WeBuyCars Car Dash | Episode 53 | #SportsCars
WeBuyCars:
It’s time to rev up your engines this week
as we see what sports cars we have on the
floor!
With a sporting budget of R750 000 our trio
has 5 minutes to find the perfect sporting
car!
Let’s see how they handle on the floor.
“Gooday.
I’m Gert Van Deventer the branch manager
of Silver Lakes in Pretoria East WeBuyCars.
Today I’m standing in for Alexia here at
the Midstream Branch.
My virtual budget was R750 000 and I had to
go with this spectacular vehicle.
2017 Ford Mustang 5.0l GT.
Beautiful in colour.
And if you are looking for Power, this is
what you have to go for.
5 Litre GT.
This is it.
Please feel free to pop in at Silver Lakes
Pretoria East WeBuyCars.
We are just around the corner to make your
dream come true.”
“I had a very easy task choosing a sportscar
under R700 000.
It was a no brainer.
A 2007 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S.
How do you compare this car?
It is in a league of its own.
For a 2007 model with 63000km on the clock,
this is definitely a bargain.”
“With a budget of R750 000 I had to go with
the sporty Jaguar F-Type Coupe.
This 3 Litre V6 engine is all about speed.
And its easy on the eye as well.
It’s like my father always said…
It’s like my father always said a Jaguar
is `n goeie kar!”

the air box assembly to dislodge it from the
mounting grommets then remove the air box
from the vehicle. Unhook the two clips that
secure the air box drain tube to the inner
fender then remove the drain tube from the
vehicle.
Remove the front motor mount bolt. This bolt
will be reused in a later step. Install the
provide rubber mounted studs on to the heat
shield mounting bracket. Install the heat
shield mounting bracket on the motor mount
and secure with a factory bolt removed in
step seven but don't tighten at this time.
Remove the two screws that secure the mass
air sensor to the factory air box, then remove
the mass air sensor from the air box. Install
the mass air sensor into the K&N intake tube
and secure with the provided hardware. Install
the four provided six millimeter stands into
the filter adopter. Install the provided edge
trim on to the heat shield. Assemble the two:
heat shield and filter adopter along with
a gasket on each side of the heat shield and
secure with provided hardware.
Loosen the hose clamps securing the intake
elbow and the throttle body so that the intake
elbow position can be adjusted. Install the
intake assembly into the factory intake elbow
and align the heat shield with the rubber
mounting studs installed onto the mounting
bracket. Align the intake for proper fit and
secure it with the hardware provided and factory
host clamps. Install the K&N air filter onto

Thank a Teacher Vacation Winner - Caroline County, VA!
Virginia Lottery:
We're here at Lewis and Clark Elementary
School in Caroline County,
and we are about to surprise 5th grade teacher Laura Callahan with a trip from our Thank A Teacher campaign.
Come on!
Without further ado, obviously I'm here because one of the two teachers
who was selected to win a vacation is in this room.
And I don't know yet what she looks like, so I am gonna ask miss Laura Callahan...
*applause*
Come on up!
I would never imagine that I would be receiving this honor, so I was completely blown away.
Kids were thanking me for the time I spend with them and awesome things that we learn about in science.
So, I like getting that feedback.
Yep. I love it!
I love it. Really. Along with the chocolate I received as well, because they know what to get me.
The Virginia Lottery appreciates everyone's participation in this year's Thank A Teacher campaign!
Thanks to you, we distributed more than 60,000 thank-you-notes across the Commonwealth
Let's do it again next year!
How to Check Power Steering Fluid | Advance Auto Parts
Advance Auto Parts:
Checking your power steering fluid, not hard
to do at all. In fact, this is
one of your vehicle's vital fluids that keeps
everything running smoothly.
If you've ever heard your power steering pump
whine when you turn hard left
or hard right, chances are your power steering
pump is low on fluid.
Just locate the power steering fluid cap,
remove it, and you want to check
the level. In this case, there's three lines,
a low, a medium, and a high.
High being the max, low being the minimum.
Let's wipe it down, reinstall,
and get a good fluid level check.
Back it back out. Ours is right at the top
of the max. We're in good shape.
I like to wipe down the rim. Don't let any
dirt or contamination go down
inside. And reinstall the cap, and make sure
it seals.
Woman Fatally Shot During Attempted Car Jacking
CBS Chicago:
2016 Audi A6
Cars.com:
For 2016 audi has updated its A6
midsize sedan with some styling changes
some powertrain upgrades and a few
changes to the electronics as well let's
take a closer look
now one of the changes to the front end
is the grill which couldn't go any
deeper had to get a little bit wider and
that's what they did this used to be a
really bold looking design
now it just kind of fits in they also
redesigned the headlights and the LED
daytime running lights around back they
redesigned the tail lights made the rear
and look a little bit broader and now
all the trim levels have trapezoidal
tailpipes
it is as before kind of an understated
but handsome design
it also looks a lot like the other audi
cars that might be a good thing in some
ways but it's also kind of a bad thing
the powertrain news is good news
the base engine which was a turbocharged
two-liter four cylinder is again a
turbocharged two-liter four-cylinder but
it's been changed it gets 32 horsepower
more than it did before for 252
horsepower
now you can step up from that to the
three-point OT which is what we have
here
it has a supercharged three liter 6
cylinder
it is up 23 horsepower and now has 333
horsepower
now the TDI clean diesel engine hasn't
changed at all and as less horsepower
than the four cylinder but a lot more
torque in fact out he says and 0 to 60
it's quicker we like the power trains
available for the a6 we found with this
one that the transmission doesn't really
have any hesitation which is good it
never seems like it's hunting for a gear
and with the standard all-wheel drive
no traction is ever lost it just goes
the steering is a little more
disappointing
not a lot of feedback kind of Numb even
when you adjust the assist level using
some of the controls
it's not a huge deal but i have to be
clear we're obligated to talk about the
finer aspects of the driving and I think
the average person could get in this car
and never think twice about things like
steering feel they're more likely to
think about the ride quality and in that
regard I was a little disappointed in
this car as equipped
because it has the optional sport
suspension and 20-inch wheels and that
makes the ride firmer than I'd like it
to be especially in what is otherwise a
very comfortable car
there are some driving modes that audi
handles quite well
they let you set your individual
preference that way you can just jump to
your individual mode instead of relying
on the predetermined modes that they
have for you one thing that disappointed
me was the car used to have a button
just out here that you could hit and
change your driving mode your drive
select mode now it's only on the display
here you have to hit the car button
first bring it up on the menu
this is actually a bit of a
disappointment comes out he's pretty
good at giving you buttons that you can
hit when you need them
without going into the menus one example
if you don't like the blind spot monitor
the buttons right here you just reach up
smack it same thing for the head-up
display which you know if your spouse
likes it and you don't
the buttons are right here on the side
just hit it once and it's off this also
lets you change the brightness and the
height and actually goes really high
the interior quality and the a6 is quite
good
there's no leather-clad dashboard or
anything like that at least not base but
the quality is still good one
I think exception is we kind of wish the
windowsill as it were
we're not so hard which they have padded
a little bit more now even though most
of their controls make some sense to me
there's one that's a real puzzler and
that is you can hit both the heated feet
and the cold seat
turn them both i'm at the same time that
has to be a german thing
bears noting that leather seats are
standard in the a6 that's very uncommon
among luxury vehicles especially the
German so that's a positive one of the
big changes for 2016
just a aside from a couple you know
chrome strips here and there on the
interior is improvements to the
multimedia interface system the MMI
which is technically an option but good
luck finding a car dealership that
doesn't have it
one of the things it does is adds faster
processors so I was never
super slow to begin with but knowledge
you know right on the money
same thing for the Supplemental display
between the gauges
they also added 4g LTE capability which
among other things gives you google maps
actual you know pictures that come in
really quickly and zoom really quickly
along with the hidden changes in the
electronics one very welcome change is
the a6 now has USB ports used to be just
a connector for Apple devices here in
the back seat
I'm six feet tall and I have enough
headroom and legroom is also pretty good
with the seat ahead of me all the way
back
my knees are raised a little more than
I'd like and i have to say for a midsize
car I kind of expected more space back
here
but if you compare the dimensions this
is actually more legroom than you get in
the 5-series the e-class and the cts the
a6 has a slight advantage over its
competitors with 14.1 cubic feet of
trunk volume of the BMW has 14 the Caddy
13.7 and the e class 12.9 even more
important
there's a split folding back seat that
lets you extend the space into the cabin
and that's standard here as it is in the
BMW now with a price starting about
forty-seven thousand dollars for the
base a six
it's actually a pretty good deal it is
more expensive than the Cadillac but
cheaper than the two German competitors
the changes for 2016 really keep it a
nice well rounded up to date car
I definitely would consider it if I were
shopping but you might want to think
twice about that sports suspension make
sure it's not too firm for you

Doing This Will Make Your Wheel Bearings Last Forever
Scotty Kilmer:
rev up your engines, today I'm gonna show
you how to make your wheel bearings last
twice as long, now in the olden days and
I was a young mechanic, wheel bearings
were part of maintenance, you would take
the cover off, you would take the wheel
bearings out, you would regrease them with
wheel bearing grease, then put them all
back together again, now I was going to
show you some wheel bearing grease that
we used to use, but it's been so long
since I had to do one, I couldn't find
any in my garage, I know there's some
back there somewhere, but it's so old and
dried out it's probably not even good
anymore, and if somebody brought me a really
old car, I'd have to go buy a new can of
the stuff, because modern-day wheel
bearings most of them are like this hub
assembly, the wheel bearing is built
inside, you can't take it apart, you have
to replace the whole unit, and it's
sealed unit with seals on both sides to
keep dirt out, now in the old days when
we had to repack them if you were bad
and you didn't and they wore out, you
could get a set of front wheel bearings
for like twelve dollars
they didn't cost much, well with these
modern systems, something like the front
bearings on this Celica which isn't that
modern it's 94, there pressed on
you can't lubricate them, but you need a
machine press to take it apart and put
it back together again it's a real
expensive job, the newer ones they're a
whole assembly and some of these
assemblies not only do they cost a small
fortune, but on kind of oddball cars like
European ones, just replacing them can
cost thousands of dollars, so of course
you want to make it last as long as they
possibly can, and here's tips on how to
do that, now since they're all sealed
units there's no greasing for you to do,
but seals what I do, they break down over
time, my advice is you want to stay away
from both deep water and especially from
saltwater in the ocean, driving on the
beach by the ocean may seem cool, but you
get that sea mist water and it gets
inside there, it'll start eating up your
bearings, and the next one as nutty as it
sounds is, take care your tires, if you
have the wrong air pressure, don't have
enough air, they ride more squashed
that strains the bearings more, the
more you strain the bearings, the faster
they're gonna wear out, even worn out
struts or shocks, making it bounce a lot
more, there will be more damage done from
the friction and bumping, and it can wear
them out faster, and of course be careful
where you're driving, say you hit curbs maybe
your wife hits curbs all the time, that
little bump might not seem like much but
if it knocks the alignment off or
slightly bend something, then it's not on
the wheel bearings sitting right it's
got more pressure on one side or the
other, and over time it'll wear out, over
the years I seen this literally hundreds
of times,
a customer will come in, I can hear the wheel
bearing roaring away, I'll say well your
wheel bearing is bad just on the one side
I'll say, now has this car ever been
wrecked, and they'll say yeah last year
it got wrecked on that side, the car got
wrecked on that side obviously a little
bit damage was done to the suspension, it
can take thousands and thousands of
thousands of miles to wear out these
wheel bearings, because their steel
ball bearings and some of the older ones
were roller bearings, but if they're off
a little bit you think how many millions
of times that thing is spinning while
you're driving down the road, eventually
that little bit off is gonna wear the
metal and then the wheel bearings will
start making noises, so you if you see any
of those
big potholes coming up, hey slow down or
try to go around them or over them if
your cars wider than the pothole, because
every time you hit those potholes that's
damaging the suspension, and the wheel
bearings can wear out, and conversely
even if you haven't hit anything, if
you're going down the highway and your car
is
starting to get the shakes and your
alignment is off, something's going on
with anything in suspension, you want to
get that fixed cuz over time all that
shaking is eventually gonna make the
wheel bearings wear out faster, now if
your wheel bearings do wear out, here is
a tip if you want the new ones to last
as long as possible, get OEM wheel
bearings, do not buy the cheapest ones
you can find that are made in China, over
the years
I even tried a long time ago with my
customers cars to save money that way
and always bit me in the rear end, and I
see more guys they'll buy the cheap
Chinese wheel bearings and then a year
year and a half later, guess what they
start roaring again and they're worn out,
and since a lot of modern cars now have
ABS sensors built into the hub assembly
with the wheel bearing inside, I've seen
guys buy the Chinese once and they either
don't have the right sensor or they
don't have any sensor at all, and as soon
as they bolt it up and start driving
along, their abs light starts flashing at
them, and that's because that cheap wheel
bearing isn't made right to fit the
computer software of your car and it
doesn't read the speed right, so the
computer thinks there's something wrong
with the ABS system and it turns the
light on, if you're going through all the
trouble taking all the suspension apart
to get that hub off, use a quality OEM
wheel bearing assembly, don't go cheap on
that, now realize most manufacturers
don't even make their own wheel bearings,
they buy them from all their companies
like to Europeans often use these F a g
wheel bearings, wheel bearings are kind
of interesting because wheel bearings
are universal size, there's not English
there's not metric, so I've had in the
past where somebody brought me an
expensive BMW that when a wheel bearing
went out on it, I actually bought a Ford
oem wheel bearing because it was the same
exact size, it costs a tons less than
what they want at the BMW dealer of
course, and it worked perfectly fine but
that was in the older days when we would
take them apart and put new ones in
today they're all hub assemblies and the
Ford hub assembly isn't gonna fit on a
BMW assembly even if the wheel bearings
inside are the same size, the hub will be
different, now another tip to make your
wheel bearings last a long time is, if
you are changing them, when you finally
put that nut back on that holds a drive
shaft to it, make sure you use a torque
wrench, because when you're tightening
this nut when you're putting it in, you
have to have the perfect amount of
torque so the wheel bearing isn't either
too loose or too tight
I see more guys put on wheel bearings,
and then a few months later the new ones
start making noise because they're
wearing out, because they didn't torque it
right, torque wrenches are easy to use, in
this case the numbers are here and you
just turn the handle until you're at the
right reading 50 foot-pounds, you go to
50 foot-pounds and stop,
they have the little part here that when
it does get to the right torque, it makes
a loud click, then you know it's at the
right setting of foot pounds, so it's
torqued down just right, and there's a
zillion sources of information for the
right torque for the right parts, you can
use alldata .com you can get a book, you
can go lots of ways, but you want to make
sure it's right because, if it's torqued too
tight it'll overstress the bearing, the
bearings squeezed in and guess what, it's
gonna wear out faster, and conversely if
it's too loose, that's actually even
worse, because it's too loose then the
stupid thing is bouncing all over the
place, and it's gonna wear out even
faster when it's loose, cuz there's a lot
more friction, anything that's bouncing
around and moving it's going to create
heat and friction and that'll where the
bearings out faster, plus it'll make an
awful lot of noise and drive you crazy
now I'll tell you one thing not to do if
you want them to last longer, I've seen
guys where they can hear noise in the
wheel bearings, and even though they're
sealed, they'll get a little hypodermic
syringe and hook it up to a grease gun
and they'll pump grease back in, well
that's not really a good thing to do and
that's for two reasons, first if the
seals gone dirt got in there, the dirt is
still gonna stay in there and it's gonna
still be friction, it's still gonna wear
the bearings out, and if they're making
noises they're worn already anyway and
two, wheel bearing grease is a very
specialized grease, each manufacturer
often uses a different type of grease
than the other manufacturers, and even
the same manufacturer over years changes
the type of grease they put in a wheel
bearing, and if you mix two different
kinds of wheel bearing grease, I've seen
that wear them out even faster, because
they're not compatible, you got to have
the correct grease and only that type
inside a clean environment, so don't try
to just pump some in after the grease
seal, not a smart idea, because on the modern
cars, when they're worn out if
you're getting a hub assembly that has
new seals, all the parts are new they're
pre-greased, the grease is all inside and
done correctly, and all you gotta do is
bolt the old one off and bolt the new one
on
and do it with the right torque settings,
so now you know all about wheel bearing
hey your entire car is spinning around
on these things one on each wheel and
even though they have no actual
maintenance in modern cars, now you know
how to make them last as long as
possible, and since this is mechanic
Monday I'm give it away a nice torque
wrench, to have a chance to win this
torque wrench so your wheel bearings
will be tightened up correctly, just
place a clean non-offensive comment on
youtube comments below, and a winner will
be chosen randomly by computer to get a
nice torque wrench
so they put things together the right
way, so if you never want to miss another
