We bought this Mechanically Totaled Porsche Panamera S for Scrap Value, and took it straight to the dealer because it was under a Recall that might just cover it's major engine issue, and make it worth several times what we paid...

Corey Chase is Amazing ❤ I love her❤
lol I like how the dealer gave you a bunch of stuff to replace except for the part of the car that's actually broken... imagine someone getting all those repairs done that they recommended and then having the engine blow up few miles later.
that's exactly the goal since its out of warranty..
It’s actually Sam’s fault he never asked to have the check engine diagnosed because he didn’t want to pay for it so that takes all Liability rt out of the dealers hands.. he’s actually stupid he should of had the work done they recommended and then when the car was still running like shit he could of not paid for the repairs as services were not rendered properly
@@cbruno12180 His channel is all about fixing cars, so I don't know why are you calling him stupid?
Are you that STUPID?
@@cbruno12180”takes all liability right out of dealers hands” then suggest he doesn’t pay for service because the problem wasn’t fixed… lol you don’t make no sense!
@@cbruno12180 your plan is good up until the part where Sam has to fight Porsche for his $7,000 of useless repairs back.With Porsche it could come to lawyers and then its another 5 or 10 grand more to fight Porsche.
That Porsche dealership should be ashamed of their self.
They should be reported to the BBB.
@@brianatbtacprod1989 People with too much money should educate themselves before trusting a business or seller.

My mother-in-law brought her Toyota to a local Toyota Dealership for an oil change in Dublin, Ohio. They felt that she needed a brake job. She drive 3,000 miles per year and they were hardly worn. But what they did not mention the massive radiator leak that she had, the entire top of the radiator was encrusted with the pink Toyota antifreeze, what idiots...
I must say I watched the full 46 minute video and not one minute of it was boring. My eyes and ears were fixed to everything being said, all parts being observed, tested and removed. Very interesting. Boy, I sure do wish there would be mechanics like you guys in our area. You are wise, intelligent and with a whole lot of common sense. That is what you call integrity! I have subscribed.
Lol right I love cars but find these kinda video boring and slow other people I watch but this guy I watched the whole video. I wish I could fix cars like this dude but I could never.
True dat
I like how you solved the fuel pressure issue by starting with the easiest thing, removing the intake manifold and then worked your way up to the most sophisticated action of pouring in a gallon of gas.
It's cool how you casually do a timing job for a dual cam V8 on the grass under a tree. Awesome video!
Madd respect ✊ props this crap is hard in my garage with a two post lift lol
Once you get over the intimidation of it all and start doing it step by step, with a little patience you can do anything to a car (mostly lol)
Dude got skillz
I have watched videos of people doing complete engine swaps in their driveway lol

In the grass. Thanks for the pretty thorough diagnose and repair. Many years ago bought a Citroen SM with a claimed bad Maserati engine. Basically had the same problem(cam timing) but I did a full rebuild anyway.

Boycott that dealership
If you boycott them you got to boycott them all. Dealerships are like politicians - all corrupt!

This got me interested in the Panamera in general. Looks like someone took all the normal German engineering cues, but forgot to make everything hard to get to and bizarrely placed.
It’s way easier if you take the whole front of the car. It’s a a little bit more work for a lot easier chain replacement.
@@killbot9482 i didn't have any room restrictions at all. So why take the front end of the car off again???
Well replacing intake filter requires removing front bumper, also Panamera has the most electronic systems within porsche family, and some porsche indie shop straight refuse to repair them. There is a reason why 4-door porsche depreciates so much, whereas some 911 appreciates post pendenmic as well. Got one as a winter beater, can't wait to sell it this week, and back to tracking my 991.2 in summer
They understand their mistake and put chains in the other side of the engine now. Between engine and gearbox. Luckily it is engine out job now.
@@Meeliskt77 I am hoping that they still keep a tensioner piston in the cover, though. You know, to keep it Teutonic.
That you expected anything from a dealership but incompetence is astonishing.
Well done video & repair diagnosis! It was very satisfying to watch.
You seem like the only RUclipsr to stick with your original format.. no big HQ purchases and all these over the top antics that others feel like they need to do because they are more "successful." Keep things the way they are, it's what got you this far, and keeps people coming back! 👍🏻
Did you miss the part when he had the MILF in the videos. Was f’ing cringe.
There's room for all kinds of fun. Just pick the ones you like.
The dde shade is real 😂
The only thing that he got was a lift, and we never see him use it.😂
I've stopped watching car youtubers except for Samcrac, Scotty K, and robot cantina.
From the salvage yard straight to the dealership is insane LOL
😂😂😂
Dealer quoted $8,423,49 is a scam! They wont suggest to even to fix the recall for free then dont even address the vibration is a scam for sure.
$300/h labor. lol, lmao
Man I’ve done that! Bought a 2016 chevy spark with 60k miles for $500. Straight to the dealer for a replacement CVT under extended warranty. Lol.

Señor Cracc, hello from Texas. I have watched many of your videos. This is my favorite. Thanks for these. Congrats on the great fix.
Loved it. Do more long vids. Really like the deep dives and the repairs, you take us on a cool journey and love that sunshine wherever you live.
Watching Samcrac fixing a Panamera in a farm while outsmarting a dealership is like watching David vs. Goliath in modern times. 😂
Absolute chaddest.
He never asked the dealership to address the check engine light though, he just brought it in for the recall which they did fix. If he agreed to proceed with the work they quoted they know it wouldn't fix the car but he'd be liable for the work since he agreed to it, then they would quote the repair for the engine as something crazy high (he said 30 labor hrs workshop time for timing job in the video!!) and offer him a 'great trade in deal' towards one of their cars.
The real question is did he or is this whole vid bs
he didnt outsmart a dealership, they didnt want to do the work and gave him the GFY quote.
I didn't notice the length until you mentioned it. Great work. Love how you use common sense. Dealer would've had you pay $10,000 then your engine would have grenaded.
Nobody in their right mind would drop $10k on a $5k car.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH How about if you bought a $20k car for $5k then put $10k into it?

Almost a million views in 3 days and you deserve all the praise you can get! I’m shocked by what that dealership tried to do. It’s criminal and I’m glad you actually encourage people to do their part of the homework so they don’t get scammed. I hope this reaches the right person at Porsche who can actually do something about what happened there. It’s criminal
Very well said and true!
Love your videos man! This was a good one! You dug deep into the engine yourself this time! Great information! Thanks!
"Samcrac was able to fix it, in a pasture, with cows!" -Obediah Stain complaining to the dealership about his broken Panamera.
Well we are not Samcrac Sir :D
Just because he can, does not mean that others are ripping you off. Sometimes, shit is difficult and decent mechanics make shit look easy.
@@BeardMan01 the joke is, others couldn't do it, but he could in his pasture. Not that they're ripping anyone off, but that they were incapable altogether. In this case, the dealership didn't even properly diagnose the issue.
Just watch out for the paddies
It's not even that the dealership couldn't do it. They're out to make big profits wherever they can, and for dealership service departments that means upselling on repairs and maintenance that aren't needed while avoiding putting in time to fix actual problems. Everybody wants money for nothing.
Hi Sam. I had the pleasure to meet you at Mancuso Auto Body a few years ago. I was impressed by what a good guy you are. Your videos are always great. Just the right blend of drama, information and positivity. Thanks
25:46
Hope you are doing well!
Thanks Sam ! One of my favorite videos so far and I like almost all of them !
42:35 Practically no vibrations even though you're still missing top engine mount. Looks good.
That price for plugs is absolutely beyond belief. The dealership should be thoroughly ashamed at just the level of greed at play here. I really hope the absurd pricing starts to push consumers who own these vehicles to look a bit beyond the dealership and seek out independent specialists instead. Great to see you get a 'win' as well Sam after a lot of issues with lemons!
It’s normal. If you don’t get a coupon or deal, oil changes for Porsches are a consistent $700-800. Plugs are 3 years or 30k miles. The best part, these prices are consistent whether it’s my 911 or my wife’s Macan. I skip the plugs, that’s a cash grab, but the oil changes are labor intensive and there’s little things they do that goes beyond just oil - like cleaning out water drain holes, etc.
Presumably Porsche also put in new coil packs at the same time?
@@markdauncey927 I would be highly surprised though might account for the ludicrous price..? Reading around though, this is just what Porsche charge for plugs. I would imagine coils on top of that would be at least $3000-$4000 more.
My mechanic wanted $200 to do my plugs, I was, nah.. I will do it myself. Simple job on my Turbo S Pano. My guy is a backyard Euro mechanic, you supply parts, he does all the labor. Legit guy. I have transitioned to Instagram mechanics… I did pay for the rotors and pads! $300. I supplied parts off internet. 🤷🏼♂️
Dealerships are NEVER afraid of greed. Greed is what they are about.
Great vid Sam. Love the whole ...complete vid in one take. Don't mind the length at all. Just want to see the complete repair. Thanks for posting it this way. Super interesting.
Thanks 👍
Sam, Great job. Always informative and helpful.
Not covering the intakes working outside.

The screen in the oil pick up might be plugged with chunks of plastic timing guides.
he removed the oil pan, probably checked it
I picked up a 2010 panamera from auction with only 170k (kms) for under 10 grand. Luckily all engine updates were all done , plus I found receipts for all new brakes , new belts , rad , waterpump , etc. Hit the jackpot with this one , only 2 previous owners. Very happy with the car. Great video Sam! Great channel! 👍
You haven’t said why it was only 10k (instead of 25 to 30k?)🤔
@@philtucker1224 Likely because that’s what they’re going for at auction. That model year+mileage is around 13k-14k US at a dealership also, meaning that he lucked out on it being so well maintained, not that the price is anything special.
This is why I got into cars and maintenance. I couldn't handle the powerless feeling of taking my car into any mechanic and have them charge me whatever they want.
as a career or for your own cars?
@@Terpenefiend my own cars for now. I have 3 for myself now. Might start a side gig once I get my car lift though.
@@kyle.smyle. where did you start? i want to learn more myself instead of relying on hourly rate mechanics to make my car whole.

sam, its videos like this that really show your talents, nice job fixing this car and for documenting all the work.
2 grand for a set of plugs??? WTF!
When I saw the coils / engine bay I was like, wait what, they are right there on top of the engine.. I had an old minivan that was harder to replace than that...
With free install 😂
change the plugs at 300/hr. What is the cost of the plug? 13bucks??? >2000 quote. Who is doing the service the ghost of Ferry Porsche himself?
I could imagine my Dad. He'd say - does it come with a gold pen when you pick up the car?
My in-laws Camry was quoted $1k for plugs... there are 4 on the top of the engine at $25 a plug... like wtf?
I like how you never take anything for granted and dig into yourself, when is step mom going to make appearance again?
Great video Sam!!! Loved what you did with the Panamera!!
Brilliant work! Hooked from the outset! Wish I had these skills.
Typical dealership tactics. Sell you thousands of parts you don’t need while your engine is about to explode. My Panamera needed motor mounts and I never bothered to replace them. PITA and not worth it.
Yep!

They honestly don't look that hard to do on a RWD model like this one, but then again I DON'T NEED THEM so it doesn't matter 😂😂😂

@@SamcracI have always hated taking any of my cars to the dealership for ANY reason. I have been an ASE certified Level III mechanic for the last 23 years of my life and I can almost always figure things out for myself, but as far as a recall goes, I'd take it to them. I bought my BMW 135i and my water pump just failed, and I'm going to replace it on my own because I refuse to pay $5000 to have my electric coolant pump and thermostat replaced.
Sam is the last man standing of honest to goodness DIY'ers

Buying a no name Chinese timing kit off of Amazon! Ooof!
There are certain things you don't cheap out on.
Might be one of the dumbest decisions I've seen on youtube. Granted, the kit from FCP is $1277 but when you're talking about a $20k+ car, cheaping out on critical engine components is silly.
@@EdwardM104 Would be surprised how many components are made in China.
The Chinese probably supply Porsche....lol

Yeah because the original parts literally fell apart into the engine, Porsche was the ones who decided to cheap out on critical parts, making it out of inferior plastics
Man you are teaching me a lot about cars at being a mechanic keep doing what you doing play great work
Really enjoying your channel as a young man I worked and lived in south Dade and a good friend would do exactly what your doing back in the 1980’s. I really miss Florida weather and the way the sandy grass felt while working on cars like your doing.
You make it look so simple, and your explanation is so clear. Thanks man. Great video.
It really is simple as long as you have the right tools guidance
Stealership and untrained staff.
No they’re trained. Trained to get as much money from you as possible. I used to deliver to these types of dealerships and you can overhear all kinds of overcharging being done in service. No integrity.
This is the best job I’ve seen you do in a long time Sam 🎉🇬🇧
Good call on the metal found in your oil!! That is 99.9% just the chain running on a bare guide extremely good find here on this vehicle what a good deal you got yourself!!
I love the fact that you did one vid saying the issue and fixing it.
Love your optimism. I saw no room to work on the front of the engine. You were like, "plenty of room to get the timing cover off". More of this Sam. Awesome.
Great vid. Love the longer, more in depth videos.
Followed you all the way through was interested in the entire video it was informative thank you so much
Dealerships never fail to disappoint, nice fix.
There is no telling how many people this dealer has royally screwed over the years on bogus repairs.
How many owners have paid for the repairs, then had the engine go because they didn't fix the real problem. Or maybe the strategy is to get you to pay for the useless repairs, to make up for the labor cost on the recall repair they finally tell you about when you agree to the other stuff. It might have been interesting to see if other dealers missed the recall too.
No telling, other than a forensic accounting audit...
I’m positive that number will match their total customer number! 😂🤣😂🤣
@@earnestbunbury2103I’m sure the dealer is relieved by what you have said…
The dealer is Tampa Porsche, N Florida Ave, they should be ashamed of themselves!
Wow! 😮😮 for the dealer and awesome repair 🔥🔥🔥
great as ever Sam, laughed so hard, when run out of gas, but did a timing job on the green, great like your content. This is so motivating. and the same with bmw dealers. i started to maintain my E61 by myself. With your tipps, carly, diag and the stuff you can do by yourself. great motivation and great content. Appreciate it much Sam.
Absolutely love this content. Please feel free to post super long videos. I don’t mind them at all. I have long daily drives and can easily watch two or three of these long videos.

All that work and aftermarket parts.....
"Amazon Timing Kit".....😂
Aftermarket is one thing and doesn't necessarily mean bad. Amazon timing kit with no brand... Yeah. That's a different story. I would never buy something like this. The chain will probably be quite weak, the guides... They may wear just that much faster or snap to pieces.
180k mile junkyard car whether it has a Porsche badge on it or not.
He's going to flip it. As long as it runs, that's all it needs to do. Every extra cent spent on better parts is one less cent worth of profit.
180K miles thats crazy, the car looks super good for that mileage. And not to mention still running! Must be a good power plant.
good job documenting it all
You doing this in the Florida heat is impressive!
Literally in the market for a Panamera because of their value, I appreciate being able to see all the work you've done on one!

Kudos Sam,,, these videos are the reason that I follow you,,, other than the Copart walk through (with sold price reveals, of course). Proud of ya for the diagnostic & repair. Inspiring....
Glad you like them!
Chains wear out too, getting a new one was the right decision
You were so right to expose those dealer tactics, that’s how they make their mega profits (and probably why a 130k car is only worth 10k now.) in the U.K. we call them “rogue traders”…
In the US, Stealership is used.
H, i restored an identical bike on my channel and had exactly the same snapped headbolt. After much struggling got it out by welding a big nut onto the much shortened shaft and with lots of heat it came out. Good luck. 👍🏻
You don't need to mess with timing replacing those adjuster bolts on the back. Since there's four the back case stays in place and you just replace one at a time. Those little bolts are NOT a lot of torque, only like 8nm and a 180 angle. However, if the bolts are loose or broken then the adjust itself should be replaced at which point timing would be dealt with.
Sam Losened the cam gear bolts then turned the camshafts..
Timing is indeed off😂
@@natesamuels5819 Yeah Sam did that, NOT the Porsche tech that did the recall.
Never, never, ever go to a dealership for any kind of work!
Excellent video, top notch stuff. What a legend Samcrac is.
Great job Samrac really enjoyed and learnt a lot from this video ,
The dealership are a reap offs especially with parts /labour costs .
That top engine mount is an anti torque mount. It is only in tension when you accelerate or deaccelerate with the engine. The other three are just to hold the engine up in place (the transmission mount is the 3rd).
Dealership quoted me 1800 for motor mounts on my wife's durango, so for $80 and 2 hours of work I did them my self.
Driving nice cars comes at a great cost that most of us on the planet could never justify. It would be one thing if the cost was mostly the original purchase price. But in actuality it's the cost in the long run from maintenance. We'd all be bankrupt with a $10k repair. One thing goes wrong and we're broke.
Amazing work! Well done Sam!
My Mazda dealer I’ve been with since 2015 takes great care of my car for a very reasonable price. My GMC dealer I’ve been with since getting my 2500 in 2021 charges >$250/hr, always tries to upsell me on some bs, and has more than once failed to fully address the issue I took the truck into them for. From what I’ve seen my Mazda dealer is a rare exception to the norm. Appreciate them a lot more since I’ve seen what other places are like.
Interesting - I have a similar experience with my Mazda dealer: great service. I wonder if that’s just luck? I don’t have a lot of other recent dealership experience to be able to compare, but many of the comments I see aren’t very positive.
as the consumer, you have to ask questions and have an idea of what/why you are bringing the car in for. Our Mazda (and Subaru) dealer always want $60 ($30 for filter + $30 for labor) to replace the cabin air filter. They always show me an extremely dirty filter packed w/leaves from trees we don't have AND the cars are garage kept. It takes 5 minutes to replace the filter on each car pulling the glove box door out. Filters are $14 from other places. Being somewhat knowledgeable can save you money.
30:22 one issue with the chinese timing kits? The chains are made of chinese playdonium. You might find yourself having to redo this job when the chain stretches beyond the tensioner's ability to take up the slack. It was a problem with sub-standard motorcycle chains too.
yeah, sad to cheap out with that. i wonder what the quality parts cost.
Edit: Sam responded in another comment. He said, "So an OEM kit was around 4x more than the Amazon one. If this was a super special car or something rare I would've gone that route, but the purpose here was to see how much of a budget we could keep. So for everyone that is mad I used a cheap timing chain kit, let me know how many miles your cheap timing kit went before it gernaded? The guides are plastic on every kit. It really comes down to the longevity of the chain and tensioner..."
@@TurboCroissant I didn't see that but his comment makes sense.
He won't be fixing it again. The person he sells it to (for a massive profit partially thanks to the cheap parts) is the one that will need to fix it.
@@wingracer1614 haha if you follow this channel you'd realize he rarely sells them.
The general condition of the engine internals is absolutely amazing, especially given the mileage.
Watched it start to finish and enjoyed every minute... my kids are askign me to do a build, this build has me excited....nice video all..dad is cool..
A trick to break the crankshaft bolt, it's to use a rubber belt tangled stuck around the pulley and the water pump pulley.
You can also use a breaker bar and tap the key,although don't would work doing on grass
Nice to have a manual so you could just put it in top gear
And a new water pump - that's a LOT of torque you're asking for!
That’s the trick to destroying a water pump..my guy that came with the crank tool is a life saver
But then he just sat back and let Sam screw up timing 😂
Great video Sam. I’ve had 2 Panamera turbos (970) and this same issue happens at around 145k miles. Dealer quoted me $23k to fix…. I ended up swapping the motor (and a bunch of other things) for less then half, because I didn’t know what the actual issue was.
Jack up car. Drive replacement car underneath. Hit merge button with BPD (bad part discard) toggle switch thrown. Job's mostly a good'un.
Great job. Leisurely pace, with all the needed explanations about the workflow. Good camera work too, showing what's important. Though with this much mileage, the car should be sold for scrap yard prices, even if it's in perfect running order. it's just too old and fatigued. If it needs new motor mounts, then who knows what else is worn out structurally? Hope the car lasts at least another 50k before giving any more trouble.
Sam my man ! This is one of best vids you have done ! And you have done a shitload ! Full props to you and your buddy ! LATER !!
Great video Sam. Actually the motor mounts on the Porsche are liquid filled.
They can look fine and not move much, but once the liquid leaks out you will get more vibration in the cab.
Have a visual inspection to make sure the liquid didn’t leak out.
Hopefully there's a 2nd part to this video of you driving it
Coming up shortly!
Its crazy how far we are along in vehicle technology...and still having recalls for routine mechanical shit that can sometimes possibly kill people
Really encouraging to see how serviceable is the engine of a Porsche Panamera. Reliability seems pretty decent too, as long as you keep up with maintenance.
Those prices are the reason why the right to repair is so important!
An excellent example of why you shouldn't rely on a dealer's diagnosis. Don't forget, Main Dealers are just shade tree mechanics who have paid money to the manufacturer... Top quality, Sam 🙂👍
Yup, she does run nice and smooth. Well done, guys.
Thanks you are amazing at explaining everything . Thanks .
I still do not understand the dealer did not doing the recall .
Dealers lie sadly.
Did anybody notice that the top engine mount wasn't bolted in and yet the engine hardly rocked? 👀 Sam, it's time to get a head band to hold your camera bro. Working on cars with one hand is crazy. Good job tho💪🏆
Aluminum screws? That is just incredible. Great work. As for the Porsche dealer, they can GTH.
That’s proper skills right there! Well done bro 👊
