PDQ Laserwash G5-S Car Wash - St Louis, 'The Hill' BP Station

[@church272003]

I enjoy your videos. I work on the maintenance department for a large car wash company in the Albany NY area. We have a mix of PDQ systems (4000's, G5, and 360's) The best system by far is the PDQ 360. If you are ever in the area, stop in, we have several touch free bays around the area.

[@erickwardwell962]

Love the hum (or the sound) of the zero degree nozzles

[@justin_wayne_elrod_jrod]

You got the best warsh lol

[@georgef551]

Similar to the "Pirate Wash" at Circle K in Fitchburg (MA), without a mirad of dryers, and $14 price tag.

[@Thestuffguy1]

Keep up the amazing videos!!

[@TheElevatorChannel]

Thanks!

I was thinking, "Well this is a lame warsh.", until about 4:00! Interesting how car warshes have changed over the years. No more brushes beating up your car, or rags. It looks like it did a good job of warshing you car. Yup...it warshed it pretty good. And by the by way... I shoulder surfed an employee of the st louis library once. He pushed the buttons, "B,1,B,3,B" and the, "B" lit up!!!! Needless to say i used this code for many months, sending the elevator to the basement, where the offices that were off limits to the public were, before they figured it out!!! lol Some elevators have secret codes. Can you add any input to this? And does the push and hold the floor and door closed button really work? Any tricks you can share?

[@bronsonplatter6180]

3:56 high pressure wash time.

[@SFCarWashChannel]

Notably, I might only have one local G5. The only other LaserWash near me is a 360 with the arm of a 4000. Supposedly, Car Wash Studios has many G5s in his area. Never really understood the appeal of the G5 when you could get the 360 instead.

[@mnsirens]

The G5 was around first, about 3 Years earlier in fact

[@sunshinesuds]

Great Video! Apparently all of us shall refer car washes to "Warshes" XD Anyway, If you want to see G5-S's, come to central florida! lol, they are on almost EVERY corner, so i'm sick of them cx. Also, The G5 is a completely different (And rare, because it was only produced >3 years) system from PDQ. This is a G5-S. The G5 is labeled "G5 Experience" on the bridge, and has a white arm, and a very over engineered pumping system if you want to know the difference lol.

[@TheElevatorChannel]

I wasn't aware that there was a difference. Fixed the title. Thanks for the info as always! And I'm not sure if I'm just having bad luck or if PDQ's sales tanked in Missouri after the Laserwash 4000 years. I don't see much of their modern equipment. Just a few Tandems and this thing out of about 70 locations that I've visited.

[@CrestwoodRocks]

PDQ's newest is a Pro Touch Icon. Out for a few years now

[@SapphireHerandez]

@@TheElevatorChannel i watched where you go to the turbo car wash where the high preasure rinse had probloms tipical pdq

[@BrendanHancock]

Great Video The Tri Foam Was Nice Coat

[@firealarmmadness6905]

There is a laser wash 360 at the best car wash right next to Walmart in Lake St.Louis mo. It also has a tandem. But go for the LaserWash 360.

[@connorerickson6239]

We have one at tidal wave some ware in Massachusetts and it does a great job! But it has blowers on the mashine

[@MrShomesomethin]

For best results, wash vehicle by hand completely. Use this as a maintenance wash 2-3 times per week. Do not leave bugs on for more than a day or two at most.

[@zmanifest]

UPDATE: This BP gas station and car wash is now gone forever, it was demolished and replaced with a Express Water Way Wash facility.

[@vinnieversaci452]

I hate laser wash G5 only does one high pressure wash as compared to the laser wash 4000 does two high pressure washes which to me you get a better clean with the laser wash 4000 as you do with the laser wash 4000 my opinion

[@mattdude]

Three years late but that’s actually dependent upon how the car wash operator programs the machine. If you go to multiple car wash places with the same machine you’ll see that none of them work the same. So in other words, a G5 can have a second high pressure wash typically after the tri foam if the operator sets it to do so.

[@Theskilletandlinkinparkfan]

We need more car wash videos 😢

[@jennseidler]

It was cool that the top dryer moves. Side to side

[@robertsmithshobbyproductions]

This BP Station and wash have been torn down and now a Waterway tunnel Carwash sits here

[@chaoszombie9995]

The way the high pressure nozzles rotate make it use more water... with out using more water!

[@Alarmo05221]

That pay machine R.I.P when it said “You have purchased the ultimate warsh” there is no sounder on the stop sign

[@gy1952]

I've never heard of a car wash that not only starts out from the back of your car but also going the other way too.

[@crazyboy72375]

i like the carwashs that are not bump trigger and sensor only cause i am not the best at getting on a rail unless i am flagged onto it

[@elevatordailies]

What is the difference between the G5 and a M5 car wash?

[@DeLuxeCarwashchannel]

a laserwash m5 starts in front and the laserwash g5-s starts in the back and plus g5-s's haves bigger arms than m5's do and plus the m5 looks a lot different than the g5-s accept for the signage

[@thecarwashelevatorfanatic7433]

The Elevator Daily and the G5-S has turbo Nozzles while the M5 doesn’t.

[@Alarmo05221]

Not to mention, the M5 has the speed of a 4000 while the G5 tries to go for a more efficient smooth setting

[@superlu1gi527]

No PDQ systems in Southeastern Pennsylvania. I wish there was one in my ares though. :(

[@thecarwashelevatorfanatic7433]

Super Lu1gi I can confirm that there is a PDQ LaserWash 360 at a Sheetz somewhere in Pennsylvania. I forgot where but I’ve actually Filmed it.

[@susquehannavalleyelevators]

There are some PDQ systems, a Tandem in Morgantown and I believe a Laserwash 360 in Lancaster

[@sub-account179]

Haven't you uploaded this before?

[@TheElevatorChannel]

I set the publish date incorrectly, so it went live for a few minutes last week. Sorry for any confusion.

[@hotelfan9936]

no!!, this is still new

[@sunshinesuds]

***** I Saw That! But I forgot to watch it and it dissapeared so i got confused LOL.

[@2600neo]

Lots of places knock a dollar off the wash price if you get gas. That's why it was $9

[@zachalderton2057]

i never been to ST. LOUIS

[@shawncapps7985]

I remembered about I said wash most people said warsh. LOL!

[@xellorfgaming]

It's obviously what they're called, right? Warshes? xD

[@pepsifan8504]

This is gone forever according to another video that the book car wash was torn down and a new car wash was built in it’s spot

[@ogam123]

Maybe you get a discount if you pay at the pump

[@zmanifest]

The pay station sounds like goofy. "You got the best warsh".

[@idkanynames6064]

In th e title you should have put car warsh

[@heathwave_aviation8629]

$3.33?? shit!! lol
