JHM has come up with an innovative solution and replacement for those fragile OEM PCV valves which cost over $300 each. If your RS5 has suddenly started to sound like it's whistling at idle, your PCV valves have gone bad. It's also a good pre-emptive move to reduce oil consumption as the valves can go bad over time prior to developing a completely torn diaphragm and the dreaded whistle.
I also watched a bunch of your videos before I purchased my RS5. Keep up the great work man! Thanks!
Great video and kit, mine was repaired a must purchase soon. I removed my cover and put it away. Thank you
Awesome video, binged watched a bunch of your channel. I recently got a 2013 RS5 with about 70k miles on the clock. Car had full service history, seems to have been well maintained however at this mileage what issues should I start looking out for? thanks for everything you do.
Hey! I watch your vids sometimes. Nice choice of car!
yeah min has the carbon fiber cover so this kit is not going to work on my vehicle
Looks like a nice kit. Huge bummer the cover won't fit properly. Those of us with the nice optional carbon fiber covers aren't leaving those things off! Hope the design evolves to allow those to work together.
I think they're designed the way they are is for the upcoming supercharger kit. It won't be too hard to come up with longer hoses to route them like the stock hoses and therefore be able to use the stock intake cover.
@@RS5Fanatic when do you think the super charger kit will be released?
@@tallwelch I can't honestly say. I'm hoping by the end of the year! Replied to your email :)
New owner....love this stuff.
Thanks Eli! You ever need anything, advice or otherwise, don't hesitate to reach out. sales@redmistracing.com
@@RS5Fanatic Yep. Already joined your groups and reading your post. Good stuff. This is my first nice thing so I am all in.
Another great video and something I will consider replacing eventually
Man you’ve helped me so much with my purchase of an RS5!
Installed CarPlay thanks to you.
Getting a carbon clean done soon (not walnut blast tho).
What else should I look for?
The first priority is to make sure the car is healthy and all maintenance is up to date. If you do not have a service history on the car, I'd try to get one at the very least. If they've left anything out, get that sorted asap. It's critical the rear diff and transmission be serviced on time. Once you have that and the carbon clean done, time to start modifying! I can definitely help you with that. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to shoot me an email. Sales@redmistracing.com
@@RS5Fanatic Will do! It’s had every service interval done at a dealership so far, it has 80k miles so the diff and everything should be good right?
@@camfiorini As long as everything is up to date, you should be good!
Thanks for the install video!
great!! you're back 😃😃🥲
Yeah I've been a bit lax lately in trying to get videos out. I have a few I need to finish up!. Never left really, just concentrating on the transmission coolers, developing new products and taking care of customers!
You have stock tail-lights? Also, I wanna thank you on all these RS5 videos, I hope to buy one soon.
What are the symptoms of having bad pcv besides the noise? I’m getting oil on my MAP sensor trying to figure out why? Also getting MAP sensor error code P0106. I’ve replaced it once it went away with the new sensor, reset the code and came back a month later. The chain of thought is that I’m wondering if the error is coming from the oil found on the MAP sensor and the oil is coming from bad PCV.
Usually the dreaded "train whistle" at idle. It's loud. Other than that, a bit more oil consumption. Oil on the MAP sensor is normal but excessive oil can be a problem. I'm guessing you may have a wiring issue or even a leak someplace.
is this legal for street use?
Yoo bro can u please make a video on how much it costs u to maintain this car and insurance cost .. reliability problem, repairs and etc .. Thank tou
did he say, "forced induction" like it was a spoiler alert? or did i imagine a boosted rs5 v8?
A supercharger kit is about to be released. The test vehicle is already in the 10's.
@@RS5Fanatic i seen it. i don't know if i'm too keen on the blower being mounted so low with an intake that could easily suck in some water and it being priced around 7-9k for what, a 14-160 extra hp? kudos to jhm for pulling it off. i'd never doubt they wouldnt or couldnt.. but a top mounted 4-6k with those hp numbers and some long runner intakes with suction valves for protection?
i thought about swapping the ecu from a rs4 into mine with a top mount to keep the v8. and either use the 501 or retro a manual 6spd with twin disc.
the other option is sure to piss off every rs5 enthusiast that ever lived.
@@ScriptureConsolidated Know they just went 10.8 and are still testing/tuning. I hear you on the sucking water part but how likely is that? I have lots of low water crossings where I live and I'd just avoid them. On a roots or whipple-type SC in the engine's valley, definitely a good option from a packaging standpoint but those blowers are not meant for engines running north of 8,000 rpm. You're forced to under-spin the rotors to keep them in their efficiency range. The centrifugal will have a much larger max efficiency range of operation where it's heating up the air far less than the roots blower. But good discussion, should join up on www.audirevolution.net. We have a supercharger thread on there with lots of interesting stuff.
@@RS5Fanatic They did good on the rs4 as far as i know. weekend warriors wont have to worry so much about water. I agree, its a small percentage. not worth the gains per dollas either way though to me. most people wont hit 8k's on the street unless theyre after 1/4's traps.
lol. I know you got the grip homie. i prefer to spend elsewhere. hahaha
but a tuned block? eh, meh, eh!
i'd rather build a billet v6 for near the cost of the supercharger kit. just sayin.
is that a catch can you have installed next to the pcv kit?
Yes but it's for the transmission, not the engine. It's more of an overflow system. On some Audi vehicles, the tuned DSG's can puke transmission fluid out of the top vent (TTRS and RS3 are notorious for this) and I created/installed one for my RS5 since I was doing a lot of hot weather performance testing.
Will this work on the standard 4.2 my q7 keeps eating them and I’m over it.
I don't believe so. It's specifically designed for the RS5. Unless the Q7 is using an identical setup but from my understanding the 4.2L in the Q7 is the older 4.2L, not the CFSA code 4.2L in the RS5.
Dope
Hi, I would like to ask why there are orange plugs instead of hose around the PCV?
It's a bypass kit, allows for the elimination of the fragile coolant hoses that run over the throttle body but for warm climates only.
Did they solve the engine cover fitment issue at the end?
Actually I solved it :) Can give you details. Going to type my email out phonetically so the bots don't grab it and inundate me with junk mail. sales at redmistracing dot com. Obvoiously replace at with @ and dot will be a "." . Can also get you a small discount on them as well.
@@RS5Fanatic Would you know if a failed (failing) PCV valve would cause intermittent P0171/P0174 code? and it feels like the car will stall. However, it happens once in a blue moon. One of the workshop i went to suggested it was the PCV.
@@Pjai1984 Likely not the PCV. When the diaphragms tear on the OEM PCV, you'll get a high-pitched whistling noise at idle. Most likely you have an air leak elsewhere, possibly one of the vacuum lines underneath the upper intake manifold. Check the MAP sensor which is located right up front, dead center, on the upper intake manifold. Just pull the cover off and it's right there. Have you had any work done on your car recently?
@@Pjai1984 One thing I'd check on the PCV if it's not making any whistling noises...the accordion-style hoses that run from the valve cover to the PCV, check those carefully to see if there are any cracks/tears. If there's a small crack, you can use high quality electrical tape to seal it temporarily and then contact me and I'll get you the billet PCV.
@@RS5Fanatic Sorry, I have another stupid question. If i unplug the PCV valve hose from the crank case, should I feel suction at the hose? or should it be closed?
Hey! I’m not sure if you’re still active on this channel but i have a 2014 rs5 base and im needing to replace the high pressure fuel pumps. I was hoping to save as much as possible on the parts but im not great at sourcing them. This is the current hitatchi kit that I’ve found. Are there any other sites where I can find the OEM fuel pumps for cheaper? Or would this be my best bet. Thank you
Still active, my website: www.redmistracing.com. I'd try rockauto.com, they usually have good prices on the Hitachi pumps.
@@RS5Fanatic I actually have an issue i’ve been dealing with on the RS5. Would you be willing to hear the issue out via email and possibly see if you know the source of the issue? Before doing any major repairs first, i thought it might help to ask for advice on it.
@@PowerlessTech Absolutely, send me an email. sales@redmistracing.com.
thank you so much. i’ve just sent you an email. i greatly appreciate your help
@@PowerlessTech Replied!
I don't understand why they couldn't make the aluminum adapters angled and use longer hoses to mimic the same path as the factory units. It's annoying that you can't use the engine cover.
The hose path isn't the real issue, it's the height of the billet adapter that bolts to the intake manifold. It can't be made any lower and the elbows have the tightest bend of any fitting out there. Due to the height of the elbows, the cover doesn't fit. Since that's the determining factor, it then becomes more economic to run the hoses in a more direct path. I actually like the look of the intake manifold without the cover but that's obviously a very personal choice. It's a part that will last the lifetime of your vehicle yet is cost-effective.
@RS5 Fanatic that makes sense. I couldn't tell the elbows were interfering, from the video. I intend to get it at some point. Might use something to extend the clips. I'll figure it out once I have one to play with.
@@DESTcmndr I went to create new, longer hoses and I didn't notice the elbow interference at first either. I "may" have a solution, a low profile fitting, but I need to take measurements to see if it's low enough. When you're ready to purchase one, I can get you a small discount on it. Just shoot me an email, sales@redmistracing.com. www.redmistracing.com
@@RS5Fanatic of course. I bought my downpipe xpipe combo from you. Will definitely be buying again.
@@DESTcmndr I don't always know everyone by their various user names but I had a feeling you were a client! :). I'll look into the shorter fitting this week but I'm about 90% positive they won't be short enough to clear the cover.
Hey man, not sure what your mileage is at, but have you thought about the wear on the timing chain at all?
I'm at about 80K miles. The CFSA doesn't have the same issues the B7 RS4 did with timing chain guides. I do recommend changing the oil every 5,000 miles and not going the full distance to 10K. Use a quality synthetic like Motul X-Cess 2.
what company makes the stainless band clamps used in this kit?
I'd have to take a look and see if there's any sort of label on it. They're tiny.
@@RS5Fanatic lol yeah Ive been trying to find a smooth style clamp to stock up on cause I hate the traditional worm clamp style.
Any new mods coming out still for this platform? I saw online you were looking at e85
New supercharger kit will be available shortly, have new, more affordable bushing/insert kits, etc...E85 is too hard on injectors and very little gains if naturally aspirated. Not really worth the effort IMO and too much of a hassle.
@@RS5Fanatic how’s the Dyno numbers/1/4 mile times looking with all the bolt ons you’ve done? (NA) and what’s the redline with tune?
@@rollypoli5570 The best time with the JHM stage 2, cat-back exhaust, lightweight flywheel and intake filters is around 11.67 if I remember correctly. I normally trap at 114-116mph. Redline with tune is 8800 rpm but fastest acceleration requires a lower shift point. So in S mode, full automatic, it will shift at a lower point so you're shifting into the peak torque plateau with each gear. I can set you up with the tune, exhaust, flywheel, etc...just shoot me an email, sales@redmistracing.com and I can provide a quote! www.redmistracing.com
My pcv just blowed today. Sad day.
The silver version is in stock, the black is back ordered for a few weeks. If you want one, send me an email, sales@redmistracing.com and I'll get you hooked up Yang!
@@RS5Fanatic sorry man. I gotta go through warranty. They need to use their suppliers.
@@yangguo3652 Ah ok, lucky! The OEM PCV's are going for about $700 a set these days.
I swear all audis make the same tick noise
Great content 😮😮
Can you give me a little help if you can? I have to codes which I cannot figure out where to start P301900 and because of that P219600 😢
Thank you for the help 😊
Assuming Audi RS5? P2196 is too rich, sensor 1 bank 1. That's your wide band 02 sensor. Could be the 02 sensor itself or you could have a fueling issue on that bank. P3019 is the exhaust flap in the rear muffler. It's not working. Could be a bad solenoid or the vacuum line came off. The exhaust flaps are also known to seize up over time. If you can do a full scan, send it to me, sales@redmistracing.com and I can take a deeper look. Just let me know model, year and mileage.
@@RS5Fanatic Thank you very much, i will write an email than. 😊
I have watched a few of your videos and I was hoping you can help me solve a problem I'm having with my RS5
Hey Joshua, I can certainly try. Send me an email with a detailed explanation of your issues. sales@redmistracing.com
The factory cover not fitting would be a deal breaker for me, the new JHM Billet dress up stuff looks horrible. Id rather spend Audi $$$ to retain the beautiful orginal cover. :( pity as this product looks really good.
I get it. I run it without the cover and honestly don't miss it. I'd rather have a reliable PCV that'll never break vs. a plastic engine cover.
Kit ? You have ?
Yes, just shoot me an email. sales@redmistraicng.com. I also have an extension that allows you to use the intake cover now as well.
Fantastic! Another excellent, well-constructed video Ape.
I found that a 1 1/16” and 16mm wrenches worked best rather than 25mm (too narrow) and 18mm (too wide) respectively.
Awesome, thanks Christian!
Nice work 👏 👌 👍🏽
𝕡𝕣𝕠𝕞𝕠𝕤𝕞 😠
Fantastic content. This channel is really informative helping RS5 owners understand their vehicles in depth. As a result of this video I’m going to check my PCV.
As 5 year owner of my 2015 RS5 what preventative measures can I take regarding chain stretch or cat degradation as both these issues require expensive engine out repairs? My one has 33k miles and wonder if the above two issues affect higher mileage motors? Calling upon your expertise to give me peace of mind.
First and foremost, keep your maintenance up to date. I like to change spark plugs every 25K miles at most, coils round 60K on the ignition side. I'd also recommend getting a Ross-Tech VCDS to monitor the car's health and scan for codes. Any codes should be taken care of immediately, especially on the fuel side, don't let them fester. Make sure to not let the car heat up by just sitting there. Once the fast idle ends (even before it ends), start driving the car. This'll get the catalysts up to temp more quickly along with your oil and piston rings. This keeps oil contamination with volatiles (blow by) lower. Change the oil every 5K miles not every 10K. Chain stretch is really rare on the B8.5 RS5's. It seems to be more common on the European B8 cars but nothing like the B7 RS4's. Also your cats should be covered up to 80,000 miles in the US. If you start having erratic idle, increased oil consumption, and the tell-tale high pitched whistle, they've gone bad. Yours should be fine at 33K (mine went out at about 65K) but it's not a bad idea to just replace the OEM version with the billet as it'll never go bad and you won't have to worry about it. Can reach me at sales@redmistracing.com for more questions and pricing. www.redmistracing.com
@@RS5Fanatic appreciate the reply. I’ll take all that points on board. Certainly eased my mind knowing chain stretch is more of a B8 issue, now you’ve mentioned it it has been pre facelift’s I’ve seen with that issue. Thank you 👍
You had me until you said you can't use the valve cover. Engine looks ugly without the the carbon fiber cover
