I've known Magic Mike for years and years, over a decade, longer than the Car Wizard actually. 4:00 was an obvious joke (he knew I was joking) but if you want to take it as an Ellen Degeneres moment, go ahead... It did look rude, it was rude looking at it out of context. Sorry if you think I'm a terrible person now.
Croatia forgive you :)
An ellen moment? You mean you finally are coming out of the closet , no worries and no surprise
lol if you have a mechanic friend we always take jokes well, I saw Mike's smile dont worry Hoovie, we wont let 2020 get you
I figured as much and didn’t give it a second thought. If anyone wanted to judge you, the video showing your double digit car collection would be the likelier choice. You MIGHT be Satan incarnate, but who could tell? This example of you apologizing for your behavior is almost as nice as you were being when you shooed the stripper guy away. You could butch it up a bit and still seem like the nicest dumb car channel on YT.
@Mens Lifestyle Do you have a problem with someone providing context? What is the problem with explaining to people who obviously did not understand? If you don't explain people complain, if you do explain you complain. Do not defend yourself over this comment or are you sensative? Dick.
Why aren’t the transmissions repairable?
Please set a good example of safe driving, and keep both your hands on the steering wheel. I had a blow out on the front tyre of a Ford Zodiac MK4, the power steering pulled the car in to the centre barrier, and, I lost control of the car because I only had 1 hand holding the wheel, after spinning off the Motorway, up a bank, rolling twice and landed on my roof, facing the way I had driven from, I walked away from the crash, mainly because I had a seat belt on.
Bad news, Debby does Dallas was stuck in the vcr!😂🤣
Hey Hoovies, Just happened to stumble on this video and the title scared me a little (ok a lot) because I have a 2011 SLS Coupe. Couple of questions: What is the mileage on your SLS and do you know if the trans fluid had been changed before? I have 5,500 miles on mine, but the trans fluid has never been changed. One reason is I do not trust the dealership to do it. Watching your video it seems fairly easy once you know what is involved, and correct me if I am wrong but it seems to change the trans fluid all that is involved are drain plugs. I think it is time to do mine as condensation can affect fluids. Would it be possible for you to list exactly what fluids are needed for the trans? Thanks much appreciated. At the risk of this being a shameless plug here is a link to my SLS lvworld.info/tv/PLSefdXiuxaohstWZ3LAPxTdIJwaSLdEpT.html
Every time the Wizard says "and things of that nature" I hear it in Riley Martin's voice.
Best vehicle of the whole video was the Ford Lightning! 🤣🤣
I was today years old when I learned there are mechanics who proof-taste maintenance fluids.
$800 fluid change???? Buy Japanese instead of that German crap..
The AMG GTs also has dry sump, not just the SLS. When my GTS was in Mercy service, the manager told me they just replaced the DCT in another one. $55,000!! And that's what they billed Mercedes under warranty! It would cost we poor owners more. Mine has run regally, but that issue looming over has me damn worried. 😬
Zip ties and duct tape will work on the cover!
Wow...more tech goes into each and every GM truck and SUV to accommodate steering and engine placement, without just tilting everything like a backyard hackanic, than goes into an uber expensive POS Gwagon. Not surprised really.
Another source for your vibration could be those General Grabber tires. I have had bad luck with those tires, they vibrate a lot. The tires feel like they are square; especially when they are cold. Get rid of them asap!
And the whole time, Tyler tells them not to mix the liquids up! Don't make a mistake!. Geez. Tyler has a 6th sense.
Mr Wizard is very nice & humble guy 😚🤗
Watching this while knowing what will happen gives me anxiety
G is a jeep not a truck 😠😂
Tastes like caca doodoo
Amg gt’s have dry sumps
I love it. Powersh*t😂😂 can’t say that on LVworld. Oh, you can say it on LVworld. Mainly the F word or other major cuss words are what they get keywords for demonetization purposes. The bald wizard is fine😁
Mike fucked up lmao
POWER SHIT
Disaster averted. Wait... :/
Fabulous car 🚙
Why did they use a diesel oil? Does it meet the 229 rating for your gas Mercedes?
I have the toy version of this car on my desk lol
Note to newbies watching this: This is NOT a transaxle....trans and differential are in separate cases using separate fluids, like the Vette..... in transaxles, trans and diff share one case and fluid.
engineering wonder...it makes you wonder how still works...
Why 2would you buy a complete new propshaft for the G Wagon, can you not just replace the spiders?
Why do I keep hearing Jeff Goldbloom?
Love your channel...have for years... Please,please ,please stop saying wizard like your a three year old....getting real annoying....REALLY...
My 450 SEL 6.9L had a factory dry sump setup.
Woud be helpful if Wizard's prices were real world, not special Hoovie pricing.
Hoovie talks like Jeff goldblum sometimes...
❤ for this little hoovie.
And then there is the clutch in my VW Splittie. 10 dollars US for a new friction plate :)
More videos like this, getting Top Gear vibes from the first part. Great production
15:12 that sound 😂
👍👍👍👍
@20:40 the best oil for maritime deep sumps...which figures since you are driving a boat (a gordeous boat but still)
STOP TASTING CARCINOGENIC FLUIDS WIZARD!!!
14:30, so did wizard actually have it right and mike "corrected" him and switched it? Or something else?
Why replace the driveshaft if the ujoint is blown out?
It's not get-rag, it's g'trag, like Gdansk
hahahaha how daring !!! no American car beats German cars.
It seems like a good reason to do without a transmission and buy a tesla.
someone please tell me where can i find this intro music????
Dont eat the car. Wizard procceeds to drink oil.
sls amg is one of the best car of all times
A good way to have a maintenance failure is interrupt the mechanic while he is doing the job. Asking questions constantly and pointing out the lose bit of plastic while he is about to fill something, or tighten a drain plug is a good start to making sure he forgets where he is at in the procedure.
20:28 why do you use diesel oil?
you buy a new camera or did you hire someone to record you now?
"Let's not put the wrong fluids in the wrong places, please" *F*
How about the e-SLS?
I think Hoovie has a cod piece obsession to add to his yoga pants fetish.
20:30 I use that in my S52 BMW engine. Delvac had a $10 rebate/gallon last year, ended up being $12/gallon.
This makes me 😥 sad. We all make mistakes but the wizard did step up to the plate. I have respect for that
DSG is not new technology and has always been troublesome/expensive. It's a manufacturer's con to keep their workshops busy and their pockets lined. Amazing to drive when new and that's about it. :)
Magic Mike channel when?
Thought running the car to check the fluid was a common thing?
Real life back to the future moment!😆
I think the torque tube is actually made of carbon fiber
They convinced Wizard he had the fill ports backwards 15:00 , but Wizard was correct until they changed his mind
The fun time of gaining back the customer's trust after a minor fluid flip :) A into B rather than A into A and B into B :)
Wizard it will be:Foo Motul ain’t cheap😜
Anyone else watching this after the fluid mixup?
The Wizard should have tasted both old and new to select the right fluid :-)
yes
Went to watch it to look at the fluids looked at I glance 11:16, 18:40, 20:30
Almost, missed this ep and saw the mixup. So went back to get it in order XD
Wrong, all wrong....
. See.. latest video after this was filmed. the wizard even said maybe we should check the video again. Majic Mike should've known better, but what the heck everyone makes mistakes.
How shrewd and cunning is Hoovie?? not buy this content...looks scripted
not the right engine oil
The look on your face when he said $800
Hi... I'm from the future... That sls is fucked
12:52 DEMONITIZED 🤣
14:35 - 14:57 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think its the wrong fluid in the wrong hole.
"I always wanted to fix a transmission" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA
14:54 that didn’t age well
Awesome.
Bro he put the wrong fluids in
14:53 Nope you were right Wizard.
14:35 :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
That’s the wrong fluid
12 days too late.
send the old vcr to 12 volt vids. he would have a field day! he may have a cure...
23:58 Corrado
Hmmm, in a previous video you stated the MB 300 SL as your favorite car of all time. Were you not aware that the six cylinder engine in the 300 SL is also mounted at an angle to clear the hood? Also, in the Sixties, Dodge and Chrysler had a slant six in their Dart and Valiant models that no doubt powered those cars for millions of miles.
You are supposed to check the temp of the oil after changing it using the Star diagnosis tool and also check it has not been overfilled also there is a specific torque setting on the plug. If you want to protect a 30k transmission do it properly
4.32 "Complete new shaft will be here next week" Is the universal joint not available? I had the same issue with a "U" joint on a BMW 320i. The only worn part of the driveshaft was the rear U joint. BMW said no U joint was available but a complete new driveshaft was, for $1800. A German parts supplier in Toronto got me a U joint for $49. That was 5 years and 60,000 miles ago. It turns out the replacement U joint is actually a Volvo part, and the supplier was aware of that.
Aren't you and LegitStreetCars buddies? Thought you knew him…? If not, you should look him up on LVworld he just might know a thing or two or three on MBs. You know him dude, I'm sure you are friends.
Oval office...LOL
watching wizard taste fluids makes me feel sick LOL
I've known Magic Mike for years and years, over a decade, longer than the Car Wizard actually. 4:00 was an obvious joke (he knew I was joking) but if you want to take it as an Ellen Degeneres moment, go ahead...

I will not be surprised when Wizard gets tounge cancer.
9:09 "Rob... ugh" hahahaahah best comment ever
Had to double check it was hoovies garage, without the theme song
Love you hoovie always make my day better man. Hopefully one day I can meet you and talk hoopties
"Wizard Rigging" 🤔🤔🤔
There isn't anything inherently wrong with DCTs, but you have to get the R&D right. Unlike VW/Mercedes/Ford.
someday you will be mine - goddamn beautiful car
It's better have old oil than not oil at all.
Is it just me or does Magic Mike look related to Johnny the Car Ninja?
