    Great advice! I am doing a lot this weekend: Throttle Acuators, Valve Covers, Evolve Vanos Caps, Fuel Injectors, idle control valve, fuel vent breather valve, spark plugs. I did the Rod Bearings @ 84K I am now at 88K. 2011 E93 Alpine/Fox Red Extended. I have limped 2 times and decided to get everything addressed since the original plan was Valve cover replacement. Your vid is so timely 👍🏾🙏🏾😊. I don’t do the work myself, but I have a BMW MasterTech Indy shop that I have been with for literally 15 years he worked on my E46 M3 Cabrio 😢(I miss Her 😢). Anyway, I will be riding with peace of mind and the Biggest Smile in Cali! Thanks again 🙏🏾😊✌🏾👍🏾. I really enjoy your channel I’ve been watching for over a year 😊

    I tell anyone who’s looking at buying one to have at least $10k set aside for all of these things. Could be more, could be less, but if you don’t have it set aside you are setting yourself up for failure. Good video

    I recently imported a RHD E92 from Japan so it came with zero maintenance history. Your spreadsheet has been amazing and my pile of parts ready for install just keeps getting bigger. But it really feels like a good $5k will do /every/ maintenance item and you cannot beat the value of the platform.

    You need to change the fuel pump with the integrated filter as well. Injectors fail usually because the fuel filter that is integrated into the fuel pump is dirty and then no longer works. Or a workaround is get the NRW fuel filter kit.

    I adored mine but if you look at one of these and think 30k is expensive for a 10 year old car. trust me wait until you see the repair bills these rack up. My first 6 months of ownership the clutch blew up within 2k miles. 3k miles after I had the rod bearings and engine mounts replaced. 5k miles after that the passenger cat went bad. All of which cost me about 12000 dollars. This is on a vehicle i spent almost 30k on with only 70k miles. Again, loved the car but if i could go back in time id have bought a corvette and saved 10k.

    • @ThicWhips
      @ThicWhips  Месяц назад

      Evolve caps have a zero percent failure rate. While I understand why you would think the mporiums would be better, you’d actually need a failure to occur for these caps to be considered “worse”

    Hey honest question for you. Ive been in the market for a minute for a E92. I would love to get your thoughts on the below
    - Do you think its better to get a cheaper 100k mile ish E92 for $20k - $25K range and put 10k in maintenance into it right off the bat or buy a lower mileage one 50k miles for $35 - $40K and just drive it.

    I just picked one up a month ago
    Did a PPI and came back clear aside from front rotors...
    Took it to my mechanic after purchase, had perished bump stops, leaky valve cover... got it PPI at a reputable mechanic supposedly but got a refund!
    Either way, getting valve cover gasket replaced and doing the Mporium Vanos covers whilst they're in there. I'll look at DIYing a NRW cover in future!
    ACL Rod bearings were done in February with photos and receipts, throttle actuators supposedly were fine when checked. Motor mounts were done in February too
