Yeah man, I'd love to hang with this guy. it's a shame I'm so far away in Canada. If I ever tour to the states, I'm gonna make an effort to meet this guy.
@NaptownTuner !!! I did it! After watching many of your videos, I just finished rebuilding my 2.0T for the oil consumption issue!! First rebuild ever, and now I'm back on the road. I took my time and planned and ordered parts for about 1.5 months leading up to it. And then I spent about 4.5 days on the rebuild, using Wossner forged pistons - a perfect replacement because they are the latest waffle ring design, and they maintain the 21mm wrist pin so that I could reuse my (2010) OEM connecting rods. Thanks so much - really appreciate all of the great content and knowledge that you've provided.
I love your videos man. Extremely knowledgeable, detailed and down to earth delivery. I picked up a 2011 a4 with 65k miles on it. I put $8k worth of mechanical work in it already. This car would be perfect for one of your piston videos, if you ever journey to Orlando! Keep up the good work!
I am(was)a Ford Master tech 15 years. I am a "back yard" now. You remind me of my journeyman. I love the way you talk and operate. Hell. I hated working on Audi's. I had my first loss of compression (piston 2, valve burned a hole) anyway. I didn't want to do the job, lack of knowledge. I struggled and after a few channels I found you. My Angel with the pretty hair. I finished the Job 2 days ago. Man. I am pussywhiped, but for TFSI. I long for more. What you do is invaluable. I live in South Africa. Labour on Audi's are expensive. I did my best job possible. Thanks to you, I saved myself from the wrong tensioner, upgrade timing chain, timing, timing cover. F..k. Thanks to you I made good money. Thank you. P.s I know the video is a year old, but you changed my workshop forever. Your no.1 fan.💕
I have a 2012 Audi A4, obviously the oil consumption issue was not addressed for that model year. I purchased the car new in March of 2012. My car started consuming a qt. of oil every 500 miles driven at around 45k. Finally had the rings, pistons and timing chain replaced last fall when the car hit 58K. Car runs great, now. No oil consumption and with the recent addition of a CTS intake, down pipe, CTS intercooler, IE aluminum intake manifold, and custom tune. You’re the man, you know your 2.0 liter motor!
You are a weird dude in a very cool way. You teach like you are talking to a 3rd grade novice for the most part and it is most appreciated. New subscriber.
So glad I’ve found your channel. I’ve a 2019 Golf R. It was an ex demo and had 2k miles. It’s munching oil at 1ltr per 1k miles. The dealer has told me it’s normal! My wife’s VW 2003 V5 sport is now 17 years old. We’ve owned the car from new. I was warned about potential oil consumption by the dealer. I decided to go old school and ran the engine in for 500 miles and didn’t take the revs above 3k. Then I asked the dealer to change the oil at my expense. They refused saying it wasn’t due for a service. I then took the car to an independent and had the oil changed. The oil is changed every 5k miles, 17 years later with 190k miles there is no oil burn at all. I’m certain that car companies are fitting inferior internals and mixed with harsh early life driving, is making them burn and consume oil. Best wishes from Edinburgh, Scotland.
Great to see some more of you. This video was super interesting. I appreciate your thorough style and extra knowledge anecdotes. I think you can really make this channel a viable business. You get very good ratings and high engagement based on your views. That's a good sign!
I think you missed your calling as a WWE star! You have the look, the voice, a powerful personality! Love your videos. Next video I need a good Macho Man impression or maybe say Brother excessively as you speak like Hogan.
My guy is the truth on these foreign cars man.. I currently have a 2010 VW cc sport 2.0T that I'm replacing all the gaskets and seals and I found your channel.. You put it like no other and you explain in detail.. I definitely subscribed and plan on being here to support you and I hope you get to 100,000 subscribers A.S.A.P you definitely deserve it
new subject. Did I miss the video on stability control light on all the time? Internet says , Steering wheel clock spring. I'll go with your say. Thanks. Love your videos!!
On my 2010 audi a4 oil consumption was so bad that every 350 Km I had to add 1L of oil I have never seen anything like that or ever heard! and I have been driving all sorts of cars in my life this one was the worst ever. What the heck were Germans thinking? I have installed non wafer style oil control rings with $140 ebay malhe pistons on my 2010 audi a4 , but I knew about the problem with the piston rings so I did something on my own and took a chance, I enlarged all of the holes around pistons with a drill bit slightly larger, put engine together , now I can't believe the results I got , now I don't even top it off because every 5000 km it only consumes 1/4 of a litre it's mind blowing and I am so proud of my self . Dealer will tell you that 1L every 1000 km is normal that is bullshit they are just covering it up for their unengineered piston rings period. I should also mention that I have deglazed the block sleeves with silicon carbide flexhone bit . I want a comment back if you agree or I just got lucky on the modification. So far I drove 82000 km since then and no top offs, I change oil evary 7000 km Mobil sinthetic eoropean grade OW40. I just had to share my story , thank you so much, I picked up some of your trick which I am grateful for.
Respect to you,your passion, and sharing your vision .Ive owned a few Audi's. From an a3 TDI, to an s4 to the q5 b8 which I recelty acquired n now kicking myself
Super glad I found your channel man. I’ve got a 2.0t fsi but it’s still a bear some times. Oil consumption has been a major deal in this neck of the woods
This is what happened I took my mom to an auction I told her to get a new car off of the lot she picked an audience Q7 4.2 So I just got in with the misses right before the auction she was late like always they had no time to inspect the vehicles and short story I paid 10 grand for 2008 Q7 It came with a smog done already With a dead battery and No gas Just a Valley key was with it So I bought my mom the remote's 2 keys fobs paid 600 each for the programming I bought her a jump pack for the car though she doesn't get stranded and the damning car did not even last 3 months On the passenger side the rocker arms I believe they're called your roller arms came off the whole bottom roll I've been trying to find an engine airbase trying to charge me $12000 Just for the engine 15 to drop and install each Everywhere I asked to do a rebuild they don't wanna do it why is that I know it will start up without those installed right now Just running on a few and others bent valves But I'm not gonna start it do you think I should just replace that half of the side of the motor
Had a 2011 A4 that ended up with the issue. Cyl 3 was the worst in my engine. No longer have that vehicle and now own a 2012 VW gti. Its got mahle IE spec pistons and IE rods after it developed high oil consumption. Also has a cts boss gt28 kit. The 2.0T was a bit problematic in the early days but when they run,they run well. Btw new sub. Glad your shorts came across my feed and i decided to go exploring your channel.
I've used Kolbenschmit and Mahles in my aircooled VW builds over the years. Good parts. I hated working on TFSI engine at the shop. The concept was good, but parts quality from the factory not so good. Especially the cam bridge. Once those screens fail, your head is shot. We had lots of chain tensioner failures as well. That's an awful lot of carbon in the oil control rings. Seems like a combination of lack of frequent oil changes/cheap filters, and the inherent build up that of carbon thanks to the direct injection. Unfortunately direct injection is here to stay. My 2001 Audi S4 with 200K miles consumes less oil than these engines. I had to do the carbon cleanings as routine maintenance. Once you clean the intake ports up with walnut shells you're good for another 40K miles. Good money for the shop, but sucks for the owners. Great video for the home mechanic trying to understand why their VW's and Audi's break their hearts and wallets.
I have a 2014 Q5 2.0L. I’ve watched practically all of your videos as my ride seems to have all the issues. I’ve spent $6g in the last 3mo, practically everything under the hood has been rebuilt, replaced, updated, etc but it continues to slip or stall every time oil is added (basically 300 miles). I was told by Audi Asheville and my Audi guy the issues weren’t related to the oil consumption, however, I believe it is. We’ve recently done the B12 soak/cleanse to see if it will reduce the oil consumption. I wish I could bring “Jemima” to you, to get your opinion. And FYI, Mahle is pronounced Ma-Lee. I’m from Morristown, TN where there is a Mahle plant, and as a matter of fact, my high school hall passes 25yrs ago were Mahle pistons LOL.
Hi nice to meet you , you know how long I've been waiting for these videos? This is one of my favourite engines, because I don't like the bigger of the engines right now . I am very happy thank you very much
Great video man. Love the content. im currently rebuilding a 2008 a4 for my daughter that i bought. The dude hit an amish buggy and broke the timing belt. I would like to see you do a video on replacing bent valves. That would be awesome.
You're definitely killing it in the space you're in. I'm rebuilding my 2011 Audi Q5 starting in a week or so (I already have the front clip off for easier vs faster removal and install) just waiting on a few parts. I ordered the ebay special 23mm rod and updated piston special. And to my surprise they are the latest waffle style rings. I was burning 1qt every 400 miles before I decided to rebuild. I put 30k miles on my Q5 last year. So within a year or two we will see how well the cheap parts hold up. I also do a lot of highway driving and pulling my 4000lb boat. So it will be no stranger to extra stresses.
I’m needing the piston replacement service for my 09’ A4 2.0. I was quoted $6-6500 for replacing everything… Seems absolutely nuts to me! Did you do the rebuild yourself?
@@mvmlogistics2372 yes. I did the rebuild myself. It was fairly straightforward, but I have been working on cars since I was 15. The biggest thing is take your time (it took me about a week and a half working on it for a few hours after work and waiting on parts) and keep track of everything
My 2011 Audi A4 burning oil but I’m ok with it since it’s the only thing wrong in the last 100k miles I have put on it. I have 139k miles on it. I’m Thinking I need to replace my chain, tensioner and guides soon I’m just procrastinating...love the Info you just got another follower
This video was amazing! I am trying to learn as much as I can about my engine (2011 Audi B8 2.0t). Be you man your style and in depth tips and explanations are great. Would be nice in the future to hear more about how you recommend building these engines for the highest performance and safe reliability. For example how you would build your internals and how much horsepower you can achieve safely. Looking forward to more videos!!
I didn't changed my pistons, brought them to machine shop. They made wider grooves. Put on gen 3 piston rings. Second oil change, no need for topping up.
Awesome video! You explain everything in such detail, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I have a 2012 Audi A4 Quattro 2.0L which has always burned a bit of oil and slowly over time it has gotten worse & is now to the point of burning approx. 1L every 2500km (worse if I punch it at times which I now try to avoid). If I do try to accelerate quickly (punch it) it actually seems to choke a bit (no codes) prior to kicking in.
Just love to see people that know what they are talking about and take the time and effort to share this knowledge! Ps although you're glasses are the bees knee's the workshop looks a bit messy...
Hey Naptown, been watching your vids for some time. Recently picked up a 12 A4 2.0T, wasn’t aware of the oil consumption issue. My question to you is, if I pull my motor, pull the pistons, and give them a good cleaning, will this correct the oil consumption issue? Or it’s MANDATORY to replace the pistons and rings? Love the vids btw keep them up 🙏🏼
Really great video! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. One thing you could improve might be the amount of hand held videoing, it does make it difficult to watch at times. But aside from that really good stuff, keep it up!
Interference engines = both the valve train and the bottom end (piston crowns) occupy the same space inside the combustion chamber just at different times . SOOO if said engine jumps out of time then they will contact each other
I personally am not convinced that the carbon build-up is caused by direct injection design - not even in the intake ports. I believe it has to do with the crankcase breather design which is closed loop. vaporized oil and combustion byproducts are being re-introduced back into combustion chambers.
This is really great content, subbed. I was wondering, is there a way to clean the carbon off the oil rings without taking it apart? I read an anecdote that driving on highway(2.5-3k revs) for 600km on new oil change got the pistons hot enough to get rid of the excess carbon and the car didn't have oil consumption issues for a year. Does this sound possible to you? Also, would fuel/oil additives help the issue in the short term? Thanks so much for the content
Sadly I purchased a mahle branded transmission filter for a 0AW transmission and when it got here I was pretty disappointed with the quality. I'm pretty new to doing any repairs that can't be purchased from my local parts store and I didn't know I needed to go to the dealership to get the spare parts I needed.
Great Video! Question for you. Will a 2013-2016 2.0t engine work in a 2011 audi a4 2.0t tfsi fwd? Or would the VW 2.0t tfsi fit? Thanks again for everything, your videos are amazing and they help the community tremendously. I'm telling people about your channel anytime Audi work comes up. Cheers :]
Kolben = Piston, Schmidt ( Schmied) = Blacksmith... Kolbenschmidt = piston maker. Was the time you spent at the dealership your only experience as a Tech? Or did you work somewhere else first / apprenticeship? Love your content and looking forward to when you get your 100k subs!
I did a 2 year automotive tech program in high school half day then worked as a mechanic at a few shops from 18-23 before finding the “Audi Porsche tech” job on Craigslist wasn’t all that interested in Audi I wanted to be a Porsche tech but the service manager was only hiring for Audi and I got the interview and job on the spot February 2011. I still don’t know anything though (compared to what I feel like I should know). Im working on education big time so I can be a RUclips asset
@@NaptownTuner had you gotten the porsche position, you probably would not be doing the same thing (buying & selling vehicles and starting a youtube channel). The 2.0 audi route was a wise choice!
The compenents were purposely designed for lower friction, they lowered the tollerences to do this. The fix is to replace with a larger piston and a higher tension ring. The replacement design specs are the one found in the VW 2.0
The Ea113 engine you have in front of you had many different versions. BYD, BWJ ect. You want a cdl code engine (better rings pistons cylinder head etc). If you get a good one and look after it you get 280bhp and years of fun.
Great videos keep up the good work... My daughter's 2014 q5 2.0 is going through a quart every 200 miles. Thought the piston problem was fixed for the newer models. Any suggestions?
This guy seems like a chill dude to have a beer with.
Or a joint!
Or stoned. 😉💨
Yeah man, I'd love to hang with this guy. it's a shame I'm so far away in Canada. If I ever tour to the states, I'm gonna make an effort to meet this guy.
Come up to Kanada
🤣

Thanks so much - really appreciate all of the great content and knowledge that you've provided.
ohh gotta keep this in mind
Is it still running good today?
I’m so happy I found this channel!! My Audi just broke 100000 miles and it started giving me this crazy oil consumption problem.
glad to hear you're going hard for the 2.0t comunity! cant wait. I will be here for every video. im in the process of rebuilding mine atm
Aye I am as well!
Man I love this dude! Not in a kissing sort of way, but in a "Bro, you're really awesome", kind of way.
Detailed, knowledgeable right on!
I love your videos man. Extremely knowledgeable, detailed and down to earth delivery. I picked up a 2011 a4 with 65k miles on it. I put $8k worth of mechanical work in it already. This car would be perfect for one of your piston videos, if you ever journey to Orlando! Keep up the good work!
if you are in south florida i like to help giving you work on my mk7 R
You are a really smart guy. I enjoy watching all your shorts. I learned a lot from your tips. Thank you.
I am(was)a Ford Master tech 15 years. I am a "back yard" now. You remind me of my journeyman. I love the way you talk and operate. Hell. I hated working on Audi's.

My Angel with the pretty hair. I finished the Job 2 days ago. Man. I am pussywhiped, but for TFSI. I long for more. What you do is invaluable. I live in South Africa. Labour on Audi's are expensive. I did my best job possible. Thanks to you, I saved myself from the wrong tensioner, upgrade timing chain, timing, timing cover. F..k. Thanks to you I made good money. Thank you.

Great to see some more of you. This video was super interesting. I appreciate your thorough style and extra knowledge anecdotes.
I think you can really make this channel a viable business. You get very good ratings and high engagement based on your views. That's a good sign!
Not sure why you he hasn’t hit 100k yet this info needs to be around as well
I think you missed your calling as a WWE star! You have the look, the voice, a powerful personality!

I’ve just discovered your videos. They are great. Jeep going. Dont change anything, speed or explanation. Thank you.
Just bought a '10 a4 the other day and have been glued to your videos. Keep it up they are appreciated
Love your content man you’ve helped me out so much sharing your knowledge about this engine. Honest, to the point, and no BS! Keep it up man
Regular oil changes would certainly help.
Unfortunately some owners are kinda dumb.
Nice video.
Know a lot of people run non synthetic... yikes
You're videos are honest and informative. Very much appreciated.
Keep this going man, don’t give up
Love the video! I turn wrenches once in awhile and I'm glued to video good sir!

@@mvmlogistics2372 yes. I did the rebuild myself. It was fairly straightforward, but I have been working on cars since I was 15. The biggest thing is take your time (it took me about a week and a half working on it for a few hours after work and waiting on parts) and keep track of everything
@@drexelmathews7312 What videos did you use to help? Just ones from this channel?
You're so right and so funny man.. great advice!!
cuanta informacion valiosa !!!! gracias amigo gringo !!
My 2011 Audi A4 burning oil but I’m ok with it since it’s the only thing wrong in the last 100k miles I have put on it. I have 139k miles on it. I’m Thinking I need to replace my chain, tensioner and guides soon I’m just procrastinating...love the Info you just got another follower
This video was amazing! I am trying to learn as much as I can about my engine (2011 Audi B8 2.0t). Be you man your style and in depth tips and explanations are great. Would be nice in the future to hear more about how you recommend building these engines for the highest performance and safe reliability. For example how you would build your internals and how much horsepower you can achieve safely.
Looking forward to more videos!!
Dangerously nice at his craft.
I didn't changed my pistons, brought them to machine shop. They made wider grooves. Put on gen 3 piston rings. Second oil change, no need for topping up.
I like your work. Has helped me with a customers 2009 2.0t.
Congrats on 100k ❤
Your work is very appreciated!!!!
I wonder which rings BMW uses on their direct injected 4 cylinder... no consumption issues on my 2015 X1, plenty on my 2015 Q5
Awesome video! You explain everything in such detail, thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I have a 2012 Audi A4 Quattro 2.0L which has always burned a bit of oil and slowly over time it has gotten worse & is now to the point of burning approx. 1L every 2500km (worse if I punch it at times which I now try to avoid). If I do try to accelerate quickly (punch it) it actually seems to choke a bit (no codes) prior to kicking in.
Excellent done brother.
Keep coming with your great videos and inputs.
Encourages me to finally pull my 2000 V6 2.5L Engine out of the car😉
Dude ! I love your videos !
Hi from France 🇨🇵 carry on, you make me laugh !
See the problem is that the customer was driving around with AM pistons at night. PM pistons are for afternoon/night driving only...
Lmao
i love this idea brother. 2.0 Litre info is huge.
Just love to see people that know what they are talking about and take the time and effort to share this knowledge! Ps although you're glasses are the bees knee's the workshop looks a bit messy...
Hey Naptown, been watching your vids for some time. Recently picked up a 12 A4 2.0T, wasn’t aware of the oil consumption issue. My question to you is, if I pull my motor, pull the pistons, and give them a good cleaning, will this correct the oil consumption issue? Or it’s MANDATORY to replace the pistons and rings? Love the vids btw keep them up 🙏🏼
Really great video! Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge. One thing you could improve might be the amount of hand held videoing, it does make it difficult to watch at times. But aside from that really good stuff, keep it up!
Very nice presentation style for the novice engine fixer looking for good information on how to.
Excellent work and videos. Keep up the great work brother 👍
Subbed, love it
Love the video, can’t wait to see what else you come up with!
Interference engines = both the valve train and the bottom end (piston crowns) occupy the same space inside the combustion chamber just at different times . SOOO if said engine jumps out of time then they will contact each other
Keep grinding bro 💪 💯 im in
I personally am not convinced that the carbon build-up is caused by direct injection design - not even in the intake ports. I believe it has to do with the crankcase breather design which is closed loop. vaporized oil and combustion byproducts are being re-introduced back into combustion chambers.
get this man his 100k
"Klobber schnit"😅 bro your like the uncle i never had
I am very happy to be your subscriber thanks again
Love your videos
Audi picked the suppliers, agreed a quality standard, and should do sample good ins inspections...dont make excuses for them..
Exactly! Was just about to comment exactly the same thing.
This is why you install a oil catch can most new cars vent oil to the combustion chamber to lower emissions
This is really great content, subbed. I was wondering, is there a way to clean the carbon off the oil rings without taking it apart? I read an anecdote that driving on highway(2.5-3k revs) for 600km on new oil change got the pistons hot enough to get rid of the excess carbon and the car didn't have oil consumption issues for a year. Does this sound possible to you? Also, would fuel/oil additives help the issue in the short term? Thanks so much for the content
Sadly I purchased a mahle branded transmission filter for a 0AW transmission and when it got here I was pretty disappointed with the quality. I'm pretty new to doing any repairs that can't be purchased from my local parts store and I didn't know I needed to go to the dealership to get the spare parts I needed.
Great Video! Question for you. Will a 2013-2016 2.0t engine work in a 2011 audi a4 2.0t tfsi fwd? Or would the VW 2.0t tfsi fit? Thanks again for everything, your videos are amazing and they help the community tremendously. I'm telling people about your channel anytime Audi work comes up. Cheers :]
Awesome video man! keep going making these videos and in giving us advices.
Kolben = Piston, Schmidt ( Schmied) = Blacksmith... Kolbenschmidt = piston maker. Was the time you spent at the dealership your only experience as a Tech? Or did you work somewhere else first / apprenticeship? Love your content and looking forward to when you get your 100k subs!
I did a 2 year automotive tech program in high school half day then worked as a mechanic at a few shops from 18-23 before finding the “Audi Porsche tech” job on Craigslist wasn’t all that interested in Audi I wanted to be a Porsche tech but the service manager was only hiring for Audi and I got the interview and job on the spot February 2011. I still don’t know anything though (compared to what I feel like I should know). Im working on education big time so I can be a RUclips asset
@@NaptownTuner had you gotten the porsche position, you probably would not be doing the same thing (buying & selling vehicles and starting a youtube channel). The 2.0 audi route was a wise choice!
The compenents were purposely designed for lower friction, they lowered the tollerences to do this. The fix is to replace with a larger piston and a higher tension ring. The replacement design specs are the one found in the VW 2.0
Another great vid! miss you for a bit thought maybe you went back to work for a dealership (not) lol can't wait for the next video,keep it up .
The Ea113 engine you have in front of you had many different versions. BYD, BWJ ect. You want a cdl code engine (better rings pistons cylinder head etc). If you get a good one and look after it you get 280bhp and years of fun.
Like always, good stuff.Im a forever student . Thank you .
I would like to see and hear your take on oil engine flush.
I hear people say it’s good and people say it’s bad as the funk can block the oil pick up
I had no idea about anyone doing this but I was going to do a diesel flush
Great videos keep up the good work... My daughter's 2014 q5 2.0 is going through a quart every 200 miles. Thought the piston problem was fixed for the newer models. Any suggestions?
2013 Q5 2.0T here and it uses 1 quart per 600 miles. Unbelievable
Thanks for the info!
