The Bentley Dealer wanted $5,000 to Fix this Common Failure! We did it for $50 in Minutes…

1. Looking at Bentleys now 😂

2. Robinson Elizabeth Martinez Nancy Young Kenneth

3. Modern cars are designed to be built quickly and efficiently "at the factory". Repairs and maintenance concerns are way down the list…….bonus for dealership labor profits, suck-ass concerns for the customer.

4. I have had numerous questionable control valves when it actually was the connector. New connectors are like $12. Always coat the pins with stabilant 22.

5. Man I love your videos and hope one day to meet you and get my own project. 😊

6. ryan the true hero

7. I bought and sold many many cars; in a hot climate. Virtually all had no working A/C. So off to Pep Boys I went and bought those cans of refrigerant for about $5. With the simple connector hose to the low side ; it would draw in and the A/C blew cold !. This worked 100% of the time. One bottle ; $5 , FIXED !!!. Selling a clean car with working everything is a piece of cake 🍰 !!! Happy times .

8. Ok , we won't ask how you know all this. Mum's the word.

9. The last line was hilllaaaaaroius.

10. Hope you hook Ryan up! 😎

11. I think I saw a Blackwood on the trailer! Freaking cool and simi rare truck! 😎

12. Sam, three tips that I do while servicing an A/C with Freon. First I bleed just a little Freon on the service hose to empty air and humidity in the line before attaching to the service port. While filling, I bring the engine to 1500 to 2000rpm to charge the system faster. It’s helpful to have two people to do it and before his passing, my dad loved to cup the Freon can in his hands and slosh the Freon around to warm the can and accelerate the transfer. Boy, I sure miss him. 🖖🏼

13. Every inch counts when you're in a tight space? ✅

14. No Way Jose! I will enjoy my Long Range Model Y with none of that Bull $hit! Gasoline Cars are POS on a Good Day!

15. To me there's nothing remarkable or impressive about these Bentleys. The badge just seems like a licence to print money.

16. i know whats wrong with it. it ran out of gas jk

17. Tell me what you pay for each of these cars and I might subscribe.

18. Is that your Blackwood?

19. The test you did on the old valve you should’ve done on the new one to see if it’s actually a valid test

20. RKX valve fixed mine as well. Great company and support.

21. I had the same AC problem about 5 years ago with my 2006 Jetta. Dealer wanted big $ to repair it. I replaced the control valve for cheap and that fixed it.

22. The Biden sticker at the gas station killed me 😂😂

23. what code was it throwing that led you to the valve?

24. Funny Sam but I’ve had the same problem with mine. You have to open them halfway up to get them to actually let the refrigerant in to wherever you’re sending it so funny man take care of yourself, bro.

25. A very educational video Sam not that I will be in the same position any time soon I drive a Mercedes EQA250 electric car and I haven't found where the air conditioning unit is located yet but i will be checking out things under the bonnet soon. Your videos are so good to watch keep them coming mate.

26. That valve has a manet to pull a plunger up and a spring to reseat it. The spring is tiny like a ball point pen

27. Epitome of dreadful German car design.

    60s chrylers had 4 bolts, on top of motor. 10 minute job

28. Bently=audi

29. I’d kill to drive a new Bentley

30. This is why I drive an Escalade ESV. Nearly every part is readily available for a reasonable price plus nearly anyone can work on it. If I have to take it to a dealer their rates are under $200/hr vs $300 an hour for must European luxury cars.

31. Just fixed this problem few weeks ago, it was the valve issue as well, in my case the low pressure was too high somewhere around 65 psi (it should be around 25-35)but I could confirm the a/c compressor was working. Order the new valve from China cost me 30 bucks, the cool air came out again. My car is Q5 2.0T 2014 gen3 ea888, the a/c compressor was manufactured by Denso, Japan company. Btw the way, another common failure could be the refrigerant pressure sensor which is located on the condenser.

32. I am an old mechanic with a two year associates degree in specialized automotive technology and learn so much on this channel. Thank you Mr. Crack !

33. Every inch counts. Sage word Sam learned from his step-mom.

34. Easier to drop the engine.

35. My woman used to tell me that “every inch counts “

36. why do you keeping buying these British lemons?

37. It's what you don't know that will kick your ass

38. I enjoy the tool and accessory ads as they seem useful. Your work is stellar- you are what I call a "thinking mechanic"…from a fellow restorer.
