E46 M3 Clunk Fix - Front Diff Bush

Join me on a magical journey, where I make a 5 minute job from 6 months ago last a full day.
Nice to have the car properly together now!!
Thanks for all the replies on the last video too.

    UPDATE - this did not hold up. Do not fit a polybush here. OEM BMW or alloy part if you're racing. Make sure its pressed in, not pushed in like a polybush, or it will come out...

    Hey Danny.🖐 Stopping mid-sentence to show the RS6, haha, we're definitely cut from the same cloth.😁 Wearing headphones, I heard the clunk you had us listening for. Yeah, that bushing was rickety as hell. Ideally, it would have been changed back when the diff was out a while back, but hindsight is always 20/20. The Pro Tip on flipping the hacksaw blade the non-standard way was worth showing.👏 That'll help some poor guy in the future. I remember reading the brilliant Jackie Tran😂 comment a while back and I'm glad to see it stuck around. Taking the extra time to remove all the other parts seems like a pain up front, but makes the job go so much smoother. So it took a day's work to do, but the time was well spent. The M3 is a sweet machine and deserves all the effort you're putting into it.👍 Fingers crossed on the compression test. It sounds pretty healthy and hopefully the results will show it is. Have a great week ahead, mate. Cheers.

    Peter Kay reference in there? That’s surely the origin of the fine rain line, right? Great video as always Dan, making 16 minutes fly by. Thought you were a brave soul doing that bush in the car but it all worked out well!

    From what I have learnt from steel bolts going into Aluminium housings is to always put the threadlock nearer the bolt head side, because most people put it on the end of the bolt and that is what causes it to twist and snap if it get jammed. Also prevents the deeper threads from being damaged, If threadlock is applied nearer the head of the bolt.

    Good vid. I ended up fitting an oe bush in that location in the end as it helped keep the diff noise down a bit...

    The mrs’ Z4C has started clunking, I think it’ll either be gearbox or diff bush. Ideal timing to see a video of changing it!

    Got the same on my e36 m3. Tried to loosen the axles, destroyed the torx head on diff flange bolts. Didn't have time to remove the lower arms etc. I'll do the entire axle next year. It doesn't clunk if I'm super smooth on my inputs. But yeah it sucks..
