    Thank you for creating these videos. I bought my first Audi A6 last year. I've been watching your videos, so I'll be prepared to maintain my own car. I was surprised how easily the coil packs came out. I've seen others struggle and have to use a special tool. How often do you change the plugs?

      About removing the ignition coils, yes they are very tight. I have strong fingers 😅

      Yes it is tricky and in fact silly. Have a closer look, you will see two tabs on the sides of the hose that comes from underneath. The tabs are not very visible. You have to look closer to locate them. Press them both and they will release the box.

    Hi mate I'm going to let you know how much wasted time you saved me, considering how much work is involved in changing spark plugs, I have a spark plug tool for shallow mounted spark plugs, without this video I would have done all the work to get access to the plugs and then realise I don't have the right extension to get down to the plugs so thanks

    Why on your cars windows not tinted?

      @ThatAfricanGuy  Рік тому

      I prefer it this way. Better visibility. It's also forbidden here unless you have a permit which is complicated and messy to get.

      Here in new Zealand we can tint to 35% I think mine are 25% I think it looks pretty cool on the grey exterior.

      I just watched it. Looks great!!! I like the interior. Looks clean and very solid. I am lusting for an Audi with the brushed aluminium trims in the interior. I think it looks even better than wood. Looks like your cowl cover is missing. Look for a replacement one as soon as you can and install it to prevent leaves and debris from clogging your cowl drains and causing flood inside your cabin. I also noticed that your headliner is sagging. You can fix that with thumb tacks. I have a video about this. I will send you the link in a minute.

      @@ThatAfricanGuy hi mate I just got in contact with VAG auto parts and they told me the B7 has no such covers, I have seen the 1.8T and 2L with the covers on the battery and brake fluid reservoir, but apparently the B7 3.2l Quattro doesn't have them. I'm confused, Im covered for water entering the cabin with the interior filter cover and water entering through the windscreen wipers as it's covered , and I think if I'm correct the filter that runs all the way across the bottom of the windscreen will stop leaves and other rubbish entering the engine bay,
