BMW M57 Installing The Cylinder Head + Big End Bearings

[@PadmaDorjee]

I love your accent and the way you teach. I don't have an M57 but I aspire to swap one into an 80 Series Landcruiser one day. If I do, I would like to hire your services for advice. THANK YOU for inspiring us people who could never normally dream of such a thing 🙏🏽

Your video really helps. I’m about to assemble my motor after a tear down.

[@e55v86]

Watching the video now, drinking tea, quality time. Very good and informative as always

[@crank3646]

Sounds cozy :)

[@kumarvikas7477]

Very instructive vidéo thank you !

[@larachannel-vj6pk]

Great video! Can u show how to use that paper to check the clearance? Thank you!

[@jamesemmeneckersr.1875]

I have a 142,000 miles. My head gasket blew. Can it be repaired ? it still runs great. How far ? Timing Chains?

[@глебкарионов]

Hey! very complete and excellent review for beginners and not only!

[@robertedge6144]

Hi great content love watching Im rebuilding an m57 335d 2012 with Aliminium block would the torque setting be the same for the cylinder head and the con rods bolts as the videos you have done on theses engine’s?

[@aqib2000]

Did you fix the Leak with lapping paste? What grade compound! How did you decarbon the intake

[@rolandasvisockis9270]

hello interesting video it really maybe can tell you how much tightening crank motor m57 tue2 what tightening force and how many degrees? thanks

[@jozefcuha4372]

Briliant job.

Can you please tell me the kolbenschmidt part number for the rod bearings? Thank you!

[@rodixd9341]

mn dobri videa brat👌

[@NENTECHM57]

Im in process of assembling my own m57tu2 engine after failure of valve guides/seals. Did you check yours as they are known to wear on exhaust side. My engine done 130k and was fully serviced on time. Great videos by the way👍

[@crank3646]

The machine shop have checked them, they were all fine. Really rarely we encounter problems with the valve guides on this engines, but I guess is not impossible

[@dan8789]

Do you not recommend to use any copper gasket spray or permatex gasket seal on the head gasket?

[@y8rd]

never use anything. just super clean area

[@Daryl15skydiver]

How much time or miles or kilometres IS the lifespan of the M57 main bearings...

[@waynehick]

How many hours did this rebuild take?

[@r700jdk2]

Hi Crack I’m in need of help! I’m rebuilding a n57d30a I’ve the crack and con rods in with new TDC bearings but as I’m turning the crack with all 6 pistons in it’s spinning free but then get tight in certain places. Is this normal or not thanks

Crank sorry nothing to do with this video but does ista d have a graphing mode ? thanks rob..

[@crank3646]

No Ista D doesn't have that. This is the reason that I rarely use it ( + it is much slower, to connect it to the car )

[@mushtaqali274]

Good video would like to know if there is a way you could check the engine block if it’s straight or not any video please thanks

[@crank3646]

Just watch my older videos, I have a video about that

[@robertmobileman8304]

nice one , do you know if its possible to replace valve stems seals on bmw 116i f20 ?witout taking the head off ,use valve tool instead / thanks rob

[@crank3646]

It should be possible. I don't see any reason for removing the cylinder head

[@hansdnz4200]

On a different website i founda that torque spec is 50nm +120”+120” which one is the right one?

[@georgiarnaudov6589]

On the ista+ engine M57T2 / TOP and the 635d is exactly like that, the degrees of turning are 2x120 degrees !!!

[@valterslesnicenoks9639]

2x90° is for cast iron block 2x120° is for aluminium block. Elring is writing same spec for both gaskets but that is wrong

[@Da3m0na]

Another awesome video. I have 2 melted pistons, is it ok to replace just the 2 pistons from 2nd hand engine? And is it ok to use my rods? Thanks.

[@crank3646]

Yes it is ok, to use second hand piston, AS LONG as they are the same as yours. M47 and M57 have different pistons from year to year, you need to be extra careful when purchasing them. Most of the time, people are selling the pistons with the rods, so if it was me, for several more euros I was going to replace them.

[@tomasss1995]

Hello CRANK, I have one question for you, how much torque I should have use to tighten up oil pump screws which are located around timing gear?

[@g.g4816]

Find it on internet

[@kevintyler7614]

What is torque for 6 forward Allen bolts? Thx

Hi bro I dont understand one thing, The head gasket which was in the engine was 2 hole type and you have resurfaced the head and you still bought the same 2 holes type gasket, i dont understand this point

[@fabini14]

You only need to change the headgasket is you resurfaced the block, head does not made any diferecence.

[@stefanvalchev8066]

@@fabini14 he said in the video that makes difference .listen carefully

[@fabini14]

@@stefanvalchev8066 Resurface the head makes no diference, i have assembled many m57 heads always with the same number of holes, bmw manual says that gasket is for piston protrusion nothing to do with head, just piston protrusion. So if nothing is changed on the block you will always use the same type of gasket.

[@cudalba]

Stop giving advices, you only change the head gasket if you take to much from the cilinder head, I did the same, because I take very very little from the head gasket I didn’t change the head gasket

No torque spec on the oil sprayer for pistons

[@ivailo1993]

Its not ok to stop turning the torq wrench before it clicks when you stop and go again the force of the friction goes up and the torq wrench gets tricked its a lesson learned the hard way just sharing experience.😅
