I had the same problem when I changed my n47 engine the boost pipe popped out on test drive and it was stuttering but I was lucky and like you I wasn't far from home
Great Video George, Just note guys some turbos have filters in the oil pipes to/from them make sure they are clean or replace them. Crank case breather is there to draw fumes/ moister out of the engine its has the spring as a oneway valve so if you get a "backfire" (not common now days) but if you do get a backfire in the inlet manifold you don't set fire to the oil vapour in the engine , so yes a good point to clean that out while you was in there. And one thing spotted on your bench CG29 NEVER use copper grease on aluminium brake callipers that will introduce a third metal (steel, copper,aluminiun)= electrolyses = stuck pads and callipers degrading and a that VW clunk when you go from forward to reverse baking use high temp grease/ silicon ht grease or Au grease.
I had every confidence in you sorting it out done a few turbos over the years and it always stressful until you run them up . Can’t wait for the next video 👍🏻
Intresting how diffrent versions off the 3.0 engine has diffrent set ups. For example on my 40d twin turbo it has a circle style filter on the head / at top off the engine and nothing at the side. Both turbos live on top of eachother on the left side of the engine where you said the air filter is
I think you meant that the turbos are on the right side of the engine 😊 Anyway the N57 has the timing chain in the rear of the engine. Otherwise the N57 is easier to work on than the M57.
Awesome job George, hope everything went well with the making and you managed to get the intercooler pipe fitted properly buddy. Love watching your video, I can't wait for the next one. Happy New Year.
Appreciate it.. Yeah unfortunately there is not much I can do when working outside in the dark.. I am planning on building a garage: ruclips.net/video/xKzLdvCD_l0/видео.html
nice video. About to do the same on my wifes X5. Turbo failed badly and car ended up in a runaway condition revving its nuts off for a good few minutes. Anyways, it seems to have survived the ordeal after some testing. What I'm most curious about is what do you think caused your turbo the fail - do you have any ideas? Also is the car still running ok 6 months later?
The intake pipe that you mention is a nightmare to get back on (42:26); can you give any hints on how you managed it? I can barely see the pipe, so I'm trying to figure out how I'm supposed to get my hand in there to force it onto the turbo. Did you push it with a tool? Come up from underneath the engine or the side or from the top to the right of the pipe itself? So frustrated. I changed the thermostat and water pump on mine and everything is completed, but I'm not 100% sure that I've got this pipe connected to the turbo as you can't even see the connection. Greatly appreciate any advice/tips!
Is it one of those quick connect style boost pipe with an internal o-ring that you're supposed push until it clicks? I had a pita of a time trying to shove it back onto the intercooler side when I replaced my N20's turbo. Like seriously I was pushing so hard the car was straining on the parking brakes. ISTA specifically mentioned that you're supposed to install them dry without any lube, but I gave up and gave it the lightest smear of engine oil. The damn thing clicked right in afterwards and so far hasn't given me any trouble with leaks or popping back off. Maybe you can install it without lube with a new pipe/o-ring, but re-installing an old one, even in good shape, I guess is less forgiving.
Hi George, glad to see you got it sorted but what's the coding/mapping you'll need to have done, where will you get it done and how much will it cost? I've seen a few X5 videos on EGR & DPF delete which mention needing to get it mapped or coded out but nobody ever explains what or why it needs doing or where to get it done and how much it costs.
Biggest problem will be that removing DPF means the vehicle is no longer compliant with Construction and Use Regulations. Which makes it illegal to use on the road. Being able to pass an MOT is irrelevant
@@bigjml Thanks George but how can you say that not passing an MOT is irrelevant.... if it doesn't pass the MOT then you can't use it which is pretty relevant to most people! I've been told that examiners are now beginning to look for signs of DPF removal and failing modified cars whether they pass the emissions test or not.
@@neiled44 The reason I say that is some DPF removers justify their position because they gut the filter and refit it and get it through an MOT because either the Tester is incompetent or they have welded it up in a place the Tester can’t see during a Test. Thats why an MOT is irrelevant, also because a diesel only has to pass a smoke test, and yes, DPF vehicles do produce some smoke when revved hard when they have some miles on them. Construction & Use Regulations are what your car NEEDS to comply with to be used on the road. Go and ask a Traffic Copper about it, or look it up. A visual inspection by an MOT Tester is just that, a visual inspection that the DPF is fitted If you have a DPF gutted/removed you can’t legally sell it without declaring it. The vehicle is uninsurable. Phone up your Insurer and ask them if they will Insure a car that isn’t Compliant with Construction & Use Regulations. This is an interesting channel but it was disappointing to see a DPF removal being performed. Would have been better to sort the issue with the EGR and DPF to retain the cars value. Though since the Turbo failed soon after it’s probably the issues with the DPF we’re caused by the soon to fail Turbo. DPF problems are either a problem with the sensors or an engine problem causing the DPF to clog up. Something that would have been obvious in a non DPF diesel as it would have been smoking from the exhaust
@@bigjml Thanks again for your reply but I fully understand the legalities of the law regarding DPF removal/gutting. I've only owned my X5 E70 30sd for a few months and my concerns are over the prevalence of videos and discussions on RUclips, Facebook and forums suggesting EGR & DPF removal /gutting rather than offering help and advise on overcoming the DPF issues by getting the engine to run right in the first place starting with a regimented preventative maintenance schedule ie. regular servicing to begin with.
Great video I have a range rover with the m57 engine in it...... And my exhaust manifold has started to blow........ What a badly designed engine....... Not sure i want to tackle this as I have no garage to work in
@@GeorgeAusters I will give it a go as it's getting on my nerves blowing and making the inside of the engine bay black with carbon. Would you advise getting a new rocker cover gasket and inlet manifold seals
Hi mate. Brilliant video. I gave this a go myself and followed everything to a strict t. I put everythint back together earlier today and ive had it turning over for so long that ive killed the battery trying to start it. It just won't start. I've checked all the connections and they seem fine. Have you got any tips or pointers that would help me out?
Yeah, I'm sure I have. But tell me the process just incase I've missed something. I tried ignition on and off a few times and then started it for maybe 10 seconds, turned it off and did that 3 or 4 times before going for it properly
Thank so much for getting back to me so quick George. I'll charge the battery and give that a go, hopefully I get it started. If that fails, I was thinking of taking the intake manifold back off and bleeding each high pressure line whilst turning the engine. There must be a lot of air in the system. I ended up buying a turbo from Vehiclo in the end. I took my original turbo to be reconditioned but it was too fatmr gone. So my cars been stood for maybe 3 weeks 😪
Having undertaken the removal and installation of the turbos on this model of vehicle, I would caution that the access is extremely limited, particularly for the main (large) unit. Should this work be encountered again in the future, then an engine out would be the preferred approach.
I looked on the website and it looks like an exchange basis and also you have to pay a £150 deposit which they return when they have the old unit. Not ideal. Cheaper places in the uk
I'm currently trying to do this on my e92, one of the underside manifold nuts is between the dpf and the manifold and I can't get to it?! It was going so well too 😭
Sorted! 😁👌🏻 I'm going to take the dpf off too so I can 'clean' it. Should I bring it through the top now the turbo and manifold is out or from underneath?

Hi George, just wanted to say hi, really enjoy your posts, like to wish you a happy new year

Vintage job there George. I have everything crossed for you. Looking forward to see if it’s fixed and the post-mortem on the old turbo.

Thanks Derek, happy new year to you too!
It's a decent size car and you'd think easy to work on. Getting it apart was like tetris. Good job and hope the remap goes well.
Definitely not easy to work in.. There’s no space for anything with it being an AWD!
Lucky you guys not affected by the ULEZ up there yet, i own an m57 and like it or not i will have to get rid of it soon
SUVs are not for the city anyway!
Great in depth video George , very interesting watch 👍🏻😎
Cheers Richard!
Well done that Man 👌 That's a lot of work to be cracking on with in sub zero temps George 👍
Certainly was!
Just fitted one of those nice turbos
Did you use my discount?
Well done George, like i knew you would 👍

Yes that’s right, needs a lot of force to push it on which it’s hard to do as there is no room in the X5 engine bay😅
Awesome work man, so changing the turbo also requires mapping, may I ask what if that is not done?
No it doesn’t require it, I’m getting it mapped because of the EGR and DPF delete
@@GeorgeAusters Ohhh understood now, so the reason you were driving the car slowly is not because of the Turbo but EGR Delete not yet mapped?
@@Xpress_Graphix No it's because the boost hose had popped off

Hi George…. Was that a twin turbo you replaced ? I thought the 3.0 Diesel has a twin turbo !
The 35D is twin turbo👍🏻
Hi George do you think any of the missing bolts or nuts have fallen into the engine which caused the turbo to fail 🙄
