Does this affect performance?

Hi whats are the part numbers anyone? Thanks

Video is great but some text indicating where you were would be helpful. Some commentary at your stops even better.

How many quarts of atf does it take to fill?

thx great video

hey how's it going I have an e46 with the m52tu28 and my codes for gm vn and sa aren't on my cover for electronics and don't come up through czs when entering my Vin but everything else runs smoothly. when changing up gears the car likes to increase revs (auto to manual swap). without the codes I'm not sure what to do next what can I do from here? bmw e46 328ci 1999 ms42 index

Do you floor it sometimes? I have read that sometimes you need floor it or drive at high RPMs in order to “clean” that gunk.. thanks for the video.

Can't see a thing except a guy standing in front of a car with a wrench...

Its alive!!! Man, youre brave to tackle that job. Great job and keep the videos coming.

Do you remember How many bolts need to be removed from the inspection hole to keep torque converter with tranny ?

Ok 👍👍👍

did the geometry solve the tire rub?

What driveshaft would you need for the getrag?

Thanks for this excellent video !! Did you order a VW Service/Maintenance manual or just download the pages you needed? Thanks !!

I had idle issues, so I took a look at this and it was even worse than yours. I have 110k km which is about 68k miles. I took off entire intake and cleaned it with supermafrasol over night. Now my Touareg runs as new.

I’m doing this exact job right now. Video is helpful. Thanks.

Thankyou for this excellent video, best one out there. Just done this job on an audi A7 and it was incredibly helpful. Some tips from my experience: I had to pre load one of the intake bolts which had a very tight gap when re installing. I think it was the front one. For the egr clamp I used torque of 6nm plus a 90 degree turn to tighten it back up. Also when removing the intake be very careful to remove the tube that connects to the coolant reservoir. You have to disconnect this as it runs over the intake. I tried to lift it over and snapped it off and this delayed my re build. Thanks again!

I've been wondering where my leaks were. Yahtzee!! Great video. I can't wait to see how much build up is in all my intake parts.

Great video, will do this soon too, low throttle stutters a bit. Do you plan to add an oil-catch-can? I read that will reduce the build-up from returning.

Thanks EPA

Where is the differential in relation to the transmission located?

I respect the hell out of you for not shouting every swear word known to man after that one

This exact thing just happened to my 2015 TDI - cold weather - started engine, turned on max heat, heated seats and rear defrost - tonnes of smoke! Great video!

I am impressed

Having the same issue, but I’m not leaking oil, going gallon coolant every 4 months … seems during cold days it leaks

More info on the spal fan controller please 🙏

Great and helpful video my American 🇺🇸 friend , just done mine , “ The Beast “ is back 💪 on the road , no more coolant and oil leak ! Car is much more responsive again! And hell yeah saved hell a lot money doing it for myself! Thanks again Last thought “ I think this was leak was the reason my alternator went last year ( burnt down like yours , another great vid from you about replacing that ) 👊

currently doing the same process, where'd you get your rear wheel bearings from?

Nice vid. I'll use this to tackle mine.

Great video thanks for posting very informative. I had the same thing done at 120,000 miles and now I’m at 180 and it looks like it’s leaking coolant again as well as oil. Does anybody know if there is a permanent fix this issue?

Any difference in brake feel with the larger calipers? Did you notice any performance change in braking?

Can you post a link to the instructions and parts list?

Hello, did you drain the oil and coolant prior to starting the work?

Hi mate! What is your experience after 2 years? Any problem? Still happy with your choice? Thx 👍🏼

For what it's worth, I am just doing a transmission and differential oil change on my Z3 2.8 manual from year 2000 . It is fitted with a Torsen 25% lsd differential. The oil I am using for the differential is Amsoil Synthetic Severe Gear 75W/110 which appears to be the right oil for the Torsen lsd. For the gearbox, I am using Redline D4 ATF which is recommended on the "moment of ZED" youtube channel.

was the issue the oil cooler or just the gasket because you put new one in

Nice 👍 when you assembled everything, was it necessary to connect the car to the computer and remove any errors? I already ordered the parts

It definitely helps to drain the oil. I had a fresh oil change a week before I started this project and when I pulled the oil cooler up the top of the motor filled up with oil. I only had coolant on the top of the engine when I started the project. I just need to buy the parts, and finish the project hopefully in the next week or two. Thank you for posting this video. It’s really helpful.

Some beancounter teamed up with VAG engineers to make servicing so convoluted and complex that it would unnecessarily increase the the labour hours to make more money in their service department.

Hi there, great video for this DIY. I have a 2013 Porsche Cayenne diesel, are all the parts listed are the same with the touareg? I'm thinking getting these parts lists for my Cayenne? Thank you.

Why did you not replace EGR Cooler?

Did you have a lot of oil underneath the engine as well?

EXCELLENT VIDEO GOING TO DO MY AUDI A6 3 LITRE STARTED OIL LEAKING AROUND THE COOLER SO GOING TO CHANGE THE LOT LIKE YOU DID EXCELLENT HELP THIS VIDEO ARE THE PARTS SAME ON MY 2007 A6 AR DIFFERENT WHERE DID YOU BUY THE PARTS AUDI OR INTERNET AS MY CAR IS OLDER SO NEED TO KEEP COST DOWN THANKS AGAIN GREAT

Hi Just done all the above to my 2014. Started and ran fine But after a drive now have a misfire on no2 cylinder code P030200 wondered if I got any contaminants in the rail ???

Great video sir, do you know if these parts would fit a 2013 Cayenne diesel?

Nice press and extraction technique with the all thread. Could you do that with trailing arms only removed? Good video. Thanks

Thanks for the video theres a lot of garbage info from old timers and/or lack of help online and this makes the process look far less daunting.

Thank you! This video is very helpful. Did this issue set off any OBD codes? I have this same issue but prior to discovering it I received a coolant temperature sensor code that kept appearing until I replaced all 3 coolant temp sensors. Less than 5k miles later the same code is back again?! (Yes, after clearing the code each time) Any additional insight is much appreciated.
