My Lamborghini Countach QV has serious gearbox issues. Time to visit Iain Tyrrell's workshop

The gearbox on my Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV has recently got very noisy, so I took it to Iain Tyrrell's workshop to see what can be done to fix it.

That whole drive, I'll bet Iain was thinking "we really shouldn't be driving this at all"!

[@TranceF0rmation]

When he gets on it at 7:20 was so painful to watch... Harry: "It's always had that singing." Lian: "....Yeah." *Up Shift* Harry: "That one." *Lian groans and grits his teeth*

[@simonhaycocks]

I was thinking it myself! Please turn around and nurse it back i kept saying to myself but good ol' Harry, just keeps giving it a boot full 🤪

[@realMaverickBuckley]

I'm STUNNED Harry didn't know that the noise he 'likes' is the horrendous noise he wants rectified just at higher speeds🤣 Ian: 'It's the same noise actually'.

[@dakavanagh]

@@realMaverickBuckley Totally! My 2010 Audi makes a noise and I'm on it. I can't imagine having something that expensive and not paying attention to every noise. "we just wrapped it up so we wouldn't hear the noise"

[@johntheaccountant5594]

Makes you think that Harry is not exactly the most bright guy and definitely has no engineeering knowledge. I gather that his wealth was handed down from mummy and daddy but is in denial.

[@scottmcginley5071]

I would pay for a show with you two, even once a month or periodically. Just like this; unscripted, no agenda, no producers. Just test driving cars, examining them in the shop, and maybe the occasional road trip.

[@lionelhudds]

„I‘ve had 12 years of that just getting louder…“ Harry, I deeply admire your degree of relaxation when it comes about expensive noises in precious automobiles. Hats off!

[@tjroelsma]

Harry saying in a dead pan voice: "that's going to be pricey, isn't it?" says he's already accepted that he has to shell out a lot of pounds to get that gearbox fixed. And it doesn't seem to faze him at all.

[@1968spikey]

@@tjroelsma expense doesn't worry you when you are minted. ;)

[@tjroelsma]

@@1968spikey Not necessarily: I've seen a lot of guys who'll happily shell out a lot of money to drive a really expensive car but either can't or won't afford proper maintenance. Harry is obviously a serious petrol head and a collector and he knows what having and maintaining a fleet of cars means.

[@1968spikey]

@@tjroelsma but in this instance ance Harry can easily be classed as "rather wealthy" which does make all the difference. Most of the car e enthusiasts I know would dread a bill that was into 4 figures plus and it could easily spoil the fun of owning their chosen/dream car.

[@tjroelsma]

@@1968spikey Yes, but then those people's expectations weren't really based in reality. If you have to scrape together all your money to buy the cheapest and most trashed version of your dream car, then you'd have to expect having to shell out major money to get that car right again. But the same also goes for buying a decent high end sportscar: buying such a car is only the first step. Insurance and maintenance are two of the largest money pits with many a dream car, something a lot of people seem to ignore. If you manage to buy a high end Porsche, or a Lamborghini, Ferrari etc., maintenance will be very expensive. This is the reason many of these cars get sold at a certain age if the previous owner actually drove them regularly. Harry is a petrol head and obviously a fairly wealthy one. So he probably won't blink too much if the repair bill for this Countach ends up being say 20,000 pounds, because he already knows it might reach that figure even before he brought it in. Repairs on older supercars are by definition very expensive and a gearbox rebuild on this car is a very time-consuming repair.

[@gordonsimpson3235]

This was hilarious Harry. Iain's grimace as you hurled it down the road was a picture....he was actually shrinking down into the seat - clearly expecting the gearbox to grenade at any moment, whilst you bravely told him how many miles you have done in the car whilst listening to that racket! He had heard enough in the first 100 yards to want to hi-tail it back to the workshop. This will be a very interesting repair.

[@codyluka8355]

This could turn out to be an interesting video series. I'm glad I'm not paying the bill though!

This is one of the best videos I’ve seen in ages. Iain’s understatement whilst trying to gently convey the sense of urgency of the catastrophic failure that he fears is about to take place is absolutely priceless. The state of that gearbox oil is testament to the prudence of keeping the fluids fresh. Everyone worries about the engine oil but so many ignore the ‘box oil which endures a much tougher life. Harry’s boundless optimism in the face of the compelling evidence that the gearbox is about to lunch itself is great. Particularly enjoyed Iain questioning if the drain hole would be large enough to let all the shrapnel out. I think we are about the see, in all its glory, the reason that you need deep pockets to run these old, expensive and exotic cars. Good luck with it. Great viewing.

It's going to need a full gearbox rebuild as it already stands. Throwing that amount of grinding paste around is going to abraded if not completely eroded the case hardening on the gearwheels, worn the synchros and any of the rotating interfaces.

Tyrell's workshop is like a museum! It's huge! I wonder how many staff mechanics he has to service all those cars?

[@imaldon1]

Excellent episode. I want to hop into this restoration journey. I hope all goes well. This car is beautiful.

[@idesignyou...9257]

Wow one scary noise!!! Looking forward to seeing the outcome in the future upload!!! Great to see Harry and Iain side by side in a Countach and Iain's face expressions were priceless! lol

[@TheRichardmintern]

What a joy to watch. Thank you Harry and Ian.

[@MB-uw6eh]

Well, it will be expensive, but I think this car deserves a full restoration. Looking forward to more chapters. Amazing looking thing.

I can’t wait for this series. Going to be one of my favorites.

[@martinrockport2485]

Oooo... this is going to be interesting! looking forward to seeing that engine, box and diff coming out in one go...

[@g00dfeeling]

Iain and Harry look like the best friends spending some nice time together.

[@davidstuart4915]

which, with their wealth....they are

I love both of these guys channels watching from Los Angeles. Harry is very lucky to have a master mechanic to work on his cars.

If that's being happening for 12 years, that is one strong gearbox. They sure don't make them like they used to.

I had a truck like 12 years ago that had a major part (Carrier bearing) go out while I was in high school, but it went another 50k miles before said critical part finally gave out completely. I was in my early 20s when it finally gave up the ghost. I got used to the whine after a while, but the moment my truck sounded like a jetsons car, I knew it was coming quick.. Just didnt know it would take 6 hours to do it lol. But when it failed, It was a horrible experience. Truck shook like crazy at 55 MPH and wasnt much better at 30 the last 3 miles home.

Thoroughly looking forward to seeing a Countach rebuild with Metcalfe detail! What a treat.

[@themaltonmotorcompany5964]

Great video again Harry, two of our favourite channels… Harry’s garage & Tyrrell’s classic workshop! Brilliant!

[@williamtynan6484]

OMG … Harry still giving the beans to it whilst making that horrible noise ! Iian’s face was priceless!

[@VirtualGuth]

While reading the comments from those cringing over this sound or that reaction, I was thinking about how Harry always comes across as so incredibly genuine and transparent no matter what. This is precisely why I enjoy this channel as much as I do. Whether his experiences prove to be joyful, disappointing, or a bit of both, there is always a level of enthusiasm that comes across regardless of the value or the rarity of the vehicle featured. That's incredibly endearing in this day and age.

Seeing that GB oil was like seeing blood in a tissue after a cough; "That's not healthy!".

[@joepvandam2962]

The pictures of those 900 turbo’s back in the day are amazing. Please treat us to a Harry’s garage vid of you driving down Memory Lane in a 900 turbo.

[@yungnietzsche2302]

I love how excited Harry got about the tractor, i think his inner farmer wanted to take it for a spin out on a field somewhere!
