I've been watching a shit load of auto repair you tube videos for long long time now, for years and years! I'm in Charleston SC and been working on all sorts of cars, trucks, motorcycles at home and been a home mechanic for about 15 or 20 years now, as well. Got a lot of tools built up now. Got a bunch of Haynes manuals, lots of fsm's, all data diy subscriptions, I've worked at few shops, it's just years and years of workin on cars. Dude, I've seen a lot of u tube vids! So, with that said, I wanted to tell you that you have done, and are doing, some great videos! Some of the best that I've watched prior to fixing some of the vehicles that come my way. Yours are def very, very good. And, I'm very impressed with your effort and would love it if you would keep up that good work! I know it's a bitch to film while you're trying to get shit done but you continue to do it! And you do very, very well at it! If I were you(and your helper guy), I wouldn't pay not ONE little, single, tiny bit of attention to any thumbs down, any negative bull shit or any shit talkin comments! I'd keep on keepin on my friend! Thanks for all your extra effort to take videos of what you do! To do that is kind, it's commendable and it's a BIG ass help to a lot of people! So with that said, here's a BIG GIANT FUCKING THUMBS UP, from me!! Thank you! And thanks to your helper(s) as well!!!
I just bought a 2007 328xi, and I got burned for a new thermostat and water pump within the first week. Needless to say, I'm looking to do more things myself that I'm capable of doing. Thank you for your videos.... you guys rock.
FYI: As I was following your video and repeating the process with my car I noticed that the part your had difficulty removing with the torx T40 at 2:10 does not has to be removed completely, just remove the torx screw and remove the top black plate with a slotted screwdriver,, very very easy. The back of the bracket can remain mounted in the trunk as you remove the side panel without any effort. At least that was the case with my 2006 330i. Again thanks for the excellent video!!!
Don't forget to replace the bump stock, dust cover, upper and lower shock mounts. Not absolutely necessary, but after having done this on my own car, I would recommend it.
Hi can you tell me what after market parts you bought? i have a 328xi and going to have someone put them on because the foreign car repair place is saying at least 1K...
Hello! Oh man! That was 3 years ago. I can't definitively say that I remember...but O'Reilly's is what keeps coming to mind. I got the cheapest ones. They've been working great since.
I know I need to do shocks on my car but there's a weird bell like dinging when I go over bumps. Kinda sounds like the back...used to hear it every now and then but not enough to really bother or notice but now that my shocks are bad its every bump there's a dinner bell ding ...any ideas?......update.....I'm missing 2 bolts that go into ...control arm? ....its LOOSE JIGGILING AROUND
I’m having problems with the new shock absorber it doesn’t spring enough so I can’t get a screw in the top and bottom to lock it in place only on one end, any ideas?
It should, seems like it might be the wrong one or the dust cover isn’t fully seated on the tops half of the shock. Maybe you have it upside down, not sure. Good luck!
odd, that car has lci tail lights but pre lci hood and kidneys. as for stagg shocks, you guys trust them? have you not rear horror stories online about them?
Yes I did fix it! My issue with my set was the washer/nut at the top wouldn’t screw on all the way and kept shooting through. Replaced with new one and it holds just fine now
yes, I need mine done right now and they told me at LEAST 1K... :( i may someone who can do it that works on cars and not with a company. WHat did you end up doing?

I like how simple they show it is. And how almost is everything home based fix, and not service. I am gonna definitely try it out myself.
You have no idea of how helpful this video was for me. Very precise and clear. Keep your good work guys!!!!!!!

Brilliant, you've helped me make up my mind, it's off to the garage.
🤔
You saved me a trip to a mechanic thanks bros
Save me £100. Appreciate this video bro
omg this is not complicated i can do this on my own! thanks a lot guys
Nice sweatshirt way to represent the best !
MAKE SURE YOU CHECK THE SHOCK MOUNTS! These can rust out and need replacing! (Lower shock mounts)
Great video, thank you
Do you have to tighten the bottom bolt after the car is lowered (full weight on the strut)?
Thanks helped me alot Love from Toronto Big it up

Thanks for doing the video guys, good job
Thanks so much I’m about to do it myself
Dude!!! You are awesome! Keep up the good work! I'm hopeful you're in USA. However, your accent suggest you're somewhere in Europe.
What company did you get the strut from????
Please i want the front xdrive shock absorber replacement
Dude, thank you so very much. I fckn love you man. You just saved me AT LEAST $200 in labor.
Hi can you tell me what after market parts you bought? i have a 328xi and going to have someone put them on because the foreign car repair place is saying at least 1K...
Hello!
Oh man! That was 3 years ago. I can't definitively say that I remember...but O'Reilly's is what keeps coming to mind. I got the cheapest ones. They've been working great since.
Cool thank you greatly for replying. I will have them take a look Wednesday!!
No doubt!...and good luck.

Why isn't there a lower mount? My e92 has lower and upper mounts is this not the case with this e90 model?
After 2 years I just learned how to put my back seats down in this video after searching up and down the internet. I guess I'll take that as a win..
Same part number for xi and I models ?
thanks good video it working for me
nice video
Thanks! Good video!
Sweet thanks guys just bought the wife a e90 with blown out rear struts now I can fix it without fucking shit up 🤘🤘🤘🤘
wrong!!! bolts should be tightened on raised wheels
Excellent! thanks guys helped a lot!
I’m having problems with the new shock absorber it doesn’t spring enough so I can’t get a screw in the top and bottom to lock it in place only on one end, any ideas?
It should, seems like it might be the wrong one or the dust cover isn’t fully seated on the tops half of the shock. Maybe you have it upside down, not sure. Good luck!
hey, what rims are those. thanks
Where can I buy those same shocks and struts?
Fcp
odd, that car has lci tail lights but pre lci hood and kidneys. as for stagg shocks, you guys trust them? have you not rear horror stories online about them?
M Badges on a non-M 3-Series... seems legit! LMAO
I'm working on a friend's car that does the same shit
illegal
Lol I was thinking the same thing. Your left side exhaust is showing!
thank you
Anyone here who’s has a 07 328xi have any cool upgrades ideas for this car ?
Where do I buy those strut bmw too expensive
FCP
200.000 miles on the clock!!! I don't see any other explanation!!
Hey! After installing my new Bilstein B4 the top of the strut keeps sticking out too far and idk why. Help please???
Julian Rinehard did you fix it
Same problem with Bilstein shock how did you fix
Yes I did fix it! My issue with my set was the washer/nut at the top wouldn’t screw on all the way and kept shooting through. Replaced with new one and it holds just fine now
That’s not a strut that’s a rear shock.
A garage wanted to charge me $1800 for this....
Randy yeah one tried charging me $300! for a serpentine belt, Did it for $40 myself.
@@metsgaming293 bro the serpentine belt on the 335i is a fucking bitch and a half i can understand 200 bucks for that.

yes, I need mine done right now and they told me at LEAST 1K... :( i may someone who can do it that works on cars and not with a company. WHat did you end up doing?
