- Welcome to the 3rd video with the B8.5 RS4
Owner decided to build the engine instead of replacing it with a second hand one. So we got to work and bought another cylinder head and took everything to the machine shop to be checked and replaced. Once all the engine parts were back we started putting it back together. Long and boring video about the life of a mechanic. How boring and long can days be.
Enjoy , thanks for watching - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Facinating to watch the amount of work that's put into building one of these V8's and probably just as many hours editing all the video footage. Thanks for letting us share your workshop guys
This isn't an engine build, it's a work of art!
Like that wee digital torque adapter 👌
In the description, you say long and boring. That was anything but boring. Superb attention to detail and packed with info. Excellent job.
GREAT VLOG AS USUAL
Cleanliness and attention to detail , great work . Still can't afford one though , looking forward to part 2 !
Cleanliness? Thats one messy workshop
@@Koorvkungen
O shut up please!!
"Great! Could you share that website where you're looking at the step-by-step manual for tightening and reconstruction? Cheers, the videos are awesome!"
So much detailed work. Mad props to you and the shop. Well done.
This was an absolute treat to watch.
Really interesting to see this process. Thanks for filming, editing and sharing it 👍
What a great video, your patience, skill, technical knowledge, methodical approach has given me such enjoyment watching you guys are work.
You have the hands of a social worker, they look nothing like a mechanics hands. It's lovely when everything is prepped, clean, parts ready and the assembly can begin. Thank you.
Nice build, outstanding work as always lad's 👍🏻 👌
Thanks for the video, very informative. I have all the tools... But I'll still try and hope you'll be able to work on my 3.0tdi which is coming to me soon. Thanks again. The best VAG mechanic channel on TH-cam. 👍💪
Great job putting this video together! Very Valuable info here!
Awesome :) I had an RS4 for 6 years - wonderful beast.
Amazing video. Loved it. Great work. Can't wait to see the next !!!
Love your videos. This one was informative and it was like meditation watching the CFSA put together
I am hooked on this channel, thanks for the content guys.
Nice work , waiting to hear the engine sound
Top job and a load off hard work, well done , hope it is all ok in the end
✅
Beautiful, guys!
Thanks for posting!!!
O-man thats a labor of love and Patience a freaken 1000 Peace puzzle set wow 👍👍👍
Almost identical procedure to CAUA V8 S5. Good work lads. I like these longer videos of you guys. Much more detailed!
nice work guys 👍👍
Just amazing the work you do awesome and such quality
Fanbloodytastic work very professional methodical great vid👍👨🏻🏭
Along with doing timing chains on 3.0t supercharge engines this has to be one of the best videos. Awesome job. Thanks
Alot of work .cleaning ,cleaning . location, loctite . torque specs. A lot of fun .but tedious.cheers 🍺🍺
Hello there can you please share what software for manuals you are using when rebuilding engines or general repairs for Audi cars! Thank you for all you time and work needed to share these videos with us!
Good work lads!!
Great video :) Hope to see these in future :)
damn awesome content as always - informative and, to be honest, has me waiting for the next steps - all a learning process
very nice repair
nice work guys
Awesome build guys! I use the mercedes sign gap techique for the piston rings. Its about 120 deg or so. ;p
Careful, nearly installed that thrust washer backwards!😀
These guys are the Audi GOATS 🔥🔥
Did you see this engine running yet?
Very nice - thanks for this! I cringed the other day when I watched a youtuber, not necessarily a mechanic, put the assembly lube on the outside of the main bearings… :O
Ignore the haters , u r a professional , keep on doing it ur way how u think it should work . These haters are there to make u strong . Great job keep it up cheers mate . And for all those over clever idiots criticizing go open ur own workshop and stfu .
svaka čast majstori
what a great job, indeed…
so nice when everything is here....
Can see why these engines perform well to tune and modification
Love the videos. Where are you getting access to the workshop manuals?
Another great V8 video!
I’m sorting out an issue with my S4 V8, wondering if you’ve seen it before.
Someone has previously had the timing kit replaced, looks recently done but when I bought the car it was running in limp mode.
Now with the timing kit exposed I can confirm the uprated guides are fitted but the bank 2 cam tensioner isn’t working correctly.
It’s in the closed position and the chain is slack, I can lever the tensioner so it opens and takes up the slack but then it closes again.
Either an issue with the timing or a faulty tensioner, I’ll find out in the next few days but was wondering if you had ever seen anything like that?
I bet this much attention to detail does NOT happen at the factory!!!
Hello, I am a big fan of your channel. I do find your videos very instructive! I was wondering what manual do you use in your tablet? I am getting ready to do my own timing chain in my B7 S4 4.2 V8…
Brill 👍
Bro it's time to pull that on 2'nd screen and enjoy now 😊
Can i be Totally Honest with u all, European cars are with refreshing and Rebuilding, if u have taken care of the Cosmetic side of them in and out, Especially the audi's and the Mercedes and BMW becuzs the design of those cars are timeless work of art, Especially when they get it rt on Certain models, like the s5 Coupe and Rs 5 models are well worth a refresh and rebuild in my Opinion, they are like the 911 and the Ferrari's they are ageless and the older they are and they have been refresh and well kept, it is so worth it to a car guy that likes his are her classic models, great work on the rebuild u guys are like Surgeons 👍👍👍
I just saw this video today. it looks like those oil squirters have 3 bolts that hold them to the block, 2 near the cylinder walls and one down in the block to hold the tubes for the pressure feed. it looks like on the last oil squirter, that you torqued the 2 near the cylinder walls but missed the middle one or it didn't get filmed at least.
Pricey repair. 😅
Please ,give us a walk around your tools/workshop?
Interesting that you used assembly lube in the bores. I was advised by a guy who has raced engines all his life to spray the bores with CRC. Helps bed the rings in much quicker according to him.
what CRC?
My teeth gritting because of the arms hitting the journals and the sleeves. He is belting in them pistons.
Where did you buy the piston ring assembly pliers and what was the price? They look handy 😃
Can you do an oil filter housing gasket on the 4.2 v 8
👌👌👍
What is the app called or website where you see the manual? Haven't been able to find any except the ETKA.
Again a nice job guys! Wondering why you seal up all with the silicone, no anarobic seal is used? Lock-tite 518 for instance.
2mm bead of silicon is what Audi recommend
@@SalimKhan-gk1fh
2mm is a lot, on those flat surface its all coming out and ends up in the oil pickup.
nice
When i see this kind of engines i feel very lucky to own a bmw .
Great video, Thank you! I wonder why are you not using any assembly lube on chain guides? Also why are you not covering rubber gaskets with oil before placing them into their place?
the chains probably were pre-oiled and that's good enough for the guides, but I think they had lube myself from the looks of it. As far as the gaskets, you don't have to add oil when there is not movement over the gasket as you would see with something like an o-ring
@@jamesmedina2062 Assembly lube is being used to provide lubrication to moving parts before oil pressure is built, i believe you already know that. Just to oil the chains before installing them is not enough to prevent unnecessary wear before oil pressure is built.
As for the gaskets, it is known that oil is preventing/slowing down the degradation of them, so it would be great to just oil them up before installing. These steps are not that important to some people but if you think about it, whole engine has to be removed for some of these gaskets to be replaced, wouldnt it be smart to just put some oil on them?
@@spaceboundmg my opinion is that the materials we are discussing are either tough or they are delicate. If so delicate, they should not be used to begin with. We all know about the Subaru silicone debacle. Using too much silicone and the silicone not having the proper toughness. I would need to know more about the silicone rubber gaskets and my ignorance wins the day today. As for the chain guides, they will not get a pressured oil layer, simply some oil so by design as stated before it must be a very tough material to work in that job.
lets go
hey, could I have a make model for torque wrench adaptor you are using? Thanks
How much did you say the repair cost was?
I see you used LOCTITE 648 as the thread locking compound. Understand that is a retaining compound that is a bit stronger than their locking compounds. Do you typically use this when rebuilding engines on threads that require thread lock? I am asking because I am about ready to start building up a 4.2L BAR engine from a Q7 and trying to decide what to use 243, 267, or 648 🤔. My second question “Sorry” I have noticed you have the engine on the engine stand but in most of your builds you end up finishing on a table. Is this due to the weight or just easier to work around. I currently have my stripped block on a stand but held from the front and wondering if I should invest in a table? Thank you and loving all your videos.
It is hard to find out what "the next video" is called. So where to look and for what? Could you please do like 1,2,3,...? What's the name of the following video to this?
Did we discover what cause the spark plug to fail in the first is this just a common problem.
that's worrying that there's crap in the threads .
Is nobody gonna talk about the size of that Loctite bottle??
The only size i find in stores is 50ml / 1.69 fl oz. AND the bottle isn't even 1/2 full!!!
Does the b9 s4’s rocker arms pack in because the cars are mapped or that they are getting driven on the limit. Or do they go bad on a normally driven s4?
They go bad becouse they are faulty designed, but cars made in 2019 or later are free of that issue.
Where can one obtain the complete original distribution kit for this RS4 B8?
On our web vagtechnic.uk
Does this guy even know what he's doing? Everyone knows the main bearings on audi v8's are held into place with sellotape 😂
Do you know what you are doing? Page 87 of repair manual from Audi, it's high tensile polyester tape, NOT sellotape 🙄🙄
@@khalidacosta7133 it's sellotape! And the cylinder head should have a gasket made from blu tack before torqued to spec 🙄🙄
@@I_am_BiG_Al I have no idea what manual you read. It's not blu tack! It's chewing gum. Have you stepped on gum? That never leaves your shoe. Blu tack barely holds on 🙄🙄 Noob!
@@tehgzizlauw1787he's clearly joking mate. Read the comments 😂
Hey @vagtechnic can you share your after market bearing brand ?
Looking for thes rs4 engines , I stay on 1.9tdi .... this too much cost to repair... no risk
Bro my dream is work with you in your workshop
Surprised you didn’t,t check the crank end float with a dial gauge
Audi tech for almost 10 years. You are right but when you’ve been doing this a while you just know.
Jak sie nazywa ten smar montażowy do panewek.pozdro z Polski 👊😄
Assembly lube
What are you using as a degreaser?
Brake cleaner
How frequently do these engines go pop ! Loving the reliability of my e350 cdi coupe. Great videos though, I fancy one of these but am scared off by the bills
Complete engine rebuild every 1000 miles mate
these audi engines are garbage in term of reliability but garage loves them LOL
that is next to nothing. Will frequent oil changes lessen rebuilt intervals?
If you see man driving a German whip blacked out windows leaning back
Leaning back driving past the garage😂
So, where is the video of engine running??
That type of ring compressor has a top printed on it.
I would work for these guys for free!!! just to learn. Too bad they're in London
Россия ! Ростов на Дону !
Уж ! или Гадюка !?
Слава ! России !
These cars are money pits. Silly Audi engineering, such a shame!
You fellas missed your calling you should have been brain surgeons
After this build you can buy proper electric torque wrench😅
😀 hope so
can someone please tell me why they would buy a car like this?
scary how complicated this junk is?
why not just buy a toyota corolla?
Car for old people
@@VAGTechnic and then buy a corvette or camaro for summer use. i had a gen6 2ss camaro. very simple to work on.
i wouldn't have an audi or vw for free.
Tell me you have never drove one without telling me you never drove one.
@@senco981 not interested. i know they drive ok. i value having my cash safe in my bank account and invested.
only an utter moron would buy this audi junk
First
Few things notibly wrong
Is it your poor editing or did you not gap each ring to each specific cylinder, and then keep each ring for each cylinder
Second... Don't use assembly lube in the bores, use mineral oil
3rd was that already honed?
I can't shoot every body make a mobile gundam suit
That customer has money to burn. Wouldn't be cheaper to buy a used engine. Unless he wants more power
You know how much is second hand engine ?
Hey guys ,my ol man told to keep your top ring gap away from exhaust valve,no hot exhaust gas around top ring gap.whats your thoughts
On most 4-stroke engines including this one, piston rings rotate as the engine is running so the top ring gap would point at the exhaust valve at some point even if you pointed it away when you assembled it.
after seeing this video, I think I can build a V8 my own :D (not!)
you missing all the fun!
