This is tough, I’ve never experienced this kind of issue but I would try to flush the evaporator casing a few times see if helps

Thanks. Yes sunroof has Ben working perfectly, I chose this option to keep the car OEM and was able to find a low mileage tray on OfferUp for cheep. Good luck on your car also love the emojis ✊🏼.

when you got to the part where you were in the engine bay, I thought the next scene was going to be "so I had to pull the engine out".

😂😂😂no, thank god

I don’t think so but don’t quote me on this

It is ok the same place, drivers side

Had to change the whole tray, Full video on the channel.

@@chaughtaihassanwich Channel?

Thanks 😒

If it’s not leaking anywhere in the engine bay then the only place that’s left is internal. I’ve noticed around 90 to hundred k miles it leaks for any car.

Changing out the evap

No I had a local body shop paint it for 50$

Yes sir all in one day my brother

I wish i could get ur contact info i am about to start the exact one right now i am sitting in it looking at your video lol

No problem, I try to help out as much as possible. From what I remember it was a really tight fit behind the hvap housing but what I would to do is take the top part of the dash and try different pick tools to just unclip it and leave the old one hanging there and just relocate the immobilizer in a new location. That seems like the easiest way to go about it. Hope that helps and thanks for watching.

@@chaughtaihassan That thought was running through my head, glad to see you think it might be possible too. Thank you very much.

😬yep

Yes I left the tape alone on the long price they are free moving parts so no need for them to stick. Only the last trims need to be stuck down.

Which ones?

I got them from eBay but I believe now they even sell on Amazon with fast shipping.

@@chaughtaihassan aliexpress too much cheaper if u can wait

Yea it’s better to tape the spring or it’s going to cause more damage until you replace the trims. Also if it’s left dangling and breaks when the top goes in and out you’ll have to change the whole convertible top metal hinges. It’s a pain so just prevent it.

Yea, year ago bmw was the only place to get them and they were ridiculously overpriced.

The short one, it acts like a guiding piece for the long one. When putting on the short piece make sure to clean the surface really good.

Yea mine weren’t the straightest either I believe to change the spring you have to change the whole arm and mess with the alignment for the roof so instead I used 2 needle nose pliers to straighten the springs out being careful not to break them. I noticed as long as they go in and clip you should be fine. The parts I ordered them from eBay, dealer quoted 1000 because they apparently don’t sell them individually any more. Only thing I would say is to align the trims before hand because once the 3m tape sticks and you remove it it’s not as sticky the second time. Easy job shouldn’t take no more than 15 minutes. Mind been one for a few months and still holding up perfect. GOOD LUCK.

@@chaughtaihassan i know man exactly what i heard, and i bought my car sight unseen, when it came i noticed both twins were missing. the 3m tape is only for the small piece right? not the one that attaches to the springs i assume.

Yes the the backs, the fronts are for the springs

@@chaughtaihassanhey man, how did you remove the rear trim that’s held with the tape. do i just pry on it with heat? also when i install the trim, which trim do i install first? because it looks like the rear trim has to clip into something

🤫

What ?

Yes, with a project this size it’s always safe to disconnect the battery in the case of the transit connect it was under the driver seat.

😢

Check the exhaust see if you can find the plastic bag stuck on it. If it smells like burning hair most of the time it’s something stuck on it. If not, change your cabin air filter that’s a overlooked item.

@@chaughtaihassan put new hepa cabin filter in myself but smell remains. Thanks for the response. I hope it's not what you had to do in your video that was alot of work

Had to take hepa filter out cause it was restricting air flow it seemed. Put new regular filter in got better air flow. Still dealing with smell. Got appt with an honest ac guy coming up

Any updates ? I’m curious to find out what it was that was causing that smell.

@@chaughtaihassan got back from a mechanic Monday he is saying it's a stink smell to spray where the ac comes in from outside with deodorizer. Says he doesn't smell freon or carbon monoxide. Smells like hair salon to me. Funny part is the other mechanic told me I have a freon leak.

Keeps you busy 💪🏻
