Seeing that click-bait ass thumbnail was enough for me to skip over the whole thing. 

Not to mention the fact that he’s an ex-Mercedes dealer tech. So while he’s not specifically a BMW expert, he’s a hell of a lot more knowledgeable, and better equipped with tools/lifts/etc. than pretty much any average Joe Shadetree. 

I’m like “if your car has ~400k miles and you’re telling me you haven’t turned wrenches on it, you’re full of shit.”

Youtuber tells dealer he needs a good headline

He kind of did if you read the last paragraph in full, the parts were only $675. He did it in 5 hours so he factored $215/hr of shop time (reasonable number). Even if it was only the parts cost, they are rarely only 10% of the repair cost unless it's a huge engine and transmission removal job.

Owner did work themselves not factoring in their own labor costs, overhead, equipment costs, tools, and also did not sell parts to himself for a profit. Oh yeah, and no worker’s comp, insurance, or other things required to run a business does job for far less.

If I were a BMW Dealer, I’d write up a $17k bill because you’re wasting my damn time. I’m so sick of these YouTubers wanting us to click and watch their clickbait garbage.

“Despite having no experience working on BMWs”

Most laughable is the bit about long-term battery health as if Audi gives a fuck about reliability outside of their warranty.

Don't apologise for shit Hogan. You spoke the truth and Audi fed you marketing garbage. Tesla for all their faults, has absolutely destroyed in battery and motor tech.

200 mile range doesn’t cut it. That’s a city driver.  And for something with that kind of limited range, why not go cheaper and get a small fuel efficient car?  You won’t need speed or power, unless your climbing something SF’s hills.  

I think LionYeti meant that Roger should have retired from the match, not that he should retire from tennis.  In the fourth set, it was clear that something was bothering him and that if it went to a fifth set, there was probably no way Roger could win.  

I hate to be the one to break the news to Roger, but it doesn’t get any easier. I turn 48 in a few weeks, and I, too, had to take a medical break after the fourth set just because my seated posture was so bad while watching this match.

It wasn’t just the last set, his forehand was wild all night.  Dimitrov played as well as he can, and Fed played about as bad as he can, and it still went 5 sets.

I wonder if you watched the 30 minute extended part after the special? You know where Dave states he thinks Trump will win 2020 due how stupid the current democrats are. So there is that and he isn’t a Republican. So yeah, you Dems need to get your act together or you will have 4 more years of Trump. 

Republican here. Yes, his old shit was funny. And I feel it’s right to defend famous millionaires because it doesn’t matter what you’re worth, it matters if you are in the right. The problem here is that a person you idolize doesn’t agree with your world view. Political correctness is out of control and destroying

She wasn’t tested at all in 2010 or 2011, the year she locked herself in a panic room when testers showed up & didn’t give a sample. The notion she is tested too often is ludicrous.

I’m sure she is being targeted. The only question is whether she’s the Lance Armstrong of women’s tennis or not. I tend to be on the side of “let them use what they want”, but if we’re going to (pretend to?) care about PEDs, then the TUEs are a real issue, however much you want to hand-wave them away. 

And by extension, US men won’t have to test at all!

Once inside, Serena proceeded to the "panic phone" where she promptly called U.S. Open chair umpire Eva Asderaki, mistakenly thinking that was who was at her door, and said, "I thought I already told you! If you ever see me walking down the hall, look the other way, because you're out of control... You're totally out
