I know. Can't believe the number of vids/people out there that talk about the R8 having a Lamborghini engine😖. I think the engine is actually made in Hungary and final assembly is done at neckersulm, but has always been an Audi engine. Jayemm did a vid recently on the differences and history. Well worth a watch.

These technical videos are really interesting, even if you don't own a Lamborghini...!

What a very knowledgeable guy! Everyone in the super car repair/maintenance repair business should be this good!

I was so engrossed listening to Ricky that I wasn't really keeping track but, was this all on one take? It's one thing to know something but it's something else entirely to be able to communicate it, he seems to have both elements covered brilliantly.

This is exactly why this channel is in my top 5 on KZread, in addition to brutal honesty sometimes as well😎🇺🇸

What could have been a dry subject was fascinating and clearly Ricky is an expert. Great vid.

Wow... what a knowledgeable guy.. I'm a RS6 owner and learnt more in 20 minutes than my years of owning the car.. Subbed

Can’t recall the last YT video I didn’t skip ! A really good watch,

If only every workshop had a chap that knew his s##t like this dude... awesome !

Thanks James, Ricky. Love to hear a similar in depth perspective on recent'ish Ferrari V8's and V12's.

This video should also be a warning to all those kids who rush out to get "Pop & Bang" maps for thier cars. The part at 12:00 where he talks about the cats destroying the engine is food for thought!

Oh it's worse than that. Catalytic converters kill engines in all good ways. One should always get in their car and drive it, but you see people start their car, let it sit for ten minutes etc. WRONG. Lots of fuel dilution to get cat heated up, bore wash and you're done. Get in car. Start car. Put seatbelt on. Drive. When engine and oil are warm, give it some.

Those 20mins flew by, want more Jay, MORE!!

Huracan and G2 R8 bodies are built in Audi Sport’s Böllinger Höfe plant (Heilbronn) Both vehicles are painted at the Audi Neckarsulm plant. G2 R8 has final assembly back at Böllinger Höfe, Huracan’s final assembly is in Italy. (Sant’Agata) Engines for these cars are built in Audi’s Györ plant in Hungary.

Absolutely. I took my R8 to him for a full service and carbon clean etc after buying it. Great lad. Pleasant and thoroughly knowledgeable and I'm at least four hours drive away. The running costs, for R8's at least, is definitely not too frightening for regular stuff and a level below the likes of many others.

There is a company where I am in Canada that upgrades these the older throttle bodies and makes them SUPER reliable.

Really liking this series Jay, so interesting and refreshing to see some new content that you don’t see with all the other KZreadr owned gallardo’s. The R8 comparisons are extra interesting for me as I’ve cross shopped the two cars in the past. Keen to see more.

Ricky is a friend we all need! 😂👍👍

So much quality info shared, thank you for taking the time to create in-depth content on these platforms

I’ll be honest. I understood about 25% of that but what I did get was very informative and the rest I enjoyed trying to get my head around! Good video and would be absolutely confident taking my car to these guys.

Oh wow! Thank you so much for this in-depth technical talk about these engines where I’m sure most people thought they shared many more components. I’ll never have the chance to go on a super car journey, but this really is an engaging exploration into the whole experience. Keep ‘em coming! 😃

Wonderful and informative video - Ricky is awesome! Thank you for sharing 👍🏼

I loved this video, would really enjoy more of these style vids Jay, keep them coming!

By far one of your best videos to date jay. This stuff is right up my street🤗

Absolutely fascinating, so much information packed into a short video. Buying a whole arm for a ball joint is mental! Those artificial costs are the difference between regular and supercars.

Best content I've watched in some time. Many thanks & fair play for not butting in at all. ps How about a follow up video where we learn more about projects they have done / are doing... exposure for them whilst being great content

What an excellent episode! 👍 Looking forward to part 2!

I didn't love it. The guy doing the talking was clearly knowledgeable and its a subject I do love. But the boring drony voice and the continual lack of t's used (sorry but it's a real pet hate) put me off so badly I turned the video off. It's a shame as I REALLY wanted to enjoy it

This guy is brilliant with both his knowledge and ability to convey it, I cover fishing on this channel and wish I was as fluid at speaking in front of a camera as he is. We need more of him!

So avoid the 5.0 and get the Audi 5.2s got it, and what a wealth of knowledge this chap has

Fascinating, we want more technical videos like this

What a delight to listen to someone that really knows his stuff. I'm looking at a 5.0 SL and have 1 going for inspection alter this week. This video was more helpful to be well prepared than nearly everything else I saw on YT combined! Will check the second video too...

Great vid jayemm. Looking forward to part 2.......3,4,5,6,7,8,9 etc😂👍

Fascinating insight, really enjoyed this video. The cats thing was interesting though and is part of the reason why I'm not so fond of the 'pops and bangs' modes on performance cars. I knew about cat damage in other cars but never realised it was so serious on these.

Love this type of technical content.

This man is "gold"... i would pledge that this video is "public service quality". So much information, so much experience... Great video, even if i dont even have the founds for any one of the cars mentioned Audi or Lambo, i just sat here listening.

One of the best videos I've watched in a while. I have no reason to care about the internals of Lambo/Audi engines, but Ricky is a natural at talking about and explaining everything. Brilliant.

Great video! Expert insights.

ricky is really helpful, owning a r8 for a year and all the problems i had hes a great help via the r8 group on facebook

Great! More of this technical videos please 🙂

Excellent! Do more videos like this. For Porsches, for BMWs etc.

Such a great video... I had a mk1 gallardo and as matey said I had throttle body issues!!! Very very interesting. So great to hear someone just nerd out on interesting cars. And actually to learn something, about how and why these things do what they do.. LOVE IT 10/10 give us more !!!!!!!! Ps Loving the channel !

Loads of knowledge shared here which is great👍🏻 I wonder if all the modern cars with the chavvy backfiring exhausts will be sucking catalyst material back into their engines as mileage increases?

Great info. Thanks, M8 👍

A 90 degree block(V8 based) instead of a 72 degree block is the reason for a split pin crank or 90/54 degree firing, just one more bit of information that may need to be explained.

So much knowledge! Thank you 👌🏻

Fascinating to listen to. Enjoying your pet project series. A suggestion maybe you should be onscreen as well and make it more of a two way discussion?

I love these more informal chatting type videos

Great to hear someone who knows what they’re talking and passionate about!!!!!!! First class 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks Jason, this is in my opinion (as an engineer) one of the best videos you've done. I know most people will find the detailed tech stuff more boring than just being out and hearing exhaust sound BUT this goes into a lot of the WHY high performance cars require routine maintenance. Thank you especially to Ricky for talking about it.

I'm really enjoying these lambo videos there really informative. I can relate to the parts sourcing. I know the price is not comparable but I have the same problem with my Proton savvy suspension components are impossible to get without importing them from Malaysia, makes MOT work a pain.

One of the most interesting and informative car vids I've watched on KZread in years

His knowledge is obviously good, but his whiny droning voice is off putting and the total inability to ever use the letter T when it appears in the middle or end of word is just plain lazy and makes you want to switch over.

I doubt the engine rebuilds in which this man plies his trade will be the worse for a few dropped Ts. This comment section is overwhelmingly positive towards Ricky's ability to deliver information clearly and in an interesting manner, so you misfired there as well. Even this mini-thread, in which you posted your hand-wringing whinge, started with a complimentary comparison to the great Iain Tyrrell. It has only just dawned on me that you might indeed be Iain Tyrrell and that you are not OK with the comparison, hence your stance. If that is the case, I take it all back. However, I doubt Iain would refer to his own intelligence and then misspell criticising. As you will not be replying, I will simply wish you well and hope that you can find some peace and tranquility to enjoy the simple things and cease the hunt for the negative in everything you experience. Be well, be safe and have wonderful rest of your day.

Replying to my own comment here just in case my reference to "boring expert" was misinterpreted. The play on words was related to his expertise regarding bores of engines, hence "boring expert". With regret, I realize that my first comment should have been, "Ironically you are both experts in boring, though in completely different fields".

So nice to listen knowledgeable person. Glad you didn't interrupt him.

Awesome nerdy video, right up my street James 👍
