Correction: The part number for the Intake Manifold Runner Control Valve (IRMC Valve) is 037 906 283 C and not 03C 906 051 F which is the part number for the Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAP Sensor).
I just want to thank you for all your hard work and time you take to make and edit your videos. You have helped me enormously in all the feats that I have had to do as a proud owner of an 2005 audi A6 3.2 same as yours! Hats off to you brother and thank you for helping me with everything! I rebuilt the vacuum pump but made sure that I bought the metal gasket from Audi! Your my Audi mentor brother!!! Thanks sooo much👍😀👍😀👍😀👍👍
Great video man, I am tackling the thermostat in my 3.2L Q5 this weekend and your videos will 100% be on the TV in my garage guiding me through everything!
my friend, this video is utterly excellent!!! I have seldomly seen a better one. You really desearve more followers, your work and the way you explain it is outstanding, So thank you very much. Roland from good old Germany. One more follower from Germany.
I have a 2007 Audi A6 Quattro 3.2 Avant. The mechanic said I need an upper manifold because of one part that you can’t find to replace. It will randomly just lose power when driving. Sometimes it will recover a few seconds later and sometimes it will actually come to a full stop then when it stops the car will completely cut off. Sometimes it won’t crank when I first get in. He said it has to do with the air flow etc and because this piece is broken it gets confused. I thought it would be fuel injectors but I’m not the mechanic. How do I tell what the correct manifold is? As in where is the part number?
i have been watching you for a while and ive learned alot from you. i have been able to work on my 2008 audi a6 3.2 thanks to your videos. but i have a question. ive been getting the fuel rail code P0087 and recently i changed my fuel filter and my low pressure fuel sensor. But i am trying to find my high pressure fuel sensor to replace. Do i have to remove this upper intake manifold to find that sensor?
If the system can read the pressure at the rails, your pressure sensor at the rails must be fine. The manual says to check the fuel injectors for the P0087 code, but I suspect a failing high pressure fuel pump: th-cam.com/video/6i3buuHwgH4/w-d-xo.html
thank you! I am removing the IM to replace my oil housing gasket. Anything else/gaskets that you recommend replacing while I have the intake manifold out?
I did not have any problem with the PCV valve but I recently replaced it as preventive maintenance. I think to check it, you have to remove it and look inside from the bottom port. There is a diaphragm inside that shouldn't be torn. A high oil consumption could also be a sign of a failed PCV valve.
Do you know what part number the thin ring inside the pc valve is? I dropped it and can’t figure out the part number to order it. I just keep seeing the thick o ring online for the outside
Now that I'm reading your question again, it seems that what I posted above is not what you need. I am not sure about the other ring you are referring to. There isn't one on the inside on top. Are you referring to the one at the bottom at the connection to the oil separator?
@@Kokouvia hmm.. I am not sure it might not have been on the inside. I’m just now reading my notes that I needed to find it because I’ve been working on it for weeks and have been doing many replacements so honestly I can’t remember. But I’m my notes it was a thin ring on the pc valve. My pc valve looks different from yours though just a little bit.
Hey how you doing brother Where is code P0365 location for my 2006 Audi A6? It's 4 camshaft position sensor 2 on the driver and passenger side. It's saying Note that the “B” means that this sensor is located in the exhaust side of the cylinder head. Bank 1 means that the sensor is located in the engine bank with cylinder 1 so where's it at? I'm lost lol so is it located on my passenger side on the bottom ?
It's the top one on bank 2 or driver's side. I have shown it at 6 min 40 sec of this video: th-cam.com/video/2ngyg1aLoYY/w-d-xo.html Make sure it is well connected.
@@jason.arthur.taylor Ah yes I did. The incident happened in December 2019 and I deleted my older channel (Keli K.) back then. In February 2020 I created this channel (That African Audi DIYer) to share only DIY videos and nothing to promote tourism in my country. I recorded this particular video about 7 months ago. It's a new video that I have never posted before.
There are several reasons. The main reason is to check the lower intake manifolds. It also gives access to components like the PCV valve, the breather hose assembly, the fuel lines, the fuel rail, the oil filter housing, the thermostat, the high pressure fuel pump, hidden coolant pipes, the oil separator.
I actually regret buying the A7. It looks great and is comfortable, but Audi has gone so low in terms of quality! And it's a much more complicated setup. Not DIY friendly at all. Made for shops with big and expensive tools. Yet the steering is dead, the suspension is too soft, the nose is heavier, the BOSE sound system is crap, the engine is crap, quattro is downgraded, the driver assistance features are annoying, the folding screen is annoying, many things are failing... It's a really crappy car!
@@Kokouvia wow 😲 thank you for the truth wow I may just get a 06 A6 someone got one for $750 bad started and alternator 174k then a 09 A8 with a bad starter for 1200
@OTR420 Avoid high mileage even with the C6 when possible. Look for ones with a mileage below 100k miles. They are more expensive but are worth it in the long run.
@@Kokouvia ok thanks I do a lot of highway driving from NYC to Alabama to Maine and everything in-between But my 08 is dented very bad in front back side to side so if I get the whole car for 750 I can take what I need and junk the rest I think a 06 and 08 should have interchangeable parts so may take a few things off and put em on
Hey what's up bro I like you I have an 09 audi a5 3.2 Help me a lot of watch your videos .. I have a oil leak in the front but I don't know where it is Is any ideas? Thanks
@@Kokouvia OK so I have a 2005 Audi a six Cuatro 3.2 L that it will fire over one time when I go to get in the day and if I fed her to the throttle it will staye running but then die again until the next day or maybe five or six hours later but it’s only code I keep getting these camshaft sensors and those change the change the spark plugs in Encanto packs and it still won’t run.
@@laramesweet3227 The camshaft Position Sensor Code can be reporting a much more serious issue with your timing system. You have to scan the engine data block 93 to make sure your timing system is healthy. If the values are too high, you may need to replace your upper timing chain tensioners. It could also be your camshaft adjustment valves. This video explains what I am talking bout: th-cam.com/video/gdqsqCllNXk/w-d-xo.html

Great job

First of awesome video as always, I’m currently replacing pistons rings on a Audi A6 2.0 TFSI. They’re fun to work on :).
Thanks and good luck with your project!

Welcome. The only gasket you really need to replace is the one I mentioned in this video.
thanks@@Kokouvia any sensors? Someone mentioned fuel injector pressure sensors?
@annettehartung3978 You do not need to remove the upper intake to replace the low pressure fuel sensor: th-cam.com/video/qJnDvlfWwSo/w-d-xo.html

The code says bank 1 sensor B but it is triggered by bank 2 intake camshaft position sensor I mentioned above. It can be confusing.
Buzzing on high rpm - problems is manifold intake? 🤔
In my case I think it was.

U deserve a follow
thanks .What is reason to take out manifold
There are several reasons. The main reason is to check the lower intake manifolds. It also gives access to components like the PCV valve, the breather hose assembly, the fuel lines, the fuel rail, the oil filter housing, the thermostat, the high pressure fuel pump, hidden coolant pipes, the oil separator.
@@Kokouvia so im guessing the high fuel pressure sensor too?
Power wise is the a7 a upgrade always wanted one u beat me to the punch brother 😂
The C7 A7 pulls, but you don't feel anything. It's dull. The old C6 is a better driver's car.

Hello! It could be the vacuum pump. Check out this video: th-cam.com/video/Ij9cDUhO3Cc/w-d-xo.html
I have coolant right next to my thermostat housing
Do you mean the thermostat housing is leaking coolant?
@@Kokouvia does the thermostat housing also have a bolt pattern
Hola amigo! My audi a6 does not satrt help me please!
Can you please give more details? What happens when you insert the key and turn it?
P2070 this problem?
Watch this: th-cam.com/video/JNDpkA6HduI/w-d-xo.html
The video is showing bank 2, but the P2070 is for bank 1, the other side.

Ask the mechanic to scan the car for faults codes and tell you what the codes say.
