Audi RS6 C5 4.2, V8 Bi- Turbo, the beginning of project 

dropping bars

Agree. Sifting through your own boxes of bolts/clips is bad enough, but someone else's mess... oh shit.

Great video.! I always thought the rs6 c5 was the height of complexity. But now that I’ve seen you guys working on later v8’s with timing chains, I think they’re even tougher to work on. Keep up the good work! Thanks

Good choice with the gearbox

What year?

We wouldn’t remove the engine if we do timing only for costumer , it was out because of the turbo actuator

The RS6 C5 offers zero room to work from. In most cases an engine out and even when replacing the Turbo's is mandatory if you want to do it right.

15 thousand dollar job? If u dont mind me asking

@@eastoakland-S65feen sorry for late reply. Almost $9k.

@@doca8792 thats not too bad. Going to have to do that with mine.. are you in the United states or europe?

@@eastoakland-S65feen Southern California

@@doca8792 dang than that really isnt too bad at all. Im thinking of taking my car to JHM because iv havd work done there before on another car or 034 motosports.. both in norcal. Thankyou

True … I wont tell you guys bull 💩 here

We can’t force costumer 😅 if not was up to us , full rebuild … LOVE the B5 RS ! Such a legend car !

@@VAGTechnic Proberly resold next month as "fully inspected" etc. That gearbox obviously needs work. They snap at approx 80k of miles with that engine. Simply because they cant stand the TQ those engines produce. Launching is very bad for the AT. As for the RS4 B5 - i owned it 3 years. Spend over 30k of mods, upgrades and what more. It has seen the ring 3 times; and it's HP was around 500 with 600nm of TQ. Beast of a station. However MOT failed; exhaust gasses where not in check. We saw small cracks appearing in the heads, the paint started to fade and some more issues. It was cheaper to simply part the car, and sold all the "RS4 B5" exclusive parts to various people all over the globe. I got more for the car in parts then selling it as one unit. Eventually the chassis went on paper to swiss, to someone who wanted to convert his S4 B5 into a RS4 B5 (on paper). All the RS exclusive part where pretty much sold in less then 2 weeks. Got a good 19k out of it; mechanic costed me 2k and i was happy.

Can you remove a cylinder head with engine in the car?

Definitely YES !

You can , but there’s non point really

In UK combustion engines are allowed to buy till 2030 and they should last for another 20 years … but really depends… I would be more than happy for hydrogen cars :) cleanest way of transport

Febi

Every 40.000 miles , owners manual 😇

Costumer car…. Not ours

this one have two turbos,yours have non :)

Miroslav car donate parts for the green S6 and went to scrap . Our daily is 2.0tdi DSG Passat 🥰

They were genuine, so would say 150.000 miles

No they don’t … timing belt should last 75.000 miles , I would say every second time it’s good to replace them . Plastic might fell apart

As said it's the plastic. Once thats gone it's metal chain against metal housing. You dont want that.

Yep, sounds right. The only thing that worries me is that they are expensive as fuck

Regular changes will prevent it from failing

@@VAGTechnic i bought R36 2009 with 180.000 k.M and I don’t now if the previous owner did oil gear change, and now i have glitch when It shift from 5 gear to 6 , can you help me with advice can save the gear i will be grateful brother..❤️🙏🏻

Hi, Vcds should have the option to take it off

@@VAGTechnic Thank you for the tip and keep making videos like this

We done 1 car never again … such a pain

This was very low budgets jobie … there’s much more what need doing after we done this

Totally we spend 30h labour

Yes

Coil Plugs/ packs, glow plugs are on diesel 😅 I had flu so that’s why maybe it sound funny 😂😂😂

@@VAGTechnic ok, so I just heard it wrong😂. Thanks for answering and for these informative and entertaining repair videos👌🏻

They don’t change them … just steering is on the correct side 😂😂😂

Now it’s 4wd and around 450bhp + meth

@@VAGTechnic ahhhh really 😎 always wondered where it went 👌🏼 loved that thing 🥝
