Definitely needed this! The cool guy at the local Auto Zone pulled up your video for me to use as a reference. Five of the six cylinders were showing misfires on the diagnostic. Thanks so much for this video! Hopefully, I'll have "Pegasus" rollin' smooth again by Monday!

Best Video Ever for Q7... the crystal clear video... demonstrating how to manipulate the damn tab clips... JUST that alone... made me KNOW...THIS YOUNG MAN is giving a thorough comprehensive presentation. Praise you sir! I am grateful to thank you... AND to recommend to any DIY... that I've done ALL repairs on my 2008 3.6 Q7... mostly Thx to KZbin: and... on this issue... No Ka Oi! Hawaiian literal meaning (I think/hope this is the correct translation:) No Ka Oi = None Is Better. Outstanding Video🙏👍🏻

Very useful, great job..

[@davidleitch3199]

If I decide to pressure wash my VW VR6 engine I will clean the area around the spark plug wells by hand with an all purpose cleaner then cover and seal off the area. Kind of surprised the water in the well did not evaporate from the engine heat. Great video, it is worth it to buys the tools and do this your self well done. I hope you used a little anti-seize on those spark plug threads.

Thanks just did mine. #quarantine

Thanks for posting this video. Do you know? Do you have to calibrate it After you replace the coils or you can just replace the coils

[@carloszamudio244]

Hi do u have videos replacing. The injectors

[@Sveinbjornfinnsson]

Hi, you have 3 tools missing in your demo. torque wrench , gauge for spark plug and special tool to remove the connector plug. First of all you can buy a special tool to remove the connector plug on Amazon as you did with your special tool for the coil, with that it is no problem to remove the connector plug. Second, it is a common procedure to check the plug ignition end with the correct gauge to see if it has bended in the package. And third, you always torque the sparking plugs when installing !!! You can see the correct gauge and torque on the sparking plug packed. Sorry for this correction but it is super important that you torque the spark plugs correct , I think it is 17 inch-pounds for this engine with is basically hand tight ;-) kind regards Sveinbjorn

[@scapion150]

What’s spark plug torque spec?

[@JuanHernandez-fo2fd]

Whats the size of the spark plug socket?

[@User-HrwQpm3729]

Thanks for the great video. How are the ignition coils performing? Read some negative reviews about longevity but not sure if they were installed on the q7. Just wondering...

[@doylelewis3418]

Awesome

[@robertwhite9442]

Whats the spark plug order

[@jetmotojune1646]

I think it’s the best design. It’s like a hdmi cables to me.

[@rooomyyyyy]

Hi thanks for the video really helpful just one question though did you disconnect the battery before all this ?

[@JoeriksGarage]

rooomyyyyy I did not find it necessary but it is usually recommend The audi battery is located under the driver seat. Thanks for watching.

[@rooomyyyyy]

Joerik's Garage thanks joe for the prompt reply most famous you tubers don’t even reply I really appreciate that I was trying to change it too but every where it’s said to disconnect the battery and it’s too much work to disconnect battery in Audi Q7, all the best for your channel

Tourqe spec I read is 28nm ~20 lb per foot

Sorry I don’t recall.

[@quantcook]

what's the name of the can opener like tool? where did you buy it? advance auto doesn't have one in store.

[@JoeriksGarage]

KIMBOL ZHANG sorry for the delay response, it’s a paint can opener you can get for free at most hardware stores.

[@quantcook]

@@JoeriksGarage i get one from homedepot, but the can opener is too big to put in, there's a different kind of can opener i think. tried to use a plyer to make it small, but too hard.

[@JoeriksGarage]

Genau so macht man die Zündspulen Stecker defekt. Bevor man die Verriegelungs Lasche betätigt, muss der Stecker eingedrückt werden, um die Verriegelung zu entspannen, sonst wird die Verriegelungs Lasche nicht frei. Stecker fest eindrücken, festhalten und Verriegelungs Lasche betätigen,

I paused the video thinking there were cops outside

Aaron Anderson haha, what part? Don’t remember or maybe I just don’t hear them anymore since I live close to a hospital.
