Gary great videos and a huge help as I'm trying to save costs. Can I ask in relation to the brakes did you need a device to unwind electric brake?

Yes - I use an Autel Autolink OBD2 scanner (about €120 on Amazon) , it’s paid for itself numerous times at this point and I highly recommend.

I'm watching this after a failed oil change, put the car up on axle stands but couldn't get the undertray off. I didn't have the 10mm spline bit and half of the existing bolts are rounded :(

Hey Gary, quick question on this. Is your house a single zone or 2 zone? I have the very same setup (Kerosene boiler with the same timer) except I have a 2 zone system (a separate thermostat for upstairs and downstairs). Would this work for a 2 zone setup?

Hi Gary, I want to do exactly as you did here but in my original timer/switch there is a live in and a live out wire. Then there is a neutral in and neutral out. Where does the neutral out go in the nest. Can’t see it in the diagram?

How has been the reliability on this model? What's the mileage on it. Thanks

There’s approx 100k (miles) on the clock. I find Audi’s incredibly reliable as long as they are regularly maintained. Next preventative maintenance to be carried out will be a timing belt (I’ll be doing it before the interval - but will have piece of mind then). A soft spot on these cars is the clutch slave cylinder (which is located inside the gearbox bell housing). Mine went suddenly after 6 months of ownership ( clutch just dropped to the floor and wouldn’t come back up). The clutch was contaminated with hydraulic fluid as a result and needed replacement (you should also do the DM flywheel at the same time as the clutch!) All in - a repair bill of 2.5k 😬

Good comprehensive video... Few pointers are that you could have given more details when changing the air filter and camera angle was little off. What's the tighten limit for sump screw. As well any chance for a video how to properly jack up the Audi on stands. I did it wrongly and it went through the side of the car costed me 1400 to fix 🙈...

Hey Gary, just watched your A6 disc's & pads vid.. good stuff! got warped discs on my A7 and brakes are the same, highly suspect that kwikfit overtorqued my wheel nuts! as the discs warped just after a full set of tyres all round!!!! thankfully pads are needing changed anyway... so just the extra expense of the discs! good vids m8 and you've got a new subscriber :)

Great video. I'm moving into a new house and just bought one. I have oil heating and I'm just wondering, do I just remove the thermostat on the boiler and wire in the heatlink? Why did you not put yours near your boiler?
@gazgaz0
3 жыл бұрын
Essentially my old thermostat controller, gave power to the boiler/pump when on, that’s why I swapped it for the Heatlink - to keep that functionality. If I put the Heatlink directly on the boiler I wouldn’t have a constant power supply.

Yep, easy job. 3 wires the same principal as I used to replace the thermostat. The Heatlink essentially is just a WiFi enabled switch to allow you to switch boiler on and off. There’s a wiring diagram for a 230v combo boiler in the manual too.

For the screen wash it would just be a basic mesh, just to catch any large particles. They can break off overtime and end up in the washer bottle. It happened me once or twice and I just left it to be honest.... never caused any issues

There is no control of the heat level with this setup. It essentially an on/off switch for the boiler with some nice additional features sure as remote access (wi-fi), calendar/schedules etc., switch off once desired main room temperature is achieved.
