Best KZread car content by far. You're not only humble and chill but you also try to share with us all your knowledge and you sort of make us part of the project. Keep up the great quality man, hard work pays off and you really work your ass off mate!

Keep up the good work mate! Love watching these videos. From one car man to another, your work on these cars is spot on, really impressive!

Well done young man, as others have said, nothing seems to phase you and you remain good humoured throughout. I am severely sight impaired and no longer drive. However, I'm still a petrol head at heart and channels such as yours have become my new, "car magazines" because I cant see to read anymore. Keep it up, I look forward to seeing how the Q5 turns out. 😎👍 Steve

I rate the honesty in the video mate, love the Chanel, keep up the good work!

Loved the whole progress you made with this Audi Mat. Especially the "brave" colour scheme which turned out fantastic. Hopefully its mine after the raffle is done

Mat, I have really enjoyed watching your videos. I admire your tenacity and determination. Keep it up.

Watching this series again, just as good second time round. You are a legend Mat!

I was expecting a detailed breakdown mate as an example: £800 wheels £300 engine mods £550 wrap £600 coil overs But with the price of a mechanic that's going to be around £3,000? Something like: ££££ custom mods ££££ essential maintenance Would be ace to see this combined with fuel costs over 6months? I know these things can all be found online and are easily calculated with online tools but it would have been ace to see it in the video. Thanks for the content Mat, keep it up!

It is not really an estimate because the abilities and prices of tuning parts and choices very a lot. Essential maintenance on any german car will be high if people can't afford then there is no point of looking in to it.

Depends on how much and where you drive it. I have to say it's hard to keep under the speed limit. I've never drove a car that can tease you into giving it gas like this thing.

gotta say im not into cars but watched you do all the mods on this car from the start and really enjoyed watching a big thx and look forward to more of your vids in the future.Stafe safe and wish you all the best

Quality vids and build mat. Keep up the good work on both the cars, i first joined when u bought the S5 and thoroughly enjoyed it all. A lockdown saviour haha

Been a subscriber since the very first TT vid. Seeing your channel grow this much in such a small period of time is absolutely reasonable, and you deserve more than that to be honest. Keep the great content; we’ll keep the nonstop support. Much love Mat.

Top bloke, great channel and a fantastic car, all your reasons for owning that car make perfect sense 😉 keep up the great work.

Thanks for the info! So good to know actual costs from someone who has been there & done that.... Pink top, roll on the MAN sponsorship 🙌🏼

Love the videos man! Keep it up, makes me want to get a project car.

Top man admitting getting free and discounted stuff. As others have said a detailed cost breakdown would have been useful. Keep up the good work dude!

First off, great video and content as always. Hello from Alberta, Canada. I'm 40. I pay 1200 CAD for full coverage insurance, 94 per year to plate it. My 09 s5 has push button start. I did have to replace the door handle sensors for keyless entry. There aren't many places for aftermarket Audi stuff here. If you do find something, its very expensive. I didn't know that the timing guide issue was fixed. Thanks again for the great content. Stay safe.

The only channel I have the bell notification on for. Great content

Great vids Mat, thank you! Im using an s5 since 2016, and i spend about 2500 euro for maintence and service.

Very wholesome content. No clickbait, not afraid to admit mistakes, just content

Yo! Started watching your videos over a month ago now! Save to say I’m hooked, got me wanting S5 god dam it! Dammmmmmmmmm lad keep it up 🤘🏼

Another great video Mat, hope one day I'm making videos on something V8 and petrol! Keep the content flowing

Great video man! Have really enjoyed following the build 😎 Let’s hope all your knocks on wood come through 😅

This guy is entertaining and nice. Compared to the bigger youtubers, this guy puts more work into his vids and cares about his community. Much respect my dude 👍

2 years later and he still does the same.

This is so accurate with the common problems. A5 2008 here and I can say - Yup, had to replace 1 door lock. Yup, had to replace upper arms which are 4 in total. The chain is actually good but what makes noise in my car is the belt tensioner. But thats part of the timing chain. So even the chain itself is good, your engine, transmission, exhaust, everything has to go out of your car. But I never heard of nor had any manual transmission issue myself.

Been here since the beginning and you deserve more subs than you have mate. Keep it up. Positive vibes only!

So Mat.. The big question.. Are you going to raffle it?? Loving the videos.. Thanks👍👍

Another great video with awesome content Mat. I only came across your channel about two weeks ago and pretty much watched all the videos. Perhaps you could talk about the tools you use for the mods and where to buy them? And yes I have subscribed 🤟😂

I have a 2010 s5 4.2 v8. Best advice I can give is don’t cheap out and skip on maintenance.. one thing Audi loves is their maintenance!!! Keep up with and she’ll love ya in return :) such a little amazing car!

Bought myself an S5 on the strength of your videos had it a month and love it

A lot of time for you and your channel Matt ! Been watching awhile now, too lad :)

There is no depth to the sound though when you hear it in person (especially for a v8) as they are muffled and filtered to death. Also the auto gearbox makes the sound very flat and unexciting. Listen to an e.g. TVR Chimera, that's how a V8 should sound.

N/A V8 is music to our ears man! Quality content as usual mate. Keep it up!

Just commenting to say I’ve recently found your channel, and I Jsut wanted to say how entertaining it is to watch you. Followed along the S5 series or whatever 😂 and you have earned another subscriber. P.S I’m 19 and saving up to buy an S5 in the next year. The sound of the N/A V8 is worth all the costs in my opinion

Really enjoy your videos dude. Wish I had your expertise to modify my CL500.

PVC issues are tricky. For me i had hesitation at 2k rpm. Fuel pumps, carb clean, sparks, fuel injectors, 60k miles. So far runs well.

Love the content mate keep it up 👍 one question though how do you get away with running no front plate 😂? I take mine off and get pulled pretty much straight away 😂😂

Fantastic series this S5 has been, I've been glued from the start and loved every minute of each episode. You're a sound guy Matt, I think that's what makes it even more enjoyable to watch. 👍🏻

thanks for the video and keeping us all entertained bro... nice one (06 s4)

Great content! Digg’n it brotha!...

great video.. keep it up. really enjoyed it. i have the A5 in red, but too scared to modify it as i dont want the insurance to increase an also dont want to mess up the car functionality, i would love to modify the car door to open with audi lights showing on the floor, fold out mirrors and some other inspirational stuff.

that sound man , music to my ears

Well done mate. Tnx to be honest. Carry on. Good luck

Top as always Matt. Always enjoy.

You've made a not so good car a great one. Money well spent. If I was 26 again I'd consider buying yours. Keep on enjoying it.👏👏

nope manual are reliable, i have had a s5 for 7 years and no problems with gearbox

Great videos on the S5. I have a 59 plate S5 and love it. I will be taking a different direction to Matt for two reasons: 1. Without discount, and even if I do the work myself, the costs of modding an S5 can mount up very rapidly. 2. The V8 S5s will be something of a dying breed. Normally aspirated, large capacity V8s were a brief flash of wonderful in the 00's. It couldn't last long before the killjoys got their knickers in a bunch and either taxed or legislated the car makers back into the land of boring 4 and 6 cylinder fare. Over time I feel that original, stock V8s will become, like an unmodded Mk1 Golf GTi, increasingly quite rare and difficult to find. I have kept mine completely stock other than running the RS4s 20in alloys rather than the 18/19 inch that were stock for the car. Even my exhaust is OEM (probably the first thing that new owners kick to the kerb). In time I think original V8s will become much more desirable than the later supercharged V6s (in spite of the V6 being arguable the better vehicle). In the land of forced induction a big, breathy V8 will become a king.

The way you did the shots and editing at the start reminded me of a Top Gear review. Can see why you have so many subs

I had a 2010 s5 for my first car, had it for several years and didn't have any issues, just kept up with services and it was great. insurence was just over 3k but was at 1700 when I sold it

Great work Mat. Biggest thing to watch out for will be a failure of the mechatronic resulting in inability to change gears - had to replace this on my 2011 A4 after 7 years, cost around £4000. Ouch.

Just bought one!! Looking at exhaust options 😰🤑🤕.. Love the sound of yours, which exhaust is that?

keep going man !! in front of you is bright career

Only happened to stumble accross a one series episode and got sub’d instantly and went back and watched everything else. The content is absolutely spot on here like and as mentioned here definitely a very likeable relatable guy who hasn’t let the KZread life go to the head. Keep it up and keep smashing it. Can’t wait to see what comes next. More subs than other similar channels and not a mention of fucking patreon in sight 🙌

Hi Matt interesting video. Have you thought about changing the colour of the leather and I enjoyed the video thanks Tim

The true cost is learning to drive chilled like, as fuel goes quickly. I have the manual shift V6 3.2 and love it on the German Autobahn. Will chip her soon to improve the beast! Like the wrap colour and grill bruv! Good job.

Great video mate

Great video as usual! Please, paint those pealing trims inside the S5!!!

Great vid. Interested to find out, how to keep the engine so clean? what do you use to clean it?

Love your channel matt. The whole set up style and way you deliver your content is so relatable. Love all the vids. Would love if you could help me in some way. I currently drive a e92 335d m sport plus, mapped, performance intercooler and Air filter. I'm looking at buying an s5 or waiting a while and trying to get an rs5. After all covid is done anyway we could meet up and have a proper chat about stuff. Id be happy to drive up your way? Cheers Chris

I came across your vids when you first started the s5 project got to say love your content and watched 99% of your vids keep up the great work and vids and fcuk the haters 👍

This project has been so good, love this car

Was there a video on upgrading the MMI or sound system that I missed? My S5 still has a CD player 🤷‍♂️

Not massively expensive, but worth it. Agree with you that £12k for a supercharger ain't worth it. Keep the videos coming, really enjoy watching them!

Sounds awesome man 🤤

Was just waiting for your mrs to turn around in Aldi and say “HOW MUCH!?” 😂😂

Man like Matt on his bmx, fair play mate you've got skills

Been looking around for one. Some nice ones for sale at the min, cheap too. I thought my 3.2 V6 A4 sounded good, that V8 is amazing 👌

The microswitch inside the door lock is really "fun" one. You can get the switch alone and it costs about 3 €. However, to replace it, you need around 4 hours per door minimum. If there was as an upgraded switch that would last, it would be worth doing. Most of the time, it's easier to replace the whole lock (which still takes hours) and the lock body should cost around 70 € if I remember correctly.

Oliver astroliga - seems legit! Love the vids keep em up

Hiya Matt, I’ve been following and enjoying your videos for awhile, I used to have a bmw123 few years ago I got it remapped in brigg in Lincolnshire at map tech, I also had a tt, but the old shape, I’ve got a bmw 116d now in midnight blue, I think I can remap it to nearly 200bhp, I really want my wheels black instead of whatever you call them now, silver? I dunno, can you recommend the best way to do it? Spray or summit, I’m not very clued up really! Powder coated? Also I think I’d like them mat, what do you think?

I never seen a video with the power lose m8 did you ever find out lol nice build tho , I do own one myself and love it also have a Ur quattro in garage tat I am restoring looking forward to getting it finished and back on the road

Love my Audi S5 2010 , i put ArmyTrix Valve-tronic exhaust on it and it sounds so Fucking amazing. I don't even listen to the stereo anymore , witch is Bang & Olefson, just the sweet sound of the exhaust.
