Nate, you're my favorite YT'er atm. So many channels filled with doom and gloom (rightly, unfortunately), it's nice to come here to relax. Even when you have problems! But the problem solving is very satisfying, even for an observer. Keep it up!

Looking forward to see the rest of the work that needs to be done on this car. I don’t care what car you work on I enjoy them all.

If you lock two nuts against each other at the top of those cam cover bolts you could easily use a torque wrench.

One of the early birds. Great video... waiting for more BMW videos though 🥺

Soon should have parts in Monday

Hi I commented on the second video that sounds like a bolt on the flywheel got lose and is tapping on metal if the car is automatic I seen this happen a lot and people confused the sound with a rod knock great video

Old school diagnosis technique: Remove the spark plug wires one at a time to see if its a rod knock. The knocking sound will change on the cylinder with the bad rod bearing if the sound of the knock changes when the spark plug is not firing. If the knocking sound does not change when the spark plug wires are removed one at a time, then the source of the knock is not a rod bearing gone bad but is from somewhere else.

That bolt would've been just fine!! 🤣😂 Thanks for the nice video!

Looks like a Monty Python car. That's too bad. Sucks to do all that work.

It didn't sound like a top end problem to me as the pitch was too low. I would've said rod knock. Definitely not main bearings. The work was worth doing though if you're able to fix the real issue. It is just a K10 Micra under the skin. The Micra was on a par with other small Japanese cars of the era such as the Honda City/Jazz, Daihatsu Charade and Toyota Starlet.

Get yourself some crows feet attachments for torquing bolts that you can't get a socket on to!

@@NathansBMWWorkshop don't forget to do your calculations when using a cross foot.

In Japanese, we'd call this car furyouhin (不良品: defective goods). May have a bent rod from overboost and predetonation.

Thanks for sharing...........Sounds like a rod bearing(s). Was the Previous owner a e60 M5 Driver?🤫🤔😒🤢

Today the 26th there was a strike at the post office in England...some parcels might be delayed but some won't. Who knows ..
