It’s so bad that people are making you feel hounded when you are always so busy! They need to remember RUclips is secondary to your actual business! Love seeing Rob getting so excited when a non-runner starts 🤣
I could feel your genuine joy when that turned over. Glad it’s going in the right direction now. As ever, loving the channel and content. You often mention about video lengths being too long but I’d rather watch you and Chris for an hour than some rubbish on Channel 4. Far more entertaining!
Guy's don't have to explain to us. Just keep doing what you are doing. I personally love them. I always feel made up for you guys when it all goes together.
Never seen Rob so happy dare i say even more than when he got the Lambo , watching him all excited and buzzing made the video for me. Great video as always guys thank you.
Great news on the Bentley lads!!!! With regards to the way things are filmed, I’m extremely happy as I’m sure a majority of the subscribers are with the way you do it. You both put in so much hard work and I’m just grateful this channel exists and we get to see what you do.
Absolute top video, love the true reactions Chris “depends how much your going to waffle 😂, your reaction every time when an awkward motor starts is priceless & finally how big is your black book of contacts 👍👍
I'm impressed that you have stayed with it for so long, I would have given up by now. Big up to Chris - suggested it might have been a reversed polarity problem in the very first video. He's a clever old so and so and no doubt about it. Hope you make a good profit from this one. You guys deserve it for your dogged determination and running around all over the place.
Rob, I agree with Barry I grinned when Chris said " It depends how much you're going to waffle" classic. Also was the mileage 19148 miles. Great video as always gents.
You're excitement when it fired into life is why I love this channel! It shows how genuine you are! Glad the Bentley is finally getting closer to being back on the road!
Nice. Nothing like that feeling when a car you've spent days on making little headway finally kicks into life. Good going guys. Made up for you both on this one.
As always, top notch video and a great update. One of the features of this channel is the format and fact that it’s raw - don’t need any GoPro or fancy editing, just keep it real as you do. Thanks for the ongoing efforts in providing excellent content, stay safe Gents, Cheers 👍🏽🙂
Absolutely fantastic as always. Rob, you and Chris don't have to explain yourselves. You both do a job 100 percent. Joy to watch. Fantastic video, as always. 👍🏻
Hi guys, I'm an elderly man nowadays but I've been around cars all my life in an amateur way, built a few rally cars, reshelled a few fords, did a lot of rallying as a driver and organiser ect, now I'm retired I can't begin to tell you how much I look forward to your videos, your two great lads, so infectious and honest, keep up the good work, you make my sunshine 🌞🌞
Rob……that feeling when the ‘B’ started on the first turn of the key…..I was right there with you fella 👍🏻 There’s no better feeling than hearing a motor spring into life after so much toil & frustration. Just….keep on doing what you’re doing (Chris as well)…..2 absolutely decent, genuine, straight up blokes, doing a great job, with no bull 🙏🏻❤️
I’ve said it before, you guys do a fantastic job of entertaining us and acquiring projects to keep us entertained thank you both for all your hard work and dedication to this channel which I know makes you far less money than it would in the USA 👍🏻🏴
The lovley way you boys tackle these projects with such a methodical analytical aproach... Using those years of experience. you where always gonna crack this one.
"depends how much you're gunna waffle" 😂😂 class 👌 Totally fried that ecu, definitely toast 😂 Love your enthusiasm when it fired Rob, massive step forward!! Good luck getting the rest sorted 👍
I work in auto motive manufacturing and a bit of advice for anybody with electrical problems before you go spending money on parts. Check all cables and connectors and remove connectors to check for electrical over strees (E.OS.)on the pins of the modules. You might smell E.O.S. without having to open any modules but in this case you couldn't. I can see that the PCB is completely fried in the area where the voltage regulator blew up in my experience this will damage other modules connected to the E.C.U. but the damage will not always show immediately.
Quite frankly, those Bentley "Specialists\dealerships" should be ashamed of themselves. Why don't these overpaid people want to own the problem and desire to get to the bottom of it? To plug in and say "No communication, can't help" says it all. They haven't got a clue if "computer says no". They know nothing. They should be consulting with the factory and expanding their abilities and knowledge. Shame on them.
@Paul Desmond. Yeah, "fitters" replacing failed or broken parts. Not proper motor engineers/electricians/technicians in the 21st century. Can't see them graduating into the world of electric vehicles, can you? Stay safe and well.
they don't get enough ecu work to specialize - if the first fault is no coms then you are opening up a hornets nest that needs someone like diag dan to fault find it - if you watch his channel, you'll see that the most unconnected issue can cause the most unsuspected faults.
You can’t beat or pay for all this enthusiasm. Always brilliant to watch your vlogs and see the real joy in doing what you love. Flipping marvellous. Cheers Colin
Brilliant gents. It’s great to see progress being made and the car coming to life. What a long journey this has been. It shows the complexity of these cars, and the work ( and cost ) involved in resolving any issue. Great job guys…… Cheers
Hearing you cheer when it started up, and then seeing your huge grin just made my day. Your perseverance has paid off. The great thing about your videos is that they are so honest. No one else does three videos a week. Keep up the great work.
@salvage rebuilds UK - For future reference, the ECU's you have there are based on the Volkswagen type, meaning the immobiliser is either in the Cluster, OR a separate immo box which reads the code from the key. When you swap the ECU's, as long as they're identical you can open them both up and in most cases you can swap the little 8-pin chip (known as an EEPROM) inside which holds the immobiliser (actually the VIN number) data. Even thought the old ECU was cooked, it's unlikely that the chip was damaged, so swapping it over would likely still work fine. It's a 5 minute job for anyone who can solder carefully, and after doing so you've essentially changed the identiy of the new ECU to the same as the old one, and the vehicle should start fine.
Brilliant to be back on the Bentley,been waiting for this one , nearly there guys with this one, compulsive viewing,credit to you both,for fantastic videos ,thanks guys
Westminster Salvage is awesome. I bought so many parts for my Arnage and Turbo R, Carl and I became friends! He shipped everything to the US. Highly recommended!
I don't want to put any sort of damper on the Bentley, but reverse polarity from a car battery can do all sorts of major damage. The burnt missing bits inside the ECU were the protection diodes which just evaporated. Good news that the ECU change has proven okay for most of it, but I think there may be many other problems caused by the battery reversal.
I think I may have mentioned this in the last video on this car. My friends Brother did the same thing on a Mercedes, it blew the big main fuse and fortunately that was all. There is a term in the electrical world it is called 'Descrimination' too complicated to go into here but provided it works as in the theory I think we may be OK. The wipers and other things work so I am hopeful.👍
Absolutely made up for the pair of you ! Hearing that thing fire made my day, still can’t believe a car like that doesn’t have a fusible link to protect the ECU from frying but like you say maybe somebody stuck 24v up it ! Great vid guys , wish you all the luck in the world with this one 👍
First button I press on my iPad in the morning is the RUclips button the second is the SRUK button. Please do not change a thing it is ideal the way it is. Now I must not start waffling!!! Without doubt the best duo on RUclips. Cheers,
Yessssss your on it now lads 👊, im sure all your subs appreciate how much effort you put into the videos, its so time consuming but sooooo worth it 👏👏👏👏👏👏 keeps us hooked 👌👌👌
I learned this lesson year back with a VW Golf that threw a cam sensor fault then, when that was replaced, another fault and another etc. In the end we opened the ECU and found something pretty similar. Since then, an ECU check has been high on my list for anything throwing random faults.
Love watching your videos guys. I do awkward repairs on circuit boards, and micro soldering repairs, I would gladly try and repair the old one for you, what do you have to lose? Let me know. Another option is I could swap the chips between the two boards for you, that would get it working with the old data…
I transferred the data on a Porsche Cayenne ECU which is very close to the Bentley ECU reading straight off the board with a piggy back to transfer imob coding data rather than send the car 600 miles to get it recoded. The mileage can also be corrected over OBD2 on these vehicles using a digiprog 3. Porsche and Bentley electrical systems of cars of this age share many common components. Alternators rectifiers are prone to partially fail injecting AC into the system, on mine causing a fault on the AC controller showing 'high voltage on pin 31'. Much of the dash is also shared with a cayenne.
Thanks a lot for whatever effort you put in Rob & Chris. It just shows how easy it is to fry an electronic component if your not 100% correct in your emergency starting process. I call my workmate The Nose because me can smell the burnt processor’s through the casing. Hope all the resets go okay with the battleship of a Bentley.
Rob always love your enthusiasm when something fires up that's been causing you both grief. Great news you have some brilliant people helping with this car.
Glad you have been able to move to upmarket cars 🚗 and able to elaborate with those services able to cater for them. Hope it produces a satisfactory turnaround for both of you. Regards Vernon.
Don’t change your filming, it’s great and real the way it is. The way you and Chris are honest about the ups and downs of the job is the reason the channel is so popular.
Good news is in short supply at the moment so thanks for sharing your joy, chaps. I've never heard you yell like that before when an engine has fired up, Rob, your enthusiasm is so infectious.
Looks like a major turning point in getting the Bentley up and running has been reached. Thank you for all of your quality content it is keeping me entertained whilst in Greece.
When the Bentley fired up it exceeded even your usual excitement levels! Don't change a thing about the channel, it's great as it is filmed on your phone.
Rob - your phone can record at twice the resolution and clarity than it's currently at - look in settings then go to Camera, set it to 4K 60FPS. Also select HDR to on. Will be just as good quality as a GoPro.
I agree, Don't change your video style, it is what it is 95% of youtubers get popular and then just start getting vanky with long intros, camera angles and music. Long arse waffling updates etc etc. Dunno who keeps asking about stuff, never see it that much on youtube, must be instagram. Be true to what made your channel great is what I say.
It’s alive , well done chaps for sticking with it , it’s been a long haul but your honest standpoint and joy when it fire up … I was jumping up and down with you !!!
You are spot on about editing and go-pro etc. Content is king, if you have good content (and you do), then people will watch it even if the filming/editing/sound is a bit poor. I have watched plenty of youtubers who use lots of expensive cameras, high end computers and fancy editing software and do a great job editing, and whilst the content might be nice to watch, often, it lacks any 'action' (bit like most of TV).
Rob the utter relief and delight on your face says it all - Let’s hope the immobiliser key & Cct work out - worth checking the battery output as this caused many spurious faults to be thrown up on earlier projects but all being well looks like you both have got a well deserved result 👍👏👏👏👏💥
Just to say it's all appreciated with having to keep up with the video's and letting us have a glimpse into your world, it's really fascinating - I also shouted when it turned over, so close!!
You are correct about both the 24V and Reverse Polarity, if it was just Reverse Pol then the Rev Pol Protection Diode would not have blown itself off the PCB along with some Caps, but Rev Pol and 24V = "Tic Boom"!
Good stuff lads. I don't work on cars, but that diode that was blown on that ECU is exactly the kind of thing we repair. Tracks and things can be repaired too, no problem. Consider not scrapping that ECU, because it could have repair value.
having a known good identical unit on hand would help in tracing out where the destroyed tracks go and repair with bodge wires and epoxy. i have done something similar to save an irreplacable ECU for an oddball JDM car.
I love how excited you get Rob when it turned over. Don't get me wrong I'd be the same, it just put a smile on my face. Keep it going guys, great work and great commitment
Good luck , it goes to show to have these people who know and respect you. You are held in such high regard to us all who watch with baited breath and everything crossed that it gives the result eke long for
Loved this two parter.It was an edge of the seat marathon of "is it gonna or not" tension. I so wanted t see this beautiful lady of the road breath into life again . So close too! As ever Rob, yours and Chris's honesty, dedication and enthusiasm shine. I cant wait to see the conclusion of this lady's story and hear both of you fill the garage with cheers of triumph. all the best, Kenny.
Hi Rob if you get an electronics repairer to swap the ST95040 eprom from your old unit to your new unit then that will transfer all original immobiliser data stored on the chip and car will just think new ecu is the original one and car will run without issues.
"Depends how much you're going to waffle" Chris with the comedy gold again 😂😂
We all love a bit of Rob waffling haha
😂😂😂
Alot...But we all love it. 😄😄😄🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
Just had to laugh .. Robs got plenty of bunny…
Beat me to it Tyrone - I laughed out loud when Chris said that !
Rob's reaction bit like a lottery win, looks like another SRUK miracle is on the cards and once again Chris's dry comments are gold.
It’s so bad that people are making you feel hounded when you are always so busy! They need to remember RUclips is secondary to your actual business! Love seeing Rob getting so excited when a non-runner starts 🤣
Rob looks so happy
Chris was dam right about the reverse polarity absolutely love the passion you two have for this car a big well done.
Lambo's , Bentley's , Vans , convertable's classics , scap runs , This shows got the lot keep em coming loving it.
Also shipping containers and ride on mowers. They've also done motorbikes and a jet ski.
Sewing machines next!!
And food mixers.
I could feel your genuine joy when that turned over. Glad it’s going in the right direction now.
As ever, loving the channel and content. You often mention about video lengths being too long but I’d rather watch you and Chris for an hour than some rubbish on Channel 4. Far more entertaining!
Guy's don't have to explain to us. Just keep doing what you are doing.
I personally love them.
I always feel made up for you guys when it all goes together.
Never seen Rob so happy dare i say even more than when he got the Lambo , watching him all excited and buzzing made the video for me. Great video as always guys thank you.

Pure gold! Better than any Netflix show.
It has it all: drama, comedy, suspense... and no acting, just raw life unfolding in front of our own eyes
Absolute top video, love the true reactions Chris “depends how much your going to waffle 😂, your reaction every time when an awkward motor starts is priceless & finally how big is your black book of contacts 👍👍
Probably on volume 101 of the black book.😁
I must admit Chris’s comment did make me laugh 🤣
I'm impressed that you have stayed with it for so long, I would have given up by now. Big up to Chris - suggested it might have been a reversed polarity problem in the very first video. He's a clever old so and so and no doubt about it. Hope you make a good profit from this one. You guys deserve it for your dogged determination and running around all over the place.
Rob, I agree with Barry I grinned when Chris said " It depends how much you're going to waffle" classic. Also was the mileage 19148 miles. Great video as always gents.
I love Robs reaction when they get the motor’s going,.. I’m sure Chris is just as amused,.. great stuff guys 👍👍🤣
You're excitement when it fired into life is why I love this channel! It shows how genuine you are! Glad the Bentley is finally getting closer to being back on the road!
Nice. Nothing like that feeling when a car you've spent days on making little headway finally kicks into life. Good going guys. Made up for you both on this one.
Love the car and love your work, the amount of passion that you put into these cars are amazing. Keep it up
Chris, you are a natural narrator/communicator. Right across the country, I bet this one made everyone's day.
As always, top notch video and a great update. One of the features of this channel is the format and fact that it’s raw - don’t need any GoPro or fancy editing, just keep it real as you do. Thanks for the ongoing efforts in providing excellent content, stay safe Gents, Cheers 👍🏽🙂
Hi Rob, what happen to this bentley and are we going to see this on the channel again.?
Absolutely fantastic as always.
Rob, you and Chris don't have to explain yourselves. You both do a job 100 percent. Joy to watch.
Fantastic video, as always. 👍🏻
Hi guys, I'm an elderly man nowadays but I've been around cars all my life in an amateur way, built a few rally cars, reshelled a few fords, did a lot of rallying as a driver and organiser ect, now I'm retired I can't begin to tell you how much I look forward to your videos, your two great lads, so infectious and honest, keep up the good work, you make my sunshine 🌞🌞
Great to hear the big Bentley fire up even if it was only for the briefest of moments.
Keep up the good work guys 👍
Rob……that feeling when the ‘B’ started on the first turn of the key…..I was right there with you fella 👍🏻 There’s no better feeling than hearing a motor spring into life after so much toil & frustration. Just….keep on doing what you’re doing (Chris as well)…..2 absolutely decent, genuine, straight up blokes, doing a great job, with no bull 🙏🏻❤️
Always gives me a laugh and a great big smile when you get an awkward one started. Been really looking forward to this one. 10/10 as usual guys 👌
Bravo for keeping to your standards Rob and putting content out rather than nonsense. Cracking update.
I’ve said it before, you guys do a fantastic job of entertaining us and acquiring projects to keep us entertained thank you both for all your hard work and dedication to this channel which I know makes you far less money than it would in the USA 👍🏻🏴
The lovley way you boys tackle these projects with such a methodical analytical aproach...
Using those years of experience. you where always gonna crack this one.
Never heard Rob so excited when he was getting the car plugged in 😂😂 brilliant video
Rob your enthusiasm and tenacity to get this lovely motor going is brilliant. Best of luck.
"depends how much you're gunna waffle" 😂😂 class 👌
Totally fried that ecu, definitely toast 😂
Love your enthusiasm when it fired Rob, massive step forward!!
Good luck getting the rest sorted 👍

Like most dealerships they are all just fitters that work there.......computer says no......😂
They cannot be bothered unless you offer them 'loads a money' even then I think they would be clueless. 🥺
Absolutely,in an ideal world they should at least have a working 'Test' one to temp fit to the car like we've just seen to rule things in/out
@Paul Desmond. Yeah, "fitters" replacing failed or broken parts. Not proper motor engineers/electricians/technicians in the 21st century. Can't see them graduating into the world of electric vehicles, can you? Stay safe and well.

I just love the fact that everyone else was beaten by this, even Bentley!! You kept going and its pretty much done
Patience always pays off in the end.
Defo looking forward to the next one on this.
You can’t beat or pay for all this enthusiasm. Always brilliant to watch your vlogs and see the real joy in doing what you love. Flipping marvellous. Cheers Colin

Fuses hopefully limited other damage. Clearly there are other small bits the autoelectricians are looking at, wiper motors etc.
Rob don't change the filming keep it raw and ruff edge is the best way to go that's keeping it real and that's why most people watch your channel
Absolutely made up for the pair of you ! Hearing that thing fire made my day, still can’t believe a car like that doesn’t have a fusible link to protect the ECU from frying but like you say maybe somebody stuck 24v up it ! Great vid guys , wish you all the luck in the world with this one 👍

First button I press on my iPad in the morning is the RUclips button the second is the SRUK button. Please do not change a thing it is ideal the way it is. Now I must not start waffling!!! Without doubt the best duo on RUclips. Cheers,
Excellent news about the Bentley lads. Must be a huge sigh of relief being so close to completion.
Fantastic video and I love that you have light at the end of the tunnel. Thanks guys.
Yessssss your on it now lads 👊, im sure all your subs appreciate how much effort you put into the videos, its so time consuming but sooooo worth it 👏👏👏👏👏👏 keeps us hooked 👌👌👌
100% understand the phone and editing thing! Leave others to the fancy editing. Quality content guys!
Lovely car, I've always loved those shape bentley's.
This is just wonderful. Well done for explaining so well the efforts you have made to get this car running.. Loving it!
Chris is such a perfectionist - he even puts the packaging back in box neatly 👍👍👍👍
Good workshop practice. Clear up as you go along.
Great video lads.👍
I learned this lesson year back with a VW Golf that threw a cam sensor fault then, when that was replaced, another fault and another etc. In the end we opened the ECU and found something pretty similar. Since then, an ECU check has been high on my list for anything throwing random faults.
Love watching your videos guys.
I do awkward repairs on circuit boards, and micro soldering repairs, I would gladly try and repair the old one for you, what do you have to lose? Let me know.
Another option is I could swap the chips between the two boards for you, that would get it working with the old data…
Send me your Adress and price to instagram I’ll get it in the post 👍
Yep a good electronics guy with all the test gear could repair this .. got to be worth a go .. at least the board isn’t potted ..
I transferred the data on a Porsche Cayenne ECU which is very close to the Bentley ECU reading straight off the board with a piggy back to transfer imob coding data rather than send the car 600 miles to get it recoded. The mileage can also be corrected over OBD2 on these vehicles using a digiprog 3. Porsche and Bentley electrical systems of cars of this age share many common components.
Alternators rectifiers are prone to partially fail injecting AC into the system, on mine causing a fault on the AC controller showing 'high voltage on pin 31'. Much of the dash is also shared with a cayenne.
Bought a tear to my eye when it started
Love how excited you both still get, the energy is fantastic 😍.
Fantastic! Your excitement when it fired up was brilliant. Two of the most genuine guys on RUclips.
Just keep up the great work, love you guys.
Thanks a lot for whatever effort you put in Rob & Chris. It just shows how easy it is to fry an electronic component if your not 100% correct in your emergency starting process. I call my workmate The Nose because me can smell the burnt processor’s through the casing. Hope all the resets go okay with the battleship of a Bentley.
9th Slava Ukrani 💛💙 Absolutely delighted you got that sorted out... made my day.
Rob always love your enthusiasm when something fires up that's been causing you both grief.
Great news you have some brilliant people helping with this car.
Glad you have been able to move to upmarket cars 🚗 and able to elaborate with those services able to cater for them.
Hope it produces a satisfactory turnaround for both of you.
Regards Vernon.
Don’t change your filming, it’s great and real the way it is. The way you and Chris are honest about the ups and downs of the job is the reason the channel is so popular.
Good news is in short supply at the moment so thanks for sharing your joy, chaps. I've never heard you yell like that before when an engine has fired up, Rob, your enthusiasm is so infectious.
Looks like a major turning point in getting the Bentley up and running has been reached. Thank you for all of your quality content it is keeping me entertained whilst in Greece.
Fair play for not just giving up and handing it back. I'm sure it will pay off for you and it has provided great content. Well done Gents..
The fact that you can get three videos of this high quality out every week and all filmed on your phone is amazing. Keep doing what you're doing lads.
When the Bentley fired up it exceeded even your usual excitement levels! Don't change a thing about the channel, it's great as it is filmed on your phone.
The joy in your voice Rob, honest passion.
Rob - your phone can record at twice the resolution and clarity than it's currently at - look in settings then go to Camera, set it to 4K 60FPS. Also select HDR to on. Will be just as good quality as a GoPro.
Love the variation on the vehicles, it really keeps my interest up and your enthusiasm Rob when that motor fired was infectious. Love the channel
I agree, Don't change your video style, it is what it is 95% of youtubers get popular and then just start getting vanky with long intros, camera angles and music. Long arse waffling updates etc etc. Dunno who keeps asking about stuff, never see it that much on youtube, must be instagram. Be true to what made your channel great is what I say.
Before my grandad past away 3 months ago his dream car was a Bentley and to hear it run put a big cheesy grin on my face
It’s alive , well done chaps for sticking with it , it’s been a long haul but your honest standpoint and joy when it fire up … I was jumping up and down with you !!!
You are spot on about editing and go-pro etc. Content is king, if you have good content (and you do), then people will watch it even if the filming/editing/sound is a bit poor.

Best of luck guys - always a pleasure to watch/listen. Have a safe and nice day all. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
Loved the cheer when she turned over. Brilliant feeling. Well Done lads brilliant work!
Another awesome video guys. Better than any other TV programme. If your ever stuck and in Anglesey North Wales please get in touch.
You are correct about both the 24V and Reverse Polarity, if it was just Reverse Pol then the Rev Pol Protection Diode would not have blown itself off the PCB along with some Caps, but Rev Pol and 24V = "Tic Boom"!
Hi guys, do not change, I love the way you are so real!
I’m so happy for you guys to now know it runs! Just sucks about that ecm but hearing it run for a few seconds was quite the treat.
Good stuff lads. I don't work on cars, but that diode that was blown on that ECU is exactly the kind of thing we repair. Tracks and things can be repaired too, no problem. Consider not scrapping that ECU, because it could have repair value.
having a known good identical unit on hand would help in tracing out where the destroyed tracks go and repair with bodge wires and epoxy. i have done something similar to save an irreplacable ECU for an oddball JDM car.
Nice. These are the perfect blend of modern capability but proper Bentley looks
I have tried NOT to ask about the Bentley but I can’t lie I was really excited to see it in the thumbnail! Let’s get it all fixed up and sold ! 👍🇨🇦
Brilliant video Rob and Chris, love the big yes from you Rob and Chris just knows his stuff.
Perseverance wins the day. Well done to both of you for sticking with this.
I love how excited you get Rob when it turned over. Don't get me wrong I'd be the same, it just put a smile on my face. Keep it going guys, great work and great commitment

Amazed you produce this content editing on a phone. Proof that it's the content that matters. Brilliant!
Loved this two parter.It was an edge of the seat marathon of "is it gonna or not" tension. I so wanted t see this beautiful lady of the road breath into life again . So close too! As ever Rob, yours and Chris's honesty, dedication and enthusiasm shine. I cant wait to see the conclusion of this lady's story and hear both of you fill the garage with cheers of triumph. all the best, Kenny.
Hi Rob if you get an electronics repairer to swap the ST95040 eprom from your old unit to your new unit then that will transfer all original immobiliser data stored on the chip and car will just think new ecu is the original one and car will run without issues.
It’s the truth of the content that makes these videos and not the quality of the filming… well done (keep doing what you’re doing it’s perfect)
