Audi RS6 C5 4.2, V8 Bi- Turbo, the beginning of project

[@_shaolinkaz6270]

this is NOT an easy job. I changed the timing belt kit + tensioners on my C5 2.8L (the same process) & let me tell you, my neighbors heard me cuss the heavens from my garage, on several occasions. LOL!! Granted I'm not mechanic and I learned how to do this entire process from another KZbin video. Kudos to you gents! Great video and commentary.

Such a cool build. I can’t imagine the work that goes into trying to sort through boxes and boxes to find small bolts/clips. Loving the video work!!

[@dcasteaux9181]

Agree. Sifting through your own boxes of bolts/clips is bad enough, but someone else's mess... oh shit.

[@KaMil-gw2qr]

i like how you mention the fact that the new camshaft adjusters you purchased are aftermarket because the genuine ones are 1000 bucks!

True … I wont tell you guys bull 💩 here

[@antonpandoursky9790]

I love the c5 rs6,but is such pain in the butt to service it😁But still even in now days has such a respectable power and halls a**!I think for the most part is under appreciated 🙂

[@KJohansson]

Timingbelt on a V8 C5 feels like a "engine out" job to do it properly. These are nice for their age (not the gearbox...), they are "old and new" in a tough way. Great video, one can hear your stress over all the mess.

[@VAGTechnic]

We wouldn’t remove the engine if we do timing only for costumer , it was out because of the turbo actuator

[@Jeroensgambling]

The RS6 C5 offers zero room to work from. In most cases an engine out and even when replacing the Turbo's is mandatory if you want to do it right.

Mint build! I owned a RS4 B5; little sister of this bigger brother. However if you did work on the engine, you might as well have remove the heads to further down inspect it rather then doing the required maintaince.

[@VAGTechnic]

We can’t force costumer 😅 if not was up to us , full rebuild … LOVE the B5 RS ! Such a legend car !

[@Jeroensgambling]

@@VAGTechnic Proberly resold next month as "fully inspected" etc. That gearbox obviously needs work. They snap at approx 80k of miles with that engine. Simply because they cant stand the TQ those engines produce. Launching is very bad for the AT. As for the RS4 B5 - i owned it 3 years. Spend over 30k of mods, upgrades and what more. It has seen the ring 3 times; and it's HP was around 500 with 600nm of TQ. Beast of a station. However MOT failed; exhaust gasses where not in check. We saw small cracks appearing in the heads, the paint started to fade and some more issues. It was cheaper to simply part the car, and sold all the "RS4 B5" exclusive parts to various people all over the globe. I got more for the car in parts then selling it as one unit. Eventually the chassis went on paper to swiss, to someone who wanted to convert his S4 B5 into a RS4 B5 (on paper). All the RS exclusive part where pretty much sold in less then 2 weeks. Got a good 19k out of it; mechanic costed me 2k and i was happy.

Thank you very much 4 all your Videos, really like watching them. I have an honest question.. for the last 4 years i am driving a SQ5 8r TDI and i keep having this idea and many called me crazy and it cant be done.. I was wondering if you could fit an RS6 engine in to a Audi SQ5 8r? I have saved up quite a bit of money for this idea but up until now, no one was able to tell me if that engine swap is possible or not. I would be very happy for your honest opinion. All the best

I like your videos even now that I've given up on ICE cars. Still like to see that tech being taken care of! But I'd have one suggestion. A parts cleaner. Those valve covers would've made the result so much better looking after like 15 min in a part washer. In general when something is off putting it in a cleaner fora quick refresh can never be bad...

As said it's the plastic. Once thats gone it's metal chain against metal housing. You dont want that.
