I'm not a mechanic, just asking now. How smart it is to fill up an engine with water? It just seems unlogical to me, can someone explain? Wouldn't it be better to use some solvent on those particular parts that need to be cleaned or something like it that doesn't cause corrosion and evaporates quickly?
Great Video! You did it again, captured the extract issue I am dealing with on my 2010 Q5 3.2. The 120K is complete BS on Audi's end, they never sent anything out regarding this issue. I didn't find out until my vehicle had 125K on it. The great debate is boot legged inspection stickers for the life of the car or pay $1,500+ to get a shop to repair.
@SpaceXForce I pay about an extra $100 at the inspection places for them to use another vehicle for the emissions testing since it won't pass. I've been doing that for the last 5+ years..
wow, another solid case for justifying a SAI delete if I've ever seen one. how much B-12 Chemtool do you think it would require? How straight is that passage? Would a flexible rotary brush followed by the washer be a better way? Which hoses are responsible again?
In hindsight would it have been better to remove everything to go straight into the port? The tool provides measurements to align the perpendicular ports.
I was changing fuel injectors on cylinder 1-3 on my 3.2 q5 and after I changed them I noticed the pcv valve failed and now there is coolant in cylinder 3. Should I have changed my lower intake gaskets or is it a bad head gasket
Question, I cannot find this information anywhere online, is the upper intake manifold on a 2010 Audi Q5 3.2 serviceable? It looks like it has moving flaps inside, if those flaps jam up is the only option a complete replace? I am getting miss fires on moderate to heavy acceleration. I don't think it is vacuum related. If I drive under 2,900 RPMs everything is fine, mostly
My car has 80 k miles ,09 Audi says is over 10 year old won't do it in warranty. Cost is 2k $. Where did you get that 120k miles from , please. Super good video and informative too.
Whete can I find documentation of the issue being under an extended warranty under 120k…my 15 S5 is in the shop right now and they said its only 8y/80k and will have to come out of pocket 2500??? Help me before its too late lol

Most shops remove the whole front end to complete this job. I really like the use of a flexible hose. May I ask a rough cost estimate for this?

Do you know if Audi warranty has a year limitation because my vehicle has under 100,000 but it’s 15 years old?
@SpaceXForce sadly yes, 10 years or 120,000 miles.
@@flash_gordon-97 That's too bad. What did you end up doing?

@@flash_gordon-97 not a bad tradeoff, you wouldn't happen to live in socal would you?

How much does a shop charge for this job my q5 has this issue also. Thanks

I’m in the exact same dilemma as you may ask what did you end up doing to get this fixed?
What is the cause of this condition, asking for a friend!!
Man I just need to bring my car in and let you give her the once over. No lights, no codes, but she ain't like she used to be! 😁
My 2011 Audi Q5 3.2 having the same problem. where are you located? Could you please fixing my car I will pay
Did you leave the radiator in
