Audi S4 B8 3.0T - Thermostat Replacement

[@bbiancini]

I followed your video and replaced the thermostat and water pump on a C7 A6. Thank you kindly for the easy-to-follow video. As a hobbyist, it took 16 hours as I got stuck on a few of the technical parts. Well worth the experience and extremely satisfying.

Had my thermostat go out yesterday. After watching this - paying the mechanic was the smartest thing I could do. Thanks for the great video!

[@pisby1]

I just came to this same conclusion

[@TeeJayTheRippa]

Yea it’s not a fun job I can tell ya that, I feel like this gentleman has done it a few times and the only thing I could add is throwing some tape around that triple square to keep your wrench where you’d like it when removing that pulley, other than that I learned how to do it from this video!

[@Nitrousbird]

I just did this job on my wife's B8.5 S4. A few notes: on the B8.5, the water pump pulley bolts are a different size (bigger). Belt routing is different due to it having electric steering. This video totally ignores the driver side crossover pipe bolts, which are a real bear, though you only need to take one-off. Also, they didn't do the water pump - a big mistake in me following this video regarding that. Even though mine didn't look like it was leaking, the system wouldn't hold pressure when vacuum was hooked up. Ended up being a bad pump; cost me an extra $40 because I picked it up locally (B8.5 also uses a different pump with a vacuum hose on it, so B8 pumps won't work on it). Also cost me a few extra hours of frustration. You should also replace the intake gaskets as well when doing this job; $15 and 5 minutes. The vacuum line labeling was unnecessary. A simple close-up picture was all I really needed and I didn't even look at my labels. The breaker bar in the video for removing the belts is a must, especially for the supercharger as the clearance is super tight - any normal socket/breaker bar setup would be too wide to clear the fan housing. The air ratchet in the video is totally unnecessary and would have been harder to do IMO.

As I study the Audi cars Audi should get a reward for the most work needed done on a car in such little time or mileage

One of the best "How To" video's I have seen. Expert finesse and mechanic skills.

[@topenddean]

Working on late model cars is so much nicer than working on 50-60 year old cars that have been neglected for decades. But, the old cars once brought back are SO much easier and more direct when it comes to any repairs. These late model cars are engineered like crap. All the plastic and rubber components will em brittle and create a never ending cycle of failure after failure. Replacement parts will have to be cobbled together as OEM plastic and rubber pieces will be non existent. Pure junk.

Nice video! Looks like removing the front bumper and sliding radiator out would make this process much easier

[@FelekPL]

@Bob Saget on A4/S4 it's actually pretty easy to slide front out, you just need 2 longer bolts. He would probably save time

[@wes8398]

@Bob Saget by "sliding the radiator out", I think he meant pulling it forward... otherwise known as Service Position.

[@ns8013]

@Bob Saget Sliding the radiator out is exactly what service position is, and when you know what you're doing, it takes like 10-20 minutes tops.

[@joevarga5982]

@@FelekPL You have to drain the coolant to do this and disconnect both radiator hoses because there's not enough slack in the hoses to "just slide it forward".

[@davidbobo5517]

impressed that you did this without puting the front in service position

[@steamboat75043]

Excellent video - the few 'how to' I create are just title cards, no narration, and a bit of musical jokes from the foxtrot orchestra I play in. Title cards like your on screen notes show what to done and then pictures show the steps. I can hardly stress enough the pleasure of going through this video instead of unorganized, iffy photography, and needless commentary. What I have learned from this is that the design is not created for 'ease of maintenance' and despite the really complex car repairs I have done - hard pass on this one. But it as a great source of information for those who have this issue to understand all the steps and why it costs so much when on most cars, the thermostat replacement is easy enough that the beginner can do it and gain confidence to go on to the next repair. Many thanks.

Great Job Derek! I just wonder why not put the car in service position...I always do just to work in comfort and have visibility, even the Q7 I put in service position I dont like working blind to be honest. I think Audi service position is one of the best things Audi engineers did. For bigger jobs I just get rid of the whole front end.

[@williamh.8590]

Great video! I've got a 2016 A7 and after changing the water pump and thermostat, I need to know how to set the flaps that everyone talks about. I put the supercharger back on and everything works except the car has no kick and the check engine light comes on. Everything I have read says it is the intake manifold flaps.

[@williamh.8590]

Update, I didn't make sure the flaps were one side of the divider when reinstalling the rail.

[@ijdad99]

I had a 3.2 (similar down there) and didn't do that right, even though I lined it all up. The issue is that it sits high on the gaskets and tightening the screws pushes flap to wrong side. . The flaps can be manipulated on the outside of the engine where the device that moves it is. Hard to describe. But move the arm a bit and push down on the lower intake to set it in place and tighten screws while holding down. Check by moving the flaps. It throws a code if you mess up and do it wrong.

[@359alex]

I was wondering if it's the same procedure to remove just a water pump my water pump started leaking and making noise. Unfortunately I can't find any videos on replacing the water pump. I hope I don't have to remove everything you did? Great video keep up the amazing work

[@DerekHunziker]

359alex Yes, the procedure is more or less the same. Most of the DIY write ups in my notes (see description) explain the water pump removal. I believe you must go a bit further to get it off.

[@zenden6564]

Hi Derek Thankyou for a really champion instructional video. Spot on. It certainly dispels any illusions about it being an easy job. But approached methodically with your cool calm style, labelling etc., and with those two special tools then it looks doable. My dumb question is: so why do you need to take the water pump pulley off to replace only the thermostat which is sitting on top of the block? Is it that normally you'd replace both pump and T.stat together right? Also with GDI inlet port coking, in your experience what mileages are you seeing with the 3T engines before it becomes a maintenance problem? Thankyou again Derek.

[@Pwnulolumad]

5 years later I have the same question . currently have front bumper and supercharger off to do other maintenance and wanted to change thermostat only since i had waterpump done by a shop some time back.

[@dalton8082]

[@toddn.3123]

[@robertdaone]

Great informative video but I notice Audis require way more work to do simple maintenance compared to other manufacturers. There are way more things that you have to remove to get to parts that are more easily accessible on most other vehicles.

[@joevarga5982]

They seem to do this deliberately so that owners will take their car to the dealer. A simple drive belt replacement which should take 10 minutes takes all day in my S4, and that's if you already know how to do it. If you don't - 2 days. You need to disassemble the front of the car, drain the coolant, disconnect the radiator hoses and pull the radiator frame forward about 3". It's called "service position". All so that you can get your hand down there to get at it. It's insane. Getting at the A/C compressor is even worse. Working on many things requires an engine pull.

[@JoeyS5]

Great video man!! But can u make a video on how to get the air out the coolant system after using purge/refill tool. 🙏🏽 i know it’s defrost on, open SC bleeder screws and loosen the inlet heater core hose until coolant shoots out. But there’s no videos of this o/l!!

A helpful tutorial, I like it. But I need to buy a lot of tools if I own a such Audi S4 when I need to replace something.

what is the purpose of removing 2 screws @ 22:50 and 24:30?...then the frame jumps to 24:50 of removing 6 screws for thermostat.

[@DerekHunziker]

Hi Ken, the top of the T-Stat is connected to the front coolant pipe. At 22:50 and 24:30, I am removing the left most sets of screws on the front coolant pipe, leaving the right ones still connected. This allows you to pull the front coolant pipe back far enough to disconnect the T-Stat (see 25:35). The front coolant pipe is the hardest part of this job.

[@EverGone03]

thank you for the reply Derek, appreciate it. another question, is it necessary to use the the air gun to remove that bolt? because i do not have air tool.

Thank you.

[@DerekHunziker]

Erick Bren don’t force it. Somethings wrong as I could use one finger on that tensioner. Make sure you are turning clockwise and belt is loosening before applying pressure. Belt should give just enough to pry over the lip of the pulley.

I ordered same vacuum machine after watching the video, I installed bigger heat exchanger on B8.5 S4 , and cant get the air out, I hope this will do the job. Thanks

[@acejam2k]

Did using the vacuum tool end up working for you? I'm in the same position - larger heat exchanger, and think I might have air stuck somewhere, even after manually bleeding. Did you bleed the system with some coolant still in the engine?

Brought it in a few local mechanic shop but they replace the compressor, climate control, pressure switch, every shop they inspect it and they recharge the ac gas which is everytime cost 153-187 us dollar for just recharge a gas to check for the compressor kick on, not include check leaks. They keeping giving a bills of doing things. I just got them replace the compressor, cost $1386 include recharge but it still not working. They end up telling me to drop the car and pay for at least 4 hours more to dive into but they are not warranty and could cost more hour to do, they will lmk when 4 hours up. But they couldnt find any problem.

[@DerekHunziker]

Patrick Hickey - google how to put the front into “service mode”, it’ll give you a few extra inches of workspace. Change all gaskets, hoses, t-stat, maybe even water pump. Best to replace as much as possible while the supercharger is off.

Best video ive seen on a 3.0t. Do u have to change the super charger gasket eveytime u disassemble the supercharger? Or if they r only 6 months old, u can use them again?

official procedure always says replace, but you can get away with it if they're 6 months old like you said. If you have removed enough to see the orange gaskets 100% replace them because that's already lots of personal hours or thousands of dollars if you're seeing those. injector seal kits are cheap, the little metal bracket they have is supposed to be one time use if it pops out ever.
