I like Tasos video commentary. He became somewhat of a celebrity in the Mercedes aftermarket circles. Having said that, I cannot understand what he is saying exactly.

Is it that he is frustrated with Weistec's attitude to product support? Is it that the product is inferior? Is it that the bad instructions can cause engine damage? Is it that damage did occur and he found the root cause?

What is his message?

Tasos is a super kind and very honest person. there is no room for left and right in his life, only straight forward.
