Looks like you run a great shop, Jamie. Looks like your crew are very happy to work for you. That’s awesome. How every shop should be.
Thank you! I have a great team 🤘
@@JamiesGarage1hey sir there is left and right vacuum line but there is one in the middle where does that one goo
Love the setup of this vid man, feels very organic and you can still learn a lot from it. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! This is so out of my normal content, I'm glad to hear you like it.
Nice to see the inside of your business and the people you work alongside / employee
Organic ! Whats with the ORGANIC all of the time ????
That was really a great “day in the life” video of the shop! I enjoyed and when the guys aren’t so shy around the camera I think it will be even more entertaining and of course informational!
Man I wish I had the money to ship my car to you for any maintenance. I'm from FL and up in NY now, love the work your team does. Torque to spec babyyyyy!
I actually really enjoyed that. I wouldn't complain if you did more of these
The W12 engine vacuum lines on the Bentley is a common problem. I’m a Bentley tech and you CAN do the job without dropping the engine. If you remove the steering rack, you can get the replacement line installed with a good slap of elbow grease. This only works with the original plastic lines though. The upgraded metals one will not fit with that method. Like you said, unfortunately you have to drop the engine
Wasn’t this issue fixed during this generation of the Continental? Or is it the next Gen (aka current one).
@@WHTMAN-ei7ik the current one has a updated design yes. They haven’t been around enough to really see how much longer they last, but it’s still an entirely different system. The first and second generation continentals both suffer from the brittle vacuum lines.
What year did Bentley resolve this vacuum line issue of needing the engine to be dropped
2014 for the flying Spur and 2013 for the GT...
please do more vids like this these are my favorite!
Great to see your team and the variety of cars and their issues you are addressing.
Haha the Five guys jokes never get old
More videos like this please!
The shop looks so organised and nice. I wish every shop was like this as some shops are not and give the automotive repair industry a bad name. I like this type of video because it is entertaining we get to see the amazing team you have, and it should take less time to edit than the more edited videos(I don't know if it does but if you could reply to this comment with the time it took I would be very grateful as I want to put more effort into my channel but don't know how much effort should be put into edititing). Sorry the comment is very long but I hope your business continues thriving and we continue to get amazing videos like this.
Love the format
i loved this video! Different topics and cars different issues amazing to see. Also you guys work great!
I'd love to see someone in this car pull up to the auto parts store and ask the employees to change it. LOL. Or a Mercedes ML with the battery under the passenger seat. 😂
Great format, excellent to see the whole team and the range cars.
Really enjoyed it. Great Boss, great Team, great Shop!
There was something sooo soothing about watching this! I love this type of videos Jamie 👏👍
This format is perfectly fine. Keep the videos rolling! 🎉
Love the video mate. A longer style like this would be really cool! Love from the UK
What a great team you have!
Nice format, I like the spontaneous aspect of it, gives a good idea of the nice ambiance in your shop, congrats!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great style of video, keep up the great content
Hell of an owner!!! Amazing shop!! A wonderfully run business.
Love the video and format!
Great video, lots of fun content, a little deep dive here and there and of course the great crew inspired by the DUDE.
I can see discovery turbo running some programmes on this garage 👍🏻 love the format
Love this style of video. Great work. 👍 Matt
Thanks Matt!
I dig this format tbh 🤙
Great video
Nice video! Thanks for making them!
Great episode and catch up.
Love this style video
More videos like this please
I like the day in the life sort of videos.
Really like the live format of displaying your shop! I am one of your new customers and I am glad to have a look behind the curtains! Larry Venice,FL
Thank you for your business and thanks for watching! 🤘
Nice team !!!
hey guys, nice video, nice shop and cool crew! correct me if I'm wrong but I was informed that only bentleys before 2008 had the problem with lowering the engine/trans to service the vac lines....after that year the lines where relocated.
Cool work environment!
We have a great culture with a great group if guys.
I think I’d be looking at splicing some new ends onto those tubes. Sure it’s not a factory fix, but if the customer is ok with it there’s some huge savings. If it doesn’t work you’re out $30 in parts and a couple hours. As a customer I think I would appreciate the option. If it was my car I’d be DIY fixing it like that for sure.
Hello bro i love your all videos 😅😅❤️❤️
Wish we was closer. My Benz needs some love.
I do like it
Great shop, you own a bently and yet your going to leave the repair for now, that had me laughing, 👌👌👍👍
When are we getting the video about you retrofitting the F80 M4 seats? I’ve been eager to see it before I pull the trigger on a set! Love the videos!
I know, I know… It’s been so long now, I have to figure out the wiring again. 🤦♂️
I'm big fan of your videos sir. Can you name the diagnosis software you use or OBD software
Great video. Love the format. I watch all of your videos. That Bentley is no joke. Do you work on 911’s?
Yes we do! We have a 991 turbo S here now.
I want ask you had a miss fire codes too??? I changed in denso sparks and after this I have miss fire code, and I check I have vacuume pipe leak too, this codes can cause from vacuum pipe leak? Or is the denso spark because didn't find ngk to add
Fixing Bentley with tape. Great owner.
Good to see the shop and everyone pretending to get on when the camera comes out; keeping a mixture of "this process/job" and heavily edited and informal "day in the shop" kind of videos should make for a nice balance. I can 100% see why someone made a best effort repair on those vac lines, hopefully that wasn't done under Bentley warranty!
Liked the video so much that I’m now hungry for tacos!
They’re so good! 😋
Was that causing his brake assist pump to keep coming on ?
I love what we do.
Might be wrong but couldn't you try and use a finger trap around the old line and put it through or is that just bad idea?
Could you please show us what methods you use and have to removing broken seized bolts snapped in the diesel injector department. I have 3 bolts and well a lot has failed. Reverse thread - JB weld - partial welding. The size bolt in question is 6mm thick. 1 cm below the deck line and inside the head. Ali head to be more precise. Steel bolts too.
I haven’t had that exact issue before but I like the welding method. Add weld to the broken bolt until it reaches the top of the deck then put a nut on it and fill it with weld too. Let it cool down, work it back and forth until it comes free. Good luck!
Make more of these videos
Did i miss simething on the Golf GTI? The pads looked like they had alot of meat left, but maybe its just me who could not see if it was worn down.
Dang....I was under the impression that the 2008+ Gt's didnt require an engine drop to fix the notorious vac leaks. Do you guys work on Land Rovers? I have a 2016 V8SC that is making some ticking noise when cold. Might be timing chain tensionors or SC snout coupler.
CT1 make a sealant we use in plumbing that is incredible effective, probably better than new. Costs £11 a tube and would have permanently fixed this
Surprisingly I really enjoyed this format, unscripted is fun sometimes. Was cool to see the shop and the guys. Sucks about the Bentley though. Engineers and penny pinchers have little regard for repair feasibility down the road. (see what I did there?)
Thank you! It was fun and I think the guys enjoyed it too.
"This road has been under construction for a long time and is hurting these guy's business, so I try to support them" Proceeds to walk up to a food truck ON WHEELS 🤔 If only there were some way to relocate said business to a busier location 🤔 🤣 Good on you for supporting local businesses (and yes I get they probably own the actual restaurant behind the truck too)
That’s a good point. Lol. I actually talked to them about that but they have to have a permit to set up at a certain location. I’d imagine it’s a pain to get a permit for another location plus cost.
Can the vacuum line be repaired with adhesive lined heat shrink tubing?
That would be a better temporary fix than electrical tape
Notification Squad!🔥🔥🔥
can someone help me about 2013 bentley continental gt v8 problem? car is damaged to passenger rear end side directly into the battery. key is stuck in ignition cant open the trunk either. i need to be able to take the key out of ignition and be able to put into neutral gear any advice?
Led lenser head torches are worth investing in..... lol....
If the guy doesn’t want to replace the lines just cut 3-4 inches back and use joint and connect another same size hose
Nice VW
Nip the broken ends of the hose off and add extensions. Two hours labor.
I'm mechanic I fix this job New vaccum hose replace This hose going on back to steering rack. I remove the engine also.
I know it's a Bentley and I'm not one to splice shit, but I'd splice in two little sections of new plastic line lol and tell that kid to get off his phone.
Can’t you replace just the end of those connectors like using a plastic repair kit would save some time and money to the customer
Unfortunately I don’t know of a permanent repair except to replace with new.
In a pinch heat shrink tubing with the glue inside works worlds better than tape.
I subscribed just cause you bought tacos.
Yeah, you guys definitely run a great shop from what I can see Jesus Christ though amount of work to replace some evaporative lines
You don’t have to lower the engine to replace those lines. Just remove the steering rack.
Why can you not slide metal sleeves over split plastic,with bonding, and re-tape Much cheaper and just as good a job.Worked for mine !!!!!
No, you did NOT change the time on the clock to show that for the smoke test. I am certain of that.
Electrical tape to fix a Bentley…
Isn't it an honer a Bentley owner selected your shop to perform a repair on this car?
Come on. You mean you don’t have any JB weld in your shop? 😄
😂
George Russell working on R32? Of course he is a Merc guy!
😂
Disconnecting an engine for a vacuum hose? Geeez!
Labor 3 days thats 8 x 3 @shop cost +parts ? Definitely 7k+ for that job.. phug that😂 ill stick to Kia 100k or 10 years warranty sounds wonderful 😅
You found the problem when you saw the hood ornament.
Great video. This Bentley is not having a bright future with this owner. Another expensive repair estimate and he will pass it on to somebody who will pass it on and down it goes. The fate of many of these luxury cars that just require owners with deep pockets and lots of enthusiasm
vehicles will never be made this way again - it'll be like watching steam locomotive maintenance .
bentley is a Volkswagen !
Bentley, Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Lamborghini Aston Martin etc… look great but you would be shocked to see the basic parts and material used! Expensive doesn’t mean quality, Ya thanks BMW😡!
It’s basically owners fault for stuff like that to happen, the tires on that Bentley looked so bad & Florida heat I bet that engine never cooled down for weeks
Back to back first comment ❤
Nice! 🤘
Typical customer, buys a high end Bentley, then won't spend the money to fix it when it breaks!
are you looking for extra employees?
We’re always taking applications. Currently hiring 2 more employees 🤘
Gee I wonder why they put tape on it? Could it be that they did not want to pay to drop an engine to replace a stupid airline? Is it smart to buy a Volkswagen any Volkswagen that's Porsche included they're all like that made with cheap parts even though you're paying for expensive part s
I still don’t trust no mechanic lol
Another case of too poor to drive a Bentley 😂
ok video ( No Bentley for me) Thanks
