THE TRUTH ABOUT MY WRECKED MERCEDES C63

Hey Mat, Mercedes-Benz specialist here - the pre-facelift (2008-2011) W204 C63's came with the torque converter, and the facelift (2012-2014) models were equipped with the wet clutch. I highly recommend just replacing the wet clutch with a new one. Technically speaking, you could make the pre-facelift transmission work with the facelift model, but it would require for you to transfer over the valve body from your old transmission over to the new one. But even then, that valve body would still have to get coded, and in the long run, you will no longer have features like Launch Control.

I can just imagine tony at home a couple of years ago with all that pent-up banter inside him doing sudoku. Now he’s an Internet sensation and one of the lads.

Personally, I think Matt the Cameraman is the secret gem. He is always positive, very quick witted and keeps Matt and Tony laughing. I also suspect he is great at asking "so what are you doing" or "what's that for" to get Matt and Tony to explain stuff to him, and therefore to us, in a very natural and funny way. Great job Matt the Cameraman. Loved it when he said "Not with that attitude you won't" - laughed out loud!

That had me in stitches. Mat Armstrong failing to fix cars might be my new favourite format.

‘I hope everyone’s annoyed” getting there 😂

"I'm an encyclopedia of nuts". "I'm not gonna argue with that" Nearly choked on my food🤣🤣😭😭😭

I couldn't imagine these videos without Tony .. Legend

bro just this video is so humble just a dad and his son and some friends laughing and joking while working on a cool car

Matt’s father bringing up “The glass hammer” again about Toby was jokes 😭😭

Loving this channel more than the main one now. The dynamic between your old man and the dude on the camera is hilarious.

" GOOD CALL " !!! You can tell Mat's Daddy is proud of Mat ! What a father he is !🙌❤

The reason why i love this type of videos because how enlighten and happy everyone is while fixing the gearbox. I think everyone else maybe share the same opinion as mine too. Keep doing it.

The last bit Tony's face was speaking emotions

Awe Mat....love your work from South Africa🇿🇦

Excellent answers Toby 🔥

I love all your videos and what you do, but this has been one of my favorites so far. It’s humbling to see the raw failure that comes along with learning to do these things. As I’m sure it’s frustrating it’s great to see laughter and fun going on with your struggles. Keep up the great work team Armstrong.

The issue is the facelifted C63 got the dual clutch gearbox and you’ve seen to have put in the pre facelift torque converter gearbox, which are not interchangeable unfortunately. Surprised the wheels even span!

Tony is an absolute legend, and theres not many channels on YouTube that are pure as yours are Mat

Love the energy you guys have working together.

Mat please remember Freddy urgently to change the brake fluid to the green one. He filled the Royce with the wrong one. This will cause expensive damage on the seals of the breaksystem.
