This is seriously the most informative video I have ever seen on TH-cam! I need to replace a power steering pump, and it looked scary until I stumbled onto this video! It would be nice if at the beginning you put up a list of tool sizes of sockets that you need, and then in the video mention the size you are about to use too. I could them have them already...just a note maybe for other videos to simplify it even more with minimal work on your end! Any pointers on the PS pump? THANKS A TON!
excellent job. I do have the tools to insert which have stops at their ends to prevent the carrier from slipping more forward. Where would these tools (which are threaded bolts) screw into?
The bumper impact absorber bolts (Torx 45 i think) 3:18 were almost stuck on mine, needed to heat them several times before they finally gave up - almost destroyed one of the bolts... On the 1,8Turbo (as mine) the flange nuts 1:12 on the driver side are impossible to reach because of the intercooler. You can reach them from the wheel well instead - just open up the plastic in the "inner" wheel well. Did not have to move aside any wires or hoses to get enough working space for exchanging the auxilliary condensor fan. The car´s air condition is cold again finally!
I shock the heads with a brass punch first and they come out much easier. I also grease the bolt threads on the way back in. The C5 2.7T bumper cover flange bolts on the passenger side need to be accessed through the wheel well as well.
Just wondering why it was not mentioned about using two long bolts about 10-12" that bolt into the front so the whole front section slides out. Rental tool kit came with them when I did timing belt service.
Thank you very much on great videos! As bekawe2011 said, please upload a video about how to replace the thermostat wirtout too much hassle and on the engine side, how to replace the seals for the camshaft (2.4L engine oil leakage problem) the 2.4 V6 30v engine is the same as the 2.8 V6 30v
One of the best instructional vids for A6 so far... Now I'm all the way to the impact torx and stripped one, what would be your method in getting a hold of it or getting that one out of the way?
Thank you very much for these great videos. Really helpful and (btw) interesting! I would like to learn about how to replace the thermostat wirhout too much hassle and on the engine side, how to replace the seals for the camshaft (2.4L engine oil leakage problem)
on the 2.7l Bi turbo the headlight washer hose is impossible to disconnect, I broke mine as I did not know where to find it until the bumper came off, Bugger!
I have seen this video over and over agian and unscrewed the screwes that is pointed out in this vid, but still i cant get the front lock carrier to go futher out, the top is lose but the bottom of the radiator is still tight, whst screwes down there am i missing? Any who knows?
2001 Allroad: I ddidn't need to unplug the horns. Instead of moving the ac hose it was easier to go through inner fender on the right. Thanks so much for the help.
Bro your comment is a lifesaver, was struggling with this one my 2.7t a6 becauese the intercooler is in the way and i got it as soon as i went thru fender liner side
pull the wheel off and remove most of the fasteners for the fender liner so you can bend it backwards. Then use a small impact or ratchet with a long wobble extension and a deep 10mm socket
Best organized and narrated Audi repair video I've seen. Extremely useful because it is basic to so many service tasks. Many thanks!
Wich sockets do I need?
Best regards

Been looking for this for a while. Good straight forward explanation 👍
Great video! just finished replacing the serpentine belt tensioner and belt this evening.
And Ion the strength of one video, I'm going to shell out for the Bentley Manual. Great info, well presented.
will this be the same for the 02 a4 quattro avant? thank you the video is clear like water to understand.

I think it was one of the holes at 3:20 ?

How long did you heat it up each time

Since Mexico is a Great video...thanks and Please more videos of this car...
Can the starter be replaced from the service position, or does the whole front need to come off? Nice video by the way. :)
Thank you for making this video , it was spot on . This video was very useful and it helped me repair my car :) Many thanks
SWEET! Thanks so much for sharing this awesome video!
Great video. More videos needed.
are you able to run power wire from the battery to alternator on audi a6 2.7t from under the car without removing the front clip of the car?
Best video i see in youtube

don't make my mistake. 17 foot pounds for bolt for energy absorber to bumper cover on 2002 Audi Allroad
@xplodeedy Thanks!
im going to save my self a shit ton of money now
10/10
Sound like Bob Ross..."remove this happy little bolt over here"
brilliant
Drivers side flange nuts are near impossible to get to
pull the wheel off and remove most of the fasteners for the fender liner so you can bend it backwards. Then use a small impact or ratchet with a long wobble extension and a deep 10mm socket
You broke the headlight!
XD
And yet people complain audi timing belts are a hard job. pfft.
If 4.2 then only belt engines. Its a well known fact that you should stay away from chain motors
You're way to close to your mic bro, back off a bit so we don't hear your saliva...
Wow... I can see I started out completely wrong... >:(
brilliant
