    Yeah by the time you started it I had already identified that it probably smokes and leaks oil lol. Needs a VC for sure. PCV is probably the reason for the rough start and bouncy idle. Since thats baked into the VC, odds are the gasket is leaking too. OFHG is almost regular maintenance on BMWs. 90% sure at this mileage the oil pan is leaking too. Fast forward 12 minutes lol yeah you already know what needs to be fixed.

    I have always been on top of my maintenance before mods. I did hold off on my control arms till they failed. I though I had a bad front wheel bearing as the sound was on rotation. Turns out the lower arm went bad. Went with Whiteline for my 135i. Ended up doing engine and trans mounts too with oem. 2k real quick. Fyi that mosselman failed my smog in California. I had to hit a few stations till I found one that didn’t look under hood.

    John, at 17:25 you mention the center support bearing, but these cars don’t have that. They rock the one piece carbon fibre driveshaft, and therefore don’t have a center support bearing. A few 2018 M3/M4’s have them, but all the earlier ones don’t :)

  • @ThicWhips

    @ThicWhips

    Ай бұрын

    Only early models (yes this one) have the carbon driveshaft. Later models do not. Meaning that later models WILL need center support bearing serviced, just like any other two piece driveshaft. I am speaking in terms of models in general for maintenance not just the model i own.

  • @Roger-fv9pw

    The real question is do you love that car. And all us hobbyists and track day guys would say yes. There's no maintenance you can do to compensate the thrill and driving experience. There is no other, unless you want a Lamborghini or Ferrari. And you thought those cars were expensive to fix. BMW IS really a great deal. The real mechanical guy has no problem with fixing that car, that really is not that hard to do. All us who know love the challenge and adventure, but more the thrill to get to drive one.

    2:20, Do not just go coilover. 90% of the time they dont ride nearly aswell as the stock strut setup. All you need to do is get a shock with a shorter piston so it's correct and doesn't bottom out

  • @IamJewz

    @IamJewz

    Ай бұрын

    You're making a very bold claim that a proper coilover isn't as good as the stock suspension. I've owned 2 f80s and an F87 and before even tuning, tires and either KWs or Ohlins were the first things along with proper tires. Coils on a sports car makes a noticeable difference on its handling characteristics.
