    Just wanted to say how much I appreciate this video. I love your level of detail. I have the N20 in my 2016 X3 and I like to watch videos like these on how to replace stuff just in case in needs to be done in the future, plus I just learn more about my engine. Thanks again!

    Hey man thanks for these videos. I had an E89 with the N54 engine and thought it was a maintenance nightmare because I had no idea that normal people could replace things like ignition coils and fuel injectors. Now I am buying another E89 with the N52 engine and I feel confident I can work on it myself and save a ton of money. Really appreciate your work.

      @SimpleCarGuy  3 года назад +2

      Great to read comments like this! You can definitely do most of the work on the car as long as you have a little bit of patience and some space. Also, N52 should be super reliable since it doesn't have a turbo, have fun and good luck!

    I have a 2015 X1 with the n20 engine An independent shop replaced 1 injector, 4 spark plugs and 4 coils. The car
    runs good except it is rough at idle. It doesn't seem to be "hunting" with the rpms just steady but the car
    shakes more than normal at idle. The car smooths out when I accelerate even a little. I hope the injector was put in
    correctly.

    • @SimpleCarGuy

      Hard to tell of course, but does it have any codes? Did they code the injector to the car? If it's rough at idle, you should have some rich/lean codes, i would think.

    Great video. I have a few questions.
    I have a E84 2013 BMW X1 Xdrive 4cyls, where can I look up torque?
    1. Which Torque Wrench are you using?
    2. What's the torque to tighten the fuel injectors?
    3. What's the torque to tighten the fuel rail nuts?

  • @PLPOR
    @PLPOR Год назад +1

    Do you think tightening the hold down bracket is enough to properly seat the injectors, or is the special tool needed? I already have the injectors out, so don't require the special tool for removal at least. I'm trying to avoid purchasing the tool, because it's $85 for my early model of N55. Wanted your opinion on whether it's necessary to use the tool for installation. Thanks!

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 года назад

      What were the symptoms that you had to replace the eccentric shaft sensor? If you aren't reusing the injectors, then you can just pull them out, however if you plan on reusing they are easily damaged doing that. The manual says: "Set torque wrench to 5 Nm clockwise rotation. Together with special tool - crow foot wrench - this corresponds to a tensile force of max. 2000 N. The injector must be replaced if the torque wrench clicks when the injector is pulled out!"

    Me again, I commented on your N20 Engine swap a few weeks back because I was in the process of doing one as well. I'm finished and car runs good but I am getting lean codes and tried hunting down leaks to no avail, then stumbled across this video. I should just watch all of your videos so I'm prepared for anything you've already been through lol. My original also had EU5's and the new engine has EU6's so I guess that's why I am getting the lean codes. I saw another video of you replacing the HPFP. I was going to use my old one but I broke the connector putting it in. Come to find out the new HPFP's have a different connection so I had to McGuyver a makeshift adapter. Do you know if the HPFP's are also EU5 and EU6 specific?

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  3 года назад +1

      Hey hey! Yes, you’ll have to swap the injectors back to eu5 or you’ll keep getting those lean codes. I tried upgrading the DME but that didn’t work. As far as the HPFP, there is no difference from what I could tell. I’m running the newer one as well with a connected I adopted myself. I cut off the connector from the wiring loom I wasn’t using and spliced it into the existing connector. Works great.

    Good video however the injector puller tool is used for only one purpose, pulling the injectors. It should not be used for installation. The injectors are plastic and any downward pressure from the rail connection on the top will flex the injector and could damage it. Anyway, once the injector seals are compressed, drop them in the head, push them into the head with hand force, and then use the retaining plate and screws to seat them. Do this all within 3 mins and you will have no problem. The FCP Euro site shows a N20 video demonstrating this method.

    I have just installed new genuine BMW Injectors. I used a quality Injector-Tool, but I don't seem to know how to use it. I have followed your video aswelll the BMW-Technical bulletin. I have tried several hours but the outer screw seems to slip through the inner screw. (it is kinda hard to explain), but I cannot find a way to use the tool appropriately. I managed to press-in the Injectors with my hand and secure them with the metal clips. It does seem to work fine however.
    It runs fine though, I think:

    • @SimpleCarGuy
      @SimpleCarGuy  4 года назад

      Like you said, had to explain over text, but the top bolt should be screwing through the bottom bolt and onto the injector. You may need to screw in the bottom bolt at the same time to give you room. I suggest going a little bit at a time in each injector until it is flush with the injector. Then you undo the bottom bolt that will ‘push’ the tool with the injector into the engine. Use torque wrench to get the right specs. Not sure if I can explain it any better. Took me a few minutes to get it right, but if you move both of them at the same time, it should bind.

    Does injector cause oils burning problems ?

      Injector wouldn't cause oil burning issues, but if it's dumping too much fuel into the cylinder, your car will run rich and you may see smoke out of the exhaust.
