I will never find a mechanic like you. The owner of that mini is blessed!
TRQ y’all are the GOATs! Highly detailed and thorough explanation that not only saved me 13k dollars in repair costs. I followed this vid to a T and my mini is now up and kicking.
It's good to see a full view of the job, makes it much easier to see all the positions of bolts and parts.
Thanks for going to the trouble.
Never seen This much Detail information for this kind big job
I just used this video to replace my turbo in my 2013 and while it's a little different but its so similar that it helped as an overall guide. Bag you bolts and label them! It helped so much. I just wanted to say thank you so much TRQ! My car drives like new now it's so nice! Also for any one reading comments to see if there's other stuff to watch out for. Buy a oil return hose mine had the consistency of chewed bubble gum it was shot and a major failure point. Thanks again TRQ You guys rock!
I was in trouble, thanks to you I managed to repair my car thank you very much sir God bless you
Excellent presentation! I'm now convinced this is beyond my means to replace, for a number of reasons. I now have a better understanding what's involved and whether it's worth investing in the car. Thanks!
With all do respect to you as a mechanic, after you are going thru all this...replace all the turbo lines ( do not use OEM, use steel braided lines) and clean that mess behind the shield, replace gaskets on the oil housing, it will save you a lot of headaches later, believe me I did it without removing the front of the vehicle.
that’s what i just did lol
You did removed just the turbo without anny parts?
Hello so it is possible without removing the front of the car??
@@its_magicyt445 yes just loosen the rad support just enough to wiggle the turbo out no need to remove the front clip
This is an R56 Mini Cooper S from 07-09 pre LCI.
You missed replacing some known fail points. The oil lines for the turbo should always be replaced. The gasket sets for the oil cooler and oil filter housing should have been replaced.
The oil filter housing gasket almost always fails between 70k - 90k miles.
Had to laugh when you said "the appropriate coolant" coolant for the Mini is supposed to be blue.
Other than that, great job taking the extra time to completely remove the front end for the purpose of being able to see everything. You should note that it is NOT necessary to it to that extent and "Service Mode" takes half the time while still giving plenty of room.
Great video! Quality camera work and impeccable service!
great direction.excellent camera angles. job well done. Thank you for the video
Thank you for this video. I couldn't have done this without your guidance.
Great video, very helpful. I have a 2015 Mini Countryman All4 S and this was pretty close to perfect.
To those who think they can do the replacement with out taking off the radiator, save yourself the nightmare and spend the time to remove it. It will make things way easier and you will not have to take it all out again after bending the hard oil line.
FYI to all no need to remove front end .took less than 2 hours to remove .and did this with very basic tools it is alot less work to just work in some tight spaces .the next video is how there going to change the oil ." but first we going remove the frontend " ?! so we can access yhe oil drain plug.
Thank you for the great video. I am on my way to putting it all back together.
I have so much respect for your abilities but I would have liked to have heard the actual names of some of the parts rather than "this hose here", etc... Great video and instruction. Thank you for taking the time.
great video very much apprecieated for being very detailed most videos are not. thank you!
Me: “Replace what?”
Him: “ @28:02 “
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The range of the torque wrench in the tool list has a minimum of 25 ft lbs - most of the applications here are under 25 ft lbs, with a lowest of 6.25 ft lbs. What's up with that?
No new oil line ??
I have moved the front end into service position a few times for replacing the fan or catalytic converter and other services. I have never found it necessary to drain the coolant. The service manuals do not have draining the coolant as a requirement for front end service position. You do need to be careful of the AC lines. For replacing the heat shield, turbo, and replacing the various turbo oil and cooling lines you do not need too much extra space. If you are replacing the clutch, you will need to move the radiator out further which will likely disconnection coolant lines and draining the system.
I want to add, I do see how completely removing the radiator makes it much easier to get to a number of the bolts. I am in Southern California so I don't need to worry about rust so things come apart easily. If I was in an area with rust, I think I would remove the radiator to give max space.
Very thorough and helpful video, but couldn't this all be done by putting the front in the service mode instead of removing the front core support? Much less work that way.
I like thr step by step information
What was the symptoms of a bad turbo booster?
Great step by step video. But isn’t 02-07 Mini Coopers supercharged?? I have a 2010 so I take it that it’s pretty much the same steps.
Does the turbo wastegate come pre set or does it need to be adjusted
Why remove the bumper ? The top support can be loosened or removed and the turbo abd manifold cone out through the top..
nice video mate well done good job !
Thanks!
Very good video thanks for sharing....regards¡¡
That was painful to watch you take each component off the core support separately when you can pull the whole thing with radiators washer tank intercooler hoses and headlights still attached
+Service Counter We appreciate the feedback. Sometimes there are multiple ways to accomplish the same repair. 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
I totally agree, but for the video it definitely made it easier to see everything.
What dipstick is that? I'm trying to find it but no luck..
Love the video just watched every second from start to finish I need a mechanic. Do you live in England by any chance to do the same to my mini? Great video 👍
Wow to do this job you have to strip the engine down. Take it apart completely. You have to be clever . Great video but I'm gutted I need more money and a mechanic for this job
Thanks x tech
Looks so simple 😅😅
Can you reuse the same coolant you drained ?
+bryan6687 It is recommended to use new coolant.
Great
I need a new turbo for my 207 thp
I think the turbo in my r56 has gone. It is whining on boost then when i release the acceleration there is loud air dumping noise i don't have a BOV on there it is standard. On acceleration i'm getting intermittent boosts and it feels as though the turbo is sometimes missing. How can i be sure that the turbo is not operating correctly before i look at buying a new turbo and starting this job? it doesn't feel right to me, but are there any tests i can do to check. i have an obd2 scanner. it's not throwing up any codes. But it's noisy and not responding when i need it to. Any advice you can give would be great. If i need to replace this video is perfect. Thanks for making it.
i have one for $900 with less than 2000 miles on it, its the stock turbo if you’re interested new is around $1,200. I installed a bigger turbo
Not sure why Turbos are so expensive in the U.S. My R56 mini is in the shop having a new turbo fitted. the turbo only cost £220. so that like $300. and its brand new..
❤
Do you really have to take the whole front of that car off just to get to the exhaust manifold and turbo? If that’s the case I would never buy a mini Cooper and the garage guys that have to work I want it, will make big dollars per hour
Grrrr my turbo gone after watching this video I need to save some money for a professional . Not easy that
So by doing all that unnecessary parts removel you charge the customer what ? No need to remove front end
What an oily mess ! That cartridge for the oil is in just a crappy spot and leaves a mess . So unless you have a bit of OCD it will become as we see here plus that infamous oil line for the Turbo .
Why.... why did you pull the whole core support off lol
Do you not have to pull it off?
@@juliomartinez6622 no lol
I am horrified to see that: 1) He DIDN"T prime the turbo with any oil when installing. 2) He didn't replace the oil line! That turbo is probably going to fail within 10K miles because of those two HUGE mistakes.
He put oil in it and spun the turbine a lil
I saw him put oil in turbo and spin it before pouring the oil back out of turbo.....he didn’t replace the line which I did hear is an issue
I would still prime that turbo it’s not a difficult task but it’ll insure you’re on the safe side and that your turbo is going to last.
He also forgot a MAJOR fail point, REPLACE THE OIL COOLER GASKETS!
Back to booooooostin
feels like they put the turbo there so you wouldnt have to remove the entire front end to change it 🤦♂guess bmw strikes again
Do you honestly truly have to tear the whole front end of the car off just to get to the exhaust manifold where the turbo is, because if that’s the case I would never buy a mini Cooper. And the mechanics are going to love it because you can charge out the butt per hour
You don't need to take it all the way off. After removing the bumper cover he could have just removed the 2 bolts each side underneath for the bumper support, and the 2 bolts on each side up top for the radiator support. At that point you can pull the whole front end forward about 6 inches and have plenty of room.
Without that extra room you would never be able to get the heat shield off in front of the cat.
Honestly, putting it in "service mode" (pulling the front out a few inches) only takes about 20 minutes. But saves so much time beating up your knuckles.
For the purpose of this video, it made it extremely easy for us to see everything.
I should add, I own an 09 R56 Mini (same model in video) and in my 8 years of ownership, doing 90% of the work myself, Service Mode is is worth the extra 20 mins.
Hueeeeeeeee
do not follow this video, this guy is having a laugh
Show me how to do it the.
To be fair, he did miss a few things and didn't need to remove the whole front end, but it did make it easier to show everything in a video.
