    Outstanding demonstration. I have a 2008 A6 which might need timing chain/tensioner work so I wanted to see a demo before discussing options with the shop (independent) whether to go ahead or not. Only qstn is you didn't mention sensors or solenoids in the mechanism. I presume you were beyond those by the time you got to the start of your demo? Thanks very much for this outstanding video

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  7 месяцев назад

      Well the sensors and oil control solenoids are located on top of the cylinder head and sides. They are very easy to get too. I did not have an issue with them. The chain was being replaced because of a noise and oil leak. Once I opened it up I saw how brittle the guides were. Thanks for the comment and kind words.

      Just to update you my technician at the Little Garage (in Huntington NY) found that the fault codes moved to the other bank with the swap of the sensors and solenoid. He replaced the sensors and one solenoid. Additionally he replaced a bad injector for cylinder #6. Car is now running well again and, based on the instrument panel, seems to have gained on gas mileage.

      @willpoweredgarage969  11 месяцев назад

      Hello, and Thank you so much for watching. Are you talking about the amount of links between the Intake and Exhaust sprockets similar to the way you check timing on the 4 cylinder motors? If so, unfortunately there are no timing marks on the sprockets and no keyway that locks them to the cam. They are a taper fit and because of this you must use the camshaft locking tool along with the crankshaft locking tool to set the timing exactly where needed. Also, make sure you follow the steps exactly to counter hold the sprockets properly.

    Very informative I have an issue with timing. I just purchased the 2009 Audi q5 and has several codes, P0019, P0018 and P0304, P0306 . It seems all the problems is with Bank 2. It looks like a timing chain upper chain assembly was done . Any feedback would be appreciated.

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  2 года назад +2

      Okay, so p0019 and p0018 refer to sensor A and sensor B ,respectively. Since you also have missfire codes in the same bank, I would believe it's in the timing. Now, there are a few things i would do. Since there are no timing marks, the only way to really sorta gauge if the timing is off is to get the crank at tdc and lock it with the pin on the side of the block. Then, remove the valve cover and look to make sure the flats on the cam shafts are both facing up and level to each other. If even one is not (would not be able to install the lock tool without turning the cam), then the timing is not set right. The other is that the cam phaser could be getting stock with debris. Audi recommends cleaning it and making sure it moves freely. I have never seen this as an issue, though, and maintaining the timing is off. Even though it was replaced, make sure the guides all look okay. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching

    So I just bought a 2008 A6 with a 3.2 and I believe I will need to do the timing on it. In your opinion would it be a good idea to change out the cam adjuster/phasers or not necessary? Or is there a way to test them?

    • @willpoweredgarage969

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  6 месяцев назад

      Its hard to describe, but as long as you have the correct taper tool just make sure the tool is well oiled and that the lip of the seal is facing the engine and does not get folded back. Its also worth mentioning that the seal is a big tight to get over the crank seal but don't worry , the seal does stretch and will relax back to size.

    Hello Will and Everybody, I'm in the middle of this job on my 2006 A6 3.2L, and this video has been a great help! I haven't yet received my new parts, and I have a question about the oil pump/baIancer tensioner from the video. At about 8:00, the old tensioner you took out appears to be a hydraulic tensioner, which looks the same as my old one. At about 28:00 it appears that the new tensioner does not have a hydraulic piston? Did Audi make a design change in the oil pump/balancer tensioner? As I say I haven't received my new parts yet, but I want to make sure I'll be using the right one.
    Also, will you please post the part number of the VW/Audi sealant you recommend? Thanks.

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  Год назад +1

      Hello Steve, Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment. So the quick answer is yes. Audi did change the hydraulic damped one with a spring controlled one. There is no oil feed to it anyway so no advantage to it being so. At the time I was still able to get either but I went with the updated unit and it has been fine since.
      As for the sealant, it is audi/VW specific though it is made by loctite brand I have not seen it sold by them. I've always had to get it from either the dealer or places like ECS or FCP . The loctite number is 5970 and the factory part number is D176501A1. Hope this helps, and good luck. Most of all Take your time doing it!

    Great video. 2 questions. 1. What's the typical mileage for replacement? I know it depends on proper maintenance. 2. Why not pull the pins on the tensioners before the first 40nm torque? Seems to me it would take the the slack out and take some of the guess work out of these over complicated engines. (came to me when your assistant botched the hold on the left intake, first take?, torque,lol).
    And others might want to replace the torque converter while your at it unless its been done. Known problem.

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  7 месяцев назад

      Hello, Thanks for watching and the comments. It really does come down to maintenance. But Usually around 130K there starts to develop some chain noise at start up. As for the tensioner release it would not matter. The reason is the crank and cams are locked, the chain is just connecting the two. You want to remove the slack before the tensioner is release so that slack is not there at all. Then the tensioner can make up the last little bit. Yes, many people have pointed out the " botched" hold. lol Once of those instances, do as I say not as I do. lol

    Great video! I'm quite certain I have this issue but I don't have any hard engine codes yet (I caught it early). Is it always the upper timing chain assembly or could the lower timming tensioners also have this issue? I have VCDS but I'm unsure how I would verify this as the timing is fine 5 seconds after start. I just don't want to replace both upper chain assemblies to find I actually needed to pull the whole engine... Thanks!

    • @willpoweredgarage969

      What tool are you using? Its really just a plastic sleeve that fits over the crankshaft to slide the seal on. I have in a pinch used a plastic food container ( like you get from a Chinese restaurant full of soup) its tapered in shape and you can cut it to the size you need. BE careful with the seal, it is very fragile and you don't want to kink it. It is ok to stretch it out with the tool. It will conform back to the original shape though.

      There are absolutely no timing marks on this system. Everything is timed by locking the crank with a special tool and locking the cams with another special tool. Once they are locked in, the chain is applied, and the sprockets are locked down on the taper of the camshafts.

      They are tapered , so I just cut it in the area that fits over the crankshaft. The container has a radius on the bottom and the seal with slide over it and over the crank. Then carefully put the container off. The seal is made of teflon and will stretch a bit but don't worry it will relax back to size and make a perfect seal. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching.

    Hi there! Great video, thank you for it! I have a problem with my chain tension even after doing everything as SAID in the video and in the manuals, i'm standing in front of my engine while I'm writing this ^^. When I turn the crankshaft to check timing, there are no blockages and the flats face upwards after two full turns at the crankshaft BUT the tension of the upper chains fluctuate, for example the chains get looser between the camshaft adjusters and then tightens up, the same on other tension points. I tried everything but can't figure it out, could you or someone please tell me what I am doing wrong. Am I not tensing up enough the chain before the first turn of the bolts at 40nm ( I do it toward the chain tensioners) ? Is the problem in the chains? Thank you!

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  Год назад +2

      Ok, Not sure If I understand you exactly, but if I think what you are saying is you are rotating the engine by hand? And that when you do to see its timed right the chains are getting slacked, but then tighten up an everything is timed? If so, what Is happening is the hydraulic tensioner is only under spring tension when the engine is not running and has no oil pressure to apply the force to the piston on the tensioner. So when you rotate it the valve springs are forcing either the intake or exhaust cam to jump ahead of the other or lag behind. This is making the chain appear slack. As long as you set the cam phasers and held them in the right direction when tightening the bolt all should be fine. Keep in mind, it will make noise until the oil has pressurized the top end. Always a good idea to remove the coils and crank it a bit to get the oil pressure up before the first start. Let me know if this helps and answers your question!

    I used the locking tools for camshafts and the locking bolt for cranckshaft.
    I followed the ALL DATA specifications.
    What you guys think happened?
    I removed everything out again and started from the beginning,but I get the same measurements
    I did a compression test to see if something happened with the valves and I've got between 11.5-12.5 bar.
    The car starts and runs fine for about 20 seconds and then starts to rattle bad.
    Any thoughts?
    Thank you!

      So, My first thought is did you counter hold the phasers the correct direction. This will put it very far out of time. I would assume would run ok until the car is in closed loop and then is controlling the cam timing to a point it can not advance/retard it. Let me know how you make out. And thanks for watching.

      @WillPowered Garage Yes,I counter hold the phasers the correct direction.
      I watched your video plus All Data specifications.
      Maybe I have to put more tension on the counter hold tool?

      Hello . I am having the same problem with my 3.2 fsi after changing the upper tensioner, block 93 gives me negative values on all 4 phasers, before the change i checked the values were perfect. Did you figured it out , what is causing this? I am goona be very gratefull for a little help! By the way great video guys , it helps a lot.

      I think either didnt put the chain good or the new tensioner needs to be reset, i watch some guy in another video doing that before install it.

    Hi There, thanks for the video, I'm doing an audi q7 4.2fsi v8, I forgot to mark the cam sprocket or vvt sprocket(adjuster), but you said it doesn't matter which way it's go, are you 100% sure lol, anyway did your engine start and goes well after that, sorry to ask but I one to make sure before I put this on, thank you.

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  Год назад

      Ok, So yes and no. Yes it does not matter because there are no keyway or pins to lock it in. That rear bolt is what holds the cam phaser to the cam. It does however matter that you make sure the intake phaser is on the intake cam and same for the Exhaust phaser and cam. You also must use the cam locking tool and crank locking tool so that everything is perfectly timed. The other important thing is to make sure you counter hold the cam phaser in the right directions. The intake and exhaust need to be held in different directions as you tighten the rear bolt. I even had to read this a few times and I even watched a few youtube videos. lol Let me know if you have more questions.

    • @alalatemakafana200
      @alalatemakafana200 Год назад

      Thanks for that, yes I will make sure that intake phaser goes to intake also the exhaust, and I've got the proper locking tools to tight them. Did you have any issued after running this engine? Thank you.

      Only one better is Ford putting the water pump inside the timing cover, timing chain driven. That way when the seal goes bad it fills the crankcase with water to make a milkshake.

    Now do a video on installing that rear main seal because there’s literally no good videos on it and it seems like EVERYONE is having issues with it.

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  Год назад +2

      Its actually pretty straightforward. Just make sure its installed the right direction and if it did not come with a protective plastic sleeve for the crankshaft make one. I used a take out container and cut it down. Had nice round bottom to protect the seal as the cover is reinstalled. The rear cover itself is actually the hardest part. Keeping the corners of the headgasket from damage is very difficult. Hope this helps. Ill look through my videos and see if i can find more detailed info.

    • @IrishOphidia
      @IrishOphidia Год назад

      @@willpoweredgarage969 yea the cover went on ok. The issue we’re having is that the seal we ordered that’s associated with this engine comes with an installation sleeve, however, it’s too small and the seal seems to small. The internal diameter of the seal is 85mm at full stretch. Whereas the external diameter of the flywheel mounting plate is 90mm. We noticed that the flywheel mount also extrudes about 2in out of the timing system cover. In most videos or illustrations that we’ve seen, they are flush with each other and the seal sits on the outside edge of the flywheel mounting plate. Ours seems to sit on the inside edge of the mount where the diameter drops down to what looks like 87ish mm.

    How dare you skip over putting the cover back on 😂 that's why I'm here how the hell did you get the cover back on without damaging the head gasket? Right now my decision is cut the lower level off this gasket and try again or pull the heads. I'd appreciate some tips if you have any at all

    • @willpoweredgarage969
      @willpoweredgarage969  Год назад

      First of all let me say, I'm sorry. I did not show it because I had a world of trouble getting it on. The head gaskets are so thin in that area that it is hard to get it back on without kinking it. If I would have left the camera rolling it would have been a good 20mins of me staring at it trying to figure out how to get it on safely. The best tip I have is like I showed in the video, make sure you put that chamfer/angle on the dowel pin so that you can get the rear cover on easily, well id say at all. I actually ended up taking more material off of the dowel than Audi suggested and that made it so I could get it right in place. I also made sure to put extra sealant on the corners where it met the headgasket. :) Thanks for watching.
