That red is looking CLEAN!!!
Thx bro!!!
Dude mine did the same thing when I got mine. Picked up the car from the dealer, and drove directly to my GFs work to pick her up. When I started the car again, it was in limp mode. Dealer took care of it for me so I’m pretty grateful it happened when it did.
They have to in most states due to the legal concept of an "implied warranty". It always surprises me how agreeable people are to let the dealer get the upper hand on them like this.
@@funfun5656 Agreed, if my dealer didn’t fix it I would take the car right back. Then will have to fix it before selling it again.
Im constantly in awe of Mike's databank of knowledge. Dudes like a walking encyclopedia of car repair. The rain man of BWM, if you will.
Spencer I just wanted to let you know I just put a deposit down on a 2013 E92. The only reason I felt comfortable pulling the trigger is because of your videos. I am a DIY guy and have a mini lift in my garage, so seeing that I CAN actually work on the car myself was extremely encouraging. Thanks for your content brother!
Spencer is one of the best dudes out there and his energy is always inspirational! Best of luck!
Love to see you back at it Spencer. Excited to see what is to come!
Mine went out after 24 hours of owning my m3 last year, didn’t think anyone would beat me but you beat me with 3 hours lol
But like you said you expect and budget these things, which I thankfully done. It’s the fun of owning these amazing v8 M3s!
Exactly! Lol, it's my new record. Then I got pulled over in the same 24 hours. Broke two new records with this car so far, lmao. Definitely have to plan for these things if you want to do this without too much worry. It's bound to happen!
@@SpencerBerke lol you taking the crown! But yeah it’s what makes owning e9x m3s fun, I’m glad I got one over a turbo charged f8x m3/M4. As beautiful they look inside and out along with how much more power you can add it, their engine and exhaust tone does not hold agains to the v8 m3 tone. But each to their own and I respect both cars just down to personal preference in the end.
@@porschefanatic1049 the dealer is a used car dealer. It’s a car out of warranty. They don’t have to give him anything. Once he signs the paper it’s his problems and all. Those m3’s are a repair nightmare if you put miles on them and enjoy them. No way around it. F80/82 are way more reliable.
You from Dallas?
Mike is the man! If I’m ever in CA I’m definitely visiting him! Including you too Spencer!
Another informative and helpful video, thanks Spencer.
Love it! Cannot wait to get an e90 M3. You are inspiring man
man i love mike lol keep up the vids spencer happy you're back!
Sometimes I feel like I'm watching myself when I watch Spencer's video. Literally my reason for considering RUclips
Love the video, I Do like the part about the F80 and your honest feelings on the car and what brings you back to your new car. The latest or newer is not for everyone. Glad your in a better place now and you made positive changes. Life is about falling and getting back up, Crumbling up the paper and starting up with a fresh sheet of paper. I subscribed and look forward to seeing what's next. Keep positive and real. I'm inspired !
Very very understanding and explanatory and glad he had many questions same as I
I've watched since back in the day when you used to make appearances on some of the more famous yt channels. Nevertheless keep the work up, some of us still rock with you
Thanks for the info Mike! & Spencer!
That line up is sick. Loving Mikes spec.
Love that line up at the end
It happens, glad you got a great shop & friend that owns a awesome shop
Love the video man!
Your guy knows his stuff!!
Haven’t seen it all but the videos already fire lol
looooove the cloth seats but my mind keeps wanting to see custom cloth recaro sportster seats 😍😍 but I get it, Mike combing through it is top priority.
Mike needs his own channel. He's very gooood!
Really cool seeing a shop owner telling people to do the install at home, makes me wanna switch shops.
it's a sick car bro congrats
onof the best spec m3 out there it's being your 3. e9x m3 you know which one to buy for sure :)
Cant wait to see what exhaust your getting :D The iPe exhaust sounds very good :D just saw a clip on insta
Sweet ride 🚘 Need to add carbon fiber spoiler,mirrors caps,splitters .Love you bro.👍
another fire video !!
thx Carlo!!!!
Bro you've gone full circle!!! LOL awesome car! :)
I love the smile while driving
Hey I'm the guy from the Facebook group lol. Yep 162k miles on my oem actuators. I even have a set in my garage waiting for the day they go out lol
I have a 2013 vert. 60k km so I think I have some time on my actuators and rod bearings, I have purchased them and will install them year-end when I go back to South Africa for holiday. Summers are short in Canada.
Congrats nice car
love the te37s
Just lost my Throttle Bodies yesterday 😢. It’ll be good to have it taken care of, honestly 😅. Still love My E93! Smiles per… Cheers hope alls well ✌🏾👍🏾
It makes me wonder if the codes were cleared just before it was sold, which would explain why the issue popped up so quickly after it exchanged hands. That red is gorgeous though, esp with the slicktop. An e9x m3 is very high up on my next car, looking for a replacement so I don’t put miles on my weekend warrior.
40mins for the actuator? Yup this guy is a goat
Sweet ride!!! Hey what is the name of yours wheels? I think they would look good on my e63 m6... Danke Scheon!
About to buy an e92 M3 in Spain. Recently sold a 2017 c63s coupe and can't lie. Had more fun on my test drive in the e92 than I remember in my c63. TA and rod bearings have been done. But hos long do TA last though?
Your car sees a good mechanic and it got the hots for him.
What the best shop in the San Francisco BayArea I just got a 2013 E93 M3 and I want to be ready for actuators and rod bearings
You need to lubricate every knuckle the actuators are moving. It make it easier to move and will pretend the actuators from failing. I did it once every Season. I used Würth HHS 5000 which is perfect for these temperatures.
Nice M3 !
Btw here at my dealership in Canada , the cost of one TA is 1900 canadians dollars lol
2012 M3, My TA have gone out multiple times. I just restart the car and it drives fine again after going into Limp. Its been about a year and i havent had the problem since. I know im going to have to replace them eventually
Has anyone looked into lubing the actual ITB parts as well? Maybe gunk building up on the ITBs also contributes to TA resistance and leading to failure?
What was the lip brand on ur blue e90?
I literally repaired almost everything on my aa supercharged 6mt m3 2008 I had for 5 years. I did 5 track days and drove it hard. But that model m3 is very unreliable except for the actual engine. I have a stage 2 dct m4 now and I’m glad. I don’t know why you didn’t like your f80. The e92 sounds awesome but it’s older tech that breaks easily. It’s also a smelly car. At least without cats. My m4 has catless downpipes and doesn’t smell at all. It also gets better gas mileage. It’ll also out handle the e92 any day. And it has torque. As much as I liked the sound of the e92 even supercharged it was low on torque.
What mileage was it sitting at? Curious how long they lasted originally
I doubt it broke down 3 hours after buying it. You already know what/where about those actuators. Just for the content I get it.
Hey Spencer you never gave us the review for the ISC coilovers, I’m thinking about getting them for my M3, what did you think of them?
i just installed them on my m3 this week it was like brick hard i hated it at first i said i just wasted 900$ on this junk then i checked the damping settings no suprise they were on the stiffest settings when i turn them on softer settings omg my car feels so nice right now they are one of the best coilovers out there and they are dirt cheap i highly recommend them to anyone looking for a coilovers i am so happy i got them transformed my m3 just go out and buy it but don't forget to adjust the damping settings :)
What codes where you getting? I just got same issue with code p161f
I Noticed you Commented on alot of Rich Pianas old videos
Effin @truongmikemai... you the man bro.
Glad I’m not the only one who isn’t burble tune fan 🤷🏽♂️
👀 M3 Touring 😲
anyone knows what is the name of the wheels i need a set asap for my white e92 m3 they look sick
I need to find a shop like this in the San Francisco Bay Area
what can it be my bmw e90 335i started it and engine service light got on and my motor fan was just like screaming, thats all?😅 from finland and all service places are super expensive
Where’d you find this car, cause I’m looking to buy one and eBay motors and other similar websites aren’t cutting it for me 😂
The delivery of the red one, reminds me of the delivery of your old blue one lol
I got 60k miles on my e93 and the DSC malfunction light comes on and my shit goes in to limp mode .. First time it happen someone dumbass almost hit me so I breaked super hard and that came on you got any ideas to why it Came on or comes on ?
What code does it give you when it’s on limp-mode?
makes me grateful the 2008 BMW m5 i was thinking of buying for almost 15k sold so this wouldnt happen to me (and before you guys come at me i own a 07 BMW 335i twin turbo, ive had to replace water pump/therm and some vaccum lines but great car im a bmw guy but the Ms are another level of headache lol)
Dude I Fucking Love Ur E90 and the wheels 🔥
Exhaust leaks cause those lights aswell as o2 sensors not always throttle actuators but then again it's better to do them now then later
I wanna hear the pops and bangs!
Deja Vu aye 👀
I miss the days of you shooting cars!
When I had mine my dash would say engine operating at half power randomly then turn off anybody know what the problem for that would be? Actuators also?
Heyyyyy, how many miles is on the car?
I have you beat! My bank 1 actuator failed 2 hours into me picking up my e90 the other day 😭
You need to upgrade your v1 to the new one, man!! It's a lot better
Are you going to do rod bearings on this one too?
He did say they were done
what is the cost of replacing it?
🥺🤦🏽♂️🥺🥰😅😈 gotta love them
I see Ali with the red tattoos from Christian vlogs before lol
I bought my bmw next three hours i had error too oil pump.... replace
Arlin at Precision now lol
Only with the best from now on 😜
I'm at 66k in mine and so far so good on the TA's 😬
That’s right about the mileage they go at. 🙏🏻
@@Chris-qc9dj haha yep, I'm expecting them to go anytime! More than likely they'll go at the worse possible moment knowing my luck 😄
Yeah that's a good thing
Keep telling yourself that
Te specs?
Seems like a lot of people had their actuators break after buying them or seem to think so. This doesn't happen that way. There are early signs that an actuator is going out, it's not out of nowhere. The error codes can also be cleared to seem like it's the first time. Good thing is that this is an easy and relatively cheap to fix issue. You can buy rebuilt ones for under $400 each. Labor is something anyone with technical expertise can do.
I personally prefer sport style of a coupe. Sedan reminds me of old cressida's.
Get rid of the burble tune. It sends extra fuel through the combustion chamber and essentially wash’s the oil out of the cylinder.
It is better to use the Rebuild-UK M3 TVAs...with a Lifetime Warranty. The OEM BMW or VDO TVAs will fail again after 50k-80k miles.
Three Tips:
- Always replace both TVAs (Originally cost $1400 each. Now $700 each and less for the OE VDO TVAs).
- Also replace the Fuel Tank Breather Valve nearby ($50) on top of the Idle Control Valve. Fixes the bouncing Idle.
- If you have a high mileage BMW E9X M3 >100k miles replace the Idle Control Valve, which is known to be defective. Other parts like idle rails and hoses are also replaced. Fixes rough idle.
I bought a 135i N55 and my charge pipe blew off throttle body less than 3k miles after having it
if you do only one mode for the 135i, it's putting in a metal charge pipe. i got lucky when i bought mine it already had a evolution raceworks installed. my first problem was a missing o-ring in either the inlet or outlet pipe. 3rd mechanic finally found the problem with a smoke test. was in limp mode for a month till he found it.
I think the dealership knew about the turn it on and off 10 times trick lol
C est un M5 e39 y love the cars
That chime gives me anxiety😳
see!!! F8x jus don't have to worry about that. so if you have a good friend who is a mechanic... sure go E9x... but for looks and RELIABILITY!!!! F8x ALL DAY
My E92 broke down last week..my mechanic told me it would cost 5 000$ to fix🤭
Damm that’s Cheap brother lucky to be you
@@kathyy5903 cheap for you maybe😅 I don’t have that much money but I’ll probably be able to pay for it soon..
@@jamient4k I was jk. Buying a bmw just know when it comes down with repairs you know you gonna waste some good ass money
@@kathyy5903 I might fix it and sell the car🥲 Wish I knew what I had to go trough before buying it.. will defo buy another one later but not for a couple of years😔
If it has a burble tune get rid of it because it can wash the cylinder and destroy the motor.
get used to it. make sure to replace the plugs/coils as a pack not seperate imediatly.also the oil/filter.
So basically they cleared the codes somehow just to get it sold??? 🤦♂️. Is that possible?
i think the red car might have a little bad luck lol be safe
what does it stink like?
It has no cats. So burnt oil. Lol!
@@Chris-qc9dj catless burns oil? sorry im new to cars
Why would BMW relegate such a vital job as throttle body actuation to a PLASTIC GEAR? Bimmer heads pls explain.
"Bmw has left the chat"
@@vlad23i 😹
At first I read the title as broke down 3 times. That worried me.
haha, that would worry me a lot.
What I heard was, 'so if you drive it hard, you are OK...' - problem solved!
The previous owner cleared the codes
