I broke my cam chain tool, so I grabbed it and shoved it hard enough to get the new gasket in. Yes, the EGR was the worse. I have a tiny leak back there but not from the halfmoon, I think its a...
I got a wacky code the othe rday, saying the ECU and wasnt talking to the transmission. Anyone seen that one? Sorry, dont have the code with me but ross tech said it could be one of 8 things.
Just finished mine a few hundred miles ago, pretty easy and cheap. I used Mcguiers degrease, red stuff. Ive used spirits as well, both work but I like the red stuff now.
I've been chasing another leak and while I was at it I spent some time trying to figure out why my maff sensors won't seat into the intake system. Turns out the vent hole on the valve cover is...
Just bumping this one more time before it goes into the body shop. I school bus backed into the wife's car so it has to be repainted but would rather have a factory painted fender if I can.
Interesting pic of the leak near the valve cover. I have the same type leak and have replaced all the gaskets to no avail. Only on the passenger side am I having this issue.
In for a regular one unpainted.
My lady scuffed her RS6 RH Avus Silver fender, Id rather bolt a nice one instead of bondo.
I bought mine a few months ago, the upper control arms (non adjustable) are slightly out of spec. center diff leaks, drivers die CV boot, power steering line and the mass airflow sensors were bad. ...
The only reason I found out I had bad mafs was looking at them on teh freeway, and they were not really responding as they should, I never got a MAf code, just ECU and TCU not talking and car running...
Sorry to jump in on lazer's thread but after finally figuring out I had 2 bad MAFs that were kicking out wacky codes and pointing no where near a MAF code Im getting ready to take a data dump myself....
Ive been looking at the adjustable uppers, would be nice to find a black friday deal on them.
Thanks mrdave, Im planning a longer trip and get some miles on it so I can see what its really doing. I live 3 miles from work and the car doesnt get much time on teh freeway. I think I have a...
Ive been having a few issues with my RS6 and troubleshooting things one at a time.
When I picked up the car it had newer front tires but noticed it pulled to the right. Took her in for alignment...
Im looking for the part number on the center diff seal. The measurements are 7mm thick, ID is 40mm and OD is 52mm. I bought the one they showed on blauparts and its the wrong one.
Im reading up on the hexnet system right now. They way they want you to adjust is missing from what im seeing. I can reset codes at which time the headlights move and clear. I wasnt using the app...
Am I correct that I can adjust the lights manually when the vagcomm is hooked up? Im using the wifi one and it doesnt seem to have the same features other ones do. Im at a value of 50 but I cant...
The sealant was put on each end, never in teh middle. Thanks for posting pics.
The issue was the cam cap, or cam tension gaskets, either way replaced both and so far no leak. I did not remove the cam to replace the half-moon and gasket under the cam chain tension deal. I...
I will pull it out of the box when I get home and try to post a pic, and measurement of the tube.:revs:
The filter from BND is short for better flow. I have one at the house and can take a measurement if anyone is interested. Im debating swapping fluids right now, I have 86k on teh car and dont want to...
When you find neww lenses, let me know where you got them. Mine have been polished but Id like to replace If I can.
Are you talking about the door blades? I dont know how they are attached but...
Disregard, I found it. I think I have a crack in the valve cover. Ill remove it again and have it bead blasted for further inspection.
I assumed it was a passenger valve cover but it isn't. I'm getting oil dripping down the passenger side exhaust manifold and onto the a arm-suspension area. It isnt the oil cooler, that's all dry. ...
