Buying Salvage Yard AUDI Parts To Fix My CHEAP Bentley

I bought a 2006 Bentley Continental Flying Spur, the 4 door super luxury version of the Continental GT. It came out of Florida, it was only $12,000, and all it needed was keys or the immobilizer replaced with one from a Cayenne... it turns out the keys work perfectly but there are missing parts, including the relay that turns on the ECU. Luckily that relay is the fuel pump relay from many VWs and Audis so I ordered one, and it didn’t work at all. Today we’re getting that relay replaced at any cost, the car might start after that!!

I'm just glad that the Bentley isn't complicated, because that would suck if it was.

[@phenomanII]

I will always love seeing that seat control panel in a Bentley. I'm currently sitting in a passenger seat out of a VW Phaeton that I made into an office chair, with almost the exact same panel (just with slightly different looking buttons). Those adjustments are extremely nice, aren't they? What a comfy seat. I'll never have another office chair without seat ventilation.

[@WatchJRGo]

You got it wired up? That’s amazing! 😍

I was hoping you have a youtube video for it. New life goals!

It is a car and a majority of cars eventually get scrapped. Why not use perfectly fine parts to repair a vehicle that really isn't worth that much. Hoovie repaired a Maybach using parts from a scrapyard and that vehicle, when new, cost much more than the Bentley.

Hope luck stays with you John Ross 👍🙂👍

I have an 06 with heated seats too (Chevy Impala), but I wouldn't dare compare them to a Bentley's lol.

[@nicholasvinen]

It sounds like Terminal 15 might be the switched ignition power line, ie, the 12V rail that comes up when the key is in the ignition and turned. A faulty relay could cause problems there. A short to ground on that line would likely blow a fuse...

[@WatchJRGo]

Yup, deff seeing its ignition switch/relay from the book. Getting to that ignition is a whole issue by itself 😳

[@mightymikethebear]

Congrats on the salvage yard find. Did you order a replacement relay in case the salvage part stops working? Spare parts can take up a lot of space but they can be oh so useful when needed.

[@greglinarelli9401]

I had a mercedes where the seatbelt adjusted automatically when you moved the seat. My bmw also has the shoulder area of the seat move

I don't know why, but it seems LKQ got a handful of vehicles that had totally random engines tossed in them. Kind of makes it hard to pick much of anything with a 500+lb anchor sitting across the strut towers.

[@daveh2612]

They destroy the cars to pull the cats out when they are processing them, a lot of the times they use the loader to yank the engine out and then just throw it anywhere

Curious if JR pocketed that relay. I would never do that 🥸

[@Charlie_Crown]

I doubt it, especially as he'd be broadcasting that to the yard as soon as this vid went out, as in "...hey, he didn't pay for that relay the other day..", if it was being watched by an employee there

[@jritechnology]

I blew a 167 Relay on my Audi, exactly like that and it fit. However, a few of them I would notice online one of the pins was facing the wrong way...so I didn't buy it thinking it was for something else. I paid almost $80 for that relay at a TOPS parts store here in Orange County. Edit: LOL we found the 167 at the same time when you have the camera back in the back of the r8. I'm like "There it is JR" right as you said "There it is!".

[@marcusdamberger]

I was the same, I just saw the number just as he spotted it. Sometimes you find what you need at those U pull and Pay junkyards. I've done it in the cold like he was doing in this video too. Can get rather bone chilling cold with the wind and trying to get something off a smashed up car.

[@WatchJRGo]

Luckily I can return the one with the pins flipped on it 💯

[@dragos2010full1]

it was a A8 not r8

[@macka2010]

So I've owned an 06 A8 and an 09 Q7. Both V8 TDIs... In the Q7 one day it just wouldn't start. Trouble shooting I learned that kessy controls the steering lock and energizes Terminal 15... Which allows start! I checked terminal 15 relay and it was stuffed... Replaced it and hey presto, all going again...I vote Terminal 15. A generic one from a local auto electrician cost me about $20usd😉
