- My Audi A7 has been in the Shop basically for over 2 weeks trying to figure out what was wrong. Turns out in the end it was the PCV Valve & a Crossover Pipe that they replaced. Hopefully this solves the issue.
Lmk if ya'll enjoyed!

Volkswagen auto group products have some weird ways they design the assembly of their automobiles great when they work hell when they don’t …you got the garage get you some tools and start wrenching yourself bro 😎
Yeaa definitely man!
I hope that do the trick, that pcv valve is the last thing I would have thought of…. But you back !!!
Beautiful car but it can become a money pit really fast. I had an A6 3.0T. The engine went out twice. Coolant issues abound. I drive a Beemer now, no problems.
Yupp! Still love them though 😭
Depending on model year. These engines are very durable and people running stage 2+ tunes running over 250k miles on them and still running. maintenance is key and buying right model years.
These b8-b8.5 platforms are great as long as you get regular oil changes, change all fluids when you're supposed to and replace parts. PCV, Breather kit, thermastat and waterpump all should be changed around 100k miles. If you do it yourself and have the tools all this will cost around 1k in parts. Add spark plugs to this list too. After this next big thing will be timing chains which can last up to 200k miles. $1500 part and if you have a shop install probably another $1500 in labor.
Control arms, can go which are about $700 in parts. Which idk for the build quality of these cars I believe is worth the investment. My 2016 kia vs my 2016 sq5 feel remarkably different.
This being stated if you're not going to do the work yourself and are not mechanically inclined. Id suggest buying a OBD2 to scan your car constantly. Shops will charge a good amount for any of this to be done. Audi prices in Atlanta I think is like $250 a hour. Euro specialists here are not far behind. If you buy the parts yourself youll save huge.
I have a 2016 a7 and had to get that changed too. Such a terrible design by Audi to put it under the supercharger.
Exactly! It really is tbh 🤦♂️
I got a 2013 A7...I had the valve cover gaskets, oil filter holder gasket, PVC valve, DTC for PVC valve, oil separator/crankcase breather valve, upper & lower intake gaskets, 6 injector seal kits, coolant pipe, and coolant X2 all replaced!!! Cost me $6440...😭😭😭😞 I just bought the car August 2023...I knew it might need some work done due to the age of the car but DAMN!!
Damnnnn that’s a lot of work! How much miles does the car has?
@@malikaudi Just over 157,000 miles
@@dozsh12 damn, didn’t have to do all that to mine thankfully! Hopefully nothing does wrong again man!
@@malikaudi Thank you! Me too... praying this is it for at least a long while. I'm ready to finish my upgrades. Ordering cold air intake and 9" screen Friday. Got to wait until August to get wheels and suspension due to this maintenance hit. Good luck with yours and your car looks great! Like that black on black.
@@dozsh12 Thanks man! Need to lower mine too, and post some videos when you get your mods together. Wanna see yours as well!
Yo bro you ever thought about installing and programming some paddle shifters on to the steering wheel? That would be fire
Yo I thought about it, just dont know how to go about doing it. Got any ideas?
@@malikaudi idk but there’s a bunch of mfs doing it on a g37x Infiniti on yt it’s prolly the same process fr

Have you found out whats up with the 7? Mine is in the shop right now getting control arms and lower wishbones done. Hope yours is a somewhat easy fix brother.
Yo, It was the PCV Valve that was bad, on top of some coolant hoses going bad too. Hopefully yours gets out the shop soon!
How much they charge you to get that done on yours?
@malikcodling good to see yours is done brother. I just picked mine up from Audi this past Thursday, set me back 2.5g's but there aren't any reputable shops I've found in my area I trust for euros yet. Haha
@@Chuckworth_F7 lol yea man, Audi is quite expensive. But yea good to see your back. You should post some videos of yours on your Channel!
@malikcodling haha yeah they can cost a bit, im looking at doing a muffler delete next, just put an intake on mine. Might start putting some vids on the channel, who knows !
Go true that rn wit my 16 A7
Yea man it sucks!
hi where did you get the speaker from?
