Buy a trailer from Copart, so you can tow it yourself instead of having someone move your vehicle. That’s what I did, I saved so much money and you don't have to deal with the driver messing up your vehicles.
I don't think he goes to copart because some of them transport fees are high . He's buying from copart online from states around NC and paying for it to be transported from SC Virginia etc
@@BilalFlips Overall you doing good fam✊🏾! Yo vids helped me out when I started. I just didn’t want to run up the tab, to get a mf shady ass driver to deliver my car to my house or have it delivered to a mechanic shop.
Good to see you're back and killing it. Some advice: 1. Buy a multimeter and learn how to use it. On youtube, it's so easy. This can save you from scrapping a good battery where the problem lies elsewhere. Its like 10-20 bucks. 2. Buy a battery tester, same reasons as above. Also cheap. 3. With something small like changing the bulb is difficult due to a newer model year or different brand altogether. Get your phone out and search youtube/online. Like that bulb which is changeable form the front fender liner. 4. Protocol for cars with no dipstick. Turn on ignition (not engine start) and see if theres any prewarning about oil. Check underneath the car for oil leaks, and damage to engine sump. Usually we drain the oil and refill so we know there is oil in there. If you don't do the above you are risking starting an engine and seizing it, throwing thousands in the bin. If you dont want to do it from the drain plug below, get one of those oil vacuum machines. You can put the oil back in, if its good. All the above will add alot of money to your profits.
Just saying cause I work at advance auto, you can always just call and give your vin number and see if they have the piece instead of wasting time and money driving to 3 different stores
It literally says it in the screen mate, you should read it till the end. at 7:19 "The engine must be warm and TURNED OFF" you need to put the car in accessory/diagnostic mode then give it a try.
I’m surprised how many people don’t have AAA. It’s $68 and you get 4 tows a year up to 100 miles. You just paid $80 for 1 tow for only a couple miles. Crazy!
@@McDzy they don’t ask many questions. Just if you are the driver and what the issue is. Tire, gas, or won’t start so they know what to send. I used 3 tows in a week with them once. Also got towed about 100 miles before too. That was all when I was younger or in college. Saved me quite a bit!
P0300 is random misfire P0301 P0302 so on and so forth is misfire cylinder 1 misfire cylinder 2 Idk how replacing one fuel injector fixed the engine misfiring on all 4 cylinders
This was lowkey my first car I had back in high school 4 years and the amount of headache from oil to coolant leak having to be fix countless times, broken fuel line causing fuel to spray out from the hood, serpentine belt replace ( as a result of coolant leak speeding up its wear and tear) plus the 2-3 times I had to wait on the side of road waiting for a tow truck as a 17 years old . It was a good decision to get rid of it cost wise but deep down I still miss especially after watching this video😅
2.0T are good engines, if all the work has been done to them. Timing chains stretch around 100k miles and need to be replaced (new balance shaft chains and crank/cam chain with new guides), oil burning due to low tension oil control rings on the pistons which clog up (Needs complete teardown to replace pistons to revision DM pistons), PCV diaphragms tear and cause even more excessive oil burning (easy 10min job though), and underboost codes due to bad wastegate. If the chains and new pistons have been done, the 2.0T Gen 2 is a great engine, unfortunately its let down by these two major problems, especially the chains which can completely total the engine if it jumps timing. You can check if chain is stretched by going into the ECU, and checking the live data for "Camshaft phase adaptation, bank 1". If its more than 5 degrees, replace it. 6.84 degrees is about 3/4 of a tooth stretched and it definitely needs to be replaced. Also a dipstick can be purchased for about $15 from amazon and be put into the tube where you pulled that black nub out. My 2013 A4 allroad 2.0T made it to 165k before I was t-boned. I did chains and was about to remove the engine to replace pistons to fix oil burning (I was burning 1qt/900 miles right before car was totaled). To start the car, since it has the "Push to Start" button, you don't actually have to put the key into the key slot on the dash. You can start the car by getting in with key in your pocket and pressing the Push to Start. As a backup (and for lower trim cars without push to start), you can put your foot on the brake and push the key fob into the key slot all the way down to start the car.
@@gallitoalargado Timing chains, all in with OEM parts and the timing tools, was about $550 - $600. The pistons, if you can pull the engine yourself (this is a longitudinally mounted 4-cylinder, so its pretty easy) is about $1,400 with revision DM piston. Is it annoying, most certainly, but if you've done a decent amount of DIY work, this engine can be fixed up for cheap.
@@gallitoalargado Because the S2000 isn't a luxury sedan, its a mini sports car. They're completely different market segments. I doubt anyone who is looking at an A4 is cross-shopping with an S2000.
You don’t need a dib stick anymore cause you can tell it has dirty oil from the drip on the ground, you now need to change oil. Also some advice call the shops for the parts you need instead of wasting gas for disappointment lol 😂 love your channel tho
Nice job on the flip! How come you never include the DMV fees? I’m in Cali n I bought from IAA which is like Copart. I needed a CHP inspection and got raped with DMV fees to register it before I could sale it.
@@BilalFlips I mean that’s kinda misleading bro, flipping for you is $$$, but not for the average Joe that isn’t a dealer and is forced to pay DMV fees.
California is no good for flipping. lots of inspections and fees and taxes and notaries and bill of sale and blahblah that get in the way of the common man. Move from that god forsaken state
@@mohamedbenabdelmentalebthat is nothing but a rumor. My work truck cost more for parts than my merc. Name one part on a 2018 e450 that cost more than the same part in a 17’ gmc Denali. I’ll be waiting… rotors on truck $128.99 ea(did them last week), rotors on merc were less than $85/ea last time I did them. Hell let’s go to the extreme here, brand new replacement engine on the e450 is $7,899+ install straight from Mercedes. Replacement duramax for my truck is $16,500 for a USED “remanned” aka rebuilt engine. As for install cost, haven’t looked into it but I’d assume my truck cost about double as the cab has to come off the frame.
@@PitManenuver it is not a rumor, i am generally talking about keys and especially all keys lost for euro, for example 2015+ mercedes locksmith cannot add key since its a fbs4 system, the only way out is to get a copy made or tow it to the dealership which the key is around 800-1100 depending on if its a prox or non-prox fobik. I hope you get my point of euro cars being quite expensive on keys and programming. You are a mechanic i am guessing, i dont know too much in that category so dont have anything to say about it.
Yeah that's one thing I do t like about my audi no dipstick and also no tire pressure numbers it only alerts you when the pressure is off but you need to have a gauge to check
@@BilalFlips yeah I know because they want all the maintenance money.. I think audi might be higher than both mercedes and bimmer as far as labor hrs.. but it's the most fun car I've ever owned.. and I've had 1 s class and 3 7 series... nightmares
What app or platform do you use when you break everything down prices and time with the car, I use regular excel sheet but I like how you can add the picture of the car in the bottom.

Good point, I’ll keep that in mind thank you
Exactly, I never randomly drive to part stores without calling and verifying if they have the part first 😂😂😂
you always suppose to change oil before turning it on if you don't know how long it's been sitting for
OR AT LEAST CHEK IT ON THE CLUSTER BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE!! They also make an aftermarket dipstick that you can buy.
As long as the car has oil your good for small distances
