Thank you so much man. This has got to be THE best video there is out there on this. You are so awesome. I just also wanted to say all your hard work you put into making this video has helped me big time.!!
Nice video! My 4.2 with 108K is currently throwing an Intake Control Stuck code which I believe is related. I will be taking this on soon and will be referencing this video for sure.
Hey great vid I had a question the drain for the PCV. The one time use clamp from Audi. Mines is facing inward towards the oil filter housing So access has become very difficult after taking off the throttle body. Do you have any suggestions or tips on getting that hose on the bottom of pcv valve?
Hello , ive a a6 2007 2.7 with bad intake manifold code . Car consume 10 lit in 30 km city , does it consume so much becouse the intake manifold ? In highway 7lit/100km
@@lukefakult6558 Yeah I’ve watched your video a few times now.Did my engine today ready for carbon cleaning tomorrow.It looks like it’s been carbon cleaned before no carbon build up on the value storks just a black film,the base of the values had a bit of carbon build up.Going to clean anyway.Because these have been done before it’s a good chance the injectors have and didn’t what to damage them if they’ve already been cleaned.If they come out easy enough I might have ago at the injectors
Toying with the idea of buying a super clean used 08 4.2 manual tranny with 95k on it......Would you say these things are fairly reliable? I had an 08 BMW 750li and it was an absolute piece of garbage. Constant issues and ridiculously expensive to repair. I have some newer german car ptsd at this point. figured I would check with someone that actually owned one.
Had one for last 7 years, only had a few issues window regulator, master cylinder and slave cylinder other than that had no problems at all - mines a manual
Thanks for this wealth of info. I am planning to embark on a cleaning this week

Best video ever, helped me do my carbon cleaning:
Thank you!
Thank you so so much man! I’m planning on taking this job on to hopefully replace the gaskets making me leak oil. Perfect video for it.
You don't have to disassemble the fuel rail/runner setup, it all pulls straight out in one piece.

Awesome video - thanks so much for posting it! I recently bought a 2010 4.2L 6MT and want to take this project on
Thx, I think I needed this video to gather some confidence to do it by myself 👍
Thank you for the great tutorial this video helped me out big time
Good stuff right here man. Thank you!
Looking at that you can leave the fuel injector rail in to do the carbon clean.
Hey man, great video, thanks for sharing.
I love step one haha blue moon for me but beer is a must when fooling around with these German cars

Thanks for making this video just got an 10' S5
Thanks for the great video. What was the mileage on the motor at the time of cleaning/how many miles since your last cleaning?
Really appreciate your video man.
How did you rotate the crank to open and close the values mate ? Doing mine tomorrow
Can you help me how is the cylinders counter...so if you are in the front of the car is 1234 and bank 2 is 5678 . Is like that right?
This video is too nice👍
My S5 V8 looks not so like your. My intake manifold is other and the gasoil lines too. What is your motorcode?

In highway 7lit/100km
Anyone knows torque spec for oil filter housing and intake manifold?
Do you need a crowbar to separate the manifold from its bolt down position?
Do you need a special tool to turn the engine? If not, how did you close the intake valve?
Luke Fakult thank you again. You’re a life saver.
Really nice video, will use it as a reference when doing carbon cleaning on my s5. Thank you alot, great work and beautiful car !
Did the injectors come out easy enough mate or were they to come out ?
