After rebuilding the crash damaged Audi S3 for my friend liam it was time for some performance modifications! Starting with the exhaust. I fitted a valvetronic @STONEEXHAUST with an ebay downpipe and the results speak for themselves, but then i was hit with the dreaded coolant problem!

Woke up this morning to watch Mat Armstrong videos....it's dinner time now 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂addictive right?
Good times, i love the vibes he lets off, full of excitement, enthusiasm and the workman ship is outstanding. Love his vids
@@johnchadbone great to see how far he's come from when he first started too! 👏🏾
@@KOTalk 100%, iv gone back quite far haha amazing how far hes come
Get a job
You should definitely do these longer videos Mat! Love the S3 looks great.
Exactly!
You know I was talking to my brother about this yesterday, your videos are super nice, yet not long enough 🤣
Couldn't agree more. When I open UA-cam these days it's just to see if you've put another video up. S3 looks 👌. I have a 2015 Audi A5 black edition 177 Quattro. Looking at the work you have done on the S3 is inspiring! May send the pics in if I get around to working on mine.Thanks for all the hard work. Been here from the start and it is quality to see how the channel has grown. #HWBT
This is why Matt is the best car you tuber out here. Diagnoses and fixes all self taught! Hats off to this guy! - it’s easy to get cars and send them to others to modify then drive them around. What Matt does is a whole other level! Fair play!
The hole in the exhaust is completely normal, allows for water/condensation to come out
Beat me to it!
Exactly i have the same😁
Beat me to it! See this all the time!
Learn something new everyday 🤷♀️
@@MatArmstrongbmx good job bro 😁😁
If you have any more coolant issues check the coolant control solenoid/switching valve, just had the exact same issues on my s4 & changing the water pump plus thermostat didn’t fix it but that did. Gotta love audis
The looks and sounds cool mate. That water pump was a complete nightmare, something mustn't of been plugged in properly. Just bought myself a S5 4.2 V8 with back box delete and we both know what they sound like Matty! 👌
They are indeed great; see mine below.

@@hvmondeck Subscribed mate 👍
Cheers mate! 😊👍
There is definitely a passion there concerning cars.
I have never had confidence in cars that have been fixed with the sort of damage that you deal with, but the mechanical work you do is amazing and I often wonder if main dealers or private small garages have the same enthusiasm and care of vehicles that you show on your videos.
The thing is when u undo the fuel lines on pretty much any engine you gotta crank it a bit longer cuz it takes couple of secounds for fuel to come to engine from the tank so that u didnt have to take everything apart again other than that ive been followin u since tt maan you make a very good content
Similar thing to when replacing a fuel filter, takes a few seconds for fuel to come through to the engine
just open and close the drivers door on these a few times primes the hpfp
@@BlackboxlProductions or use VCDS to prime the pump before starting.
Just completed the valve cover re-seal jobby 😅 pig of a job , ment that the fuel vacuum pump& hpfp had to come off so had also to remove a fuse from engine bay & a fuse under the steering wheel fusebox to depressurise the fuel lines. Rmember to put the fuses back upon completion lol
Not sure if they forgot the fuse if they took em out ?
What a f*****g legend. This guy came from nothing to now successful. Love his content. Keep up the good work. Many more to come 🙏🏼
I’m sure he was/is a successful bmx freestyle rider. 👍🤘
Doesn't he work for a car tunning company too ? Possibly ggr?
@@mrrallyeman389 he used to work for mallery performance I think
As a audi tech it’s always interesting to see how other people do things on their cars, but the amount of times I kept saying you don’t need to remove that or you could do it a different way to make it easier. You done a great job though, well done 👍
Haha same here
These longer videos are still really easy to look true without skipping👌🏼 love the content mate en definitely crack on with the longer videos!!
Mate you absolutely amaze me every time..looks really well given the state it was in in the beginning keep up the good work ..can't wait for the c63 updates that's gonna be a good one
Once again a terrific build! Loving this one once again!
That water pump job was pure pain. Great video bro
“replaced it with uhh.. well a brand new, second hand one” 15:02. This is why we love you Mat haha legend
Perfect length video!! 25-30 is awesome. Feels like an episode a bit more than a quick 12 minute rush
Highs and lows no cover ups 👍🏻👌🏻👏🏻 quality channel
New exhaust looks mint. Nice video. Keep up the good work.
To check the water pump flow take the return feed off the top of the coolant bottle unscrew the cap poke it in and turn on the engine. No flow = water pump or blockage etc…
i watched again chris fixs video on exhaust repairs and as he said, the hole is to remove water from the exhaust to not create rust
I be the same way, I also be watching him at work! He has me ready to rebuild me some smashed cars
I'll say this your channel is never boring + you learn loads👍
Wooh! 16 minutes think this is the soonest I’ve watched one of your videos!! Love it keep up the great work!
Bro, love your channel... Can your car competition go as far as RSA🇿🇦 hope to win one of your projects
Jaysus, what a nightmare to get to that water pump!
Awesome sound from that exhaust. Love the 3am sneak home mode.
Never actually heard of that brand.
Great job mat, really like the longer duration of the video 👍🏻
This has to be the best-looking s3 I've ever seen. Keep up the great work Mat!
I got mad love for Audi😍 and Mat did an awesome job on this one..love and respect all the way from Namibia🙏
Paid $2100 USD for this service on my 2015 S3. That's awesome you were able to do it yourself.
The more I see the purple with the gloss black the more I fall in love with it. It’s stunning.
Simply awesome Matt, a lot of graft but well worth the effort, Liam please don't crash it 🙏
This Audi s3 I started to watch it since day one till the end. Mart , you have done the right thing for your friend 👌👌👏👏I'm so proud for leom
That upper body line makes me love the Audi 3's.
One of the cleanest builds so far mat! Looking forward to the range build!
Plate game strong 💪
Yet another great vid Mat, hope Liam realises what a legend you are mate, keep the long vids going 👍👍
That exhaust sounds awesome , as you said it’s transformed the car ,, keep valves open mat
Epic upload that, well done Mat!👊
Have to say, even though it wouldn’t be my choice of colour that Audi is looking the dogs bollox.
I think all the cars you complete should have your name in the rear quarter window, just like Yiannimize does with his cars.
(PS: You’ll need to tone down the exhausts driving through Monaco else you’ll get them confiscated and put in a compound).😉
I think I just saw you at the Channel Tunnel. In convoy. Lambo, 350z, and this Audi! Have a fun trip.
turned out a good job mat worth while as for the hole in the back box i believe its to allow condensation build up to exscape, for future jobs mat when removeing fuel lines it allows air in the lines and the fuel to run back therefore you gotter crank it longer or prime it more then once also to prevent air locks you can bleed them but iirc ive seen you doing this on some project so maybe its just been along ass day doing that water pump and not just the 20 so mins we just see mat bu t its payed off now im not 100% sure about the tones in all modes but improvement, great vid awesome work keep going,
I also have this hole in my exhaust on my 2017 s3
The way that thing sits look fantastic! Very nice aggressive look without being over the top. It look perfect!
You deserve a lot more subscribers, greetings from the Netherlands!
Groetjes
Keep up the great work lads
Great work!! these are so common to leak. you can remove it without removing the intake. remove the throttle body and access it all from underneath :)
1 step back, 2 steps forward!! well done, it sounds great!
no way you said an s3 sounds bad.i love the sound of s3/rs3
My Audi S3 has a scorpion exhaust. but still it sounds amazing it’s worth the hard work
the reason it didnt start was because it didnt had any fuel pressure after you removed the fuel lines. just turn on ignition a few times and let the pump work for a bit before startup! :)
purple wrap !!!!!!!I falling in love
Valves open sound like me after a liter of whole milk, incredible build well done
That's a lot of work mate. 👏👏👏
I'll tell you right now that water pump / thermostat leak is VERY common on 2.0T's. I get them a lot at our dealership.
The stressed look on your face when it wouldn’t start… 🤣🤣 think you were right though Liam was doing it wrong! 👍🏻
Love this video matt showing how it's not all straight forward sometimes
Hope Liam's kid sleeps well in the car lol.
The High pressure fuel pump must see fuel in order to work properly, if there's air in the line between HPFP and LPFP in the tank, it will airlock and not start. The trick is to crack the fuel line and get all the air out
FYI it’s not in the s3 build playlist 👍🏻 love the content
Matt you legend!! Keep up the great work!!🙏
I’d like this exhaust for my s3 but worried about it passing MOT emissions
I did that a couple times too and it’s also possible without removing the inlet and the air ventilators, I just used a mirror to see the bolts, but that’s a way too great job 👍🏼
“Brand new second hand one “ love it
I loved replacing these when I was a tech at Audi! You do not have to remove the manifold to get it out...I've got some tips and tricks that make it much quicker and easier!
I think the hole is mint to be in the exhaust I had it in my golf's old exhaust and my friends golf had it too
Quality video mate, that water pump job looked like doing a 1000 piece jigsaw blindfolded 🤣🤣 rather you than me
Yesss another amazing video my dude💪🏽 keep it up hard work pays off and you’re walking proof!!!!!
That four pot is just a fart machine haha 😂
I’d let him do anything with my car that’s how much I trust this guy he knows so much about cars and how make them look aggressive
Another tough job, you are getting well known for the tough jobs, J&D projects mentioned you in there last vlog. At the end the boss was trying to help one of his staff out with a repair to car door window which was not going to well, when he mentioned you, lol
I like the stock sound
Fuel ran back & caused a wee air lock (caused by disconnected fuel lines)
Cars looking amazing👌
How is this series free, I love it
you should slap a chameleon tint on this it would look 🔥
I doubt you’ll see this, but I remember doing the cat on my 2009 diesel Rocco and a 105 pd a3, nightmare on axle stands on my drive, didn’t touch the subframe just a couple hours on my own twisting and turning till I got it out
Sick 🤙 love the sound with the valves open 😍
Used to deal with that all the time at work, buy yourself some subframe aligners, and the holes to drain away built up moisture, secondary water pumps are dodgy on anything VAG to
All about the tenacity! 💪🏆
Done exactly same to mine downpipe and cat back and aww got rid of the OPF 👍
Damn he can't even drive straight, lol. Enjoy your videos cant wait for what the future holds. Keep up the amazing work.
Please keep those long videos coming.
Had the same problem with water pump on my tfsi engine
At that drive by before the straight pipe the car was saying its owner's name: Liiiaammmmmmmmmm 🤣🤣🤣🤣
caramel, the wheels off your Mazerati would look dope on this baby
Matt I have a suggestion why don’t you show the cars new exhaust outside rather than being indoors! 1) it’ll sound more real world sound not amplified, as the exhaust sound is bouncing around the unit.
2) Also we don’t drive indoors unfortunately 😂
3) The emissions aren’t good for your health Matt & i’m worries for your health mate
I've been contemplating one of these over my M140i purely for size and 5 door with a newborn but I can't bring myself to do it quite yet.
Another decent vid, loving the carbon quad pipes 👍🏽👌🏽
Man..i heard in my mind all night bumpar bumpar bumpar:) you got me there
I have the same bumper and the vent mesh fell too. I simply filled them with black plastic panels as they're not needed and actually increase drag (they're filled on the LMS cars).
I went for a bonnet exhaust for mine though :D Looks gorgeous in that purple!
They have radiators behind these grills and I wouldn’t want to block the airflow to them 🤷♀️
@@MatArmstrongbmx If you look inside where the mesh go there is actually a track for the airflow to follow which starts from the smaller holes, the one closest to the central grill.
Those are designed to slow down the air and let it expand, which cools it, before it passes through the radiators.
My S3 is stage 2 and has driven thousands of miles like that without ever having a cooling issue.
The mesh just here for show, cos they look cooler but not needed and actually not as efficient.
Why the LMS car also have the radiator area partially covered instead of fully open. More efficient and reduce drag.
@@MatArmstrongbmx where did you get the waterpump from? i've got a 2015 golf R which needs the waterpump replacing due to a leak as well.
Hats off to you bud 👏 👍 well done keep it up
You drove past me today in the lambo near blaby roundabout sounds beautiful 💙
I fitted on by myself on a TTS, had to remove the prop shaft and didn’t need to drop the subframe
The pop on that purple 😍😍
This audi is a beast brooo
If you wanna hear full redline limit on the older Audi you need to turn on ebrake move the shifter in between park and reverse and rev the car and you’ll hit redline without a rev limiter
Exhaust sounds like I’ve been on the toilet 😂 love the vids as always mate.
Yes, this car needs to get louder !!!
Matt that finished a beautiful build 👍🏼👍🏼 Liam is a lucky guy
This guy has literally the best content in this genre
Thanks so much
I once changed the intake manifold on my 2.0tsi scirocco and it had a hard time starting like yours. I done everything correctly like you and i think it struggled to get the air out the fuel lines and can take a while. Once it started it ran like new
You can change the thermostat hose, without Talking of the inlet manifold by the way 😅just a bit scatchy, but faster.
Nice Video👍🏿
And for taking the toothbelt on, just losen the water pump, and taking the belt on, and than screw the pump with the belt on back together.
Them welds look perfect, lovely golden colour and beading. Very skilled craftsmen-ship. Thumbs up from a welder.
