This is the 3.0L Supercharged V6 found in the Audi A6, A7 and Q7. This is a core engine from a local dealership that unfortunately I did not get a story with. This engine is clearly an engine that was sold at a salvage yard as it has stock numbers on the supercharger and heat tabs pasted all over. That means, it was either sold, installed and deemed bad, or sold, installed, driven on and failed. The reason why? Well that's what the video is for. The real question is, what can you do to prevent this? Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own and run Importapart, a full service auto dismantler. Part of our business includes buying blown up, core and damaged engines to dismantle for parts. We do not rebuild engines, merely supply parts to those who do. I really hope you enjoyed this video, as always I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
