A friend of mine did a Scotty Kilmer parody video. It was... a thing. Scotty got super butt hurt about it.

Could care less for either one. But I do find it funny the instigator has a bass pro photo circle.

I mean, Scotty Kilmer doesn’t seem to know much more about car repair than Tavarish does.
He just yells at the screen and sounds like he knows what he’s talking about. In his reaming of the smart fortwo I counted what, like dozens of inaccuracies? Dude needs to get off his high horse.

I vote that Youtube commisions a Youtube TV series were all automotive youtubers have a Twisted Metal/Deathrace/Road Warrior type battle.

I choose neither.
They’re both terrible. They frequently get their facts wrong and they stink of annoying YouTube personalities.
I haven’t watched either of them in a very long time.

Both or them are idiots who don’t know jack shit. But divorce is probably worse because he devalues the entire profession of automotive repair because he literally sees no value in paying someone to do something he can do, but most people can’t and don’t want to do.
An oil change at a dealership on a Mercedes is not just changing the oil and filter you fucking idiot (talking to divorce). He's a hack and I wish he didn't have such a large audience eating up his terrible advice.

That’d be a great Road Warrior car. Except for the whole mileage thing. Maybe a 1st Gen Honda Insight with a bazooka on top would be better.

People are always confused when I tell them my oil changes are like $90 because I get good oil and filters, a full safety inspection, and suspension lube

I had a customer bring a car in one time to diagnose a smog failure. He asked if I can do an oil change too. I said yeah. So I did the estimate and using the price for the right spec oil, a Toyota filter, and the proper labor time, I think it came out to $80. When he dropped the car off and I told him the price he asked why it was so much, and I responded with, “We don’t use cheap parts. We use the right oil, a genuine filter, and we choose not to lose money on an oil change.” “Oh. Well I’ll take it somewhere cheaper for the oil change.”
The tires on this particular car were completely bald. There was literally no tread left on it. Some customers.

At least Tavarish’s videos are presented as entertainment. People could be genuinely hurt by Scotty’s “advice.”

Wait, how is doing your own oil change devaluing the professional mechanic? How is there value in paying (in my area) $13 0 an hour for someone to do something I can do myself?
![]() 07/03/2018 at 18:51 |

That’s fair, but theses are all things you could do for less money and a little but of time invested.
Are you talking about a suspension lube on a newer car? Most newer vehicles don't even get a "suspension lube." There is nothing to lune and no way to even do it.
![]() 07/03/2018 at 19:05 |

No, I’m not saying doing it yourself is devaluing what I do. I’m saying making videos proclaiming that ALL technicians do during a service is drain and fill the oil and replace the oil filter. I can distinctly remember a video of an SL he did where gets underneath, removes a pain, and takes the drain plug out and says that same thing would have cost him around $130 at a dealer.
But that’s not all technicians do. We also do inspections, and our time, tools, and expertise is worth something. But if you (general you, not specific you) don’t see any value in that and want to do it yourself there’s nothing wrong with that. But making videos constantly saying dealers and technicians are scam artists is just wrong.

What are these magic Mercedes oil changes? I’ve owned a modern BMW for a while now and received free oil changes for the first 50k miles, and they were most certainly, just oil changes.

When I had more free time I did my own oil changes, but now it’s worth it to have my mechanic do it, on the Subaru at least, especially since I have nowhere good to do it where I live, and the car is low enough that I’d need to jack it up. Plus I want to have a full service history for this one in case I wind up needing to sell it some day. It’s a 2006, I guess it most likely doesn’t have serviceable suspension components, but my truck definitely does and gets greased whenever it’s getting an oil change and any of that needs done.
The people who are confused about $90 services are the same people going to a janky Mr. Lube or similar whenever they remember that cars need oil.

I am confused about a $90 oil change. A filter is like $8 and a 5 qt jug of Castrol full synthetic is $22. Ramps are $40. Keep a maintenance log and make a note of the date and mileage of the oil change. Just my take on it, but the people who think it’s nuts to pay $90 for $30 worth of oil are correct.
![]() 07/03/2018 at 21:13 |

Hell, my oil alone costs anywhere from $70-$120.... 12 liters worth. Filters are $10-20. But still small price to pay for something as important as an oil change.
But at least now I have a good extractor so I don’t even have to get under the car. Oil and filter out the top.
![]() 07/03/2018 at 21:22 |
|
That’s what my boat takes and the filter is $35. I buy the oil in 5 gallon buckets. I have no idea what it would cost to have someone else do it. The thought never even occurred to me. The extractor makes it all very easy.
![]() 07/03/2018 at 21:25 |

Alright I just checked my receipts. $75-85 or so for most of them. $40 labour, $6.50 filter, $20 synthetic oil. Add tax, there you go.
