I finally rebuilt the wrecked Audi RS6 and its back on the road but in Florida after we had a big hiccup in LA. To completely finish the build off i wanted Audi themselves to check over the car and do the finishing touches before i can go and enjoy it. But there's still some more problems to be solved.
Thanks so much to all the guys a Audi Pembrooke Pines! - www.audipembrokepines.com/?ut...

Pj was such a vibe shout out to him
was just about to say the same top lad
Got it in 1 saves me repeating it
PJ ain’t letting that RS6 pass him by!…. You don’t see many over in the US. But it’s great to see Americans appreciating a good ole Estate! (Aka Wagon) 😂
Give it to him Matt
Pj seems quality guy
The Audi tech needs to start his own KZhead 100% success
100% yes he does! I feel PJ could educate a lot of people the right way.
Yeah definitely

Installing new disc on rusted af hub great audi tech :DDDDd
I did and YT took it down. Started a new one 😅. Pray for me lol
...woops
Could’ve been a lot worse!
Don't worry Freddy! We all know you only left it loose for the Content!!
Could of been worse and glad it caught in time! My dash started having disco lights. Found out the the distribution block on my E87 BMW fried due to the guy changing the battery doing the exact same thing.
usual suspect 😅
Damn that VAR, nobody likes it 😂
Well done Pembroke Pines Audi. Letting Matt film on the premises and interview your tech PJ was awesome. What a great way to engage with the public and free advertising. It goes a long way to promote the Audi brand compared to other competitors. Good job guys! Greetings from the UK.
This 100% - I get it's tricky to endorse something like this, a YT kid so far from your brand, but it's important because in the UK, Audi really isn't appealing to the younger generation. Its intimidating and expensive. They may not be able to afford now, but you're building a brand for that generation eventually.
I actually learned at Audi and Worked at Audi. Even PJ has some sympathy, the break job he did is unacceptable for a Workshop LET alone a official Audi Dealership. The Wheel Hub was full of rust, it has to be properly grinded with a rust remover pad, then some rust converter and lastly the cleaned and sealed area needs to be slightly lubricated with Ceramic paste. The Brake Caliper ALWAYS needs to come off, doing otherwise will likely twist or tilt the fresh brake disc, also the piston needs to be cleaned and afterwards its really important to flush and add new brake fluid. If this work would be done in Germany it would be completely unacceptable and every customer would be able to get a refund and get the job done properly. I have NEVER NEVER seen this bad brake job on any car, not even in the lousiest and cheapest unexperienced garage. But this is a damn certified Audi dealership AND a damn RS6 !!! WTF? If i would do this even once when i was working at a Audi, they would either fire me or sue me for something like this.
The Audi tech was made to be on camera. What a great experience.
Love your videos
Me too!
And rollotech is a car guy. Well ok
lol @zollotech the car had a few bugs 😊
Hell yeah, I couldn't agree more with this
Pj was thorough, down to earth, and professional. Shout out to him
Hi Matt, I wanted to express my thanks. My father has been suffering from a terminal lung condition since lockdown 4 years ago (Pulmonary Fibrosis).His condition deteriorated slowly and eventually he needed constant oxygen at home. He continued to enjoy life particularly car related stuff. Every week he and I would watch your channel. He loved you, your dad, your team and all your adventures. Your shows became a focus for spending time together watching something we both enjoyed. Sadly last week was the last show we will watch together. I am very grateful for the good times you created for us and the happiness you gave to my dad in his final years. Thank you Matt.
Sorry to hear about your dad. Glad to hear he at least had some happiness in those times. Tim
Pj was a cool dude , all garages need a nice cheerful guy like him working for them it would make the whole car/ garage experience so much more enjoyable. Glad the cars fixed Matt it’s been a pain in the arse lol
What a quality bloke the Audi Tech TJ was - Legend
PJ
I love the Audi Mechanic dude was hilarious
OFFER PJ A JOB, WE NEED HIM ON THE TEAM!!!
Love your work Matt. Just want to give a shout-out to your camera guy. Such a big part of the beauty of your videos. Always so dynamic, yet then still with perfect framing, great way of using pans and walk in zooms, interesting angles, always where the action is, it's all so perfect. Looks easy, but requires such talent, feel and technique. Pure gold, that guy is.
he really brings so much to the channel
Pj’s energy matches with yours and your dads ! Maybe you should visit Florida more often and do some projects there as well 🎉🎉
When you go into any place for a professionals help, having someone like PJ makes the experience so much better. Just a cool dude.
Solid 7 or 8, PJ is the man and well done Audi for been so welcoming to Matt and The Mötley Crew , great content, always makes me smile
PJ knows his stuff. Clearly extremely passionate and experienced in his field, and an absolute natural on camera! 🙌
The VAR moment and Freddie... Flipping priceless 😂😂😂
You gave those guys at Audi the time of their lives Mat. I'm sure their very grateful 🙏😄
It’s nice to see an American dealer be so welcoming and understanding. … Not the service Mat has always been shown in the past. I did notice them all standing around the car! You know it’s something special, when none of the very own Audi tech they have recognises the car! 😂 I bet they were all like “BRUH!!” I’ve never seen that happen! 🤷🏻♂️👌😁
They're, not their
@@AdminAbuse thanks for the correction. English is my 4th language 😅
Great video. PJ at Audi, what a guy. Freddie getting caught on camera with substandard wiring work 😅 so many laughs says it all!
Gotta love PJ, he’s so open about the Audi cars. Love the story with this car. Keep it coming Matt. Always positive, one of the best channels on KZhead.
PJ is a natural in front of the camera and brings lots of positive energy. We need to see more with him
"It's us from the future" cracked me up. Your dad's great laugh😂😂 the whole scene with Freddie was hilarious 😂😂
Really shame that KZhead deleted my channel on a whim without explanation 🤷🏾♂️. Well I’m PJ and will be starting again this week 😂
Dropped you a sub bro keep it going 🫡
Pembrooke Pines Audi of Florida killed it here, just sublime like no other dealer, they surely chose their most charismatic knowledgable tech for this hard assignment, PJ knocked it out the ballpark. The man has amazing attitude and is a natural on camera. What a joy to watch this episode full of amazing chemistry between superb human beings
We need more PJ on the channel.
That whole bit with Freddie and the junction box was hilarious!!! 😂
Man I just love how Matt is bringing amazing people to light! Everybody give PJ some love... and Matt... congrats on the clean bill of health!
Can we get a PJ a spot on this channel, what a top dude!
That guy at Audi, get him on more vidoes
Came to the comments and seen literally everyone caught onto what a vibe PJ was, He's a credit to Audi for sure!
Only found you recently, but proper enjoy your vids man, your personality and pure passion for what you do, plus the lovely bond you have with your old man is beautiful to see
Absolutely love the relationship between you and Freddy!!! God to see when two genuinely good human beings are brought together. This is truly the spirit of 'car guys'.
PJ is a legend, more of him on your channel as a freelance mechanic?
We need him for sure!!
Freddie is such a cool guy! Love his vibe and how is always willing to help
Been loving the builds lately Mat keep it up🔥💯👇
Absolutely my favorite build, Matt and company. And to have you finish the series by having the dealer take a look at your work was a great way to put the final touch on your project. Bravo and thanks so much for all your KZhead content that brings me hours of pleasure. Would love to see more of PJ on any future Audi projects, he was great!
Amazing. What a natural PJ was on camera.
Fantastic Audi Mechanic PJ love his personality and very dedicated to his job.
Out most of the automotive channels on KZhead. I admire matt Armstrong the most..you have you have worked hard to get every car back on the road. Great channel 👏
Amazing lesson in this (and the previous) video. Sometimes it's the simplest things that mess up. Like a simple connection in both these video's.. My GSXR600 kept stalling and suddenly didn't start at all anymore. Turned out it had no fuel. And it had no fuel without me noticing, because of the simple fact the LED in the dash for the fuel light was broken. I took half the motorcycle apart and tested for example the fuel sensor just to find that out. Needless to say I left it like that and just fuelled up every so many miles. That being said, as an electrical engineer, I can say that if you lose voltage somewhere it will mostly be a bad connection / connection with high resistance somewhere (U=I*R, so if I stays the same and U drops, there has to be a high R somewhere). Because almost everything is fused in a car, if it would be a short circuit strong enough to cause a voltage drop (as in the battery would not be able to maintain voltage), the fuse would most probably break AND you would not see 12V on the battery and 9V somewhere else. If it is localized like that it should be a high resistance connection. Even if you can not find a nut that is loose. Try removing some connections and clean them best you can and put them back. This is what happens by itself most often when you take it apart and put it back and it works suddenly. The contacts clean themselves because of the friction from working on it. (This is also why you should always be just as thorough on GND connections as you are on the +).
PJ is a legend and would be insanely watchable on his own channel. Makes me love my ICE car even more when I watch these types of videos online.
What a great guy the Audi worker is. Hope you let him have a blast in it
Fellas, what an insane rebuild. I was glued the whole time! Tony came in HUGE finding that hose though, I truly felt that was a tipping point. Awesome stuff guys! I’m working through the rest of the playlists now. Also loved the Aston Martin and the GT3 rebuild.
Tony is so joyful everything he touches or does becomes intersting & fun to watch...He literally radiates happines and it would be a joy for anyone to have him around, No matter the situation, good or bad! Matt is very lucky to have such a beautiful dad! Great job Guys & cheers from Montreal, Camada
I love the channel.but you know what I love more? Your dad!! What a proper brilliant lovely bloke
hes so fuckin sound isnt he
Matt, you came out of that one with the loose ground/positive connector! I love Freddie’s sense of humor after the proof of him leaving the cable loose, he’s such a great guy and not to forget your dad, what a pat on the back! I truly enjoy watching you guys!
So positive! Thanks God I found your channel! How you guys handle a problems it's very motivating. This life is a game, I need to learn from you how to play it and enjoy it!
Out most of the automotive channels on KZhead. I admire matt Armstrong the most..you have you have worked hard to get every car back on the road. Great channel
PJ was a legend! shoutout to that guy so passionate about his work
Bring PJ back to the UK. Such a cool dude and so much greater than UK techs. ❤
Bring hum back to the UK get married have kids and live a happy life in London 😂
Super cool, PJ rocks, really nice to see Audi supporting the project with such nice and professional person.
i've come to this channel when this audi series began and let me tell you it was one hell of a ride... Awesome job Mat, love your story telling skills. What an outcome!
Absolutely hilarious. Does Pj have a KZhead Channel?
This has been such a rollercoaster of a build
Mate, you're a true example of what humans are capable of when they don't give up!!! Incredible spirit, incredible series on the RS6 and incredible joruney altogether.. I'm so glad you didn't throw in the towel - that would have been what 99% of people would do. Keep it up!! And PJ, you're a legend dude!
Am definitely impressive by PJ what helpful gentleman he's. Love you guys from south Africa.

3:45 IM SO HAPPY THAT EVEN THE TECHS FEEL OUR PAIN, ive wanted to get my hands on a c7 EU center console and swap it out so my start and volume knobs would be on the drivers side
@ RacerXDrag PJ hopefully you told Mat to buy Ross tech VCDS for his car so he can sort out his problems when he’s back home 😎😂 So cool you got to meet and interact with Mat! He’s always upbeat and it was great to you having a good time working with him!
I love ❤️ MAT and his father great time and laughter 😊
I work in corporate finance......PJ makes me want to be a tech. His genuine positive attitude is contagious. Geat vid.
My cheeks hurt watching mat's videos, what a package of joy, happiness & positivity he & his dad is
You always find the best people for your videos - great job and I LOL'd at Hard Work Beats Tavarish.
The journey you took me on with car. DUDE. What an epic journey, it aged me a year in an hours times. FANTASTIC. For what it's worth from an over the hill ford parts changer. You reminded me what we are capable of with perseverance and a big bank account. Good stuff. Thank you for this. May God bless and keep you in all you do. I tip my hat to you and your team.
I think outside of the murcilago build, this is one of the most ups and down builds you have ever had 😂
Congratulations. Great achievement. And great commitment, no retreat. Full-on application. Good humour. A pleasure to follow you and your experiences with this car. Thanks.
The happy mood all af you are radiating is just so admirable! Brings a lot of smiles on my face too 😀
I just chuckle when I hear your dad talk and looking at him. So much joy!
Mat, love your upbeat attitude, and that of the guys around you, thank you for the upload 👍
What a nice and genuine guy PJ is. Great energy on camera.
So good to get this car to this level! Huge congrats to everybody who has been involved! Awesome Matt thx phil
Love the Audi tech keeping it real haha 😂
PJ we love you. What an amazing gentleman and an outstanding mechanic.
Great video PJ! Glad to see your new friends from across the pond!! 😊
By far my favorite car that’s ever been created, was awesome seeing you guys work on it. Was awesome seeing how the adjustments are made to the car instead of just showing a before and after.
7:48 No cup of tea for Matt or his dad only yfoods 😂👌🏽
Hands down best you tube channel....I have so much fun watching you guys having fun..
Oh man, what a journey that was with this car... for me the best playlist of your fixes so far! Can´t imagine how frustrating it must have been at some points... I am quite sure that I might have given up after the second engine pull... I truely admire the passion and will of you and your supporters around you! Keep doing what you do, and never give up! HWBT!!!
The ups and downs, highs and lows of this story had me up late to see it to the end.
Great video. Great content. All involved were amazing as always. PJ was wicked too. Keep up the good work.
That Audi dude is gold!
PJ has such great energy!
Get PJ part of the team, He brings a cool vibe to the chanel, it feels like he’s been here forever
That guy from audi was so nice!! Legend
Regarding the STARTER BUTTON, I think it's in the perfect place on my 2014 A6. I love the button layout SO much that I don't want to upgrade to the newer cars where the layout is different.
Mat, fly this back to The uk and race it on carwow🙂.. I'm speaking for everybody
It will blow up again 😂😂
@@JoshAl-Harthi 😭..... I'll be on my knees it doesn't because i Love Mat Armstrong so much that if his work fails i feel bad!
Mat we need a video of you just saying “Noooo” from when the Audi was smoking
PJ needs to be on the channel more often, in or out of work :)
Have Fun with the Broken RS :) Hope you can get it to where the Mclaren is🔥
Hopefully it's a good inspection I'm about to see🇿🇦 love from SA
Laughed so much when they showed Freddie working on they cable.. 😂😂 classic! Love the chemistry with Freddie! Genuine people attract genuine people... 👌
Matt this is such an amazing channel as I have said numerous times. You and your Dad and friends are simply awesome to watch. Enjoy every second with your Dad!!!!!
I still can’t get over those wheels! Wheelmania smashed it out the park 🔥
Hi love from south africa 🇿🇦
PJ you are awesome on camera and need to start a channel. I have told Matt in the comments countless times invest in a nice dry ice cleaner and it will increase value. Thank you for validating my multiple post! Lol I hope to see you PJ doing a channel in the future. Matt awesome job on everything but the power cable and cleaning. Keep up the great hard-work, awesome work and channel.
Pj is such a great guy, respect. He really loves his job!
much love from uganda 🇺🇬
That audi tech is sound 😂
A true test of perseverance. I love your father's positivity and it sure has rubbed off on you. Even in your darkest hour you smile and laugh in the face of it. This is something we can all take and apply to our own lives. Thanks for sharing!
Great video , loved PJ’s vibes and great to see Audi letting you do what you need to do and not limiting what PJ could say 👌
Tony is getting to become the star of the show. We need more guys in life like PJ !!!
PJ - what a breath of fresh Air he is ... seems a real down-to-earth great guy !!
