Ayyy back with the TFSI's, bought my first GTI due to your videos, mine died 3 months after having it. But I'm nearly finishing an engine swap with a CDL & Venom 450!
First video I’ve seen from you and really enjoyed it 👍👍 I usually watch ccd Calvin’s car diary but your vids are way more in-depth which is great plus you sound like an honest guy Keep um coming
Little tip with that dirko sealant, theres a little key looking tool that comes with it, pop it on the bottom of the tube and twist and it flows much smoother and allows you to be more consistent with it
Bought a 1.8 TFSI Black edition last month, got an oil pressure warning and started sounding like a bag of shit, the oil pump is probably about to fail. Turned the car off and left it with the dealership I bought it from to sort it. They gave it back to me after just changing an oil filter, i refused to take it back since it still sounded like a bag of shit and now I’m in legal battles lol. Fun times.
Great to see some S3 8p content, as a owner of a R-Tech stage 2+ S3. Can't wait to see the journey of this car Also can't wait to see the lads at R-Tech on your channel again, love their work👌🏾
Unlucky for you on this one mate 😢 Hopefully it’s not damaged to much, at least you’ll get some extra content out of her. Cheers Hamza have a good wknd
Re: applying new sealant, I'd recommend Victor Reinz Reinzosil - even the normal 'tube' comes with a metal tool allowing you to roll the end of the tube to get a consistent bead.
Really enjoy your content. I own a 06 A4 Avant and a 10 535i, while my collection isnt the same, your experiences keep me on my toes about the models I have.
Genuinely gutted for you mate! 😔 Don't get me wrong, I can't wait for the repair content on it, but still it's such bad luck. I've the CDL in my cupra R, and although it runs sweet, I always think each journey could be it's last 😂🙈
@@TRHamza your so welcome. One of my top favourite channels . And I love cars too ❤️ I'd love to see you Do a project TDI diesel car at some point. I have a 2008 VW Passat 1.9 TDI with hybrid turbo and many mods mapped to 180 and 420 nms torque
Had bought my first S38P at 20yo...was so happy that i finally have bought my dream car because in Greece it still costs around 15-18k for a decent one. Had it done stage 1 within the first week, after 5 months car died same way as yours and guess what, oil pump. No warnings, no nothing, i was doing some pulls and suddenly it started rattling and same time the oil pressure light came up... hopefully now with my TTS CDL engine wont have same issues :P
Mate I swear I had saw this video title recently and I was like questioning myself if I was in fact going mental and thinking I’ve saw what didn’t exist. But now I feel sane. Thanks hamza. Gunna crack on and watch it now! You been around the cheylesmore area of cov recently? Was up there seeing family and swear I saw the m5 on one of the ring roads.
@@TRHamza 😂😂😂 yes I knew it was you, I saw a glimpse of the reg plate but you shot off and the misses mighty 1.6tdi polo wasn’t catching up at all. I’ve just started my own mk5 gti high mileage (175k) K04 hybrid build, purely inspired by your stuff from ages ago. Took me a while to pull my wallet out and get my ass out to my garage.
Might have to invest in one of those VAG electrical connector removal tools, do much better than breaking my fingers trying to unclip them! Where do you even get ones from? 🤣
Oil pump failed and bottom end done i rekon had same with a cupra and an a3 1.8t. If you changed the oil pump and bottom end bearings u would have been ok i think maybe who knows least itll come back from rtech strong IA 💪
I had audi a3 1.6 petrol 2005. Man that thing was total junk. Having spent silly money on it, i bought a suzuki liana estate 04 from a scrap yard. Paid £230 for it and spent around 130 for a suspension arm and a new bolt for exhaust and passed mot no issues. Had it 6 years now 184k miles, i thrashed its bolts off and still runs mint. Only ever asked me for clutch and thermostat.
That oil pick up seal looked not that old, do you think that the previous owner had the oil pressure issue and then just replaced the pick up but then the issue was still there so they sold up?
@@TRHamza ahhh the old “it’s a sound car in the day I’ve had it but I only took it px so…” 🤷♂️😂 hope it’s not too bad for you bro. Your the first RUclipsr out of the 20-25 I watch that I’m going to sub to patreon 👍🏻 brownie points for hamza haha.
My old 8P had a few pickup pipe blockage issues leading to pressure but it survived everytime. Happened on the first day I got it at 30k miles, nearly 200k on it by the time I sold it
Boys! When buying one of these S3's or A3's alike with the intention of driving hard. I suggest you add a freewheel to the Balance shaft. Reason why: The balance shaft rotates at twice the RPM of the engine in the opposite direction of the crankshaft in order to reduce engine vibration. Problem is: The max engine RPM is 8,000 RPM the max RPM for the Balance Shaft is 14,000 RPM. If you slap the rev limiter constantly it WILL explode.
Never squeeze sealant from middle of tube ,you don't get a proper release of the sealant always squeeze from bottom then fold over bottom of tube as you apply less wastage plus the tube doesn't look and mangled 🙄
i just bought a a3 tfsi and it has so many issues with the engine, tempted to get my money back tbh. i gave iot a boot full and had the same oil pressure light as you, turnt it off anf back on again and it went away, so drove home slowly and was fine. the oil pickup has been done in 2016 but i guess maybe it needs doing again idk.... also rattles when you start it up which i thought was cam chain but that has been dne in 2020 so i dont think its that...
Where can i find the oil pickup pipe, im from The Netherlands and i cant find it anywhere here, i have a Golf 5 GTI EDITION 30 2008, and i want to change the oil pickup pipe ASAP, if someone could send me a link for the part i would appreciate it.

Love this model S3
Just found out about this channel! Loving the content! 💪🏼 keep it coming!! Greetings from Holland!
Thanks man! 🙌🏼
These were amazing cars for the time.
I took the BAM (mk1 s3) engine out and put it in my mk2 golf.
Mapped it from 225 to 280. Amazing.
This js not a 1.8 20vt bam engine. Its a 2.0 tfsi engine. The 1.8 20vt engines are alot better in my opinion.

Not seen your channel in few yrs...camera work n content ecellent lad👍👍👍
Looking forward for this one 👌
So laid back, even when the engine or gearbox blows!
It’s not like he’s stuck without a motor the next day 😂
Content
When you have enough money to drop 4k on an old high performance audi which may blow up at any minute you dont care as much.
Wow! Didn't realise you were such a mechanic! Same engine as my 2010 Cupra, so was really interesting (even the engine cover is the same)
Loved it bro 👊🏻
Good bloke you hamza, love the content 👍

Very good content my brother, keep it up- both entertaining and educational 💯 Mashallah.
Love the content mate!!! Btw any places to recommend for food around brum? Keep up the hard work mate
The VOLVO!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love it when you do DIY jobs.
thumbs up on the steps.
Good old R-tech, look forward to the next video. Good luck with the Patron
Great content 👌 sorry about the bad times 😫
Bonus T5 content, love it. What a workhorse.
Great video pal. Keep them coming 👍

Your garden looks like a Tesco car park honestly, would be great to have a look round
Moral of the story if you buy any audi between 2005 and 2008 you need to change the oil pump before it's gone. IT goes for both diesel and petrol
His insurance absolutely loves him, they can charge him the highest rates known to man!
Very very common issue if the oil pick up pipe isn't regularly cleaned. Vis balance shaft delete was the best prevention method for mine
Seen s3 knew it’s gonna be a bang
Hamza I think you need to get Nazar Dam done 😭😂 your luck with cars is special to say the least hahahah

Yeah it went up for 10 mins but in that time majority couldn’t view it. So I had to reupload. And might have passed by before the clutch went 😂

Jheez bro u definitely no your stuff 👏🏾👏🏾
With the manual it’s perfect for an interesting swap like a rs3/07k or even a vr6 that might even go viral up here
check your VVT gear! my gear went and it felt like i bent a valve! I was on it and it went limp into a heavy boost cut. mk5 gti owner!
Love the start.of the video of the volvo towing the audi. Volvo the workhorse of the stable😅😅
Interiors on these look really old now but exteriors timeless!
That oil pressure issue is a weird one TR, like you said it could be oil pump failure but would be interesting to find out more. 😁🚙🏁
Great content dude thanks
Thank you 👊🏼
Where did you get your quick jacks from look so much more easier than jacking up the car
Can’t wait for the m5 to get back on the road
Same age as mine...can't believe its done an engine .... usually bullet proof 😮
Bulletproof? Hardly
If you haven’t got an OBD11 it would be good to have. Or VCDS. Just so you can log/check components.
Ah shame about the car but looking forward how this unfolds 👍

You’re slowly turning into hoovies garage 😂
When you gonna build a big garage for you to work in on that concrete pad you got.

The Turbo on these is very sensitive to the grade of oil used
Hope the engine isn't complete toast 😢 Looking forward to the next installment 💪🏻
Scared to drive my BWA now 🙁
No pressure 😂

what happened to the type r?
Damn more cars than a dealership
Never squeeze sealant from middle of tube ,you don't get a proper release of the sealant always squeeze from bottom then fold over bottom of tube as you apply less wastage plus the tube doesn't look and mangled 🙄
Welcome to the 2.0TFSI life lol
Mhhh hindsight i know...but should have done ea new oil pump as well since this thing gave the impression "maintenance" never done, 3rd hand ownership
Best shaped S3 ever made
A certain speed 🤣
Did u do a car vertical on it?
i just bought a a3 tfsi and it has so many issues with the engine, tempted to get my money back tbh. i gave iot a boot full and had the same oil pressure light as you, turnt it off anf back on again and it went away, so drove home slowly and was fine. the oil pickup has been done in 2016 but i guess maybe it needs doing again idk.... also rattles when you start it up which i thought was cam chain but that has been dne in 2020 so i dont think its that...
Mate oil pick up pipes should be cleaned every other year especially if mapped or by that point delete the balance shaft to avoid this issue
If it’s 1.4 it’s the cam chain again, very very common.
you need to modify the oil bomb when the car is tuned
Didn't these come with a MFSW? Shame considering it's got xenons as well
Damn that oil filter has quite a lot metallic bits
Just an audi thing. My BAM1.8t 225 TT did the same thing... 4 times...
Where can i find the oil pickup pipe, im from The Netherlands and i cant find it anywhere here, i have a Golf 5 GTI EDITION 30 2008, and i want to change the oil pickup pipe ASAP, if someone could send me a link for the part i would appreciate it.
Any update on the M5?
Same thing happened to my A3.
Judging by the old oil looking that rough, I bet the oil pump is clogged and that'll be the problem.... shame really
That’s what you get for buying a nail 😅🤷🏻♂️👍
Nice s3
a drill might save your arms if there's a load of screws to come out.
