@@MrDejast That's very well. That particular engine had poor quality chain guides from a poor batch which somehow got through quality control systems. Therefore it is most probable that many more of those engines with that batch of duff chain guides will suffer the same outcome. Not all VW/Audi cars are bad just like all other car brands. Unfortunately however lapses in quality control of engine part manufacturers causes negative reviews of the car as a whole. You have been lucky with your VW/Audi cars and I've been lucky with my Rover/MG Ford Lexus cars and not forgetting the UR Quattro I had for nearly 8 trouble free years.

When you consider that it is only just due its third oil change, the wear in these parts is appalling. I had an early one and sold it at 60,000 miles although I had changed the oil annually at between 12,000 and 15,000 miles. I don’t think for one moment that shorter oil change intervals would have saved any wear on the nylon guides in the above engine though. The fact that the new parts are modified from the original tells you all you need to know.

These problems were known off from the start by the manufacturer. The first owner would almost never experience these failures , they would happen to the second or third owner by which time the warranty had expired and the manufacturer couldn't care less. Dealerships price the older cars out of their workshops. At BMW it was made clear older cars were a problem and not wanted, simple jobs could escalate into broken studs, sheared bolts and stripped threads ,these were left to other workshops.

As explained in the video, the oil tensioner is upgraded, original from Audi, so the old one is clearly of poor quality. It's not about longlife. Sure, that might play a role in the long run, but take my car as an example: 2016 A6 Allroad 3.0 tdi 211 hp. Timing chain job was done under warranty in 2018, at 37.000 miles (service nr. 2). At such an early stage, it's pretty obvious it's not about longlife. Poor quality, plain and simple.

In the end it required also new turbos and to rebuild injectors, as they have been leaking badly, maybe result of amaterish chiptuning, which needs to be deleted, and was replaced by orig software.

You don't get 240-260hp from a diesel engine that's good on fuel and has low emissions without some intricate engineering. Most of these "design flaws" only rear their head once the car has been neglected and not serviced correctly. Excessive oil change intervals, poor quality oils and mechanically unsympathetic driving. I have customers with 1 or 2 owner cars with 3-400k on the clock that are looked after religiously.

353.000 km on a 3.0 TDI A6 C7G4 here after regular 15.000 km oil changes. The rattling is only noticeable shortly during cold starts, or when the oil pressure of the chain tensioners has dropped, which is normal for a car at that age. I'm not saying I can do 500.000 km without changing chains, but it's still 12 years of service from the car before this is required, which objectively is pretty decent.
