      Robert Webb. Most ladies appreciate a good looking ,powerful vehicle that has an assertive snarl.When chauffeured by their partner,they signal to the world they have made it and should be respected.A decent set of wheels is not a negative for a suitor.

      speaking of valve cover gasket replacement, I changed my spark plugs and ignition coils all 6 of them and when they took them out they had alot of oil, but only later found out that it was cause I had a valve cover leak. Do you think I wasted money in replacing them ? i just replaced my valve cover / gasket. But im pretty sure if I take my spark plugs out and ignition coils theres gona be alot of oil residue :( do you think wiping them off would be good? or should I just replace the sparkplugs / ignition coils again

    @nelq8186 6 лет назад +1

    So I just got my 2011 328i few weeks ago. My first BMW. About 55k on it. Thinking of changing spark plugs and coils now. Or should I wait a little bit longer. Car runs well. No errors, dealer changed the oil before I took it. Everything else seems stock.

    • @distrohouse1
      @distrohouse1 6 лет назад +1

      Marionel Salazar Plugs are actually rated to 100k on that model (I have the same). If you’re doing ok with no codes, wait it out till at least 80k and then consider changing it with the coils (since you’re there). Otherwise just enjoy and wait to see if PCB recall includes the valve cover.

    • @nelq8186
      @nelq8186 6 лет назад +1

      J. Nakayama thanks man! Yeah so far everything is running well! So I’ll wait a little more. Might just change the filters and some cosmetic stuff for now.

      Jose Rea Do you have a “check engine” light on? If so maybe get a code reading to see what’s up?

    • @BMWFanatic
      @BMWFanatic  6 лет назад +1

      Yeah I would be seeing what all codes you have and then further diagnose the issues with a proper BMW spec scan tool

    • @joserea4500
      @joserea4500 6 лет назад

      Yes I check with a scanner and it shows misfires on cylinder 4

    • @joserea4500
      @joserea4500 6 лет назад

      Thank you guys for a reply!

    • @martynh5410
      @martynh5410 6 лет назад +3

      Jose Rea I would swap the coil and plug from cylinder 4 with number 1 and see if the fault follows. 1 is the front cylinder looking from the front of the car and 6 is the one furthest from the front. You also might have a different issue maybe the electrical connection to the coil.

    • @TheMregee
      @TheMregee 6 лет назад +1

      Efrain Rodriguez first step is to get a quality scan tool. When you are shopping for a scan tool make sure it obviously can read your BMW. I would go ahead and invest in one that can clear all fault codes including airbags DTC and the like. I have a C reader brand and love mine.

    Warranty money is worthless...for tuners. Any tune will void warranty anyway.

    • @corazon335xi
      @corazon335xi 6 лет назад

      Not true. Mine is tuned and my warranty has replaced oil pan gasket, transfer case, and more, and I have 25,000 miles left on it.
      It’s an ‘07 335xi

    • @matreyia
      @matreyia 6 лет назад +1

      So long as the repair has nothing to do with the tune. We speak of repairs needed due to direct relation to the tune.

    • @BMWFanatic
      @BMWFanatic  6 лет назад +1

      Some dealers don’t care about a tune with warranty work, while others will void it in a second. It’s a guessing game for sure. Always best to take off the tune prior to going in to be safe.
