- AUDI A6 3.0 TDI V6 (C6 2005) oil change tutorial. This is my attempt on changing the oil myself, after they told me the price at the dealer.
It went well and I enjoyed working on my car, so some more videos should follow.
!!! MAKE SURE TO POUR SOME OIL INTO THE NEW FILTER AS WELL, TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE DURING THE FIRST START UP !!! - Авто та транспорт
This is how I like my car to be worked on. Very good and careful job.
Thanks a lot.
I own the AUDI A6 with BMK engine (3.0 TDI) more than 9 years (since 2009). Here some advice: after you replace the filter and drain plug, fill no more than 7 liters. Than start the engine, wait for a minute and stop the engine. Only after that check the oil level! I don't know what engine do you have, but my BMK motor have volume of 8,2 liters - it is full oil volume if the engine is absolutely drained (empty, no oil at all) which is never happened. Little bit more than half a liter always stays in the engine after oil drain. So be carefull do not overfill! All 9 years that I change the oil, I fill no more than 7,5 liter. Filling the oilfilter it's not necessery at all (may be on some much older models it is ok, but not for our cars). And do not bother about timing chains;)
You are right. I actually pour half a liter at the time and check the dip stick all the time, when it's nearly full.
@Jakub Ulbrych which brand for quiet operation would you suggest? ty
Just fill your new filter up with oil before putting it back on the car and then it will start perfectly !!!
You´re right, I´ll do it next time. Thanks.
Same advice from me too. But there is a longer story to that ...
Fill the gap between the filter and the housing. When you start the car it has enough oil in there to send it to the timing chain tensioners. if there ain't enough oil there you risk of timing chain slippage and then comes disaster.
In a bulgarian Audi forum one guy said that that's exactly what happened to his A6 after an incorrect oil change. Up to that point he had no issues with the chain tensioners - no ticking sounds at cold stars.
But after that oil change one of the four chains slipped and the pistons and the valves collided.
Wow. I wouldn´t like that to happen... I´ll fill the filter housing next time. We´ll see if there is any difference. Thanks for useful comment.
I forgot to tell that that happened at 380 000 km. No ticking sounds of the chains up to that point
@@stefanstoilov9773 Audi A6 c6 are known to have chain tensioner problems you think it's because of bad filter setup?
If you've got the engine undershield off it's always worth getting the pressure washer out and giving everything a good hose down before refitting.
I'd be carefull with the pressure washer around the engine, though... And the car was not very high off the ground.
Thanks.... but how did u reset the service due light on the dashboard
I went to a local garage since I do not have an OBD tool. The reset took them like 2 minutes and was super cheap.
Hi, nice video. Do you have any complain with the ramps? I want to buy exactly your model but I fear they are a little too steep for a VW Polo. Should I worry for touching the plastic protection near the wheels? Thank you
Hello there. The ramps are just about OK for my car. When I put them in front of the wheels, they are almost touching the bumper. It all comes down to how low is your car and how long is the overhang. I thing you should be fine with VW Polo but that is just a guess.
Ty sikovky jste držel dobře při povolovani, ale při utahování je musíte otočit o 180’ .
Užitečné, díky.
pekny video, koupil jsem ted a5 kde je taky 3.0tdi, zkusim si ten olej vymenit taky sam, jen se podivam do papiru jestli tam mam stejnou specifikaci jako ty
Díky. Jesli je to stejná generace toho motoru, bude to skoro stejný postup, typ oleje i množství. Tak ať se ti to podaří, nic na tom není.
Hi again! How did you managed to get the car off the ramps without starting the engine? Thanks for your reply!
Hey! I just released the parking brake (e-brake works even when the engine is off) and than just let it go down very slowly off the ramps while pressing on the brake pedal. The car started to move when the brake was released, didn't need a push...
KedlubenX Ok, I bought a different ramp type. When the car is at the top of the ramp there is an horizontal segment of almost 20 cm keeping the front wheels in resting position. Your ramp is different and is sloped along the entire lenght, even at the bottom end. I am trying to figure out how to push my car down without being helped by someone. I will try to remove the ramps manually when the car is in park mode and the hand brake is activated. Considering that the hand brake exercises most of the force on the rear axle and the front wheels are free to move I should be able to do the trick. I'm keeping my fingers crossed! Thank you for your reply!
Or, try to stop the car on the sloped part of the ramps (if your brakes are OK), do not go all the way up.
KedlubenX Good tip! Thank you!
When front of the car on the rump and back of the car on the floor there is no level and possibly some of old oil stays in the engine, cannot be drying out completely . When you top up new one it will mix with a older one.
Hello! Ive just bought this car at 210 000 km done it seems that car was well maintained, I find your video pretty useful as I will try to change DIY oil myself using your video as a guide. What are the other things I should check on this car, some common problems about it, timing chain? How do I know the timing chain has to be changed? What other repairs like this shown on this video can I do so my car is kept well running, any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
Hi there. I´m glad my videos are helpful. You should definitely change other fluids, too. The gearbox, diff, transfer case. Change the fuel filter as well. Timing chain is hard to change on these cars, because the engine needs to come out of the car. Unles you hear rattling noises, you should be OK. Also, I would change oil every 8-10 thousand km. Enjoy the car.
@@DIYProjectX thank you so much for this answer
@@DIYProjectX another question my friend should i change all fluids every 10 thousand km or some I can change later on?
@@roskice Engine oil every 10K, gearbox fluid every 60K, diffs every 30K, fuel and air filter every other oil change.
@@DIYProjectX thank you :)
Super
Thanks
make some more videos about this a6 c6 3.0 tdi :) just bought one my self and as most people i dont have the money to drive to audi for every minor thing.
I know exactly what you mean... I try to do as much work on my car as possible. Sadly, I don´t have the Audi anymore. It´s BMW 530i for me now. There will be some more videos on that.
@@DIYProjectX is it expensive to maintence?
@@tonyvideochannel6871 The regular maintenance is not expensive. But there are some parts which can cause exoensive problems. However, this applies for all modern cars.
@@DIYProjectX What is combined fuel consumption for 3.0 tdi quattro steptronic?

Glad you liked it. I guess...
How many Bhp? same engine like in A4 (B7 2005)? Thanks
Hey there! 165 kW / 220 HP. Not sure about the A4.
OK, thanks. I see 150kw in A4. I think the build of engine is almost the same :)
Ok video. Never use brake cleaner to clean cover. Best to use a brush to scrape loose dirt. Hose off. Then spray with wd40. It will attract road dirt but it won't dry out cover and cause cracking/ breaking down.
Thanks for the tip.
@@DIYProjectX I know it's an old video... what kind of ramps are those?
@@ssweeney9691 Just some no-name basic ramps of the internet. But they are certified to take up to two tones each. I still use them no problem.
@@DIYProjectX love that diesel! I have a 06 A6 Quattro wagon. Wish it was a diesel lol
@@ssweeney9691 I had to sell mine, because we had a kid and the limo / sedan is hopelesly inpractical for that. I wish I could find a nice wagon with this engine. I'm stuck with a Mondeo for now.
Car is not straight has a little angle to the ground I would personally use all 4 orange frames for the wheels.
Also I could clean engine using moly liquid for 15min before changing oil👍
Agreed. I use the engine flush from LM every other oil change.
Why didn't fill up filter up with oil?it's wery important, you are damaging your engine, there is no oil in first 5 seconds by first start up!
Someone already told me, I'll do that next time. My bad... :( Thank you.
Good Job.
13:17 and upwards = No sex tonight!
Exactly 😀
La più bella scena è dove inciampa😅😂😂
Thanks, man.
please bro tell me somethink because i want to buy one off this car 3.0tdi but in youtube say so much shit for these cars carbon build and so much thinks please tell me if you servis the car in time and drive normal this car can be daily and strong car and family car can tell me what servis needet for this engine and what they need every 10k km or every 1year or in what time if you want to not broke the car never. and to have in 100% good and how much cost these servis for this engine please Tell me 👍👑
Hi there! First, you need to be patient and careful when buying. The car should have service history and a mechanic should check it for you. If the car is healthy at the first place, it should only need regular oil change. Change oil every 10k, not 30k as they recommend. Change gearbox tiptronic oil every 60k. This is a very common engine so they can fix it almost in every shop. Strong engine when taken care of. Great cruiser and a spaceous car. Huge boot in estate form. Pick a good one and you will be happy.
@@DIYProjectX thanks so much i gona to screenshot your list and when i buy the car to see what to do thanks so much brother
@@dukagjin2850 Glad I could help.
@@DIYProjectX yeah you help me so much thank you . sorry but can tell me how much cost Normal servis just oil change and all filter and other think and gearbox oil change how much cost 🙏
@@dukagjin2850 Well, that depends on your local prices. This car needs more than 8 liters of oil, which is around 75 USD. The oil filter is around 8 USD. The fuel filter is around 45 USD. I´m talking about good quality brands like Bosch, Mann filters, Castrol... The gearbox oil I´ve had done by specialist and it was around 450 USD. Front brake pads are around 55 USD. I recommend spending more money on a well maintained car, and you can avoid some of these costs.
Hezké,ale kolik to vše stálo? U nás v servisu : výměna oleje(5w/30 castrol ,nebo 10W/60) + filtru,diagnostika ,práce a likvidace nebezpečného odpadu stojí 3900,- Jako bonus oproti DIY je to,že domeček olejového filtru je povolen a utažen na předepsaný moment speciálním klíčem a ne sikovkama, dále nová zátka olejové vany s těsněním ,utažená taky na moment. Ne tak,jak je na videu. A na závěr bychom přidali radu ohledně toho rachtání. To způsobuje napínák řetězu na jedné straně válců . Stane se to tak,že někdy vačkový hřídel zůstane v takové poloze,že na napínák tlačí řetěz až z něj vytlačí olej. Rachtání ustane až po nastartování a opětovném natlačení napínáku olejem. Oprava se řeší výměnou napínáku za novější typ.
3900 u auta s osmi litry oleje a včetně práce? Tak to tedy klobouk dolů. Jinak momentový klíč už jsem si pořídil a nedělám to kvůli ušetřeným penězům, ale protože mě to baví.
@@DIYProjectX Ano,olej máme za cca 300kč/litr a divil byste se kolika lidem se to zdá ještě drahé :-) Není to náš primární způsob výdělku,tím je oprava motorů. Pokud servis dělá jen běžnou údržbu,oleje,filtry a atd, tak to mají trochu napálené. Je hezké ,že Vás to baví (víc jak většinu lidí co se tím živí) Přeji mnoho úspěchů.
@@antoninlobl368 Děkuji, i Vám.
Serrer le bouchon du filtre a huile a 35 Nm avec une pince multiprise vraiment professionnel faudra expliquer coment vous faites !!! . Moi je penser qu'il fait une douillede 32mm avec une clé dynamometrique ?
Well, and what if you do NOT have the proper tools?? Not all people own a torque wrench or large sockets. You realise that, don't you?
I dont' know where you live but there is absolutely no sound around your house ! O_o
Yes, it is rather quiet :) Not anymore though. I've got two little kids now.
Them bricks will do nothing 😂🤣😂 good video but good them bricks had me on edge
:) I know. But if you have nothing else, I take anything to feel safer.
@@DIYProjectX I actually think they'd make the car come down worse as it would slam down when the bricks fell over 😱😱
@@andrewriley2690 Or it would give me second or two to get out. Still, better than nothing imo.
:)
Glad you like it.
Kiepsko. Filtr oleju powinieneś zalać najpierw. Silnik chodził na sucho i to było słychać
Agreed.
Chain tensioner out!!
It has only done it (the noise) once, right after the oil change. Otherwise, it´s OK.
I have an a6 2.0tdi c6 here in morroco like yours i love it take care of ur car
1:05 better safe? Hahaha if the car rolls down or the ramp breaks, this doesn't help you at all
How could you possibly know?
Castrol = Shit, for this engine ONLY! Valvoline 5w30 507.00
It's definitely no s**t. But I may try something else next time. Thanks.
KedlubenX Try Motul 5w30 specific 504 00-507 00 or Mobil1 5w30 ESP , very good oils...Good Luck...
Thanks a lot. I´ll give one of them a try next time.
Valvoline aint so great either.
Najgorsze chłam leje do takiego auta.
Great oil IMHO. Only good experiences in many years of use... Thanks for comment.
Edge nie jest zły to nie magnatec
