That battery compartment also houses the front Signal Acquisition Module which controls exterior electronics like the headlights and various bits and bobs. When the sunroof drains clog, water runs back into the cabin and fills that compartment, usually corroding the SAM PCB. So pull out the battery and look for water down there. The SAMs aren't cheap but may be salvageable.
im a novice benz mechanic, just worked on this exact car last month but with the 450 engine. i think this car is probably a good deal but i dont know how much a new SAM costs
You gotta get that ML500 Randy!!!! $950 buy it now is an amazing deal. That motor will last a lifetime and I'm sure you can work out the suspension gremlins!
Randy, I think you should get that. That's a pretty good deal. Just buy it now if Mike wants it. Sell it to him for what you bought it for it's a win-win. Love, you guys do more shows together. Cause when you guys get together. I say it all the time. I love it
Wow I haven't seen a Mazda Protege on the road for a long time now. We had a 2001 but sold it in 2012 because the entire undercarriage was rotten with rust. We couldn't even safely jack it up for an oil change and had to go to those quick lube places. It was a shame because that car was reliable and everything worked when we sold it for scrap.
Randy I think that you should get it now before someone else gets it that ML just runs very good if Mike decides that he wants it you can just sell it to him for what you paid for it and then you both will be happy and if he doesn't want it you will already have it
Randy I own a ML63 2008 518 hp. and I love it . its pretty quick for a heavy SUV . Parts are available but shop around for parts to get good prices . If you want a shop manual for All Mercedes Benz and Smart cars up to 2020 I have a extra on thumb drive . It is called W .I .S. put in your Vin. and it is specific for the Vehicle . Tell Monkey . I would jump on that ml500 the motors hold up well.
Hey Randy, decide your Copart walk around for this morning. It’s awesome dude just keep the content coming which I know you will so I didn’t know. I hope you have a good day. Talk to you later man
Keep up the grind Randy we love to see it! Keep it up! I’d personally stay away from the 07 ish Mercedes! Keep it up! ❤ and can we see more of “will it make home” type of videos?
I really hope one of you bought that ML. I wish we had that much choice at Copart Canada, or were allowed to public bid in any other province other than Alberta.
Hey Randy, yes there’s a lot of Carnage on the road. I have to be more careful than other people are driving 18 wheeler over the road some scary stuff sometimes keep up the great work.
Randy is loving the Benz 500ML....at less than a thousand bucks, it's a no-brainer....making it happen if MWM does not respond.....avoid the Audi , it's just a Fiat Abath...Randy is walking away from it...🎉😂
To see how long a car has been at Copart look at the last digit of the lot number it is the year it was picked up. The one you checked ended in a 2 sowas picked up in 2022.
M113 engine is hard to kill. The car will need everything else at 151K. But for $950, you might get your money back after you get everything working again DIY.
It would be nice in followup videos it we could learn the final sales price of all the cars you review. Maybe you don't have that info or maybe you don't want us to know?
Do it $950 is a major steal for that ML500 😊

You had one before or you a Benz mechanic. Is the donut tire the issue. Good for the money right

I learn a lot from this channel
You gotta get that ML500 Randy!!!! $950 buy it now is an amazing deal. That motor will last a lifetime and I'm sure you can work out the suspension gremlins!
Love starting my morning with a video from Randy💯

I would love to see that Chevy Volt come to the channel. They are great cars
Dude pick that ML up!!!
Great video Randy ❤❤❤

I use your videos anytime I need to sooth my soul; thank you Randy.
Monkey wrench Mike would like that ML
It’s almost too good. No rats and it starts, too easy 😂
That Mercedes runs and drives and for $950.00 buy it!!!👍😁
Buy that 500 Mercedes
That door rattle at 18:05 is exactly why I don't barn-door my or other people's car doors.
Great vid Rando!
Hello Randy. The Mercedes ML 500 is a good looking SUV. The 2016 Audi is a good looking car even though it's got a little front end damage.
That is a very nice Audi too.😊
That Mercedes ml is rear wheel drive. That's so awesome! I love rear wheel drive and hate front wheel drive
That A7 is pretty sick🔥 Please bring it to the channel.
At 8:10 did you check to see if the belt is missing that would explain no power steering an the battery light being on an no ac

Yes. Monte Carlo Dale Earnhardt or SS any day!!!
that was great Rebuilds, I really enjoyed it 👍
Hey Randy, decide your Copart walk around for this morning. It’s awesome dude just keep the content coming which I know you will so I didn’t know. I hope you have a good day. Talk to you later man
Get that Mustang for me man. That Ruby red is dope.
13:05 black Toyota Camry please take a look at it I'm very interested to see how bad it is
We had one of these ML back in the days, so many good memories with our 🥲…. Thanks for showing it Randy !!! Really good to see !!
The Mercedes looks promising. Can't beat the $950 for a car that runs and drive 😎😎👍👍
Keep up the grind Randy we love to see it! Keep it up! I’d personally stay away from the 07 ish Mercedes! Keep it up! ❤ and can we see more of “will it make home” type of videos?
I really hope one of you bought that ML. I wish we had that much choice at Copart Canada, or were allowed to public bid in any other province other than Alberta.
Early upload again? Great video as always! Have a great day!
Go for it, Randy. The ML needs some TLC
Hey you finally drove the ram!! It will be cool when you can drive the Monte Carlo!!!
Hey Randy! There is a bright blue Honda Civic Si at the 18:27 mark. Could you check that one out!? Thanks from Colorado!
Hey Randy, yes there’s a lot of Carnage on the road. I have to be more careful than other people are driving 18 wheeler over the road some scary stuff sometimes keep up the great work.
Good afternoon.Good to see you again.😊👍
Another great walkaround. I know it's smashed but I for one would like to see more of that C7!
Keep up good work and awesome video
Randy is loving the Benz 500ML....at less than a thousand bucks, it's a no-brainer....making it happen if MWM does not respond.....avoid the Audi , it's just a Fiat Abath...Randy is walking away from it...🎉😂
Great Coverage On This All Randy, The Mercedes Benz ML500 Or That Audi A7 3.0T Would Be Great For The Channel..
Buy it you can junk it for more if you want!!’
I think most front end damage is the fork lifts moving them around
Can you show that dump truck at the end of the video 👌
23:15 that mini school bus in the background. Would it be possible for you to look at it for me please? just curious lol
What did the 500 sell for
I think you should get the ML500 good price would make a good couple videos
Randy you have time show some similar buddy
I know how this sounds but.. you should try to find a saab 93 aero with the 2.8 in it. Surprisingly smooth and quick car.
If the Mercedes-Benz's battery terminals were tight then it should charge the battery properly 😊
Randy and Mike should do a game, set a budget of 2k and buy each other a car neither of you would expect
Decent looking f150 behind the mercedes
for sure. get that benz
Question, would ya rather have the ML500 or the 190D you looked at a while ago
P.S loving the vids keep up the good work 👌
Hey Randy! Thanks for showing the red Mustang GT at the 17 minute mark. Wish you could've tried to start it. Must've been really stinky.
To see how long a car has been at Copart look at the last digit of the lot number it is the year it was picked up. The one you checked ended in a 2 sowas picked up in 2022.
I am interested to see the merc ML500 in the channel
Definitely not a fan of Mercedes, but $950 plus fees seems like a no brainer.
Loved the color...didn't look like much "rebuilding" to do
23:25 white dodge charger on chrome rims probably 20 inches PLEASE INVESTIGATE
We had an 06 and an 07 ML. Both had so many electrical gremlins that they totally turned us away from Mercedes.
We just sold a 2010 ML550 AMG last week at my local auction for $3700
Red Honda tornado, maybe, but I didn't see any tree bark or other house debris
Buyy that ML ASAPP
ps is common air is also but i love mine parts are easy and not to exp if you meach easy to work on
Buy it
Hey Randy, I was you I would buy the non-running Mercedes for 950. Keep up the great work.
M113 engine is hard to kill. The car will need everything else at 151K. But for $950, you might get your money back after you get everything working again DIY.
this ml is such a goblin mine
Damn Randy. Can you turn down the what is going on intro. You raise my BP 🤣
It's gonna run
Was a good video.
this ml are great my dad boss had it and made me ride it one day it is good car
I'd buy it now
Oh wow hey now with the A/C fan ... In the Mercedes... lol.. hahaha 🤣💯
Be safe and careful.😊👍🙏
Yes get it
That Cruze was probably sitting on the side of the highway and got hit.
The A7 I can bet you it has a damaged radiator and condenser. On top of the damaged bumper, you are going to have your hands full on that Audi 😮😮😢😢
Check out that GMC that you just passed
Look at that Suzuki at 16:03 - might be a zippy little car
For $950, even with tax that’s a steal. I would be jumping all over that.
Buy it now
So it looks like you made two videos yesterday? Like the Benz. Don’t know about the Audi. I’d rescue that mustang.
It would be nice in followup videos it we could learn the final sales price of all the cars you review. Maybe you don't have that info or maybe you don't want us to know?
ML500 !
The ML550 has Monkey Wrench Mike name all over it since he's done couple of them earlier 2000s era tho probably use 07 Ml550 as a two rig
Hi Randy
ML 500 @ $950..buy it now!
Get it
Buy the ML now
You could fix her up and drive her for awhile and then send her on down the road.👍
Get ready to back out
That's a good motor in the ML500, but it's definitely a 2006. That's one year old model.
Buy the ML
Mercedes parts cost would scare me.
That's a Fiat 500 sport has red calipers in the sport
And the sport rims in the sport wing
monte carlo 5.3
We want the infinite Q50 In front of the Mercedes
You got no sound on your show
