[@selecta_ssbm]

Here in Tyler's garaaage, just fixing this uh saucy b7 here. Fun to drive up here in the San Marcos Hills

[@gstevens6948]

Absolutely gorgeous B7 A4, we have one as well, but not in “that” nice of shape. Take good care of her, I’m sure you do, it shows.

[@SaucyB7]

Appreciate it bro!!! 🙏 I've got more fun with this car to share soon🤙

[@dylanh8132]

[@SaucyB7]

Thanks for tuning in! Been meaning to put out another video but I was sick all week last week! Will be posting once a week once I'm better!

[@carlossaavedra1973]

Great video a4 b7 s-line owner here as well! Some color as yours ! The other hard work you'll encounter is the rear coolant flange thats a headache !

[@SaucyB7]

Luckily before I got into posting on YT I had a shop replace mine haha fingers crossed I won’t have to touch it againn

[@connorleyland8695]

Had the same problem on my b7 avant, oil dripped on the turbo from the valve cover and eventually lead to a blown turbo! Oh well guess its my turn for a k04 😂

[@wallacemarshall]

Very nice!

[@JoseMartinez-er8vh]

Yeeeewww

The Coil Clips suck.. I just replaced all of mine with OEM because the originals were so brittle they snapped ifI looked in their direction. The clips will now be something I change annually.

[@SaucyB7]

Where did you order replacements from? I'd absolutely love to get them swapped out. I get irritated just looking at em 😂

[@luisroman9459]

Where you get the trunk spoiler & rear window viser

[@SaucyB7]

Spoilerking.net you'll see my car as the demo car or my old grey one with the same spoilers 🤙

Hey man after going ko4 did u still pass smog? I’m asking because I want to get a ko4 for mine

[@SaucyB7]

“Yes” is my online answer. Find a smog shop thats really good at doing smogs 😂

[@Rottie_713]

Why did u replace breather tube?

[@SaucyB7]

At the time the mechanism inside was stuck open resulting in oil from the PCV system going into the turbo. This is one of the ways oil builds up in your intercooler

[@Rottie_713]

@Saucyb7 Media hmm i changed the valve cover on my b7 because of that issue i will blow smoke randomly driving im wondering if this was a similar issue

[@SaucyB7]

@@Rottie_713 it’s a great thing to replace, if you haven’t already replace the pcv valve as well. The pcv system is super weird but it’s a great place to start! If it continues to blow smoke after that, do a compression test and check your turbo hot side for and cracks or damage. Could be turbo as well

[@Rottie_713]

@Saucyb7 Media yep replaced valve cover and pcv together. Hopefully it does the trick but now that i know this i will order the tube as well thanks for you're time buddy

[@SaucyB7]

@@Rottie_713 no problem! I believe there are 2 different versions for late model b7 and early. Double check to sure it’s the correct one before you order

[@connorleyland8695]

Im looking at getting a billet valve cover for my B7 sedan, they look so slick. Surprisingly not expensive either

[@SaucyB7]

Bummer on the blown turbo but you’ll enjoy the k04! Make sure with that cover you can still connect the PCV system, deleting it gives a lot of people issues unless you’re running a catch can

You cute.
