FIRST REAL START of the A6 Avant! NO FIRE this time.

After the injector leak and fire last time I get the injectors checked out, radiator and front end internals back together, new engine and transmission mounts and the exhaust back on. Then it's time for the first real start!

Congrats, that's definitely progress! I wish I had seen these videos earlier as I'm a big 12v fan and could have tossed in some tips along the way. I've also got a spare ignition coil pack if your glue repair doesn't hold up. I hope it's on the road by now?

So you didn't change the timing belt or the valley pan gasket. How old is the timing belt? Or how many miles?

If you're planning on changing the timing belt on these, it's probably the easiest V6 timing belt job there is. You literally don't need any special tools. Just pull the crankshaft pulley off instead of taking off the crankshaft pulley bolt. Just be careful not to strip out the hex bolts.You don't even need cam holding tools as long as you mark the position and don't move them.
Be sure to slap in a new Audi thermostat and belt tensioner and pulley, and do a quick pressure test to make sure the heater hoses under the cowl aren't leaking.

Probably the previous owner saw some coolant needing replacing and decided it was the head gasket without doing any actual tests.
