My favourite part. ‘Hope it doesn’t short’ - not sure about pressure spraying the engine. Thanks for sharing though
Very true - “a nicer place to work in” - great idea for summer 👍🏼
That engine bays looking mint George, nice one.
Cheers Graham, it’s a nice feeling knowing you’re all clean under the hood!
@@GeorgeAusters All ways George I know the feeling well :)
Could have unclipped the wiring loom from the big black plastic cover and removed two more bolts and that whole piece comes out. Give you way better access to motor and is easy to clean both sides.
A nice way to help some wiring rot away under the hood ;)
Looks like new 👏🏻
Thanks for this.
Welcome mate
Clean as a whistle
As always bro!
I was afraid to use a pressure cleaner on the engine bay,toothbrush for hours 🤤
Hahaha poor devil. You’re fine with it mate as long as you do it how I did in this video👍🏻
I've been planning on doing this, I also have an n52. Should I be concerned about the alternator? I also see u spraying the top left where the electronics are.... I want to clean it so I can find out where my leak is and have a clean bay to work with. I have a 330i 2006. Nervous I might wet something I shouldn't... There's also a panel near the intake boots near the purge valve... Would I be fine?
Did you watch the video? I covered up the alternator man👍🏻
Good work! 👍
Cheers Paul
Looks like you lost a screw from the cabin air filter box George, drivers side.
Lemme know if you need a replacement, I've got a bucket full of screws and nuts left over from servicing my M6.
Yeah it was already missing when I bought the car mate. I think I should have one somewhere myself!
You actuall hosed down your bay with the brainbox exposed?? you are brave
Brainbox exposed? The ECU is well sealed away
@@GeorgeAusters man, I used to detail and wash my engine till it was sparkling new. Then one day water got into the ECU. All sealed. Since then, I don't mess around that engine bay with water. Lol
What is that little strip right below the cabin air filter housing ?
The bracket that holds the cables?
@@GeorgeAusters I’m so confused bc I saw that and my car doesn’t have that, is it important? My car runs fine lmaooo
Helped me see what’s lurking below the cabin air filter box. The plastics have been poorly treated by mechanics on servicing. The lower air filter box support is shot and need replacement. Another reason I watch your videos because I can’t keep spending good money for shoddy work. Ever put the prices up so you have good profit margins or customers like me get sick of finding damage because your rushing to make a profit.
Another reason why I wouldn't take my car to a shop for work - they don't give a crap about your car!
Didn’t tighten my oil filter right and now my engine bay is covered in oil and it’s dripping out of the headlights :’)
Hahaha you're joking!
What pressure washer do you use?
It's an RAC pressure washer but different hose and lance
I had oil leaks in same area did u figure out were it was leaking from? My shop is trying to say it's my valv cover gasket 2k replacement omg
i was quoted 1600 for brand new vc and gaskets at my reliable euro mechanic shop, if i were you id check elsewhere for a better quote.
👍🏼
What's next the 330d 😂
You know it bro!
