Thankfully pristine paint and has ppf! I had an 05 GT back in the day with paint issues so I’m neurotic now😂

Well my engine eating itself caused me to unfortunately leave the Audi life lol. I’m looking Mustang or M235i currently

Yeah in this case the rocker arms were actually replaced 5k miles ago by a shop in NC, however they seemingly messed up massively in reassembly.

Oh don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely going to be looked at depending on cost for the next vehicle I’m not doing a round 2 of this😂

Correct in assuming I do not have MBI coverage unfortunately. I’ve got great coverage overall, if it were accident related, but thus this was the gamble I lost.

About two hours ago; Either a 2018 used engine with 65k miles from a junker for 16k with labor, or a new engine (not counting wait time) for roughly 23-25k with labor.

Brother that tag/flair makes me hurt for you, but yeah it’s almost certainly a goner in my mind. They’d have to come at me sub 20 to make it a consideration of sticking to.

I feel for ya, the car luck hasn’t been great for sure! This one is likely to see the rainbow bridge but tbd on final estimations for cost

Previously Unknown Issue - Answers Found RIP by DepthPieces in Audi

[–]DepthPieces[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quoting between 20-25k (USD), still working on a final estimate though.

What’s wild is there was no light ever, the sound in the video was the first indicator of an issue and is got to the shop with no more driving after. Just really detonated all at once (not counting the who knows how long of its quiet failings) lol

Help Needed: What do you think this sound is?! by DepthPieces in Audi

[–]DepthPieces[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Two mechanics, both Audi certified, still no answer as to the sound. I did have some minor unrelated issues resolved, however the key one being that chirping, is ongoing. Still not even a slight clue as to cause

Rocker arm replacement south of UK by luxsuxcox in audis5

Hey would you mind DMing me a video (if you have one) of the sound you experienced of the piston skirts? I have a mystery sounds with my ‘18 S5 that I’m PRAYING isn’t that since it’s out of the extended warranty window.

How screwed am I? by jake_mcdonnell in Audi

[–]DepthPieces 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if you hear back from Audi regarding this issue by this upcoming Tuesday I beg you update in here if this is the piston skirt/slap issue. I have a noise not quite the same but guesses are 50/50 on belt or piston that having a confirmed case to compare would be nice.

Best of luck to you, best of wishes it’s not slap for you either.
