  • Today I'm visiting Ricky at ‪@REPerformanceUK‬the renowned R8 and Lamborghini specialist - to talk engines. We're looking at the 5L that you'll find in early Gallardos like mine, and seeing just how different it is to an Audi 5.2L V10, like you'd find in the R8 or the Gallardo LP560

      I think the engine is actually made in Hungary and final assembly is done at neckersulm, but has always been an Audi engine. Jayemm did a vid recently on the differences and history. Well worth a watch.

    Huracan and G2 R8 bodies are built in Audi Sport’s Böllinger Höfe plant (Heilbronn)
    Both vehicles are painted at the Audi Neckarsulm plant.
    G2 R8 has final assembly back at Böllinger Höfe, Huracan’s final assembly is in Italy. (Sant’Agata)
    Engines for these cars are built in Audi’s Györ plant in Hungary.

      Oh it's worse than that. Catalytic converters kill engines in all good ways.
      One should always get in their car and drive it, but you see people start their car, let it sit for ten minutes etc. WRONG. Lots of fuel dilution to get cat heated up, bore wash and you're done. Get in car. Start car. Put seatbelt on. Drive. When engine and oil are warm, give it some.

The running costs, for R8's at least, is definitely not too frightening for regular stuff and a level below the likes of many others.

      ​@@th3b0untyhunter Your comment was unnecessarily dismissive and not in the least bit constructive. I doubt the engine rebuilds in which this man plies his trade will be the worse for a few dropped Ts. This comment section is overwhelmingly positive towards Ricky's ability to deliver information clearly and in an interesting manner, so you misfired there as well. Even this mini-thread, in which you posted your hand-wringing whinge, started with a complimentary comparison to the great Iain Tyrrell. It has only just dawned on me that you might indeed be Iain Tyrrell and that you are not OK with the comparison, hence your stance. If that is the case, I take it all back. However, I doubt Iain would refer to his own intelligence and then misspell criticising. As you will not be replying, I will simply wish you well and hope that you can find some peace and tranquility to enjoy the simple things and cease the hunt for the negative in everything you experience. Be well, be safe and have wonderful rest of your day.

      Replying to my own comment here just in case my reference to "boring expert" was misinterpreted.

With regret, I realize that my first comment should have been, "Ironically you are both experts in boring, though in completely different fields".

    This video makes me sad. I loved it, don’t get me wrong but in an age of smartphones and snap crap, will we continue to get obvious experts in their fields like Ricky here in the future? When modern mechanics start and finish with what a computer tells them is wrong, is the art of “actually knowing what you’re talking about” actually lost? Having just been through an incurable engine problem with BMW which resulted in them installing a brand new engine in my M5, I wonder whether it would have been salvageable if someone like Ricky had cast their eye over it? Great content either way, I could listen to him all day chatting about stuff I just don’t understand but fascinates me regardless.

      No, RS6 have the turbos between them and the cats. S6/S8 the cars are further downstream but mainly all utilise better materials.

    This video will be shared to thousands of YT vids of dudes claiming their Audi has a lambo engine 🤣

    James, the only question now is, are you more or less scared after Ricky’s explanation? 😅

    Yeah a nice talk. 100% guaranteed that I'd never own one on the basis of his chat though.
    I'm trying to gauge what pub ammo will come from this as people who own them, but don't drive them, try to make theirs better.
    I think we'll get the '5.0 is the better sounding engine and because of the split pin crank has better balance...'
    I 100% disagree with him about the occasion. I understand what he's on about, but nothing p*sses you off more than going to take advantage of the rare nice days in the UK, then your car breaks meaning your day is wasted, you've got an incoming bill looming, if there is another nice day, you're car won't be ready, and then you are always conscious of driving it so you don't...
    One other thing - A good oil...
    If anyone can show me how they know an oil is good beyond the tests that the manufacturers do on them, I have money waiting for you :)

    Very interesting here in this guy I'm just hearing that Audi are not as great at engineering as anyone thinks they are. Do McLaren or any Japanese manufacturers have these issues? Like to hear about the early gearbox blowing up on them as well?

      We work on many supercars and they all have their own little issues. The engines in the Gallardo are strong, most issues we see are bore damage from cat material. Oerlikon build the boxes in Ferrari, McLaren, R8 and Lambo and they have issues. 488’s have engine oil leaks, McLarens break timing variators.
      But in our trade, we only ever see problems! No one ever comes to REP for a brew with no car troubles! Lol
