WIthout a dubt, this is the best EVER video in engine tear down I have come accross - thank you for such a detailed and instructive video. It would have been even more instructional, if you had briefly described the name and function of each part as you were remiving. This would have been extremely instructional and useful for novices like yours truly. That said, I cannot express msufficiently my sincere gratitute for your emakable video - THANK YOU!
My brothers 2012 Abarth has 390,000km, & has no issues, but we change the oil with genuine Selena Abarth oil every 15,000km. The engine is all original, it has never had the head or sump off, inlet/injectors/exhaust/turbo etc, not been off either.. Only "engine parts" that have been changed has been a thermostat at around 300,000km, & the water pump with every timing belt change, as well as a few position sensors & coil packs over the years (none of which caused a breakdown, just rough running) & that is all. They are a great engine The issues on your example is 100% down to a bad owner either not servicing it often enough, &/or not using the correct oil.
OH MY GOD ! ! ! 11:00 What!? Oh man, I bet that other guy got paid good money for reverting the car back to normal. And the previous owner must have paid for a "bolt-on" kit.... Hahahahahahaha P.S. Broken impeller piece floating in the coolant circuit... My God, you should have titled this video the "Combustion Chamber of Secrets", because the previous mechanic was a real Wizzard. P.S.2 Great video man. Can't wait for the assembly video
Yes it was very ingenious method of re-factorizing the intake manifold... Sometimes we see great things and learn from it. 😆. Thanks for the comment man!
Hi, my car smoked (luckily not like in the video) only when I gave gas after releasing it downhill, the longer the descent lasted the more it smoked, the turbine had some play and I changed it with a new one 300km ago, the problem is that the car in the same conditions still smokes but very little compared to before the turbo was replaced, is it oil that is left or do I have some other damage? I checked the oil and it eats little or nothing
@@cocodomeno Hello. It is highly possible that this smoke is from oil residue in the exhaust system from the previous turbine. Unless you drive it hard so the exhaust system is put to some serious heat, the smoke will take some time to vanish. Thanks for the comment!
@@cocodomeno the valve seals smoke a little when the engine is cold. When you warm the engine the seals will not let oil to pass them. So probably it is not the problem.
@@amtperformance7072 the car smokes when cold but it's not oil but water having a 63.5mm exhaust with 120mm tips, I only get oil smoke when I accelerate on a descent, if I go downhill accelerating always it never smokes, for this we don't understand what's wrong with the car. if it was residue it should always smoke, I pulled it goes very well and I reached 936 degrees of egt at 248 km/h, engine oil at 107 degrees, so it has seen high temperatures, I removed the spark plugs and they are dry there is no oil
@@cocodomeno check the oil return line. If it is not completely free it can cause a problem like this. Otherwise it seems that you have to check deeper....

Thank you very much my friend. I try to explain as much as i can but your suggestion is very helpful!
Thank you for your quick attention and reply. I am looking forward to seeing more instructional videos from you!

@@amtperformance7072 I wouldn't want them to be the valve rubbers...

This is just upsetting to watch, this poor abarth has not had a good life 😭
Maybe the owner was using olive oil?🇬🇷
