I BOUGHT A CHEAP Copart Audi A6 With A CLEAN TITLE *Supercharged*

- My buddy Eli bought this 2011 Audi A6 from Copart with a CLEAN TITLE. It was listed as no key so he took the bait, bought the car, and had a key made. Unfortunately once the key was made he found out the engine was seized and it suddenly needed a $3,000 engine to finish the project. Eli decided to sell the car to me and move on to another project. I can't wait to swap it and get this car back on the road!

Weld an old spoon handle onto that oil changing station, and no more smashed finger
Im going to miss watching you struggle in the home garages. This was like the as much as you can do at home channel. Looking forward to all the new projects but keep it real for us dirt bags every now and again.
i love how you justified the cameras in the fridge with: "so that seems dumb but you can do it from your phone anywhere in the world" hahahaha
Smart, but also dumb 😀
@@WatchJRGo such is life anymore lol
Now whenever he's on vacation abroad, he can use his phone to see what he has in the fridge. Pretty useful.
Those fridges were so glitchy, hope they came with a good warranty.
You know, having a shop with a public fridge is a recipe for disaster when it comes to lunches and left overs. You got those, what I like to call "fridge floaters/fridge raiders", etc that go inside the fridges and pillage whatever they can, (btw LOVE LOVE doctor pepper,) this way he can see if his left overs are still available!
A tire machine and alignment rack will pay for that building on its own
If you have the skills to do tires and alignments.. emphasis on if..jr does not
That's why you hire someone to do the alignments. Yeah it costs money, but hey, it still would help cover the costs on the shop as a whole.
An alignment rack alone is like 20k a brand new tire machine is like 10k
@@n2vxc doing an alignment is not hard... the machine practically tells you what do to. I figured it out myself when i was a 16 year old apprentice
@Joe Black
Not the right kind of attitude for business.
Awesome car John Ross , killing the content keeps getting better each upload !! Great shop too. I see you at 1 million subs before end of 2021!
Can't wait to see the future of the new shop!
LEDs in the fogs probably causing the codes
They did on my e60 ! Is there a way to avoid that
@@chadriddle3517 should be able to get an in line canbus that plugs into the headlight and wire harness from the led manufacturer or online somewhere. You can also get a fault equalizer that you wire into the wires themselves that will correct the voltage being detected by the computer and should clear the codes. I would suggest the canbus as its way easier to deal with.
@@xzx_sparky_xzx hey thanks for the info , I will try that .
@@chadriddle3517 you are very welcome
You are right, they probably installed the cheapest one in the market, I bought a set of Philips LED fog lights that already came with the CANBUS integrated.
No one is more happier for you getting your own shop than your neighbors. Wish you much success in the future, keep up the great content.
Really excited to see all of the plans you have for the shop come to fruition. The fancy fridge is a great start and I'm jealous as I've wanted one of those since they came out 😄
J&J are just the best partners for your channel, they always come through with the goods!
JR, I am "super pumped" to see you thrive. Congratulations on your new shop and I can wait to see this A6 engine swap in your own new shop, with your own lift and your crew. All the best for the holidays and a super pumped 2021!!
So much stuff needed for the new shop, good luck, love the new content.
Great start to the new shop !
Happy Christmas JR, thank you for doing your best to entertain us during this very difficult year.
Also agreed that Jonny's shop is second to none!
Probably has a fog light code because of the LEDs/HIDs in the fog light housings.
Yup. My GTI has that same dash light for the same reason, lol
Can be the CAN bus problem there
Loving this new warehouse! Can't wait to see the shop setup.
yo I'm gonna need the login info for the remote fridge viewing
I was privileged to visit the site of the world's first remote video camera (preceded the web), in the tea room at the Cambridge University computer science laboratory. It let you determine if there was coffee available.
@@Digital-Dan back in the days when gopher servers comprised the university computer system. i.e. the bad old days
Can't wait to see your shop put together JR you definitely needed this!
I love these vehicles!! I drove one years ago with the 4.2 V8 and it was an absolute dream. Can’t wait to see how it all comes out!
Love the vids bro! 👊🏼
Congrats on the new shop, I love it!
It just gets better, loving the garage and all the new projects 😊
This is so exciting to watch!!! Keep up the awesome work man.
Congrats with the first cool project in the new shop :) looking forward to that!
Excited for the first build in the new shop!
Kinda forgot that this used to be a motorcycle channel.
J&J sound like stand up dudes!!!! Will have to use them if I ever need an engine, etc!
Is Torsen, not Haldex.
Your best video yet, that ive seen, having fun, buying new stuff for cheap whilst having fun, smashing out an engine swap just like that, and some 80's style music thrown in. Whats not to like ??
Rock on...
You were ready for this.
Keep up the MO JO!
Loving the longer vlogs 🔥❤️
Shop is really starting to look nice! Merry Christmas!
I love this generation of audis! Hope you have fun with it, they are fun to drive tuned!
I know that I will never own my own race track, or own a mountain top home with the funds to build a shop and own a helicopter, but dammit JR, I will own a warehouse one day. It will keep my eclectic 80's-90's-00's car collection. You give me true obtainable hope.... keep it up.
Been watching your videos since I’ve been at the hospital with my son loving the content👏
Looks like a good deal! I have decided that we should all get together and start a fund to get JR a robotic third arm to hold his camera. ..he needs it.
Good luck with this one it looks like a really nice vehicle,
Cheers from the UK, Bob
You should try the amazon PDR kits on the fridge lol
I had one of these cars. My favorite car. Was always a blast to drive and still looks great in 2020! ( its my favorite car because of the Daily aspect of it, it drives amazing and can get excellent power out of it. Mine had a stage 3 tune running on 98 octane pushing 400hp )
8:20 My old VW threw an EPC light and I was like...NOPE. Electronic Powertrain Control. Traded it the next day lol
Smart move.
Nice Buy Cant wait to see how it all comes together
That guys 350Z looks awesome Hoovie needs to buy it.
Man the shops looking so much cleaner after scrapping the floor! Nice job. Wasting no time with a carflip as well! :D
Whenever I hear j&j I smile
It can be pulled out the front, maybe 4 hours worth of work to pull it. I've done it 4 times on c6 a6s. I'm down to help with information and or parts.
Oh snap! That is promising news 💪
Then JR won’t have an excuse to get a lift for his lift accessories lol
Yapp ... easy as Fuck🤘🏼
While the engine is out, I recommend swapping the crank pulley with a solid one (they have a layer of isolation rubber that fails eventually), and maybe doing all the stuff under the SC (water pump, PCV, thermostat). Those are the three main fail points on these. Otherwise they're pretty stout. The other risky thing is the DSG transmissions if they haven't been maintained (assume they have them like my S4), so replace the transmission fluid and filter.
The fog lights are tripping a code because they are LED
Was just bout to comment this
I really like your new garage! It’s fantastic
Blew a motor on a 2017 A6 3.0t, swapped it at home on jack stands. Can confirm, the engine will come out the front but the front clip needs to be removed. Not as hard as it sounds and the job took me 38 days (includes waiting time for parts.) Good luck and I wish I could help turn wrenches! Funnest quaratine project ever!
I had an S4 with the same 3.0supercharged. a flap broke off inside the intake and one bank leaned out. everytually seezed the engine. Low milage untuned car. Audi life
I just bought a b8 s4 hit infront will not start just buy a motor for 3700
Doesn't the flap breaking off throw a code? I know the vario ram intake manifolds in some Mercedes have the same issue but usually the check engine light turns on.
I got 140k miles on my 2010 S4 and no problems here
It's not Haldex JR! It's Torsen, the KING of AWD systems! haha
Well, they were until they started making fluid couplings (i.e. just like Haldex) and calling them Torsens still. Fortunately this Audi has a real Torsen Type C in it, so yeah, way better. The good old days. Even Audi quit using Torsens and started making their own crown gear based setups that sound like they might actually work even better due to tolerating higher torque splits than the venerable Torsens.
I just thought of a name for your workshop.... The One Handed Workshop. :D
One armed bandit. 😏
Interested in this one, in middle of doing a complete top end rebuild on a 2008 Audi A6 3.2. Timing chain tensioners went bad, chain skipped timing and destroyed both heads. Not many guys doing Audi’s, great pick!
Insane vidéo mannn
Great. Thanks to share with us.
Good to see some car content again. What lift are you getting for the new shop?
Great deal on that Samsung refrigerator! Well done. And well stocked with appropriate necessities, I see too.
I’m pumped to watch this series. 👍🇺🇸👍🇺🇸
Hey JR, that engine will come out the front, it is just a huge job to remove the front end first (Loads of screws bolts and clips) The issue most have is that they stop after only being able to put the front end in Service Mode/Position.
Just a crazy thought, Use the "small" warehouse as your shop and store your cars in the big one. You will save yourself a ton on heat and lighting alone and still have plenty of room for 1/2 dozen projects at the same time including a paint and body shop. And you will still retain the big warehouse if you need to grow into it. Oh and that big steel rack? If you got busy with a torch and welder you could actually rack cars on it (using the forklift you haven't got yet.)
Amazing, forklifts and a huge car warehouse just go together. Funny that you just happen to have the second one now... 😎
Eighty five hundred dollars into a car that doesn't even drive. Dude, you're way braver than I am...
Yeah there's no way I would have done that s*** not knowing the transmission was any good either
@Social Outcast What you got to remember is that he makes money from TH-cam and cool cars bring in views :)
He paid $5500.
@@Miloshe71 he also paid $3,000 for a used replacement engine. It helps to watch the video.
@Social Outcast Warren Buffett also still lives in the same house he's lived in for more than fifty years and drives a decades old vehicle. He didn't become a multibillionaire by throwing his money away. Yet you read about these rookie NBA players and young rappers blowing their cash on silly cars, gas guzzling trucks and high end sports and luxury cars. The fame and athletic ability doesn't last and neither does that entourage. Just ask MC Hammer or old sports stars. Bo Jackson has done relatively well for himself since fading from the spotlight. So has Michael Jordan.
Nobody:
JR: “EPC...might be electronic power steering” 🤣🤣
Electronic Power Control... The engine code.
JR has just become the New Tavarish except he actually posts videos on a regular basis. Big Congrats on the new shop!
My grandpa sells forklifts down in Texas if you wanna go down and pick one up!
Same car as mine. If you get new wheels I have first dibs on the peelers!
I also believe that the exact spec of yours is the premium plus with sport package which adds those wheels and upgraded suspension.
More space for projects!
Love it
If in need of a forklift, I am certain that your dad can get you hooked up. Awesome to see this all coming together!
I saw a lot of codes for the Tiptronic transmission or CVT, I had an 04 A4 and CVT died. Audi said it was not serviceable and I just got ride of it. But I wish you the best of luck. Back then I found a company that rebuilds the TCM but I needed it to get to work
Bulbs changed in fog lights maybe? I know some if you take the halogens out put in led you get error codes.
Im going to be in your area for the next few days with nothing to do. If you need any more help with the shop or anything let me know . it will cost you a couple of those Dr pepper's. Lol. As far as the name for the shop how about the Do what you want to do garage. Also i would love to show you the big brother to your volvo. I picked up an 06 volvo v50 for under 2k and nothing worked in it. A 10 dollar can of electonic cleaner and a fuse later almost everything working and drove across country with it. What can I say you inspired me. Lol
We use big graco oil drain carts and have a pump w a couple ball valves that goes straight from the fitting on the carts to the waste oil tank. Pretty trick setup if u ask me
John you should consider of getting that workshop floor coated with Polyurea or acrylic coating to prevent oil and gunk from coating the floor.
I call it endless money pit lol
Most Audi quattros use torsen for awd and not haldex. Only Audi I know that uses haldex is Audi S1, Audi A3, Audi S3, and the Audi TT. Love your videos John Ross keep it up!
Keep the videos coming
I can't wait to see your business up and running in that shop.
Love the a6 can’t wait to get another one
Finally, back to car stuff
Um, JR, why just soft drinks in the fridge😳 What about the adult soft drink (BEER) 🥳 Love the direction you are taking here. Keep it up!
The fridge is epic mayne I need one ok don't need but really want 😭🤣😂🙌🏼👊🏼👍🏻
Audi makes beautiful interiors. Class
Definitely living my shop space fantasy
Call the warehouse "Shop WatchJRGo"
Take the one building with a ton of doors and make it rented space for mechanics wanting to work on their own vehicles. Could also offer rented tools, rack, etc. Provide a place to drain fluids. That could generate some fun videos and you could offer some lessons too.
Love the Audi A6 (bias used to work in the garage of Audi/Landrover/Porsche dealership).
Congrats on your success.
He actually did it he actually got him a shop that is awesome dude
Not only do you need a wheel lift tow truck, you also need a Coke machine. We had one in our body shop and it was awesome! It was the old style that took the cans or bottles, you put your money in it open the door and twist what you wanted. The bottom rung was always out of order because that's where we kept the cold beer!
As someone who has purchased MANY (100+) vehicles from Copart, I can say two things: #1) Copart has THE ABSOLUTE WORST customer service of any company I've ever dealt with, and #2) you have to be INCREDIBLY careful when buying because there are SO MANY unscrupulous d-bags and scammers who sell cars there...and don't care AT ALL about screwing unsuspecting people over...it is absolutely crazy. I have never been screwed over there but that is because I ALWAYS check vehicles out very closely and I assume ANY VEHICLE without a key will need an engine or a transmission. I am constantly amazed by how incredibly unwise and ignorant people are when bidding on vehicles there.
YEEET MONEY MOVES 💰+ my dad drives one of these
Happy for you
EPC is the engine polution control. It came on in my previous 2010 Skoda VRS 2.0 TFSI when the an injector failed
Now you are in my wheel house this I'm looking forward too. I have done a lot videos on my A4 and looking to get S6 after I sell my car.
I think you should do cheap common car flip videos with a giveaway to a needy family once a month or so. In between LS swaps and what-not lol.
I have pulled a motor from an A6 out the front before. It was not fun, but is possible. The hardest part is getting everything unhooked from behind the intake under the cowl.
Interesting video but yeah a forklift would be nice. I can't wait to see the next video!
Last couple videos was about talking how its going to be a struggle to pay for the warehouse and today we bought a Audi A6 LMAO I like the way you think.
And a $1400 refrig with a video screen. Livin the high life.
Soooooo just curious what's up with the Rolls did you get the driveshaft???
Copart often has forklifts with I'm sure you already know food for though👍🏻👊🏼🙌🏼🤝🏼✌🏼
