clearly to Ilan size matters second
[6]
second angle is rolling autofocus on
[9]
this one did you know that Tesla is the
[15]
only car in the world that has a bio
[17]
defense mode so basically right now at a
[20]
time when we have a pandemic say you're
[21]
driving down the street and the virus
[23]
was everywhere maybe you're driving
[25]
through a place where there's people
[26]
alongside of you that all have a corona
[28]
virus they're all breathing or they're
[30]
coughing and you're driving your car
[32]
very slow Tesla has a filter built into
[35]
it that is able to protect the virus
[38]
from coming inside of the car and to
[40]
keep everything safe it was used during
[43]
the forest fires in California where
[45]
there's fire and smoke everywhere
[46]
there's multiple examples of people
[49]
turning it on in their car and then
[50]
measuring the air quality and their car
[52]
dropped from went from like really bad
[54]
air quality all the way down to pure air
[57]
pretty pure air so today we're going to
[60]
explore how that's even possible we're
[62]
going to get my Tesla Model X and we're
[64]
going to take apart part of it hopefully
[66]
not break it
[67]
wait you're going to attempt to take
[68]
apart our Model X yes is that a bad idea
[72]
this is an air filter right here that's
[74]
like a air filter on a standard car I
[77]
think this one is too a Nissan so we can
[79]
keep looking forward
[84]
I reached out to Tesla your bubble wrap
[87]
a couple weeks ago and I said I would
[91]
like a replacement biodefense filter for
[95]
my Tesla Model X they charged me 250
[98]
dollars and they mailed me this
[101]
biodefense filter that I can put in my
[104]
car it's a little bigger than the Nissan
[106]
one oh my dog oh that's massive they're
[112]
not huge not expected to travel like
[116]
this is a don't touch it too much we
[120]
want to keep it clean and pure still to
[122]
put in a perspective of how big the bio
[123]
defense filter is for test looks this is
[127]
a World War 2 training funnel it's an
[130]
actual bomb they fill it up with don't
[133]
tell them we're gonna do a video on that
[134]
it really is from World War two a
[137]
training bomb that they did not explode
[139]
or use in a training exercise and then
[142]
it got wrapped in guchi it's the only
[143]
one in the world that's like this you
[145]
could get into an Tesla you know
[147]
hypothetically speaking if a big ol bomb
[150]
went off and turn it on put your family
[152]
in there you could drive through the
[154]
fallout from the nuclear fallout
[155]
potentially we haven't really been able
[157]
to test that I don't want to get sued if
[159]
you guys do it during a nuclear fallout
[161]
and all of a sudden you're like well
[163]
what's inside said that we could go and
[165]
get into our car Tesla it should work it
[168]
should work as a theory if you look
[170]
closely it's kind of hard to see inside
[173]
there's the hole on the other side of
[175]
the filter they have like some sort of
[177]
charcoal that's on there this right here
[179]
is pretty cool like these paths yeah I
[181]
don't know I don't that's not part of
[183]
the filtration maybe that's just to keep
[184]
the cabin noise quiet as it sits in the
[186]
car Elon did a test a few years ago
[188]
where they bubble they put a giant
[190]
bubble around the Model X and then they
[192]
tested the air outside the car and
[194]
inside of the car and inside of the car
[196]
it definitely
[197]
downs like clean levels but what was
[199]
interesting is that it made the outside
[200]
of the car inside of the bubble also
[202]
cleaner not like hundred percent clean
[204]
but cleaner there's little cracks inside
[206]
of cars you know where air can get in
[208]
and out and so they just figured let's
[209]
just blast in as much air as we can and
[211]
pressurize the car and then if any air
[214]
is going to be leaking it's going to be
[215]
leaking out of the car so it actually
[216]
cleaned the air inside of the bubble
[218]
that's because of the leaks and the
[219]
cracks and the doors or wherever it is
[221]
you want is very smart
[222]
Ilana so smart the model three and the
[225]
model I won't want long they don't have
[228]
this mode in it really their filter is
[230]
too small it's tiny it's like this big
[232]
maybe a little bit bigger I'm very
[235]
scared because you're gonna be taking
[236]
apart our part yeah me too saying right
[240]
now we're inside of our Tesla Model X
[242]
you can tell by the giant windshield
[244]
that's in the front here the model Y
[246]
Model S and the model three does not
[248]
have that windshield if you look right
[250]
there there's the bio defense button
[253]
Lincoln why don't you give it a push and
[255]
let's see what happens okay
[258]
listen to that Wow
[261]
so it turns on the air and it starts
[265]
blasting it at full it's really cool
[267]
there - it is cold because we have the
[269]
a/c on I think this we have it set to 70
[271]
degrees yeah look it's on time you can't
[274]
change it so we've had this car for
[276]
almost three years now and we have how
[279]
many miles on air link can push the tee
[280]
at the top fifty thousand seven hundred
[282]
three seven miles yeah almost 51,000
[285]
miles we have never changed the filter
[287]
out the bio defense filter so if we sat
[290]
in here for maybe 10 15 minutes the air
[292]
would be pretty darn pure inside of this
[295]
car versus what's going on outside
[298]
pretty awesome
[303]
okay front trunk let's get this nice on
[306]
filter out of here we've got a few other
[309]
things that we need to take out so the
[312]
filter is actually underneath this part
[315]
so we need to take out parts all of this
[317]
and then unscrew and pull out this this
[320]
is not something that I'm comfortable
[321]
with taking apart my car I am not good
[325]
at taking things apart and putting them
[326]
back together I think it can be done so
[328]
we're gonna do this okay Oh take
[331]
something up on the ground in the same
[334]
way that I'm taking it off - that was
[340]
easy part number three part number four
[346]
now we need to take apart this plastic
[351]
or rubber seal that goes on here pretty
[356]
easy to do there's this stuff on the
[358]
ground I'm trying to put on the ground
[359]
the exact same way that I took it out
[360]
and you can see these plastic coverings
[362]
cover some of this stuff right here
[365]
which apparently we don't want to cut
[367]
this guy I will follow that right here
[370]
is the inside front and you want to take
[372]
off the two lights that are on there
[374]
before you take out this inner part
[380]
I broke off a little piece
[383]
dang it alright so I broke off a little
[385]
bit of this one if you look on this one
[387]
you can see it's just a little has a
[392]
little safety thing on it all you're
[393]
supposed to do is push down on that
[395]
little part right there and instead I
[397]
pulled off that big old thing and so
[399]
this thing just comes off not a big deal
[401]
this is just the light it'll still work
[404]
alright here comes this we are looking
[408]
at the front trunk and there are a bunch
[410]
of screws on here bolts there's like a
[412]
bunch of bolts that I need to unscrew
[414]
these one there's like maybe ten or
[416]
twelve of them once I do that I should
[418]
be able to take this out this is the
[420]
tool that's gonna help me get these
[421]
screws out of here hopefully now we take
[424]
these off and again I you have lots of
[433]
tools I'm working here oh you took out
[436]
the soft thing that's progress
[440]
okay I think we got all of them off need
[443]
to go inside those are for the trouble
[447]
lights all right
[453]
oh my dear that is nasty
[455]
Wow that's dirty really dirty
[458]
we found it though you did it you took a
[460]
part of our test I took it apart
[462]
look at all of that it is so dirty
[467]
inside of there so does it just come out
[470]
okay so this is the filter right here it
[473]
just sits down in there Wow
[475]
that came off so easy and it just comes
[476]
out all right so take a look at the
[478]
difference here this is obviously the
[480]
clean one the new one this is the one
[482]
after fifty thousand seven hundred and
[484]
sixty nine miles or whatever the number
[486]
was yeah these things are good to clear
[488]
out if you actually want the bio defense
[490]
mode to work properly I would imagine
[492]
you want to change your filters every
[493]
once in a while look at the difference
[495]
here this is like completely grey and
[497]
that's just white beautiful pure white
[500]
it's kind of cool how you just take this
[502]
and you just set it down in there wow
[506]
that looks so much better the inside of
[508]
our car is so dusty like the whole thing
[510]
there we go I fixed something kind of
[513]
this is the only opening on this side
[515]
that goes into the cabin air and then
[518]
right here is where it goes in it's
[520]
where there's going to screw on that
[521]
yeah get it in there so it's nice and
[524]
snug and tight and then down here on the
[527]
bottom part you can see there's a groove
[528]
that's made just for this filter just
[531]
set right in there once you have it in
[534]
there's no screws that are needed you
[535]
just basically just have to put things
[536]
back in and I put something back
[538]
together that is the question
[554]
alright step 1 get this big plastic
[557]
thing in that's a biggest step I'm gonna
[559]
put away my tools that I've used once in
[561]
five years this goes right there alright
[565]
big black spaghetti this is one of my
[566]
greatest economist what happens when
[568]
you're stuck at home and you don't want
[570]
to drive two hours to Las Vegas you just
[573]
snap right in I might have nothing right
[581]
okay it's the test you ready I'm ready
[589]
good so far it's working good I think
[592]
you did it
[593]
I think I did it are you proud of me
[595]
yeah go ahead Zack say right now he was
[598]
here
[600]
I don't know Dan I am so impressed by
[603]
your handiwork you staying at home
[605]
during the quarantine is the best thing
[607]
to ever happen to you because now you
[608]
know how to fix things by yourself and
[610]
not rely on others I hope you guys
[612]
learned something today I learned that I
[613]
can fix something but I also learned
[615]
that the biodefense mode is pretty cool
[616]
and you could probably use it more than
[618]
i used it i usually like three times
[620]
over the last 50,000 miles the filter is
[622]
there it can be replaced use it if the
[625]
air quality is poor outside there's an
[627]
inversion in the winter time if there's
[629]
smoke outside tons of pollen you get
[631]
allergies turn on the bio defense mode
[633]
and clean out your car and at least
[635]
while you're driving especially on some
[636]
of the long drive so you have you'll
[638]
have some cleaner air inside of your car
[640]
that should help you breathe better so
[642]
thank you Tesla for that randomness and
[644]
thanks for watching see ya see you
[648]
around
[650]
[Applause]
[656]
grown up great parole afraid so sort of
[662]
coronavirus parade this what happens
[664]
during the curl of a Lincoln I think the
[669]
world is a little upside-down on that
[671]
map what is going on here now it looks
[674]
cool though
[676]
cool upside down the world does look
[678]
cool upside down I mean the world kind
[680]
of is upside down right now considering
[682]
all the quarantines and stuff why is it
[684]
so many Rises so many rocks and chilly
[686]
midnight
[688]
that's a good question put that out
[689]
there to the Internet why are there so
[691]
many rocks in Chile or Chile we need to
[695]
know Lincoln needs to know the answer to
[697]
this why
[701]
dang it
