Finally fixed my new-to-me 2019 F06 front passenger door today and this video was, by far, the best guidance I had to get it apart and back together again. Thank you Sir.
Very helpful! Just did this in my m6 The grinding noise was awful . Nice tutorial
Thank you for making this video! My f06 gc just started doing this today. I don't see alot of video on repairs for these cars. I really appreciate it Sir.
good luck fixing it.
Got an F12 that this happened to on both doors. Exact same noise. Those motors also control the window so we just disconnected one of the wire plugs, not both. Window works, but soft close doesn't. However there's no noise. Looking for that part I think you got the F10 version which is about $100. The f12 is $500+. I think you may have just saved me $800. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR POSTING THIS.
U sure it fits? From research i did they r different parts
Thanks for the video. Helped me take care of the door on my F10.
I have the same problem on my 650i GC. Thanks for the vid!
Bet, ima try to fix mine now. Thanks for the walk through
Thank you for your Video Its great Help for me.
Aww I thought these were being installed in the Mustang! Good stuff as always man.
nah, i pretty much have to slam those doors as hard as i can lol.
Nice video. Enjoy the videos...
Brave man! Good data, even for other BMW model owners.
brave.... more like backed into a corner, this went from a simple DIY to a full on dissection lol.
Thanks for this vidéo !
Got the same noise on my car. Gonna fix it myself. Good video.
Btw, did you get the oem parts or third party one?
Thank you so much for the video. Did you have to reattach the inner layer of sound deadening with new weather stripping?
i was advised by a BMW tech that it's very important to make sure the plastic layer is resealed. you can buy new butyl adhesive, or reuse what's there, just make sure you have a good seal or you will be letting rain water inside the car.
Quite genius
Mines does the same thing I have a F10 550 do I need just the first silver lock actuator or should I order the whole assembly with the black motor attached it’s an option to order ether or single or as the whole piece like you have
Great info here, I am late to the party, but I’m curious to know, how hard do you think this would be to make work on an old car? The electrical is my concern, I’m assuming it might need more than just a power and ground.
Nothing is impossible, but when it comes to weather or not something is worth the effort, i would say this one may fall into the category of probably not worth it, but i would encourage you to buy a unit and see if you can hack it, maybe you can make it work.
F85 X5M owner here. How much did this cost? Thinking I may have to try the DIY, I have the same issue minus the grinding noise
it costs whatever the part costs. You'll have to check with your local dealer. I bought the wrong part off Amazon attempting to cut costs, which came back to bite me, but i was able to make it work. I would highly reccomend getting the correct part to start with.
Once you repaired the broken plastic sleeve on the cable, was the new part containing the motor/gears grafted to the old cable and latch?
yes, i destroyed the old part to cut it open and look inside, it was fused shut. the new part could be unscrewed. it was a riskey move for me, but it worked out. Lesson learned, BUY THE CORRECT PART.
@@Sgt.Slides thank you for the response! I wonder if the broken plastic sleeve can be repaired without opening the old unit or does the old housing have to be opened up to fully access/repeat the broken plastic piece?
How can we support the channel for more M6 videos? Thank you.
i'm not going to be doing an all out build on that car, it's pretty close to finished. There may be a glamour video coming up, and a video on the night vision, what more would you like to see?
Premium Fuel Mag maybe service items next? I was going to do the transmission service (fluids, filters, pan). Fuel system, replacing injectors, maybe filters too. I really appreciate you making these videos, keep us posted if you set up a patreon or something.
I have the same problem, can I just replace the lock so that I don't take the softclose in the set
Hey do you have to program the new actuator, or just plug and play
plug n play
I know I'm late to the Party but I an X5 with this issue. Is it possible to disconnect the power to the soft close and still have the locking mechanism work ? Also, are you saying it was not a gearing issue but a cabling issue? If so, what did you have to do to the cable to make it work? Is that piece that snapped replaceable?
you should be able to un plug the soft close and everything should function normally. In my case, yes, it was an issue with the cable. The end of the cable that holds it in place on the motor housing was snapped in half. i cleaned it, slid it back together, and applied lots of super glue, then i was able to put the cable back in the slot where it belongs and re assemble the drive unit. No, you cannot get a replacement cable or a piece to repair the cable. All of that is part of the soft close module. You need to buy a whole new soft close module like i did, but make sure you have the right one.
@@Sgt.Slides Old comment, but in case someone is looking for this info -- over a 2 or 3 month period, I've had 3 door mechanisms fail -- I unplugged the fuse for the 3 doors and now the doors work like a normal non-soft-close door.
@@ImranNiazi if i had known that i probably would never have fixed my door lol. Wonder why you keep having issues, do you use the soft close feature often? The only time i use it is when i deliberately remember to do it. which is not often at all.
@@ImranNiaziHi, really helpful insight there. One question: Is it 1 fuse that protects all 4 doors’ soft close function or is it 1 fuse for each door?
@@Sgt.Slides soft close is automatic and engages everytime you close the door
I have the same issue on my 2009 e63 650i. can you supply part numbers, please?
Great video by the way!
@@Maddo_Aussie As you could see, i had the wrong part, so you may not want my part numbers, also, those may not be what your e63 uses. I suggest that you go to REALOEM.com and try to find it. I've been using realoem for years to find diagrams and part numbers.
@@Sgt.Slides Cheers mate!
Do you know what fuse to pull to simply prevent the ak47 noise lol
I have not researched it, but i would not recommend jerry rigging a broken door latch, it's electronic, not mechanical like most cars. I have actually seen instances where people cant close their doors at all. Pulling a fuse could cause the latch not to work.
Hey, I have the same problem how do you opened it ?
i cut it open. I DO NOT recommend trying to repair the part yourself. you're much better off buying the correct replacement part and installing it.
How many miles did you buy it with?
about 53k
@@Sgt.Slides any issues with it since you got it beside this?
