      Hi there. Rods only need to be replaced if the bearing spun because it ruins the bore. Since these were not spun, I reused them.

Things changed so far: - Fuel Pump - MAF sensor - Spark Plugs - Thermostat - Fuel Injectors (and coded) - Oil Change Also did smoke test, no issues. Next on my list would be: - HPFP - Oxygen Sensors Running out of options lol...

    • @bimmer.doctor
      @bimmer.doctor 9 дней назад

      Yeah, you definitely need to stop firing the parts canon and find a good shop who can do a proper diagnostic. Obviously there is a root cause and just guessing which parts to change will be costing you a lot of money! Good luck on the search!

      Thank you! There is a valve inside the muffler that opens and closes depending on conditions to make the car louder or quieter. And when the spring gets loose, like you see in the video, it causes a really annoying exhaust rattle. Quick and easy fix to resolve it though.

    What was the weight capacity of your lift table… ready to drop my engine assembly, but a little concerned about the weight. Otherwise I’d have to do a pallet and a pallet jack, but would rather not bring that home from work!! Thanks again for the amazing videos & help!

    • @bimmer.doctor
      @bimmer.doctor 27 дней назад

      The table can support 1,540lbs. You definitely need to have a good table to do this. Another thing is to make sure you add counter weights in the front seats, or put a jack in the rear of the car to prevent it from tipping over when you drop all that weight out the front! Good luck!

    @spulbi Месяц назад

    Yeah, this is the fix. My 2015 X5 has been getting drivetrain malfunction events, with a "low boost" code. Wastegate rattles up and down a crazy amount. Sounds like i have to drop the subframe... or the whole engine to fix this. Sigh.... For those wondering, it wasn't the bpv or the MAF. Dang wastegate. I've also replaced the ewg, and that kept me going for another 2 years without codes.

    Thank you yet again for an awesome video… question; I am currently swapping a 2011 750li N63 with a factory reman engine I found in a local salvage yard. I have a 2009 750i with a locked engine… do you think it matters to the dealers if I send in the 2011 engine as a core so that I have it ready to go for the 2009? Wasn’t sure if they would track the Vin on the motor or what made sense… Thanks again for all of your knowledge sharing!

    • @bimmer.doctor
      @bimmer.doctor Месяц назад

      If you got the reman engine at a salvage yard, why do you need to return a core to the dealer? Either way, I don't think it matters. As long as it's the same engine generation it's fine. If it was a newer TU they wouldn't accept that, but the same generation I don't think it'll be a problem.

    Oil Priming; your screen shot, in no way, shape or form demonstrates that "all manufacturers require in their service manual when replacing an engine". You've made a claim, and then done absolutely nothing to back it up. But thank you for quoting on screen what I wrote. At least some people will see it and know the truth. According to you since my car sits all week, I must have destroyed the engine several times now.

    You are awesome brother, i was looking for this video for a loooooongtime, I couldn't find no one doing a video with very specific instructions. May I ask how many hours you spent doing this job?,and, it didn't give you problems aligning the rack and the steering wheel?, in some cars usually we have to turn the steering wheel all the way to the right(5 turns) and than turn it back half(2.5 turns) to the left. Otherwise wheel alignment is not correct. You guys with garages are different level 😂, here in NYC we do it on the streets 😁😁.

    • @bimmer.doctor
      @bimmer.doctor Месяц назад

      Thank you my friend! I don't remember how many hours it took, but it was a big job. I believe it took me two days. To align the rack I didn't have any problems, bolted right back to the same spot and then obviously brought the car for a proper alignment when I was done. Doing this job on the street sounds like a nightmare 😂, good luck!

    Hey, great movie! Why is the scale on the straps 0.25mm to 0.76mm when the technical data says a play of 0.025mm - 0.046mm? I measured using red strips from another company - pastigauge. The scale on them is 0.025mm - 0.175mm. They leave a much larger mark on the tenon, but it is oval. My result is 0.025mm-0.038mm. I'm concerned that there may be too little clearance. Can you explain this to me? Maybe by purchasing green stripes the shape of the trace would automatically decrease, showing a value of 0.25-0.38?
