Thanks to Ticket Clinic for sponsoring this series!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
In the third episode of Car Trek series 6, AutoTempest takes a backseat to a new sponsor, Ticket Clinic, who instructs the guys to buy three cheap luxury cars. Ed, unsurprisingly shows up in a clapped-out yet extremely clean Mercedes-Benz S55 AMG. Freddy brings his million-mile Lexus LS400 that he bought from The Smoking Tire's Matt Farah for one dollar, and Tyler brings down the house (and the budget) with a 2013 Tesla Model S P85. They then have to find out what's wrong with them by subjecting them to an inspection by the Car Wizard.

The Lexus valve cover gaskets. The oil leak at the valve cover gaskets can be the result of at least three things. 1. Over pressurization of the crankcase due to excessive cylinder blow by. 2. Stuck pcv valve. 3. Bad valve cover gaskets. 1,000,000 miles would cause blow by. 25 plus years would cause degraded gaskets. Still have to admire a 1mil mile car that still runs and drives fairly well. Won't start..."you probably should just take it to a scrap yard". Best repair advice ever!

Loving this series!

[@arthuralford]

Notice it did not take much to get The Wizard to go along with Tavarish's prank. And then making it look like a totally stock Tesla yoke (almost). But the prize goes to Hoovie for his reaction and f-bomb because it is so perfect

Replacing the steering wheel is one of the few things he will be able to do and charge Tyler for it

[@bryduhbikeguy]

I didn't know Tyler even knew that word.He's so laid back most of the time.

I just purchased an 1996 ls400 this weekend. It’s my dream car, sometimes simple is better👌🏾😌

[@thunderbirdustin]

Love these series🙌🙌

[@Xx-VSM-xX]

This series is so well done. Reminds me so much of classic Top Gear with Jeremy, Richard, and James. And it's actually better than the current Top Gear TV show....well done guys

[@oldanslo]

Yes, just as fake.

Regarding the ABC suspension, I would just replace the one leaking strut, all the accumulators (including pulsation damper), the ABC filter, and inspect the ABC hoses for any chafing or damage in the transmission tunnel area. This should be doable for around $3000 USD by an independent mechanic, $2500 if you use a reman ABC strut from Arnott. Spend another $800 or so parts and labour doing valve cover gaskets, motor mounts, and transmission mount. The W220 should then be good to go for under $4k. You don’t need to replace everything on ABC if one part fails, it’s only an issue where continuing to drive with faulty parts can cause other parts to fail. You don’t need to replace the pump if it’s pumping fine and not making noise or leaking. You don’t need to replace struts if they’re damping fine and not leaking. Accumulators are an inexpensive wear item, so I would replace those, and a bad accumulator would be the cause of the warning light over bumps. I’ve owned two ABC-equipped CL classes, and love the suspension system. It handles way better than Airmatic. It’s not too bad to maintain either if you understand the system, keep on top of preventative maintenance, and fix little issues before they become big ones.

[@littlejackalo5326]

Yeah, $4k to fix the suspension alone. That doesn't cover the litany of other problems.

[@sultanqasim]

@@littlejackalo5326 No, I said $2500-3000 to fix the suspension depending on whether you use a new or aftermarket rebuilt strut to replace the leaking one. Valve cover gaskets, motor mounts, and the transmission mount are all simple repairs with relatively inexpensive parts, so I estimated an independent mechanic should be able to fix those around $800. Even if you need to replace a suspension bushing or two, the necessary repairs for the car to be reliable and comfortable transportation can be done for under $4k US. The M113 engine and 722.6 (5G-tronic) transmission are very reliable units. As for gizmos like massage seats and soft close doors, I don’t know if they work in this car, but the car will transport you just fine even if they’re broken.

[@Netherlands031]

Yeah or throw out the ABC parts and put in simple coil springs

My 98 avalon also had power steering pump leaks. The pump is below the alternator though so it just dripped onto the chassis. My mechanic fixed it, the hoses and belt for $600.

BTW about that Tesla's repairs: My experience with my EV and several PHEVs: the service centre always took several days to several weeks to even start diagnosing it since they are not allowed to touch the car at all. Only the qualified EV technician is allowed.

[@catfishcorner7116]

I’m really loving this season of Car Treck! But damm Freddy what you and the Wizard did to Tyler’s Tesla was downright dirty!🤦🐟
