Love those VR6 engines just some about them also easy to work on since its a traverse engine Thinking about getting a mk2 tt 3.2 but they so rare in America Keep videos coming
As always great content. Love the background music in the beginning. You guys definitely need a upgrade in lighting tools. Hood bar would be great and lighting for under the car.
I've had an r36 for about 5 years and I look out for vids on them. I ts not perfect but I do love it. I do think it's very well put together with no rattles. It's quick and touch wood very reliable. I quite enjoy the rarity factor . Hoping it keeps value. Who knows what's going to happen with petrol though .
Keep up up the GREAT WORK guys live by the sword die by the sword!!!...BTW I don't think I mentioned how absolutely awesome your HOODIES they are extremely warm compared to my others so well made and good quality worth every penny!!.... keep plugging them mate be FANTASTIC for this winter as were all trying different ways of keeping warm without the added heating costs!!! thanks guys 👌🏾✌🏾😉
I'm in the motor trade commercial vehicles mainly but I never knew they done this model Passat. I loved my old Passat on a 55 plate last of the old shape. True work horse I bought it with 100k on it and it got wrote off by a skip lorry with 400k on clock. Original engine and box only done 2 clutches and that's with towing a small twin wheel trailer now and again. But great looking R36 never seen 1 before 👍
Thanks for this, very helpful. I really enjoy your videos, they are very well done and well explained. I have the Skoda Superb V6 combi(same mechanicals with a bit less power, mine has the sports suspension and most options) and I am about to do a major service here in country Australia. I have no access to an aftermarket VW repairer so do all my own servicing and have access to a hoist. Thankfully the Skoda has been supremely reliable. I also have the VCDS software and have just replaced the instrument cluster on my Touareg 3.0TDI 4Xmotion and last year replaced the centre bearing on the tailshaft with the help of a retired friend who said it was just like a Bell helicopter system! Using your help I have become more confident to tackle such jobs as I am in my late 60s and have no mechanical or trade training. Perhaps you could include the torque specifications you use when tightening bolts? That would really help. Thanks again.
Thanks for the great how-to video. 👍👍 Btw, we can't see what you were doing down there. Do you mind putting some lighting down there, so we can see what you did? Thanks.
Nice work once again...as always. That's a really sweet car! Never even heard of it over here in the US and I got a 2013 Golf R. Give that thing a good intake, good exhaust and a 6 speed manual and I'm upgrading!
I have a Passat VR6 4MOTION Wagon that is very close to a R36 ...it has Passat CC front seats, 345mm front brakes, same engine as a R36 but my car has the slow shifting Tiptronic transmission...I'm in Daytona Beach Florida.
Owned an 2009 R36 sedan here Australia, paid hardly nothing for it. Replaced a few small services items plus rotors, track pads and fluid then took it to Eastern Creek track where it worked very well for a daily street car.
Found on TH-cam - not my idea : Haladex rear filter - if it won’t come out easy - screw a self tapping screw in the centre - then use it as a fulcrum to lever it out - simples 👍
I would have removed haldex pump to clean gauze filter on pump suction. If chocked pump starved of oil. Since filter was not changed makes this even more essential.
The mighty R36! My DREAM CAR! Very hard to find these here in Canada BUT I do own a VW CC 3.6L 4-motion, it's the "De-tuned" version of the R36 and I don't have the DSG, it's a Aisin 6 speed Auto. Brilliant work mate!
The only difference between the R36 and CC 3.6 is the gearbox, R36 had different DSG gearbox to achieve the 0-100/60 bit faster. I had the CC, didnt felt too much of a speed from it to be honest, S5 without tune felt twice as fast as the CC even that the numbers are not that different.
@@hexagonosaurus5848 Not sure if mighty, to me it felt slow but it's a for sure budget GT car + you can have a wagon. So i would say budget/midget audi RS :D
It's so refreshing in UK to see a professional service where the guys actually know what they're doing. You owe the VAG a debt of gratitude for providing guys like you a huge aftermarket opportunity for repairing their products. What engine oil do your victims receive, is it the usual car workshop brown and slippery or is it pukka stuff? Thanks guys.
R36 is an elusive car over here but I've always had an interest in them. This is a great way to see the realities of owning one. Excellent videos, keep us the stellar work. Ar feabhas 👏
My first rule of transmission oil changes is remove the fill/Level plug before you remove the drain plug! Nothing worse than draining the oil and then finding out the fill plug is seized in or butchered! 😭
@@VAGTechnic here in Canada the early B6 Passat 3.6 also got single piece manifold… lots of fun when removing for valve cover gasket replacement or intake valve cleaning
Could you put the cost off the job At the end off the videos Just an idea I would like to know how much an honest mechanic charges Cheers love the videos keep up the excellent 👌 work
We don’t say the price because- 1-I did in the past 1.5 years ago somebody saw the video and want the job done for the same money 😂 2- every single car even same model is different 3- if somebody is interested how much was it get in touch with us . This bill was If I’m right around 900£ labour material
Hi I would really like to get your advice on a car i am looking to by, i currently have a Audi A1 1.4 TFSI and want to upgrade to something abit more sporty and bigger , i have always loved the A5 and i see alot of S5 B8.5's coming into the second hand market here at the moment. Would you say the 3.0L V6 engine is a reliable engine if service on 10k km intervals ? When looking at one what signs and sounds should i look out for ? Do the Gearboxes give alot of issues or not really I also have noticed in your videos the CATS give lots of issues on these cars so would a deCat be recommended for the longevity of the vehicle Keep up the great work in the workshop and youtube i am a massive fan and have nearly watched all your videos Sorry i know its not a Audi video but its the latest one so i thought i have the best chance for a reply on this video
They have some issues like any other 7-10 year old cAr . Gearbox is OK specifically after 2010 . Engine will need service like PCV valve , walnut clean , water pump , thermostat . Otherwise oil change regularly will prevent internal problems . Defo look for chain rattle on start up and first 1-2 minutes
Just a question: I see you torqueing the bolts for the engine mount using extensions. They always told me that if you use extensions with a torque wrench, the torque settings are inaccurate. How is your vision on this?
Love the older VWs, I'm still loving my MKV GTI. But please - cut the unstable image effects - it is inducing panic, fits, and headaches in susceptible people. Not good.
To me is the B6 one of the best VAG best cars ever produced, BUT the FSI engines were shit, so many problems and for what? Just bit of higher compression. If this would be just a MPI with bit less power it would be awesome engine!
after all your videos (are very well), i start to feel sorry for all VW owners because VW made/makes cars that are complicated and expensive to maintain and repair(lot of plastic on hot places)
Not really sheep's clothing, it has flared arches, different bumpers, grill, wheels, brake calipers, dual exhausts. It definitely hints that it's not your average family wagon. More like a Wolf in German Shepherd's clothing.

love that shape of passat estate and that engine sounds epic still fetch good money if you can find a good one .
What a beautiful car. Very similar to once I drive.

How is the fuel consuotion?
Never even seen a passat r36 . Never knew they existed
Found on TH-cam - not my idea : Haladex rear filter - if it won’t come out easy - screw a self tapping screw in the centre - then use it as a fulcrum to lever it out - simples 👍
3:40. The 'o' ring is on the tip of the filter. It must be taken out fitted and to the bolt on the filter cover. Lol.
Love a bit of Passat appreciation 👌
My Friend here in Australia has an R36 Wagon with Lamborghini Wheels in this colour. Awesome car.
I would have removed haldex pump to clean gauze filter on pump suction. If chocked pump starved of oil.
Since filter was not changed makes this even more essential.
To remove that filter you use a large screw wound into the center and lever the screw as the filter is mega tight

They use LiquiMoly.
@@riskybisness unless I'm mistaken this is a top brand. I struggle to get it.
We use Quantum oil alias FUSH genuine quality
@@raycollington4310 TPS do the quantum oil
I have the 3.2 Passat estate mine sounds nice but this is next level
R36 turbos conversions are 🤤🤤🤤
Some better lighting when working under hoist would be nice for you guys,maybe some local lighting contractors might help out ,cheers
LED strips up the hoist works well for me
I have a LED light for the go pro now should be better in the future
Hi! Do you have the part number for the haldex filter and the plastic cap? I have a Passat B7 3,6, but I am not sure that it has a haldex filter.
Exellentes Video. Weiter so!
Awesome R36. I dont think we get these in my county 😪
R36 is an elusive car over here but I've always had an interest in them.

My first rule of transmission oil changes is remove the fill/Level plug before you remove the drain plug! Nothing worse than draining the oil and then finding out the fill plug is seized in or butchered! 😭
You could always use Software to pulse the haladex pump to use system pressure to “ pop “ the filter out of its vacuum - just idea’s
He mentions he tried that
Ever considered painting the workshop a lighter colour, seems very dark.
Please install new smoke alarm battery :)
I share your opinion on the R36.
Awesome car. Sleeper.
You need a head torch or a light on the camera so we can see what your doing under the car
We never got those here in the states
There is a turbo charged, one kicking about utoob.
With serious power.
2 piece intake manifold, you are a lucky man!
Yes , so sorry for 3.2 owners 😂
@@VAGTechnic here in Canada the early B6 Passat 3.6 also got single piece manifold… lots of fun when removing for valve cover gasket replacement or intake valve cleaning
I wish the made a r36 golf wood be so nicee !!!
There is a R32 Golf same engine as this, identical.
I would like to get my hands on a damaged r36 because I want to make a B7 r36 because VW never made one
Could you put the cost off the job

Would you say the 3.0L V6 engine is a reliable engine if service on 10k km intervals ?

How is your vision on this?
Dont think so
@@VAGTechnic OK cool. Thanks. Glad I have a professionals opinion. 👍🏻
I think you have used the wrong haldex fluid it should be the white bottle for that generation haldex ?
Nope

Whose song is playing in the background? Nice tube couldn’t get it out of my head … thanks!
Hello, We are a car diagnostic device company, can we work together?
puts on oil filter with a torque wrench ......... still cant change smoke alarm battery from 11 months ago
Wish I have your problems
To me is the B6 one of the best VAG best cars ever produced, BUT the FSI engines were shit, so many problems and for what? Just bit of higher compression. If this would be just a MPI with bit less power it would be awesome engine!
I hope my car gets a video so I have something to cry over next time it breaks
Love the vid, but please, consider getting rid of music altogether, no need for it unless you're getting paid to put it on your content.
Get rid of the music and let us listen to you talk about the car and its mechanics and all the reasons that a Passat R36 is worth it
after all your videos (are very well), i start to feel sorry for all VW owners because VW made/makes cars that are complicated and expensive to maintain and repair(lot of plastic on hot places)
Grab ya selves a 2767-20 and stop dragging air lines across paint :D
One day 🤗
A wolf in sheep's clothing.
Not really sheep's clothing, it has flared arches, different bumpers, grill, wheels, brake calipers, dual exhausts. It definitely hints that it's not your average family wagon. More like a Wolf in German Shepherd's clothing.
What engine oil did you use is it the same oil as r32 vr6
5w30 is what vw use mate 👍🏼
