Traditionally the motor shaft with the commutator (the bit you cleaned with the little wire brush) can be be removed completely. Then placed in a lathe and the ridges gently turned down, we are only talking about 0.2mm. The brushes can usually easily take up the extra space. From your video the blackness of the copper commutator is usually because of faulty or worn brushes that are arcing to the commutator rather than smoothing running round it.

That’s the aluminum stern power ring if I’m not mistaken, but to install it you cut those nubs off and it completely fills the void, which transfers NVH almost like a solid mount.

@PBGarage I can do that. Everyone's setup seems to be different. I think the awe drivetrain stabilizer seemed to help with the driveline tightness back there. Don't know if they make those anymore.

Ticking noise and I was getting low oil pressure light coming on once in a while replaced sender since it was leaking out the connector so replace and no more light but I would get they beep once in a while and then 2 weeks later boom rod out the side of the block on the highway, so I’m going to check it out on the used engine thanks for the vid. What a stupid design
Yep truly a design flaw imo. Some don't even make it to 100kmiles like mine!
Thanks for this video.. hope this works!
Keep us posted!
Great work. I own both models of the B6. Both quattro. I love them dearly but my lord the age of them has me questioning how much I can afford to have them in the shop every quarter for odds and ends. Last was the thermostat and a few coolant lines. In the process they destroyed what was left of my breather hoses so Im in the process of replacing that with some 034 motorsport silicone hose. How about I mail you my avant for a bulletproofing eh? :)
Haha thanks! These 1.8t are surprisingly easy to work on once you figure them out. I miss my 1.8 dearly...
excellent video
Thank you!
How’s the ride quality with the jhms? I really want to drop mine but I drive quite a bit and don’t want to sacrifice the comfort.
It feels like OEM. This is my wife's car, and if it increased any harshness I wouldn't hear the end of it. She didn't notice a change in comfort, and neither did I. A great cost effective solution for lowering it.
I definitely have water intrusion problems (had to repair the wires under the carpet) but I have a drain on the battery somewhere. I’m thinking it might be this module, but the marker lights don’t stay on like you said. However, with the car off and keys out if I hit the turn signal the turn signal light will come on and stay on. Think it’s probably a bad module?
No I don't think it's this module, but I could be wrong. Most VAG vehicles do that when the car is off and you leave the turn singal on. All my audis have a constant beeeeeeeep if I leave a turn signal on. Porsche is an audi which is a VW.
My nephew was able to follow your directions and clean my old blower up with some kind of metal brush and a drill. I'd already bought the new blower from Amazon ( & forgot to send it back). His handy work lasted almost a year. Since I have a new one, I'm not even gonna futs around with trying to refurbish again. Wish me luck replacing it on my own.
Awesome! Love to hear that the video helped you get it done once (and hopefully again).
Could you not have removed the balance weights and blocked the holes yourself?
yes, but that requires a significant amount of grinding, and then some means to press in some bushings. More work than just pulling a used one for me.
Any update on how it performed?
Yeah it’s been great. No performance difference but really cleans up the engine bay.
There's kits on Amazon that have great reviews that cost 1/3rd the price of the ECS Tuning kit, but to order one of those I need to know the proper inside diameter of the cup, and the proper diameter of the OEM bearing.
Don't know off the top of my head, but I'm sure someone out there on the form has an answer.
I am going to sat they went to PB Garage and they screwed up the brake shoe material.
Brake shoe material delamination from corrosion. Super common on 450&451 smarts.
Hey! Quick question im working on my 02 a4 and i was wondering would locking the cams still be necessary if only the crank is locked? Or does that work vice versa only? Thanks in advance!
locking the cams is much more critical than the crank.
mine recently when i lock it, sometimes its not as loud then the sound over time got lower and lower and then it didnt chirp anymore
All signs point to that module! Let us know how it goes.
The single turbo downpipes. Is that the b5 kit from xs power ? O
The kit is from XS power.
so that means the a6 c5 3.0 petrol 220hp from 2001 i bought uses a timing belt cause i couldnt figure it out the seller said it a chain. (probaly didnt know better) but yeah might need to look into that... cause i got no service history after 2013....
Yes you would have a belt driven motor. Lots of people dont know what their engine actually has/use the term interchangeable to simply describe the timing components. Hard for non car people to keep track since VW/Audi bounced around a bit with belts or chains, then mixed the two on some motors/belts for the main and chains for the cams.
@@PBGarage yeah i see i have a belt, jsut toke of both covers on the front a nice thick belt but i got no history on when it was done... belt looks fine not dry, or cracked. but yeah so that be something im gonna do soon. gearbox feels fine but same he told me it was done... it shifts smooth every gear. and okay yeah cause my friend has vw golf 4 v6 2.8, 4 motion and his is chain. i dont hate belt but dont like that u need to change it that sucks and cost alot... and seems like a horrible job om this audi
Lol they dun messed up
Friction material delaminated from the backing plates!
I know they make a bushing that clips around that exact spot. I have one that is on the diff mount that came on a different rear diff I picked up. Kind of an odd looking thing. Feels like hard rubber. I'll see how it feels when the 6 speed conversion is done. Keep up the videos.
That’s the aluminum stern power ring if I’m not mistaken, but to install it you cut those nubs off and it completely fills the void, which transfers NVH almost like a solid mount. I haven’t driven with one but some reviews I read online describe NVH similar to a poly mount. If you remember, once you get your conversion going please let me know how the mount feels!
@PBGarage I can do that. Everyone's setup seems to be different. I think the awe drivetrain stabilizer seemed to help with the driveline tightness back there. Don't know if they make those anymore. I just wonder how much the trans is moving vs rear diff shifting and knocking in those cases. Bit of a domino effect maybe.
I picked up my AWE DTS in 2021 new, but haven’t checked availability since then. I have the rubber mount for it. I ran the poly mount and I didn’t like the NVH. But yeah, everyone has a slightly different setup, so lots of variables at play!
Lol the pad has moved up top 😂
You got it!
*cross eyed* looks good to me boss😂
😂
this guys good, sounds canadian. so many shade tree vids, look for the pros - guys who do it 8 to 10 hours a day, six or seven days a week.
Ottawa Canada up in here lol
Great job, thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Once my motor goes in my 07 a4 ima put a 2.7 in it
Excellent choice 😉 Even just a stage 1 tune or stage 2 makes the 2.7 really fly. After the last dyno session and seeing Braydon’s stage 2 2.7 make 280hp and 350 ftlb at the wheels, it makes me want a 2.7 in my B6 Avant!
Two month ago while driving in highway i get the low coolant in my dashboard , i refill it with water without antifreeze and it again loose more then 300 gr in 30 km drive city . I send it to mechanic he told me that might have a leak in radiator , check it but nothing , after he told me that my fan dont worked after temp goes 92 celcius , he told me he fix it ,but again i keept loosing water the same , 1 week ago i sent it to another and i replace the cup and i add it for the first time antifreeze , i drive 30 km and in the morning i saw it the level was as it was filled , after i drive in mountain 20 km and again was ok , 3 days ago was for a drve in city no more then 15 min and when i seen in the morning it had less water but a very very little difference . Today i was in drive 80km and when i get home i let the car get cold for a hour i was the temp was 50 celcius , i seen the water was 3 mm down max and when i remove the cup it went to max . I dont know if this is ok , if the cup was the problem or it does has any problem again , please someone explain me
Sounds like it could have been an issue with the cap but keep an eye on it. Does it start ok from cold? Any white smoke in the exhaust?
@@PBGarage no nothing , everything its ok for start and no smoke
@@PBGarage im doubting that maybe i put too much water and now the sistem has loose it to gat it to normal or not ?
@R3MILI so I would wait and keep on eye on coolant level.
@@PBGarage , just seen it , it lower than max , lower than it was . Might be maybe the cup has to be with bigger pression ? one more question, the mechanic only added 1 litrer of concentrate coolant , is it ok ?
Mine is definitely forged crank 😅
Sweeet! Can you share the numbers on the sticker? Should be a date code of manufacture, and a 4 digit code like 0758 or something.
@@PBGarage where would that be at again?
@vw_2.5 there should be a white sticker on the valve cover.
It says 0735
@vw_2.5 awesome thanks!
I was able to just clean mine out a few years ago. The grooves weren’t as deep as yours and the brushes were still making contact. Video up on my channel. They can be cleaned
Nice!
I was wondering when we would see another video from you, whatever happened to the other two 2.7t builds that were supposed to be done by the other guys? Awesome video, keep em comin!
was just about to ask the same question, last we saw it had the motor in the car but thats about it?
Thanks for the feedback! Probably won’t have too many more videos on this project coming out, I’m just about to start posting about my next project though, a B6 Avant. As for the STK build, I can say some light progress is being made, I’ll see if I can convince him to make an update video. The XSPower build hasn’t progressed at all, I would say interest has shifted to the VW 2.5L platform. If Sean and Blake see this maybe they can provide a more detailed list of excuses… I mean, update 😂😂
@@PBGarage Awesome response, i look forward to the list of excu... i mean updates to come!
@@PBGarage no excuses I just have a lot of work to do on the car, the subframes were rough and I ordered a new front, still need to clean up the rear and reinstall. Don’t have a big port intake manifold yet. The guys I dropped it off with to have it CNC machined still haven’t delivered. So I gotta eat that and either machine it myself or order one from ProjectB5. And yes I’ve been playing with a bunch of other stuff too but I’ve got a new garage to work in now so hopefully I can pound out some work and get back on the S4.
@@PBGarageoh! And after seeing your first dyno video I ordered a set of RS6 K24s to run instead of the billet K04s. But they’ve been in for a while so I can’t blame that either 😂
you nailed it ... congratz... ''scrap'' silicon hoses maybe more robust
Thanks! Never thought of using silicone hose material, something I may consider if this rubber fails at some point.
thank you very much !!
You’re very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Awesome to see the update!!! Your car is sooo clean … mine has been sitting in the garage due to an electrical issue I’ve yet to solve :-(. I’m no good with wiring.
Thanks! It was / is a lot of work to keep it clean, but it's my life's pride and joy so I have no issues putting the effort in.
