It's not possible to block YouTube ads with pihole as they're served from the same address as the videos. Pihole does not inspect any content itself. That's why on a laptop/desktop you need ublock origin for the browser.

Disappointing to see most of the comments here discussing either how to remove limiters or specs of cars. We should be looking to reduce polluting vehicles like these and also the fetishisation of cars in general.
