Bro, I got excited watching you drive your bimmer after replacing that part. Awesome man! Got me all hype!
I love these drifts at the end of the videos!!
Thank you for sharing the video. Your assistance has been invaluable, as it has resolved the issue I was facing with my 2011 328 Xi. I am truly grateful for your help.
Cool car. Hope to get one myself one day.
Good one going with oem. I actually think it’s a smart design, the rubber prevents axial loading of the column as the car always flexes a bit and reduces vibrations. Embedded in the rubber are wires which are very stiff when taut so the steering feels direct. I think for many a solid one is a massive upgrade cause their oem one is toast like yours.
Never knew this was just a $70 fix. Cheers!
$100 mark up over 3 years is pretty crazy
Sick asss videos man and that e46 M3 💯💯💯 keep uploading more drift videos please!
that is 1 mean ass machine and thanks for the help steering coupler was a success for me!
Just found your channel and I fucking love it holy shit keep it up bro. And keep safe during this whole shit time!!!
That S54 sound though ❤❤❤
Brooo speaking life! Thank you so much 💯
Most people: “Ight I’m Boutta Head Out”
Hoon Garage: “Ight let me stop at this stop sign”
Will definitley check this out on my E46. Probably new RTABs and steering fluid change too. Lol: hoons about like Ken Block, ten minutes later gets a flat "how does this happen to me?!"
Great video 🤙🏻
Thanks bro, great video
Great video mate, need to have a look at this on my 330ci… would bad couplers explain steering wander/tramlining on uneven roads too? Thanks 👊🏼
Greetings from Poland !!! 🥰
Nice m3! I just realized you go to the same school as me. I hope to see your e46 in the parking garage near my e60.
Too bad we won’t be parking in the garage anytime soon🙃
I definitly need to do this. Hopeing my steering rack isn't trashed. Side question, did you figure out what that idle surging was? Mine does the same thing. Cleaned the ICV and throttle bodies but didn't give much improvement.
Nice drift
I installed it and the wheel is off centered a bit. How would I fix it? Do I need to take the coupler out completely and align it with one spline over or can I leave the coupler at the bottom and take the rode and turn the wheel.
Condor makes a solid one, check it out if ya haven't already. Much better then the rubber style. Great video 👍👍🔥
I thought about it but, this is my daily so I chose oem so the rubber would absorb some of the shock from rocks in the road.
@@HoonGarage 💯would be bumpy af on the road. I run one in my daily drifter but its more for the track then the road. Keep up the great content🔥👌👊
Great video, I’m actually having problems ordering this part, the company I ordered it from are telling me with the chassis number supplied I need another type, the part is a bit longer and a bit more expensive.
I’m pretty sure it’s the part further up the steering column from this part you have shown they are taking about, it’s sort of like a knuckle that rotates type thing.
Good luck bro!
Gave a like for the knowledge and a comment for the tires sake.
Great video, and very helpful! Do you have the stock steering rack, or something like CSL one?
Hi!
What material is the government coated with?
Can a bad coupler or shaft cause play with the steering wheel? I have an E90 & replaced rack & pinion, outer tie rods, sway bar link, thinking of changing control arm bushings to possibly fix play in steering so after watching this vid think this could be another cause for the play in steering that I’m overlooking. I always welcome second opinions that I can relay to my mechanic to check out
Yes, it’s mostly this.
Did that ever cause ur steering wheel to wander when driving?
Great information, I have E90 lost razor sharp , Rubbery resistance steering feel after hitting in depth bridge road gap , I showed it to couple of guys but they are saying it is normal. I know it is not normal. I dont feel like driving BMW, any suggestions please. Thanks.
It most probably is your steering guibo. You can examine it after removing your under trays.
Thank you very much for your advise. I will ask the mechanic to check specific part. Thanks.

Can this also cause wobble

Is it a 3/8 drive e10 ?

Yeahp! Skidding is what killed that steering decoupler 😅
What’s the name of this part ?
Surprised that there's a rubber bushing on an M3 and not a solid link.
Btw, did you really torque that? :D Was doing something similar on one of my cars recently and I barely managed to get a small ratchet in there, can't image a torque wrench fitting.
Just make sure she's tight with some loctite.
Life hack, just take the engine out and do it.
I did, but not bc of it, I just did it while I was in there. Still didn't torque it, just made it good and tight
❤️
Hey so I’m not a car person and I really want to get into cars and things like that. Are there any good you tubers that teach about that?
If you want to get into it, now is a harder time with the pandemic but I started getting into cars by buying a pos BMW and learning how to work on them with that car for cheap.
Oops! drift + tire = dollars.
There is a false contact on the meters when you put the warning ??
Sorry for the google translation I'm French!
Bad idea to torque it down without digital torque wrench?
Click type work just fine
Hello. Was there a knocking sound from the government on the wrong road?
Any opinions about the solid joints that are available?
I heard they add road nvh. I wanted a smooth steering feel which is why I went with the oem joint.
Great for track driving , wouldn't have it for daily, solid bushings make you feel every tiny road defect
@@aaronbligh3619exactly what i want 😂 Strongflex # race car haha
Does it work for E90s?
Yes the E90 coupler is a little different but same instructions roughly.
My steering is also like this and it wobbles at 60+mph can that help
Check other components for the wobble and prob needs an alignment
Which android unit is that? I want one of the eonon ones but they all have the ugly eonon logo across the bottom and throws it off
Xtrons unit, that’s the exact reason I didn’t go with an eonon unit, you could always paint over it though.
WHAT IS IT CALLED PART NUMBER THANKS
Running that M3 to the ground. Both steering boots long gone
How about the tendency of the steering wheel to move in every pothole. It started doing it at 250 000km
mines also does this... did you fix it?
@@riccardocervetti3203 I think this is a similar problem
Probably shock absorbers mate
4:00 yooooooo
No spare in the M3?
They don’t😳
Hoon Garage 😳😳
It looks like u have a torn boot
Why not put strongflex yellow in it ? 😳
That rack boot ..
Very sad yes...
If you live up north this takes 2 days
I can vouch for this statement
What is the full name of the car
Mads Boss1 bmw e46 m3
Ohh watch out someone's going to call you a terrible driver because you crossed double yellow.
Man, your steering rack is leaking and the covers are torn.
