- Hey guys we're back with this Defender 90! In this series we're showing you how we swap a 2.4 TDCI for a BMW X5 Engine!
In today's episode we finally get this engine running!! Leon stayed late to get this vehicle to where it needs to be and we encounter yet more problems....

Thanks for watching!
What an amazing build, being the owner of this fantastic vehicle and seeing all the hard professional work which Sam and his team have put in, cannot recommend highly enough, i am sure i will be back for some more upgrades. Thanks guys :). Puts a smile on my face every time i get in and start her up :)
Thank you for the feedback Michael! 💛
@@juicemotors Hi man, hope you are well🌹
I have a 1997 defender, can i fit a new range rover (for example evoque) on it?
Is it possible?
Thanks🙏🏻
WOAH!!!! Lovvve how still the engine idles and sounds a little more rounded with that crackle at high revs! I got such a buzz watching this! Mega result, thanks guys! :)
A little surprised by the sound the BMW lump, but really happy how the team persevered with the build. Probably the best engine work you have done on the channel. Next up should be a BMW twin scroll six pot petrol conversion.
Thanks Elton!
Gareth re-mapped my TD5 15p 110 a year ago and it still makes me smile every time I drive it, Yeehah! 👍😆
You did a hell of a job to get this beast running! Very well done guys. Love basically all you did in this conversion except the exhaust system. Like you said it’s just to loud and making the vehicle scream like a crazy race car. Sound is not only volume. I would connect a conversion of a Defender like this with a deep growling, more calm sound underlining it’s power and not this screaming sound which disqualify the car to use it as a daily driver in my opinion. 😎👍
One of the cleanest swap ever. So close to a assembly line product.
So the question is how much would a BMW engine conversion cost from yourselves drive in drive out? 🤔
Any updates ?
@@dazzaw6907
No not yet I’ve asked a couple of times 🤔
@@teameliteuk2023 Ha Ha Ha
Sam, can you give us a rough idea of the conversion cost.
Following this as well.
Do it (classic with the td6 (m57) engine). This is awesome, loved that engine in the L322- awesome job guys
LOF customer service sets the benchmark. I’m saving for their brake kit. 👍
Wow is all I can say Sam, Well done for pulling that off, I want that engine in my defender! 👍
Wow, that was a major project with a fabulously great result. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work. Looking foward to more great projects on this channel.
Excellent work! Would have liked to see more of the problem diagnosis and fixing. I find learning is entertaining. Cheers.
Watch episode 3 here where we diagnose it’s issues

RRC conversion with an auto box would definitely be of interest..!!
Perseverance!
Nice work Sam, Leon, and crew! And those rear steps are simple, but really awesome. One of the coolest low-key things I’ve seen you guys fit on one of these.
Yeah do a Rangie Classic!!! Awesome work guys.
Since coming across this build, I’ve subscribed and been hooked
Back tracked through all the videos just about.
What I build that is and sounds awesome 👍
Keep up the good work, must be great doing a job that you love
Awesome, as you say, perfect engine for a swap…LS swap and you’ve got a brave pill to swallow when it comes to fuel consumption .
Thanks for documenting it.
Suspect the best way around getting the right engine would be to buy a complete donor car in the first place….that way it’d allow you to test the engine whilst in running gear…may save some labour efforts later on.
a new model is born.... the Landrover widow maker? Fantastic job!
Sweet build- well worth the headaches! My ‘85 Ninety V8 SW will be pushing out 300 BHP when it’s done. Looking forward to it!
Love it .. wasnt happy with my 530D but the map you can do on these is crazy 😜 also check the lugs on the vacuum pump on end of cam .. mine broke the lugs and I had no brakes ..at speed
Please do the M57 into a Disco 3, so many broken TDV6 one's, plus you haven't done any dico stuff 😃
Brilliant, really enjoyed watching this build unfold.....sounds truly amazing, what a 90!! Cheers.
This thing must be a hell of fun to drive. The dream car list is renewed!
Brilliant and great hard work! Nice to see the shout out to Mahker as well
Credit where it’s due! They saved the day
Wow! Mic drop. Keep it up Sam and Leon, smashing it lads ❤️
Loved how that turned out with the sounds and everything! Yes, do the Range Rover Classic conversion.
Sam, I think this be one of my favourite conversions from Juice! Love it and WANT WANT WANT it on my 110!! ❤️❤️💥💥
Absolutely superb build. Great work on getting it all sorted.
At last a landrover with go! Sounds brilliant. Great build.
Awesome work guys! Good to see the brakes working well 💪
So satisfying to see the final result. Incredible work!
Perseverance paid off, great conversion one of the best engines for the Defender, any torque figuars as seems to pull well in all gears just wonder how it goes in low range in off road situations.
I'd love to do this conversion to my 90 puma but the wiring scares me ! Well done on a fantastic result
Just catching up on these videos and you should definitely do a RRC auto with this engine. Keep it quiet and refined though!
Good job lads! Really enjoyed watching this build. What an epic outcome! Tell you what I’d like to see though, instead of the m57 I’d like to see you shoe horn an m67 in one. 3.9 V8 would be a whole lot of fun 🤯
Getting hold of the engine would be the hardest part, they’re awesome engines though
Love following the updates on this build. Would be a dream to own I'm sure
Well done I have every confidence in you getting it done it’s a great result
Super glad we could help you buddy next time we will sort you out a proper kit 👌
Couldn’t have done it without you guys! 💪🏻✌🏻
@@juicemotors it’s all about Looking after our southern Friends
Man that sound brilliant don’t think Iv ever disliked anything u chaps have done 🔥🔥🔥
I'm not sure if you're aware but in South Africa the Defender was available with a 2.8 litre petrol BMW engine straight from the factory in the late 1990s. You can identify them by a "2.8i" marking where you would otherwise see "TDi" or "V8". I've not driven one but apparently they are great and of course very rare now.
Great build. Cant wait for the RR classic convertion.
That engine sounds a lot better than those tyres will! Great build 😍
Fantastic conversion!!! Definitely outshines my Lada, Fiat twin cam running on LPG
Well done for getting all those little problems sorted and it’s sounds fabulous. Maybe drop the 335d into a RR Classic with the autobox and paddle shifters?
That engine bay is clean asf, almost factory grade 😅🤣
Dimpling and grooving are not for cooling , it's for giving the gases from the pads braking somewhere to go so that the pads stay in contact with the discs.
Vented discs are for cooling as it increases the surface area of the discs.
It would've been so awesome if Landrover had installed these engines when BMW owned them.
OMG - Amazing! Love the whole build. Bring another one on :)
每一集我看的好認真！雖然台灣defender 少、但這款車太喜歡了！
I've enjoyed every moment of this clip Sam. You guys have did a fantastic job- j enjoyed the trouble shooting most; having watched Project M57, I knew the fuel pump would be possible cause of the cranking problem.
You however didn't specify the BMW engine you mounted- I'm assuming that it's the DM57 married to the 6speed LT gearbox right? I'm about to do the same with my 300TDI. Right after I find a buyer for my kidney 😁😁
Range rover classic is a must. Bring it up to date!! Modern whip!!!
great Swap...I saw another video of the same engine swapped on Discovery 3 ,2.7 diesel
How do the 6 speed boxes hold up to extra power 5 speeds dont last with a tuned td5 so dread to think how the bmw would kill them
That’s an awesome engine in a defender
Nice work guys 👍
Very good, but how about a central mounted Tesla drive unit?
That's the only future in Defender engine swaps long-term IMO.
I wonder how many people are going to tell you you've put the front discs on the wrong sides 😂 the vents are going the right way!
i know you guys had problems but wow what a job love the sound of it thats pretty special great job guys👍👍
Great channel guys, love the M57 conversion.
Ooooh , that sound. Nice job guys
Next project - classic Range Rover with Cummins and auto box 😍😍😍😍 looking at BMW 3.0d swapping a P38 now that I’ve seen this
Guys, it was a tough project, all three of you are great! I am glad that you finished it and everything worked out!
What is the name of the guy with the glasses? - Great kid!
I hope you start taking apart Classic Range soon!
I fancy this conversion in my D3 one day.
You live in such a nice part of the world. It's picture perfect.
Great conversion, any thoughts of creating a plug and play kit to sell?
Yes yes yes to the RRC! M57 auto is the plan for my 2 door rangie
one of your reverse lights are out... great job sounds amazing!!!!
The other ones a Fog light 😎
Well done for keeping your cool. Id have been raging!
😍😍😍😍 that thing sounds absolutely incredible!
Done an M57 conversion to an E36 318TDS compact and the wiring was a pain in the backside. But i have since read that the LR boys have sorted that issue out with bespoke stand alonw looms etc. Thinking of doing thw conversion again, to a MK5 Cortina estate
omg love love love this landie i need this beast in my life ... fantastic build guys i just need the lottery win now and then ill be seeing you
Cracking build
That range rover classic i would sort chassis and floor pans and axels leave the body as patena
Fit the 3.0d with auto box wiseman do all the parts from the x5
Hi Sam great videos of this conversion , im thinking of do this myself ! could you give me an idea of hours labour this took if you takeaway the problems that wasn't your fault
Would absolutely love to see you guys do your “version” of a Bowler EXR...using a donor Range Rover sport
Classic or a td5 disco 3.0 bmw would be cool
Disco 3…so many bummed TDV6’s out there….
Great job lads glad it's all up and running 👌👏👊
Popcorn sound 😂😂😂😂
Why oh why do people always say 'LS Swop'? I mean why?
Its not the best engine by any means and its a big old Yank gas guzzler. Passable if you want to shove a big SUV down a straight road but here in the UK? Sorry wrong. So very wrong.
This was a brilliant engine swop and showed a deep understanding of both the Defender and the BMW engines because you chose the RIGHT BMW engine. Not every BMW engine is so good so people need to be careful. N47 and N57 anyone?
So yes next time do an RR conversion with this engine but keep it classy, sublime and powerful to befit the car and a less noisy exhaust with no engine burps.
Great sounds! If LS is too predictable, how about a supercharged LS, mustang 5.0 or even bmw 3.0 petrol next?
Got to be a V8 off some sort in the RR Classic ! The Defender is absolutely superb, well done chaps, love the channel. Happy Christmas boys 🎄
6 cyl is a better engine than a v8..ask a mechanic..
@@phantomwalker8251 I am an ex technician & I own a SDV8 & I don’t agree !
Well done! You sound so pleased.
Awesome build great work guys.
Need one of them, combining my two favorites motors Land Rover and bmw, what engine is it specifically? Great work lads
It’s an M57 from an E53! Mad engine
Well done there Lads. Do your own conversion kits for these, you'll sell them by the bucket loads.
I had the E39 BMW diesel engine, and its a fantastic engine, Great job guys,⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What a great choice of engine . And you guys have done a superb job. So what that in my d2.
such a sweet result, AMAZING!!!!! lovely rude engine sound GREAT JOB!!!!! I loved this mod since bmw is my other favorite brand and I like it so the combination of a land rover with a bm engine is so cool, and yeah regarding to do it with an automatic gear box go ahead with all crazy mods as possible Juice you rock!
Sweet, well done persevering. Have you seen the MW Machines air intake kit, i can recommend it! I'm still driving around with the drivers window down in December listening to it haha
Fantastic conversion, cheers 😃
sounds amazing ... still want to see you do a ridiculous d3/4
Sounds so good. Well done
way cool could listen to that all day
Put it on the Dino see what it's putting out sounds awesome looks great
Absolutely epic!🔥🔥
That sound is just awesome. I love it.... QUESTION.... This M57 that you have installed on your car is it a D2 or a D4? How much power does it run on?......
Hey guys... wonderful work... looking outstanding, impressive! Following you for quite some time, but I apparently missed something: Is this really a 3.0 diesel?
Would this engine and all its components fit in a LR Discovery 3 or 4? I'm getting so many ideas, seeing what you do to get a Juice car!
That sounds sooooo awesome now !!! 💚
Got there in the end great job well done love it. 👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Did you ever do anymore of these? Was it just the 3in bore that made it slightly too loud for your liking? 2.5 fix it?
You are a genius.
Next level defender...
