Here's Everything That's WRONG With My CHEAP Audi A4 (It's Bad)

- I bought ANOTHER cheap Audi, this time a 2010 Audi B8 A4. It cranks but won't start. Today we're going to dig in and find out why it won't start, and if the valves are destroyed from being out of time.

I’m actually surprised with the amount of videos you put out you don’t have a million subscribers. I’m sure one day you will.
it's quality vs quantity type of deal.
@@vadim7590JR's videos are quality too
Low compression in all cylinders indicate a timing issue. Ol old shade-tree mechanic trick is, when getting a low compression reading, is to squirt a little oil into the cylinder and run the test again. If the compression stays low its a valve problem. If it jumps up towards normal it a ring problem.
Congratulations man on 400k!! I have been watching you for years now and have loved watching your channel grow.
Congratulations for reaching that 400K milestone JR - roll on 500K!
Two of my happiest days... the day I bought my wife her A6 and day we sold it!!! Thanks for the shout out and love the videos JR!
What year was your A6 and which engine did it have?
@@davidbenji1 It was a 2006 with the V6
@radiodave1 I was thinking it might be an older A6. I've been driving my 2014 A6 Prestige TDI and it's been my favorite car ever. Although several Audi mechanics have told me to sell it before it starts having problems with the diesel systems. So I recently bought a 2018 Prestige A6 with the supercharged 3.0.
@@davidbenji1Thirsty engine
@@davidbenji1 supercharged 3.0T will last you awhile. They're as reliable as a German engine can get. 5k oil changes, be ready for waterpump, thermostat, and pcv whenever they break, and that's it.
You could hear it had barely any compression just by listening to it crank.
A cylinder leak down test should be the next easy step before digging into timing chains etc.
At least you'll know straight away if any of the valves aren't sealing, or if the rings/cylinders have any issues👍
The cheap Audi is a basket case? I'm shocked, SHOCKED! Well not that shocked.
Maybe a tiny bit shocked.
As an Audi owner myself, you don't buy one that has not been taken care of. And clearly, this car was abused. Shame on the previous owner.
I talked to Jonny earlier today... been a while. Glad I met you at his shop a few years back. It's been fun watching your channel grow.
If you get it running, run the cleaner from BG through it like you did on the camaro, it will free up those oil rings for you
It doesn't. These rings get gunked up like crazy and no amount of chemical cleaners will help. Only way to fix it is to install DM revision pistons with the waffle-weave oil control rings (Part# 06H-107-065-DM). Though since this is a pre-2012 car it will also need update connecting rods (Part# 06H-198-401-D) since the DM pistons use 23mm wrist pins while the pre-2012 use 21mm wrist pins.
Congrats on the 400,000 JR... I've been subscribed since you started your channel
400k. Let’s CRUSH it with an update on the crusher!!
CZcams's moneypit series are really good. That raises the awareness for consumers to stay away from certain brands and models are problematic.
Marvel isn't the way to go for cleaning carbon deposits and oil rings, it's just not aggressive enough for a piston soak. A BG oil flush/clean kit is probably the best bet, but if you don't want to devote that much time and money, I find that B12 Chemtool works amazing for cleaning up carbon deposits on pistons and rings (and it's cheap and easy to get)... It's what the Prius community uses because they also suffer from the clogged or stuck oil ring issue
Congratulations on 400K! Yeah! You deserve the accolades! Keep up the great work!

Hey you just hit 400K!!! Congratulations man!
congrats on 400k, the next 100k won't take that long! Awesome content like this keeps people coming back again and again.
I had a B6 Audi A4. The plastic hoses were all breaking. It also had blown turbo. Once it was properly fixed it was a fun car…..
Congratulations for the 400k subs, seems a life time, since I started watching your videos, long time ago.
Congrats on 400k! Been with you along the ride since October 2018!
Congratulations on 400 K ! I'm very surprised that your not at a Million!
You were the first channel I subscribed to !
Congratulations on reaching 400K subscribers, JR. Your channel is awesome and I think you deserve 1million plus. Keep up the amazing work.
Congratulations John... keep up the good work
Congratulations on 400k heres to the next 400k
Been here since like 50k subs. Glad tonsee you grow. You deserve more. One of the down to earth genuine youtubers out there. Congrata bro. Onto 1 mil
Another congratulations for 400k! Well earned and well deserved.
A big congratulations on your milestone of over 400k subscribers JR! I enjoy seeing the projects of all kinds on the channel, and it is a nice watch to start my day before work. I wonder what the service history is like on that A4. Best wishes!
Love the videos brother. It blows my mind all the stuff you do.
I had that car and it sucked bad. Burned oil, timing chain skipped, exhaust issues. Spent $4000 in the first few months owning it. I sold it at a loss and got a Corolla. Never looked back.
Exact same story here. Got rid of the Hyundai and got a Mazda. Never looked back.
Wow….you two guys gave up….😔
My bought new 10 A4 has 280k miles now :) hardly any issues.
Wise man. Dump any other brand, get a Toyota.
Same story.. Sold my A6 for a Lexus. Magnificent
I'm not a paying member but seriously mate , I love your work bro !! Appreciate all the escapism you've offered over the years. Please don't stop being you !
I love your videos you’re one of the few that there’s actually good problem solving in.
Congrats JR on 400k! I have a 2016 A6 with the same engine. Look forward to this.
Congrats on 400k!
Congrats on 400k, JR!
All the different projects are the reason we’re here, JR! Thanks for everything!
Congratulations on 400K subscribers!
Congrats!!! I’ve been here since you were thinking about quitting your day job if you got to 100k. I think it’s worked out well despite the decision being made for you. 🍻
Congrats on 400k JR!
Good Evening John Ross, I just got home from a week away that I had no internet connection so I am catching up on your videos.
Congrats 400 k
Congrats JR! I am still salty that you don't have 1M subscribers years ago, since your content is awesome!
Literally bought an 09 A4 2 0T 3 days ago and I’m trying to learn all I can about it. I promise I’ll be watching all your videos
Congratulations on reaching 400k subs John Ross, here's to hitting 500k!!!
So Eric....if you want to mess with JR randomly leave empty crushed drink cans around the garage. He will be forced to throw them away immediately, no matter what he is doing. 😊 The A6 should be a good one!
Congratulations on 400k.You been sticking around that 350 for a long time,hard work pays off😊
Congrats on 400k bro
🎉🎉congrats on 400k 🎉🎉
👍 congratulations on 400k
Congrats on 400K
"The list of compatibility for the timing set is mind blowing!"
*laughs in small block Chevy*
Um, this is a German car...so it is surprising in that respect. Nothing to do with the most compatible engine in the world. People.
@@jritechnology ok
*laughs in VW air-cooled flat four*
Congratulations on 400K! I'm actually surprised that it isn't much higher. You are way better than Hoovie or Scotty.
Do you do comp test wide open throttle and follow up with a wet test to confirm valves or rings just wondering i am old school.
Contragtulations JR, you earned the success. You make positive content and that helps.
Congrats on 400k, you still should reconsider the intro exit music cause it could be holding you back jack.
There's a fella on youtube called 'eurotrash motorsports'. He had one of these that was burning oil and had low compression. His sister had one with the same engine burning oil. He fixed both of them by piston soaking them both with Berrymans b12 for a couple of cycles. Maybe that'll help you on this one.
Congrats on the 400.
The Audi 2.0 turbo was a bit weak out of the factory. The previous generation 1.8 turbo was better when stock in my opinion.
However, this is the VAG , so you know that there's enough aftermarket support to build that 2.0 real strong.
SUBSCRIBE TO THIS CHANNEL! I love VGG, Pole Barn Garage , Junkyard Digs and the trash that they revive but it’s a crying shame that J. Ross doesn’t have 800,000 subs. This guy knows his stuff !
“We’re out of this joint” is so fitting with that car lol
Just a headsup with those engines, I have this same engine in the GTI and I noticed your Spark plugs being fouled up. I strongly suggest you change the PCV valve ( Or possibly the whole system its inexpensive ) Mine went bad at same time as timing chains and blew out the rear main seal. Also to note when you showed the Valves on camera I noticed the carbon build up. Its a clear sign this engine has had bad oil change intervals and run in cheap regular gas. These engines require 91 and above. Mine runs on 93 and has a stage 2 tune and makes just shy of 300hp
I did timing chains on mine and I also did NGK spark plugs and R8 Coil packs
If you're doing the crank/cam chains and guides, I'd recommend also doing the balance shaft chain and guides. Its not talked about as much, but the balance shaft chains do stretch as well so it doesn't hurt to replace them while you're in there. Also if this car hasn't already, make sure you get the updated timing chain tensioner (Part# 06K-109-467-K) (though if its made it this long I imagine it was replaced while the lawsuit warranty period was still active).
Congrats Johny on 400k subscribers and keep up the good work!
A4 is vw Passat, A3 is based on vw golf/jetta...don't know if you have A3 in USA
Congratulations on reaching 400k
JR, you should explain about this CZcams membership thing. I’ve been watching and been a sub for quite awhile and I did not know that “membership” was even a thing.
like number 710 - check the oil cap 😂
Thanks and happy 400k! - Bret
400K - well done sir!
OBSERVATION it amazes me how year after year car manufacturers cant fix the problems in cars or produce a car that doesnt have a myriad of issues. If they do produce a decent car, they then change its design or change the engine or manufacturing process that continues the plague of broken unreliable cars. Whats also amazing is that these manufacturers build and test race cars.
They should learn from Japanese. Refining products years after years.
It almost makes you think they do it on purpose.
How the hell are you only at 400k.. you should have way more. Congrats bro..
Lets have a few videos on that beautiful Camaro you have sitting around.Also congratulations on reaching 400000.
2.0T usually bend the valves when they go out of time. I have two that someone replaced the timing set and the valves were bent and decided to stitch the car.
any update on the mini resort or boat?
WooHoo! 400k!
JR, most vw-audi diagnostic scanners can tell you cam timing deviation. I used obdeleven to diagnose the timing chain was out -5.1 which meant I was driving on borrowed time.
Congratulations on your 400k
400k, brother! 🍻
Hi Steve! JRGO says you know a lot about Audis. I’ve been dealing with multiple misfires on a 2012 Audi S4 over the past four months. Tried everything. VW and Audi can’t figure it out… maybe you can? Send me a chat if you’re up for a pop quiz. Thx!
Jrgo... seriously... how you know so much about Car's? Nomatter if they Run or not.. you know why & can make them run.. i been subscribe to this channel. Because I ❤❤❤❤❤ Cars..😆
Link to the timing kit? Mines is due on my 2011 A4 wagon
I was wrong... but that is definitely good having low comp on all cylinders. Lucky the valves did not hit the pistons but do you think there might have been some coolant in those cylinders cleaning the pistons a bit...?
Congrats on the 400k subs... still don't know why you don't have 1.4 mil subs.
In the clean cylinder? It’s possible that’s what’s going on, smelled like a bit of fuel though so I thought it might be a sticking injector 😳
8:47 please do a carbon clean out for the home mechanic to repeat.
Could the carbon be keeping the valves open?
These engines will show low compression if the carbon is out of control because it keeps the valves from fully sealing. Would definitely consider pulling the intake manifold in addition to the timing job it probably also needs. Congrats on 400k!
J.R. I've been here on your channel.since you started and I never miss a video. The only question I have did you ever finish that little John Deere loader when you first started because that was one my favorite projects you have done. But I was just wondering if there was a play list on the Deere. Thanks for the great videos, keep up the great work love your content. You need yo buy another dozer like the Deere of some old farm tractor. Just to change up some stuff on your channel. There is some pretty income selling one when you get finish. Like I said just a thought but still think it would be coo to work on that had no computer stuff to read codes and things because there isn't any of that stuff. Just something different.
If its out of time the compression check is irrelivent, the valves will be open when they shouldn't be so you will get a bad reading, there is a slight amount of wiggle room as far as how off before they hit pistons but they could still be open during the test.
I subscribed a long, long time ago. I think you were still under 200K subscribers when I subscribed.
you can go for retrofit, for b8.5 I think. there is alot conversion kit selling out there
I had one of these FWD A4s as a company car. The main problem I had was just knowing that the engine was down-rated from what goes into the Quattro models. Otherwise, it was an enjoyable car for the 3-year lease. Best part was I had zero financial responsibility for it!
Congrats on 400K subs. Why not give us all an hour of you just following your Dad around
Congrats on 400 k subscribers!
How the lake house project been doing lately
I mean, worst case scenario an entire new engine for it from Alibaba is like 1900$ and apparently they work well, lol
The Audi that I find interesting, is the Audi TT with the baseball glove leather interior!
The rarest mk1 TT is the Quattro Sport of 2005, limited to 800 units.
