I think the thing that makes wizard vids appealing to me is that first off he's a subject matter expert on all types of auto repairs based on the wealth of experience he has. Secondly i feel like hes totally honest and gets right to the point and the impact. The production value seems amateur, but I appreciate that, the content isnt bogged down with cinematic shots and time wasting fan fare. The wizard isnt an actor, hes a real person and that's cool.
Love the short intro too.
Seems a very honest man!
I like how mellow he is.
I agreed 100%, basically the opposite of SK
When it comes to talking about car repairs, I honestly don't respect anyone as much as Car Wizard. He's legit.
I just love how mellow he is. Not shouting at the camera 😂. He is the calming voice you need when ur car is going to hell in a hand basket and you have tried everything.
I guess you don't like Scott Kilmer. 😕
Perfect for the people that buy used leases Audi's.
And if you put Wizard's playback speed to 1.25 X, his voice sounds fine and you can get all this same info in 13 minutes.
As a DIY mechanic I did this a similar way. However I filled each chamber with gasoline for several hours to soften the carbon. I then used GDI intake / valve cleaner from an autoparts store and a wire brush/pick/screwdriver and compressed air to clean out the debris. Also I made sure to change the oil after doing this.
Mad respect to the guy for deciding to go through with the repair... even if he plans to sell, or wants the car in a sellable state after it's done. It's good to see more of these cars roadworthy. And it's awesome that everyone gets an opportunity to see you show the intake problem firsthand, I think the previous video a few viewers were confused- mentioning Seafoam or additives as a possible solution. Also showing everyone the variable geometry intake manifold with the plastic flaps that can crack/break, and disappear straight into the intake ports, and possibly end up in the combustion chamber. Take notes guys: A lot of modern cars have variable geometry intakes like this. Plastic components are also all over the place on critical engine stuff like this intake.
Also btw- it looks like your guy has a recently replaced intake manifold. There's no way from the condition of it inside, that it's the original. That's AWESOME, because from what I understand- newer OEM intake manifolds for these 5.2s have more metal flap components than the original. And, yaknow. He's taking care of his car!
Thanks for the video Wizard!
"Guess what's wrong with this?" would be a great series for you and you are the perfect guy.
That's a great idea I think car wizard should consider it
Can we hear that engine running after you’re completed?
Yes! A before and after?
So interesting to see/read all this, brought a smile to my face....how times have changed. I grew up in the UK the 50's with no fuel injection, no emission controls, no unleaded fuel, no synthetic oils, no super-close tolerance engine components no freeways and mostly stop-start driving. Pulling the head(s) for an annual de-coke was an accepted way of life, whatever you were driving!
Looked up B&G MSDS sheet for this material. It contains n-methylpyrrolidone or NMP. Likely a good thing you didn't run it past those plastic vanes in the intake manifold they may have dissolved or why some have failed in other cars. We use it in refineries to extract aromatics from Lube oils.
CRC uses polyetheramine PEA in their valve cleaner. Similar to the same additive used in gasoline to keep valves clean, Techron from Chevron. The reason you can get it out is it's polymerized gasoline and crankcase vent oil and not pure carbon like you see on exhaust valves. Thanks Car Wizard.
I would not only be wearing gloves, but a certified respirator when using that cleaner.

Thanks Mrs.Wizard for all your hard work behind the scenes. You are doing a great job. I also like when you ask questions and keep Mr.Wizard on track. 🙂
Agreed, having Mrs Wizard chime in with questions is a nice touch! Nice to see a good old fashioned American family running their business and working hard! Reminds me of my family growing up!
When Mrs. Wizard mentioned oven cleaner, it reminded me of when I used to clean fuel nozzle on the M1A1 Abrams gas turbine engines. We would spray them with easy off and let them soak for a few hours.
Easy Off is a surprisingly versatile cleaner. It's also great for removing anodizing.
Easy Off is great for cleaning motorcycle exhaust melted boot marks, etc.
It has sulfuric acid in it. It is a good acid that attacks carbon based things including skin. So that product, because it is so dangerous and less accepted as easy off is, it is at risk of getting sued. I am pretty sure that easy off is the same acid based stuff. Drano is also the same.
We used to use this stuff called seafood
@@macbook802 seafoam?
BG makes amazing products. Unfortunately most of Audi/VW have this design starting in 2005-2006. It's labor intensive but no impossible. You did an amazing job, way to keep another one of these V10's on the road.
For people who work on their own vehicles, "CRC GDI IVD Intake Valve Cleaner" can be bought from most auto parts stores. Its basically the same thing. Not sure if its as concentrated as the BG stuff, but it works.
The Wizard is the best part of Hoovie's show, and now we can get pure Wizard all the time! :)
Chris I fully agree.I actually forward thru Hoovies videos to see wether or not he takes the vehicle to the wizards shop,if not I move on.
Amy Norrad thought i was the only one...
Hoovie has more dollars than sense. A fool is parted from his money.
@@csjames69 hoovie is that his name? He's a twat I dont like him.
Man - I'm in OKC and think it is just about worth the drive to take my car(s) to the Wizard. I like your approach to maintenance and repairs; not to mention you are upfront and honest about the cost of your service. (As a former armor officer, I really appreciate mechanics that kept me running and in the fight too.)
Congrats to the Wizard on getting 250,000 subscribers! This man deserves at least 3,000,000 subscribers if you ask me! Keep up the great work Wizard! :-)
I did this job on an E90 335i. Used a $200 walnut blaster kit. Entire job took me and my dad about 5 hours. My car wasn't running rough, but it had 70K miles and I had no record of it being done before, so it was more preventative maintenance. Kinda fun actually
Refreshing to see an honest mechanic and honest shop. Congratulations on 250k subscribers. I love your channel
mrkrzt I mean, anyone can be honest on camera for a while. Not saying he's dishonest though.
@@mediocreman2 not saying you are dishonest either. But I know that this wizard says to people if he car they bring are not suited for his shop instead of taking their money and do a bad job. He is not afraid to turn away customers and point them somewhere else. You can't win them all, and maybe you are one of them that will remain skeptical. I will take the wizards advice on car repairs any day. Find me other shops that will give you all the tips and tricks needed to clean intakes and valves on a Audi S6/S8 telling you what to watch out for and all details to boot with tools recommended. Where I live that does not exist and I would have been charged an arm and a leg for a repair like this and the mechanic would have called it an engine rebuild. And without a video like this people would tend to believe this as before a cleaning their engine ran poorly and misfire. As far as car mechanics goes this is as close to honesty that you will get from any stranger. Thanks to Mrs. And Mr. Wizard I say.
Two of the nicest people I’ve seen on CZcams. Thank you for the videos!!
The B&G web site has a search tool for distributers and shops that carry their products. For me it turned out that my local Honda dealer parts department has them. The parts man was happy to order me what he was out of. Interesting video and a good procedure you figured out. Further confirmation that Audi's are not for me. Always good to see Mrs. Wizard, I enjoy her enthusiasm. Your videos helped the stay-at-home mandate. Thank you.
When Covid is gone and I can finally travel, i wish to come to the USA and visit this great man. Much respect to you Mr Car Wizard
Mrs. Car Wizard getting into the shot warmed my heart.
Very common issue on Audi 4.2 V8s. Had this exact cleaning procedure done by Indi shop for $1800. I did not need coils, but did replace plugs. Night and day difference in performance.
I actually love how these videos are produced. They are methodical and always seem to cover the key points. The continuity is great. Thanks Ms. Wizard!
Thank you very much Car Wizard for showing us how much work is involved and why these repairs cost so much .
Thanks for the infotainment during the quarantine. CONGRATS on 250K subscribers!!! Reminded me of buying 1986 Plymouth Relient (I know, kinda flashy) with AM only radio, one speaker in the front dash. By this time I had purchased a handful of early 70's beaters all with (yes 400+ cubic inch engines and 4 barrel carbs) AM/FM and a couple with cassette player.
Congratulations on 252K ! You've earned us all.Thank you for the fun,and informative videos.
I sure am glad I can fix my own stuff. A $13 can of cleaner (not whats listed by wizard) and 2-3 hours in the garage I would have those valves cleaned. I would even consider reusing the plenum gasket. Injectors, I have never worked on a car like that, but I can't imagine the plenum would take more than an hour to get off if you have to go back there for injectors.
Thank you so much Wizard. I've got an 04 S4 and have been thinking about doing this for the past year. It's nice to see a straight forward experienced person do this. Was weighing towards walnut blasting but this looks much more doable. Love the learning. Stay safe.
All these years and Car Wizard still refuses to use a headlamp.
why do that when he's got a perfectly good mouth?
Arne Asada Because I end up hitting the headlamp on a hood and hurting my scalp, which reeaaallly pisses me off.
@@CarWizard You could get some lights built into your glasses, maybe save on the dentist's bill.
@@CarWizard They make glasses frames with LEDs.
I know quite a bunch of mechanics... non of them use a headlamp, they use similar flashlights like Wizard and I see them use the magnetic bendy ones...
It's a Ferrari. The exhaust is the "radio." 🤔
Sebastian m my thought exactly
when you're on the highway, at a constant speed, the exhaust is just a drone or hum...that's when you want a radio.
@@voradorked Meh, put up with it or get a valved exhaust
Damn right
@@voradorked Ferrari ain't meant for US long straight and painful slow highways
Congrats Mr.& Mrs. Wizard on 250,000. Keep them coming. The subject content is excellent. The explanation of repair steps very logical and friendly to follow. As a viewer I enjoy the to the point presentation without a lot of BS. I really like the recommendations on product and tools. Thank you for making the effort to do this.
The methodical explanation this lad affords his viewers is so easily digested and retained, a true car person...
Glad to see that the wizard recommends this method. Eventually need to do this on my gti
Matt F Crushed walnut shell method is best and after completion Install a high end oil catch can
An aerosol can of Berryman B12 or Chrysler intake cleaner every couple of oil changes will keep your intake and valves clean and seating properly. You spray it in the intake as you rev the engine, the oil catch can is a good long term solution.
rumblers66 yep it definitely is. But I’m not gonna spend $300 on the tool. And buy an air compressor and a shop vac. And I’m not gonna pay somebody $1500 to it. I’m a diy kinda guy. Good enough. Good stuff.
@@toothferrin In case you missed it, the "Wizard" did use an air compressor with this method.
Mr. and Mrs. Wizard you're so nice! all the best to you!
I've been a Corvette mechanic half my life, worked at Riva and fixed Ferrari's, Car Wizard is the only mechanic i enjoy watching on CZcams, you are the best! greetings from Amsterdam.
Pleasant and informative along with a calm and professional way of narrating. Congratulations on 250,000 subscribers to both of you and your team.
Car Wizard intros always crack me up. "Oh hey guys" lol
Yeah its like a cheesy 80s video tutotial.. and loving it!
@@hkkbbj8350 - He's like the car version of Bob Ross, isn't he!
This is wonderful mechanics work on a magnificent engine! Also, I think the S6/S8 is one of the few cars that really is worth the high ownership costs if you have a great mechanic like the Wizard! RS6, the V10 cars (S6, S8, M5, M6), the Alpina B7, and a variety of other cars just have such special engines that make them so much better to drive than the other engines in the platforms.
So totally agree. S85 gets compliments from everyone who's had a ride along. Such acceleration and the sound!
N73 v12 can be revved and yet a coin will stay standing on the engine cover it is so sweet.
I wish I had the Wizard's shop around the corner.
Amazon also has the BG products! As a mechanic, I so appreciate you sharing your experiences. I personally drive an Audi A8l 4.2 and a few weeks ago it started leaking oil and it has been crazy so much so I'm considering dropping the subfame and motor to just change all the gaskets and hoses since I have 300k on it. Congrats to you and the Mrs. on the 250K subscribers... I'm sharing every chance I get to help get you guys to, 1 million...
I'm really enjoying these videos, you explain things so clearly, and it's obvious you're a serious thinker when it comes to problem solving and advising your customers on their options. Also, congrats on 250k subscribers!!!
I regret selling mine, I would legit buy another one of these in a heartbeat! Funnest daily ever!

Yeah, just give me a good old fashioned Ford OR Chevy carbureted OHV "V8", mechanical fuel pump and NO PCM!
Great video again. Love to see the partnership with you and Ms. Wizard. A great team!
Watching you work is actually quite relaxing.
Thanks for the great content, Wizard!
One of these days I’d like to meet my own mrs wizard type of girl! She’s one of the few good ones out there! Good job Dave you’re a hell of a team!
I spilled some of that BG stuff on me back when I worked for FCA, had a mix of chemical burn and rash for like 2 days.

I remember back in 96 when the first Boxster had just come out and a colleague absolutely wanted one even though he couldn't really afford it. So he went with a bare-bones version with virtually no options. Smallest rims, no leather, etc. I remember sitting in that car, having to suppress laughter because instead of a radio, it had a "blanking-off" piece of plastic in the dash. In a Porsche.
Congratulations on 252K subscribers!!! Really enjoyed this look inside the Audi's engine and the fix for it.
Thanks for the concise video on decarboning. Having Mrs Wizard being more interactive. I believe make your videos better.
She tries to celebrate, wizard says "anyway" and gets back to work. Haha. Congrats.
He's not in it for the subscriber count.
Legend has it: When the Car Wizard goes to donate blood, he declines the syringe, and instead requests a hand gun and a bucket.
Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Wizard for all that you do!
Very interesting video! Thank you for taking the time to explain this process in such a detailed manner. Good stuff!
"30 years without a radio"
it wasn't needed due to the engine music.
Also I'm betting it was about a 5K option for ferrari to go install a basic $100 Apline HU. I hope Hoovie spent some cash and got a proper setup.

My man got his stimulus check 🤣🤣🤣
Id be throwing money at my truck if i didnt get claimed as a fuckimg dependant for 2019. Shity thing is I PAYED TAXES FROM MY EARNINGS AND DONT QUALIFY JUST BECAUSE MY MOM CLAIMED ME. I lived on my own too but had to move back with my mom after losing my job and wont ever see $1200 OR the $500 for children because im 20 and dont count. So whatever happened to “everyone is entitled to a check”?
bruh you have no idea how real that might be. Being stuck on this car when you need to save money, and putting off issues until your earnings come back... but if you have an opportunity to make the car right so you can sell it right, you better believe he's pullin' the trigger with the Wizard!
Car Wizard and Mrs. Wizard, thanks for the reasoned explanation on DI intake valve cleaning and it's necessity, due to the short sightedness of the manufacturer. I used the manual method of cleaning the intake valves on my Ford Focus ST, due to concerns about the chemicals in the chemical method possibly harming the seals and bearings on the turbo. Ordered the brush set from Amazon, bent a few smaller brushes to make sure I could reach the back of the valve stem, then started brushing away. After covering the open ports and blowing out each intake runner, even with a wet rag held in place, there was carbon EVERYWHERE. Thanks for the instructional video and measured and motivating explanation of the process.
i hope he never changes this style...its just too relaxing to watch. reminds you of a father teaching his son
Wow mrs wizard just gave me a brilliant idea" use oven cleaner" I will research on chemical compounds of each.
EKK gm had a product Kleens combustion chamber cleaner not sure it’s still available. Kleens contained olic acid ,ammonia , some hydro carbons it worked super well .Other manufactures make a similar products check for olic acid ,and ammonia .. I did my 2006 2.8 cts what a difference I bought the car cheap but it spent its life in Florida and was in mint condition but super carboned up. Just did my recent purchase 2006 gxp 5.3 and ran rislone and some wynns engine tune up in the oil combustion cleaner on the valves and pistons . No 5.3 tick on start up now run nice and smooth
Oven cleaner is for ovens!
The intros crack me up. It's like old PBS Masterpiece Theater episodes where a guy reading a book acts like he didn't notice he was in a studio with enormous lights, cameras, and a crew. Car Wizard is so enmeshed in his work, he doesn't notice the camera!
Watching in London England really enjoy your work and congratulations on a well quarter of a million subscribers 👏👏👏
I really like this channel! So calm, so much knowledge and nice coop with mss Wizard!
@14:30--Mrs Wizard: "Kinda like Oven Cleaner"
Wizard: "I wouldn't know about that. That's Women's Work!"
Funeral Services for Wizard are this weekend.
That's not what he said, nice try.
@@stephentrout7879--OK, Karen.
Wizard should be wearing a respirator. When blowing out the ports, you're atomizing the solvent which can dissolve carbon build up. Walnut shells would be more ecological.
I think the profession of mechanics is way underestimated & under-appreciated
after watching how professional mechanics like the wizard deal with mind bending complex car problems and providing unbelievable solutions I think this profession should be regulated like all other professions doctors, that require a license to practice similar to doctors, engineers, lawyers, etc.
I built a walnut blaster from watching a CZcams video for like $25 to do a friends VW 2.0FSI. It was a $10 Harbor Freight blow gun kit, an S shaped radiator hose, and a used water bottle. Worked like a charm. Intake valves looked brand new. I already had the air compressor and a shop vac though. Was way faster than this method.
And that is a problem of direct injunction engines. :( cool video and I have subscribed to ur channel.
I would love the chance to put a radio in a car like that.
Auto tech here, own a few Audi’s my self, done this method before, but also found a really nice method with same results, and a little less manual labor, on my s8 used the same chemical and used the same brush kit. Thought I’d try something as I was doing it, I put 5-6 zip ties together tape them to where the ends are softer, cut the tops, and put in my battery drill, does an amazing job with zero damage and less manual scrubbing, spin slow and move around the valve,
Great video! I was just mulling over the idea of doing this on my 2013 A4 while I'm stuck at home and this video has made me a lot more confident to take the job on!
5:35 "You will not be able to find this at O'Reillys" right after I was shoved an O'Reilly ad to my face...
A good oven cleaner and brake/clutch cleaner will have the same effect. Oven cleaner is mostly the same decarbonising chemical product. Good video though!
I was wondering about oven cleaner.
@@newttella1043 I've used oven cleaner on volvos and the newer tfsi engines from the VAG group
Yea but oven cleaner is more effective when heated.
The magic solution is pure toluene :-) it desolves all kind of carbons like asphalt and other bitumen stuff in a short time.
That Dollar Tree oven cleaner works like magic for de-greasing, I've probably never used one that was so effective. Better wear a mask tho because that stuff is rough if you accidentally breathe it in
I loved hearing that you do not charge for the soaking time. Thats all I need to here that you are very honest and have good values as a human being. I run my shop the same way. 19 yrs and still going with repeat business word of mouth and return customers and i run my live bench camera when i am working on my bench. I`m the ONLY shop in the world that does it which really surprises me. But I`m glad I do it is a gold mine to me
I really like using this method. I’ve done one on a Lexus 250 but I let it sit over night and I was able to easily vacuum everything out. This is a great video of good this method works. Thanks for sharing.
Wonder where they suddenly found $4k 😂 Wouldn't be unreasonable if you cut them a deal for using their car for content 😉
Seems like that would be common sense. Lol
He didnt replace intake manifold for 2k or replace injectors etc
When the wizard said he called back the next day, I wondered “stimulus check?”.
Trump stimulus package? maybe...
.... in fairness what else should we spend our money on, when I think back to te money I've SPUNKED off on the cars I've owned never mind a car with THAT ENGINE.
Would love to see a list of used cars recommend by the Wizzard!!
He has a big series on this. Look for "Buy This, Not That."
Any car that you can afford to pay him to fix is a good car.
Decent guys like you make the world a better place. Thank you
Congratulations on 250k subscribers car wizard. Your videos have been informative since the beginning!
My Uncle has a S6. He's currently cleaning the manifold from the carbon
I have an old chevrolet going on 300k and I have never had to do this...why do ppl buy this garbage?
@@stevenreynolds2327 because your old chevy doesn't sound like a v10 or have 500hp
@@stevenreynolds2327 It's a direct injection thing. The old Chevy has indirect injection, whereby the fuel is injected above the intake valves, keeping them clean. Newer DI cars have an auxiliary injector above the valves to keep them clean, but older DI vehicles do this, regardless of manufacturer.
Wow that carbon should be manifold free when he's done 🤔
@@johnbean2596 uh, its an 8.1 ltr and will do just about anything I ask of it. My sound comes from a hell of a system. Probably paid less for the whole package than this guys bill is going to be.

Strange how you said ‘bonnet’ wizard,that’s a Uk term, thought you would have said ‘hood’, but bonnet is correct 👍
Now you've done it.Someday soon there's going to be Hoovie wearing a Bonnet as he looks under the Rolls,or Bentley hood.
This car has been on my radar for the last 2 yrs (V10) after watching this I can't imagine spending this type of $ on repairs. Totally scratching this off the list
Rob Christian I had one and the supercharged A6 in the same body style. After 130k they are endless, I did most of the work myself, it the front end suspension needed rebuilt every 60k miles because the engine hangs so far over the front axle, and parts were $2k without struts. But it drove better than any sedan I’ve had. I would consider another S6 V10, but I would set aside $6k for immediate maintenance and at least $3k a year for subsequent maintenance.
I’d look at S4/S5. The V8 ones can have some problems but the supercharged v6 are very solid and you can push some healthy horsepower.
No need to run from these cars. Disconnect PCV from intake and route it to a catch can. The carbon is oil vapour that's been fed through the intake and subsequently been roasted by the engine heat
@@arjnarersn01 My A6 had the supercharged 3.0T. It was a good motor, but not without fault. I had to address the timing chain tension issue, lucky I found a local shop that tried and did it without the VW suggested method of pulling the engine out. I also had a PCV valve, or whatever VW call that $250 dollar system, which requires removing the supercharger. While you have that off, replace the thermostat, coolant temp gauge, and vacuum lines in there. Not impossible, but it took me 2 weekends and about $400 in all. The hardest part is getting all the belts off. But yes, I would rather have a 3.0T than a 2.0T and it can push 400hp pretty easy because if I'm going to do the maintenance and repairs, I would rather have the supercharged torque curve and additional power.
Good, leave it for people who can appreciate it and have a bargain.
Glad to see your channel is growing!
Mrs Wizard for the win here, you can use the expanding foam type oven cleaner to great effect here. In the UK we have a product called Mr Muscle that can be used to clean valve stems, egr valve and even variable vane turbos. You just spray it in and watch it expand into all the crevices. Leave it for half hour and clean out and you're good to go, it's about 10 bucks a can.
100%, foaming oven cleaner is works great for this. I use it to clean baked on oil and carbon off engine parts regularly. It's caustic so you can't leave it on alu parts for too long or they will corrode but it works like nothing else.
I suspect Ferrari want you to listen to the engine note, not to a radio.
except when you want to listen to the radio.
A spot of Verdi or Puccini goes very well with that engine note.
@@mts982 horrible idea
@@agenericaccount3935 Im assuming you guys arent ferrari owners, yet an actual ferrari owner is putting a radio in HIS ferrari, so i will take the direction that an actual ferrari owner is going and say, putting a radio in a ferrari is a good thing, because it sounds like not having a radio in a ferrari is a bore after a while.
It was not unusual for Ferrari to leave the radio out because many of their customers would remove a stock radio and replace it anyway. I remember reading about that in car magazines when I was a kid.
Wizard, would there be any carbon deposits on the exhaust valves?
No.
The fuel additives would take care of that, just be sure to use Shell "V-Power" gas!
@@TheOzthewiz It’s direct injected. The fuel never touches the valves. That’s why they carbon up.
very common problem with direct injection ive only seen it ran through the fuel injection system but your technique makes the valves look brand new props to you car wizard
Congratulations! Always informative and entertaining, thank you. Take care over there.
