Audi S6 - Lamborghini V10 oil leaks and carbon clean - Part 1

[@TheTateTube]

Thanks for showing, and editing, in such a straightforward and honest way.

[@eco_logic]

mate thank you so much for showing those oil drain holes at the front of the engine at the end of the valley. No I understand where that oil from the front of the engine is coming from.

[@Agostiniem]

Really nice video!! Thanks

[@tefphoenix]

Thank you I probably have the exact same problem with my s6

Broken flaps check for broken flapps in the inake thats a huge huge power killer. I guarantee there broke. Get a new intake.

[@hotdoghero1875]

Aside from the carbon build up and the high chance of the intake braking, how reliable is this car? Looking to buy one as a 2nd fun car. Won't be putting a lot of miles on it

[@Mel1n1]

As I've heard. Aside from the carbonbuildup and intake, what I've heard it's very good quality and reliable. I a lot of S6 V10s here in Sweden where I am that run 250 000km, no problem. Often these problems with intakes etc is fixed by that milage. Also it seems to be a lot more "home-mechanic" fixable compared to RS6 where every small job requires engine-out. But I've never heard any real extreme issues, so I'm also looking to buy one for a daily when I've sold my RS6 C7 because S6 often has engine-heater for winterseason.

No major failing points, but parts are very expensive overall it's still very expensive to maintain if major items haven't been replaced by 120,000 miles (sensors, alternatir, starter, suspension, cv shafts, etc). Once all this is addressed, it's just chasing oil leaks and carbon cleaning. Is important to note, replacing breaks and tired can also be rather expensive. Driving this car as a daily usually wears down tires every year and they were like 1700 dollars for good Michelins on this car.

I see a TE37 Corolla back there.

Hey Mate! Where in NZ are you based?

[@stephenpato5524]

Nice vid bro! Is the 5.0TT any better with carbon build up? I'm tempted by a C6 RS6

[@RICHIE_RICH89]

Ill buy it wheres it at

[@glovercarvalho]

The RS6 doesn't suffer from carbon build up at all.

[@thepeginator2556]

Because it’s TFSI (5.2 is FSI) and the fuel goes into the intake, not the cylinder, they don’t suffer like the FSI engines do.

[@RICHIE_RICH89]

Its the oil sylenoid sensors that the oring takes a shit.

Excellent video👍 any chance you have a contact in the UK who can help with a much needed mechanic on my S6 v10 avant🤞

[@broskis80]

There is plenty but none will work for fuck all as commonly english customer want to pay. Maybe that why you struggle to find 1.😜

[@TerryPhilpott-ms9ql]

I noticed you said it is a wannabe Lamborghini engine, and it is actually an upgrade from that engine which was a five litre

[@StudioGoldsmith]

What happened to this thing? Did you get the leaks sorted? I have the same car myself and it's SPRAYING oil and coolant from under it's belly. :D Will be going to the shop in spring, it's pretty low miles at 70k

[@dustinphillips3855]

Yea I did get it sorted. Camera just died and corrupted the last video of finishing it off. Flaps have started rattling in the intake now so will be coming off again soon. Coolant is a concern but there's plenty of plastic fittings to leak being an Audi

[@jamest5149]

KZbin / internet always complains these are impossible to work on… yes, not easy but there harder cars like V8 range rovers, many 12 Mercedes etc. everyone seems oblivious to the ease the front swings out the way in ‘service mode’

[@RICHIE_RICH89]

Can u do mine plz

[@rolandrado2914]

Jesus i avae a same engine i cant imagine how much u cost him🤔🤔
