대단하다!

just wondering if this install will be similar to the x5m e70?

Wonder how close this install is to doing it on an E70 X5M 🤔

I assume you had the battery terminals disconnected? Also, how long did this take generally?

Life saver. Thank you so much for this video, saved me a lot of hassle.

My dealer just quoted me $5,300 to do this. I'd love to do it myself and this video is great, but it still scares me.

How do you release pressure on refrigerant?

Thanks! Muchas gracias tío, por el trabajo.

Hey man i removed all the bolts and harnesses and my cage still wont budge on the driver’s side? What am i doing wrong? The passenger side has the slack

Cool 👍🏻

Bro u made this look easy.,this job is an absolute nightmare but I saved $3500. Thx

Thank you for the video. Would you mind explaining the modification you made to the heatshield to get the O2 sensor to thread into the downpipe?

I’m following all steps. But now stuck removing the radio because the shifter is in park and not enough room to pull out the radio. 2011 bmw 328i e92 n51. Any ideas?

Props to you sir for the craftsmanship and skill shown in this video and for your contribution to the DIY community. With your video along with ISTA/D I was successful in making this repair on a U.S. version 2008 128i/E82, left-hand drive vehicle. I performed a complete A/C service (condenser, evaporator, compressor) job that took me several days to complete. Original Denso compressor was still working at 178k miles. The Valeo evaporator failure in my case was typical of many. If I may share my experience for others benefit: 1.) You correctly show the heater box and cage firewall screws installed after the cage is completely secure in the interior. DIYer do not be tempted to install these before the interior mounting nuts are tightened. The firewall attachments are with "compensation nuts" that expand when screwed tight. If installed too early it will be impossible to get a proper fit in the interior. 2.) The two 2 styrofoam crash pads mounted to the cage on the drivers side were described as impossible to remove without breakage but in my case the screws could be removed and reattached with a T20 torx bit without damage. What appears to be a blind screw head is in fact a T20. 3.) DIYer may want to thoroughly document the routing of the wiring harness - labeling the plugs, wire routing, and attachment points - before disassembly. It would have saved me a lot of head scratching. The mechanic here clearly knows this vehicle like the back of his hand. Finally all I can say is it was one heck of a job but I'm glad to be able to do the work myself. With videos like this I feel I was able to get a quality job with reliable results plus improvements along the way like the fit of the E82 dash and the glovebox. They are notorious for rattles and creaking at attachment points. After careful examination I attended to 11 points on the dash and 6 on the glove box and trim assembly with carefully placed adhesive felt tabs. The cost of having this done professionally would have been prohibitive. Many thanks - Captain Tim, Tampa, FL

Thx for sharing. Excellent job and video👍

I watched several different videos on E90 dash removal / evaporator core removal, and this is by far the best! Thanks for posting it.

So is it worth changing the heater core while you're in there?

So helpful! Thank you so much!

As far as order of operations and technique goes absolutely brilliant the video is also extremely good getting those shots. Taking the time to set it up brilliant. I just completed this took me all weekend. Be careful of the bottom heater core tube hook up. I smashed mine while pushing down on the air box while sitting on the bench. Very delicate things, I bent it back round just used my fingers it hasn't leaked so I guess it's okay.

Thank you for this video. I didn't even search for it and I need to replace my heater core. I found that even though this is not replacing the heater core, it is the best video out there for it. Will also inspect the evaporator in the process now too.

I would have done the heater core at the same time. Because whats another 200 bucks? Thank you for the outstanding video

holy moly , that is a ton of work to replace. thank you for the extensive video. subscribed, love to see more.

Highest appreciation for sharing this, if I would live in your country I could be calm if you do this job for me, unfortunately I do not trust in the local mechanicals so I need to do it myself

Please tell me, which size the tool has to remove oxigen sensors... i already ordered 2 different tools and first didnt fit down there and second with several sizes in also didnt fit...

Does it matter which brand evaporator you use as a replacement? I've seen bits and pieces stating it does, but can't really find anything conclusive. Found a few snippets stating you need to know if it's a denso or valeo style system, but all online parts store images look the same to me...Need to get this done and don't want to wait a week for parts with the car disassembled. If so, any suggestion as to figure out which one a car has? I called a around to a few places, gave vin, but all said visual inspection needed... Also, thank you for such a comprehensive DIY!

THANK YOU!!!

do you have video for f30 series?

Excelente video lo logré hacer sin ningún problema 💪🏽💪🏽

How much do you charge to do this on a 2011 328i sedan ? Great job by the way

wow

i paid over $3k man, BMW fucked me over on that one

This is by far the most comprehensive video I've seen for this project. You made it look easy. How long does it take an experienced tech like yourself start to finish? I'll be undertaking this some time in the next few weekends. It's 109 degrees here in northern California and my evaporator gave up... I'd rather spend my weekend in my garage than the $2,000 I was quoted on a car I paid $3,500 for.

Thank you for this.

What tune if any do you need to keep the engine light from coming on ?

Thanks for the detailed video. As a bit of criticism you asked for, for a bit more detail when working around the dme's and downpipe location, a ton of work was done removing nuts bolts etc, so a different camera angle showing you working there would really top it off. Thanks again though enjoyed watching this 😊
