After doing this job last night on my 2017 M240i I’d like to call out a few things. 1.) Don’t pull the sound deadening foam out until AFTER you have fully loosened the strut brace and preferably remove the center cowling first. I don’t get why you’d remove the foam first if your going to loosen the strut brace and remove the center cowl anyway. You will tear your foam especially if you have an upgraded hpfp. There is also a post towards the back passenger side of the engine that’s hard to see. 2.) Torque spec for spark plugs are 23NM or 17ft/lbs. 3.) Torque spec for coil packs are 8NM if you wanna really get technical. 4.) My strut brace took an E18 for all 4 bolts. No big deal as I’ve heard these bolts may vary, but just be mindful to avoid stripping the bolt. I couldn’t easily find any torque specs for the strut brace so I just went with the 30NM mentioned in this video. Can anyone confirm? This was a great, in-depth video and made this job much less daunting. Thanks.

@@acimdotnet is there anywhere that details this website etc as I keep seeing conflicting information? Also the whole repolace the bolts thing, is that true (I would suspect a garage wouldn't replace them) but if its a stretch bolt which I believe the plus 90 degrees means then I guess they do need to be replaced. Just seems a lot for a spark plug change.

@@davidsmale4002 Yes, I wrote above "renew the bolts". This information is from the official service manual. If you don't want to buy new bolts, I would tighten them just to 56Nm to avoid eventual break. I planned to get new bolts for the spark change in few thousands kilometers, but then I had to replace one VANOS actuator so I just replaced both actuators and put the old bolts back with 56Nm. But for the planned spark plugs change I will get the new bolts as well. I just didn't want to buy them twice.
Thank you man. How t preset the maintenance interval for spark plugs after changing them ? Same question for air filter etc ...
i didn't notice when you would put the sound deadening back in from this video, other than that thank you very much, getting my 440i in a couple days and gonna get this plug/coil refresh kit from your site as soon as i touch the car and can confirm it is actually reald and not a dream :D i still have the n54 plug remover thing from you guys actually and i'm hoping it is the same tool as this b58 one. i just hope to complete this with no cracked/broken/missing bits. can you leave any of the cowl off or sound deadening off or is it all functional on this car?
The proper torque for the spark plug depends on thread pitch. M12x1.25 = 23NM M14x1.25 = 30NM I believe 23NM is the most common.
What torx did you use for the first things you unscrewed in the video? Towards the top bar. Also, is it safe to vaccuum clean the spark plug holes after blowing air into them? I want it to be extra clean :)
awesome video, liked and subbd
How many total types of inverted torx bolts?
You should mention the sizes of the sockets
Amazing vid! But isn’t the coils need to be programmed?

my OEM replacement spark plugs from BMW say on the box to torque to 23NM, this is for the B58 engine on a 2017 440i. Wondering where the 30nm came from in this video??
@acimdotnet

That’s wrong torque (for 14x1.25 plugs), you are right, it should be 23Nm for B58.
No matter how nice of a video you make, you cant convince me this is easy. The time it took you to remove the plastic i can do spark plugs on a corolla.

I broke mine on the MAF like a year ago. It doesn't move. It bugged me for a while but you can't buy just that. You would have to get the entire connector. I even tried part outs and no one wanted to give it to me without the whole harness.

Why the Beru plugs in the video but then the NGK plugs when you’re looking at the wear on them? Aren’t Bosch the OEM for the B58?

@@HamNo3guards over tightening will cause the threads to weaken and can strip them. It also causes the spark plug to sit off direction which isn't a whole lot of an issue but stripped threads would be an issue.
