DIY for REAR SHOCK ABSORTERS - 160 tkm SERVICE - BMW F20 engine N13

DIY for REAR SHOCK ABSORTERS - 160 tkm SERVICE - BMW F20 engine N13
#RearShockAbsorters #160tkmService #BMWF20 #BMWN13
- As in the previous episodes, I do a 160 tkm service for my BMW F20 car
- It's time to replace the new rear shock absorbers
- Last winter, the shock absorbers froze whenever there was frost
- And this caused a shock to the rear of the car, even if it drove a slight unevenness on the road
- Remove camber arm cover
- Remove the shock absorber lower bolt first.
- Note direction of insertion of screw
- Release screws on support bearing
- Press shock absorber together and remove upward from wheel arch
- See how slow the shock absorber returns!
- Remove protective cap and check sealing washer for any damage
- Release nut. If possible, use the BMW Special Tools 2 355 965 and 2 355 966
- I personally use the impact tool
- Using an impact machine is a risk of damage inside the shock absorber!
- Especially during the tightening phase, make sure that the shock absorber does not rotate
- These are worth changing at 160 tkm!
- Let's see how the new one has to move
- Be careful not to allow the shock absorber to rotate!
- Insert protective cap
- Next, the shock absorber is back in place
- Replace screw and nut. Note direction of insertion of screw

My purpose is to encourage people to do things themselves!
Plus, this is a nice hobby for myself and at the same time I have the opportunity to save a lot of money by doing all the maintenance myself!
I’m not a professional with cars or motorcycles, I just want to learn how to do things myself.
If you do this service yourself, always check the correct instructions in the official service manuals. This is just my way of doing it!

The lower bolt should be tightened at rideheight. That's preventing the lower shock bushing from twisting.

[@stRing-Agenda]

Great tutoriatl, thanks. I hope I will use it soon. Do you plan to make a film about front absorbers as well?

[@jacobschetelig5449]

Hey, great video! Do you know by any chance what size the nuts that connect the top of the shock absorber to the mount are?

[@freedom14639]

Hey great video. Does it matter if one shock is oil pressure and the other gas?

[@Hannnnnzi]

Great video❤ where can I find all the torque info for front and rear suspension?

[@simonh870]

Good video, I would be tempted to add a small amount of gasket sealant around the top mount before fitting as it will help prevent future ingress. Or ideally replace the gaskets...

[@Chico1203]

You have list of oem please? and you not change the spring?

[@peterl9436]

what is the name if that light/lamp that you are using? which milwaukee M12 is it, please? Thanks

[@andriusst.3572]

Hello, I am thinking of installing this variant in a standard chassis, the plans may include lower springs. BILSTEIN 19-218014. maybe they are shorter than the standard shock absorber?

[@markhanson3245]

What sockets are used to remove the bolts?

[@l33lvr]

Can this be done without using a vice?

[@Andydf32]

Great video. What is the 90 degree tighten at the end , is this tighten to 100nm plus 90 degrees ?

[@MA-jk2yc]

I have got the same question. Dont understand the 90gr

[@glennmckie1813]

Yes it will be, tighten to nm then further 90°

[@SuperBasshunters]

Why didn't you replace the top shock mount? They make noises even below 100,000 km mileage.

[@JaniVoutilainen]

What in that part can keep noices? At least nothing comes to mind. I don't think there are any moving parts in it?

[@SuperBasshunters]

@@JaniVoutilainen I did not have this part in my hand, but in this car several people were looking for the reason for the quiet knocking and that was the solution

[@Vricko89]

@@SuperBasshunters yep, I changed the whole set shocks and mounts at 170kkm. And now when its cold weather there is soft knocking at rear. But only when cold. Will check this out and see what is happening

[@lgdelgado]

Great video @JaniVoutilainen! Thank you. I'm having this metallic noise coming from rear wheel, I suspect the strut or strut mount... can someone please advise if top strut mounts can originate this kind of noise? Thanks. Example of noise in the video below: kzbin.info2iSR4c6-pW0?si=nEySyeVHb0qTbp51

Саленблок на амортизаторе долго ходить не будет не правильная установка ….. нижнюю гайку нужно затягивать когда подвеска находиться в рабочем положении!
