  • Welcome to another video with the RS4 V8 engine.
    In the last video we bought a spare or repairs engine for this job , stripped it down and sent it to the machine shop. Once everything is back we get to it and we sort out everything to make it right . It was a long process of checking clearance , piston rings , cleaning up everything and making it run. Once the engine was up and running we test drove the car done oil change and the owner finally collected his dream car. Unfortunately there was a problem the next day ....
    thank you for watching

    Its good to see a quality engine build, which is why it costs a lot of money. Dave and you take care with every stage of the construction, plus the running in period under your control should help with the durability of the engine. Why the customer should take a brand new built engine then remap it, i cannot understand. It should have a stock map in it for a few thousand miles, just to make sure there are no unforseen problems, which could lead to yet another rebuild (at the customers expence). Thank you Thomas, for a thorough engine build video. I appreciated it, if not many others did. Great to see quality work done. Kindest regards, Dave W 😊

    Very informative video. I just had to take my engine apart…only 2 days after assembly 🤦‍♂️ all because I managed to get wrong sealant. Instead of Victor Reinz reinsoseal I got reinsoplast. F knows what it’s for but it doesn’t harden, stays liquid forever and is a proper pain in arse to clean off surfaces. Atleast it’s my own car and no issues with wasted time, just pi$$ed off about having to do job twice.

    Remapping an NA engine like that is pointless, it's already producing over 100bhp/litre stock , the gains from a re-map vs. the risk from messing with the OE calibration are just not worth it.

  • @rotorblade9508

    I was wondering what is the break in procedure for these engines
    Aslo, since it’s using higher flow CAT’s it might be the computer doesn’t add enough fuel now. I would add wide band o2 (if not already on the car) and watch what happens under different situations or log them. if there is more power, the fuel enrichment might need to kick in slightly sooner. the knock sensors logging should also help.

    Do you have some sort of oil on the journals when you are measuring with plastigauge? It looks like the caps were moving a lot when measuring, which could give a false reading, showing smaller tolerance than actual, resulting in low oil pressure.
