Got myself liqui moly high tech 5w-30 and a k&n filter for my 2018 S5 when I did my oil change it was like a blessing 0 metal shavings not even a slight sparkle tough I heard the rating for the oil on this car is 507-508vw I did 504-507vw because that was the closest liqui moly had I should be good on that right?
FULL INFO on my journey with this car…
Im 17 bout this car for 7,000 dollars spent another 2000 to get it running, it is a salvage title vehicle, 2018 b9 S5 sportback premium plus but loaded with everything adaptive cruise control, valved exhausts, carbon interior, the works, i got a steal on this vehicle almost to good to be true and i did have a lot of issues along the way, water pump, pcv, pcv hoses, ect the normal audi issues, the car has 66,000 miles now it needs a transmission service, but thats pretty much it, some body damage only missing a rear diffuser and could use a front bumper, it’s the nicest car I have ever owned, but I had some people offer me 13,000 for it some 14,000 but I never follow through with them, should I sell it or should I keep it?
2018 B9 S5
Engine was made 8/17
Keep hearing about rocker arm failure
And i am in the year that the revisions had not been made yet
I have a really weird vibration that doesnt have to do with my idle speed idle stays steady vibration feels like a cammed corvett lol
Thinking its just motor mounts because i have no misfires and my engine sounds normal for a EA839 but curious if anyone that did have rocker arm failure had this same issue steady idle bad vibration, vibration worsens under load.
Okay here’s a list
Idle is fine but a lot of vibration
Goes away when driving
Is worse in drive and reverse
Better in park but still there
No check engine light but there are misfires in every cylinder
Did a smoke test it passed
Did a compression and leak down it passed
Did spark plugs and coil packs it’s passed
The rough idle goes away when I turn my steering wheel
Car has one stored code p2227 (biometric pressure sensor)
Taken it to a shop they had no idea
I need help
2018 Audi s5 62,000 miles
Can I run a flex fuel kit in my car without a tune e85 over here is 1.80$ a gallon and premium is around 6$ so I know I’ll save money even if my mpg is worse but I won’t if I have to tune the car can anyone help me out on this (just want to get a flex fuel kit for a 2018 Audi S5 withought having to tune the car)
So seem less coop right trying to take my vanilla character to the mod and um it didn’t work and now I went to the vanilla game and I clicked the account it restarted everything… the account was level 500 something a 5+ year old account I think I messed up the files or something anyone that can help me DM me or anything I’m sure if there is a way it’s a long process
So I did spark plugs recently and it fixed a lot of the vibration my car was having but on the drivers side bank of the engine there was oil on all 3 spark plugs but on the combustion side of the spark plug (the part that actually is in the cylinder) and the vibration came back a day after idk if it’s my valve cover cause that would cause it to be on the outside of the cylinder not the inside I’m very confused honestly mechanic said valve cover I’m just not sure sorry I do not have pictures… this is a b9 2018 Audi s5 65,000 miles
I did the water pump and thermostat 3 weeks ago and all of a sudden today this happened and I got a coolant temp high warning it goes down as soon as I let go of the throttle and as soon as I push the throttle it shoots back up and god forbid I floor it
This is a 2018 Audi S5
I do have a valve cover leak don’t think that’s related anyone ever had this issue?
I don’t know if you guys can hear it, but my idle is like bumping at a very specific rhythm, but on the gauge cluster, it shows that it’s steady and even on a scanner, it shows that it’s steady, but it still sounds like a like thumping in the car like the vibration is Thampi and it only goes away when I put it in individual which raises the RPM any ideas of what this could be?
Been trying for the past two hours, but it seems like I can’t get that third clip to unlatch on the bottom even though I’ve used two screwdrivers on both sides to try and get it off. Any suggestions? It’s an Audi S5 2018.
Anyone have a cats optimized mod I can buy I got 3k caps🥹

This is my old baby I miss her sold her a bit ago curious if I should do this to another one?
I got the smell of weed and cigarettes in my Audi s5,
I have tried scent bombs (3 of them)
Replaced the cabin air filter
Used baking soda on the carpets and it’s better but it still lingers
Any recommendations on how to truly get it out I have asked multiple detailers and they all say they aren’t sure
I got a 2018 Audi S5 and I’m wondering how do I use the launch control? Does it even have launch control? I’ve tried it before and it seems like the car just wants to do a burnout and starts moving forward. I turn off traction control all the way put it in sports mode put it on individual and it just seems to want to do a burnout.
A refrigerant line in my car came loose while I was working on it and let all the refrigerant out and I attempted to fill it with refrigerant today and it only took 8 ounces and the compressor now will not turn on or at least the clutch will not engage and inside the car physically does not let me turn the AC on. I tried to fill more than 8 ounces and it just would not accept it. I tried to manually turn it on with my scanner and it said that the engine needed to cool off. Anyone had this issue and know what it could be?
I’m realizing because I’m looking for a new diffuser that I don’t think this is a b9 rear bumper it looks like a b9.5 would any of you happen to know where I can get a used one don’t want to spend 500 bucks on a new one I live in riverside also a new rear bumper would be nice but not 100% needed
I don’t know how euro shops in Audis be charging over $2000 for this job. It really wasn’t that bad. I did my water pump my thermostat and my coolant control valve and it fixed all my issues.
I’m 16 so you grown men should be able to do this job and save your wallets
Getting a new water pump for the S5 b9 engine manufacture date is 2018 August 27th do I need to worry about rocker arm failure, and I do have the coolant low warning (it’s full) does this mean it’s already in my vacuum lines what do I need to replace besides the pump and thermostat?
I believe my water pump just failed on me as I was driving. The car had a coolant warning. I stopped it realize my coolant was a little low filled it. Let the car idle with the coolant in it and within three minutes car told me to shut off the engine immediately that coolant temperatures were too high, and I could hear my coolant boiling from outside of the engine bay open my coolant cap and all of it went out of the overflow
