2013 Audi B8 RS5 Oil and Coolant Change

After 10 years there are a preventative maintenance jobs that need to be taken care of (coolant for one!) but there is also those 10 year old tires that have to be replaced. The video goes through details of how to change the coolant (most of it anyway!), an oil change as it has been 18 months and the experience working with a mobile tire service. 

For the performance this car has to be one of the easiest I have worked on. OK so I have not had to do anything too complicated but so far I am enjoying it. I have also been amazed at how relatively inexpensive many of the parts/fluids are for the car. Must have something to do with sharing a parent company with VW!

Diagnosing a Coolant Leak with a Stant Coolant Pressure Tester

Two videos in a week! It must be a record for the channel. I decided to pop down to the workshop to prep for the weekend and I couldn’t stop myself from working not the cars and taking a quick video! 

This video will give you an insight of what will come next with the Audi RS5 but also go through hunting down a coolant leak in the LS Swapped RX-8. If you are ever worried about your cooling system it is worth investing in the right tools and I will give you a quick insight on how to use them!
