have recently put down a post ( 14/06/2010 00:10 ) that gives my engine funny running sounds after a kickdown....now yes.....at Do. last week ...he did not do any more on the highway.......following event:
I drove with a gentle 150 as suddenly at approx. 3000 tours the engine went out alone, trying to start during the ride but nixxxx.
I was able to drive another parking space.....so, when igniting from...... hood on....smoothed after burnt oil and under the vehicle cooling fluid loss....I couldn't make a rhyme.....shortly tried to start.....but the causer had had it very hard to turn..as if the engine was tight. ??!
Today the engine has been taken out from below ( Z-heads cannot be removed from above heavily installed engine space ) ....according to 1. Diagnosis piston eaters on 4 cylinders....Ventiles should be ok, will learn more tomorrow.
Where the water came from... I don't know! .....some underpressure hoses have melted at the engine block due to the high teperature development ....more tomorrow I think.
My week has run, especially if you stand 600km from the residence with the box (now Düsseldorf)
Workshop is diligent and competent (of course NO VAG )
My questions : Can someone motor parts for an A8 4e 4.2er 2004 bj. get it? Whether used or new...if second at a more humane price like the friendly one? Would be willing to honor this, if it clearly reflects......the shopping list will unfortunately be very long.
2. Can anyone tell me how the damage image can now express itself independently of the workshop statement ? wants to keep my costs within limits and none by me rich.... or make me become poor by it. ?!
3. Where the engine is out now, and my decision is certain that the gas system will now only be installed to deco, would an increase in power on the engine be interesting.....does any of you do this, or do you know one? ...and what means are available ....? What's simple is like Turbo or Turbo. Compressor, etc.
Now I drive a replacement Audi......VW
Would be grateful for useful infos...
Greetings Marty
