and how they stay so clean 😂😂
Another good video under your belt chaps
Rob buys far more winners than losers to keep Chris busy. Unlucky this time. What a nice partnership on mutual respect.
The owner of that did you up like a kipper.
Don’t be daft like I say time and time again they are all a risk and we will be ok with this
Your positive attitudes just always blows my mind. 😀😀😀
Thought I could see oil staining under the car at the beginning of the video
Just over 1 minute into the video Rob is filming the front end.. I think a pool of oil can be seen on the drive.
In future when you go to purchase salvage take a socket set check if it turns over before buying
Sad that someone sold you guys that like that. They knew the engine was seized. What comes around goes around for them.
They didn’t bud and it was a bargain
So i think the large oil puddle underneath the car at the house told it all really and they must have known about the engine but just my opinion,hope you got this one cheap as looks alot of work,Rob made ne laugh as they was both looking underneath he was pointing out even more damage to try and lighten the mood🤔🙈🤣🤣hope youve had a god weekend guys👍
They stitched you up like a kipper lads
Reclamet to the rescue again. You were meant to get that car and repair it. Yes you have had to buy the engine and gearbox. I think I would leave the two together in case the other gearbox was damaged in some way. Await the updates on this. Good Luck Rob and Chris. By the way why have you not brought a bigger recovery truck as more and more of what you buy are a lot heavier than the current transporter can deal with?
WOW. You two are so clever and being brilliant at recycling car's which is great. I love watching your videos. So fantastic. Hope you both had a lovely Easter. Take care.
So lucky they had another car in stock with the same engine, looking forward to seeing this car come together 😊
What a coincidence eh 👍
Reclamet to the rescue indeed,they certainly saved this build ,cheers guys ,looking forward to this one 👍💪😉
Can't wait to see this one. That's the gamble you take but great result. I made sure I watched all the ads, as I thought you may need the extra pennies. But reclamet came to the rescue!
Yes even when it rains , The sun will come out for you guys.
Not sure if anyone has said yet but keep your gearbox lads. It will be coded to the car and have component protection.
You could swap mechatronic unit over but if your box is fine then keep that.
Original gearbox will almost certainly be coded to the car
Top quality company, really sorted you guys out there, it's nice to see that there is still some decent firms out there, looking forward to the next video on it and reckon it's gonna be a cracking little motor
Just saw you at the stag meet today, was going to say high but you was with your friends so thought I’d not disturb your morning
Always say hello 🙋♂️
Wow, Reclamet certainly saved the day with this one!! I cannot wait for the next few videos on this vehicle - as always it should be some excellent content. Well done Rod and Chris! 😊
Fair play for taking on that kind of damage!
What a touch getting the engine and bits from reclamet 😁😎🤩
Didnt you see the pool of oil under the car on its drive noticed it straight away
Ouch that’s taken a whack. Good luck with it. Lovely car all fixed up.
Lol
Blimey guys, didn't think for a minute you were gonna pull back on this one, top effort - it's definitely going to make for a great come back video!!! 👏
What a touch from reclaimat. That's a big lump of an engine. Think you saved a fortune in just gaskets and auxillary stuff. Keeping the box and engine together sounds like a better plan.
I am glad you found that replacement engine so soon amongst other components.At the start of the video and midway,I thought you were going to sell it as a donor car inorder to get your money back.Looking foward to see the next video on this project.
Great Video, Rob. Thanks so much.
I ran into the problem with an A5 1.8 TFSi Black Edition from that place beginning with C, it had a plastic sump which had been cracked and then ran until it seized solid. I did rebuild the engine and fitted a steel sump and my Daughter is still driving it and loves it.
Finding a donor vehicle exactly the same, including the colour, plus with less miles. What are the chances? Absolutely brilliant. Top work. 👍
You lads dodged a bullet there. Just shows the "risks" in buying salvaged cars but I wonder whether the previous keeper gave you the full story.
Good luck guys, hope it goes well from now on.
Love the way you guys never swore and took engine situation on the chin! Looking forward to seeing how you progress with this one. Good luck!
What a result, cant wait to see this finished, well done lads 👏
Happened to me ,, gutted I was , ,thanks for sharing your mishaps,, all part of the journey
Fantastic recovery, you guys are the best and I'm sure everyone loves watching you guys. Looking forward to the next one 😀
Reclamet saves the day going to be stunning when complete 👌👌👌
Brilliant content, now this is why I love the channel. Keep up the good work lads.
At the beginning of this was that an oil puddle on the drive?
Talk about coming up smelling roses !!!! Brillant end to a disastrous start ! ......love it ! Well done Guys 💕
Glad you’re going ahead with the repair and engine replacement. Looking forward to the videos
Another great video. And despite the unexpected damage a great car to save
You boys always see the best in people and your end up pulling out the bag good luck with this project 👏
I know its horrible for you when you get one like this but its really interesting for us when you repair it though Rob!
“that looks beautiful “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Rob got his rose tinted glasses on 🤣🤣🤣
Great video guys looking forward to seeing it repaired 🙏🙏
Well done lads! always a positive in every negative and you had a touch of look there! looking forwards to this series .
Hey Rob, nip back to Turkey and get yer eyes done next 😂. 🤓. 👍
Rollercoaster episode, supply chain comes through! Great stuff to watch coming up. 👍🇬🇧😎
Appreciate your positivity as ever - that's the way to get it fixed. Wondered if Reclamet had any non-Copart salvage vehicles you could economically buy/fix?
I see oil on the drive straight away thought you was going to get on your knees and have a look rob
Ohh well good luck and onwards and upwards 👍🏻
I think you can see the oil on the ground at 1,06
They knew the car had been running without oil I reckon.
sat in a puddle of oil on the drive with 2 patches of absorbent beads
Hi Rob and Chris, wow, that couldn't have worked out any better. Gonna enjoy following this rebuild. Alex.
Yet again BRILLIANT lads. happy Easter.
Nice one guys, thank god for Reclamet!, now you can put that jig-saw back together! 😉
Awesome video thanks lads very much appreciated top job top team 🇬🇧
Great video 📹 as usual fellas I am glad to see 👀 that you got the main parts for this one that's the best thing about you and Chris you are not afraid of taking a gamble and the hard graft that comes along with the motor's you buy. Take care and stay lucky and healthy 👍 looking forward to Wednesday's video 📹 already 😊 ❤
Cheers to Reclimet for the save and allowing the filming again.
One minute down the next up that was so lucky finding that other q5 looking forward to seeing the next video 👍
Hi Rob And Chris great video what a lovely car but like you said you can not win them all it’s great to see you got the engine with all the bits someone was looking down on you Rob Looking forward to seeing all the episodes 👏🏻👏🏻🫶🏻
Good luck witrh the Audi Q5 guys. Very lucky you found that engine and gear box with similar mileage.
Really looking forward to this - great channel chaps 👍🏼
Really pleased for you!
You guys are great to watch.
What a wreck, shame about the engine but what a result.
I think this one will come out ok
Happy Easter 🐣 guys I think these surprises on salvage rebuilds really makes your channel sit out at the top of the league 😊 Like Chris said a quarter panel fixes are awesome 👏🏻
Brilliant channel guys, Happy Easter 🙏🏻🇬🇧
Well done Reclamet!!! Saved the day again. You were dead lucky there guys. Look forward to the video trail.
How lucky you guys are, could have been alot worse, Chris is a legend at body work, look forward to the rear quarter repair
Very lucky to get it so fast looking forward to the rebuild on this one cheers guys
Excited to see this one develop further! 👍🏻
Nice car from a honest seller
If anyone can fix it you boys can! Looking forward to this series.
Good luck with this one guys! Great job getting that engine 😀😀
Guy's great attitude love it you stayed positive and they can't all be winners but I hope you don't have to many more problems because there is still a lot of man hours in that car.
Seems to have all worked out well despite that major setback so far.
Also don't forget transmission fluid was likely drained during the de-pollution.
Check levels before initial fire up.
Enjoyed that, great turnaround.
Great content as usual guys
Not quite what you expected, but you guys have turned it round with style. Brilliant.
Hello Rob and Chris, another project to work on .its had a tough bump but it can be done.how lucky that reclomet had a spare engine.it will be worth it in the end to having it running.
