Great to see all jobs completed on the RS4 Dean, it's been a great series and a real test on your patience I am sure. Look forward to seeing the final video on this series, what an awesome car thanks Dean for you patience and determination.
brought and fitted this rad 9 months ago for precaution, athou the fins aren't as dense compare to the original one, but it still does the job with a great value.
I was wondering how you were going to address any oil loss from doing the change over but all covered . Great article. Can't believe Audi parts prices: more like Porsche where an OPC charged me £1200 to replace 2 air conditioning condensers on my 997.1 in 3/16. I recall in when in 1997, a year I bought my A3 Sport from my local VW Audi dealer I was sent correspondence that Audi were now to become a separate dealership within the VW Audi Group and a plush new showroom & service department opened in Liverpool. With all the platform sharing the change was just an excuse to charge Audi owners a premium for the same part sold at a Skoda/Seat garage next door.
It's great to see the RS4 finally finished Dean, sorry but I had a little chuckle when you were struggling to get in and out of the car, she sounds sooooo nice can't wait to see the test drive now its finished 👍👍👍👍
We have had our 2001 Passat since 2004 now on 190.000 miles have replaced the clutch and flywheel at 186.000 cost £550.00 and the front subframe 3 yrs ago. Best car i have owned just keep's going. These were the best of the Passat made up to 2005, still fetch strong money if under 80.0000 miles .If your keeping it it's worth the repair cost.
Thanks for another great interesting video and some tips on saving money especially the cost of that oil cooler from Audi (did they wear striped jumpers and a mask !!)
Sounds superb when giving it a bit of a rev. Also, maybe some pipe insulation cut down the middle could be attached to the lift post edges to make life easier/stop damage to the doors?
I had the same problem with my c5 rs6, I can't remember what the cost from audi / tps was for the pipes and cooler but I do remember how much I laughed at them! I ended up buying two separate coolers and got pirtek to make me some pipes! Worked out so much cheaper and fair better quality!
Any decent hydraulic hose shop can knock up those pipes. The hard pipe is a little expensive but the whole lot should be max £150. Probably less if you find a cheap shop.
I did speak to them, they said I would need to send them pictures of the couplings to see if they could make anything. That’s just not going to work... as I would be stripping the car sending pics. Then wait a few days for anything to happen which blocks the ramp up. Was just easier to get them from Audi 😥
Not sure what is wrong with your passat , but I am just about to scrap a 1.9tdi 2002 estate if it is any good to you ? Great video btw and glad you got the leak sorted and that's another one finished. 👍
I wanted a new turbo for RS Turbo in 1997. For a giggle I went to Ford and they wanted £750 plus vat in 1997 😯 So I went to my local turbo specialist £330.
You've got way more patience with this car than I would have. It would have been gone quite some time ago and I would have put the cash into the GTI. Imagine if you didn't have the knowledge and had to pay someone else? Especially with those bloody prices from Audi
Can I send you my C5 RS6 lol 😂 it just keeps having problems the latest was it just cut out whilst driving, has battery power as all lights etc come on, but when you turn the key there’s a clunk at the front end but I get nothing in response to it turning over , anyone any ideas, the car has cost a bomb rebuilt the ⚙️ box last year that was £4,500
Dean, surely you know someone in the hydraulics game, whether it be Pirtek, or CAT or some other that can make up hoses a damn site cheaper than you're paying from main dealers?
No longer own an Audi: I did for years, culminating with a Q7, and the last service it had at a newly refurbished dealer had dozens of staff, number plate recognition, automatically opening workshop doors you drive into, a barista, free everything and Wi-fi.. I wasn’t impressed: all I could think of was how much I was paying for all this unnecessary crap. Asi said, I no longer own an Audi.
Not even joking its an absolute shed its going to spend most of its remaining life getting fixed & shifted from owner to owner once each one gets fed up of spending money on it. This channel is great but its also a million reasons not to buy a german car absolute expensive unreliable pieces of junk.

I'm sure you know, but putting a tight belt in some hot water just prior to fitting can also help Dean.

Please make content on the Passat. Too many people junk them because of the repair cost.

The grill on the right hand side as you were looking at it was falling out on the bumper. Needs clipping back in. 😊

Darren at Radtec is a top guy...... They used to do all our racing rads when I worked at Eurotech
I had the same problem with my c5 rs6, I can't remember what the cost from audi / tps was for the pipes and cooler but I do remember how much I laughed at them!

Great videos;
from an rs4 owner these are helpful 👍👍
Nice one Dean I cannot believe how much that oil cooler was from Audi it’s a rip off and that rad tec cooler it’s a no brainer great video 👍👌
Any decent hydraulic hose shop can knock up those pipes. The hard pipe is a little expensive but the whole lot should be max £150. Probably less if you find a cheap shop.
So many different rads ! Audi parts prices are just insane probably why so many get written off after even a mild shunt. Great video as usual.
These RS4 videos have been fantastic, thank you for all your efforts 👌🤗
For future reference Pirtek will make those hoses. May be worth phoning for a price. They even have a mobile service.
I did speak to them, they said I would need to send them pictures of the couplings to see if they could make anything. That’s just not going to work... as I would be stripping the car sending pics. Then wait a few days for anything to happen which blocks the ramp up. Was just easier to get them from Audi 😥
is that common oil leak at the front same for the S4 V8 B7 ?
I think i have the same problem 🤦🏽
Love these type of videos. I’m learning so much from all of you guys.
Much as I love the idea of an RS4, the eye watering cost of ownership would put me off, even if I could afford one. Spot on video dude 👍😎
how about a table for your clean new parts, instead of the floor?
Not sure what is wrong with your passat , but I am just about to scrap a 1.9tdi 2002 estate if it is any good to you ? Great video btw and glad you got the leak sorted and that's another one finished. 👍
I reckon you need to start practising the dukes of Hazzard style entry to the car....great vid!
Really Looking forward to seeing the gti getting to 100% and tuning 👍🏻
I,m in the market for an Audi S1 now for the Mrs, but with you talking abt Audi parts prices i,m having 2nd thoughts 🤔
Looking forward to the driving video. Make sure you give it full right foot!
I can tell you enjoyed blipping that throttle. Must be the boy racer in you still! I bet you are pleased to finally put this one to bed.
The RS4 looks and sounds fantastic!
Car looks and sounds great, nice job Dean.
Just a small point: always remove the labels; they encourage rust.
Manufacturers uplifting prices on parts they buy in? Never thought they did that LOL Good video as usual and helpful if you own an Audi RS4.
Great job mate. 🙏
What are you doing about the corrosion on the door?
Dark side developments will be right up your street fella they make some “rad stuff “ 🤣
That is an absolutely beautiful sound of the exhaust note Dean
Sounds sweet Dean great job.
The Golf looks mint! 🤩🤩
I wanted a new turbo for RS Turbo in 1997. For a giggle I went to Ford and they wanted £750 plus vat in 1997 😯 So I went to my local turbo specialist £330.
Excellent work and thanks for sharing this with us take care
Sweet end to the beast videos Dean, nice work. 👍🏽😎
Oil leaks are one of my biggest pet peeves always such a nightmare to fix
Yep my A3 is pissing from the copper crush wash on turbo oil feed not fun
Always enjoy Deanos videos 📹

You've got way more patience with this car than I would have. It would have been gone quite some time ago and I would have put the cash into the GTI. Imagine if you didn't have the knowledge and had to pay someone else?
Especially with those bloody prices from Audi
I’m sure I saw a drop of oil on the left coupling?
That was a drop of copper grease 👍🏽
Did you clean the oil off?
flat battery made me laugh :) Great video as always mate
Legend as always!!
Can I send you my C5 RS6 lol 😂 it just keeps having problems the latest was it just cut out whilst driving, has battery power as all lights etc come on, but when you turn the key there’s a clunk at the front end but I get nothing in response to it turning over , anyone any ideas, the car has cost a bomb rebuilt the ⚙️ box last year that was £4,500
Awesome sounds!!!!
about how many hours did this take you?
@saving salvage Is there an update?
Looking and sounding good
I would keep that car. I can't imagine finding something much sweeter than it.
Can’t you get the pipes made cheaper ? 👍
I got a oil cooler for my b6 Passat for 80 quid from euro parts.
lol
That sounds great 👍👍
Did you ever manage to sell any cars yet
The RS3 has gone 😥
@@SavingSalvage had to go man, bigger and better projects as your channel grows. It is a shame as it was the OG but that’s life.
Not surprised, after all it did beat that new S3 😆😋
Great video as always, keep doing what your doing 😎😎😎👍👍👍
now that makes me very angry lol next time leave it on charge 🤭🤭 great vid as always
Audi Oil Cooler: £1100 or now accepting either an arm and leg or your first born 😆
Keep up the great content. Happy Days ; )
Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻
Blimey, I thought 300 quid was a bit steep Lmao.😂
Where’s the new s3 gone ?
Dean, surely you know someone in the hydraulics game, whether it be Pirtek, or CAT or some other that can make up hoses a damn site cheaper than you're paying from main dealers?
Yes probably, but if I’m honest I’m struggling for time at the moment and It was just an easier option. 🤦🏼♂️
You could possibly get the OE oil cooler re-cored for even less than the cost of the aftermarket one as well?
that black grill looks silly. Stock is best
subscribed bro gj hope I don't have to do this anytime to mine ! that rs4 life !!!!
Brilliant content. 👏
Sounds sweet
No longer own an Audi: I did for years, culminating with a Q7, and the last service it had at a newly refurbished dealer had dozens of staff, number plate recognition, automatically opening workshop doors you drive into, a barista, free everything and Wi-fi.. I wasn’t impressed: all I could think of was how much I was paying for all this unnecessary crap.
Asi said, I no longer own an Audi.
Are you selling the Rs4 and how much
Why not just weld them together since you have to replace them anyway.
Lol y foods diet for you lol 😂 good job !
That is one epic car!
Great its done 👍😀
You have endless patience..I think I would dump that car now..enough is enough..time for anew owner!! 🙄🙄😃😨😨
Great video, still my first purchase after my big lottery win ,😆
That's a beast!
Top upload again 👍
Lol at all the coolers
Beast 😍
80 obviously on the autobahn or track 😂
Any good hydraulic place should be able to replicate them hoses
sweet
👍🏼🚙
Struggling to squeeze in the car...? Too much Y-food maybe?
I need one of these audis
Kick myself every time I think on the rs6 I passed up 2 year ago
Sounds evil
👍👍🇦🇺
2 many adverts
🤣 battery
Shill wtf radiator food in a bottle gummy
YEP AUDI RIP OFF ?
very waffely. dont tell us how you are going to do- show us as you do it and talk over or add commentary
Audi are rip offs one reason wudnt buy audi even there cars over priced compare to bmw was goin to buy audi a5 quattro but sooner have bmw 428 m sport
Better made car thats why.. (Audi) I mean.
VAG modern cars are CRAP, overpriced expensive, problematic bottomless money pits. Please do some 'modern classics' like that Passat.
Audi and VW are such boring cars,they nearly all look the same,why not do some more exciting ones ????
Not even joking its an absolute shed its going to spend most of its remaining life getting fixed & shifted from owner to owner once each one gets fed up of spending money on it. This channel is great but its also a million reasons not to buy a german car absolute expensive unreliable pieces of junk.
