    Think if I was that far in mate and had suspicions about 1 of the chain tensioners then I’d have 110% replaced it while it was all apart, hard lesson learned here.

    I had a B7 S4 V8 for 4 years ... I still have nightmares, but my fingernails have now grown back ... You're nothing if not persistent. I gave up and now run a 2003 Mazda 6 shed ... I don't care when I hear little ticks & knocks.
    Good on you for keeping the V8's alive - the RS / S's are great pieces of machinery ... when they drive out of the showroom.

    Saving salvage keep up the good work my friend I have the Audi A5 3.2 V6 CAL. I have been taking out the engine more than 5 times
    only your channel helped me out by sharing that information about those 4 cam adjusters at the chain drive, tried every thing cardiagn.com ELSA nothing about them. until the video you share about a random guy who sent you the email on how they should go. Although this one aint V8 but procedure is kinda same. All thanks to you my friend without you even today my V6 would be stuck. I had the same timing problem but only one came bank 1 adjuster B changed it and renewed 14 multi spine bolt now it is running like a clock. Hope this elevate your spirit to do more you look humble man you my role model. Do not loose hope you got this.
