I can only imagine what it would cost a normal person to have a credible shop fix all these issues. You could buy a new AMG for less. I'm very impressed with your capabilities and drive to get things done the right way Alex.

Alex, I’m an MB certified tech, what’s causing the corrosion on the ESP modules is a rust spot behind the dashboard on the passenger side, causing water to drip in there. It’s very common on G Wagons.

I'm glad there is still a respectable automotive youtuber who actually works on cars! Thanks for being a real one, Alex!

As a retired tech, I really appreciate your diagnostic process. Any younger techs watching should use your process as a template on how to approach malfunctions.

If you sit back and think about it, Alex kinda has the greatest job on the planet. He’s an absolute gear head that loves cars, and enjoys digging into the inner mechanics of them. Also, he’s not only making money doing things he loves to do, but he gets to grow his dream car collection while letting us watch him mod them to his liking. That’s pretty god damn epic! He also gets to occasionally get outta the shop, and give us a glimpse of some of the kick ass experiences he gets to have. <br><br>Keep up the great work, Alex! Definitely one of my top 5 channels on this platform.

Steering Shock shaft end seems to have been refitted under rather than over the mount (circa <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RINg4eGuI0&t=896">14:56</a>)

Seeing the insides of the dirty filters is so satisfying. We love that you go the extra mile there!

I'm not even into cars but I love watching this guy's videos. 😂

I watch a LOT of car build/maintenance content, and I mean a LOT, but LegitStreetCars has become my favorite of all time. Please never stop or change.

The shock was installed originally on top of the support and the new one was installed on the bottom
