This is the first time I have seen the inside of one of these engines. Do you want to laugh? I was recently told by a mechanic that for only $1,400 he would change the timing belts on a 2005 Continental, which were passed due. Unless the 2005 engines had timing belts, instead of timing chains, I don't think I'll bring the car in for that work. 2:19

[@hadial-saadoon2114]

The timing chains (there are more than one) on these engines and the VR6s that preceded them require the separation of the engine and transmissions in order to replace the chains and guides. On the VW Phaetons, both the W8s and the W12s, this required removing the entire drivetrain assembly forward of the rear driveshaft to do so. I worked at a VW dealership as a tech for 12 years, and fortunately I never had to perform this work on the Phaetons, but I definitely cursed my luck when I'd draw that job on the VR6 Golfs, Jettas and Eurovans. Special tools are mandatory to do this work on any of these engines.

Technically you can repair the engine while it's in the car but it would take ages too much labor time, These engines are designed so you could lift the car of the engine by lowering the subframe brings down the engine and transmission as one unit, once the engine is dropped down on the ground you have all the room you need to work on them.

I once handled a small pneumatic blue Bosch drill at work. Like 3Nm of torque. Thought it was nifty, maybe I'd buy one for myself. Looked at catalogue. 600 Eurobux.

Funny how the materials used are quite inexpensive yet we don't get V8s etc in regular cars anymore. It is a shame

“Has anyone seen my watch? Anyone? ...oh dear...”

[@inkydoug]

HA! Human error can only be minimized. While welding a hydraulic tank I noticed my safety glasses were missing. I left them inside the tank and tacked the lid on.

James Poteat has anybody seen my spectacles ? What about trying to diagnose a strange noise if somebody had put a piston in half a turn out. I saw the aftermath of somebody fitting six BMW pistons in the wrong way.

It's 7:37 pm cst.

When asked about why a watch was found in one of the engines, the tech said "I was testing the timing?"

[@doctorthee]

I always have a strange whining noise in the passenger seat, still haven't figured out what it is. Though the noise is only there when my wife rides with me, real strange...

4:50 *Low compression on piston c2* Complete disassembly and block disposal.

It is, of course, a double Volkswagen VR-6 engine. The VR-6 was developed as a compact powerhouse for the Golf to make an even quicker GTI. Then a genius at Volkswagen came up with the idea that combining two compact V-6 engines with a common crankshaft would make a medium-sized blockbuster engine. Bentley (by then Volkswagen owned) proved to be an ideal platform for this W-12.

Within 20 years this will be nostalgia... Like steam engines.

[@nicholasrhodes4550]

I'm reminded of photos I've seen of the Duesenberg assembly line.

[@MarcKemp-q6n]

Probably the only V12 I'll ever have much interest in

[@kostasgt500]

The party is at the turbo install station lol

[@zxggwrt]

Solid looking truck engine 👍
