As a junior mechanical engineer, I've never used acute or obtuse to describe a triangle. I just focus on calculating or utilizing its angle. So, it's not surprising that he would not remember, if he hardly ever used it.

[@shadow-r3852]

Hey there, former VW mechanic here. I'd like to add a few things to this video. While the D. Napier & Son Engine is a W (also known as Y) engine, the VW's Engine is not really a W Engine. Strictly Speaking it's a "V V R" engine. The old W Engine had 3 seperate cylinder banks compared to the VWs 2 double banks. (2:00) Also I think that the cost of the VR design was rather high due to large amounts of Research and Developement that was needed aswell as the twisted crankshaft and all the unique parts that you couldn't ever hope to use on a "standard" V6 or R6 (I6) engine. (5:30) Next up from what I remember about the VR6 intakes, they don't actually have different length intakes and if they had it would just be short and long rather than an individual length for every cylinder. (around 6:30) Just as a sidenote: timing chains are always a weak link in Volkswagen engines and head gaskets aren't particularly long living either. (6:50) After that I have to admit that I've never heard the term "WR", VW just calles it "W". Furthermore while the 444 (SAE) HP were something, but by the early 2000s the Phaetons and Touaregs were also available with a V10 TDI (in Europe), which may not quite have the 444bhp, but a much higher torque as they are diesels. (9:40) Having driven both of them, I'd much prefer the V10 Diesel over the W12 Petrol engine, but that may differ in the US. Hope that helps people, sorry if I remember anything wrong. Sayonara! Shadow

[@platinumgrit]

Loved your comment! Thanks for sharing it :-)

[@lonniebrown5840]

The V10 TDI Touaregs were in the US as well. they are few and far between nowadays and still pull a high price. I cant wait to get one.

[@abelhorvat1540]

In croatia we have golfs more than all civics and mustangs together in US, two of my neighbours have Golf 2's. One of them has a vr6 swapped into it and It sounds like crap tbh, but the other one is trying to replicate it with its diesel engene and It sounds like a tractor and well riced civic had a baby. The worst fartcan ever. And yes, they are reving them in 1am. Sorry for bad english.

The letter "u" was written as "v" in Latin and Middle English scripts up until the late 1600s. Thus "w" is double-u, from when u was written as v.

[@dzelpwr]

@@v6tex, I've owned 3 B5.5 wagons, all with 2.0 TDIs. Loved them all. The interior is pretty simple, easy to use controls, super comfortable seats, very generous head room, which I personally appreciate being long in the torso. The chassis itself transmits less road noise than many of VW's newer offerings and the engine noise was pretty quiet at speed as well. Very comfortable and quiet highway cruisers. Great for long trips. The handling is pretty good, though lacking in feedback thanks to that Audi virtual steering axis suspension. Need to get myself back into one. I find them much more comfortable than the 2014 Passat I have now. As for engine options, unfortunately here in the U.S. we only got 1.8 turbos, 2.8 V6s, 4.0 W8 and the 2.0 TDI (BHW code, came automatic transmission only and was sold here for only 2 model years).

Cars are just assemblies of items invented for other uses, there is nothing on any car that was invented for use in cars.

The W-12 makes some sense, but the heads would be super complicated. Also, the 90deg V8 is near perfectly balanced.

[@Shiv1971]

V8 is.not perfectly balanced but needs throw weights. They are not that smooth.

I feel like b2b has become an updated version of science garage and i love it. as long as Jeremiah doesn't go all dilf on us and leave us

Think of an "acute" angle as "a cute" angle. Cute is small, an acute angle is under 90°. Obtuse is, of course, larger than 90°.

[@RCproject18]

I thought that same thing. That's what I learned in school also

Let's remember the w8 in the Passat... With a stick!

[@imrekalman9044]

275 hp/370 Nm in a frickin' Passat! Whoop!

[@abelhorvat1540]

Awful

[@Lofi.z34]

W8 is a heavy engine for only ~ 270 bhp, oof. A naturally aspirated i4 can make that much power

[@imrekalman9044]

@@Lofi.z34 How big, and for how long? 🤔

You think this is mad? Search ‘Napier deltic engine’ and thank me later

[@vikachan19]

"The Napier Deltic engine is a British opposed-piston valveless, supercharged uniflow scavenged, two-stroke Diesel engine used in marine and locomotive applications, designed and produced by D. Napier & Son." Yup there goes my evening, figuring out this thing. Thanks for the rec 👍. recommendation

[@krasiarsho8868]

aaaa three crank shafted, train, diesel monstrosity... i watch 2-3 videos and this think is insane

[@maxnaidoo2152]

That is super cool. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@DanielLopez-qm7kn]

Marine engineers design ridiculously powerful engines because they don't have to figure out the brake system, yeah, even the beefiest brembos would overheat, with that much power, then we add suspension that has to ride good, handle corners and whatnot. Designing a car is like a fine watch, everything is designed to work together. Is no coincidence the LS guys blow their transmissions when they don't take everything into accountm. Marine engineers don't know what a booster master cylinder is. That's why the most powerful cars have the craziest sticker prices, it takes the very best to design, and execute the production and manufacture of the car, with the finest leathers and wood grains for the interior and edge cutting technology. Truly masterpieces. But people often destroys them because they can't handle the big power.

[@hughjarse4627]

Daniel Lopez I have worked on a few in locomotive I have never seen them in marine use.

"Put on your headphones and listen to this".... an ad pops up...

[@mrodriguezmontes]

And that is why in Spanish we call it “doble v”

[@MrRagerPR]

Martín Rodríguez In Puerto Rico we still say “Doble U”

[@charper9890]

I think w is pronounced the way it is in English because back then things were in cursive and I believe the w in cursive looks like two “u”s. Just a guess.

[@scrimmytv]

I’m french the pronunciation for W literally translates the “double V”

[@kristiaan1]

just like in probably every single language EXCEPT english.

[@cookedsalmon5595]

Not in German

5:12 So what if someone in 1,945 designed a 45L VR6 but instead used Two cylinder heads & with one camshaft each could it even work?
