You have the best method of making repair videos. You make them in such a way that the viewer feels like they are there with you. The information associated with your videos is top notch. Thanks for your hard work bro.
I used your videos to rebuild my first 2011 a4 Quattro 2.0 engine this summer. Got it back together and now have sluggish shaking engine like this video. Keep it up. Needing more. I’ve never done anything like this before and love it.
I just saw the hood the same time you did in a4 video, dat der is some major orange peel! Great job again, your helping out all of us with VAG cars, and we appreciate you!
Love the videos, I have a 2011 B8 A5 2.0T so all this shit helps but it would be a huge bonus if you put the tools you use in the description, trying to get my own collection
I appreciate your knowledge and information on these types of vehicles it definitely helps I just wish you were alot closer lol I'd drop my car off immediately
What did the spark plug look like when you took it out of cylinder 3? Was it wet? Could be injector stuck open of clogged. Could have a valve stuck open from build up on stem of valves.
~15psi wow I e never seen that dead of a cylinder.. I’m surprised it ran as well as it was? Are the other three showing ~225psi? I’m bet it’s piston , compression rings.. I think if it was valve related then car wouldn’t run due to chain stretch caused interference.. now I did take a head off once to see carbon blocking the intake valve seating which caused low compression but it was still 50psi .. I’m looking fwd to the discovery.. also sounds too well for a broken spring or arm, to me.. but these motors are normally clunky sounding bc of the chain.. great video.. the exhaust solenoids as injectors 😆😆
When the EPC Light came on in my B8.5 Audi A4, it was the battery getting weak. Once the battery was replaced in the trunk floor, the problem went away. 👍😎👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hi. Nice video. I have Q5 2014. I get this glow flash and it slows down when I get this flash Mechanic tried EGR clean, filter clean etc (there is terrible black exaust smoke too ) but nothing helped. I constantly get this glow flash if i drive a bit faster. Plssss suggest what's the solution
I have cylinder disabling in cylinder. 4 but when I try to compression test it the starter make a long whine however on the other it builds and holds 180psi.... thoughts?
I’ve gotten the check engine light twice. Once after fueling and it went away after a week (I bought a new gas cap gasket.) It just came on again after adding a quart of oil. Any idea what could be causing this?
7:09 Regarding disconnecting the fuel pump fuse to check while checking the compression, isn't it still true that if you floor the gas pedal while starting the car it will electronically inhibit the injectors? I was told this feature exists to salvage a flooded engine.
It should on most newer vehicles but not every vehicle is the same, I don’t worry about it anyway but if you want the most accurate readings fuel will wash down the cylinders potentially giving you a slightly less than accurate reading.
Come on bro. you know your day one subscribers will buy the hoodie. I want mine with a smaller logo maybe somewhere on the left chest plate though. “I’ve done this over 100 times” needs to be on it as well. Maybe on the back.
I didn’t know if hats would be more popular.. I don’t care how much I liked a channel, I’m the type of person that wouldn’t want to wear a big logo like that unless it’s for myself so I don’t even really like the idea but my brother made a few of these without me asking.
@@NaptownTuner well your brother knows that at least 10000 people like and appreciate what you do. Personally this info is invaluable. Thank you. Drop the hoodies bro it’s getting cold.
Hey man, so my 2010 Audi A4 random misfires p0300 and p0301 and p0304 can track down why it's doing it. Replaced spark plugs, wires, injectors, carbon cleaned intake valves. Did compression tests on all 4 cylinders and they all read 178, fuel rail pressure is 4,000 and up. Would you have any ideas what else to look into?
Cam solenoids? Had a gnarly misfire on my q7 once that i couldnt track down. Turned out to be a small piece of filter material clogging a cam solenoid. Theyre very easy to get to and clean in most cases. Just remove each one spray it down with some cleaner and make sure it can fully open and close.
You do any service in ft wayne lol 😅. I have an audi getting small amount of coolant in the oil and also small coolant leak on one of the hoses. I'm thinking it could be the oil cooler unit after watching your videos but I'd never try to fix it myself might have to go to the local audi dealer 😢
@@NaptownTuner I just got the car recently its a 2006 a4 Quatro s line with 180k miles and from what I can tell it probly has at one point I see signs of work being done at some point in the past. Engine sounds good car runs fine only reason I noticed the coolant was because a small leak than I checked the whole car better and found coolant splatter inside on the oil cap
My EPC light has come on recently on my A8D4, I rarely have time or chance to get underneath but did so today while going for an oil change. seems the oil cooler unit is leaking?... Im not a mech. but this light comes on for a few days then disappears for months idk
I have the same issue on my Audi right now. I took a look at the valves on cylinder 3-4 and found the right valves are way cleaner than all the others. I changed fuel injectors, cam adjusters,plugs and coils even the water pump trying to track down a misfire I’ve had for a month now. Huge fan also, no problem paying for a shirt
Question, if your low oil pressure comes on periodicly but goes of after i turnoff engine then take keys out about two times in succession then stays off for most of the journey until i stop then restart the car, can this be attributed to hood sensor problem or would you say oil pump. i am using alot more oil than normal
Hey quick question what would you say my problem is if I had the same engine shake,it has trouble starting, and I have smoke from the tail pipe and near the catalytic converter?
I have the same exact problem on a5 ,shake ,problem starting and smoke from the tail .Can you tell what the problem was on yours please.Thanks,Apreciate
I have the same problem on my 2012 Audi A4 check engine an epc light on with a shacking motor the code on it read p302 but I know it’s not the ignition coils or spark plugs because I change them an there no longer then 2000 miles old, i replace the intake manifold change all 4 injector seal kit also a new crankcase vent separator follow with an oil an filter change an the car still won’t work at this point don’t know what’s wrong with it please help 😭😭😭
I have an Audi s5 Quattro v8 it could just be the computer ECU from what I’m told :( I would hate to buy it and it not be it. They changed my high pressure fuel pumps to new ones and the manifolds were kinda repaired not replaced. Still nothing so they took out my ECM sent it to some place called “flagship” and they said it was shorted out so I needed a new one. Still have not repaired it and my baby is just not running properly. I can still drive but it’s getting worse by the day:(
Hello I have a 2.0 2012 Q5 .Check engine light on and sometime when idle the car shakes the engine light flashes and the EPC light comes on. Spark plugs and Coils replaced on all. misfire p0302 coded. Also mass air flow replaced. What else could it be?
@@NaptownTuner i scored a 1.8t a4 for a steal guy said it needs computer so took it home put it together no start first the key was not getting recognized so okay down the rabbit hole got it to crank but faintly still no start new coils new spark plugs check fuel pressure still no start compression test down 1 and 2 around 90-105. 3 and 4 were around 75 to 80 getting ready to tear the head off a d motor out half way through with the cat detached woat one i have ever seen clogged almost completely shut causing false readings and no start lmao gutted the cat car started right up swaped the old computer back in and car ran even better i got a 2004 audi a4 fully loaded for 350 bucks plus 200 for the trailer and i have been an audi tech ever since !
Hey Naptown Tuner! If i make a video on my 2005 2.0 TFSI with a really really weird issue on it (respecting and appreciating what you said in your video about wasting other peoples time) I am trying to fix it for almost a year now and i just don‘t figure it out🤦♂️ Would you even watch it??? Kind of international cooperation 😂 Thanks in advance!
@@NaptownTuner i asked because there are some steps to take for me...i never made a yt vedeo, i have to teach myself how to edit a video and i have to try not to talk too much nonsense while summing up the things i've already tried...in english, which is obviously not my native language
Hmmm wow never seen it this bad this ole boy was burning up oil on the daily they never got the recall done known issue oul rings on the piston go bad doesn’t sound like a bent valve i would get the crank out do rod bearing regardless and hone the cylinders out to get them to match up again no doubt they are off by a bite or just grab yourself a short block dude for 350 bucks a d slap it on there
@@NaptownTuner So Im from NJ.. I have a similar problem in my 2013 Q5... the engine was jerking, my mechanic changed all 4 spark plugs and ignition coils... A few few past and the problem returned, and now I have the check engine light + EPC light on. In addition, the car is linking oil through the exhaust... any suggestions would be truly appreciated it!
