I bought this cheap but wrecked Audi RS5 B8 from auction for my Girlfriend @HannahSmith to use as her new daily once it was repaired. It did have some chassis damaged but we found we could buy that part of the chassis from Audi directly. Normally Auction cars come with no service history & 1 key but this one came with everything. Despite that i felt it was right to service this car before we got it on the road and into the bodyshop.. and i was glad i did!

"Brand new, second hand" wing again 🤙🏻 Awesome channel Mat!
U know u have fast cars when a audi rs5 doesn't seem that fast 😂😂
Wow. I remember watching your videos last year in lockdown when you were in your driveway fixing cars. Great progress!

Hey Matt, great vid as always. To get a “factory finish” look with sealer, use a clean paint brush. Just simply brush over after application
I actually enjoy your builds its something many of us relate to or wish to do.
"Brand new second hand" always gets me 😂
This is why we love matt......reveals 2 post ramp without a BIG over the top fuss, wait and other bullshit. He just casually says excuse me my 2 post ramp is here. Long time followers know how important this ramp is! Well deserved pal 👏 👍
"Feel free to cry about that in the comment section below" 🤣 Love it
I like how he gets so much done in one video every time. I’m a new subscriber and I’ve been enjoying all the videos
12:27 Mat, is that one headlight unit turning on and off at this moment in the video. While the other unit is still turned on?

I screen recorded the video and both of them turn off, the left side is just more noticeable because of the angle
Happy for you getting the new ramp Matt, well deserved!!
The ramp is the best thing I've seen Matt buy for the shop yet 👌
Ayyyyyy it's always good when mat says he's fixed a car!!!
Congrats on the lift upgrade brother! Hard work pays off and your living proof of that. Wishing you all the success and happiness 👏🏻
Good work fella 👌🏼 Looking forward to seeing you get it finished ✅

This is taking me back to you on your driveway with the S5 build, love it!
Great to see you finally got the post ramp, just a quick observation when Hanna put her foot down from the rear view all that shite that came out the back would suggest as you rightly said a carbon clean for sure. another great vid love it ......

Yeah wasnt sure if that was just a dusty road, but if not, that was a lot of smokey shite coming out the rear end mate. Will enjoy watching how this turns out :)
My Audi has the “bendy headlights” and it’s fantastic on country roads. It’s weird going back to a car that doesn’t do it now, like it’s dark when going round corners😂

That’s true. I had a MOT failure for the lights not being within the required range so if they don’t match or is to high/low it’ll fail.
Missed this series build. But god going back to the S5 & Q5 takes me back, actually proud how far you’ve come mate. Scary what 18 months of a difference really can do, looking forward to the next 18 for you Hannah & Kev 🐾
It's finally happen it's been a while since Hannah doesn't have a daily drive car. all the way from south africa. next time plz mat include us from south africa on HSC plz ..always love your contant
Never bored watching this guy!! "Brand new second hand bumper" 🤣🤣 love it!
A true genuine guy that even sorts the Mrs out. Hats off to you mate!
Of course the cardboard measurement is legit! It's Mat Armstrong approved.

You’ve had more realistic cars i dream of daily than anyone i see on KZread mate keep it up! Love your ad’s too seen them they so funny!
Nice man, I purchased a wrecked 2013 Audi RS5 to work on. It’s at the audi dealership getting new keys and fixing the radiator leakage. I’m glad that you got it on the road 👍🏻
Good work Mat!
Only youtuber i acctually enjoy when comes to cars…
Matt. You should get your oil from FCP euro for your daily’s or just in general if you use a lot of full sub 5W30 on the germans. You can reboot le the oil at the end, and “return it under warranty.” This is not against their policies. They recycle the oil. Saves a lot of money on oil and good for the environment!
12:27 your car winked at you when you was talking bout it’s headlights😂
Hi Mat, I know it's an old video, but for future reference this is the digital oil level logic for the quickest way to check the oil level at standstill on an Audi. Engine oil above 40 degrees, Drivers door open, Engine stopped for at least 60 seconds & no engine speed signal. I hope this helps in the future
Those plugs are black because you have been starting and moving it around the unit. Lots of short use cold starts. Rich due to cold starts, hence the black plugs. Nothing to do with age 👍🏻
Your videos just make the exhausting school day a million times better 4:56 a few of us ?!!?!??!?!!?lmaooo😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 5:14 that dance 😂😂😭😭
1:27 before we start we gotta get the lambo out 😂😂👍
Matt I had a 6cyl A5 and used the 3M INTAKE SYSTEM cleaner and it worked great. Tons of power after the cleaning. I recommend it
cant believe how put together your setup is now lol.. you helped convince me get a mk2 TT, good shit man keep goin
Love it, 4.2 V8 Matt says "not very quick" here's me crying with a 1.3 diesel 🤣
That's another great job Matt 👏 think I'd have got the bits painted before fitting maybe.
Mat, you still make me feel like an excited little kid seeing his favorite toy... I really love your content and you drive me to do what I love and that's owning my own engineering motor garage.... Mad love man... ❤️❤️🔥🔥🇿🇦
9:17 Just a tip to help you. You can use a vacum cleaner and compressed air to clean the air filter box, as it will have leaves etc. in. If you don't have compressed air you can buy it on a can
Progress is 🔑 congrats on the two post lift, your finally getting to the top leagues and you started from the bottom. Keep it up mat!!
Brand New Second Hand Wing.... You did it again Matt. I think you are trolling us 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Blocked air filters means less air to fuel mixture, so engine runs rich and carbons up the plugs. Brand New First Hand filters 😆 allow the correct air fuel mixture and a faster than before, more responsive driving experience. 😁👍🏼
I love the adaptive lights on my golf, when in corners it does help. Although I'm not sure if its worth the cost.
Awesome job on the service but one thing I noticed that’s not bad but good practice on those type of air filter housing. When you pulled out the first filter it had straw etc on it. Hoover out the air box as that crap still in the bottom of the box will just clog up the new filter
RS5 owner here can confirm 5w-30 is the correct oil for B8/8.5 RS5. It is recommended on Castrol's official website as well.
There's a dip stick tube one the 4.2's.. It's got a blank cap, but you can buy an actual stick from Audi... One of the first things I did, makes oil changes much better
Paint the back 1/2 blue to match!! looks good 👍
New second hand gets me every time lol - will this one get a walnut clean lol you dreaded the last one! I recall you when starting up servicing a car in a pub car park! Well done MA
I remember watching your videos of doing some bits on a MK5 Golf GTI and now look where you’re at. Amazing how far you’ve come along Mat keep up the work mate 🤙🏼🙌🏼
I wonder how long matt will keep this one in garage😂 love it❤
12:28 your right headlight off & on while the car was running. Couldn't find any comments of people pointing it out.
probably the only channel where I don't skip ads. I think at some point every car guys dream is a 2 post lift :-D
I only use Millers for everything in my car! My old cls mercedes didn't have a dipstick and I hated not having it. Great work as always
well done mate you have come so far been watching you from the start cant believe how many people that have been inspired by you keep up the good work love your vids
A fuel warning light “an easy fix” - 29th Sept 2021 😂
"Thats exactly where we're heading now" lol sure you are 🤣 not without that front number plate on you're not
That blue is lush! Quick tip, do the air filters first when your hands are oil free ;) PDR will fix the bonnet no problems.
Well done I can't fault your enthusiasm, it is infectious.
So impressive and inspiring to see your videos. I'm so happy for you that you're living out your dreams. That car is gonna get some smile on your faces 😘
Been waiting for you to start the Rs5. But I think Hanna should be the one working on it and upload to her channel. Would love to see her doing all that work on her car. 😎
Gotta love the guys enthusiasm
Brilliant. Stirling work Matt
A new skill to learn Mat painting cars 😁
Looking fantastic please do the rest of the car that blue!! And the reason why they don't have Dipsticks is because most of them have one behind the wheel 🤣😂 glad you and Hannah can drive properly though. Lol keep up the fantastic work 👏 💪
“Some of you may have not noticed …” 😂😂
Can't wait for the exhaust 🔥
The units looking mint mate 👌🏻 you deserve every bit of your success #HWBT 🔥🔥🔥
i think there is a separate unit inside the car for the headlight adjustment, probably behind the clovebox if you unplug the plug to the unit the fault code on the dash disappears. i had the same issue with a a4 b7.
Great work to get the RS5 back on the road, I think I prefer the Sepang Blue over Panther Black...
You're getting way to good at this Matt.! 👍🏻
I like how he just humbly introduced a 2 post ram into the video haha well done mate 👏
Love the brand new second hand wing class 👏👏👏👏
Well done Matt cracking build 👍🏼 Bring on the mods 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Mate I just wanna say I love your attitude, it’s all our dreams to do this but not many got the drive.. you’ve smashed it with the builds and can’t wait to see what’s next. Selling your house to chase ya dream was the best thing you ever did. Well done buddy and hats off to you.

Work rate Frantic. This is turning out to be one of your best projects yet. Enjoyed every last second of this 👌
I know I''m a bit late to the party. But you can check your oil level after a service by switching the ignition with the bonnet open. It should show up on the screen on the instrument cluster.
Cardboard panel gap measurement is better than how some other manufacturers must do it 🤣
This exhaust sounds great! I wouldn't modify it
@12:28 driver's side headlight goes out for a few seconds and comes back on!! As he's talking about it... It's listening hahaha

Sneaky thing!
Pretty sure you can get a dipstick for the Audi, they just don't supply one as it measures the oil level electronically. There should be a small tube with a plug on the end, which you can replace with a manual dipstick if you want. Think there's a genuine Audi one that you can get. Certainly was like that on my old A5, so guess the RS5 would be the same?
Nice one Matt, garage is looking great, keep up the good work
Best thing getting the ramp in, perfect for getting a good clean on the inside of your wheels 👌
Go on mat lad always sending in good content!!
Once again, way more content per video than other car KZreadrs 👏 love it

Love the 2 post lift; really professional now… looking forward to seeing what colour this will be - purple would be awesome …
Love your videos just a normal every day lad who worked his backside off and now your getting to enjoy the rewards of that Labour. Keep up the good work mate 😎👊
Great work car looks superb, like the blue
Great work Matt
You smashed it!! Very happy for you! Love the build can’t wait for the next one 👌🏼
