Had dual pulley, stage 2 tune with carbon intake..... it blew up with 60k miles.

@JohnKaufmann what do you mean it blew up with 60k miles? Did the engine give up or fail?

@@luiszubillaga1463 rod knock and required a rebuild - I exaggerated by saying blew up but the engine was worthless. Traded it in on a new lexus.

@@JohnKaufmann lexus is350? Those are nice, I like the 2014-2018 or so style

Nope just back cans

rent saw $25 Cut bust and remove $0 Pour bagged crete about $150 Not too bad. $175

I’m deciding between a f10 n55 & a a6 lol I love the whine of the a6 after a air intake

@@ernestdjr same ! Lol it sounds so nice don't get me wrong the N55 sounds great with The catless downpipe and I'm on stage 2+ rn but Im ready for something different I've had mines for a while

@@f10leek48 yeah n55 sounds amazing but I think you can get a little more out the 3.0t

@@ernestdjr I’m exactly going trough the same thing as you! I’m a die hard Bimmer guy and had 3 bimmers and was looking at a N55 535i as my next car. The only downside is that these N55 suffer from oil starvation by itself which then damages the rod bearings and toasts the engine. It’s way more common then you think too. So for that reason I was thinking of getting a A6 3.0T to switch thing up and they’re way more reliable overall. Still not sure though lol

@@Medal6 I got the a6 & don’t regret it at all I love this car & I get 28mpg 😁 only got air intake and muffler delete for right now

yes.

thank you <3

Nope the plates are flat. Can’t imagine the hardware we not bring it true when torqued down

I would not unless the timing chain, pvc, waterpump and motor mounts have been changed

Just the rear mufflers

had it flashed by EPG Motorsports in Milwaukee

No that was the stock do with cats. Btw the car is fubar now. Audi is junk and blew up at 74k miles

​@JohnKaufmann it is strange that happen so early at 8 74k miles...I have a 2012 with 123k miles and runs great but a little rattle upon start in the morning, makes me a little nervous

That was a three car garage with 9.5 foot ceilings. We now have this lift in a 40x60 shop. With 12 foot ceiling. Thx for watching

How long did u have the car for if u don’t mind me asking and , what issues started to happen before the knock ?

@@anthonyg1720 hi I had it since 20k miles. It was dealer serviced its whole life right up to 74k miles. (4k passed the extended warranty). The chains would rattle upon start, they have since new. This time the chains never stopped rattling.. Plastic got into mechanics pass the oil filter.. Show over. Literally zero warning, since and I'm obsessed with cars and listen for every rattle, tick or knock I would have picked up on it. Here's the thing even if the chains didn't fail the car needed - - Motor mounts Pcv Control arms Thermostat Waterpump Those things alone - $5500 - 6000 at a shop. These cars will cost you $10s of thousands as the second owner to properly maintain one. Now I'm the owner of a beautiful 2022 ES Lexus am thrilled with it.

This is why you dont buy Audis TFSI engine 😂 love Audi but man they just couldn't get the TFSI right

@@JohnnyCage4Real I agree

@@JohnKaufmann listen bro that’s why you gotta get a protection plan a lil extra a month can be a life saver.

Nope just stock

Sure. The cats are still on.

Yeah its just the muffler

In person is deeper. No rice here

They're heavy but not too tough to walk them around.

It's stock

Just the last two mufflers

I can do that. My arms are 3 pieces. I'll do it in the morning.

Sorry my lifts arms are totally different than yours. Probably won't matter. If I measure. Did you figure it out?

@@JohnKaufmann I have longer arms, I tried to get shorter ones like your, unfortunately they are saying they don't exist :(

Resonators up front then suitcase then mufflers. I only took out the last muffler

@@JohnKaufmann I removed the rear mufflers and put on enforcer glasspacks. It was still droney for me even with muffler delete

15667 magnaflow

15667 magnaflow and resonator was cut out!

@@JohnKaufmann what was the drone like? be honest, i dont mind. i am thinking about doing more work to my car. already removed suitcase and got slight drone with the mufflers i swapped to(idk if they had anything to do with it, maybe..). was considering either deleting or replacing the 2 resonators right after cats with pipe or cherrybombs to allieviate some drone hopefully, but still being louder and not too raspy.

@@flute136I ran a magnaflow muffler with no resonator it definitely droned while cruising on the highway, I got sick of it after two years now I run it with a resonator. Its definitely not as loud but still is loud when you want it to be.

Thanks!

The 3.0t I’m thinking of doing it, any regrets?? Does the drone bother to much??

#15667 on Magnaflow’s website

Because it is in fact a 6 cylinder. Just at a 15° angle.

@@gregoryrobbins5320 theoretically then it should sound like an inline 6?

@@nilssjoberg2522 it’s the firing order, they don’t all fire in sequence like an inline 6, they fire at weird opposite times and ends of the engine

@@nilssjoberg2522 The firing order and the way that the cylinders are placed (15 degree offset between each) is why they make the sound that they do. O O O O O O ^ is how the block is designed

@@gavanphotography7814 I suppose the exhaust port length of the forward cyls is where you get the uneven exhaust length

Yes they are the same motor.

Yes indeed!

@@buffaudi6293 no they arnt its the s5 that has the same motor

@@RoseCityCarCulture Went stright-pipe route, man the sound is V12’ish :D BTW RoW/EU A5’s came with a 3.0 and 7 speed DSG, just slightly untuned with 270 instead of 333. It’s not available for the US market, I order from the US all the time as an S5 even though it’s an A5s.

​@RoseCityCarCulture if it's a euro model they came with the 3.0t in the A5. USA is the only country that didn't get that model per usual.
