Bringing My BROKEN $5900 V10 Supercar BMW BACK TO LIFE!

[@3n3ly7m9]

Whelp you really only have 1 problem left to fix which is rod bearings, the trans are pretty bullet proof on them, just make sure when you are doing bearings and have the engine out, that you do all the "while your in there" replacements of seals and what not, should have a pretty darn reliable M6 for the next 100k miles.

It is really encouraging to watch videos like this,for someone like me with a 20 Y.O. x5 v6 which I really want to make the best out of it, you are giving the right push to keep doing at it Thnx Ayman from Kuwait

[@Veryrarevryan]

Just found this channel, it feels so authentic how expressive you are. Reminds me of bs with the homies while working on our whips 😂 . You’re real asf I respect that

[@aymaneoubad5057]

It's a cool and underrated car. If I were you I would definitely give it a manual swap, because rowing through the gears in a V10 powered cruiser is pure magic! Thank you for sharing, and cheers!

[@Marin-i1v]

its not even a real swap, rather a conversion

[@JStryker7]

I would see if there’s another transmission that can mate. The manual isn’t ideal and the smg isn’t fast enough

[@Marin-i1v]

@@JStryker7 well you can adapt anything also newer bmw dcts but you need a free programmable tcu

You guys are making content on another level for the size of the channel and i am really happy that i found it. Glad to be a subscriber

[@EX3M1NR]

So mate in my person experience, I’ve had the regulator on the back of the alternater go and that throughs up a transmission code as well, so it might also be worth changing as some preventative maintenance, the main tell for it is if the voltage spikes when driving you can tell this with a standard code reader but I figure your in need of some helpful advice good luck on the build can’t wait to see the next episode 👍🏻❤️

[@EDITz_OFF]

I also really like the idea of restoring cars as it avoids waste!!

[@averyc7492]

A couple things for anyone else wanting to tackle a similar project. Always replace your clutch pivot pin with a stainless pivot pin, it'll last way longer than the plastic one. Additionally, the exhaust clamp is free floating on one header from the manufacturer, it's the same way on my e46 and e90 m3's. The exhaust is sealed with the conical exhaust gasket

[@The_North0]

No! Stainless pivot pin doesn’t last longer. Plastic works way better. Stainless will be smashed by the strong force of smg

[@averyc7492]

@ I doubt that, haven’t ever seen that. I’ve seen that happen with brass pivot pins though

[@Alexpazaroni]

There's just something so funny about you guys dropping F bombs in your videos; maybe it makes things more authentic, idk but i love it.

[@skip741x3]

A youtube mechanic that actually has grease on his hands! way to go bro! I always laugh at some other, we wont mention names, youtube "mechanics" who do repair vids while having immaculately clean hands and no a spec of grease on them to be seen..yeah right!

[@rif75017]

Do not forget do change the gearbox oil and the smg hydraulic fluic as well and then you should be good. Some persons had some syncro issues because of the lack of oil change on the gearbox...

[@briannguyen9217]

Love seeing a machine like this come back to life!

[@Ev-qq1kq]

Let’s go boys!!! You guys can do anything! I am working on a e46 now and needed this!

[@ReMaQs]

I think better put zf-8hp-76 and forgot about smg headache)

[@bradley328]

Incredible. Cant wait until this build is finished

[@The_North0]

The exhaust clamp is how it comes from the factory. No point in welding it. I have e60 m5 with 180,000 miles

[@Jay-May]

Glad to see another BMW brought back to life! I have a 66' 2000ti that I'm working on and that's been taking years but in the end it will be worth it.

[@solo-den5090]

You guys are amazing. Keep us updated on the m6. Make videos on the m6 often!

[@MrAdy993]

M539 Restauration has a full series on rebuilding a S85 so you could have a look over it in case you need a heads up👌🤙

[@markec610]

Congrats on fixing it!!

[@Sultan-bm7ey]

Good luck with the rod bearing job, I’m impressed you guys got the car moving again nice job, I see it also uses a similar adaptation system like I use for my e46 m3 smg

[@RMJJ91]

You might wanna keep tabs on the fuel pump. I’ve heard they are notorious to die if the fuel level is below 25%. Apparently the fuel cools and/or lubricates the pump.

[@Aquineas]

Nice job on the transmission! As for the last question, how does it sound... yeah, about that....

[@cyanrecker8508]

Nice content superb, If I was upgrading I will update the car like the lights fenders bumpers front and rear body to the latest possible M6 configuration. And yeah will tune it 😊 Keep going 🎉❤

[@takummie]

I don’t think that exhaust bracket is a factory defect. I also own a M6 and mine is Japanese (well I am Japanese and I live in Japan), it also has the exact same design. One flange is not welded and comes right off. I was also surprised and I still don’t know why. But it can’t happen randomly to both your car and my car, in two different markets

[@bigman7083]

He f*cked up welding that flange 🤦‍♂ , it's a factory feature on most BMW M cars and it's sealed with a gasket. It's to prevent issues with expanding and flexing from heat.
