Man, you're one brave super technician! Good job, love the channel.

Just found you and subscribed instantly! You are a seriously awesome mechanic to take that on. Many here in Australia would not dream of it. I am very impressed in your abilities.

Love your approach to tackling this beast! Great job mate

Well done Ed. Unbelievable skill.

That is one big memory test. Top work mate!

Amazing to see so mutch dedication and know how..well deserved pay check that u ask for the job, man like this keep the whole world running.

Cracking effort, subbed!

you actually need to be a superengineer to do a job like that :-D insane that you did this the first time and with such an ease. hats off

Superb video. Well done, Ed!

What an amazing job and memory you have. I own one of these X5 M50d I know where I will becoming when I need a turbo fitting. Great work.😊

You are a verry good mechanic, hands down 👌🏼

Impressive piece of engineering. And same for the job also 👌🏻

Nice job! You're a brave man taking this job on. I can't imagine working on the quad turbo version of this engine. I think BMW engineers lost their fcuking minds making these maintenance nightmares. I hope the owner changes the oil more often than he has been doing up to this point.

Great job on that beast - thumbs up mate 👍

Have just completed a similar job on a X6 M50D. The oil pump failed starving the bearings and turbos of oil. Not sure about the X5, but on the X6 it is possible to remove the engine from the top. Its a massive job and your video helped immensely, thank you!

epic work customer is going to love the car again.

A pleasure to watch, Imagine the quad turbo one

Good skills buddy, seeing this Video i will keep my M54 as Long as posible 😁 keep it up

Massive job well done👍

Great work Ed you were brave to take that on for sure. That car is too complex for its own good IMHO.....

I get in a pickle changing the thermostat on the M57 .. All those bits and bobs to remember. I bet you was chuffed on that one! Soon you will have to learn all this Electric ⚡️ “Maintenance” 😂 Good job as alway’s Man 👍

Nice job man, respect ! I have a M550D G31, hope i never gonna have the same problems..

Great job men! Hvl.

Absolutely outstanding well done you 👏👏👏👏👏🙏 thinking of an E70 X5

Amazing video

Well done bro.

Very informative video. I have f30 with n57 engine and when I bought it (55k miles) had service done at 17k 32k and 47k. Changed the oil on the next day and since then was changed every 8-10k. On 100k now with zero problems. The car goes on a long runs from time to time so oil could last even longer I suppose. I think it depends a lot of the way you drive it - if you have a heavy foot should change your oil sooner.

Nice one mate, and indeed good engineering but do prefer the m57 over the n57 😎💪🏻

Looooovvvve this content. Have a twin turbo diesel x5. M57n2 no problems with chains and a lot simpeler. Always curious whats in store owning x50d with problems.

tnx for the video

Brave Man to take on that well done.. Hate to think what a BMW Main Dealer would charge, probably more than the Cars worth?

I have seen the same thing in an f15 m50d at 70k km, both small turbos shot. Luckily realised that a few months before warranty ended. New engine and transfer case were changed under warranty.

You really know your way around those BMWs, that looked like an insane amount of work. People that complain about the S85 V10 being problematic should look at one of these and shut up. BMW's oil change intervals are also the main reason why the N62 V8s have a bad reputation.

I have a 3.5D E70, and I only have a twin scroll turbo (I think). I have 184000Km's and am not looking forward to replacing chains. The transmission has to come out soon as I am having 3rd gear issues intermittently, I do those myself anyway, so may elect to drop the front and do the chains at the same time. Good video, plenty of info.

Brave man to take that job on (even braver to buy the bloody thing though) What vicious nasty bugger decided that putting the timing chain at the back of the engine was a good idea.

Pretty big project and yet you chose to put in an aftermarket chains kit. Why?

For the mileage pretty dirty inside, maybe thats why the turbos let the ghost out, consider different oil and/or more frequent oil changes.. also on the note connected to the oil issues and worries about comebacks, bad news man.. you didnt do conrod bearings. Terrible mistake! :D

Good job. Obviously the turbo failed because of the tuning to add more hp to the engine and/or the owner was a little bit too hard on the engine

Good job mate..Could it be the remap caused the early failure ?

@piccadillycircus9416

Slimy / old oil caused early failure . All the internal parts are black while they have to be shinny if oil was changed regularly. Never follow bmw recommended oil change intervals as they are way too long . On turbo Diesel engine you have to do oil change every 5-6k miles as max .

3 or 4 turbos?

At least once a year or every 8000 km. Also no spirited driving (over 3k rpm) until the oil is up to temp, and make sure the turbos cool before shutting the engine off after spirited driving.

I believe this motor is under-engineered, a superior designer would have made the motor more robust and reliable, 58k miles is just run-in for reliable engines like Barra in-line 6 which creates similar horse power and much more with a simple tune. You also need tools specific to this motor to do simple tasks like install the crank pulley, what an engineering disaster. Clean your workshop up, paint the floor, hang your tools up tidy, take some pride in your work place.

@lolxd7150

Barra Inline 6 isnt a Diesel Engine and has a lot less torque than the beast in this video. The problem for the engine designers is that it has to pass the worlds highest emission standards in the EU. So it is not possible to make the chain or the main bearings wider because that would increase the friction/rotating mass and the emissions aswell. I've had the Barra 6 cylinder in a ford falcon as well but you just can't compare those engines. As you said the barra is easy to fix and a very simple engine. Also driving wise you cant compare them.
