Jonny found another good deal on a BMW 5 Series that needed a little work. He decided to give it to his wife after the repairs.

Thanks for making me an honest to God KZfaq star! I stopped by to see the Car Wizard as well, and Tyler was just pulling into his shop to film the Subaru DISASTER episode (watch and you will understand). For all who watch from afar, I stopped in at Jonny's completely unannounced, and they couldn't have been nicer about the interruption They were in the process of filming what I assume to be this episode. The shop is nothing short of amazing. A surgical theater of BMW repairs. I work on my own 2007 E86 Z4 3.O si Coupe at home, but if I were in Wichita, I might give that up in favor of these guys, especially in the winter! Keep up the great content, and great camera work as well. And to all who have not subscribed??? WHADDA ARE YOU WAITING FOR????

I tell you, Taylor, I didn't know what to expect, just walking in, but I figured what the heck they won't bite. They were extremely welcoming. The cleanliness was amazing (even though Jonny thought it was a mess). If I get back to Wichita I plan on bringing pizza for their hospitality!

There was a project an hour North of Wichita, so I stopped by the shop to say hi.

Yeah this car is not long out of warranty, not even 100,000 miles, and it's already had a catastrophic drive train failure - pretty much sums up German engineering these days. They are beautiful cars to own or lease from new, but you've got to be insane or a mechanic to be the second or third owner.

Changing oils and fluids in drives, motors and hydraulic units using from 1 quart to 60 gallons. Solvents and cleaning agents from food grade to pretty hostile stuff. I never did a job unless all the equipment was in place, still, I had at least a dozen times safety glasses keep really bad stuff from getting in my eyes. Only get one set of eyes. Safety glasses are cheap and easy. Sorry to sound so bitchy but I do love the content and would hate to see something avoidable happen.
