How easy repair turned into a nightmare , do we need to remove the engine from this R8 V10 ?

Welcome to another video!

This time we are working on a higher mileage Audi R8 with a V10 engine. Car was brought to us with a few issues like idla at 3000 rpm, misfire , incorrect timing and a few other faults. After I did the diagnostic it looks like it will be easy to fix in one day but after the engine parts broke I knew it won’t be easy and the car will be with us for some time . Enjoy the video

Thanks for watching

YEAH!!! Before watching the video, I see the question in the title. It's an Audi, you drop the motor and rebuild everything! I bet it has 50,000 miles on it and is about to fall apart.

@doctor_who1 says:

why do you multiply V10 mileage by factor 3? coz of the way it was driven or the way the engine is designed?

@johnmchardy4502 says:

These newer audio engines are as crap as the ford eco booms are

@rmorris3722 says:

What I've seen on this channel is a lot of power train out repairs. A fix to that would be to put the cam drive on the other end of the engine.

"Probably some BMW workshop…" haha, shots fired.

Hope ignition is on when doing smoke test

Great fault finding software — almost like Audi knew it would be needed a lot…

I enjoy your videos.. I am learning so much. Saludos desde Kansas!

@manxman8008 says:

Doh! You always need to remove the engine in an Audi, to for example change a light bulb or check the timing.
It was designed by car technician management to maximise the repair bills to customers 😉
Did you know that VW Group make more profit on spare parts than new car sales.

What's with multiplying the kilometers by 3 because it's a V10?

@mrgrimmreaper7922 says:

@aygwm says:

Haha V10 gets multiplied by 3 for mileage. Why?

@rroche0123 says:

Good thinking! Nice Job getting that out! Great Videos, keep them coming….BTW wouldn't own an Audi anymore.

@Racedoc says:

The way this engine looks tells me it was neglected.

@StopTeoriomSpiskowym says:

What a F’kng nightmare to work on.

@HookerJoeFire says:

What a nightmare. Cool to have a big engine in a small car unless you're the guy working on it! That car lacked some under hood inspection and maintenance. Looks like the owner is on right track brining it to you guys.
