Audi RS4 B7 shock absorbers refurbishment and engine mountings replacement. Audi/VAG stopped the manufacturing of the rear shocks without any OEM replacement. Owners are now faced with the option modifying their RS4s’ to non-standard coil overs and loosing the OEM specs that decrease the collect ability and value. We opted for the refurbishment, keeping the RS4 within OEM spec. This is a long & timely exercise and budget wise still a good stretch less than the now unavailable OEM shocks

Audi A4 1.8 TFSI Injectors having a day at the Spa. These injectors were at the receiving end of dirty fuel and the cleaning of it formed part of cleaning the complete fuel delivery system. The petrol had to be drained and filtered using double layered coffee filters. The fuel tank had to be manually cleaned and vacuumed. On this specific model, the fuel filter was a separate part from the LPFP and we ordered a new one from Audi. Precautionary systems checks included measuring the coils resistance, inspecting the spark plugs and performing a compression test. The buzz word with injectors cleaning is “ultrasonic cleaning”, that is true, but absolutely useless if the injectors are only externally cleaned and expected that it will clean the internals. The Dealerships are specifically guilty of this. A second stage ultrasonic cleaning should take place where the injectors are pulsed while in the ultrasonic bath. Then most importantly flushing and reverse flushing, with alternating vacuum and positive pressure, should take place during this phase. We provide evidence during our test result showing the carbon gunk we removed from within the injectors. In this case new seals and O-rings were fitted to the 4 GDI injectors, where the O-rings on the 4PFI Injectors were still in good condition

Porsche Cayenne V6 Diesel 92A with 108980 Km, Job Code Name: Cinderella. The Porsche suffered from a severe coolant leak, we took advantage to perform a carbon clean during the same job . The carbon on the intake ports and back of the intake valves was quite hard and crystallised. This was removed using walnut blasting/vacuum process. All new seals and gaskets including the oil filter housing and water pump. We are quite pleased with the outcome to say the least!

Audi Kryptonite and a Urine Test. The Q7 was booked in with a severe coolant leak and the owner topped-up each day with yellow-green coolant not suited for VAG engines. The result was that the plastic parts that came in contact with this yellow-green coolant became very brittle and leaks sprung from every possible weak point. VAG engines can only use G12+ coolant that is orange-pinkish in colour. If you are at a petrol station and you need to top up with coolant, please specify G12+, else only add water. Different types of coolant do not mix and it is designed for different operating temperatures. So if you are driving a Porsche, Audi or VW; stay away from the green Kryptonite! It took forever to flush the coolant with multiple flushes to get to an acceptable water value after which we could then add G12+

A real dirty set of injectors was ultrasonic cleaned and flushed. The test results shows it performed well and the carbon gunk removed from within the injectors is astonishing
