Should be a rule every where

I had it apart already when I stripped it, so when I had to replace it in this video, everything had only been bolted up for a day or so. Not enough time to seize up or rust If you see the first video to this, the Axle was so stuck it almost broke the specialty tool

@@Mechani_Colei just watched your last vid my mouth dropped when i saw how easy you got the new axle into the hub wtf 😭😭😭 but that's like same as me, i replaced the axel, then after realized i needed a new knuckle. for first time the axel came out quite easily actually with an air hammer, but took a whille of tapping around the back to get the new in !!! so to replace the knuckle i was going to disconnect it at the diff again to do the same process cause i thought i needed the knuckle held in place by the arms to be able to get it in or out .. this gkn axle is a tight fit i could try but i dont think theres any way im getting it in or out by hand

Did you reset the code with a scanner?

6mm. It shows the size right before taking the bolts out

They all come pre-gapped. This isn't the 80's anymore🫡

I would just drain 2-3 quarts and put new fluid in. Or if no issues, just leave it alone

Yeah, sometimes it be like that. Take a break, eat some food, and try again🫡

Yes. Otherwise the engine won't be able to rotate

@Mechani_Cole Thanks man big help

Sounds about right ✅️

Yes, you will just have a few small differences. But overall it's the same process

Lots of maintenance, but beautiful cars for sure

Cherry picker is 100× more useful. Find one on marketplace or offerup for cheap

This is the way for sure🫡

It's really that easy🫡

Slightly different, but it looks similar if I remember right

108,000 miles when I did this service if I remember right

That's what I thought. I called the local dealer here. Gave them the Vin and was told it doesn't exist by the idiot on the phone lol

Check fuses or bulbs first if both aren't working. Will need to do a reset after the repair to get it out of Limp Mode

@diabl0_107 best to have a full set if working on these cars. Here is an affordable set - amzn.to/3V9FiR6

I used what I had so it was free

@Mechani_Cole Great I was just letting others know of another option.

😅 half a quart over or under doesn't make a bit of difference....

You are mistakened I guess you've never heard of a foamy crankcase lmao especially on vw and audi cars but I shouldn't be teaching you this stuff I mean you are a "mechanic"😂

Did you order through the link? And yeah, it's why they lost 2 world wars lol

@@Mechani_ColeI did order the kit through the link, the tool fits onto the new vvt solenoid I bought, but for some reason won’t fit onto the one thats in the car. Any other unethical ways to remove it?

@obxev did you try all the different attachments

@@Mechani_Cole yep, seems like they are slightly not wide enough to fit the one in my car

All direct injection engines have this issue

@@Mechani_Cole sorry for being sarcastic but yeah.. this explains my question 🙄

I'd guess about 3 hours max

Good question! Double check for bad fuses or loose pins. Can check the pins with a small tack or something to see if they are grabbing

@@Mechani_Cole ok. let me get back with you. man we just had a tornado in Houston texas, I don't have lights and my phone is about to die. I get back thank you dude.

Can use either to loosen them. I just prefer power tools. You can reuse the fuel line bolts

That's a smart decision, even though I love Audi, I feel like a glutton for punishment everytime I touch one. Even better, get a Lexus!

You can either loosen the trans lines or the best way is to use an extension, maybe even a swivel attachment for the right angle @corbinaycock1918
