I did mine almost two years ago. I just removed the SC, then dumped the oil out into a container. Filled new oil with the same amount of the old oil that was removed, then reinstall.

To do the job properly cost me like $30 for the sealant, $15 Black RTV for cam covers. So overall it's cheaper than the sleeves, but the sleeves are a...

Same stuff.

It's an Eaton supercharger, not built by Audi. I put the AC Delco fluid in about 50,000 kms ago. Pretty straight forward procedure to change the oil.

Wow what horrible luck, sorry to hear.

As for your issue, I'm betting if you just replace the board under the center console, everything will work normal again.

Did you watch the vid? It is clearly cranking over just fine, not "rusted". Just not firing.

I'd start with fresh fuel, fresh fluids and a fresh battery.

I would start by getting some reading on fuel pressures. Hook up a gauge and see what kind of numbers you're getting when the tank is full and almost empty.

Mine make a "squeal" and "popping" sound, but only when the temp overnight has gone below -20C (-4F). But only for a few seconds and only when it's cold.

Does yours happen at warmer temps??

Maybe the guide pins are dirty and not properly lubed? This can cause the calipers to stick and overheat as well.
