On my 17 A4 a coolant leak internally in my waterpump/thermostat that was corroding the connector, making it throw codes for the turbo charger and would misfire/limp mode, leak was so small you couldn't even see it, and never refilled the coolant at 30k miles. Gotta love audi

Great video and you did the right thing. This is how the car is treated by owners who don't care. As another KZread channel I follow says 'Always an Audi'. Some would say, the way they are driven and the attitude of the driver can reflect on the condition of the car mechanicals itself. I suspect this 'was' a cheap auction car, but will stand corrected.

Could be the camshaft advancer, timing chain. But all this could be going bad for low oil pressure. So yeah if thats the case the first thing to go wrong is rod knock. You are right.

Spot on we recently had a V8 Range Rover come in for rust repair sill's arches etc luckily the customer mentioned it had been at a garage to get a coolant leak fixed and it still had a problem so we did a few checks and test's on the coolant system before starting the body work and it was obvious that the engine had a serious issue and after giving the customer the bad news the decision to stop was made if he didn't mention it had another problem we would have dived straight into the rust repair

If that was the bottom end it would knock on idle aswell. This is an issue with the top end, might even be the camshaft control valve at the front. Try unplugging it and see if the noise stops

You are wrong, many engines have rod knock and have 0 noise at idle speed, they only knock when you rev them.

I have definitely seen that as well... No issues at idling and noises revving... The camera to fair, makes the noise coming across slightly different than it was in reality... That said, I guess that stripped would be difficult to pinpoint the exact problem with the engine... 👍👍👍
