Monkey Wrench Mike is back with his scariest purchase of all - a cheap Copart Mercedes S600 with the very troublesome V12 engine! He and Randy, from ‪@AutoAuctionRebuilds‬ , drive half way across the country to bring home 2 cars. Do they make it? Did the cars survive??

The moment the car was revealed, I knew the ABC system had a problem - and I've never been near a Mercedes! I'm starting to think that ABC means Always Bring Cash.
@perryelyod4870
@perryelyod4870 2 года назад
Alex at Legit Street cars just rebuilt an ABC in an CL600 (CL65?). It's actually not that difficult if you're through and methodical about it. However, you will also need a good scan system like the Star diagnosis, or equivalent to get everything working again. Even he made some mistakes that other DIYer's can learn from. One of the great benefits of You Tube. Of course, it can get very expensive, but most of the time, it's the cheaper parts that fail, like the lines here. If you have time, and don't need the car, it's probably good to remove the whole system, and put it back together, replacing anything defective. Or install a retrofit coil over system. . .

Hi from uk MRM👋 pleased you got her up as them suspension systems are horribly awkward 👍 big shout to rocky @ Rockys machine and repair some guys making time out his schedule👍👍 and might have dodgey key or ignition switch possibly some time fuel pump relay switch to constantly open or closed ?? You dont have much luck with transmission ecus maybe it need oiling up first or summit😂😂 and also on disconnecting battety a little tip if helps for draining pcm bcms etc (leave live connected to battery ..disconnect neuatral/negative and put rag or summit between battery and terminal to fully isolate! Jump cable from positive to negative terminal only leave for 10 maybe 20 mins (drain all bcm pcm values) ignition on and leave for minute or two then cycle ignition 2 times to let car know in learn mode (start car now) then cycle everything like gears etc dont move car tho allow to heat cycle and drive normally no heavy throttling for first 30-50miles and car will re educate all values to best it can or what you teach it it will re learn fuel values and trims for tps etc too) great episode pleased got yhese 2 cars bit noticed s**t happened man guys but in good hands now both of them lol thanks for your time and be safe see you soon👍👍👋
@charlierosenbusch3007
@charlierosenbusch3007 2 года назад
Hey Mike I'm sure you already found the problem why it won't shut off after removing the key, but on the off chance you haven't get a couple cans of electronic parts spray remove the fuse boxes and hose them down. I had a Volvo that did the same thing and found that the heater core had leaked and got into the fuse box. After spraying it down and letting it dry I put the fuse box back in and it was good to go. That and a new battery because you know how European cars are about batteries and electronics not working right with weak or old batteries. Anyway thanks for another great video. As always stay safe.

Why do you do this, Mike? Your a brave soul, and you can't resist a challenge. Someone says no one buys this model of Mercedes and you are automatically how to get it home and how long it will take until you can drive it. Much like the other famous RU-vid who lays down ten grand on a car he hasn't checked out because the challenge is there. Both of you can't wait to see who wins the race. The fellas holding the short, sharp sticks or the bear who they just jabbed in the backside with those sticks. Your going to look good in the car as your going down the road.

May the fun begin, i’ve seen that you were having troubles with this car to begin with already before the video came out because of Facebook and Instagram! I’ve done similar road trips and several coach buses and school buses, when it comes to coach buses, I was going on athletic trips with a bunch of friends from my school, be ready to see on the first clip I was coming back to school from a field trip on my science class! I was headed to places such as Indiana, Tennessee, and Ohio! Toward the end of the vlog, you’re going to see an old video from my schools prom in 2018! For that we got to write an a limo! But in the limo clip, you’re going to hear us talk about vodka, keep in mind, we were pretending that water and soda was! Also, at the very end, you’re going to see one of my dorm parents attempting to do donuts in our campus parking lot with a state vehicle, you may hear me streaming music while recording. I was recording on a iPod touch which is like an iPhone, but it doesn’t make phone calls!
