Independent thinking isn't the same as committing copyright infringment.

I wanna say youre wrong cause i love VW but i swear every single one i work on is ticking or knocking or whimpering in pain🤣

It’s important not let Audi drivers forget they are VW owners.

That's crazy! I definitely DIDN'T put an Audi K04 on a stock mk.4 golf and have been pulling ridiculous amounts of boost on a stock block

Too much lift combined with to much rocker ratio without enough seat space causing the valves to both bottom out on the springs and pushed the end around put to much force on the fulcrum point which was the end of the valve guide. OR The clearance on the valve guides was to small and the valve stems were expanding into the guides, not as fun of an explanation but most likely the culprit.

Rush Limbaugh ; it isnt arrogance if you can 'deliver'

My coworker had a gti with a misfire issue. Turns out the head was shot, cylinder 1 had failed the compression test miserably. So what does he do? Trade it in for a new gti...

True straight facts for the addict

Why there's 5 valves per cylinder?

bad as a Gillette razor.... 20 blades and 20 valves...

Cool bonus footage, one generation to the next

Thats a crackhead for ya!😂

I am not sure that they destroy their vehicles. The ones that know better change the fluids a little bit more frequently and other things. Look how many 4th generation Jettas are still out there. Some of those are TDis and can last a really long time!

Sorry 2 minutes I'm done

Uuummmm.....No....Every VW & Audi is destroying it's owner's wallet.....

Obviously you're joking, because you belong in jail if your this were literal

Been a machinist a lot of years, around 20, shit is so screwed in american manufacturing now and I don't even feel like I'm getting paid even close to enough. its no wonder why nobody wants to do it.

The only bright side is that we have the VR6 thanks to Volkswagen!

Me laughing, knowing ima sand my heads flat 😂

Imagine putting a lot of unnecessary valves in an engine like three extra valves when you could have just put in a supercharger😮

What car is this engine from ?

2012 Golf TDI driver here. After putting $4k into this thing, we got paid nearly 5k to keep it after hail damage. Currently has an issue with the Immobilizer that means I have to attempt multiple times to start it before it will run. It’s an easy dealer code rewrite, but I don’t have the time for that… guess I’ll just replace the starter when it goes bad😋

Sure they come with the warning lights lit up like a Christmas tree. But damn they are pretty hard to actually kill. Funny thing, as a former VW tech the ones that ran the best were always owned by some kid that beat the car like an unwanted stepchild. The customers that babied their cars always came in running like dog poo. 🤷‍♂️

What really happened: "Hey, is grinding away 80 thou going to ruin the head?" "Yeah it is. If you want the head to function as intended, you can't grind away from its spec. Otherwise we can't grant you warranty on reliability issues that you'll have." OP: "I feel very powerful right now because I'm a free thinker."

Ufff alot cracked just check on last clips 😂😂😂

Can anyone offer me some advice. I have a Kohler 17 engine on my riding lawnmower that has a head similar to this one. The valve basically just stops working so I pull the head and take the valve out and clean it along with all the extreme black on the top of the cylinder head and it will work for the summer but upon the next season startup ...back to not working. A buddy of mine said to get non ethanol gas. Any input would be appreciated.

Meanwhile my 2008 vw passat 2.0 tsi still chugging along at 185000 miles Uses no oil on the original engine and transmission.

I had a '00 Audi TT with the 5V 1.8. It was very reliable. I did make sure to change the oil, timing belt and tensioner, and anything else it needed more often than recommended. I did go through and preemptively go through and change out all the plastic cooling system bits to make sure I wouldn't have any trouble long term. It had 260k on it before I got rear-ended and the insurance company wrote it off...the body shop said the damage was too bad to fix.

What you didn't want to hear? Like intruding into the water jackets or intake and exhaust ports? And if you've cut the walls thin enough you might experience the joy of dropping a valve at 7,000 RPM.

Don't'.. Do that! Okay..I Will'. Why Not? BECAUSE STUPID' They Are Not'! Designed' or Engineered >->for That Much Pressure at that Weak Point'! Dumb ASS'... Gee' I Wonder'.. Whut Could' Ever'..Happen'! Ohhh ..it'll Be fine' 😮😢Ohhh'Noo' Whut' HAppeNed'? AwwW'... Are Yu' okay'? You Are'..😮OHhh'... O'Kay'..😢'...>->😅😂>>😊'

Soooo what were the results? Did it work? Did it crack? I don't really care about LS engines but I'd like to know what happened.

Hi Dad.

Double pits to chesty

Diesel conversion complete

burnelling on the neck?

Soooo the old saying goes, and this really applies to those older 20v, 2.slo, vr. “Take the whole car apart, reassemble it, and THEN you have a VW that works right.”

Shud up ego

LOOKS great carry on !

Overheating means less carbon though!

I've beat the shit out of mine for at least a million miles between 5 vehicles and the only time I ever had a problem was running vr1 50w to break in a new turbo when the temp dropped to -18° outside on a 4 hour drive (forecast said the low for the next 3 days was above 20°) doing 75 with the cruise control set and the oil got to thick which caused cavitation and threw a rod through the block. But all the yuppies ignore the check engine light for months on end so I suppose you're like %90 right lol

No valve job ?

i4 20 valves ? What engine is it ? Black top 4A-ge ?

How the hell do those valves work

What if they used a copper head gasket?

In Brazil VW released one of the most advanced 1 liter engines, in early 2000's, and on the user manual they said that oil changes should be done every 20.000 kilometers. Well, I guess everyone knows what happened...

Never would have considered that the porting leaving a partial half moon removed could have weakened the hold on the guided enough that over time it could lead to the guide rocking and wallowing out the hole it’s installed in. The small intricate effects that alterations can have on components in the long term is always intriguing. It never ceases to amaze how small changes can have such noticeable impacts when you’re dealing with repetitive motion over a prolonged timeframe.

Got a little more compression The car might have a tad more power

Nice repair and head work! Are you planning on running manganese bronze guides? other than that heat transfer to that mounting post, would be nice to see the remedy for the inside port.

Gotta talk to them in person so no recording....gotta cya as a business ya know!..lol

Brinelling? How? On a head surface? By your machine?
