Hello. Few things hopefully helpful; 1. That whine from the front is the electrohydraulic power steering pump. 2. On many cars going between 2 panels going from front to back the front one is slightly over flush to prevent whistling and buffeting as air flows over it at speed. (Probs not your case though as that's quite bad) 3. The door window won't go up on its own when lockin if previously open in case you want to leave a dog or a child inside or disconnect the battery. Same in any car really. 4. You can clean your alcantara with a brush a suitable product & wipe off first with a wet then a dry towel. What seems like wear is just dirt and oils from your hand clogging and compacting the fibers. It's very hard wearing actually. You'll clean it and it will be like new (for a short while, not a great option for a daily 🙃) Enjoy!

[@josteinholen1312]

All great points! Very true about the alcantara. Most people have no clue about detaling. I once saw a video where the son of a 100M+ guy in California had been told by his father to wash his Hyuara with dish soap in direct sunlight. Point is that, just because you have an expensive car it dosen't mean you know how to take care of it.

Anyone else come for the faces uncle benjy pulls when Lee is booting it 😂

[@adamwarburton5572]

Dam right for a top bunch of fellas to be such pussies in a car is brilliant. 🤣

[@ianreadman]

The whine is definitely the accumulators, so you called it correctly in your vid (although you called them actuators). They fail on almost all 720s, seals leak, hydraulic pressure reduces, which leads to a harsher ride, stiffer steering and eventually issues with the rear wing not functioning correctly. Mclaren saying it's "normal" is BS, they don't make any noise when they are in good shape. Also be aware that Mclaren removed accumulator replacement from their extended warranty a couple of years back and it's a 5-6k job to have them replaced :( I had to do this on my 675LT and they refused the warranty claim, stating accumulators are no longer considered a mechanical component. Good old Mclaren, love em...hate em!!! Enjoyed the content...

[@EVILGT]

Thanks for the info, especially on the warranty, you can still hear the accumulators over the exhaust now, and the exhaust is ridiculously loud! 😂 Also, the windscreen has cracked (another common known issue), but that isn't covered under the warranty either (£4k to replace) 😂

[@ianreadman]

​@@EVILGT Sheesh, sorry mate, yes windscreens are def another issue on the Spiders. Also get some Sonax Alcantara foam cleaner for the steering wheel, it's magic and with a little patience you'll get it looking brand new. A lot cheaper than 3k for a new wheel!!! ;)

[@cp4512]

Depreciation is horrific on McKarens too. Glad you bought 2nd hand so the first owner took the biggest hit!

[@jondavies1593]

I can't tell the McLarens apart. However, the more you walk round the car the more curves you see and realise its a really good looking car despite some of the panel gaps being a bit " TVR ". As you say though Lee, you forgive it all the quirks as soon as you drive it

[@deadprivacy]

Engines are shyte too. Many corners cut....like despicable stuff. Theres compnaoes make a fortune tearing mclaren blocks apart and rebuilding them so they just work.

[@omg_720s]

In my experience, it seems some cars are so much better put together than others (and I believe it's more a case of who was on shift at the time rather than the year the car was built 😂). My 720 has been faultless and there's nothing out there for the price that can give me that bonkers performance! 🤪

[@Sean-if7rp]

No whine?

[@omg_720s]

@@Sean-if7rp no whine although my car has V-Engineering's rechargable accumulators so that's possibly why 🤷‍♂️

Pissing myself. Brilliant.......think i said that already.......brilliant. nice to see the subscribers going up.

[@EVILGT]

Thanks Stue 🙏

[@DjNikGnashers]

I'll tell you another thing I hate about that McLaren 720S, the fact I can't afford one. I see this car as something you would only buy if you really loved it. I love it personally, but if I was buying something this expensive with my sensible head on, and not my emotional head, I would simply have to buy a 911 Turbo S. The usability, reliability, practicality, just stands above anything else in it's price range. But you don't buy cars like this with a sensible head on do you :-))

[@EVILGT]

Absolutely not no 😂👌🏼

[@W00LFY100]

That noise at 13:08 is like a wild animal. Looks like you'd struggle to go full throttle on them roads 🤯

[@goldmax3352]

If you want a mini supercar experience but for less money then consider an Alfa 4C, it turns heads as much as these supercars for a fraction of the cost, around £50k now but worth it. They sound nice too, and I'm getting 42 mpg on longer journeys, easy to maintain, services aren't too expensive and they are pretty rare. I do like Mclarens though, just can't stretch to it yet.

[@mzivtins]

These problems are common on 720s'. The earlier mclarens are built with a lot more attention to detail. All of the parts you point out are normally aligned as part of the factory compliance checks when the car certificate is issued. You will never see a 12c, 650s, 675lt with these problems.

[@SeanyHardy]

Lovely looking car but shame about the production issues. Haha love Uncle Benji’s face when accelerating 😂

[@tombainbridge5406]

Would love to see you both start a Warrington Wheeler Dealers. Put a ramp in Lee's Garage and do all the work yourselves. Buy something that needs loads of work like a BMW M3. Lee on mechanical and Ben on bodywork. Learn us all how to fix cars

[@EVILGT]

Thanks we are looking to do something like that for 2023 👌

[@edsims719]

I have a 2021 720S with no front noise, no panel gaps, etc. No problems. Amazing car.

[@EVILGT]

Very lucky 🍀

[@AndrewTSq]

If you do not dislike one thing about a car you own, then you are not passionate about it. I like the car. Really sticks out in green :)

[@davidm793]

High pitched whine (and not my passenger)….. suspension actuator. Same on mine and can’t hear inside at all

[@kinosgarage]

Body panel gaps are inherent traits from a very rigid carbon tub chassis car with super light weight parts. Mine were adjusted in a few minutes by the dealer. High pitch is from the suspension pump. It’s getting all the fluids ready to circulate through the accumulators and steering box. Maybe try a 488, it’s quieter and more “plush” This is what you get when you buy a super light weight super car with best performance in its class.

[@EVILGT]

488 is too soft to look at and has just as many problems if not the same as the McLaren tbh 🤔

[@kinosgarage]

@@EVILGT of course… it was just my way of saying what you said without directly saying it. The 488 has no soul in comparison to the 458 or 720s.

[@scalecrawlnl]

Thank you very much for the video! Kudos to Lee calmly explaining the particular Q&F of this car. Would drive me up the wall, but who am I, peddling away here on my bicycle! Like 755 and😊✌

[@Lukew28]

Great channel 👍👍 Just curious but where can you get the 720s 4th service for £800? I’ve been quoted £1420-1650 from three Mac dealers, mines 2019 too. Btw the window only drops that far if you hold onto the button for too long, if you open/close the door normally it only drops an inch but raises after the door has soft closed, it won’t raise if it’s dropped too far though

[@EVILGT]

That’s what I was told my next service was gonna cost. Mone just drops when you open the door, don’t have to press the key fob, it’s random 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@dannyauto5901]

Great episode lads, bloopers are boss, love you two😁👌❤️❤️

[@andrewoliver3723]

[@Nathan_R32]

Great video as always lads. I definitely feel if I could afford a McLaren then I could put up with those panel gaps for the performance the car gives back. As for the noisy suspension canisters is there nothing you can put over them like a “sock” type item to conceal the noise abit more?

[@EVILGT]

As far as I’m aware the service centre suggested a jacket type thing but McLaren weren’t too keen on the idea.

[@itc9251]

I have a 600lt spider with not a single panel gap issue they all line up perfectly. It does however rattle and squeak , the mirror shakes like mad . But that all goes away when your on the open road great cars indeed

[@EVILGT]

🔥🔥🔥

[@jameswillard1]

Are the rattles and squeaks from the top mechanism? Because Mclaren Carbon Tub construction is super rigid, most cars that have creaks and rattles (particularly open topped cars) is primarily because of body flex

When it comes to panel gaps you can get them adjusted so they align properly. Just don't go to Mclaren because they'll take a month and charge you a small fortune for something they should have done right in the first place.

[@XXxknobxxXX]

alcantara is super durable and easy to clean, firm brush, all purpose cleaner and a micro fibre cloth and it should come back up brand new, my AMG wheel clean up like new. Plenty of video on KZbin showing you what to do 👌
