I used to have an e36. One day my fan went out and I was stuck in traffic. I had an obd2 reader on and was watching water temps and I got all the way up to 240 degrees and the needle still never moved from the middle. I’ve heard lots of stories of people blowing headgaskets before the temp needle ever moves. The e36 dummy gauge is so dumb it rarely ever moves
Then your sending unit is SHOT....
On some older Ford vehicles, the oil pressure "guage" in the dash was a dummy guage, and the needle would ALWAYS move to the exact same spot on the scale, as long as the engine had ANY amount of oil pressure. The needle of the guage was either on or off. There was NO actual measuring of pressure happening there.
Ford tried to make it appear as though when their engines accumulated some miles and got older, that they STILLheld the same amount of oil pressure as when they were new. It was some lying trickery.
I don't trust ANY manufacturer that has to make their product appear better than it is by some dishonest fuckery like that. 😤 🤬
@@davelowetsthe Ford Fusion from 2008 has a dummy gauge blew a head gasket as a teen from too much oil but I was confused how it was the oil because the pressure said it was fine could’ve saved myself like 600$
Mine definitely moves to pinging red when it’s hot. Only overheated once when my fans stopped working. Gauge did exactly what it was supposed to
I drove an E36 M3 160k miles. I was driving home and noticed the temp gauge was moving toward the red zone. I got home before it got to red, pulled the water pump, and immediately found the problem. It had plastic water pump impeller that cracked and came off the shaft, so it was not pumping anything.
Even on regular BMW's like a normal e46 325i the temp gauge is just a suggestion. It's + or - 10-15C (or more) off in either direction as a buffer. They just want the needle in the middle. As soon as you start to see the needle move turn it off. You don't know exactly what the temp is. You can check the sensor temp at the bottom of the radiator on the e46 on the gauge readout section.

Fun fact: when you heat up metal to almost its melting point, and cool ot slowly, that is called annealing, which reduces the hardness if the metal and makes it more ductile. If you overheat and engine, and let it cool that has the potential to not fix all your problems and could lead to way worse problems if not checked out.

Definitely a fascinating experiment! I admire the commitment to testing this to the very limit and providing such a thorough breakdown of the results.
The older BMW (E36 E46) engines are extremely solid, I'm not surprised to see that it held up so well. The problem with older BMWs is usually their use of crappy plastics that get brittle, crack/disintegrate when they fail and all of the leaks that occur while they're failing. -A former (and future) E46 owner
Been a owner for a little over a year now and yeah the only parts I had to replace from the older owner were the crappy plastic bits like the coolant system and CCV (I messed up my CCV replacement so gonna swap to catch can because I'm not pulling that intake again) but the engine is really solid!
I had a BMW E46 (2000 328i Sport Package in Stahlblau Metallic) that I rebuilt from a low-speed front-end collision car.
An Expedition had stopped short going down a hill and pro-rated its front-suspension so the rear was higher up, and the previous owner of the E46 was unable to stop in time and it slid under the aforementioned Expedition, so most of the impact was caught by the hood and cooling system).
The airbags never went off. I replaced all the damaged exterior panels but was able to reuse the front bumper and ps front fender; tried going with an Aluminum rad and thermostat housing but both had manufacturing defects when they arrived, so I ordered the OEM bits to get it running and just never got around to getting it sorted for plastic-free.
It drove great, definitely a driver's car, but it did like to pop up with random new issues it seems. For instance, I was running the heat one winter and noticed a burning smell, and expected it to be the blower motor, but it turns out the steering wheel slip ring had melted and failed.
I bought it for $2k, rebuilt it for $2k more, put 60K more on the odometer, then sold it for $5k. I disclosed the accident damage to the new owner because it was not reported to insurance. I also showed them pictures and all receipts for BMW OEM parts replaced throughout the rebuild. I had gotten the panel gaps perfect and the car drove straight because of the nature of the impact, so it was like nothing ever happened.
Yah good engines but man those plastics suck so muchhh. Rule of thumb tho that dial every goes pass the middle turn off the car and limb it home or tow it to save ur engine
Best thing to do with m52s is routine maintenance on the cooling system. Most cars, like my hondas, you just replace components when they fail. I probably still have original hoses on there (1994 accord), I know I've had to replace the radiator and thermostat a few times though. My e39, after having it overheat at 75k miles, I make sure to replace all the hoses and other components every 50k miles.
Why no company step up and make more robust plastic spare parts ?
2:07 DUDE THE ENGINE MOUNTS
Yeah, the engine had enough and really wanted to get out of the car 😂
The engine went: GET ME OUT OF HERE

@@davelowets
@@davelowets nah. an engine only moves that much when a mount is spearated, good mounts dont move more than maybe 20-30mm if its hydraulic engine mounts, good oem rubber mounts dont move more than ~10mm. i built an extra mount from the head to inner fender and used new oem rubber mounts in my volvo 740 1987 and the engine doesn't move more than 1-2mm, driving it you would think it's solid mounted drivetrain almost haha (gearbox and exhaust is solid mounted but who cares about vibrations in a "racecar"? lol)

When you overheat a car it gets too hot.
This guy is a genius
now that’s a takeaway
Ground-breaking observation
What a hot takeaway.
In the early-mid 00s when we were pushing the m52 headgaskets were our #1 enemy. I started calling all of us "hose squeezers" cause every time any of us walked past the car on the dyno we would squeeze the upper rad hose to see if the coolant system was pressurized. When we did the first 1000whp example we ended up O-ringing the block.

This is probably my favorite video you guys have made. I’ve pulled these BMW straight six motors apart so many times on my own cars and a few buddies. It’s just really cool to see what YOURS looks like on the inside. Probably sounds really dumb. But I love it
Not dumb👍😝🙂... I was interested to hear your perspective 👍🛵
Not at all! You hear horror stories of bad previous owners and you start to wonder what kinda damage is in your car :o
This video hurt as a E46 owner as i feel like i lost a brother but at the same time it gave me more faith in my car to see that thing abused and honestly be "okay" and i learned a good bit about the engine so it was a worthy sacrifice
Exactly my thoughts as well. I love my E46
Wym bro I have that same car, an E36 328i and I was on the edge of my seat looking at them open that engine, I loved this video, those m50,m52,m54 can take a ton of abuse, this is something we bmw owners already now but it's great to see the donut guys prove it

it's ok, but the repair cost exceeds the value of the (repaired) car if it's done properly by an expert.
@@radsbosscraft8476 The engines are worthless you'd just buy another.
Great tear down and explanation! I'll add something from my experiences. When removing the head bolts its a good idea to keep track of how tight, or hard, they are to loosen. Recently had a 2.4L toyota engine that was overheating. Went to remove the cylinder head and 3 bolts took almost no torque to loosen. Instantly new something was way wrong. Turns out the threads in the block pulled out due to the overheat. Ended up installing steel inserts in the bolt for all 10 bolts, and getting the cylinder head rebuilt. Car is running perfect.
That's because Toyota uses mush to cast their engine blocks... 🤮
BMW engines are scrap once they overheat for that reason, you'll need to put inserts on every stud. It's cheaper and easier to just buy another engine.
@@user-ue6iv2rd1n the insert kit I bought for the Toyota wasn't too expensive really cuz you're paying for the tools that you can use on multiple engines. It really wasn't that hard to use. But it makes a huge mess to drill out all the holes

My favorite of your videos in a long time, i love seeing these technical sciencey videos like we used to get in Jobe's Miata days
Engine reconditioner here - your head is likely scrap at this point. It’s fine to skim the head, however there’s a good chance it’s not going to last long term. Once you overheat aluminium, it loses its hardness and will likely have head gasket issues in future. A good shop will have a tester for this. Also, if the head gasket side is bent, so is the camshaft side, so you will experience excessive wear on the camshaft and cam caps. You can straighten the head to some degree by superheating small spots of alloy on the camshaft side to make the top side of the head contract, however the material hardness issue remains and this added stress could cause cracking later on. The valves generally won’t seal after a significant overheat event as the seats warp, which can be fixed by recutting the seats and refacing the valves, however the aluminium around the seats may have softened and loosened the press fit of the seats, potentially causing them to crack and drop out later on. You could remove the seats and machine the sockets to refit new seats, but at this point, the best fix here is to get a brand new head.
Ack.... I've given them haircuts, and reused warped heads ALL the time, and haven't had one prematurely fail yet..
They're going to 2J swap it anyway too, good to know though
@@davelowets as I said, lots of factors at play here, and in my opinion, it’s not worth the risk of having a fully rebuilt engine turned into a paperweight because of a $10 valve seat falling out.
@mayaswellbethewifesaccount7625 Never had that happen either.....🤷🏻
A head would have to be REALLY overheated BAD before leaky valves and falling out seats would become an issue. At that point, the warpage would be obviously severe enough that a minor surface cut wouldn't take all the warp out of it anyway, and chances are that it will be cracked also.
Yep, THEN it would be time for a new/used head. If it were warped so bad that the cam caps would be wearing funny, you'd easily be able to feel that by turning the cam by hand. I've never come across a head that was overheated and warped that bad. I'm sure it can happen, but it would take a total idiot to get the engine that hot, and I've not come across that much of an idiot yet in the hundreds of head gasket jobs I've done.
Edit: I take that back... I DID have a valve seat come loose once on a Briggs&Stratton riding mower engine, because it overheated as the engine was packed full of grass under the tins.
@@davelowets many people are ignorant and just drive their vehicles until they stop.. so with that in mind, after a good overheat event which has caused a “gasket failure”, is often (but not always) a result of the head contracting and causing little pressure on the fire ring, causing the gasket to blow. As I said before, on an alloy head you can often see the brown/black discolouration accompanied by a ridge where the gasket has pressed into the now softened alloy. By the time you can feel this fretting, the head usually has 006”+ bend, and many heads we see have up to .030” bend and were still being driven. While tensioned to the block, only the fretting is an issue as the bolts prevent the warpage from being apparent. You could slap the head back on and the head will straighten back out, but that doesn’t solve the hardness or fretting issue, and machining the bend back into it isn’t an option (unless you’re familiar with jo8e heads on minimum thickness at the rear) 😜 We use a vacuum tester to check the valves for correct sealing, but at home you can pour fuel into the port and if not seated it will pour out past the valve. If you were to remove the springs and lap or blue the valves, you’ll see the valve only contacts the seat on 2 points opposite each other. This is a sign that the interference on the seat has changed as the head has expanded and contracted in different axis’s. Now the reason I mentioned .006” or more of bend, is that the cam typically has around .002” clearance, and as you can imagine, when you tighten the cam caps at either end, the cam won’t necessarily lock solid but it won’t spin freely as it should. Most cams are cast iron, but many modern vehicles have cams that are machined hollow steel tubes with lobes pressed on. If you continue to force a cast iron cam to bend with every rotation, it will eventually fatigue and snap, which I have seen dozens of times from people ignoring my advice. We do around 80-100 jobs a month, and have done for the last 40 something years, so just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen.
I had a Chevy Caprice which blew a thermostat. My only chance was to drive it home about 10 kilometers without coolant. when I got home the engine was so hot that when I pulled out the dipstick rain that hit it instantly sizzled away. Dropped in a new thermostat and an oil change and that baby ran like a Swiss clock without zero problems. Gotta love those Oldsmobile V8s.
10 km at low RPM/load on an engine that started off cold is probably fine. Warming an engine enough to open the thermostat usually takes 5-10 minutes unless it's like 100F degrees or something. A blown thermostat also is usually at least partly open, so you get less coolant but still some flowing through. Dipsticks will get hot anyway, so that's not anything special.
@@nunyabusiness896 Yeah but I had already driven 10 km and then the thermostat broke in a way that It was not able to open so all the coolant spilled out and boiled away so the engine was completely without coolant. Surely at low rpm cause it is a V8 but I assure you that it was properly overheated.
@@masterkaljami6822shocked you made it home, one tough engine. bet it needed a tune-up though lol
had a radiator blow in my 07 ram 1 week after i bought it brought it to the dealer he threw stop leak in which destroyed the water pump and thermostat had a 10 mile drive to work all backroads took it like that for a week before i could afford a new water pump thermostat and radiator and it runs perfect to this day and almost daily go up to 4500 RPMs gotta love those gen 3 5.7s reliability
The Olds 307 was a TOUGH engine
I love the technical explanations with examples
My father has a 60y/o Italian coupe. In the late 1980´s he overheated it twice, both times rather seriously, then he left it in the corner of the garage until 2018 when I decided to fix it (it was also rusty, the wiring was bad, the brakes needed not just overhaul, but a total rebuild to accept other disks due to the original ones to being available anymore, and other stuff).
The engine was iron block with an aluminum head and oil pan. When we disassembled it, we have found out that almost all the piston rings are snapped into multiple pieces, and almost all the ribs on all the pistons were broken. The head was bent, and there was some carbon buildup on the valves. However, the important things - cylinder walls and bearings were perfectly okay. So we had the head machined, cleaned it, bought new pistons and rings, put it back together, and it runs better than ever. Despite being overheated 2 times so much that it ceased to work.

This video was so interesting, love it! I would love to see a full rebuild of this engine.
I had a similar issue with my 86 Datsun 720 pickup. Had the Z24 engine (awful design) and was constantly trying to melt itself out of the engine bay. Finally took the head off figuring out it was pretty warped. Thankfully I had access to CNC milling machine at the fab shop I worked at so I took the head in on a weekend and shaved off around 12 thousandths to make it as flat as possible. Lapped the valves and reset the lashing, put it all back together and it ran great. Then two weeks later it blew a goofball sized hole out the exhaust side of the #3 cylinder 😂 found out later the auto trans was really bad and was putting the engine under too much load just trying to go down the road so it blew itself apart
C'mon man.... I am NOT buying that story.. 😒
@@davelowets I don't care 😂 believe whatever you want bud, doesn't change the fact that I still did it and the people I actually care about "believing" were there for it. Some random guy's opinion, who's existence was null to me before this comment, doesn't really matter to me in the end. I just like sharing my story with other car enthusiasts because we've all had some problematic vehicles that taught us valuable lessons.
That wrench at the engine burial 😂... oh my god that was great comedic timing.
I once had to repair an N52 engine after it had overheated. Not only did I have to get the head machined all the way to the max tolerance and use a thicker head gasket, I also needed to repair all the head bolt threads in the block with a special jig. It's a bad feeling when you're on the 3rd stage of the torque sequence and the threads rip out of the magnesium alloy block.
We warped a mk4 2.0L head at a race recently. It could still run but barely held compression. The exhaust header was keeping the aluminum head from warping so much so that the valve lifters seized when we removed it.

This is a great donut video. You just taught so much to people in simplistic terms!
My '95 Miata overheated last summer. Me and a roommate went for a quick trip to the train station to pick up my bicycle. Probably somewhere on the 5 min trip back either the thermostat gave out or the 27+ year old line ripped while my roomate was driving and I was cycling back home. The engine ran with barely any coolant for all little while but always below 3000rpm and never any faster than 30km/h. Seeing my roomate panicking next to a smoking engine bay gave me quite the scare but I had a local mechanic do a compression check on all cylinders and they all were totally fine. Engine stil runs great aswell, gotta love japanese reliability!
So what happened? Was the thermostat stuck, or did a hose blow? Not hard to see which one it was....
@@davelowets if there's no coolant i think there's just a leakage
Really helpful video dudes my dad used to be a mechanic but I never got to play on the inside of a car like that and had no idea what over heating could cause to the engine, but could tell you that blowing a coolant hose would have got you to overheat that engine super fast as just happened to me back on valentine’s 💔

I think you guys completely misunderstood the measurements when testing the head warp. 2000th of an inch is WIDER than 6000ths of an inch. You needed to go to a SMALLER number in order to test how bad the warp was. You tried with thinner and thinner strips.
No they used 2/1000 and 6/1000
But 2000th of an inch does not mean 2/1000, rather it means 1/2000 inches.

I feel this has been true for a couple decades, but I'm guessing you are on the younger side. Back in the '70s and '80s the quality of steel in the automotive industry was pretty horrible and radiators rusted out very regularly. Chevy heater core plugs did this well into the 90s. Back then, detailed gauges were not as prevalent and you often didn't know there was a problem until the idiot light came on
I agree.. But I'd like to add 90+ percent of cars do not have oil pressure Guages anymore... So sometimes you just don't know that you don't have oil circulating correctly.
My friend bought a new b52 and after 2 laps it already smoked
Being a machinist who machines and builds anything from a standard rebuild to wild shit on a daily.... I've started to hate when they go into engines. So many things that just aren't right. Like spraying air into the ports to check valves. You can do that on a fresh valve job that's perfect and show a leak. Air pressure overcomes the springs. Seen many of valve jobs sold that way when it would of ran just fine lol.
Yeah, the pressure inside cylinder is applied from the other side and "seals" the valves harder. They do it backwards, forcing them open. IDK what they trying to test here.
@@donutsleader using feelers to test the surface of the heads condition is pretty dumb too. I can't count the amount of times I've been told "just take 4thou it's only warped 4thou" and it takes 30 to fully clean up lol
Air is being sent through the plug hole into the cylinder as is standard w leakdown testing. They ain't doing anything backwards. You two clowns are guilty of bass-ackward-ness by commenting before figuring out wtf's actually goin on. smh fcol
Amazing concept, thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish, thank you for always making such great videos.
The THPS special skate move sound with the wrench flip "the 900" a small detail the did not go unnoticed 😅
The only thing that fails when an engine overheats is the driver for not knowing their engine's limits
I stg these guys are the worst at keeping their cars in one piece 😂
Sheeish. Now that's alot of damage!!! 😅
You posted this a minute after the video was posted. Didn't watch to the end?
Didn't talk about clogged radiators, failing cooling fans or corrosion in coolant systems
I loved the added wrench and dirt after the roses
Maybe some useful info: that maximum skim/warpage tolerance is also there because you risk breaking the camshaft. If you machine the head when it's too far gone, the bottom may be flat but the rest is still warped. So when you mount the cam(s), you bend it, and eventually, it breaks. My automotive teacher told me this has happened several times at the BMW dealership he worked at.
So happy to see informative content from Donut. It’s been a while 🔥
Thank you for filming at 2160 P. Not enough channels are actually using the higher resolution.
You want to go and buy all those other channels a better camera?
@davelowets Even if you upscale to 4K you can circumvent the 1080P premium tier.
Had done an engine rebuild on my polo 3 GTI in June last year. Wish I had seen this before.
You should have been there - the bearings on the pistons connecting rods....
Makes me wonder what they did with my car - seeing what yours went threw with.
The crankshafts bearings were good so I reused those 💀
Im glad they get to have fun while making these videos
THIS feels like classic Donut content, thanks guys
I have a e36 318is with 276k miles I use for drifting, besides headgaskets I don't think my engine has ever been opened. I'm planning to open it up at the end of the next drift season as it still read good for compression at the end of the season
I already knew but these guys are hilarious.Thanks for the funny content that actually teaches people
This is the most educative video that I've ever seen (about an engine)
I love the break down of every part. Awesome video guys
Way too cool I went to the Peterson in October and it was the best time I’ve ever had they basement garage is absolutely insane
2:07 that engine mount is toast
man donut has come a longgg way. loved em from day 1
17:45 reminded me of that part from the movie Tarzan where they make music with all the random house things
More content like this, these are the best kinds of donut videos!
This is such a “hell yeah” kind of video. Good shit
Especially on days like today where it's only 45° Fahrenheit in other words, shorts weather in Wisconsin
I'm dead... I'm getting flashbacks to my 02 Civic's blown headgasket. Chronic overheating is pain. Civic's running great now though
Love you guys! Would love to show off my 1950 Willys Jeepster at your Peterson Cruz-in. ( it really is the grandmother of all jeeps. 😊)
props to edit team on this one
