This is a teardown for the books! Some of you have seen this engine floating around in the background of previous teardown videos. I've been avoiding this one for a month or two, and have burned through all of my "easy" engines. Decided to rip the scab off, and get to this 5.2L BXA Audi V10 core that came in. I knew nothing about it. It was cheap, not a high risk engine. This was filmed over 3 different occasions, and required a lot of on the fly research to get it apart remotely correctly. I'm hardly an Audi or VW guy, and this is the first engine of this type I've ever torn down.
The 5.2L BXA came in the Audi C6 S6 starting in 2007. They are rated 435hp and 398lbft of torque. Personally, they seem incredibly complex for the power they make however they do sound pretty amazing. This particular engine was pretty pooched. Whoever was behind the wheel when this happen tried to power through whatever the situation was, and it wasn't the right call and it likely cost them their car as it was junked after this.

I really hope you enjoyed this teardown, it was a lot of fun to learn how it came apart both the right way and the wrong way.
As always, I appreciate all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism. Catch you all on the next one!
