- Welcome to another video.
This time I was contacted by the owner of an Audi S8 from the USA. After a long long long conversation we ended up buying a second hand engine just for £1500! After I start taking it apart it proves to me again that a second hand engine can't just go straight in .
Thank you for watching If you want to get in touch visit our website

Always a great day when VAG uploads a video! Thanks again for keeping all of us informed!
From Mat Armstrong/Tavarish video series of his RS6 on the US, be mindful that LHD engines have some differences with the RHD ones. Mostly brackets tho, but might not be a straight swap. Probably you have this already in mind anyway! Keep up the great content.
someting to deff take into considaration
I have that V10 in S8-2008 black with full spec, even with fridge for last 5 years, very very good condition. No problems. Best car ever ;)
It`s always a pleasure to watch your videos. I admire your work ethic and also the fact that when a mistake is made, i.e the oil spillage, you don`t edit it out. That to me shows even good mechanics can make slipups once in a while. Keep the content coming, can`t wait for the next one on this build.
Absolutely love this video... coming from another stateside D3 S8 owner. V10 content is like hens teeth. Cheers guys. Thank You.
BTW I always get my injectors cleaned and flow matched before re-installing them. You can also buy used injectors and then have all 10 injectors tested, cleaned and flow matched by a shop who does that professionally.
Love seeing the Allroad out and about again!
Very interesting project. Clearly your expertise is appreciated as evidenced by a viewer thousands of miles away enlisting your help. Hope we can see this all the way through installation of the rebuilt engine in a vehicle.
"You will wake up from your wet dreams and be a very sad person again". Quote of the Day.
I love watching your methodical ways and placing the engine parts in a way to help u understand how to rebuild. Very expensive Audi problems
You’re brave to take this one on. Let’s hope there are serious differences between the two engines. It’s lovely to see an unstressed naturally aspirated engine. All that turbo related junk not getting in the way or over pressuring the engine. Good luck.
Love the lighting in your garage. Really striking !
27:00 Looks to me like the regular service intervals were not adhered to with this engine. It's rather dirty inside with lots of varnish everywhere. Change your oil regularly. It's cheap insurance.
30:50 - Yep, you agree.
You said that it is a very simple engine, just at the very moment I was thinking what a complicated engine it looks! 😂
It’s always a good day when Vag Technic uploads another informative video. You guys show us how a garage knows what they’re doing.
I just wish Vag Technic were much further down in the South.
I don’t trust many garages near me.
Brilliant content Thomas.. looking forward to the rebuild🤟
You are just so meticulous with your work...❤
My personal opinion is that your videos did not need any edditing. You show things that nobady does. Even your mistakes. Please continue that way !
Yes the color of the kisluxbag is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…
So educational - thank you. Remind me to ask my surgeon to refurb before transplanting my next heart.
Fair play to you, that's a lot of graft and dedication ❤💪🏻
Absolutely love your content! Never miss an upload. Much love from Canada
This is by far the best video yet; such a cool project!😃
Great video man.
Got the same engine under my Summer Car Hood. Looking forward to do the same one day. Watching you makes you feel like its quiet easy :D
I am fan of M but big respect for job what you do.
Really enjoying your channel and the excellent content even if it has put me off ever buying an Audi 😅
Great videos as usual, keep up the great work guys!!
Skilled drone pilot!!
Great to see it being stripped - surprised you didn’t check to see if it had oil in before the strip down even if you assume it should be empty not everyone thinks the same! Like you said no harm done
just finished rebuilding BXA v10 , you are gonig to love this power train
My experience is similar. Paid $10,000 cdn for a second hand engine. Did some basic refreshments to it. Installed it.. Drove it for a day. I wasn't gentle. After that, I was crusing down the hwy in 6th gear when the bearing spun. Took it apart, rod bearing #1 spun. The rest of the rod bearings were in rough shape. Oddly enough all main bearings were ok. Now I'm rebuilding it with additional expense. Also, if you have a spare 4.2 BNS rod lying around you'd sell please let me know! It's my last piece to the giant puzzle.
Great stuff Thomas, love it. Can’t wait for rebuild…
Good job this was simple engine - looks at 100 timing chains, guides, sprockets, err ok 🤣
I need shares in TPS and VAG Technic will make me a rich man 😁
The wife was not too happy with putting that beast in her car 😂
she was afraid.. oh sorry - bała się o karton ;)
@@waldemarfrank6695They are slovakian, not polish ;)
@maxbiagi3091 I know but often the words are similar ;)
@@waldemarfrank6695 A specially the one 😂😂😂
Excellent video as usual, could watch this all day.
You would need (1)1.5-2 m3/min compressed air on 8-10 bars for the metal surfaces for a smaller blaster (4-5 maybe 6 millimeters nozzle). That means a (5)-7.5-11kw screw compressor at least. 30 kgs/h sounds okay for delicate cleaning. I would rather use a wider nozzle and estimate maybe 70-100 kgs for cleaning the outside depending on your standards of cleanness. I would spend maybe 150-200-250 kg on this engine depending on your skills and standards you want to achieve. There are good blasters made in EU from maybe like 7-8k+ eurs with 3 years of warranty. The excessive fog indicates rather low pressure/airflow comparing to the used dry ice or excessive moisture in the air.
seen a few intakes getting cleaned with walnut blaster seams to work a treat
Great video, you put in some hours, fair play. 👏🏻
I always thought that Hitachi is the OEM manufacturer for these Audi fuel injectors. I also damaged one of the fuel injectors of my V8 Audi S5, so I just purchased Hitachi OEM injector. I never had an issue.
If you have an air compressor, then you should look into getting a media blaster that you can use walnut and sand abrasive media into it. Since you duality carbon clean only when the engine is pulled out, it’ll be a lot easier to send blast intake valves. However your sandblasting wand should be long enough to get deep into intake port.
We had continental
Great content as always. 👍
I would recommend you use walnut blasting to clean the intake ports instead of dry ice. The blasting media is much cheaper than dry ice and the results are great.
Agreed for engine in car cleaning, but in this case if you are stripping the engine entirely, may as well do it the old fashioned way (cleaning bath).
That's because you can grow you own walnuts! @@miceinoz1181
7:10 when she asks you if is already in... 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome videos dude watching from Australia
i miss my DS2 S8, such a beast and black on black, very mafia.
Great video and great work as always
anyone cringing at the thought of this engine going into this lovely interior?
Amazing work interesting video 👍
Interesting video. Keep them coming. 😊
I bet you never tried to use Mr. Muscles to clean the carbon from the intake ports 😅
Beautiful quality videos 😊
yeah, that's alot of pistons and displacement! but the timing chains are measured in looks to be 10s of meters, no thanks. apparently the modern V6s have lost all of this setup and have a mid point gear that drives the cams to chains! so maybe only 3 now. a person is brave to have one of these v10s, split crankshaft! so this is very much like that generation V6 thought with 4 cylinders added... wow
Man I wish we got the c7 a6 allroad in the states, nor did we get the c7 s6 avant, that C7 generation in estate form is absolutely gorgeous
You can buy C8 with 3.0tfsi 🤤
@@VAGTechnic I have the C5 with the 2.7t and I love it, I will own the C8 sooner or later 😆
great video great attitude
great work 👍👍
I'm honestly really impressed that the V10 fit in that car!
Wouldnt want to have a crash with that lump in the back...
@@TranceGrid Nooooooo. No you would not
When fit under the bonet, should fir in the trunk also 😂
I had visions of a confused accident investigator looking for the rest of a car!
Still some vw passat w12 wagen second hand in germany...could be a nice project
So is this still going to America? The shipping alone must make it super unaffordable.
Doesn't corrosion down the injector holes ever cause problems obviously you have to clean them up
24:12 it was at this moment that he knew he f***ed up
Great info in that video! What do you about the missing intake flaps? They should result in huge power loss and from what I remember only a new intake solves the problem?
Why make it easy? Great work any way. :)
at least you aren't getting any sunburn over there....
Thank you so much for this video! 👏🏼 About the carbon in the piston rings - do you think it is because of the intake air, or the lack of oil changes? I have a fully working S8 for now, just thinking of preventive measures to keep it healthy, such as engine oil flush (BG products).
Lovely content man 🔥. I have a question regarding direct injection engines. Is there a way to prevent carbon build up at all? I assume best way is regular oil changes like instead of 1 year do it every 4 months/6 months instead of 15000km do it at 5000/7500km with high quality oil?
Again - Oil Changes, or in this case of the second-hand engine, missed services/lack of. Whether naturally aspirated or forced induction, my OCI limit is 5k miles. And when I do the oil & filter changes, its a higher-quality VW504 (B9.5 RS5) or VW508 (B9 SQ5) oil and the OEM-branded filter. I've had good success with UOAs using Ravenol, purchased through Blauparts here in the US.
Again?
let's hope you don't have to hit the brakes with that beast sitting in the back
That’s why people invented straps
I have b9 2.0 tdi 140kw 220 000 km what i should check? oil changes 10 000km. i have new ad blue tank and control unit, new EGR cooler.
Audi Professor
All dat kislux bags sssssoooooooo gorgeous
the thousandth like is mine😜
Imagine having a crash with that behind you!!
🤷♂️ strapped down
@@VAGTechnic are those shopping hooks strong?
The wiring harness will probably be very different on a left-hand drive car so i am guessing that this will need to be swapped
He Have full running car there just engine unit swap
in ultra sonic tank deep clean
Question for you. Im rebuild a Golf R mk6 engine, EA113 i measure the bore it's good and look good no scratches etc.
1- What is the is the "minimum" machining need to be done.
2- After measuring crank and it all good what is need to be done on it to be reused with new forge rod. Basic facts.
People need to leadn that oil need fo be changed 6-10k miles or every year. Idealy engine flush and ceratec afterwards
yo man, love your videos, I'm pretty much the same age as you are....all great, but could you, please, pretty please, exclude, them dancefloor muscin crap from the background music and use something more neutral? please? much appreciated. it kinda reminds me of maduar or mc erik crap. cheers!
Calm down boomer. Take more MDMA
Where are you still sourcing hitachi? Are they same as hitachi?
how many km have the engine?
Red overspray all over that thing?
Nice 1
where to get this allroad badge red thing ? is this china or anything better quality ? any tips were to buy ?
Hey, you just put a second hand V10 in your A6 C7!!!
LOL 24:15 thats your fault
Dude get yourself a small van 🤦🏼🤣🤣
No space 😀 usually I don’t go and check or pick up engines but this of one of case
Hello guys. I have a problem on my audi a6. Mostly it gives me an error for Audi adaptive light, and an error for high beams. The lights work, when the vehicle is started they go up. But when I turn, the lens does not turn, but the auxiliary lights in the headlights come on. very weird. Plus no longer automatically raises and lowers the high beam and dipped beam.
VCDS SHOWS ERROR
0061 - Funktionseinschrankung wegen unplausibler Botschaft
U1112 00 (137)
You might have sensor issue
Non OEM windscreen by any chance? You may need to code the opacity of the glass.
@@VAGTechnic
nothing was changed, everything is OEM, it just gave me an error and the adaptive lights stopped working. I also assume it's a sensor, but which one? is it in the interior mirror or on the undercarriage of the vehicle?
The code I got via VCDS doesn't reveal much, I need to connect to OEM Audi diagnostics.
I had doubts about the sensor in the windshield, but it still perfectly recognizes when to turn the automatic lights on and off... Likewise, the lenses do not turn, but the auxiliary lights in the cornering headlights come on. It is an Audi A6 2014 limo 2.0 tdi
Hello, what is the mileage of this second hand engine?
Around 90k
Do you recommend raising the oil pressure on this engine? I need an answer
On V10 ?
@VAGTechnic yes Lamborghini Huracan engine
@@VAGTechnic 46k mails
why the drone
Why not?
Those pistons look like they belong in a Kia, not an S8. People, please change your oil!!
Wake up from your wry dream unhappy again...😂
This music is unbearable
I disagree. It was great
I had same problem as you with your fucking mess.....mine was gloss paint
No offence but you have terrible taste in music, still watching though 😅😅😅
He needs a truck
Very cheap engine
Kool engine
People probably think your a successful gynaecologist driving round with that private plate… 😂
Who speak the polish there? I heard "no stary" 11:28
🇸🇰
get a second hand hot tank for engine parts. will take off all carbon and oil without paying for dry ice.
Can I clone you my friend ? 🫡
