DIAGNOSING MY CHEAP AUDI RS6'S ENGINE ISSUE *IN DEPTH*

AND DONT FORGET TO USE PROMO CODE "SALVAGE10" TO SAVE WHEN YOU BUY!!!

In today's video we start diagnosing the engine issue on my cheap Audi RS6. I go into a fair bit of depth so hope its okay!

[DunSlapMeh]

In depth and explaining thought process behind issues is good, as well as testing etc. Too often people keep throwing parts without confirming what the issue is cause they do not understand how the system works

when testing one way valves always blow from both sides NEVER suck. great vid 👍

I really enjoyed the indepth diagnosis of the system it helps me out to understand it better as currently studying lvl 3 light vehicle maintenance and recently we were studying how to diagnose a problem. These types of videos really help me out to understand how most of the engine systems work out.

Loved the explanation before hand, means all the checks you did made so much sense in a quite complex system.

[jackmillin]

Brilliant content Dean! Most interesting channel going, love the diagnosis process. 😎

You certainly did your homework, it’s was very interesting and I’m glad for you that you found those failures, fingers crossed it’ll be the solution to the problem, I’m sure any V10 owners watching will appreciate your work too, 🤞 good luck.

Wow. This is the reason why we watch your channel. Modern cars are a nightmare, however your methodical and logical diagnosis, helps us understand how even mortals like me can begin to fix our own cars! I personally love the indepth content, whether that's 10 minutes or an hour, I'm hooked ! 👍👍

Dean, thanks for the detailed explanations here. One of the best car videos on youtube. Really like your channel mate.

Definitely enjoyed the in depth detailed explanations Dean. The PCV valve on my A4 B7 2.0 TFSI was knackered. It was actually hissing when the engine was running. I could only hear it though with the bonnet open and my ear not far from the valve. Hissing continued for a short time after tuning off the engine until the pressure reduced. Got a new genuine VAG part. No hissing now. Also noticing the clutch judder has pretty much gone now so I suspect there was excessive pressure in the crankcase causing oil to seep out of the rear main seal. Since then had some throttle body related errors but took it for a bloody good thrashing on a several hundred mile journey a couple of weeks ago and so far the errors haven't re-occurred. Research pointed towards the throttle body re-alignment/re-adjustment process but I don't have VAG-COM or any other suitably advanced programming tool. See how it goes. Really enjoy all your videos. Do keep them going.

Love these fault finding/explanation videos 👍🏻👍🏻

After seeing this I love my naturally aspirated straight six bmw, too complicated for this guy. Kudos for you for diagnosing this plumbing nightmare

[tristanpage]

Love the in depth content. Great video. Hope that damage was a bit of plastic fatigue and not a bit of turbo. Look forward to the next

[andreholland]

Great video. Love the indepth explanation and demo of the valves. 100%

[sparkplug]

Did not know the RS6 had a dry sump, that race tech right there, very nice.

[daveray-no]

I explored a lot about pcv system when having vacuum issues with Audi A4. Great in depth explanation, hope that it’s only the valves and hoses that are the issue, that would be a result. Enjoyed the video as always. Keep up the great work.

[muffindell]

Grand job, you seem happier today now that you have a reasonable prognosis, good explanation of the system, hopefully this will be the fix you're looking for.

[Nelson]

Nice bit of diagnostics hope all good and solves the problem surely looks like it will. Fingers crossed for you

[brianthetrain]

Nice to here your educated theory behind your oil problem. Yes in depth is the way to go .👍

[JamieKunka]

Great video! Don't forget to check the rubber diaphragm in the actual PC valve. My tsi engine had one perished and caused a simmilar oily pipe problem.

[kevinhannaford]

Another good video, these are the ones that are the best, problem, fault diagnosis, fix and test, informative interesting and helpful.
Keep doing the same and leave the draggie times to the others, looking forward to the next video.
