me and my dad rebuilt alot of motors on our back porch bsck when i was in highschool, one thing we never do tho is resurface the block like this, too much work and time consuming just for the block to blow again after couple years.
@@GOLTURBO555 you betcha, i know sometimes honing works if they get real precise with the measurements, we still dont risk doing it, rather spend couple hundreds to a thousand get a precise bore and resurfacing on block and heads, reputation is better than couple hundreds extra, never seen someone sand paper the heads and block before 😅
@@ratataran yeah i know it is, but i know you have to be real precise with it especially with the measurements, unless youre just sanding it just to clean it and not to resurface the block, i just dont trust myself getting the right measurements to resurface a block using sand paper, if im gonna put the time and money to rebuild a motor i might as well throw in couple of hundreds for resurfacing so i have a peace of mind that it wont blow in couple months, but if it works for you then props to you man. 👍
Hi ! First timer here. I am usually picky about videos of restauration and I judge them harshly let me tell you guys something , you guys are artists I looked every detail you guys went and Lord everything was just perfect I really am glad that I found people like you that know what they are doing. Greetings from Republic of Kosovo and keep up the good work.
The most brutal way of dismantling and reassembling any engine, specifically a german motor. Knocking on bolts, and other parts, no regards as if any clearance can get damaged.
Nice work. I wish there was hard dedicated guys like that in my town. Seems like im the only one here in my town that seems to put that kinda effort on rebuilds. Im rebuilding a 2003 Nissan Frontier 3.3L Engine right now and it would be fun to have dedicated guys around to have more fun doing the job. Keep making great videos and keep on bring cars back to life.
And and and, you can have fun, and then, and then, you can have fun again, yeah, and and, then your having fun, yeah, and and, then, and and then you can have fun hee hee, and and then you have fun again hee hee.
@Zippo People who strip and rebuild engines with any power tool are just fkn lazy, you cannot tell if something is undoing, or shearing, gash as fk, mechanic for 45 years here not just since you tube was invented, carry on LOL
@Zippo No shit Sherlock the fact you can "run stuff up with them" .... I note how you jump on the "dont use them to crack bolts"....bit....after I gave you the clue LOL
not even check rod clearances ,decking the block by hand,machine the cylinder walls without knowing how is the outcome. also did you use the same crankshaft?
The beauty of having a shop. Try that on the side street and having to worry about something getting stolen by the next day or a neighbor ratting you out to the city. When your out there just minding your business. Sheesh!
No measurements, no wear control, no precision machining and absolutely random block resurfacing. Engine is all about precision and tolerances of 1/100 of a mm. I won't trust you even a tire repair, sorry.
Are you going to pay for them to get the equipment to do those measurements? Just some hobbiests rebuilding their own personal engines. You work with what you got.
@@devonsimpson8069 the equipment needed (aka micrometer, bore gauge and plastigauge) is not expensive. 200€ tops. getting the block honed and surfaced, crankshaft polished and trued will set you back another 250-400€. considering that in the worst case not taking care of any of this can result result in the engine being dead on start it's easy costs to justify. If I can do all this for a tiny m43 engine in my home shop, these guys can do it for a much more expensive and powerful block.
Im confused - 12:08 Didn’t they replace that blown engine block with a brand new one? Or did they re-use the one with the holes in it from what looks like a blown rod?…
@@mro4ts457 they definitely used the one with holes, they wanted to make sure all the oil came out before the first start, that's how you know you got a good BMW engine
@@1mawesomel1kethat 😂Tell me about it lol My fuckin differential is making a whining noise now after I just fixed the brakes and vanos timing. If it aint broke, it’s not a BMW🤣
I was gonna just have this video playing in the background while I worked, but it was only about 5 minutes before it had my undivided attention. A great rebuild of a thrashed engine, beautiful work!
After working with some guys from India I can tell you with enough patience and time almost ANYTHING can be rebuilt even using old used parts even if those parts are broken. Not sure if I would reuse S54 bearing shells but if they are not worn and have good clearance have at it! Just did a light rebuild on an s54 and used lots of used parts but new gaskets.
should not use such a hard material on insertion of the pistons. even the slightest improperly vectored shock could permanently deform the piston or worse yet cause disassembly in the rotating assy below the piston or worse yet unseat one of the rings. Otherwise decent DIY rebuild job. Would also recommend a machine shop handle honing / boring and maybe crank balancing.
The work you do in house is amazing. All these USA videos shipping things here and there to get done, but you boys just get stuck in an get it done in house, and done really well. I'm a fully skilled engineer and that whole process looks very daunting to me. Hats off to you.
You dont know what you're talking about.If they were any good they wouldn't have a recall of all 2001 to 2003 for new rod bearings.2004 cars had the up dated bearings and mine spun a bearing and scratched the crank.Matter of fact the s65 in the e92m3 the s85 in the m5 and m6 are eating their rod bearing too.When rod bearings are wear items the engines are garbage.
Great job! One comment, never use 2 pins with the timing bridge. One at a time. If you need to adjust a cam you'll be off on the other side or bend a pin.
I am amazed that you knew how to take the engine out and then take it completely apart. But even more impressed that you knew how to reassemble every piece and get it back in the car!!!! How many hours for the whole procedure?
I have to say lads I take my hat to you 👌 watching how you strip down that engine and take it out of the car is Amazing 😱I mean how do you know how to put it back together again 😜 I mean what parts go on first and we're are the bolt's...god bless you lads you do a great job 👍👍👍
At first I thought, "well at least the block doesn't look beat." But then I saw the tool cart through the other side and said "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" LMAO!
Its like watching car simulation game in reality. So satisfying and clean. Every detail is so satisfying. Good job and very well done. Makes me subscribe this channel. 👍

are you blind?
The amount of work that went into this and the video editing is just amazing. Thank you
He's a certified BMW mechanic,not a technician.He knows what he's doing.
@@realisrealite5554 Just because you own snap-on tools doesn't make you a mechanic. I guarantee this guy isn't certified in anything.
Just a huge and patient job for the mechanic. And he did it perfectly!!! BMW has a very capricious engine.
Intrigued from start to end. The amount of detail and skill to pull this off. Well done!
I liked your video, no bullshit, no commentary, no ads just pure business.

Like using impact on knock sensors/block? Or reusing head bolts? 😳

Fantastic skills, you make it all look extremely easy. E46’s are great machines.
Thank you for not using old gaskets. I really appreciate it.
Fantastic!
Kudos to you gentlemen, from accident damage to blown engines, there's nothing on a car that you cannot fix!!
👌👌👌
Fire damage ☹️

not even check rod clearances ,decking the block by hand,machine the cylinder walls without knowing how is the outcome.
also did you use the same crankshaft?
but they painted the block and head with silver! This alone added not less than 100hps!
@@aakolov at least 100 😀
Didn't measure rod bolt stretch either.
He use the same part or he change new parts for this engine and block ?
Also used pistons from one engine into a new block with only honing and no measuring

A rebuilt engine done right is a thing of beauty lads. Blessings from Shropshire.
That was a excellent rebuild loved it from start to finish keep up the good work 💯💯💯💪🏾
Watched the whole video it was truly something. Putting it all back together is my favorite part.
Pleasure to watch. The younger mechanic is a master 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
just brilliant....love the tools, no chat, excellent work. big respect from Mauritius
You guys made it look simple.🙂 But this know it wasn't and to film it at the same time. Outstanding work👏🏾👏🏾
Wow, when you say blown, you're really not kidding are you. That thing had big enough holes to sink the Titanic.
Incredible effort guys. Good camerawork, editing and very detailed
I can honestly say, out of all the things in life I wish I could do, it would be that right there! Great work!
from start to finish in one video. love it!
This is Awesome. Thank you

Great work guys! How the hell do you remember where it all goes 🤯🤯🤯

What a wonderful workmanship. Great work 👌🏾
Incredible zee congratulations on building a engine which was completely knacker BMW will be getting in touch shortly offering you a job
One of the best engine rebuild videos I have ever seen on youtube. You sir are a master craftsman. Stumbled upon this video and am glad I did.
wow you did not see many videos huh?

so relaxing to watch when I'm supposed to be working at work lol
Very professional, restore the car only by itself
Right thing to do rebuild the engine. You guys will get massive returns
The e46 m3 is just a beautiful machine! It really is Art on 4 wheels!
that is called love and passion for what you do.

How the heck some people can destroy an engine is beyond belief. Thanks for the video; a great job on one of the best engines BMW produced. 🙂
