Loving these....as an owner of an ageing 225 Quattro with a BAM engine it’s good to see what abuse these engines have to put up with and still run reasonably well.
Looking forward to the next instalment.👍👍
Thanks for the feedback Robert ! they certainly take some abuse over the years and this one has had it fair share ! 😀
Many thanks for these very helpful videos, keep up the excellent work. Perhaps you could do a video to get shut of all the piping for PCR, n75 etc and suggest a newer, simpler system that covers all 3 systems that’s more bullet proof?
Thanks for watching Smgeraldo ! I did cover some of this in my last vid, i could do a catch can install if that’s of interest ?
Thanks for watching guys ! What should i do next ?
Hi, Thank you for the videos I find them helpful and interesting. A good camera and good lighting make a big difference. I have a high mileage MK1 TT, so have been going through the same pain. Regards Tom
Thanks Tom ! im a noob at filming and editing im just using my 11 pro and imovie 😆👍
Another good video mate. I think just going over it and making it mechanically sound then a full interior and exterior detail should do the trick!
Thanks Iain ! It will be good to give it a good clean and see how it comes out.
Looks possibly like a bit of the plastic crankcase breather pipe and some old bits of dipstick tube that got into the pickup 🤪
deffo ! all sorts of stuff has gone in there over the years 😀 and well worth doing
I was always told to use the ball ended Allen keys as a last resort because of the limited surface area. Much more risk of rounding out the Allen key. 🤔
thanks for making this mate, I’ll add it to my to do list. I love the videos looking forward to more because I’m on the high mileage team. 😂 keep it up big fan of the TT content.
Just got a 225 that's done 160k. It's a. It poorly so your videos are great and I will do the sump at some point. Mine is a bit rough on idle, changing the sparks and then coils as one looks different from the others. Did the rocker cover gasket but have a feeling my turbo is leaking.
Thanks Sajaad ! i'd start with a good servicing and an air leak check this will give you a good start in solving your problem, good luck and hit subscribe !
Hi mate great video, did you get the red oil pressure warning lamp with this pick up fault....I've got this fault and I'm starting at the pick up pipe and sensor .
I'm sure the pumps ok as it would rattle ....my red oil pressure only faults when hot and driving slow
No i thought id get it done as the car has done plenty off miles before anything bad happened lol, it does sound like yours could be blocked or pump worn, how many miles has it done ?
Liked and subscribed 👍 Rather than take the sump off do you think it would be easier to inspect the pick up pipe using an inspection camera/endoscope through the sump plug hole to see if it's blocked or not? Would save a faff in doing this job...
Hi Sam, you wouldn't be able to get the scope in between the sump and pick up pipe to see as its too close to the bottom and to be fair any 1.8T engine will benefit from swapping the pick up pipe if its not been done before. Good idea though
Why does your sump look filthy again when you reinstall it? Did you just reverse the taking it off footage?
Iam just about to pick up a TT Roadster with 200kms in Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦, love the video's i don't think my engine is a Bam ..inlet is pointing the other way. The car should be here Friday
Another sick vid! I got an idea for the channel i dropped you a message on facebook pal 😀 also maybe some exhaust modification then some power gains 💪
Cheers mate ill check my messages and get back to you, exhaust and more power is a good idea, maybe just a very big turbo !
@@VolksWorkshop nice one! 💪
Nice job!
Some ideas for another jobs / videos :
Haldex oil service
Rocker cover gasket replacement
Thanks for watching G Vidal ill put those on the list ! make sure to sub and click the bell 👍
Good to watch somebody that knows what they are doing
K04 and oem bolt on hardware off, BT on along with big FMIC, Fuel supporting bits and send it, find out power and torque limit on oem engine with BT ie GT35 size 😬
this is a good idea ! but you can clean the dyno afterwards ! 😄
Should be 5w30 or 5w40 for this engine bud 10w40 will work but it’s a. Bit thick
thanks for watching dude ! i chose the thicker oil purely on its better protection properties on this high mileage engine because god knows what the tolerances are like now ! 😆
@@VolksWorkshop true mate especially seeing as you've now removed the restriction I'd say before doing the pick up pipe that would be risky lol. But should be fine now just make sure to warm up properly especially in winter as I'm sure you already know. Cracking video though shame it's not as simple on the b6 a4 😂 you've gotta mess about with engine mounts.
The horror stories about the oil pickup pipe are everywhere...however its actually very rare that these block to the extent of failure. I changed it and so has everyone i know, all were surprised at how little gunk there was. I dont think this is such a big issue on the TT compared to other cars with this engine.
Its a very very common problem which ive seen tons of times over the years
@@VolksWorkshop Ah ok, I couldn't find a single person on the forums who actually had it blocked to the point of failure. No doubt there are but it's guaranteed to be such a low number otherwise there would have been a response from Audi. On a VW maybe..
@@marcooconnor blocked pipe killed my turbo. Engine was unscathed.
10w 40 I've recently serviced my 225 Bam used 5w 30 is that gonna be OK...
Thanks for watching ! 5/30 is perfect I chose 10/40 purely for its thicker properties for this high mileage engine
@@VolksWorkshop at what mileage do you think I should start using 10w 40?..... I'm on 79k 2003
4 pot calipers and big brake conversion, you might as well 😂😂
hahaha you never know where these projects end up !
Great video nice to see you showing her some love ,👍
Hi how are you. I have a jetta mk4 2002 model 1.6 petrol SR do you know these types of cars very well
Hi ,
Just subscribed, fantastic video, really impressed with this car 220k and going strong.
Quick question l have just bought a mk3 tt 1.8 , low miles only 8k what’s your thoughts on this motor know it’s not as powerful and 16 v , but from a reliability point of view?
Thanks Dave
Great informative video, keep them coming.
Thanks John, will do ! Make sure to Sub and and watch ep1 and 2 👍
Wow! 😮
Oooh MK1 TT! 😍
Good man 🤙
Thanks dude !
@@VolksWorkshop your welcome dude keep up the good work 🙌

What the fuck is a TT EP3?
