Used your video recently to replace the valve cover due to faulty pcv valve on my 2016 F80 at 85k miles. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skill!

I just followed your video to the T to replace the Valve cover on my 15’ M4. Thanks for putting this out here. Saved myself $2,000.

​@@javierjimenez3627Still beats paying BMW $3383 quote for the dealer to work on my car. I bought the parts and paid my seasoned mechanic friend to help me the labor. The Valve Cover alone is $740 on FCP Euro w/ life warranty guarantee replacement. Still way less then paying BMW to work on my M4.

Great video! Did this job a few weeks ago and would say there’s no need to drain the coolant or remove the charge cooler. Just loosen the clamp on the U pipe, pop up the cooler and put something under it to keep it up.

@@anthonyvillalpando1694 Not harder at all. There's loads of slack in the pipes at the front of the cooler. You do however need to pop it out of the U pipe. I replaced the 2 fuel pressure sensors and I did have to remove the cooler for that.

I finished the repair on Tuesday. After the completion, the engine compartment of the vehicle started to smoke. I thought I had messed up and was very frustrated. After inspection, it was found that it was caused by the evaporation of the detergent used to clean the oil stain. At present, everything is normal. Thank you for your previous N55 video. I tried it. It's really tiring to shoot and explain while working.

Hey excellent video! Recently my PCV went bad and my ‘16 M3 makes that whining noise at idle when warm. Took to my local BMW dealer yesterday praying it would be covered under 7/70 or 8/80 emissions warranty but they say no because it’s Virginia, not California or other states that do CA emissions. They quoted me $2300 for the job (valve cover replacement). In your opinion how many hours should it take a BMW tech to complete this? They’re saying 8 hours 😮 Ps- my car is a 3/16 build and 67k miles.

@Zeiten

Жыл бұрын

Well, depends on skill, i do it in about 2-3 hours. The quote you got is pretty good by California standards, and regarding hours to complete the job usually shops take estimated time lets say 4 hours in this case and double it, and I don’t blame them at all, estimated hours don’t get into account shop’s rent and bills and local laws etc

@@Zeiten, thank you for you response. I took it off again, checked super carefully when putting it back in, torqued in correct order, mounted everything back. But still... same issue. Coils and plugs have been switched around so I've ruled those out. Any advice on next step in troubleshooting? The only two ideas however far-fetched they might be, is that there is dirt in the fuel injectors (but both of them...?!?) or that the cable to the coils/ground got damaged.

I ffinally figured it out with some professional help, so for the sake of others that might end up in this situation. I had faulty new bosch oem spark plugs. One had a loose porcelain, the others were causing misfires. Pulled em out and the new ngk plugs fixed it all.

Привет, Тим, хороший английский уже у тебя. Есть проблема с моей BMW E92, возможно подскажешь. Когда переезжаю лежачие полицеские передний мост издает такой шум. Но когда длительное время погода сухая - шум исчезает. When I run over speed bumps, the front axle makes such a noise. But when the weather is dry for a long time, the noise disappears. What could it be, give me a clue. kzread.info/dash/bejne/paaV15SnZqTZgNY.html
