Mike Fernie dives into the crazy diesel technology pioneered by Audi Sport in the mid-2000s. Using twin turbo V12 diesel power on track, they then turned to putting the same configuration in a road car, creating the 6.0-litre V12 diesel Audi Q7 V12 TDI.

Cant believe what yas done to your mechanic. Thought more of hamond to let something like that happen. Shocked 😲
What happened
I think may of been a ego trip 🤔 and someone didnt like being on their turf
Hammond is an owner not a manager tbf probably wasn’t his idea. Or have any real knowledge about it
6:04 mistermaxwell how ironic
😁
The Volkswagen Group had the most varied lineup of engines back in the 2000s for both diesel and petrol cars: from inline 3, 4 and 5 cylinder engines to V6, V8, V10 and V12 engines to VR5 and VR6 engines to W8, W12 and W16 engines. There was even a secret prototype W10 engine that was tested in a BMW M5. The only engine configuration they didn't make was an inline 6 cylinder engine because it was not going to fit in their FWD and AWD cars due to the way they package their engines and their AWD systems that require a transaxle to sit directly between the two front wheels.
Only British footballers bought this car back in the day. And they were notoriously unreliable. And the cars weren't much better.
yeah, i think thats one of the reasons they made the r8 into a v10 petrol.
@@SimonBauer7 No. The originally wanted to put the V12 in the R8 but it was impossible to make it fit.
It’s too bad that the concept did not gain traction in the R8 - pun intended. It would have been nice to have a turbodiesel engine in the R8 while Audi were dominating Endurance Racing.
Oh, well… 🤷🏽♂️
I missed buying a 50k km Q7 V12 TDI three years back. Was only 12k euros😂
At its place I have a Porsche Cayenne S V8 diesel
Ive drove an R18, i mean it was on Gran Tourismo but you're not taking this away from me 😂😂😂
Did the owner of that car you're driving think you have cooties or something?
Kimi Räikkönen had a Audi Q7 V12 TDI based in his home in Finland.
the prototype r8 sports car was supposed to be a v12 turbodiesel with 1000nm.
That would have made it more unique but the 4.2 V8 and 5.2 V10 engines were better.
so the same engine as the q7 in the vid like he said.....
Audi make great diesel engines, and great cars in general, got over 175k on mine 200hp tdi 2.0 and it goes well a d reliable, when it gives up ill gett another in a heartbeat
Love these videos. Mike's passion for engines and engine design really comes through. Nicely done, chaps.
Sooooo... R8 V12 TDI build WHEN???
I’d even accept a V8 turbodiesel version of it.
1.9 tdi r8 @@WDLC1911
After the recession of 2008 it seemed like VW and Audi was alowly losing its creative edge. They spent less on making insane things like this V12 or the VR6. And then there was dieselgate
But thay being said, their subsidiaries did continue to be crazy and creative..
Gotta make a video about VWs V10 Diesel next👍🏾
I love my little B7 S4 Cabriolet with the 4.2L DCT. Got my 4X4 F250 SD stuck in my driveway in the California mountains in three feet of snow, decided to hop in the S4 thinking there was no way, and it didn't seem to notice there was snow on the ground. The gearbox is a little twitchy from the factory needing a TCU tune, but I'm going to have to sell it now that I'm retired because the maintenance costs are insane. It's the only car I've seen that's a convertible with a built-in ski holder inside the trunk/back seat.
These days it would be nice if we could get 100% electrically driven diesel-electric vehicles, similar to locomotives. Why new semi-trucks aren't this way already is beyond me.
Because they would be horribly inefficient. What they need is something similar to the MGU-H system that's used in F1.
Powerplant size vs mass carried. Locomotives pull way, way, way more mass vs its motor than trucks ever can. Its a function of scale-- at the small size, the engine is huge. At the large end, the engine is tiny.
Look for Edison motors in Canada
google "Edison Motors" in Canadialand. he's making trucks and truck conversions for diesel-electric hybrids, and his trucks have been verified as road legal for trucking use.
If you look at prices back then it was similar to a Cayenne Turbo S. Even today with all the SUV craze and the Cayenne's on the road you very rarely see a Turbo S. It was faster and better handling than the Audi and had the Porsche badge. So its failure is no surprise and it would have been no different in the US.
I was at the Detroit car show when they unveiled that motor and the valve springs look like they were out of a ballpoint pen that thing would be destroyed in the Canadian winter.
Swedish Scania/Volvo or Finnish Wärtsilä-Sulzer want a talk about the title.
I think marine engines are out of the competition...
@@p.informatico1320he's talking about trucks, not boats.
Or train engines, though they're nowhere near marine 2 strokes.
Really amazing engine
I just have a 2.0 TDI in my A3. This V12 would have been crazy in a road car here in the US. Wish I had the money to stuff one in a R8 lol.
i'd want an amarok with something like that stuffed up front. big-ole-truk energy
I've had two TDI's here in the us. An A8 TDI and my current A6 TDI. Not much like the new eTron or petrol powered versions. Too much piano black, and especially now no wood trim. Seem cheap to me and I HATE touch screens. The I love my MMI interface, don't have to look away from the road at all.
If you were in an Audi executive back in 2006, you’d be hoping that you weren’t gonna get caught for their new “cheating on emissions” technology lol
Mike mustache is coming in nicely 😂
RS6 C6 had the same circumstances around sales and availability. It does also have the same quality feel as the Q7 V12, some tech is shared. Both are future collector cars with low production numbers.
before watching: volumetric efficiency and keeping piston speed below combustion speed
Legendary V12 diesel, just a monster machine, this is the engine I would love to see in VW Amarok ❤❤❤❤
I've got a 3.0L TDI Q7 and apart from some annoying electrical gremlins, it's a fantastic vehicle. I'm fortunate that where I live it's "Legal" to delete the EGR and DPF systems, so after removing that stuff and doing a very economy focused stage 1 tune, I get 300+ HP, 450 FT/LBs of torque and average 30+ MPG combined and 40+ MPG on the highway.
This is one of y'alls best vids. Awesome some.
My daf has 510 BHP
My 2017 All Wheel Drive Diesel Jaguar is great. i can get 50 MPG and go almost 600 miles on a tank. normal about 47 and 550. its beautiful and drives like a dream and IT IS able to run on renewable BIODIESEL. sadly no more diesels are on offer in the Land of the free outside of a few pick up trucks and SUV's
Nice predator moustache
Needs the Dharma glasses to finish it off.
@@HeartFeltGesture little by little he's getting there
Audi: Ok, you can borrow the Q7 but ixnay on the dieselgatenay :D
"Only 5 issues", that's most VAG sentence ever 😂
That Q7 that Mike was driving looks similar to my neighbor's car
Audi put a V10 and V12 in the Q7
Really, V10 was only Phaeton and Touareg right?
@@hansmaulwurf3831 it was the Touareg! I got them mixed up!
M57 and OM606 *peaking around the corner"
peeking
The most powerful diesel ever...wait until he finds out about scania
I just need this engine in an S3 sized car.
Couldn't help but notice that Kenyan hand band
Fantastic!
Jaguar D Type of the 1950s had a shark fin
Jeremy did a hilarious review of this thing. It didn’t make any sense
Of course they make it for the US market and then not ship it over to the United States. In like the next to impossible to find great cuz I want one really bad LOL
BMW had hot v turbo in there road engines in 2009!
21:03 'Why not?' Because the rulebook doesn't allow it
And it would get absolutely stomped, just like the diesels did at Le Mans when the rules were no longer skewed in favor of the diesels.
Did you lose a bet mike ? Shave the soup strainer ! :D Good vid :)
Movember is right around the corner. Mike's already set.
Lol 14 litera every 100 km...
I prefer a 12V71 Detroit.
We don’t need that in the USA. Our Diesel fuel is so bad that it would probably destroy that engine in 2 years. Americans would purchase that suv, needed or not. It would have looked like Audi sold a piece of junk with all the failures likely to happen with it. Well off Americans ( sho old rather be those who have a credit score high enough to qualify for any loan)
Basically. Audi screwed up and should have put it in a pickup.😁
That will be CAT
not a car suv/people carrier
🙂
Audi in general are horrible cars after 40-50k. Any smart person would run from this car/SUV.
Americans aren't interested in diesel unless it's in a truck
Diesel urgh.
Must be a Tesla driver
Pretty boring to be honest
I like the engine stuff but Gale Banks does it best
I dunno, it just sounds like Mike is reading from spec sheet. Really kinda boring. I love engines, but this is not a great presentation. Lot of words, no story.
That title is a massive lie lol
I know Mike is a nerd about engines, but come on, 3 videos in a row is a bit much.
No it's not
To each his own but I'm loving the Engine vids tbh
Don’t watch then. Problem solved.
if you watch maxwells new video on his TH-cam channel sounds like these guys are having a financial problem so I'm not surprised they are making these kind of videos as they don't cost a lot compared to build videos. It feels like car throttle all over again where some executive is calling the shots but hasn't got a clue on how TH-cam works
You’re wrong though
These cars are quite impressive, but they should not be on the road. I know that emissions are typically something that gets swept under the rug with car enthusiasts, but these Dieselgate cars were HORRIBLE in that regard. They emitted over 40x more NOx than what was permitted. Shame on everyone who still insists on driving these things.
Also, they made diesel ""cool"" by making effectively a smear campaign for it with Dieselgate. Real smooth idea.
If CO2 really is as bad as claimed, switching to diesel is an automatic 30% reduction.
@@superspeeder With after treatment that costs a lot and makes the car far less reliable. Hybrids are much better in that regard.
The Touareg also got the V12 6.0 TDI engine.
No it didnt. It got the v10 TDI as did the great VW Phaeton.
@@KevinWeekes-q2t yeah it did. Google it.
1st?
first
FOR FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE?
Everyone goes on with the Q7 but forget about the og Tuareg R50🥲
