Going WAY OVERBUDGET on my Cheap Audi S5 V8 after the Car Ninja finds MORE ISSUES
**A Garage Tour and the Adventures That Follow**
I'm sure so okay you're taking a risk but you know if uh if if all else fails you have YouTube content if it breaks that I can't lose well actually I lose or you could win both ways apparently anyway I'm very confused by your business model but anyway I guess somebody has to make money. Oh, thanks so much to our garage for the tour.
I'm just now getting outside of Phoenix here in the beautiful Arizona desert and mountains right as the sun's going down so it's about a 15 hour drive a thousand miles I basically have a lounge back there that I can recline in and sleep when I feel tired and the Maybach behaves when we get home without an issue. And check on the car, Ninja foreign, 10 hours into this trip my Mark's doing great; I am beat though it's about four in the morning so I'm gonna get back here in well basically my rolling hotel room and sleep here in the middle of nowhere Texas in a rest stop.
So, anyway when I wake up I'll be a few hours from home and we'll go check on the S5 see if it's done. Ninja you're doing the thumbs up again; it's awesome so you're actually happy with this very very very uh a lot more than we thought obviously the carbon cleaning had to happen that helped a lot and then the valve cover gaskets but uh overall this clutch feel good feels awesome.
Yeah, let's take a look. Whoa look who's here what's going on well picking up my S5 I'm just trying to this smells like burning oil; I was trying to burn down Johnny shop oh you're trying to bust a nut loose yeah it won't come off yeah we've been trying for a little while here and now we got some heat on it so I guess we'll find out how far out of alignment is it. Oh, far enough to mess with in reality and this one's actually The Supercharged Frontier; it is you've been getting some video traction out of this thing yeah people like this yeah kind of an interesting truck.
Anyway, back to the Audi; yes bye slight distraction but together all back together not leaking not leaking no missing screws no nothing no lights that need to be turned off and refined no no warning lights so yeah just a little bit over budget though yeah because we had the valve cover gaskets the oil change wasn't included the decarbonization just a little bit sorry it's it's uh it's way worthy though.
Well, the way it drives is you're gonna like it; Focus can I drive it yeah all right do I need to pay you first? It doesn't matter yeah and actually if you want an in-depth thing on the Walnut carbon cleaning it's crushed walnuts right yeah you can check out the Carnage's Channel he did post a video on it; it is pretty darn cool I'll show you a little bit here just right now but the full video is on his channel be sure to subscribe as well which how much does that get me off the bill whatever you want this is so different than wizard okay thank you so much you're welcome.
All right, first drive in the Audi and the first thing I'm noticing is the clutch is way way better grabbing much lower and harder oh that engine sounds wonderful I don't know if it'll be able to tell the difference on a carbon cleaning with the Walnut whatever Blaster but uh it does feel like it has a lot more power at least a little more power now of course the oil leaks were something I could not see or smell I guess it did drip on the ground but uh nice to have that peace of mind as well really just totally gone through and refreshed and this thing shows wow that's pretty darn cool that is a lot of car for 6,900 bucks or I guess now uh twelve thousand dollars about five thousand in repairs way way off new one more little blip here awesome.
As for what I'm gonna do with this thing well I probably won't keep it for that long maybe a few months enjoy it and then sell it on but it is so much car for the money V8 six-speed manual beautiful styling practical with the back seat and all the Comfort options. This is so much car for somebody and well I probably won't be making that much when I sell it I mean realistically maybe 15 would be the tippy tippy top since it's had paint work and such even though it is as sort as it is that's just the reality the values just aren't there but I do think I accomplished what I set out to do here and prove that this car is really underappreciated and often overlooked a great value there's some good cars out there this one was very neglected but still not massively bad to bring back and I'm very happy that I was able to do it and hopefully you all enjoyed the content so thank you so much for watching.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enyeah I guess now we can really see this is the oil filter he said the housing was leaking yes oh my goodness it's like a a river of Goo yes all the way to the front of the engine huh now I missed your valve cover gaskets leaking oh they're leaking quite a bit so and lastly I would like to decarbonate your valves because they're oh they are pretty gross yep yeah welcome to hoopie's garage the dumbest Automotive channel in all of YouTube is this is my recently purchased 2008 Audi S5 the V8 naturally aspirated manual transmission amazing looking car but it only cost me 6 900 bucks but it was that cheap because it was traded in at the Hyundai dealer somebody dumped this thing for a Hyundai and it had a lot a lot of issues it needs a clutch needs suspension work it needs brake work it has oil leaks a really big one apparently uh but there's actually some good news with this car when I bought it it had a crunchy shifter from the two to three and the three to four shift but that was actually fixed once the fluid was topped off and an additive put in but that transmission well it's leaking as well but since it's coming out to get the clutch uh not a big deal apparently so actually the car wizard denied taking this car he didn't want to work on another crappy Audi after the R8 and my track record so actually the car ninja has been willing to dive on this grenade for me take my money which after initial estimates was around 4 thousand dollars if there isn't anything else to be found so uh yeah it's going to be very expensive but I think the end result will be fantastic so let's head to the car ninjas and start tearing this thing apart now it was a little daunting at first because there was a lot wrong with this Audi but I'm not mad because I dodged a major major bullet here with the transmission when I first got it it was crunchy from two to three and three to four on the shift but with a fluid change that's one two three four it's quiet I used a BG additive synchromesh 2 and topped off the fluid and the transmission is happy it's safe so I'm saving three thousand dollars right there just on a transmission so the fact that's fine I just have to do a clutch and all the other things it will it could be much worse but usually with a car when you dive in and tear it all apart you find some more things while you're in there I do need to be prepared for that but first the ninja does need to tear into it so let's get over there Ninja you ready yeah quite a job it is I got the parts okay let's take a look yep not a BMW headlight oh here we go so these are those beefy arms they are but that's not the really expensive one where's the expensive thing here the clutch yeah this was like 900 bucks something like that eight something that's the tool it comes with everything cars outside I'm sure you'll have it all apart in 20 minutes or so yes oh yeah are you having the time of your life uh the transmission isn't out yet though huh it's very close okay yeah it's a pain to um pretty much all I have to do just take and loosen the bolts the bell housing and it's should come up okay yeah you are very close yeah and so but I do see the engines torn out down here at least the intake huh yes uh there's a few things we did not talk about let me show you that's not bad but wait there's more it's not too bad okay well there's the intake there's the steering rack okay so where you ride on the oil leak yes yeah I guess now we can really see this is the oil filter he said the housing was leaking yes oh my goodness it's like a a river of Goo yes all the way to the front of the engine huh now I missed your valve cover gaskets leaking oh they're leaking quite a bit so oh yeah sure yep yep so there's more to do though a little bit more and also right here there is a cool leak on this throttle housing bracket right there okay that's very cheap why does coolant run through there to cool off your throttle I guess or keep you warm it's a German thing all right BMW does the same thing interesting and lastly I would like to decarbon your your valves because they're oh they are pretty gross yep yeah all right well that's a very common Audi thing I know the v10s you needed to do that so yes uh um I figure I'll show you while you're here okay should be a solid car when it's done it will it will I mean um it drives really good um sounds great it should drive even better all right well I'm gonna go do a cross-country Drive I got to save my Maybach from the Arizona desert bring it back here and I I imagine you might be done or close to it when I get back yes definitely all right well fingers crossed for you and for me here we go let me tell you I don't want to see another airplane anytime soon well commercial airplane but I'm here in Phoenix a lot of cancellation a lot of problems but reunited once again with a very filthy filthy my buck in a place I've always wanted to visit and he's walking away from me he's scared Jr garage good to see you finally you've come to the Box I've been trying to get here for so long to look at all not because I didn't want to I'm a big fan I watch your videos we do the same things but you do things a little differently you you like to buy Heinz so low right that's the that's the thing with cars like low sell high you're you're mixing up with yourself you lose money on cars all the time though right no how many times no in our entire career of flipping cars right there goes jet yeah one time one time of every car that we've ever ever sold one car and that was our E93 M3 had we held onto it for a few more years we probably would have made money we sold it kind of before they went up there might be one car that I've ever made money on the rest of them might just keep I don't know all right right yeah I see some of your videos taking 5K hits 10K hits I can't do that I will only buy a car but it's a good deal I'm sorry even if I love it it doesn't matter all right well I do see one familiar face in here so you you bought the armored Yukon dude I was watching your video and I got to you know the halfway mark when you start showing this I'm like what is this yeah I saw it was coming up for sale I'm like okay this looks cool so I think I should buy it the window wasn't down but look at this I just want to see the window motor in this thing someone's yeah right it's like 3 000 miles and it's completely bulletproof armored this is a bear Jackson and it sold for a pretty good deal I would say yeah yeah a good enough deal to the point where when we picked up the car there was a note on it saying I forgot to bid give me a call and the guys will want to pay 15 grand more than we paid see we don't lose money 15 grand and we don't have to do anything we could flip it right away you're starting to get braggadocious here but of course we also bought this bear Jackson you did did you see this so this is your this is not your original because you've done this before yeah right we have a ton of 944s no this is a V8 swapped 944 Turbo we had one in the past but it was white right with an LS uh one that we kind of built up the LS6 specs this is an LT1 so yeah but still like it's a lot of power under here that's awesome and then the 355 that's not on fire but looks oh right tired you had a black 95 355 I think I thought I like that one time oh gosh I hope mine doesn't have the same fade I love the Vintage Mercedes right isn't that kind of cool yeah we'll see if I make money on that one I don't know I paid a lot of money how many cars do you have because counting is the first step in a meeting there's a problem so I don't usually have exactly we stopped counting after like 15. and then so I figured it was around 30 or 40 and then one day I had the insurance um send over an entire list of every car in the policy to get me going in the right direction there was a few more that weren't on there but uh and I calculated it's about 65. of hoopties okay so I think uh I think we have a problem uh that's a little more than me Fisker but as long as we make money online oh okay we're getting to the good stuff the ghost oh is this oh no oh no it's a little dirt uh yeah it's a little crashed maybe well look at the back end of it let's work a deal what do you think about me driving the myvotto um well it's hit or miss with these are cl600 we drove a thousand miles after buying inside unseen home and it worked just fine but other Mercedes you can't drive 20 miles without them breaking so especially all the hundred thousand miles it'll be fine no better reason it's better than commercial air travel right now that's for sure so okay you're taking a risk but you know if uh if if all else fails you have YouTube content if it breaks that I can't lose well actually I lose or you could win both ways apparently anyway I'm very confused by your business model but anyway I guess somebody has to make money oh thanks so much to our garage for the tour I'm just now getting outside of Phoenix here in the beautiful Arizona desert and mountains right as the sun's going down so it's about a 15 hour drive a
