      I am working on this but on my 3.0 tdi, currently working on the media upgrade and retrofitting all sensors. But hella expensive to get audi to calibrate and confirm proper installation so it can go through the danish car review (don't want to have the police stop me and force me to remove it all xD) Also remember to get it remapped when you've done all the exhaust modding etc. Otherwise you're gonna either lose performance or abuse the turbo.

      @@sasagrcevic475 Disagree bro, wrapping a car gives you the option to go back to stock should you wish to do so. Good luck selling a purple painted car compared to a factory white, grey or black car. Cheap wraps always look dog shit but having someone wrap the car who knows what they are doing often has better results than what some paint shops offer

    Looking to get a 2019 audi a5 sport back? Do you think it would be a good choice or would I spend more than child support on repairs

    15 months ago I bought a 2011 S5 Cabriolet with only 55K miles on it. The car was pristine and had several upgrades such as a German racing suspension, Vossen rims ($4K) and a stage 1 custom tuning program. I enjoyed (loved) the car for a total of 1702 miles . Witrhout warning while driving on a 4 lane freeway The car shut down giving me a few warning lights which indicated the problem was with the electronic management system (not sure of the exact name). I managed to drive it the 10 miles to my home by using the paddle shifters and going very slow. The next day I had it towed to a garage owned by a guy who is an expert on German vehicles. The mechanic concluded that both catalytic converters essentially had melted (the lining inside). Straight pipes were installed, he test drove it and stated it was good to go. My wife and daughter picked up the car on a Friday and had planned to drive it about 300 miles to our cottage (I was down with Covid). The made it roughly 35 miles before calling me in a panic telling me the car stopped abruptly and would not turn over . Another tow truck charge to collect it and have it brought back to the mechanic.
    About 2 days later I received the bad news: The engine had seized with 2 pistons looking as if they had "grown" in size compared to normal.
    It turned out that the previous owner, who had babied the car since purchasing it decided to modify the pully crank at the time he had it tuned and installed a crank that was over double the size of the stock one!. The shop who did the work warned him several times that he needed to ensure the engine had proper cooling after this modification.....which he ignored. When I bought the vehicle I paid the dealer (he has since closed shop and gone bankrupt) for a 28 point inspection which included a detailed engine check, and told me the car was 10/10 both mechanically and aesthetically.
    I was left with 2 choices : 1. part the car out, which would at best cover 1/2 of what I paid, or 2. find a replacement engine and dole out a stack of cash - replacement engine, shipping, and 35+ hours of labour to have it prepped, installed and tested.
    I some how persuaded my wife that option 2 was the best option. It took me a month and a half to source a replacement engine which had a mileage that was close to the odometer reading on the car.
    My anger and frustration had grown to a level where I was hellbent on suing the dealer however to my dissapointment I learned that Canadian consumer laws makes it virtually impossible to win a case such as mine.
    Fast forward till today, I have a 2011 S5 Convertible that looks like it just rolled off the line and drives like a dream....I ended up bleeding 80% additional on top of what I bought it for to get it repaired.
    The Pully crank produced an unbelieveable amount of heat without any additional modirfications to ensure the engine had a chance to cool . It was only a matter of time before disaster as I had no clue ( lack of knowledge and mechanical skill) this was happening....

    Wow Wow Wow Respect!!!
    I have rs5 restyling the same year. Now I also want to make body kits! And please answer, for such a motor sound like hellcat, did you just install a new air filter? What changes in the engine were there for such a sound as a supercharger

    • @KevG
      @KevG  Před rokem

      At the point of the install, I just had a stage 1 tune and the intake. Exhaust as well but the intake opens it up and gets that whine to be a lot louder. Hope that helps!

    Facelift taillights really changed the car more than anything else, u could have all those parts on and the old LEDs and it would look so much more dated. 10/10 from a bmw guy
