During my first ever oil change, i dropped the sump plug into a similar container you used here, and it just so happened to be the perfect size to plug the hole. Before I knew what was going on, all the oil was overflowing and pissing down my drive and out onto the street 🤣
Another great video. When you can, use the Mannol Ester additive in one of your cars. I use it along with Mannol's 5w 40 engine oil. It really improves the smoothness of the engine, especially from cold and overall the engine feels more refined. You wont compromise your engine oil as Mannol oil already has ester technology in it, so you would actually be improving an already great oil. I bought mine from Lubriage too.
On the oil level sensor unit, pop that top clip/cap cover off as well and clean inside that's the main area with brake and parts cleaner thats where the gunck hides and gives of the false reading. Thanks for the videos 😊
Solid and correct oil in combination with good oil filters, such as Mann Hummel, Hengst, Mahle, Knecht, Purflux, could be a very good combination even maybe the best bye / invested obtained
Hi mate I use mannol 5w-30 fully synthetic too but I don’t understand what the numbers at the top mean like 7908 does it matter what numbers are at the top?
I just bought a 03 760li and I was wonding if you have had the battery draining problem? And is the alternator belt squeaking normal for theses cars (my first ever bmw) also thank you so much for these videos you have saved my so much time and money
,Kаковы ваши впечатления от этого масла? как работает двигатель, заметно ли тише или грубее звук двигателя? может этого масла хватить до следующей замены на 15000км или 1 год?
Great minds think a like I did my steering rack upgrade kit on my 225d yesterday then had a nightmare today servicing my Mrs alfa mito the oil filter is right against the block had to old school pierce it with a screw driver and put a long thick Allen key into move it what a pain🥵
Hi george im going to do a oil change on my 2012 520d sport. Do u know the correct oil for that engine and how much oil it takes. ?? Many thanks. Love the videos 👍🏻
Those "tiger" gloves are great, ain't they "carl" they can be reused 3-4 times before you have to throw the "towel" in, I suppose your more used to the "lace up" variety seconds out , ding ding 😂😂😂
Sorry no like from me running your car with literary no fuel inside 26-mile range left that's really cheap. Your next car should be Opel Corsa 1.2 petrol

Interesting.. I’ve never really used an oil additive before so may give it a try👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters Have a look: www.mannol.de/products/additives/oil-additives/mannol-ester-additive

Cheers Paul!

Good stuff Ian!

Haven’t had a issue since doing this so seems to have done the job👍🏻
I love that you are using Mannol, best oil for the price, I use it for my 730d f01 and 545i e60.
Yep it’s top stuff!
Mannol energy combi ll 5w30 with Mann Hummel oil filter,Is very good combination!

Great videos George, many thanks for sharing.
No problem Richard, you’re welcome!
George always nicely done
Thanks mate!
Agree with the Mannol quality I have been using it for the past 2 years in both our Mini R50s no issues pricing is fantastic
🙌🏼
Hi mate I use mannol 5w-30 fully synthetic too but I don’t understand what the numbers at the top mean like 7908 does it matter what numbers are at the top?
I just got some mannol oil to try out looks good quality and is much better value.
I just bought a 03 760li and I was wonding if you have had the battery draining problem? And is the alternator belt squeaking normal for theses cars (my first ever bmw) also thank you so much for these videos you have saved my so much time and money
Yes the faulty amp was causing my battery drain.. I made a video on it
Hello George, I believe if your sum plug/ drain plug is a m18 the torque spec will be 35 Nm while if it a m12, it will be 25 Nm.

If you get your orders in quick for the Mannol oil and other parts from lubriage on ebay there is currently a 20% discount voucher running.
Yep I know, makes it crazy cheap👍🏻
@@GeorgeAusters I bought a drum around a year ago for £35 all in, I am only half way through it despite using it on both of our cars.
Madness... That’s how much the likes of ECP charge for 5L!
Super. Oil capacity 8.5 litr ?

Yeah Alfa’s and Fiat oil filters are a pain... BMWs are so much better 👌🏼
@@GeorgeAusters I definetly agree there mate👍
Good job
Nice video
Thanks
Perfect. Nice video thks
You’re welcome!
@@GeorgeAusters ^_^
Not a bad idea to fill the oil filter with new oil so there's no air locks until oil is sirculating.
The Engine sounds good for that miles and age . If I recall it correctly, you said it was 140k miles ?
145k yes... These are solid engines👍🏻
Great video. What do you think about bmw x5 e70 2009 3.0d and 0w30 oil is it ok or to thin ?
It’s fine if you live in a very cold climate but not needed in a warm climate
@@GeorgeAusters If the climate is very cold you let the engine run 24/7...
If it isn't that cold you use an electric heater...
Hi george im going to do a oil change on my 2012 520d sport. Do u know the correct oil for that engine and how much oil it takes. ?? Many thanks. Love the videos 👍🏻
Same oil as this which is linked in description.. 6L should be enough!
@@GeorgeAusters thanks george 👍🏻
High mileage bmw e92 320i do you prefer 5w-40 or 5w-30 ?
Answer?
From my point of view that oil is pretty bad, last time i used that oil i had a horrible lifter tick.
No chance
@@GeorgeAusters 😄😄😄
liqui moly for my old girl E46 and use shell for my Hyundai
Those "tiger" gloves are great, ain't they "carl" they can be reused 3-4 times before you have to throw the "towel" in, I suppose your more used to the "lace up" variety seconds out , ding ding 😂😂😂
😂
Do you recommend using a thicker oil like 5w40 for a 320d with higher mileage or should the 5w30 be enough?
5w30.. I've linked the oil in description
@@GeorgeAusters cheers
Anybody else waiting for the "PEACE!" ?
😂
That thing must cost a bit to go round the block in the UK.
Haha yep!
greats
👍💪
Cheers mate 🙌🏼

Haha relax, I got fuel after

Oh give it a rest.
Got a Volvo V40 d2 . I went and got mannol oil instead of Castrol. Will this affect my car .
No lol
