Had my engine replaced about 8k km ago and just recently I started to hear this weird noise. I know our cars direct injection is very noisy but this noise stands out, its a loud clunk over the loud ticking noise which is made by the injectors. I've been told that our cars make this noise and...

A customer of mine dropped off their 18 q50 300hp yesterday for an engine replacement (rod knock). pulled the engine out last night and i was inspecting the turbos only to notice that the shaft/turbines on either turbo do no spin as if they are locked in to place? is there something electrical...

Saw a post where AMS has the turbo upgrade kit for around 9k ( not just the stage 2 turbos on their site). My question is this. Still planning on upgrading the down pipes and exhaust as well as the heat exchanger but can you just throw a kit like that on a car or just upgrade the turbos...

Hi everyone! New to the forums, and also new to the q50! I'm loving the car so far, and I scoured the community here before making my purchase (2016 3.0T Q50). It's a great place! I've noticed on and off that there's some sort of squeal when my car gets above ~2500 RPM. It's not super...
