I would too

What the light came on did you feel small shaking?

@@Jayvoltage253 The car was running normally with no shaking, the EPC light was just lit up in the instrument cluster.

Agreed

I didn’t know if hats would be more popular.. I don’t care how much I liked a channel, I’m the type of person that wouldn’t want to wear a big logo like that unless it’s for myself so I don’t even really like the idea but my brother made a few of these without me asking.

@@NaptownTuner well your brother knows that at least 10000 people like and appreciate what you do. Personally this info is invaluable. Thank you. Drop the hoodies bro it’s getting cold.

It should on most newer vehicles but not every vehicle is the same, I don’t worry about it anyway but if you want the most accurate readings fuel will wash down the cylinders potentially giving you a slightly less than accurate reading.

Cam solenoids? Had a gnarly misfire on my q7 once that i couldnt track down. Turned out to be a small piece of filter material clogging a cam solenoid. Theyre very easy to get to and clean in most cases. Just remove each one spray it down with some cleaner and make sure it can fully open and close.

My Q5 2.0t loves Pennzoil 0w40. Screw Mobil 1 ow40.

I think it’s a broken piston but I’m just bracing for the worst case scenario, I’ll demonstrate a leak down test in the next one

I have an Audi s5 Quattro v8 it could just be the computer ECU from what I’m told :( I would hate to buy it and it not be it. They changed my high pressure fuel pumps to new ones and the manifolds were kinda repaired not replaced. Still nothing so they took out my ECM sent it to some place called “flagship” and they said it was shorted out so I needed a new one. Still have not repaired it and my baby is just not running properly. I can still drive but it’s getting worse by the day:(

Did you ever get it figured out ? Mines doing the same thing I have 14’ a4

@@samanthaparada7 did you find the issue? im starting to think injectors

Has the engine been apart before

@@NaptownTuner I just got the car recently its a 2006 a4 Quatro s line with 180k miles and from what I can tell it probly has at one point I see signs of work being done at some point in the past. Engine sounds good car runs fine only reason I noticed the coolant was because a small leak than I checked the whole car better and found coolant splatter inside on the oil cap

My EPC light has come on recently on my A8D4, I rarely have time or chance to get underneath but did so today while going for an oil change. seems the oil cooler unit is leaking?... Im not a mech. but this light comes on for a few days then disappears for months idk

I haven’t heard that one yet, if someone else has let us know

I have the same issue on my Audi right now. I took a look at the valves on cylinder 3-4 and found the right valves are way cleaner than all the others. I changed fuel injectors, cam adjusters,plugs and coils even the water pump trying to track down a misfire I’ve had for a month now. Huge fan also, no problem paying for a shirt

Also I pulled my spark plugs out and around the thread part was black on all of ghem

Them*

I have the same exact problem on a5 ,shake ,problem starting and smoke from the tail .Can you tell what the problem was on yours please.Thanks,Apreciate

I don’t have them available yet still testing interest

I’ve never seen low compression because of a clogged cat but if anyone thought that was the case they can take the pre-catalyst primary 02 sensor out

@@NaptownTuner i scored a 1.8t a4 for a steal guy said it needs computer so took it home put it together no start first the key was not getting recognized so okay down the rabbit hole got it to crank but faintly still no start new coils new spark plugs check fuel pressure still no start compression test down 1 and 2 around 90-105. 3 and 4 were around 75 to 80 getting ready to tear the head off a d motor out half way through with the cat detached woat one i have ever seen clogged almost completely shut causing false readings and no start lmao gutted the cat car started right up swaped the old computer back in and car ran even better i got a 2004 audi a4 fully loaded for 350 bucks plus 200 for the trailer and i have been an audi tech ever since !

Indianapolis but I travel NaptownTuner@yahoo.com

Indianapolis but for the right 2.0t job I’ve been known to travel

@@NaptownTuner So Im from NJ.. I have a similar problem in my 2013 Q5... the engine was jerking, my mechanic changed all 4 spark plugs and ignition coils... A few few past and the problem returned, and now I have the check engine light + EPC light on. In addition, the car is linking oil through the exhaust... any suggestions would be truly appreciated it!

Never ask for permission, to ask for something.. do it or ask it then if you get turned down it’s whatever.

I’m a jerk so I almost just said no thanks

@@NaptownTuner i asked because there are some steps to take for me...i never made a yt vedeo, i have to teach myself how to edit a video and i have to try not to talk too much nonsense while summing up the things i've already tried...in english, which is obviously not my native language

If you were quoting a repair for a customer, how much is the scan tool going to tell you?

@@NaptownTuner It is going to tell me all the trouble codes and then some.

They can blow out the ringlands on the side of the piston then I have a scored cylinder wall we’ll see

You’ll get some street cred it you’re right, we’ll find out soon it’s usually 1 of 3 scenarios
