  • čas pƙidĂĄn 16. 08. 2024
  • This 2.5-litre 5-cylinder RS3 Daza engine came to us with an ominous rattling sound. We opened it up to find out what was wrong with it and it wasn't good...
    Apologies to everyone for the mess up with the original upload!! đŸ˜ŹđŸ€Šâ€â™‚ïž

    People want to get stuff done on the cheap. I've spent about ÂŁ11K on 2005 BMW 120d Auto 153K miles on replacing worn out parts. I always try to build back better - Bilstein B12 kit, top mounts, bottom mounts, poly ARB bushes, ARB droplinks, front & rear M3 tension struts + LCAs, rear subframe inserts, new injectors, turbo, uprated FMIC, steering, radiator, condensor, alternator, steering rack, track rods and ends, EGR remapped out + upped BHP to 200 and cleaned the intake.

A few seconds before the failure I started to get knocking or some kind of misfire, and then the engine just went. There was no prior warning otherwise I would've noticed. Surprisingly it all happened while I was just cruising in a high gear and low throttle. To this day I'm not sure what happened as I decided to sell the car after the fact

    Rick, i have always used nanodrive in my cars, i use motul in the bikes, I always want the best gear regardless of price (within reason),
    would you switch to 300v on a remapped 3 litre diesel that does about 8 to 10k between oil changes, never tracked or anything but it does get beaten from time to time?

    He saying great things, but you don’t want to boost that motor, the pvc and brakes are driven by oil pressure instead of air pressure. You don’t want stuff like that driven by oil pressure when boosting it first of all and the transmission needs to have a solenoid kit done to it cuz Audi doesn’t make very great transmission solenoids from the factory. So definitely upgrade the transmission valve body and put a pvc kit on it to run the brakes on vacuum pressure instead of oil pressure. And some cast iron heads would also be great.

    What’s the idea of putting shims under the hydraulic tappers please.

    • @REPerformanceUK
      @REPerformanceUK  Pƙed rokem +1

      It’s to stop the tappet being jacked down which would open the lash. Adding shims closes the lash.
      But cutting the seats and replacing the valves reduces the lash as well, so double trouble! The shim is pushed as small as it can go and there is still not enough room!

    why would they remove the lash? isn't that valve setup 101? good way to burn valves.

    My RS3 engine has been re-built. It runs and pulls very smoothly, except that I am losing coolant at a rate of 300ml per 500km. The engine was diagnosed internally and externally multiple times with no issues (oil tests, pressure tests, spark plug examinations, etc). No coolant puddles on the ground, no coolant smell in the cabin, reservoir and caps are OEM brand new. No culprit can be found either externally or internally. I would like to ask you for your opinion before I will have the engine pulled apart in coming February 2023. What else would you suggest to look into?

    • @ironmantooltime
      @ironmantooltime Pƙed rokem

      Either head gasket or cracked block. Wouldn't be comfortable running that. Exhaust in coolant test? It won't be just disappearing (since this doesn't have water cooled ic right?)

    • @REPerformanceUK
      @REPerformanceUK  Pƙed rokem +1

      Are you a sleeved or stock block?
      Have you done a coolant block test?
      Could be heat exchanger, head gasket, turbo or cracked block (would have other issues though).

      Yes, they are sleeved and coolant block test and many other tests have been carried out but to no finding. No coolant residue can be found everything. No white smoke from the exhaust. Engine has been tuned to 600HP at the crank so far and runs extremely well. That is why I am worrying that they will find nothing wrong with the engine after I have it pulled apart. But I have to do it because I have no more options.

      Head gasket is definitely not the culprit because they had looked into that many times. The engine runs like an angel with 600HP now. Maybe cracked block, but if that is the case there could be some visual coolant residue somewhere. No residue can be found everywhere. Coolant pressure test passed with flying colors. Yet, coolant is disappearing at a rate of 300ml per 500km. If I fill the coolant into the coolant reservoir right up to the top (pass the maximum line), I can run the car for about 1000 km before I need to top up.
