TRYING TO FIX 3 ABANDONED CARS..... BY ME!! WHAT DO I DO??

In today's video I update you all on what's going on with these long term projects, the TVR Cerebra, the Audi RS6 and the Nissan GTR, also updates on the Hurracan and Skoda VRS3 too! I need your help on what to do...

[raeezpather]

Get a new engine for the RS6. Sell the current one to recoup some of the money spent on the new engine

[ΒασίλειοςΠαπασταύρου]

RS6 oil pump can be refurbished now with all the one way valves replaced and all gaskets as well. Only if there is too much wear on the metal parts will there be a need for another pump. Pump is accessible without an engine drop, so it is worth a dismantle and a look. If you need part numbers and a chap that makes the gasket drop a message. These are known in the FB groups.

A salvage engine may well have other issues so I wouldn't trust getting one just yet

[MirceaD]

Take the oil pump to a specialized shop and have it rebuild or modify.

Have you asked "Salvage Rebuilds UK" if they want to do a bit of a collab where Chris puts your GTR on their rig? They may be nice to work with for you as to doing transports for them once in a while?

[sleepysamk]

Dean hitting the big time. He has a camera man 😁😁😁

[PaddyBoy]

That TVR was what brought me to your channel, I’m still here enjoying your content. Can’t wait to see you get back into the project!
Cheers Pat🇦🇺

2 years since the TVR....feels like last week 😮
Can you not do a collaboration with @Salvage rebuilds...they have a jig

[utilitarian]

I don’t often comment, but imo the RS6 should be broken down for parts.

It might not make as much as it could but a new engine is asking for trouble. Plus we see you rebuilding cars - this could be a different angle by stripping one and could make a couple of videos worth of content to post if/when you don’t have time or content ready.

[davidevans]

I've been watching you now for a year or two and I like what you do mate! I'm glad to see that you're going the same way as matt Armstrong because your great at what you do. I really hope that it works out for you mate

[LeakSprungGarage]

Two years since the TVR! Wow that's how I found your channel so very excited to see it again. Especially good to see your carrying on even though all these humdrum cars are about like the Lambo 🤣. Started rebuilding my Tuscan aswell, one of the biggest things I've noticed are how brilliant the community is for help and assistance.

[Taylorjay]

The financially sensible side of me is saying to part out the RS6 or stick a new engine in it... But the other side of my brain is saying if it's done 200k already, why not stick another oil pump on it and see how many miles you can really get out of that V10 haha!

[ewanbent]

Great update. I couldn't work like that though - having cars hanging around part finished. It would drive me mad. Get all those cars outside finished and turn them into £££

[shadowskulz]

Really looking forward to seeing the TVR restored, A lot of childhood memories for me as my father worked in the factory for over 25+years

[olukunle]

The RS6 and a new engine, I'd really love to see how to work on that car and manage it's unreliability on a DIY ownership

[gavinallan]

Throwing good money after bad with the RS6, it's a relic that's been to the moon and back. Bite the bullet and break it...

[davebentley]

Dean mate! You CANNOT scrap the RS6!!!! Please 🙏
That’s becoming a rare car! New engine, double ticket price and I’ll buy loads! I’m sure others would too 😊

[jimogden]

Dean, give Tavarish a call about the RS6. He loves a massive challenge and the mileage is nothing for the States!! Doing great work fella. Good luck. You deserve it.

[taylordudley]

The TVR was why i started watching your channel, so about bloody time its started again hah

[joseffencl]

The state of the rs6 makes me sad, since i started watching your videos when you bought this one. Hope it gets repaired and will be driven again :) VAG technic just started a project turning an rs6 with broken engine into a 1009 hp rs6.

[samjackaman]

Dean, have you tried VAG Technic YouTube Channel on the RS6?? You could try a collaboration with them on the oil issue / obtaining oil pump. They are repairing these Audi RS V6/V8/V10’s all the time… can’t wait on the TVR build!!
