Did u hade to code it

I notice my mahle filters (like your old orange one) had that big foam square block at the very entrance. It seems very restrictive. I was thinking about cutting that chunk off but wasn't sure it would seat. Your new one you've installed doesn't have that at all from factory and is flat all the way down the back. What are your thoughts on this?

@ballston how long did the job take you? Thanks for such a great video!!!

I have the same problem with mine I replace the coils and spark plug and still giving the p306 code

Thant you, sir, well done

Does injector need to be coded after replacement? Also are those de couplers the same as fuel injector o-rings?

*TOOL WONT FIT ON MY N55 ENGINE. ANYONE KNOW WHY?*

Good job cutting out how you cleared the ac line dipshit.

Hey, thank you for the great video. Has the blower come into contact with salt, or is the rust "just" from pure snow?

Great info! I just picked up one of these used. It’s a little rough, so I’ll definitely go through and inspect/replace these items as needed.

Was wondering didnt want to break one. Injector that is.

I appreciate the video.

These BMWs X5 have a runoff of water from the windshield that soaks into cylinder 5 & 6. It rusts both injectors at the back of the firewall. Both of mine are so siezed even with this proper tool both my heads broke clean off. You do not want to mess with this believe me I have spent $$$$ with no luck at removing them. You are a million times better off buying the injectors through Amazon and taking to BMW.

Hey what’s the name of the tool you used ?

Thank you for the simplicity and thorough explanation of things. This shop I visited wanted 1200€ (1287$usd) plus tax for the same job you did.

I used that tool but the head snapped off instead of injector coming out. Oh well.

Thank for diy upload 😊

My HS520 is much rustier than yours! I had to grind off the scraper bolts. Haven't tried the paddle screws yet. But I thought I should wire brush & paint some of the sheet metal before it gets too bad. But the auger is in the way for much of it. How easy is that to remove? Advice, anyone?

Is this a diary or a tutorial? At least you tried

Best tutorial on KZbin. You're exact and concise. I love that I don't have to listen to anything extra. Pro.

The belt on my X5 just felt off while I was doing 60 mile/hours on highway. I lost steering while my daughter was in the back seat. Luckily my farmer's instinct kicked in and I was able to steering the car off the highway by standing up from the driver seat and use the muscles on both of my arms and muscles on my waist and legs. BMW is POS. I will drive Toyota for the rest of my life.

What size belt did it need??? Got 2 belts from O'Reillys and 1 from bmw and their both wrong

You could put a little more of what actually has to take place in order for you to do this simple maintance in your video because you left alot out not sure if it's because you didn't re ird or because of how you did it and you just didn't want that to be seen. Waste of my time

Omg dude…u need to properly torque your lugs. No way that drill of yours produce at least 100lbft. Extreme road hazard.

I have the same problem. Do I need change the handle or just cut off the middle wire

Very helpful. A video on changing fuel/air filters seems to be missing on KZbin. (edit) After removing the top cover I can see that there are no external fuel and air filters on the machine. I bought an aftermarket set of parts that included them. I guess they'll go in the spare parts bin.

Awesome video straight to the point Very detailed

When you installed the injector, how could you tell it is fully seated?

For European vehicles there is one major cheap investment tool. “Tire Tree” This is exactly what it means….a threaded stud similar to the lug stud but without the lug attached. Makes it so you can slide the tire on the hub but maintains the position. You install about two trees one skip one space then the other one. Once it helps hold the tire in place you install three lug studs. After that unthread the two tire trees and replace with the remaining two lug studs….has saved my bacon many times and for only a few bucks should be a must have for any European vehicle maintenance….especially Tires.

Great Video......Thanks I might suggest wire brush, then rust converter spray and then some rustoleum paint on the rusty metal.

Good Job! Greeting from Watch Restoring Guy

How do the Textar epads work? Are they really quiet?

I was not as lucky as you with the bolts holding on the scraper bar. I tried for 2 days to get them off they were so rusted using liquid wrench. I was able to get one of the three off. The other 2 met my Milwaukee M18 grinder and came right off after that 😀. Mine is also 15 years old and needed a new belt and paddles. Just like yours my impact gun made short work of the bolts which where also in surprisingly good shape for their age. I think the impact gun is for sure recommended and I appreciate your video.

exact same with my e82.. hot ass door handle

Hey, I have a N55, 2015. My belt tensioner has play when the engine is running. is this normal?

Bottom plugs and hoses

How did you access the button

more info then alldata on the pin removal thank you!!!!

Question after replacing the injector do you have to calibrate the injector with a scanner or you don't have to

F10 n55 . 6cylinder ignition misfire . Help me

whatever you do... don't get a cheap tool. Get a good one! CTA tools makes a really good one. These cheapo units from ebay made from chinesium will bend and cylinder thread will give away... Also, follow BMW's torque specs when working with any bolts on the head. Its made out of aluminum. If you strip the threads by over-tightening, you will be in a world of pain.

Note to those with really stuck injectors, whose extractor like this did not work: Order a diesel injector extractor from Amazon for $25. The injector thread size is M12, so make sure it’s in your package.

Awesome video. Can’t find as good of a deal as you did on fcp euro though.

What was the mileage?

Hey what do you think is the source of water sitting near cyl 5 and 6? I recently replaced VCG and found quite a bit water (transparent thought it's water) sitting in that recess and a lot residue. The car was barely driven in the last yr. Btw did you end up changing that steel plug recess insert as well? (11127605104)

From 89k to 98k u had to change 6 problems in less than 10k. I bought an e70 07 and I had 4 major problems in 4 months🥶

I noticed you were only using a scissor jack. You should also have a floor jack snugged up against the frame incase of failure along with the wheel under the tire. Friend of a friend died by doing a quick break job. Wife and daughter came home to find his body.

throw some black rust-oleum on the belt cover, auger, side ect. will make it look A LOT better. Not sure why you said 10-15 years. Oil should be changed yearly or every 25 hours of use.

So much easier to change than the paddles on my Toro CCR.
