- Will our cheap Audi S8 start with just a new battery?? Today we investigate this mysterious "mechanical damage" and find some answers! This rare 2001 V8 Audi S8 was buy far the cheapest in the USA when we bought it at salvage auction as a non running vehicle for the price of parts. It was cheaper than our 2001 Mercedes S600 V12 which we paid $850 for. Will this simple $130 battery replacement solve our problems??

You know you gonna get it.
JR Garage Put some nice wheels on it 😎
Bet
Lets goo
YES!! This car really needs a straight-pipe exhaust!
There is ECON button pressed during AC test, you have to de-activate that button if you want the AC work properly. Cheers🙂🙂
Bledar Hasku Like Mercedes did back in the 90s
It’ll stay lit up red and go right back to it if there’s a fault in the system to not ruin anything. Low refrigerant, etc.
@AfroDude293 my 2007 golf GTI just has an AC button
What is that button I thought the germans got it mixed up and meant ac
@@neilmurphy845 ECON short for ECONOMIC meaning less fuel spent 😉
Anything with 4 wheels on it
JR Garage: Straight pipe it
Neqoula Haddad Hahahaha true 😂

Straight piping a straight pipe

A car with a V6, V8, or V10.... JR’s answer straight pipe it
V12 too
This is amazing, I just bought a 2002 S8 project myself (for twice as much, still a great deal, the lower bumper grilles are worth a few hundred bucks alone) and now there's this on the channel! The pearl white is a rare color in Europe, too and it generally seems to be in good condition. The engines are usually not a problem btw, it's the 5-speed tiptronic that blows up sooner or later, and you won't know what condition that is in until youve read the codes or gone on a longer drive. Obviously that's where the risk it, it would total the car unless you want to invest the 3 grand or so for a rebuilt one, which might be worth it with this one. Also pls no straight pipes...
I have a question, if I change my battery do I have to go to the dealer to reset anything?
Don’t straight pipe it. It will lose most of the bottom end torque
doesnt it depend on how thicc in diameter the pipes are?
Fix the mechanical and leave the exhaust alone. I know it's a V8, but you don't have to straight pipe EVERYTHING.... Nice find! I'd buy it...
That had to be the fork lift that damaged the rad...it would have been bone dry if old damage. Those co part guys just don't give a f"&% !
Christopher Leeson @JR Garage
Well that make sense
so then why was car totaled?
Nah. I think the owner hit some kerb or some sort of divider on the road. That messed up the bumper and broke maybe a couple of radiator pipes.
Yeah it has to be, the hole is the perfect size of the fork
I don’t know if it’s only me but I find these cheap luxury car videos more satisfying than the expensive super car ones. Good job guys.
I have an audi s6 avant 4.2! And i replaced timing belt and cam chain tensioner around 140,000 miles might want to look in to it. O yeah it needs straight pipes
That's usually the first thing you do when you buy a car.... change that thing because you never know if the previous owner did it or not .... My Audi A4 2.8 V6 I thought it went at 70,000 miles and got the timing belt change.... And then I changed it again when it had a hundred and seventy thousand miles...
Mbn to have an Audi s car 😔
No, this thing does not need straight pipes... It's a luxury car, not a Honda Civic
Gordon Ramsey: season your steak.
Goonzsquad: Daaaaaaaaang Soooooooon
Jr Garage: lets straight pipe everything.
Also JR garage: Lets straight pipe a tesla!
LZ says hold my beer, grab Collete by the... and send it daily!
Another home run guys. It needs a louder exhaust, but don't straight pipe it. Love this shape Audi.
ok just a little louder then:)
Now I still using S8 already upgrade turbo to 2.0psi damn fast at highway and I love it
Do not straight pipe that, totally wrong for that car.
No it’s not that car sounds amazing
"DUDE , THIS THING IS FAST" BECAUSE IT IS AN AUDI!
Guys don't straight pipe it please 😊 it sounds so smooth
That gen 4.2 doesn’t have a timing chain. It’s a timing belt and as long as you change it it will run forever
I have a brand new $1500 dual exhaust that I never installed. Still in box. Yours for $500 shipped
oscar fonseca What Kind?
Interested in Santa Barbara. ndcarguy
I’ve watched your videos a while back and loved them but forgot to subscribe. and now i’ve been looking for your channel for over a week and now that i’m here, i subscribed and watched all of your videos in like a day
Im so hyped you guys made this video. I own a 2001 Audi A8L. It's my baby. ❤️
I love the positivity and energy! Hello from the UK and yes that car looks so retro!!
its so awesome that the motor was not damaged due to the coolant loss. Its going to be fun car to rip around.
I just lost my beautiful 1999 S8 to a National recall on the Takata airbag. Audi bought the car back from me. I hope that the rad is your only issue, I spent a small fortune keeping mine on the road. If that does turn out to be your only issue, you guys are going to have a lot of fun in that car. It’s a wonderful machine to drive when everything is working well. Good luck to you both! 🇦🇺👍
You guys should start a muffler delete shop xD
ikr hahaha
Between 30 and 36 seconds you show two cars that appeared on BAT the car on the right that says original owner was my vehicle. and I miss it to this day one of the best cars I've ever owned and I've owned dozens. I'll be following this new purchase guys best of luck.
1 video about an Audi starting
Ikr
my buddy had a s4 with the same 4.2L v8 it sounds amazing straight piped do it for sure
Fix it, badge it and sell it to me.
I have an 03 s8 with 95K Silver metallic with red interior if interested
Tyler Vizenor are you in CO? I think I’ve seen yours
Tyler Vizenor Lets talk. I drive a 16 A8, and I’m seriously considering swapping for a nice one of these.
Such a great looking Viper! “Just follow the coolant trail.” Good one Christian! Good to see the pick up back btw. So awesome the Audi started. Another winner! 👍
it's a legende, let it stock pls
The AC will function with use. It's because it's been standing for a long time without use. So soon it will blow cold also in the other went. You also need to have filled the radiator. So it will soon be working as it should just turn the vent off until it is in OK.
Use toothpaste to polish the faded front lights, they will be like new. You may even be able to weld the radiator.
The car is all aluminum, built on Audi Space Frame. So it will not rust. Such great cars. I have driven them for 20 years. They are extremely solid low maintenance cars. Even the gearbox is amazing. My first car drove 385.000 kilometers (240.000 miles) before I sold it off, still on the road. Fantastic quick and agile cars!!! Probably the best and most solid cars ever built, in my opinion, since it hasn't got all the electronic of the newer cars.
I really wish to get one again.
Radiator
Tint windows
Bumper paint
Compound & polish, clean engine bay
20" Audi peeler rims with nice tires
Open up that exhaust
Condition leather
Give away.... to me lol!!
Congrats GREAT! Buy.
AC Cooling on the right only means low R134a, it has 2 evaporators and runs out of liquid on the right leaving none for the left. Also the TransGo valve mod will keep the trans from blowing itself up. Great cars, I have a 2001 and 2003.
I love Cool Audi's. This one's a home run for sure!👍
No Straight-Pipe, just a Nice Sounding eXhaust...not annoying.
No more straight piping!!!
amen, especially on a large sedan like this, it is just ridiculous and way to fish for likes
B-pillars and headlights can be polished back to new! Great find, congrats!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I had my first Audi a8 d2 4.2l few years ago and i loved it, now i want it back because of you guys bought S8.
I can’t even count how many times they say $725
725 times
“Today were going to be working on our new $725 Lamborghini”
Not for nothing but this is my favorite channel you guys are doing things that alot of us car guys wish we could be doing ourselves, and is freaking awesome to see it from you guys. keep it up JRGarage💥💥
You gotta leave some cars with the stock exhaust in my opinion, including this one.
You’re absolutely right, tint would would be perfect on that car. Headlight restoration maybe as well? DIY challenge? See what a difference it could be?
He reminds me of Novak Djokovic!!
Congrats on the buy! Here in Germany all cheap s8 are messed up by young drivers that did not care about servicing the car and just wanted to flex. Often this results in an engine failure.
The car is beautiful!
Get the intake and exhaust ported and polished, plus a bit of tuning to fuel and timing, and it won't just be loud ;)
That Headlights need some goodd polishh🔥
New radiator, oil change some headlight wet sanding+buffing, boom brand new S8😎. Love your videos !!!!
"do you know whats free? a $3 can of scrubbing bubbles" hahahah
Mr Skeedle whoops, close to free:)
the trunk is not confusing and is actually pretty easy and well made to open. you unlock it with the key, take the key out and just press on the lock. when you unlock the car with the remote u just press the lock button to open
Please don’t straight pipe it so rare and in such good shape it was so well kept
Wheels, tint windows, radiator....done 👍🏼
This car would sound amazing with a muffler delete!!! Great video!
As a Scot it's cool to hear you guys say "wee bit" haha. Looking foward to the project guys.
Buy a 7 series for your luxury car collection.
I've had three of these years ago.. All manual 6-speeders :) It was a blast!
I'm intrested in buying the BMW M3 I'm in California
My 97 E420 has factory xenons too😋 My 2 cents: tint,cat and resonator delete and a magnaflow muffler,polish or replace the headlights and that's about it for starters😎
do NOT straight pipe it. It sounds smooth
That is a car I could without straight pipes, just clean it up and fix the radiator, hopefully you don’t find anything else wrong! Thanks for showing the Viper, actually thanks for sharing the video! Take care and stay safe and healthy!
Thanks for not wasting my time I only had to watch 10 seconds
Man the late 90s early 2000s Audi’s have TIMELESS interiors, still to date my favorite looking interior
What's this obsession with straight piping?! 🤔 Just leave it as it is please, it's fine. Being loud wouldn't suit it as it's an understated luxury sports car
You have a W220 V12, you have a Audi S8, now you need BMW e38 750i and it will be cool
Needs a full detail and sort they headlights out they need some loving,
Hey JR the car also has a solar roof which was really rare at the time. It keeps the car cool on hot days.
its so big , so old and so legendary 🤩
Try to get new lights on the car and put the badges back on the car since it was de-badged
Just fix the problems that the car has and leave it like it is it’s too nice for you guys to do that.
If the other AC vent still doesn't work it's a common problem on Hondas ar least that the blend door actuator gets stuck. What we did to fix it was put the AC on full cold then full hot then full cold again quickly and it worked for us.
That car would be perfect for me (when it’s done)!!!
That fantastic Audi deserves to original, NO STRAIGHT PIPE !!! I hade an a8 "00 many years ago, and I love this model.
Put some air suspension on it
This car with 20mm spacers all around will look badass!!!
An S8 isn’t rare, at least, not here in the Netherlands🇳🇱!!
Had an A8 and loved it! The rear motorized sun shade kept on breaking down.
Too bad its not an RS...
That does simply not exist
Lol hope this is a joke
Loving this Audi, honestly I wouldn't straight pipe it. It takes away it's style, this Audi is smooth, fast, and luxurious. Doesnt need to be loud, the power is already thier! Are you guys going to replace the timing chain?
Hey how much for the s8
selling my 2002 S8 for $3500 118000mi
You can buy those car for like $5,000.... They aren't that rare... The rare Audi A8 is the w12 or the s8 with a V10 Lamborghini motor...
@@DaveDelli 3500 is too much how about 1500 2000 thats my range and i am in ny
@@ozdiaz1048 I bet if you look at the s8 that year now they all gona have a an additional $2,000 on top of what they trying to sell it because of this video
Only 2 chains it has is 2 chains that drive camshaft adjusters,it has timing belt!
Are you ever gonna bring a garage tour or is it just all talk
Can't wait to see more vids of this beauty.
My dad had a few of these S8's, but I remember a black on black one that he had. And omg does that thing sound good with a exhaust.
Just make it louder man! No need for likes! I WANNA HEAR DAT AUDI ROAR!
Leader Games06 4.2 V8s sounds sooooo good!
yes it has a belt and no issues with this one!
Is that really a car you want to straight pipe? I feel like it should stay as quiet luxury cruiser.
S8. The GrandDaddy of them all. Great find, boys. Get this back to the condition it deserves! Looking forward to your updates. Yes badges (blacked out), yes blackout the chrome window trim, yes upgraded exhaust - but no straight pipes my opinion. Not the right fit. The beauty of this car was the understated elegance.
6:01 what u came for
Thank me later
Thx m8
thx bro
The S8 needs new rims and an exhaust, but other than that it’s clean af.
You should definitely wrap it. Don't straight pipe it. It'll be loud and dumb
Did a cat delete on my a8 d2. Worth it. Check out the suspension. And the hydraulic cam tensioner. They are prone for failure.
Shoutout to the UK 9:32 🇬🇧
Jeffrey saying 2020 is the year of free cars is literally the only good thing about 2020 so far (I’m not even in the US so idk why I’m excited but whatever😂)
Bring back old jr garage :(
wym?
Paint the black parts at the bottom of the bumpers and the side skirts same colour as the car 🔥🔥🔥
Stop straight piping every luxury sedan....some folks like a silent ride
deansusandylan i dont 😬
6:07 Looks like another Audi. S4 Coupe convertible maybe?
*nobody*
*JR Garage* : Let's straight pipe this car🤔🤔🤔
the 4.2L engines were preaty solid drivers. I live in canada and found a radiator for my a8 for less then 200$ put some ngk plugs in the engine tho platinums will be much better. check the wreckers you may find something good.
