Hi, love your videos, I only need to changer injector number 6. Would you recommend using the tool to remove just 1 injector? Or would it effect the load distribution over the 2 injector banks?
my car was missfiring on cilinder #5. injector#5 was very loose actually I picked up with hand after removing the braket and the seal was gone(looked on the cylinder chamber and did not find anything) and the decoupling element was not attached to the injector. and I am not sure if the decoupling element is stuck in the block or someone never insatlled it back? anyways when pocking the intectors all of them seemed to have some slight "play" is that normal??? I have the n55 the but mine uses the other bracket. and the other tool. thank you
Great video on N55 engine like always! Do you think not use the correct injector tool can damage injector ? Do you know what type of damage that can be ?
Man! This is definitely the video I was looking for, as I have the same exact plate covering the injectors/spark plug wells.. apparently I ordered all the wrong injectors and tools 🤦♂️😂
Hey what up buddy I just replaced my injector 1,3 and I decided to remove 2,4 to clean carbon build up on tips did not replace coupling or seal can that give me a no start ?
@SimpleCarGuy appreciate the answer. Will try to find a solution besides the additional 100$ tool. Already had to buy tool to remove injectors. Pricey job lol
You can possible get away with just using the old ones, but BMW recommends getting new ones when replacing injectors. If it's a bit worn or damaged in some way or corroded etc. it may cause compression leak (lower compression on that cylinder).
@9:37 boss you are working harder needlessly. That tool has a spring loaded detent on it. Depress that, and it releases the head that screws to the injector from the bracket, allowing you to install the bracket to the engine without a fuss. Then simply just pop the head back onto the bracket, and screw it onto the injector.
@@SimpleCarGuy Not only that, but when you begin to screw it onto the injector, the detent will stay depressed until you just bottom out on the injector. It will then discharge. This is your cue to stop screwing as you have reached max threads.
My injector's bottomed out with brand new seals. I didn't get 2 Newton meters Until they were bottomed out On the tool. I am so sick of The ridiculous engineering of BMW. terrible design
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Just finding out I need this early production injector tool.
Only use that crows foot at a 90° angle otherwise you are adding/subtracting length to the tq wrench over/under tightening.

The injector tool install to the block was overkill. You can just use the middle holder it works just fine

Thanks for the video. I actually subscribed on the injector video as I was replacing it on my N20 engine!
Thanks for the sub!
@@SimpleCarGuy where did you find the pipe. Just Home Depot?
It was at ace hardware, but almost any hardware store will have it
Great video on N55 engine like always!

dude so did I!!!!
I love the cheap alternatives to installing those seals! Good job!
I've done it on 2 cars now and works just as well as the expensive tool. Thanks for watching!

Do i need that installing tool?? I can use the bracket to push it in right?
Late but is the injector seal compressor tool or act of compressing necessary if buying brand new EU5 bosch injectors?
You still need to compress the seal or else you risk damaging it while inserting and having a leak.
@SimpleCarGuy appreciate the answer. Will try to find a solution besides the additional 100$ tool. Already had to buy tool to remove injectors. Pricey job lol
Can you please put the link for the injectors store or where to buy them (only if they are OEM) ? I got so confused searching for them.
Thank you
I have two bad injectors on my n55 I plan on just replacing the two from a parts car would I need to code them in or just plug and play ?
You need to code them. The car will work without coding, but you will most likely get lean or rich codes, use more fuel or run roughly without it.
@@SimpleCarGuy alright thank you by any chance do you know if I can swap out eu5 injectors for eu6?
@@kevthecompass6217 if you swap to a different index, you need to swap all 6.
Well done
Do you only have to torque the middle bolt (at the end) to 13nm. The rest you just snug.
What happens if you don't replace the decoupling element ?
You can possible get away with just using the old ones, but BMW recommends getting new ones when replacing injectors. If it's a bit worn or damaged in some way or corroded etc. it may cause compression leak (lower compression on that cylinder).
If I replace only 2 injectors do i have to pull out and replace the seals for all of the other injectors? On a 2013 535i
Nope, just the ones you replaced!
Nice video bro. Been following all of your build. Were the injectors on this n55 eu5 or eu6 ??
Thanks! These were EU5 if I remember correctly.
@@SimpleCarGuy thanks bro I appreciate that. That makeshift seal compressor you made worked fine? Still no leaks?
@@SimpleCarGuy thank you so much

Thanks for the tip! It was getting stuck for me so I had to do it the hard way, but you're right.

Hi from where you bought the tube
Ace hardware
👍👍👍
Anyone know what injectors fit my car? Engine built 11/04/07

BMW’s car’s don’t look for owners, they look for victims. They are so problematic and over engineered
BMWs teach you problem solving and mechanical skills!
