Part 3 !!!

Not sure about the pyro fuse (Sbk) if that would have gone off there would be no dash lights as they are supplied by terminal 30 . Id say that there is an issue with the key being initialised to the car although they come pre programmed to the car they sometimes are a bit funny when trying to start first time . Try holding it up to the ring antenna on the right side of the steering column and try starting it also to see if the key is programmed to the car the central locking should work

Just subscribed it looks like an interesting video,if you go into the centre display and get up vehicle status it will show if the oil level is ok also when you change the oil have a look inside the oil filter element to see if theirs any metallic bits in there it tells you if the bearings are likely to be wearing,I don’t think that crash can be that far out and if it is which side is out could be both buy a body jack and give it a shove their only cheap off eBay,looking forward to next vid 🎉

Hi mate enjoying your vids. Done this myself years ago. Recommend (next time) winding the driveshaft but on a bit first and hitting that, or using a punch and hammer, or puller to separate the driveshaft from the hub 👍🏼Looking forward to the next m140 video, probably pyro fuse near battery.

Much love from Sweden. Im also starting a series to rebuild my damaged GTI. Keep it up!

Nicely done - thanks and have a great Xmas ❤

Front crash bar is on the wrong way around tow hook should be on the rh side

You should have just bought a trickle charger and left the battery connected.

I would check pyro fuse. Located in on the battery positive terminal

100% pyro fuse assuming it doesn't have ghost. You can temporarily follow the positive cable down to the junction box, undo the positive cable from the junction box and you should be able to bypass the fuse by attaching the positive cable to the other side of the pyro fuse taking that out of the circuit. Car will start after doing this. Its a safety device which cuts off the power to the engine in the event of a crash. its a simple fix and doesn't cost a lot. Don't search for a bow M140i specific fuse as it will more than likely be the same as 116i but cost more. Just search for the part number and you should have a range of options. Also, I appreciate you making a video in the cold and rain! Thank you!

Pyro fuse on positive side of battery terminal blown, it is located within the battery positive terminal. You can temporarily push it back into place or just change the positive battery cable lead to a unblown used genuine or new terminal.

Just a suggestion replace the hood hinges as well cause I've seen a good few videos of people replacing just the hood and then having panel gap issues cause the hinges bent with the hood

Pyrofuse? or a Ghost Immobiliser?

Another solid video, Mick. Just straight to the point with everything! We specifically produce LEDs for auto. Can we invite you as a collaborator to do a review? We've emailed for an inquiry

That Pulley is a water pump and yes you will need to change the hole unit

Glad to see you back mate, good project, that ali pipe with the kinked hose looks bent to me next to waterpump, i thought the chassis ends were called crash cans , ratchet strap that drivers top were the radpac bolts to it looks bent back some. dont keep us waiting haha

looks pretty straight forward repair

Looks like water pump not a pulley

Good luck with it, going to be interesting.

its been looked after?? it was owned by a boy racer.. so has had a hard life IMO sorry, but good luck with the rebuild, they're a fun car to drive

oh dear, this wasnt pleasant to watch, try gaining a little knowledge of what your doing before you jump in

Enjoyed this! Bull horns are called chassis end legs and that hose is kinked because it's not correctly fitted. You can see there's a gap where it has slipped off slightly. Other than that, Take my sub!

New subscriber - looking forward to watching the progress.

New subscriber great vi

Done this a few times haha

Those chase legs has 3bolts

loved it, thanks for the vid mate

Auto box better

I will show my support to you as I do this as well but I'm not doing the cams but I wish you all be best and you get were your going

I’ve been thinking getting one nice cars

As a professional car painter since 2010, in general if you drop something, it helps to then not drop it instead. But seriously, just mount it onto something that stands on itself.

I used to own this exact car. Bought back in 2015. Great to see its still about and getting some love! Excellent work. 👍👍

Ey we live and learn pal 😂

Strength and determination 💪

Very nice job! Congratulations! I was curious to know how much you spent on rebuilding this one

Thumbnail wat a moron

Enjoyed that Mikey.

Whats the advantage? I couldn't here you say what the advantage is over the music drowning everything out

Alright mick your old mate stanley here enjoying the content,, it doesn't surprise me that the pair of us has both ended up working on cars ps remember your go kart 😂 # good times

CV joints are one of the dirtiest jobs you can do on a car but give the most satisfaction when done.

Nice work man, nightmare with that shaft bolt. I have been finding lately a good combo of pd90 spray from amazon and some heat before trying to remove anything. Stuffs mega rusty up here west scotland... 😂

I miss that sound. Regretted selling the vr6's ive owned.

I've got 2 mk3 golf vr6s plus many other projects I know the feeling working full time and trying to do projects on the side I always look for videos on mk3s to motivate me 😂😂 so thanks for sharing im not the only one who has to take a break from it a 2 month plan has turned Into a year now I've broken 3 vr6s to build one so if you need any spares let me know happy to donate to another vr6 build

Beast. Like you say they dont make em like the used to.

Been waiting on this didn't think you'll be back with some vr work👌👌💯

Great job! I’m half tempted to have a go at this on my VR6. Never done it before, but ‘learn by doing’ and all that jazz! What air sprayer did you use?

really enjoyed this, thanks for doing it from a home mechanic POV

Boss that man! Well done looking forward to the next one! 🤜🏼

McLaren 😅

Thats a strong accent. Shout out to mc stretch and the makina crew 😂
