Car is fighting you because you didn’t acknowledge it by saying Das Auto 🤣
Lol
This IS what happens when you don't use the car's preferred pronouns...
😂
Insufficient fahrvergnuven.....
@Rainman Ray: First, about the car, I'm gonna say that the Vetta has a cracked cylinder head -- I don't think it's just the gasket. Why? Because all the plugs looked the same.
As for the difference between "engine" and "motor," they usually refer to the actual potential energy that gets converted: Electricity to mechanical energy; and a fuel of some kind, to mechanical energy. In both cases, the conversion is potential, _p,_ converted to kinetic energy, _k:_ P --> K, depending on the process, which determines loss of energy, such as friction.
However, engines are more than just gas and diesel; they can also include liquified natural gas (LNG), steam (i.e., "steam engine," which actually wasn't used just on trains, but also in mining, and even on a car a century ago called the "Stanley Steamer." That company today is a carpet cleaning company. And, Jay Leno has not one, but 3 Stanley Steamer cars in his garage!), and even "wood gas", alcohol, and kerosene.
A kitchen blender has a motor, a vehicle has an engine.
Looking like it had been sitting for a while!
My sister just traded a vw Passat turbo. I drove that car a couple times and it was very nice and quick. However it burned the oil. And she never checked it so it ended up needing a timing chain. But she never checked the oil and it I believe was needing another timing chain. Anyway it left a sour taste in my mouth for vw regardless. I drove behind her one day and it was blowing blue smoke

While the terms "motor" and "engine" are often used interchangeably, there is a subtle difference between the two:
• Motor: A motor is an electrically powered device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. It typically consists of a rotor (rotating part) and a stator (stationary part) that generate a rotating magnetic field to turn the shaft of the motor. Electric motors are commonly used in appliances, vehicles, and industrial machinery.
• Engine: An engine is a mechanical device that converts fuel into mechanical energy to perform work. It typically consists of a fuel source, an air intake system, a combustion chamber, and a system of pistons, cylinders, and valves that convert the energy from combustion into mechanical energy. Engines can be powered by gasoline, diesel, natural gas, or other fuels, and are commonly used in vehicles, airplanes, boats, and other heavy machinery.
In summary, motors are electrically powered devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, while engines are mechanical devices that convert fuel into mechanical energy.
People use both interchangeably, but the difference is that motors run on electricity and engines run on combustion fuels. It is not age old. During the 70's and 80's it was clearly as I stated. I am sure others will pipe in about how motors and engines are the same, but they are not. Have yourself a great day, Ray.
12:13 - me after spicy food
What ever that plant matter is on intake vent we have same in Houston Tx
I can't believe as experienced as you are that you don't know that with German cars the first step is always remove engine lol
Engine: A motor incorporates an electric driver like a compressor.
What is that beverage you're drinking? It's shrouded in mystery.
I love how you tried to block out the product placement, but still failed at it LOL. Keep trucking Ray! Cheering for you bud!
I noticed that too. LoL
Coooca Cola light, coooca Cola normal y coca Cola ze-ze-ze-zerooooOOOO.
Yup. subliminal message. 10pm and I am cracking one open.
Prodding & poking the coolant reservoir reminded me of a proctology exam. Ray, you are a certified VW cooling system proctologist! 🤣🤣🤣
Gigiddy.

@@kg-Whatthehelliseventhat Yikes that escalated quickly
The fact I myself have worked on this exact same VW and the fact I condemned it to have a bad head gasket or oil cooler and its now in your extremely capable hands is just amazing. I m glad our shop wouldnt touch it haha. Or maybe im thinking of another VW haha
Or some other 800 VW's...
The fact you think this is the exact car lmfao Cus this is the only 2.0 VW in the world, right?
@@Gatorsrokthe joke is that volkswagon is garbage

now we know the secret of why the mcdonalds ice cream machine is always broken lol
McFlurry?
@@Flies2FLL More like McFailure. Those things seem to be down 90% of the time, and especially in the summer. 😄
I thought that VW engine WAS making McDonald’s ice cream!
That really did look like a broken ringland and bent up piston ring on the borescope. It also looked like there was a ring of rust and crud like the car had sat for a while with coolant/water in the cylinders. I think that engine is toast!
Yep. Looks like a chink out of the edge of the piston & the ring poking up.
Methinks this engine severely overheated & is dead as a dodo.
Those are normal grooves on piston top. It was visible all of then have it.
I think it's just the piston crown design.
I agree 100%!
If that was the case there would be more problems than that.
For me, the diagnostic part of videos are hands down the best part! Solving the puzzle is fun lol
Even if it’s wrong ? Doubt this is a head issue and most likely stems from a leaking oil cooler. It now may be more of an issue due to overheating and clogging of cooling system but almost always these suffer from oil cooler failure. While a flush of entire system and replacement of oil cooler and lines repaired may fix it the chance of trouble free service is slim.
Ray, you had me roflmao with the; put the rubber on the shaft and something about pulling out. Lol
What is said rubber and this talk about pulling out... those two things I don't understand, is this why I have 4 kids. 😂😂😂
According to my old tech school teacher, An engine makes its own power, a motor takes power to make motion.
It doesn't matter if it's chemical energy ⛽️ or electric energy⚡️it's still energy.💥
Well said.
Nonsense.
And heat!
And the debate continues. How about it doesn't even matter?
181st! GOOD MORNING RAY AND THE WIFE UNIT! Roger in Pierre South Dakota
At least we know now that Ray is a coke man and not pepsi 😁🤣
And a great job hiding it...hahahaha
Its a Sad day for sure...
🙉🙈🙊
Man has great taste! I cringe every time I see someone drinks Dr.Pepper. Tasted in once there will be no second time. I take a steaming hot Fanta way before a Dr.Pepper.
He must be trying to "be less white".
Ut oh the Jeep returns lol. Why is it when Ray says whoa I get excited for a good video? Anyone else says it and I’m like yeah no big deal. Let the gravity and brake kleen begin.
I worked on VW and Audi for 22 years, and this was very common, 9 Times out of 10 this is caused by a blown oil cooler, pressure testing reveals no leaks and will not leak into oil pan.
It’s a easy fix, good luck with it brother!
it should not be common except vw and audi. Never have that on a honda.
Just recently I had a car do this. Pushed oil into the cooling system from a perforated oil cooler. What a pain. Took a day to flush the cooling system multiple times including draining the block multiple times.
I have no experience with these engines but pressures in the cooling system were so high a hose blew off, and he also showed cylinder 1 was unusually clean. The volume of milkshake coming back out the reservoir was impressive! Wouldn't a small leak inside the oil cooler simply cause the milkshake without the drama? I thought high pressures are a sign that you've got cylinder head pressures inside the cooling system.... After all, oil pressure from the oil pump is usually only about 20-40 psi, cooling pressure is 15 psi, so you shouldn't be blowing hoses off....
@@ayayoutuber Try driving that Honda off road some time, you'll break the suspension in quick order; A Volkswagen won't give a shit. There is a reason a VW is typically 300 pounds heavier for the same size than a Honda or Toyota....
That is an engine, a motor car has an engine, unless it is an unspeakable electric motor car, then it has motors. As the electric car was first, I suppose all naming of parts should follow their lead !
Do we not own a coolant system pressure tester? If it's not misfiring, it's probably the oil cooler and not a head gasket.
I think if it were mine, I'd just drive it to the crusher. I'm not a VW fan in the first place, I think this would be the time to cut my losses.
With 100k miles and 10+ years, that thing is probably toast at this point. I love how the Jetta handles, but it's not a long term car in my opinion and experience.
Ray I had an old diesel VW Passat that had similar symptoms. I first thought the head gasket was gone. But the little oil cooler that sits above the oil filter was the culprit. I fitted a new one after flushing the system and the problem was sorted.
this is not a diesel numbnuts
I've worked on VW for 25 years and it always makes me laugh to watch other people work on them. They get a bad rap but a lot of times the engineers are thinking about the techs in the way they design things as exampled by those angled spark plugs. Don't get me started on the stretch bolts tho...mostly the reason you see oil in the coolant is due to the oil cooler on the filter housing. Run some blue devil through there and replace the cooler, all will be good.
Would that explain the "steam cleaned cylinders"? (and if so how? - that doesn't make sense to me)
@@michelleshaw337 I only saw one 'steam cleaned' cylinder and as many of those I've had apart it's pretty normal for the passenger side piston to be the "cleanest". I will say, I've worked on VW for so long because they are expensive to have someone else fix. In this case, I wouldn't go any further unless I was working on my own car. The oil cooler is about 100 bux and blue devil is cheap enough.
Engineers thinking about tech? What, like timing chains that let go early, and are at the back of the engine?
Do you think plugs are angled for convenience or flame travel ? (??)
@@davidnorton5887 hmmm. All my VWs with chains have over 200k no issues. Rather that than an airbag kill me.
That flashlight around the 10:25 mark scared the shit out of me. Knowing that the system supposed to blow beforehand has me on eggshells! 🤣
SAME LOL
+1 I jumped like it was some scary movie
Engine vs motor. Interchangeable in my opinion. It has been called a motor for over a hundred years. IE: motorcrarft, motor manual, motorway, etc.
Steam engine, diesel engine, gas engine, aircraft engine, etc.
Typically when electric it’s referred to as electric motor with electric being the operating word.
For instance when your wipers don’t work is it an electric wiper engine?
Based on what the coolant looks like, someone put the wrong coolant in that vehicle. I had a 2002 VW beetle with the 1.8l and I did a lot of damage putting "universal" coolant in it as a top up.
I drive a 2018 Peterbilt 579 with a MX 13. It comes from the factory with TRP extended life Nitrate free Organic Acid coolant. One of our other drivers put a coolant in it that wasn't compatible. The coolant frothed up and looked like it had whipped cream in it. The factory coolant was not compatible was not compatible with what was put in it and it became corrosive destroying the water pump, thermostat, sensors, gaskets ECT. The truck spent a week and a half at a dealership getting flushed and having parts replaced.
There is no universal coolant, watch what you put in your car. If you mix coolants to get by, flush and refill as soon as possible to avoid damage. If your going to change from factory coolant to something that claims to meet manufacturer specifications, flush before you fill!!!!!
The non turbo 2.0 is probably one of the most solid engines VW has ever made, they really don't have any major issues other than a lack of hp
Unfortunately the engine is surrounded by bean-counter cost-cutting components.
@@dantesinfernopurgatory7826 yeah, though the MK3 generation of cars are better in that regard
¡Exactamente!!! A quien no le interese poseer un exceso de HP cuenta con un motor de larga vida. Tuve un BORA(Jetta) 2.0 (MK4) hecho en México en 2005 por muchísimos años (desde nuevo) y nunca necesitó reparaciones fuera del mantenimiento normal (aceite y filtros) excepto bujías, neumáticos y pastillas de frenos delanteros... y recuerdo 1 lámpara (incandescente) en la luz de frenos trasera derecha. Un buen motor y automóvil... de aquellas épocas, que no volverán. Todavía lo veo circular hoy día, parece que el fin de sus días aún no está cercano.
I may be ocd, but it drives me nuts to let leaves and crap build up under the hood and below the windshield 😊.
I feel the same way about letting all that shit build up.
It's a virtually guaranteed way of getting clogged up water drains and then perforation rust in critical areas...
Owned a 2006 Jetta TDI. Worst car I have ever had the misfortune to own. Learned my lesson. Now stick to Toyota. Boring but reliable.
The oil cooler is your problem needs a coolant flush and needs a cooler and head strip now he's overheated it, Ray
Broken pistons and piston rings are quite common on these engines. Seems Vw is crap at making engines the last 15 years or so.
My mate had a Golf with the 1.4 TSI engine and it drank a lot of oil. It was turned back to the seller after less than a half year. That car is still not fixed and not sold either.
Also in non english speaking languages, a engine is often called a motor since we do not have a word for "engine". So all engines is called motor. In english, a combuston engine is just engine and electric motors, just motor.
Question - have you ever had anybody cry when you told them what it would take to fix their car?
Well that sucks for someone
Hope you can sort it out
Cheers from Nova Scotia
Aye, thar she blows! 🏴☠ My guess on that odd piece of material near one of the pistons is, gulp😱, part of a piston ring😦
Taste oil LOL, When I was in the Navy we had to test gear oil,. As I was drawing samples a new kid asked what I was doing, so I told him. He proceeded to ask 20 questions. After explaining the whole process he continued to pester me, so I opened the bottle in my hand, stuck my finger into it and taste test it. I got yelled at for making him sick, he claimed I was drinking it.
Ray, wished you would have checked the meniscus of the oil/coolant .... Sad Face :( LOL, Your videos have become a daily cup of reality for me. Thank you.
I think cars are/were powered by an internal combustion engine. Of course in the UK we also use the term Motor car! but I think it's an engine.
I'm pretty sure the rubber boots on the plug wires are engineered to break because I've rarely ever had one that didn't. Helps the part's business.
I regard those leads as a service part, buy them with the plugs, and change every 30 000 km.
How much also is it a sign that those plugs have run far too hot at some time?
Engineered Obsolescence
There is a special tool for removing that type of boot. I had a plastic one and finally bought the metal version. Gave the metal one to a new VW mechanic. Maybe the plastic one can go to Fl.
Cylinder head needs skimming and new head gasket and valve oil seals big job we charge in uk £700 parts labour needs alot of parts
Can we see more carnage of this?
Is there an unlisted part 2?
A family member had a 2009 Tiguan with the early 2.0T to replace her loved rock solid Jetta she had for a long time. Lasted 5 years and the engine ate itself and of course VW shrugged and said oh well. She bought a Honda CRV as replacement and will never own another VW. I'll never understand why manufacturers make cheap knockoffs of their own products and then wonder why they lose once loyal customers.
Seems manufacturers are letting the public test their cars. Any problems around 100k are ignored as the car is too old and blame is put elsewhere.
I call them
3yr and throw away cars
Popped the head, plus you will need to replace water pump as well, because that probably is the failure that killed it. Needs a new radiator as well, and a good coolant flush as well, especially heater core. Yes it will run with those broken boots, even though by me the set of leads as aftermarket is $20, you see many with just the rubber and no shell.
At this point, he may as well just rebuild the whole engine
All the internal bearings and bushing are trashed, include radiator and hoses, egr and hoses. Crusher time
it doesn't need all that when i work at VW I'd do about 3 of these a month oil cooler , reservoir bottle, an about 6 flushes with water an shout then when it's clean i'd do a Combustion Leak Test an never had a 2.0l fail except for one VR6
@@dablack12 yea the 2.0’s are pretty good
Easier to replace rad and heater core once this kind of mishap happens, too many comebacks if you don't changeout everything that has small cloggable passages in it
Ray. Did you notice the American style hose clamps on that Tee fitting that blew off the head? Someone has been there recently... 🤔 I changed the timing belt on my roommate's 2012 golf diesel and I was forced to go out and buy regular screw hose clamps because I was furious trying to slide the German ones up and down the hoses. I hate VW hose clamps. They're designed to slip off normal pliers. Then, if you manage to open them up all the way, they won't move down the hose bc the hose is bulged after years of use. Anyway, I noticed that they were changed on the hose piece that blew off. Maybe it's a clue.
still miss the do do do's
Old faithful action going on there lol
Coax it out like you would a new pet hiding under the sofa lol
It's a petrol combustion engine, motors are electrical.
You could skim/reface the cylinder head to take out any warping of the gasket face, and refit with new gaskets,timing belt/chain etc and probably replace the thermostat unit and flush the cooling system and do an oil and filter change.
Oh, it's due for an oil change Ray!
trigger alert:flashlight gravity=increased heart rate=i think i peed a little bit.
oil is mixing with the coolant but it's not making it to the block that would be the head gasket but not all of the head gasket failed only the oil side failed and its dumping into the coolant ports @Rainman Ray's Repairs
I use them interchangeably usually but I have been told that Motors are electric driven, Engines produce their own power. A starter Motor starts and engine. but as an A&P it is a powerplant.
The motor I class as the whole car.
The engine is the unit that makes the motor go vroom vroom.
Hello John, got a new motor😂 remember Alexei Sayle?
In my personal opinion, it doesn't matter which way it's called Engine or motor. That is an argument that's unneeded because they are relatable and everyone knows to a point that that's not something to really argue about with small differences. I hope that made sense. Lol. One of the three cars that I work on (because my buddy thinks he knows cars and does not🤦♂️) is a 2013 VW passat 5 cylinder, (I currently can't remember size of motor) has been going thru problems of over heating. The heater core, the water outlet housing, thermostat, system has been flushed twice. But yet it's still overheating, there's a little of dried coolant on top of the trans right under the water outlet housing. It's not leaking from there either, I've sat and watched it run for almost an hour straight each time and can't find any leaks anywhere! The only code that comes up on either of my scan tools is a permanent EVAP code. I do know quite a bit when it comes to working on cars, seeing I've been working on them for 31-32 years now. This car has me feeling like I'm constantly walking into a brick wall😂
From Mythbusters " When in doubt, C4"
Are the eletric fans
Turning on?
@@W3BZSL1NG3R sorry, it's just now showing me the message from you. Yes, the fans come on properly. I personally think one of the biggest problems is the fact he bought it from a pay here buy here place and the owner of that place is a scam artist.
This VW engine would be OK in a kitchen to make your own fresh mayonnaise.
ever since starting your shop half the jobs you get are coolant and oil mixture jobs lol
The milkshake brings all the cars to his garage
That leak find was classic 11:10 on.
This would be a great mayonnaise production plant if only they'd used food grade oils.
Not sure about the newer 2.0's. However the factory ones from the early series used a plastic impeller on the water pump. They would give up and crack apart. As noted the solution was to change out the water pump at the same time as the timing belt would be done. (And after market water pump with a steel impeller would be strongly recommended.)
The huge mess also screams "Antifreeze additive"... Blocks the radiator and compounds the mess.
Last comment: When servicing the cooling systems in these engines. It's imperative to only use the factory coolant. DO NOT use any "universal coolant" or "Works on all".. Because that's 100% baloney. Some oddity about VW engines when 'works on all' coolant is used= The water jacket, hoses, radiator, every internal cooling part slowly gets a layer of this white paste build up. Last 2.0 VW engine we had apart used that universal garbage. We wound up replacing the bulk of the cooling system as it was choking off the small ports in the radiator. (Ever do a radiator in a VW beetle? Picture what should be an easy radiator job, and add disassembly of the entire front of the body clip.)
VW Beetles didn't have radiators.
@@ednorton47 Creo seguramente que NO en los refrigerados directamente por aire (motor trasero) pero SÍ en los "New BEETLE" (motor delantero refrigerado por medio de líquido)
I seen that before. Reminded me after reading your post. Plastic crap cracking and replacement was metal. Buddy of mine told me about VW being picky about fluids to. Use there coolant and synthetic oils. Even the power steering fluid. If you don't, your screwed. Pumps fail, lines blow out etc etc. He said they are the pickiest and one of the more expensive cars to maintain. He had one. It broke down in a cell phone dead spot. He walked a 100 feet up the highway to get a cell signal. Drunk driver hit the car totalled it. He was facing the other direction heard a load noise, car was airborne. Flipped it over the guardrail. Guys insurance paid him over 10 times what he had into the car. Lol.
Been there done that 😂 fishing all the plastic bits out of the engine sucks
The good ole 2.slow. That engine was great. Hard to kill, and if you did the water pump and timing kit properly at 100k mi, you only ever had to change the oil and maybe wires for the next 200k mi. The whole car would rot away back into dust around a mkIII 2.0 engine 😂
like i said about one month ago your cars are going to be coated with rock dust from the people next to you cutting the stone or marble with a saw
You could specialize in coolant/oil mixing. You sure get your share of them.
if it looks like a duck smells like a duck tastes like a duck it must be a chicken everything tastes like chicken :)
Hey Ray, interesting video. Hopefully it's an easy fix like some of the commenters have said. Cheers!
oil cooler! sadly typical for VW :) had the same symptoms, same stuff with a caddy, same engine aswell :D
Epic understatement. "There 's the leak!" as the engines disappears in a cloud of steam and crud! Thanks for the laugh Ray. Made my afternoon!
Ray's diagnostic and observational skills always amaze me! 🤣
One of the funniest thing I think I have seen on Rays channel......... Little tube spraying out steam from hot engine....... Ray uses a small piece of blue paper towel to stop it then says OWWW HOT..... errr what did you expect, ice cubes? 😅😅
I can't wait to hear an see what's next with project jeep. I like how you thru that into the beginning of the video❤❤
Those metal pieces they might be the upper ring might be broken.
This poor Jetta had too much Taco Bell.
😂
No, it had too many vanilla milkshakes from Dairy Queen.
Have started fast forwarding your vids now getting real slow and drawn out a shame mush
Love your work Ray! … But you really did a half-assed job covering that can! 😂
motor - a machine, especially one powered by electricity or internal combustion, that supplies motive power for a vehicle or for some other device with moving parts.
engine - a machine with moving parts that converts power into motion:
The terms are interchangeable when it comes to internal combustion machines used to power vehicles.
I love your intro it's got a nice 80s vibe to it
If the logo was on a shirt, I’d buy it!
Hi Ray .I always laugh when you guys say a motor is destroyed. That motor is very popular here in South Africa .It is a very strong motor and takes alot to destroy them.. Just rebuild one or rather replaced the importend stuff. i repaced big ends ,rings,it will run for another 100000 valve stem seals and skeemed the head. Replaced all the gaskets. .the oil is more expensive than all the parts combined lol. Everything came to in your money to about 180 dollars.
Labor and time is the big cost here.
Compression check would be my first activity on this engine.
And rad system pressure/vac test too
Motor = electric, engine = fuel burner.. You do make sense Ray. No worries.
All you need now is that ring tone even if you don't get calls set it to go off every 10 minutes 😅
Last Rites being said for this poor sole.😵
since 24:00 felt a strong urge to buy cocacola. Dam you RAY!
He was hiding his shame ,
From all US Pepsi lover's
Your question about Motor or Engine... Here in England, the word Motor is used to refer to the entire vehicle, so over this side of the water, the correct term would be the Engine, because the engine is in the motor.
Hahahaha best blur of refreshment I've never seen.
Coke isn't a refreshment.
Pepsi is tho..
🙉🙈🙊
One of my cars is a 2011 Jetta but with the 2.5 5 cylinder
I love the camera looking at the piston part! Thank you Ray!
This engine failed
I was taught engine's are combustion and motors are electric.
I would like to say it doesn't bother me that people use engine and motor interchangeably, but it does and I can be pedantic about it at times. As an engineer by training, I feel compelled to explain that things with internal combustion are engines and that things with magnets and windings (and therefor electricity) are motors.
I'm amused that the English (you know, the ones who invented the language) used to refer to cars/automobiles as "Motors". As in "Ask Jeeves to bring the Motor 'round to the front."
That's the way I was taught.
I think ‘engine’ is too complicated for people to think about
Yes sir. My father taught me that as a child, then again he was an electronic engineer
What do you think of outboard motors? LOL
I would have done a compression test to determine which cylinder is blowing. I would have also flushed the cooling system and done the test run with plain water, possibly with the thermostat removed. Just the contamination would make it tend to overheat as you are trying to cool the engine with sludge.
I think what we could have been looking at May have been part of poison rings?
I love seeing your shows on TH-cam. I think you are at one great mechanic
I've always heard if it requires an outside source to run, it's a motor, example would be electricity as a power source. If it is self-sustained, it's an engine.
blame ford, started the cadillac motor company then the ford motor company, that trend just kept going with general motors. so either works for ICE while electrical are just motors.
The engine versus motor debate. At the racetracks in New England the powerplant that propels the racecars is called a motor or "motah" in the eastern and northern areas. Most oil bottles on the shelves at parts stores are labeled "Motor Oil". This Connecticut Yankee, who has never set foot in King Arthur's Court or learned the Queen's version of the English language, has always called the automobile power source a motor (motah).
Also the term Motor Car comes into play.
Don't worry too much Ray, those spark plug wires ALWAYS break. They aren't cheap, but the dielectric grease will keep new ones from sticking.
I have a 2003 VW New Beetle with the 2.slow.
Also, anything plastic breaks. I was surprised that none of those plastic/rubber parst didn't disintegrate when you looked at them.
I had the thermostat housing crack on me and lose coolant. I was able to nurse it home by keeping it full of coolant, then later I had it towed to a shop.
I asked the guy, since he was all up in there, to please do the timing belt and water pump.
It was a good thing I did!!!
It turns out, that cracked thermostat housing SAVED my ENGINE!!!!! The timing belt was shredded, and the water pump came out in pieces. All that, the tow bill, and full replacement of the outer belts cost me $1100. My serpentine belt is grooved on both sides and is over a C-note alone. I also asked him to make sure the replacement water pump had a METAL impeller! Always replace with better than OEM!!! The OEM is FREAKING PLASTIC!!!!
Because Volkswagen.
PS...
IMHO....
It's ENGINE. Because engine is actually the shortened version of "internal combustion engine".
A "motor" is electric.
Don’t know if you know, Mk7 (2015 and later) Golf’s on the MQB platform (not sure what year Jettas, etc.) use a PLASTIC OIL PAN.
Because Volkswagen.
I wonder what The Humble Mechanic would access to this situation ?
And the internet goes wild. Ray puts regular antifreeze in a Volkswagen!
Engine's toast anyway
@@bigtruck57h25 I figured it was from the start. 2.0 VW life. I still would have used water. I am cheap that way
It's kinda sad that Volkswagen has fallen so far. The VW Bugs and buses were air cooled. The 1980s VWs and quite a number of diesels from many generations were tanks.
I’m curious what caused the engine to overheat and blow a gasket
Plastic water pump impeller fins most likely broken...
A Volkswagen in its natural habitat
Cylinder head needs to be skimmed. I would guess that the Cylinder head gasket failed .That is coolant port nearest to edge of Cylinder.water has worked its way through gasket.
Take Cylinder head off you should see a worm like groove on Cylinder head where water has worked its way through gasket.
This has happened twice to me on two different cars. Always on coolant port nearest to Cylinder. The head will need welding and then skimmed.
Will be as good as new.Also this can happen with oil.then you get clouds of blue smoke out of the exhaust. 🇬🇷
Ray, you need a cooling system pressure tester-if it was a blown head gasket you just let it sit under pressure for 15 mins and watch the coolant run down the cylinder walls with a borescope. You might want to upgrade your borescope too, you can get one with an HD camera with a side camera built in for less than $150 online, a high quality image makes a big difference when you see a chunk of carbon on top the piston and can't make heads or tails if it's something else. ALSO, I think on that year range the cooling systems on passats and jettas are really bad about electrolysis, heater cores are readily available through the dealer because they clog up and lack heat output. Our local dealer told us something along the lines of if the car needs it's 3rd heater core then they quote a radiator and engine due to lack of flow. I think you're in FL so I'm guessing people just don't use the heater as much there and may not be as known of an issue. Also ALSO, those spark plug boots are made to be removed using a tool(of course), look up a CTA 3055. I only know this because a customer supplied one for spark plug replacement on a Eurovan VR6 with waste spark ignition, he got new plug wires anyway because they had carbon tracking I think-had to take out the cooling fans to do it if I remember correctly, it was dumb. I've never had to diag a failed oil cooler for these engines, or any VW so far fortunately, I've also never seen a head gasket failure on these 2.0L but if they ran it out of coolant then it's definitely possible. Would love to see more of this car if you go deeper into diagnosis, I'm not totally convinced the cyl 1 piston was completely clean, as you were pulling the scope out the left side of the piston looked like it had similar carbon build up to the others but you would know better since you've been in there on and off camera. I don't get these engines in that often, mostly the TSI's and those have PLENTY of issues, so I find this case interesting. Anyway don't let it get to your head just keep up the good work 👍
Because of the cooling system contamination, Ray does not want to damage his tools for leak detection with said contamination.
Ray already has a cooling system pressure tester, IIRC. But he stated early on in the video that he can't do any cooling system tests because of all the oil contamination.
I'd forgotten that VW brought back the 1980's/1990's/early 2000's Engine for the base Jetta. Time capsule!
