Carwow, can you confirm that Mat and everyone else is alright. I get it's the first of April, but this could be really serious. 🙏 R.I.P. to VW Group SUV's (2005 - 2023)
RIP pal. Matthew Watson 5/6/1979 - 1/4/2023 Gone but not forgotten. Our deep condolences are with the carwow team at this present time. I request all the viewers and worldwide journalists to take a minute of silence in respect for Matt.
Lmao, the post-explosion ear-ringing sound at the end 🤣 so dramatic, but also was pretty foolish of him to stand so close to those engine bays while doing this
Well, thermally, it seems to be a much better engine. It's correctly venting all it's thermal heat into the coolant, hence BOOM. The BMW just heated and cooked the oil and the block. This says volumes about the Porsche. MUCH more resilient design.
Bmw are the worst car you can buy so? They are bottom of reliability charts and top of engine failure rates. B58 has became the new N47 as they all get issues at 40k miles onwards.
I am sure that if they came out (seriously) hurt they wouldn't be posting this online like this. That being said, I was more worried for the guys in the car, in case it would catch fire or something like that.
At least the thumbnail didn't state R.I.P. Mat Waston & Crew. I really do hope they weren't seriously injured after standing so close to the vehicle. He truly puts his body on the line for top content.
The very fact that they put this video up on RUclips, would probable tell he survived, but... That was a big explosion and a lot of hot steam, and we just had two videos before this, where Mat was not actually present. Wish you well Mat. 👍
The BMWs cooling system was definitely broken. You can tell by the smoke not being blown around by the radiator fan. Also, not having oil won’t ruin the engine that quickly.
I dunno if its a cold start would 9 minutes of no load get the engine fully warmed up before the bearings cook off and grenade? And yes no oil ruins engines pretty fast. The little film of oil quickly cooks off and its all about the specific alloys used in the bearings and connecting rods as to how quickly it heats until catastrophic failure. What would have likely made a difference is the quality of oil left over in the engines. If you did a fresh oil change, ran it for a minute, then drained it all out i bet you could significantly increase the run time.
normally i wouldve agreed, but considering they filmed from several different angles, the engine being overheated for 20 straight minutes and the mention of steam.. yea that coolant resuvar definitely did pop
@@streeatbeat I think the explosion is real but they where not stading there when it happend just pause the video right when explosion happend and you will understand.
Don't bother. I own one of those BMW X5s. They're shit cars. They're full of stuff that any shade tree mechanic would know is stupid. Just tonight mine developed a problem with the siphon pump in the fuel tank; you can't run it below 1/4 of a tank without it stalling...All because BMW decided to build the fuel system out of pop-together plastic bits instead of proper threaded connections with compression seals. It's ALWAYS something with these cars.
These experiments are dangerous and can seriously injured you or anyone in close proximity I sincerely hope Mat and anyone else close by are well if there is any injuries I hope they are not serious or they are hardly noticeable! Stay positive Car WOW team and fans, we support you!
I had a buddy who drove a ‘95 Toyota Corolla for 6 months with no oil. It had an oil leak and had been bled dry when he got tired of refilling the oil. He literally drove it bone dry for 6 months before it seized up on him. But when another friend of ours fixed the leak and put oil in, the car ran again without a hitch! Craziest thing we ever witnessed…
That is japanese reliability my friend,,i know many cars hondas mitsubishis Toyotas you name it that experienced the same thing and still going strong,,japanese engines are bullet proof no doubt
Owned a Rover 600 from 1995 and had it for two years. As the car was based on a Honda Accord it had the 2 Liter Honda engine. One day to work the radiator sprung a leak and emptied itself in like 5 mins. Drove like 15 miles to work from where it happened with no water in the car. Smelled a bit hot but still worked. Then drove back like 30 odd miles filling up every now and then but the car worked great and no knocking. Got a new radiator but that blew up as apparently the head gasket had gone pumping air in the the radiator so eventually scrapped the car. Japanese engines last forever with the right maintenance.
I’m presuming an April Fool joke here, that said, I have a friend with a 2007 Volvo V70 D5, he unknowingly cracked its sump and lost its oil, it’s dashboard was not working (relatively common on these) so he had no warning lights but it sounded rough, after a week of running it to and from work we took a look and found the dipstick completely dry and barely nothing left in the sump. One replacement sump and oil refill later, it fired up and thee years later is somehow still running and in daily use.
@@brucehauser6826 never even thought of an April fools joke but now when you're mentioning it I did wonder about the Magneti Marelli as that's normally what you find in Italian and French cars and not in a Volvo as they're normally use Bosch electronics... Volvo engines are like very very ridged and the old red block engines last like forever.

I drove a Mercedes W124 3.0L Diesel from Brighton to Leeds to Brighton with no oil in it by accident. And I mean none! Filled it up when got back to the garage. It's got 285k miles on the clock now and I did that at 190k miles.
I'm not surprised at the Porsche lasting so long. Much as I respect the BMW engine (RIP to that one), my parents had a Porsche 924 for over 36 years and the engine had done almost 250,000 miles. Still, at least both cars (and I'm hoping not Matt) met a fitting ending!
Safe? That is what happens when engines sieze up, they throw metal out. He's been sticking his head right in there telling them to revv them up as well.
All through this video I thought Matt was very brave (or mad) to be so close to these cars while running with NO OIL, I was expecting an explosion to happen, and WHAT AN EXPLOSION 💥. I hope everyone was ok, please DON'T repeat that test in future, or if you do at least stand WELL BACK. That ending genuinely got me worried.
I feel so bad because one time in my 1.8 Cruze(same engine as an Astra) I'd resealed the sump myself and after a month oil didn't want to circulate and more recently I accidentally lugged it too hard up a steep hill, still around but the thought of no oil is horrible Get well soon mate!
Hope Mat is fine and good! I think Mat got burns in his face because that was a lot of boiling coolant splashing into his face! Mat should think more about his safety in future videos!
RIP Matt!! He's a good man, with great sense of humour. I feel sad for his loss! Can't imagine CARWOW without Matt! may he rests in Peas! Goodbye MATT :(
The Porsche engine has that nasty noise because without engine oil & oil pressure the timing chain tensioner has no tension and lets the chain whip and grind.
