That whistle is the sound of money being sucked down the drain.
I clicked the video just to make a joke like this. It goes it's whistling at all the money you're about to spend on it.
Its only money
touraneindanke ...no it's not, money is everything, and if you think differently, than I suggest you go live homeless, without a dime to your name...I guarantee your attitude will adjust accordingly...
When he opened the bonnet it sounded like a boiling kettle, ready to make a cup of tea.. very British :)
Only it's a German VAG engine - so the fact that there is something wrong with it is very German, because they are all shitheaps, especially anything from VAG.
😂
@@Beer_Dad1975 Gotta ask, do you by any chance own a audi or a volkswagen? 😏
@@IN-pb4qs LOL, not anymore and never again.
😂😂😂😂😂
75% of the time, Wizard is justifying his costs and all. Wizard we trust you bro. We know you’re not ripping anyone off. Wish I had a mechanic like you man.
Normally the labour cost is the same for everything, in the UK at least. Youd only pay more if you went to a dealer or specialist.
@@BlatentlyFakeName sometimes a good mechanic is hard to find, in America at least
Sad thing is, he gets questioned A LOT as people don't trust even him....Everyone always thinks they are being ripped off, Which I get it...The shady tree mechanics have ruined it for guys like Wizard, The Ninja (And dare I say Scotty, lol)

Bentley: has soft close doors.
Mercedes Benz w123 in the background: has “bank vault” close doors.
The Mrs Wizard cameos are so funny. Randomly popping in to make sure the seed is planted to get her expensive stuff. Hahaha. Love it
Whistling sound, in a Bentley Sir?
It's called admiration,Sir, carry on as you are.....
It's tea time and the kettle is on the boil. And I'm not whistling Dixie!
Car Wizard, you know the whistle sound comes from the diaphragm of the PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) system. With a diaphragm torn, at idle the engine creates vacuum and makes the whistle sound.
The beautiful thing about his whole movement is Mrs wizard is likely to own a Bentley.
It's a secret but actually they only drive Maybach

BENTLEY - It is clearly shown on the Door Sill 11:34 BENTLEY on 'Door Sill' not Bentley
Make sue=re you see what you are actually looking at. Open eyes and pay attention to detail.
Learn the difference. It is not difficult.
Can we talk about how happy of a married couple they are. I really enjoy seeing that on their videos too.
I love the organ music interlude while we are pondering the Wizard's question to us. I can visualize the Wizard tickling the ivories on a Hammond Electric Organ while looking blissfully skyward.
"Push the B!" The customer would of known that if he watched Doug
Doug is a douche
But that would require us to watch Doug...
Who is doug
each1teachonetruth
He’s some metro guy who acts feminine
i think he did a review of a $50000 used Bentley, like it was a good deal. it had low miles but if anything goes wrong🤯$$$
What's cool about these engines is that in a normal car, you could replace the PCV yourself, in this thing you gotta pay a technician over a grand to do the same job
Yup, 10 min. job on most cars.
Yeah. Cool.
Or you have to just...not be absolutely incompetent
I love when Americans say "British" words...
Bonnet instead of hood!!!
Great video there Weeezard
As if those "British" words are more classy. An inferiority complex, no less.
paulparoma Just remember if it wasn’t for us you would be speaking Spanish right now
Alexander Thomson More than half of the world speaks Spanish, I wouldn’t see that as an accomplishment, but whatever helps you sleep at night.
I am quite certain that this fine motorcar consumes a great deal of petrol. 😄
LOL
Mrs. Wizard "Did you buy it for me ?
Wizard "NO its not bought for you we not reached that level yet"
I laughed out loud at that line.
Like many, I found this channel via Hoovie, and I have stuck around. I really enjoy the content you put out and the way you present it. Keep it up!
We had a ford escort zx2 in our shop years back that the elbow from the PCV to the tube had turned to goo. Replaced it with a good chunk of braided heater hose and that car is still running down the road as far as I know. Thank you for all of your time sharing your experiences with us here on youtube.
Worst vacuum leak I've had. When I forgot to put the canister back into my Dyson correctly.....
The whole VW family of cars are brilliant for a mechanics to learn about every possible fault, because they get them all, you just wait.
Random exploding turbo was my favourite :\
those crafty germans
Mister Nobody Makes a great trick at any party!
My timing chain going through the atmosphere is my favorite VW/Audi perk. ☺️😊
Ultimate "Endless Money Pit".
I just recently got a 530xi wagon from an auction with the bmw n52 engine, the car wouldn't run smoothly and misfired badly, every single vacuum line was broken, the PCV valve was clogged and the engine was burning oil. I removed the entire intake and rebuilt the unit, replaced the DISA valves and all the PVC lines, heater and valve, runs smooth as butter now. vacuum lines are no joke in these german motors and are such a common issue that i've had at some point on every german engine i've owned/worked on.
1st things 1st. After viewing countless of your videos, I got to give a BIG APPLAUSE to Mrs Wizard for her EXCELLENT sound editing. Namely, she's balanced the jingles to be slightly quieter than the "live recording". What does that mean ? That means that I can watch your videos in the middle of the night, at a comfortable low volume, and never get afraid that some music will just blast through the small loudspeakers and wake up my son. TWO THUMBS UP!
And her video editing skills are really remarkable too. It's always CLEAR and well exposed.
Just a pleasure to watch every time.
At 8:33, if the customer finds too expensive, you can tell them to take it home and fix it yourself. 😂or take it to the dealer. Always keep a good relationship with your mechanic. Good mechanics love to help people. But remember, they are not charity, they need to pay for the rent, lifts, tools and the list goes on.
I'm at the 2:14 point and I think it is a serpentine belt idler bearing gone bad.
I thought that
My guess is it's metal on metal...probably a bearing...I'd also guess an idler pulley
yeah I was guessing that too....when he opened the hood though the sound was different. I have a pulley going on my F150 and it is more of a squeal than a whistle
I haven't even started it and I think it's a serpentine belt idler because my 2002 Jeep Wrangler had an intermittent high pitched whistle, and it ended up being the idler pulley.
About to watch video. Could be a tiny air leak (pressure or vacuum) if it's whistling. edit: 2:18, sounds like a bearing (pulley).
Just love your content. Make sure Hoovies keeps sending those cars to you. Watch every day. Stay safe during those hurricane times. Especially with the COVID. I thought the sound was a belt pulley. Then a pulley would be more of a grinding noise. Take care.
A beautiful car indeed. I like soft close doors too because I don't like slamming car doors. Sometimes, on (most) cars without this feature, I end up closing and opening the door multiple times to get the force just right (not too hard, but not too soft either), which is annoying. But I know what the Wizard means when an unsuspecting passenger slams a soft close door shut. The alternative is to forewarn your companion not to use force, but then you can come across as being a bit of a tosser. Actually, I believe soft close doors are primarily intended for chauffeur-driven cars, so that the driver doesn't have to slam the door on their passenger after holding it open for them (so no warning necessary).
6:41 This is why the Wizard works on Bentleys.
That's the sound of MONEY
Shout out Mrs Wizard, always positive and kind.
8:35 Thank you for answering this question and providing the reasoning behind charging more for servicing a car with a luxury badge. It's a question I've had for a while
Gotta pay to play. Problem is, people see the sticker price on these cars when they were new at $250k then see them used at $50k 5 years later, they're thinking they're getting a deal. It's still a Bentley, whether it's 2014 or 2020. Average people can afford to BUY them used, but not necessarily keep them fixed and maintained. The name on the badge hasn't changed. Same for Mercedes. These cars all have horrible used car values which makes them so desirable for people to buy them used. Until they have to do service on them.
Sadly 🤦🏽
Not enough money to buy them new = not enough money to buy them used & keep'em in driving condition.
No exception.
Same problem with Ducatis!
I always drove by this street parked Benz for sale. It was a 2009 C300, but for like $7,500. At typical mileage for an 11 year old car, various sources say it should be half that price. I always thought the car must be low mileage and immaculate for anyone to bite on it.
My glovebox on my 09 Corolla falls open slowly... like a Bentley.
And this is why Scotty says, "Get a Corolla!".
And it will be full of cash you've saved on servicing.
As any non american build car... I cant remember any EU car that didn't have this.. Same with the handles on the roof, they should do the same..
Jay Em should just get a credit card every thing you buy is 2% off
@@Petaretjehh There were European cars long before there was the EU. And maybe they all had those features, but it does not mean they were any good otherwise, especially compared to the best US cars.
10:40 the way u describe stuff is hilarious idk know if u know lol "u dont slam the door....you can....but"lol
bro ur a genius man ur literally like a "Car superhero" im amazed at ur patients altho at times i know it must be painful to be patent with some of these cars ur on earth to do just what ur doing
One day while I was driving my 08’ VW Jetta GLI I heard that same horrid screaming thinking it was the car that looked like it was falling apart next to me. Turns out it was me... and my PCV. Yet another reason VW Group cars are fun for a minute, and garbage the next
If I was gonna be a dead body in a trunk, I would be a dead body in a Bentley Continental trunk.
“Awe man, you don’t have to do that” I felt that keep up the good content car wizard
I'm glad Mr Wizard shows us videos like this, it curbs my desire to own a vehicle like the one in this video. While I can only imagine what it would be like to have one, I could never afford to fix it if something broke. I would wipe out my pension in one repair.
@Mr Wizard, thanks for slapping me back to reality, like a show from some years back, I have champagne and caviar dreams but a beer budget.
German engineering at it’s best. Designing the placement components in such a way that they require a lot of labor to access and replace.
Not Mercedes. Mercedes are engineered smart.
Making sure the service department survives. As far as Mercedes is concerned, back in the day they actually weren't doing well with the W126, W123 and W124 being so reliable.
@@pfsantos007 Mercedes has 100,000+ patents do the automobile since 1885 when they invented the first ever motorcycle and then 1886 car. The S class is the number one selling large luxury sedan for 48 years straight! Mercedes always leads in technology luxury and safety and they make over 45 models of vehicles that are not sub brand of like GM does with Cadillac Corvette / Chevrolet or like Toyota separate from Lexus when you add all their brand names and reliability issues together under one name Mercedes is number one. Knowledge is power the more you know! 🤗
@@JESUS_IS_GOD None of what you said proves me wrong. They're still very good, especially compared to the European competition, but are no longer the most reliable. The Japanese have that in the bag (Lexus). The push to innovate without ensuring absolute reliability and longevity has taken its toll. Now there are very reliable models, but you have to choose wisely (look at what's being used in taxi service). Not EVERY model is built like a tank, unlike the models up to the mid '90's. Now they're hit and miss. THAT'S my point.
@@JESUS_IS_GOD NOT the ones I owned. I had them from 81-89, too, and they were VERY unreliable despite perfect maintenance.
Exactly why only rich people should buy these types of cars.
Only rich people should own $222,000 vehicles?
Surely you jest!
Don’t buy or lease....rent!
@@tim3172 USED, man. that's what i meant. You can get one of these for the price of a new Camry or Accord
@@tomtheplummer7322 Turo is the way to go
Most people with real wealth are too smart to buy those things.
Love it keep posting those videos
Great instructional video 🧙♂️
Wizard why does it sound like the brake rotor resurfacing machine 😂
The whistles go wooo, woo. - Bubb Rubb
Legendary.
It's just for decorashuns. That's it and that's all.
As an E46 owner and maintainer I nailed the diagnosis immediately. I’ve done the CCV job after having the same symptoms.
Had a evap code on a late model IS300 restoration project for a yr. Passed 2 smoke tests diagnostics and dealer couldn’t pin it down after a week. Mechanic suggested (off the record) it could be an internal charcoal canister leak that was bypassing the sensor but part was $900. Had a parts car, changed myself and after 2 fillips the P0440 went away. Big win!
Just like my yacht .. wizard flexing on us 😎
Only thing similar will be the mpg
Some one needs to make a valve that plugs in the dipstick tube lol
Do a video on the S4 in the background!
Anyone wanting to be a master mechanic has to watch these videos .. so much information
Just fixed the same issue on my 2012 S6 Avant at around 80k miles. A quick Google and TSB check led me to the oil separator. It was a lot of work to replace it, but while I was down there I also replaced the turbo oil screen, check valve and O rings, which is 100% necessary on these engines to save the expensive turbos from failing!
Hi I would assume it’s some kind of vacuum maybe even the top engine cover
Didn’t Audi and Bentley extend the PCV warranty to 10/120?
Edit: Also, are you doing the turbo oil screen check valves and screens while you’re in there? They usually are toast by the mileage that that car has, and if they fail or clog, that thing is going to eat the turbos. The parts are very inexpensive, and it’s well worth it to do it while the PCV is out.
How do u know if it’s under warranty
An A4 Audi estate was stuck at my house for months due to Covid19. Loaded with equipment. The battery had 5.6 volts across it, so I couldn't even extract the key. I cleared the car, removed the boot floor and spare wheel via the rear door. Using an external battery, I opened the Powered tailgate, Removed the battery & installed my smaller backup. It started up perfectly. Cars with powered everything can be a pain in the bum.
Love you Wizard!!! You are a good person. Not much left in this world.
The only vacuum problems a BEV ever has is when the Dustbuster runs out of battery.
Guessing an engine pulley.
Lmao the comment about how you’re not supposed to slam your doors wearing a nice suit. Made me think I’ve never seen James Bond slam his doors 😂
I love these little quizzes for us to ‘diagnose’ the problem! :)
the wizards prices are very reasonable you as the car owner pays for the knowledge and experiance that the wizard has
If Bentley interiors are the wizards favorite, he definitely has to check out the current models of the continental and flying spur they nailed it 😍😍😍
Yeah, but no, it's the exterior that they certainly do not nail. The Wizards would see the wh0re-house light in the hood ornament and they'd say "Oh, how Kardashian." They'd tap the grille and say "Oh, this is just plastic now." Both are connoisseurs, and aware of how far from grace Bentley is falling. They went from catering to the landed gentry to the social influencers.
Daniel van Slooten the grille is still Metal tho you can be sure it’s not that much plastic either given the still steep price tag 🤔
It sounds like air to me. Serpintine belts squeek.
Wow, you are a great mechanic, thanks for sharing!
VERY INFORMATIVE, THANKS
My customers like that I drive a Honda Accord.
Let's them know that I am practical and not screwing them over.
Right. If one of our suppliers showed up in that thing, he would lose the account immediately.
B A, aren't you supposed to drive a black and grey GMC van with red rims? ;)
@@MarkusGrimm83 - Over priced, gas guzzling, unreliable money pits aren't practical.
So, what's your point?
@@BA-gn3qb Your initials, B A, reminded me of B. A. Baracus, the guy from the A-Team who drove the GMC van, that's all.
If your name was Michael Knight I would have asked you why you wouldn't drive a black '82 Trans Am. :)
That’s like socialist Germany. Lived here on and off 50 + years. If a successful business person drives a nice car people think they are being overcharged because they are socialist jealous idiots.
Muffler bearing.👍
Or bad piston return springs.

Be sure to fill the blinker fluid while you're in there.
Mr Wizard I like to congratulate you on the way you explain things very simple and understandable , wish you were close to Burbank Ca .
hahahah I had to go back and listen b/c I thought Mrs. Wizard said "that's a big f**ing project" instead of "that's a big fun project" and I was like "WHHAATT??" hahah. It seemed so out of character. Lol.
Still waiting for Wizzard to stick the RR V8 inside his yacht
A pitty 2 of'em would be needed... but yeah, I'm with you on that!
The whistle is the sound of money flying into your bank account 💸
I do like the way you explain problems with these Complicated cars 🚘.
It's good to see mrs.wizard!!!!
omg in million years ( yet i not a mechanic) i would never try to pull the dipstick
what? I pull my dipstick once a week at least...usually in the shower lolol

Beautiful car. However. I just see a big money pit. Still a beautiful car.

@@nakoma5 Alright Scotty......we know!
The Bentley customer is about to replace the engines on the Carver Yacht (wizard, Carvers are not yachts)
Carver makes a few yachts, their website is even called Carver Yachts. Boats generally over 40' can be considered yachts. Some mark the line at 33' as the minimum yacht standard. However, Wizard's 27' jalopy of a boat is definitely NOT a yacht. I think he refers to it as a yacht, tongue in cheek.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH I lived on the Chesapeake Bay, Deltaville VA. You didn't want a Carver in rough weather. You got what you paid for
When he first opened the trunk, I thought there was a box of doughnuts in there. Mmmm. Bentley doughnuts!
worst vacuum leak I ever heard was my first car, a.2000 BMW 528i (E39) with the m52TU engine. pcv, disa, crack intake boots, etc. I had to wrench on that POS almost everyday to get to school and work, but it taught me how to fix cars. I own a toyota and lexus :)
You made Scotty Kilmer proud.
Obviously the car is a fan of the old CBS Radio show “The Whistler.”
BMW's like to make this same type of noise when the PCV Diaphragm tears.
Same with Volvo Si6 engines.
Volvo 6 cylinder too...
And GM 1.4L Turbo engines
Exactly why I upgraded mine on my n54
NO APOSTROPHE!
BMWs, not bmw's
Unless you claim to have eye's, leg's, hand's and wear jean's...
I'd suspect a pulley if I was walking by but since it's a Bently I'd say it's completely trashed. After seeing the noise go away with the dipstick out I'm truly amazed.
thanks great video sir
German engineering: they still haven't managed to figure out a pcv system.
It's deliberate, they want to make the car unreliable and therefore obsolete in the shortest time they can get away with so the owner replaces it with the latest model.
Too many bean counters in the engineering department

@@wholeNwon no sales tax on vehicles -
@@bikeman1x11 Thanks. Didn't know that.
The car is making that noise to try to alert the authorities that its owner is a tax-dodging shitheel.
Hey! Glad you got the Milwaukee penlight! Love mine and the rubber bite grip.
I use it so much i’ve worn the rubber out on a couple but good excuse to buy another one and have spares in car and house. I also have had great luck with the Duracell green AAA batteries and charger off amazon and swap out with a fresh pair whenever it dims.
the ol removal of the dip stick trick eh.. good stuff!
It's a Volkswagen product. The issue is the manufacturer.
Well said
volkswagen make great reliable and affordable cars, idk what you mean
Because no cars from any other manufacturers break, ever. 😒
with the Montana tags i assume the owner is avoiding Kansas sales taxes through the use of a Montana based ll c that that makes a straw purchase for the actual owner, and thus legally avoiding Kansas taxes. legal but unseemly. every time you see a luxury car with Montana plates you'll know that you probably paid more to register your car than he did. thanks Montana!!!!! every time you hit a pothole you should think of that state whose name means mountain. their motto should be "turning mountains into potholes (for other states) since 1991"
Some taxes are ridiculous. Where I live it's 12% used or new, privately sold or through a dealership. They repeatedly charge 12% on a vehicle that's been sold multiple times. Straight up fraud if you ask me. If the vehicle is over $55k, you pay a luxury tax too, all the way up to 25% total, depending on value, repeatedly. If the taxes are fair and reasonable, I don't mind paying my share. It's when you get constantly ripped off that irks me.
Your complaint relies on the premise that tax revenue paid to the state is an entirely noble, selfless endeavor devoid of any waste, fraud or abuse. Tax revenues are a necessity, yes. However, I would wager that any individual in a position to afford multiple luxury vehicles is already shouldering a tax burden unlike anything someone petty enough to virtue signal over a Montana plate could fathom or will ever face in their lifetime.
Working on my 1986 Jaguar XLS V12 drove my nuts for several reasons (oil leaking from every where, etc) but small rubber vacuum hoses everywhere that would brittle and leak because there was nowhere for heat to escape from under the hood.
I figured it out Mr. Wizard! It's coming from the dip stick. LOL!
looks like it could have been a Chrysler 300 in some alternate universe.
Short and girthy just like my...
Tuna can?

...little wizard
Keep up the good work
Great video
Nice car. Although personally I'd prefer it if VW and BMW would give Bentley and Rolls Royce more independence to make their own engines... Or use ones from someone like Cosworth, who knows how to build a REALLY proper engine!
ah yes, another Montana plate tax cheat.
Lives in Texas or Florida for income tax😏😉
@@tomtheplummer7322 Or WY?
PCV on my Passat W8 froze up in the winter and blew oil out every gasket on the engine. See that VW has made lots of progress on improving the system.
Great video...could not stop laughing with you waiting for viewers to make a choice, hilarious
Hey Wizard, what is your opinion on the A4 B5 you have in the shop? Which engine do you reccomend?
This video just saved me a tonne of bucks. I’ve been thinking about buying a Continental but the service bills would frighten me too much. The figures gave me something to think on!
Cost of ownership is always higher than cost to buy used for high class luxury vehicles. The old saying if it looks expensive it is expensive. Smart people with money lease them, dumb people buy them new and used. However, if you want the flash than buy used just know 50k for the car and 50k for repairs not if but when they happen over the next 10 years.
@@desertguy1362 I was in a Jaguar dealership once collecting some parts for a friend. I asked about a price of something and the reply was “if sir has to ask, sir possibly might not be able to afford”... I live in Germany and the first question for anything is always about the labour rate. Agree with you!
Well done video. Nice.
FYI: the W12 engines were designed by Volkswagen. For the Phaeton etc. Great video.
