I woke up 5 mins before filming this vid, why some of you saying I seem subdued or something up with me 😂

"It's been really reliable" Ricky - "Lets have a go"

Mans gonna go home and unsubscribe from LLF 😂😂

A lot of haters on here wow enjoying the guys pain.. u guys are supposed to be car guys all with the same car luv, if u can laugh at another guys pity or car pain then you aint a real car guy, lets hope karma doesnt play its game and your not parked on the side of the motorway with hazards on tonight..

Give the guy a break...seemed like a nice chap unlike most of the others

"People on forums tell you what to do without speaking from experience" *Nodding in agreement intensifies*

"I like the sound levels, not too intrusive." *screeching and grinding noises* Ricky ----------------> o_o

listen to the engine at the start, it's tapping not a good sign

Now me and the mad scientists have got to rip apart the block and replace the piston rings you fried

Ricky did us dirty not explaining what happened 😞

my guy was actually talking about how reliable it was and how he's bought expensive parts lol

I got a vr6, hearing that one rev at the start of the vid i was wincing. Thats not how they should sound, especially a turbocharged one....how could the owner not know

Sad to see that. Can't leave the man with a broken car 😢

First sign of " never heard that before" you pull the faq over take a look, and tow it. You dont "easy ride back" it!! Your problem can go from bent valve to cracked piston in 1 second flat.

*RICKY - "Is that a pop and bang map you got on?" DUDE - "Nah it's just the natural exhaust note, beautiful"...the car was a wrong'un from the very start 😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂*

I'd feel a bit guilty if the car broke while I was driving but they can go wrong at any time

Ngl surprised this doesn’t happen more often

Man’s all ready for the future,bet he wish he can go back to the future now

Ricky just knew something wasn’t right with that car the moment he got in the drivers seat

The rust on the wheel arch?? If you love you’re cars you don’t let um rot away like this😂🤣😂

This guy seemed like one of them people who acts like they know everything but dont

‘They do eBay auctions, you see them on the scene then their gone ‘ man must have got his parts from eBay auction cause his gone now loool

Sounds like it was starting to knock when he was revving it in the car park

You defo had a itch in this vid Rick 🤣 Rick “what u don’t know what that is”? Sorry that was gold🤣

“Is that the brakes?” 😂😂😂

Yasnin might be one of the most humble, well spoken guys you've had on here (not to discredit anyone else of course) but my man carries himself well, nice car as well and Ricky doing bits as usual with the video

Haha last time i had a mk3 and it made that sort of noise one of my rear wheels went past me at 40mph

We need a behind the scenes episode once a year from you Ricky, keep the camera rolling 👍🏽

Easy drive back haha

Man broke his car, sent him on his way crying n then put it in the title to attract more views n more revenue 🤣 Ricky’s a g

06:55 engine was ticking already....like a lawnmower Also like a doodoo 09:11

Ricky. Bro. I can't imagine how you yourself must be feeling as you were driving it when it happened. Hope he can get it sorted

Sounded ruff at the start up?! 🤔

Bro what happened to it man? Need to tell the people G 😎👊🏻 sad times man the geezers pride and joy at the end of the day but this shit happens man... been told it was gearbox mount 😎👊🏻

*RICKY - "So what's it like for reliability then?"* 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️😭😭😭😭😭

Tbh why did he even turn up knowing he had an oil leak that was causing low oil pressure

I owned a vrt , first issue was 3rd gear smashed itself to pieces, second issue was exactly the same as first, bought a treated gear set and put a peloquin lsd in, best move ever !! Changed to 35r / 1.06. from a 30r / .76 . Got bored buying tyres so often. Treated myself to h rods , pistons and the very expensive arp,s and wear n tear replacement parts. Got my Ecu back with new settings , fitted all and did over 700 expensive up n down the motorway miles , then me being me couldn’t resist the new evo 10 that zipped past me. I knew I had an expensively built stage 3 under my harris but it scolded off from 60mph , then went full hyperspace mode for around 3 seconds before absolutely and completely detonating the engine. Either me or my buddy simply forgot to connect the boost controller, the car made a zillion hp for 3 seconds then the most violent bang I’ve ever had in a car. Rod out the sump, smoked 6 lanes of traffic completely. Saw daylight between top of window screen and metal. Two pistons jammed so hard in block, a scaffold pole couldn’t smash them out. Valves all bent ,some in L shape. Stood there looking at all that money and cut hands from the inside of the block,time and effort and all gone in a few seconds down to one silly error. Two points to take from my story. One = buy a strong gearbox from the start. Two = let someone go over your car after you , one silly mistake can cost a fortune. Ps 4 months later ,the salvageable parts + new engine/ turbo (yep that let go too and was a Garret) went into a mk 2 . I was 12.6 with the mk3 and so wanted 11,s , I drove to pod n home every time so 888’s where best I could do and u will really struggle to get into the 10’s without slicks and I’d watched my friend snap 3 lots of drive shafts so not for me lol. Happy ending though. 11.2 q/m . Sad that the vrt is a car that is hard to use on the roads now, too many cameras around and it’s not an off the lights car which is all that happens nowadays ,as in 300ft it’s hard brakes for the camera. These things need big open roads . Still. LONG LIVE THE 12v

You can literally hear it knocking when it's being revved at the start

Sounded like it was on its last legs on startup. My man should have stayed in Luton, bringing a scrapper for review, lol. Ricky wasn't pumped for this and it showed. FAIL

We’ve had loads of these in Mk2s and 3, when we’ve timed the engine up wrong they sound exactly like what yours does when reving, almost slightly like a Subaru! Doesn’t rev up freely, might be something worth checkin! Popped a drive shaft by sounds of it! Great content as always whoop whoop on to the next!

Bit of a lash up this one 😂 it was bloody tapping from the beginning of the video

Sounds like it's down a cylinder when he's revving it. I don't understand how he can not hear that.

Probably knew it was going to go bang lol took it to Ricky to get him to pay up for it lmfao 😂

If it runs 300ish at 15psi there’s no way that turbo is capable of pushing 750+bhp unless he wants to push like 50+ lbs of boost 😂😂😂 absolute joker!

Stop the hate, he is a genuine car enthusiast and admin on forums, which is testament to his knowledge and his willingness to assist others He laboured tirelessly to get the car to this point and done almost all of the work himself. Take a car from scratch spend the thousands that he has and do the work yourself becoming an arm chair critique from your bedrooms

Who else skipped to when Ricky starts driving

13:52 ricky that face hahaha🤣

Loving these old school car videos.

Already sounded not right at 6:58 revving in car park. Sounded like it was misfiring..

Sounds to me like it’s popped a drive shaft?! Lovely car though I really like the mk3’s, hope the guys car is back in good health now! 👍🏻

Ripping on a base map, excellent idea!

I feel for the guy....heartbreaking to see the car he spent so much on give up....fingers crossed he gets it sorted...

It's a prank Rick farted

No doubt and engine or gearbox mount common on vr6 mk3 especially when boosted

When old vw's breakdown they come back faster and lower!

That carbon bonnet gap to the wing is epic

Ricky Broke mans whip then dashed to his M4! Bruh🤣🤣🤣🤣

LLF wknd 👌🏾 content doesn’t stop getting better and better Ricky 🙌🏾

Hope its not a big troublesome bill to get it fixed. Keep up the good work.

“DAMN SON” 😅

Sorry to see and hear this. Hope he gets it sorted soon

The beautiful VR6 sound?? This guy must be deaf the car sounded like it was misfiring when he was revving it 🤣🤣🤣

Had this problem once. Depending o n how much the engine reved my exhaust would knock on the chassis. I don't think he has to worry..

Nice to see how many online mechanics we have here 👏

I hope everything was OK, I enjoyed watching the drive. Sorry it ended too soon.

Probably the nicest guy thats been on the channel!

Things go wrong sometimes, hope the guy gets it sorted.

Damn I miss mine. 98 jetta Vortex S1-trim 8.5 psi, first gear out of a rabbit diesel. Quif- differential, 375 ring-pinion, nitto-555 drag radials, 12.5 quarter mile. With spare tire and car seat. Nice job on the ride

Cars break,it is what it is,stay blessed llf gang

LLF weekend ❤

Yeah it does sound like it was missing in the beginning, but its never nice when your project car fails man. All the best to him in the future.

My favourite vid yet, you should break more cars! XD

Unfinished tatty project massively not ready for a video...I’m not hating but the thing was tapping like crazy,trim missing,cables hanging out everywhere and rotted front seals 😕 it was broken before the shoot Ricky But to end on a good note wicked to see these older cars and variety. If he gets that on its toes he should bring it back in a year and show us all how cool it’s become 👍🏻

@6min 58 sounds like its ready for the breakers yard rattling away and then ricky comments saying it sounds nice revving up 🤷🏼‍♂️😂

Gutted for you mate, the Vr has a special sound, coupled to a turbo it's Eargasm Rise the Phoenix Bro 👊

Sick....more VR6's please

I have to say this is one bad ass video for one bad ass car

Seems like a nice guy who knows his car respect

Ricky blew it up lol that mans got a heavy right foot!

🤣😂 Called the car old school. It showed up.

OOOOOO sounds knackered at @6:59

Best one yet!

My VR6 sounded beautiful stock, this sounds like a diesel :D

I had an oh mk3 vr6. You can buy one but if you want reliability you'll need to rebuild it pretty much. Oil seals, brake lines, belt, coolant pipes, brake sensors, exhaust box etc etc. Love em though.

I suggest he goes back on the forum and asks how to build a engine properly Hahahaha

This is the funniest car vid I have ever watched 😂😂😂😂😂 Lmao lol.

Didn’t pull over to check it out? My guess it dropped a valve. Any other guesses?

I had a 850 T5 that made a similar set of noises with a backfire, pulled over and waited for recovery and the whole engine had hydrolocked itself with its own oil, anyway it was a write off :(

So what was the issue in the end? Sounded like broken gearbox? or busted engine mount allowing the engine to grind on the chassis?

Ricky you need to make another Video about the Vr6 with facts from a owner that knows his facts. Sorry, Also a stock one , ok maybe with a VSR Manifold or Shrick.

I wonder what's the wrong way to build a VR6 Turbo? Yasin - "Hold my shades bro"

Slight oil leak? From the puddle on the ground in the intro I would say it looks quite severe.🙈

I was watching while reading the comment thinking whys everyone hating but damn that tap was loud at the start 😂😂😂 Knock knock knock … BANG!

Look like dem gremlins came back with a vengeance star 🤣🤣🤣

Great music choice suiting intro

Jheeze yes Ricky you the realist

Looked like Ricky wanted to laugh when in broke 😅

Very nice vr6 man. Hope the lad gets it sorted. The guys taking the piss are trolls and not proper enthusiasts. These guys need to stick to drama channels.

The guy seemed decent and was passionate about VW's. It's a shame he was on camera when his toy failed. I hope he gets it sorted and learns something so he can pass on the knowledge.

such a lovely vr6, shame this had to happen.. after all the talk of owning old cars and buying proper parts and then it claps out. sometimes life can be mad lol
