Yeesss mate, great vid, Ash is defo getting more comfortable on camera and you can clearly see you boys are having a laugh…keep plugging away boys, the channel will blow up for yas 💪🏼
So happy you bought this car back....I just passed the 14 yr mark with mine and while many cars are faster (including my daily which is a new S4), the RS is all about the driving experience which I absolutely love. For your washer fluid, check the connections behind the front bumper for the headlight washers....Its a frequent spot for leaks.. Also just use plain washer fluid...Here in the US, some of the specialty ones (Rain-X) can cause issues.
Happy new year Ben, driving round in top gear at about 1300 rpm is due to the low end torque, brilliant engine glad to see the RS4 back on the channel 👍
People are so hung up on high milage vehicle's in this country. When you look at the states, they have vehicle's over 250k miles, I've even seen vehicle's on videos with 1 million miles on them! Keeping up with maintenance is the key, just simply changing the oil and filters once, to twice a year makes all the difference.
The a/c pressure valves are easy to change and no regas required. If I remember it's fiddly to get to without removing the bumper. A faulty rad fan will also stop the a/c working on these.
Check the washer pumps for the xenon jets. One situated on the side of the washer main tank and there is one on each side of the xenon’s. When I had my B5 S4 the pumps leak when the cold weather comes as they expand and crack usually because of wrong fluids.
Great content lads, I have had the Continental SportContact 7 on my B7 RS4 for the last year and I'm very happy with them. I'm looking forward to the Secondary Air Injection video as I'd like to it to mine.
All ways good to see a B7 video ,been folowing since you bought that bad boy,ive got the same A/c issue ,fitted new sensor and dryer just need a regas and hopefully she will be good 👍
Gr8 work again Ben 👊smashed it👏- glad to see you get to the bottom of most of the problems, keep the content coming on this special car👌will love to see you drop the engine if your brave enough and how far you get......good luck
Great little honest video Ben, you got to love those old classics, keep you on your toes, think of the certificates you would have not had, if you had just ran round in the pea. 😂
Awsome stuff Ben 👌 mine has 108000 miles no issues currently but was down most of summer waiting for kwv3 from Germany drc was done :-) ! Keep em coming Ben Your great 👍 bud!
Fun Fact, I drove this car back in early 2008, when it was owned by a mate in Manchester. I remember being underwhelmed until we took it over Snake Pass on a sunny afternoon.
Lee begs to differ. He’s got Conti’s on his McLaren and was telling me the other day how he can’t believe they still have shit loads of tread. Conti’s better in wet and dry conditions too 👍🏼
@@EVILGT doubt Lee is incorrect . Speak to anyone in the tyre game & they will clearly tell you PS4s are miles better for tyre wear . The compound on the Conti is softer & that’s the main reason they have awful tear wear .. do the maths 😉
@EVILGT looking forward to it . Keep up the vids been a subscriber for over 3 years, you and Lee are quality just every day people and Ash coming out his shell now 👍
Mines relieved me of over 15k in the 7 years I've owned it. I'm just glad it's not my daily🤣. When I put it back on the road around April it's gonna need 4 tyres,a service,some minor mot advisories and front discs 😮. There's always something to do on a b7 but it's like a loveable old dog that you just can't get rid of.😊
I never quite understood the need for Pad Wear Sensors. I believe Pads wear due to Braking= Friction from excessive speed. I was under the impression that Pads are good until a Grinding noise is heard😂 Must be that xmas has gone that You don't want a Dash like a xmas tree😂😂
@EVIL GT Is it normal for your B7 to crank for ≥2 seconds? Mine cranks and idles in an instant - I'm in South Africa and its Autumn/Summer. Also, what other styled rims may I fit other than the OEM? I wanna refurbish and store the originals but gosh I'm battling to find alternatives. Every RS4 owner I've come across has OEM wheels. Did Audi do this on purpose? Please help any1, Thank you.
Interesting to see where washer fluid excess is , think I need to replace pump as mine feels sluggish even after cleaning jets 💦 💦 💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦🍻🍻💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦🍻
When mine leaked it was the headlight washer pump that had rusted internally and cracked as it does less work than the pump for the windcreen, so water sits in it and rust its quicker, it quite common on these. The washer bottle is quite robust and rarely cracks.
But no tv Tunner or take me home lights , but my last one did , just factory options , wish I had them , also converted last tv to digital using tuner from 2013 A3 👍
A shit tone of talk lets you drive it like mi granny without it juddering or stalling!! Lovely engine and car, I had the same year but convertible, wish I hadn’t sold it!! 👍👍

11:41 THE VR6 soundtrack is definitely one of the best after the C63 AMG
Awesome Ben to have more content on the RS4. Keep up the content 👍
I had that issue with the ware sensors, i ended up soldiering the pins together where you used the wire 😊
Driving it correctly. Nice one Ben

Thanks mate. That was a great day 👍🏼

Lovely car , been a loyal servant that one , and it’s nice when you get all the little jobs done , good luck 👍👍

Best comedy duo on RUclips 😂😂😂 love these car videos. Get a classic in to prep for summer shows
Thanks mate 👍🏼
Love the RS4, good to see they're not always expensive to maintain. I'm 100% going to buy one, just the small matter of buying a house first!
You can sleep in a car but you can’t drive a house as they say… RS4 first 👀😅👍🏼
@@EVILGT Don't tempt me!
The ECON light isn't going off as letting you know it has a AC fault like low gas pressure or faulty pressure switch I would guess at on a Audi
Great video. Where was the leak for the window washer system? I’m having the same issue

Good to see the rs4 topping the bill again and to see leeroy with his cameo roll at the end 😂
The aircon sensor is on a one way valve so no gas should escape when changing , or it was empty beforehand aswell

Same ❤️
Love your approach, feel guilty if I miss one and not supported you!

My car or another B7 RS4?
@@EVILGT going off the My Car check - I am 99% sure this is the same car. Does it still have a key code immobilser?
Great video Ben
Great sounding car!
Conti 7 has shocking wear v’s Michelin PS4s so definitely not cheaper in the long run . Michelin are 👑 as I’ve tried both extensively
Lee begs to differ. He’s got Conti’s on his McLaren and was telling me the other day how he can’t believe they still have shit loads of tread. Conti’s better in wet and dry conditions too 👍🏼

Car sounds sick
Looking at the gear stick you need a short shifter.
Definitely 👌🏼
Where is the turbo yaris ? Can't wait to see that 😂
Video edited! On next week 🤞🏼
@EVILGT looking forward to it . Keep up the vids been a subscriber for over 3 years, you and Lee are quality just every day people and Ash coming out his shell now 👍

Keep them coming 🙏😀

Good to see Leroy turned up with his sponge 🧽 in his new coat at the end 🤣
Getting his hands dirty finally 👌🏼
@@EVILGTnot sure how. He put gloves on first 🤪😂
Rear view mirror surround looks like its coming off
Join the pad wear wires together. Job done
They had snapped off 👍🏼
Who needs Lee for the comedy when we have Ash 👍
Any updates on the yaris?
Tomorrow night mate 😬👍🏼
oooooffff the RS4 😍Don't ever get rid of that Ben mate, the sound track is 😍, Ash also Loves it even though it makes him swear 🤭🤣😂🤣
🤣🤣🤣👌🏼
What are the garage tiles like?
Can’t complain for £10 a pack mate. Bang on 👍🏼
Used to be my dream car b7 rs4. Fantastic sounding car.
Id be asking why there was no AC gas in the system. Is there condensation in the headlamps?
Can’t be a leak as the A/C machine does a pressure test doesn’t it 🤔 no idea bud. Yes there is cleared now though 👍🏼
@@EVILGT someone deliberately depressurised the AC for some reason or the gas left on its own.
I never quite understood the need for Pad Wear Sensors.

Must be that xmas has gone that You don't want a Dash like a xmas tree😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
Think you need more than Ash help removing the engine 😂
You doing the chains as well?
Probably if intimate yeah 👍🏼
Vag technic Collab 🤔😂
Keep your better tyres on the back, you might even out the tread wear but you might find yourself in a hedge as well 😂
🤣🤣🤣

Haha definitely not 🤣👌🏼
Thanks for the tip brother, was thinking of getting a v8,are u a mechanic brother?🤫🤔😬😬🤫🤫🤔
I noticed your RS4 doesn't have a sunroof. Is that on all RS4?
Nope, mine has a sunroof.
It was an option from factory bud 👍🏼
I have one in mine 😊
But no tv Tunner or take me home lights , but my last one did , just factory options , wish I had them , also converted last tv to digital using tuner from 2013 A3 👍
