IM REBUILDING MY AUDI R8'S V8 ENGINE!! *IN DEPTH* PT2

[@SimonPower65]

Dean you are a perfectionist. You ooze confidence in your craft and its a pleasure to watch. Thank you.

[@SavingSalvage]

Thanks 😊

[@coffeeguy6673]

Second that, well said ! I repair coffee machines and thought they were complex but this is another level. Hats off to you Dean. Top notch.

[@paulmoore6345]

The silicone beading is very neat, you should be fitting bathrooms !

[@eamonkelly2792]

Great job Dean, you make it look so easy putting it back together again, I hope you and the family have a great weekend

[@Fflintiii]

9:03 I don't know if it is important but it seems like there is a metal wire in the assembly lube on the right hand side watching the video and when you put the metal bit on top of it you can see it clearly! And when you finish with the part it seems like it is still in there!

[@jonnowocky8179]

Had one of these for years and basically lived in it, absolutely loved every minute (think it’s the better car over the V10), great to see one dissected in detail and restored with some real talent and attention, many thanks, look forward to more progress

[@333brooky]

love it when you turned the engine over at the end all the those chains! Thanks Dean

[@johnhounslea4226]

A real pleasure watching you painstakingly put that v8 back together, cannot wait for the first fire up, all the best Dean🙂

[@davidhatton6858]

I don't know how you remember it all Dean. It's really engrossing to watch 👍

[@willlibby4531]

Hi Dean just watched your RS4 video yesterday. You changed the chain tensioners to new one's and that put your engine back to TDC on the RS4 after your 2 rotations 👍🏼

[@ErikPetersenDK]

I think you should look at part 5 of the rebuild of the RS4 engine . There is the issuse with your timing :) Great job so far. Br from Denmark Erik

[@ALIGEE6989]

Dean those silicon beads was sickkkk, looked like a rubber gasket mate, absolutely beautiful 😍

[@andrewpemberton7295]

Well done Dean, always enjoy a good engine rebuild 👍

[@matthewbriggs388]

Love the coffee table and strap wrench. If it works it works. I notice you’ve bought a fancy torque wrench too. Makes angle tightening a doodle I’m sure.

[@The_journeyy]

Crazy to think how amazing this is hands down for this video and the quality on it ☺️

[@ianbond1663]

Great job Dean. When you turned the engine over and you could see all the chains moving, it looked impressive 👍💯

[@macbilling6410]

Fascinating to watch you work. It was nothing like that when I was a young mechanic back in the dark ages. Looking forward to the next episode

[@andru9102]

I was thinking how neat your beading was on part 1. Confirmed in this video. Beautiful rebuild.

[@bz849]

Some boy with the engines it’s amazing to watch this as if it’s nothing to you

[@enigma7791]

This is like scientific art taking place right before our eyes! Astonishing knowledge of the workings of a very complex engine.

[@andrewkidger7048]

Absolute pleasure to watch, the mind boggles watching you time it up, fantastic stuff, love the in depth engine rebuild, top stuff Dean, well done.

[@TurboLevoSam]

Cracking job as always Dean, really enjoying watching these builds.

[@Showing_the_car_]

Really great job, very well explained and demonstrates great care and skill. it always surprises me that they make the chain guides from plastic. And...... "top beading".

[@NigeUK007]

Amazing work! Loved this. Should seriously consider getting an Aquablast machine to clean up those parts. Will change your world!

[@johnwren5516]

Great video as usual Dean , extremely daunting to most of us but the way you take your time to explain and show us every step of the process , I’m sure gives us all the feeling we could at least attempt something similar , maybe not as complex 😂😂

[@georgedaville4662]

These videos showing you rebuilding such a complex engine are amazing. So many parts running at incredibly tight tolerances. 👍😎

[@tonychamberlain8057]

This is very interesting and something I’ve always wanted to do .I honestly don’t know how you remember everything ,well done Dean ! That’s one car in my opinion that does need a new lease of life !

[@thatginettaguy1714]

Its a brave man to do this on camera, so many "experts" out there desperate to spot a mistake! Really interesting video

[@darrenharlow8947]

Great work there dean, you have to have big balls tackling a job like that and filming it all.The engine is like looking at a swiss watch while you were putting the timing chains on super technical

[@StaticVapour590]

That perfect silicone bead at 14:28 comes from applying wise amount of silicone and good technique. Can't wait to hear it roaring :)

[@MrHuismeester]

Maybe the best Mechanic here on KZbin !!! You are working very secure and proper, Aldo a i am a total Nitwit on engines , still very nice to watch !!!

[@Republic3D]

Great videos mate. I have a new found respect for mechanics. You guys kind of need to be both IT tech, watchmakers and rocket scientists at the same time. Impressive work! Love this channel.

[@johncoombs3128]

Another fascinating R8 engine assembly Nice one dean 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@seanfarrell6009]

Great video Dean, very interesting to see all the inner workings of what looks like a complex engine, thank you

[@gsmdo8836]

Excellent video, Dean - attempting anything like this would stress the carp out of me. You make it seem straightforward - and produce an excellent commentary as well...😎

[@whoops607]

Before fitting the baffle plate I would have used gasket sealant as I'm a belt and bracers guy. Great video though. Thanks.

[@michaelclutton8446]

Thanks Dean, you make it look so easy

[@reedjacksonmaccom]

Excellent work again. So much editing too. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@emmettgallagher4552]

Very impressive Dean ,putting back all those timing chains, when you were turning the block over one of the tensioners on the right, seems to jump back each time you crank it!!!!! is that normal.

[@projecteuroau]

I think because they don’t have any oil pressure

[@tlabort]

Well done Dean the sealant looks factory and that's not easy most people put to much on and it looks like a jam sandwich great job really well explained most people what to now the torque settings and timing marks etc so thanks

[@kevin8977]

Great to watch Dean please treat yourself to a new table to rest the engine on !!!

[@VivaceCoin]

Great job Dean, you're one step closer to fully rebuilding an R8 which is utterly astonishing to me and i feel honoured to watch the process!

[@brandtwegner2721]

Well done mate! Final touches before the home stretch

[@vegasphil]

Outstanding job - really hats off to you. A complex job covered in great detail and videoed perfectly. 👏👏 can’t wait to see it going. Sure you will be triple checking everything after the rs4 issues!

[@domcharles6052]

This is so cool, loving watching this as a process, think I used to live just up the road from where you’re based as well. Living the dream mate!

[@waynehammerton5698]

Brilliant work once again Dean and thankfully it's starting to resemble an engine again

[@linedancer111]

Wow that’s great a bit different from my day with v8 Rover engines, can’t wait for next part!

[@apoco_lips9957]

love the video, just wondering if you have experience what I have when torquing cylinder head bolts, I find that the bolts I started on first become loose after finishing the torque sequence once and I have to go back over a couple times to make sure they are correctly torqued before moving to the angle torque

[@forgacsattila1278]

It was my pleasure to see you from the beginning how this R8 engine evolved, I can t wait to put all bag together and start the engine, nice work✌️

[@teddycreasey2275]

Can definitely see the quality of the videos going up keep up the great work and thanks for the amazing vids to watch !

[@paultaylor9652]

For all us arm chair mechanics your doing a grand job Deane, the only internal workings of a V8 I've actually ever seen in real life was 1980's Rolls Royce.

[@SteveMaggs]

Great video. Brilliant mechanic.

[@SavingSalvage]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MattyEngland]

Nice work Dean. Your engine building skills could put a lot of of KZbins so called 'professional' engine builders to shame.

[@mikaoj74]

Best Garage channel on KZbin! Perfect Sunday!

[@nigelw598]

Gday Dean, Very impressed mate. “A mechanics mechanic” 11 out of 10 👍👍🍻

[@Stevo8013]

Brilliant work Dean, I could quite happily watch that without the timelapse 👍👍👍👍

[@patrickbrown7491]

Well done! The timing chains are crucial, hope that you are not flying blind without a factory manual, since you have all the torque specs assume you do. Only concerned using a filter wrench to torque Cam ends as the factory tool locks in to ensure no movement as timing is dead accurate, not sure if the motor is a interference type either?

[@davidkingston5800]

Superb mate, very brave tackling that engine build, hope it saves you a load of cash

[@mikewestover6326]

Your a very knowledgeable and clever bloke , very interesting well done Dean ....

[@HuntsChris]

A session in a vapour/soda cabinet would make that engine block look brand new.

[@trainmanbob]

Fantastic. Your care and attention to detail Dean is exemplary.

[@mikaoj74]

Aaahh greath, can`t wait to see the GT4. Love your work, followed you for years now, and constant great stuff going on

[@johnmills3619]

Well done, very impressive that you’ve tackled this engine and fabulous workmanship rebuilding it! 😊

[@f1kwa399]

All that beautiful work and perfection on the inside, my OCD wants to iceblast or vapour blast the outside of the engine and detail the engine bay, I’m as nervous as hell watching this and praying no RS4 repeats🤞🙏

[@markbennett6658]

We had an Audi S4 Convertible a few years ago that had timing chains and ancillary drives at the back as well. No doubt a less complex unit than this but watching your rebuild I’m breathing a sigh of relief that nothing went tits up with our engine whilst under our ownership! Phew😂

[@TheVintageApplianceEmporium]

Amazing stuff! Watching the engine go round with all those chains and sprockets and everything turning is just wonderful

[@andrewsimpson5436]

Great work and I get your thing about the finished beads!

[@cliveclive]

Magic work Dean, with so many jobs on the go glad you got a good memory....(sometimes)

[@SavingSalvage]

I think my memory capacity is 100% utilised in the workshop as outside of it my memory is awful 😂

[@gman6861]

If I had the spare cash knocking around I’d definitely scoop this R8 up when it’s done. Superb attention to detail 👍🏻

[@j14phe]

Dean brilliant I've seen a few well known mechanics run away from these cars you are right up there with the best Dean and Sreten no fear best of Europe John

[@renovateandflip2073]

Absolutely cracking good vid Dean.. perfect on the sealing.. when do we get to see the progress on the others like the vrs 🤷‍♂️😂😂👍

[@johnelbro127]

Brilliant work, so much skill shown this will run sweet. 👍👍👍👍

[@stephendutton3766]

Properly impressive. As I explained to my little one it's like biggest lego set going, but a very cool one.

[@davidcampbell9763]

Nice job dean love the content enjoying the build of this complicated engine 👍

[@alistairjones4794]

Dean you make it look easy! Keep going wanna see the R8 run again

[@mortythealien2783]

you are doing a great job. cant wait to see this finished.

[@np4694]

Top work Dean. Looking forward to hear the 1st start up 👍

[@mudpluggers1233]

You are a clever lad watched you from the start brilliant videos

[@hebe1792]

Very cool. Man, resting the engine on that ikea table made me nervous the entire time it was there. Looking forward to hearing that baby purr.

[@thescientiststyle7967]

Hey Dean, just wanted to say that I watched a video of yours a few years ago due a similar problem on my Audi and I subscribed immediately after... I always look forward to your videos and I hope to be here when you reach your well deserved million subscribers. Keep up the great work!

[@simonj3247]

Hi Dean, at 22.21 when you’re putting the second cam in the first head there is what looks like swarf or something, it even casts a shadow. It was stuck in the tacky rebuild fluid when you put the cam down…..

[@chrisdavidson9431]

Another great Video Dean - thanks very much for your time & effort.

[@mathewdallimore271]

Really good video I like watching even my little boy likes watching your videos and he is only 3 keep up the good work I watch every time you put a video up looking forward to the car you got last week be good to see the work on that one

[@spaggtrait1608]

I would never have the patience to do this kind of thing. Nice Job.

[@EnglishTurbines]

The engineer in me wanted to trim off that silicon sealant inside the oil pump cover...I was expecting the oil pump to be gear driven. I think the engine designer had a chain and tensioner fetish...Less is more. Fascinating rebuild though, a vapour blasting machine would be so useful on some of those covers...🤔😳😳😏😏🇬🇧

[@stevo4649]

thank you Dean todays upload made excellent viewing,,but then all your uploads are exceptional.have a good week,👍👍

[@bigboy1170]

Beautiful!! Great content been looking forward to this all week. Am worried about that wooden table though! 😂

[@MrAndyS]

I found it very satisfying when the cam locking tool went in

[@julianwoodward5360]

you know your stuff fair play.greetings from barry island south wales

[@rick6738]

Good job! I tought the last one with the rs4 you mentioned about a timing mark on top off the vvt pulleys? Didn't saw it in this vid

[@buck8441]

Mind blowing, how the hell do you know where it all the parts go, well done, you make it look easy 👏👏

[@dave4ku]

A thing of beauty! Well done sir 👍

[@smtsoftwaresolutions1966]

Can't wait to hear this run. Good effort

[@andyjrichie6709]

Firing it up will be exciting

[@malcelwell7209]

Great content Dean made it look so easy 😳🤔👍

[@roberthollis7618]

Great video. I can't wait to hear that v8 sound 👍

[@blondeboi]

Quality video as per Dean.. also props to that tiny table for holding that engine haha

[@Kevmac332]

Well done Dean lad👏

[@adamcrook9837]

Always good videos

[@chrisreant2058]

Great job as always but the coffee table mate made me nervous lol 😆

[@Davey-Dr]

I love watching this guy. The reason i do is because he's exactly like me! 🤣 methodical to a fault, always makes the odd mistake and finds ways to correct it on film so he's not hiding anything. A true mechanic! The difference is with me, I try to correct my mistakes without telling anyone🤣🤣
