The ‘new’ headlight is wrong, I know, but it was the only replacement I could get at the time. Headlight repair kids from Audi were on backorder too 👍🏻

48 pounds for that job? Thats insane, i hope you left a nice tip, those companies and people are priceless.

i think what makes this channel so good is being able to relate to it. He doesn't have all the tools, knowledge, funds as some other people but shows what can be done if you want to. excellent.

Keep up the content dude, you're not as flashy as Mat Armstrong but thats your charm.

That pipe the company made that you showed at 17:37 is fantastic and a true testament to their skills.

For the fiberglass filler you can get aluminium mesh to put behnd the hole and apply fiberglass filler on top as it helps strengthen the repair, Nice work ✌️

You are one of my favourite new UKpostsrs; safe to say I'm a bit addicted by your style. I really connect with your content haha Keep up the good work mate!

Wow nice to see that you came back to work on your RS6. 3 month went quite fast, keep doing what you doing!

Keep up the hard work and persistence. I'm always happy to see you repairing these vehicles and learning so much along the way. You're still more of a mechanic than many other people and you are not afraid to tackle the difficult bits. Love the content!

Your perseverance is second to none because I felt like I was feeling your joy and pain at each turn, yet you didn't give it the 🖕🏻, you just got on with it 😂 love the use of a local engineering company for the pipe, just goes to show they're the real winners 👍🏻

Ahhhh Nino, good to see you back Some good work goung on there You must have the worlds most understanding wife EVER 😂😂😂😂

You need to use knifing stopper (cellulose putty ) after you've use fillers which is very easy to use , takes no hardener and will save lots of rubbing etc and get you a far better finish

‘Layer Cake’ vibes strong with this one. I still yearn for one of these. Hope your next steps go smoother for your sake. Best of luck!

Glad to see you back man - keep them coming. Will be catching up on your back catalogue asap

You had your lesson with pipe, you used a local machine shop. Should have used a local machine shop to repair the brake caliper bleeding screw threads as well.

keep going. i enjoy your builds

You've done a great work with this complicated car! You're becoming better and better every day! 🎉🎉🎉

Mate you are great doing this outdoors without a garage, lift or a pit - this is quite inspiring to be honest. Top lad! It just proves that you can really do what you want, no matter of the circumstances. Phenomenal work

Amazing car well jelly of her.....With the Abs...you need to code it with vcds, get engine and gearbox service done asap. Gearboxes on RS'es are prone to die. All together...well done 👍👍👍

Fabulous work, you are not only restoring this beautiful car you are also learning AND teaching at the same time. So well done on the work you do and your patience is amazing, sure sounds a real treat and must be a wonderful car to drive, the sound alone is worth what you have spent! Thanks for this and look forward to the next project.

You know what I don’t normally comment on anything but after watching a few of you’re videos seriously it’s so nice to actually see someone doing this stuff who just seems like a regular joe using UKposts and looking at the handbooks and stuff like that it keeps it real and shows that with some hard work and some effort anyone can do this keep up the good work loving the videos mate

Best you tube channel I’ve found for a very long time! Nino.. honestly why haven’t you done this sooner??? You’re making awesome content. I love the fact you use local businesses too. Keep it up mate

How have I only just found this channel?! Awesome 👌

Loving this rebuild, my favourite Audi RS. A well presented and real build

You are a great presenter of this stuff, you always make me smile and I'm really wishing you success with your projects.

Really nice content, thank you.. enjoyed it a lot!

Oh boy, love seeing new videos from NEV :D

Yes, can’t wait for this, really enjoy your videos and personality.🎱

We all felt your pain. Great that you got it running and driving. You're a patient man.

I love how honest you make it look about working on cars in your driveway. It’s hard! Now we know why it took a while for this video but massive kudos to you for figuring out all the faults. My only qualm is that you say “off of” when the correct word is be “from”. 😂 Looking forward to part 3

Very much appreciating the realness of this content. Showing all your mistakes and frustrations. You have a new Subscriber! 👍

Well done fella - done fantastic job so far on it.. looking forward to see it completely finished one again nice work keep it up

Keep up the good work! I had tons of fun helping my friend fix his car after a crash, we made many mistakes, took too long but we learned so much and finally fixed it. If I live in the UK I'd ask to come around every weekend 😅

I'm amazed by how your content is not boring. I usually get bored by these restoration videos, but yours is trully interesting.

Nice choice of build great stuff, looking forward to this series 😁👍🏽

You sir are an absolute legend. Keep the videos coming 👏

Great work, great the car is driveble , amazing! congrats and cannot wait until the car will be fully restored.

Love the content. Binge watched a load and I say this channel will start growing rapidly

I’ve been waiting so long for this video. What a beast of a car. I love watching your work. You don’t pretend to be anything else and just have a go and what results you are getting. Great work mate. Look forward to the next one

Love the video's mate! Keep it up! 🎉

you got yourself a new sub man! Love your channel!

Sounds a right beast!

Brill sounds awesome looks fab well done, I found as I got older the limiting factor was lack of a lift - without one it just makes pretty much anything a right pain. Good luck, let’s hope the timing chains and tensioners hold up.

25:50 you need vcds, vas or ODIS scanner not necessarily original

Well done, great to see one of these going back on the road and being saved form being parted out. I had a mint one of these for four years and at the time there were only about 300-400 still on UK roads out of the original 8000 imported. Still miss it and have contemplated acquiring a neglected one to bring back to life, and it's interesting to watch someone else cut a path to doing so. I do almost all the work on my 2011 VW Transporter myself, having taken advantage of Covid to take the time to learn how to do so, including a lot of factory retrofits. I think this could be within my reach now. Keep up the good work.

The vids are amazing love your work man

Get some 2k UV resistant clear acrylic lacquer for the refinished headlamp… will make the finish stay nice for a lot longer… just wet sanding and polishing they tend to craze and yellow in about 12 months.

Nice work , absolute beast of a car

Brilliant video, love these old beasts!

Awesome job fella! Loving the content 👌

Man, that is a beautiful automobile! You are a great mechanic/auto repairman. Pretty darn resourceful on getting parts too. Congrats.

Great to see you back and well done on the turnaround! Looking good, sounding sweet! I'm sure we are brothers from another mother as your pain with mechanicals match mine but we still go for it 😂 Looking forward to the next one man!

Nice work on bumper and oil pipes, saved yourself a small fortune there as well as weeks waiting for parts. Enjoying videos be nice to see you doing more of the work in detail just to see how its done

New subscriber here Nino, loving your videos and humble down to earth honesty, keep up the good work

Great videos, keep up the good work 👍🏽

You achieved the impossible so far. Doing stuff like this at home is a nightmare. I've subscribed to see more progress on this and future projects. Thanks for the upload. 👍

Really enjoyed the video looking forward to the next one

Love your content 👏👏

Just found your channel and now catching up with your videos. I think it's great that you're giving these repairs a go, fantastic results also. You have the patience of a Saint as must your wife!!

I do look forward to your videos. Good job. Nice car

Good video mate well done mate not easy doing this outside work with no garage or car lift praise you good work

i look forward to your videos. the RS6 is a beast!

I think you have to bleed the abs pump with vcds to get all of the air out?

New here looking forward to binge watching your channel ..I really enjoyed watching this ..subscribed straight away

G,day what a cool looking car sounds great top job love this channel

I've followed you from your first video. Another frustrating car to work on but you're turning it around in your own way, great video Nino.

Just watch this good luck with the redt of the rebuild mate 👍🏻

Just found your channel and now subscribed. Am enjoying and emphasising with the content as been there and done that many times 😢😂

14:12 If it WERE that easy, EVERYONE would have a twin-turbo V8 Audi! Really awesome seeing you push through the headache parts that ALWAYS tend to pop up on this sort of endeavor! Great work!!

Love this channel, Im currently stuck in a hospital bed after an op and was bored senseless and found your videos on the Audi, hours later I've watched you on the Audi, rover, fiat, newer Audi, a Peugeot and had a laugh at you and your good lady cleaning it, been watching the videos back to back for hours now, great videos, love the fact you are learning as you go along, one thing I will say is your temper and self control is amazing, hit a problem you laugh at it and deal with it where I would be doing a Basil Faulty and battering hell out the car.....working my way through them all, currently on the Jag video, bargain, love those cars!!!

Nice video! I have a 2002 audi rs6 so it fun to see when you work on your😎 regards from Sweden.

If u get this back on the road thats bloody good work Good luck

As a big fan of old Audis thumbs up , I especially like that you do it outside and try to fix everything you can , very sympathetic 👍 greetings from Slovakia

Did the ABS module need to go into "service mode" to complete the bleed?

Loving the vids

I swear I mean this in the nicest way man, but I laughed so many times during this. Not laughing at you, more like commiserating. Been there, done that. Well done sir! Love the work and the channel

new sub here mate your off your nut doing a car like this but i love it love your perseverance even when sh*t hits the fan theres got to be a big audi breakers in uk you could use for the hard to get parts

I have been following your RS6 story with great interest. I am too trying to recommission my 2004 RS6 after it has sadly languished on my drive for several years, due to life and long term illness keeping me and the car inactive. Keep up the good work and enjoy the car! Cheers Rachael

24:25 the click you hear is the magnetic switch that physically enables you to change positions of the lever when the brake pedal is pressed. It’s perfectly normal aside from being a bit loud on the video. You can remove the silver plate of the lever and look down inside, you should be able to see it, maybe it is a bit shifted because of the impact of the accident. You can even move it manually with a long and slim tool in case of electrical problems that way.

I had forgotten about this build. Glad to see the upload. You made a lot of progress in this video. Good job. Edit: ffs clear coat the headlights though. You can see them yellowing again throughout the video.

Hey Nino, best video yet mate!! I really think you’re finding your groove. Did an ABS module on an A6 cabrio many moons ago & was thinking ‘I hope he’s going to code it’ as I was watching 😘 Thought that caliper might be repairable at a machine shop. That said, it ain’t a job for bodgery so reckon you did the right thing. Turning out grand!!

I’ve been waiting for this video to come! Good job as always. How did you attach back the steering rack? It was detached as for report.

You need to spray clearcoat on the headlight lens that you've polished. If you do, the headlight will stay clear for 6-9 months. If you don't it will stay clear for 3 months or so. If you want lenses that stay clear for years, you have to find an aftermarket lend maker and buy replacement lenses.

Been waiting for this update what great video im not 100% sure but i believe the abs coding will be able to do it with audi own code reader

One of my favourite channels and projects hope to have the money to start a project of my own soon

good stuff nino

Hiya mate, fellow hobbiest here enjoyed the video! Thought I'd leave a commen about your front grill... it looks like yours has been spray painted black over the original chrome (poorly) you can see where the stone chips are revealing the original audi chrome beneath it, If you give that grill a little rub down with some Isopropyl and a microfiber that thin layer of black spray paint will more then likely come right off.. you may just have a half decent grill I know this because I'm most the way through an S3 8L rebuild which is of similar generation in terms of age, i had bought a grill that was spray painted black like that, i literally hit it with some isopropyl and it was like brand new after that, and it didn't eat the chrome either, it just took off the black paint and grey primer layer in one wipe. All the best with the proj! maybe give it a bash :)

I have loved watching your channel grow! Reminds me of the average bloke rolling around in the dirt to fix a car just to save a few quid 😂😂 Keep it up buddy!

Looks amazingly clean for the money top buy

Good job! Dont forget to put a coat of clear on it! It will fade again rather quicky, because the UV protection layer is now missing.
