Visible crew/equipment: When Letty and Dom are racing through London, you can see crowd control fences along quite a few of the sidewalks, especially when they are at Picadilly Circus. (01:07:40)
Fast & Furious 6 (2013)
1 visible crew/equipment mistake - chronological order
Directed by: Justin Lin
Starring: Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez
Factual error: In the scene where Shaw is talking to a goon while fixing his car he states the simplest things cause the most problems while holding a spark plug. We know this can't be right as Brian concludes the car is a turbo diesel like a Le Mans car, which would actually use a glow plug and not a spark plug. (00:19:50)
Roman Pearce: Better hide your baby oil.
Luke Hobbs: Better hide that big-ass forehead.
Trivia: The tube train in this film is the same one as in V for Vendetta. Both scenes were filmed at Aldwych, where a fully operational train is kept for training and filming.
Question: Did Laz Alonso reprise his role as Fenix for the flashback sequences, or was it all archive footage?
Suggested correction: That's exactly the problem that Shaw is referring to, a member of his team installed the incorrect plug which caused a problem, i.e. a Spark Plug and not a Glow Plug (a simple thing, causing the problem), along with the 'good' being simple minded and causing the rest of Shaw's team a problem.
The glow plug isn't what causes combustion in a diesel like how a sparkplug does for gas. The wiring harness for a spark plug vs a glow plug is completely different and they aren't interchangeable. You can't just accidentally put a spark plug in a diesel, it doesn't work like that.
