  • Hi everyone and welcome back to the shed!
    In this video I am going to be carrying out a full service of my BMW E65 7 Series.
    This will include an oil and filter change, air filter exchange, fuel filter exchange and a drain and replacement of the engine coolant.
    I hope that you find this video helpful and entertaining.

    Great video, thanks. I've been removing my pollen filters and upper firewall to replace my air filter, this will be much easier going forward....
    My new fuel filter usually comes with a little flat rubber washer that goes between the filter and the rear (big) fitting.
    My car takes around 7.5 to 8.0 litres of oil to get it to max in the iDrive screen.

    i do the same thing with my used oil filter and i like how bmw uses all those covers underneath the vehicle to protect against the elements, but it does look a little annoying to remove and put back.

    • @KevsShed
      @KevsShed  4 года назад

      The car is surprisingly clean behind the plastics, the brake lines still look brand new so there is a benefit to it! I agree it is a little annoying having to remove it all!

    On the oil filter cover: first I clean it with brake cleaner, when assembled with the new filter I lubricate with new oil where it is necessary.
    Plus don't forget to reset the oil life interval (in the "secret" menu)

    How do you prime the fuel system after the fuel filter replacement?

      Simply by turning on the ignition, the lift pump in the tank will push fuel through the filter up to the HPFP 👍🏻

      @@KevsShed thanks for the answer, i just replaced fuel supply pump and fuel filter, then turn on the ignition and the fuel supply pump starts, and I hear that the fuel system is vented, but the pump does not stop, it seems that it cannot achieve the required pressure before starting the engine, because it did before, what do you think the problem can be?

      @@malisa5211 I think those oil quantities have incorrectly been quoted as the total oil required when rebuilding a dry engine. If you put 8.25 litres in then it will be way over the upper limit. You are much better off putting in a little at a time and checking before topping it up.

      It’s an electrical nightmare but mechanically they are fantastic and this Diesel engine is bombproof. If you are able to carry out diagnostic functions yourself then ownership is easy. If you need to take it to a dealer every time there is an electrical issue you’ll never be out of there!

      @MBCar freak if you manage to find your self a well sorted out example go for it 2007/8 is a good model year as the i drive got a much needed update and new lci headlights and electronically it became more reliable by a fair margin in comparison to pre-facelift/ pre-Lci model. A code reader would be handy as its a german car both benz and bmw like to throw up random codes sometimes, just good to have if your going to potentially buy one.
