Audi S4 B7 transmission fluid change
This is my record of me changing the transmission fluid on my 2005 S4 B7 Audi. Some takeaway points:
1. Don't do this if you don't need to
2. Don't try this without good access under the car
3. Make sure before starting that you can run the engine without having to move the car

มุมมอง 177K5 ปีที่แล้ว
How to remove and repair a BMW X5 electric parking brake. One day when I put the handbrake on, there was a nasty grinding noise, and the handbrake would not release. I pulled the emergency release cable in the boot, then took it to a garage to get a quote for repair. They wanted £750 for the part, plus 3 hours labour, so I decided to have a go myself. It turned out that the force sensor had fai...

    Good morning, thank you very much for the video, mine is a 2007 Rexton, a gear inside the electronic brake broke and I replaced the part, it works two or 3 times and remains braked, it seems that the motor does not return from the electronic brake, what could it be?

    I love my 06 S4 cabriolet but it is a frustrating car to own. The driving experience is sublime, but the engineering is schizophrenic. Brilliance is cheek by jowl with silly and annoying overly complicated answers to unasked questions. Like no way to check nor add transmission fluid without a lift; or having to take the motor out of the car to replace the timing chains ala Ferrari, a $4-5,000 job . This is why I see so many of these for sale with 85k miles or so and why they can be bought cheaply if you are aware of the huge priced service coming up @ 100,000 miles. Btw, if you have the chain break, it is an interference type motor, so you’ll be buying another one if it happens. Five grand or more plus the r&r charge. Whoops!

    I recently encountered an issue with my 2013 BMW 530D Gran Turismo's handbrake, which began exhibiting a grinding noise approximately three weeks ago while engaging the parking brake. This problem aligned with the symptoms described in your informative video, leading me to hypothesize a malfunction in the load sensor within the actuator. Initially, the handbrake was functional albeit accompanied by the grinding sound, but it eventually ceased to operate. Upon conducting a comprehensive service check, I utilized the BMW Link application to execute a service reset. Subsequently, I engaged the handbrake in service mode. However, upon reverting from service mode, multiple error indications surfaced on the dashboard, reminiscent of a 'Christmas tree' light display. One critical error message suggested a failure in the ribbon or cable, although I regret not capturing a photographic record of these error messages. Following the guidance provided in your video, I dismantled the actuator. Inspection of the cable connected to the left hub revealed a missing termination lug, and I discovered the detached lug within the hub itself. This led me to conclude that the cable's failure was likely precipitated by the activation of service mode, as the issue became evident post-activation. In pursuit of a resolution, I had the cable professionally repaired at a local hydraulic shop (refer to the attached photographs for details). Remarkably, after reinstalling the repaired cable, the handbrake issue was completely resolved. I extend my gratitude for the clear instructions and invaluable assistance provided by your video.

    Great video thank you. Mine got stuck parking on a steep hill, after a battle to pull the emergency release with the tool and a ratchet strap i got home. Managed to take back off unit and get access without even jacking up the X5 or taking wheels off - just unscrewed end caps and twisted over the unit. Then unscrewed cover then motor and gearbox and freed up jammed mechanism. Used 12v battery to move motor and get all available thread to click back together the two halves from being released. I could not get car to reset from failure mode/yellow light with any in car method. Had to use my Launch 126 diagnostic unit and run through brake reset procedure to get it going and clear yellow light.

  • @danielstettner5882
    @danielstettner5882 ปีที่แล้ว

    My friend! You can remove the entire front "lock carrier" assembly of the B6/B7 platform by first removing the front bumper (easy) then removing, on both sides, two bolts above the headlight, and one bolt from the side underneath the headlight that attach the fender to the core support/lock carrier. Then remove the metal bumper (1 triple-square faster from underneath) and the impact absorbers (4 fasteners). The entire core support/headlight/radiator/condenser/power steering cooler assembly slides forward. You can.support it with an engine hoist or some clever ceiling rigging, and it will slide forward enough to give you room to do some things, potentially the oil cooler as well, without even disconnecting and draining coolant/coolant hoses. If you are completely removing the lock carrier assembly, a tip for draining coolant is to simply remove the plug that is on the bottom of the water pump/regulator housing, remove the coolant reservoir cap, and doing the above^ steps while it drains.

      Its definitely not the way to do it, bolts are from the back because you worked the wrong way around 😂 audi made it so simpel with 8 bolts, 2 fanducts, fast connection on the automatic transmission cooler and coolant , 2 hoses for power steering and 2 for a/c and you can take the whole front incl headlights off.

    A little tip for everyone, to get the other side off just take the terminals off the motor ( red and black wires) and get a 12 volt battery and put the - black to the red terminal and the red + to the black and it will reverse the motor and undo it it saves taking the wheel off
