I want to order a race chip for my 2015 535i xdrive, but they want to know what manifold pressure sensor I have, n54 or n55. Great video!! Just bought my first bimmer!! I love it!!

[@joeyng919]

Which are stock? I see both NGK and Bosch being purchased. If Bosch, which part number?

[@AsifLicious]

My Indy shop wanted $550 to do my coil pack, of which 70 was labor. I just bought the coils from the link you provided for 180 and I'm going to put them in myself. Thank you for this.

[@BMWFanatic]

asif naseri wow, yep! Just change out diy - I have the video of that diy in this description box above

[@AsifLicious]

BMW Fanatic you think you could make a video on how to replace vanos solenoids? Mine are going out and I've already had them cleaned. I have the solenoids sitting at home and I want to replace them at the same time I do my coils. If you could post a video on how to diy those, I'd really appreciate it! Also boost solenoids if you know how to do those, but mainly the vanos solenoids

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

550?! I would never use them for anything again.

[@chaichang7578]

What spark plug to replace old one on a 2012 n55 135i??

[@i_read_bad_reviews]

Chai Chang modded? One step colder ngk plugs .

[@alexboucher2201]

Don't own a 335i YET but I love to learn and your channel had been great! Where's the notification squad?

[@jasonjinx]

he speaks the truth. just installed jb4 right off the bat cylinder 3 hard misfire with shaky car. i am now replacing all coils and plugs

[@joem7023]

I’ve been watching your videos since you started pretty much. I’m glad to see you’re finally getting the views and subs you deserve, your videos have been extremely helpful in my 3 year ownership of my 2008 bmw 335i and now I am finally planing on tuning my car with JB4 and am currently going threw and doing all the preventative stuff first! Thanks for everything.

[@jwallace410]

Just wanted to say I've been watching your videos for the past 4 months leading up to buying my first 2011 335i e93, and I am glad that your videos are out here, because I've learned alot. Watching this 4 days after my purchase to learn about the first preventative maintenance measures to do upon purchase and tuning. Thanks again!

[@BMWFanatic]

+jwallace410 Awesome! Thanks for watching!

[@scottxp800]

Two thumbs up on coils and spark plugs. 12.097 @ 118.79 mph with an E50 tune from Wedgeperformance....131,000 miles.

[@anx1300c]

You should be well into the 11's with 119 mph worth of trap speed. Get some traction.

[@SimplyCarThings]

Will definitely be swapping out my coil packs before getting a tune! Nice vid! I think it should clear up 95% of peoples questions when they run into problems with a tune.

[@BMWFanatic]

Simply Car Things Exactly so!

[@robertogomez8100]

Hi, greetings from Mexico City and thanks for your videos, just one advice try to shot from the front of your garage that way you get more light because it's a little dark cause of the back light efect. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR VIDEOS.

[@JamesLyles]

**SUBBED** Great job. I am new to N54 tuning though I have tuned and upgraded my Saabs, Volvos and Esprit Turbo. This is wise on any turbo car, Always do a Stage Zero upgrade first so you have a solid base for tuning.

[@finitovlogz7810]

Really good video! Sadly I did not see this before I got over excited for my mhd tune and started misfiring 🙁

[@sjbballrocks]

Thanks for the advice! Should I still replace them if my car is at 50,000 miles or do I time before I can replace them?

[@martynh5410]

I think new plugs and coil packs are a good idea for any Beemer with 90,000+ miles. I used bavauto high performance coils and car runs very well.

[@THECONDOR98]

I'm in this exact step! Thanks for the info

[@georfemeyer5664]

I went with the BMW high power plugs and haven’t mis fired since Just shared this channel with a buddy who needs PMCS his 135 Best data base for N54 maintenance

[@nox_chan]

I don't regret buying my 08 328i because I love driving it, but after watching your videos I feel like there is so much more potential from the 335s

[@iBeaTsCinema]

Tomas Valdez def is, 328 are a good starter bimmer but 335i is where the power comes in

[@GarageNineteen]

DUDE, love the videos, i have a question; do you need to do a tune if you install charge pipe, charge pipe with BOV, or if you change out your intake for say the BMS N55 blue intake? Is the tune required, or can i run it without the tune? and lastly, can the JB4 (when i choose to get it) do the tuning for it myself or must I pay for each tune I do to my 2011 BMW N55? Thank you so much, keep up the vids bro.

[@cfoote2667]

Thanks a lot for this video. I have a X6 with the N55 and since the Dinan tune, I get some hesitation (perhaps a misfire?) under moderate throttle or higher. Light throttle is OK. No check engine light. Would there be stored codes for misfires?

[@johnm9662]

great videos , sharing your videos with the UK N54 owner's club

[@BMWFanatic]

LND Life sweet man 👍🏻

[@winstonmiller8150]

Good info. I didn't know about BMW moving to the Eldor coil packs.

[@BMWFanatic]

Winston Miller Yep!

[@Audioholics]

Great video! I have a 2015 M235i with 10.5k miles. Do I still need to change my spark plugs and coil packs if I do a modest boost 3psi using the JB+ from Burger?

[@popokman]

Audioholics no

[@DavidThomas-bb2gl]

well said all the truth great vid

[@aaronpederson7910]

I boosted first and within a month I had to replace the coils and plugs. Lucky for me my local Autozone had all the parts AND the guy behind the counter installed ALL OF IT right in the parking lot. Shout out to Autozone!!

[@jskallingtin]

Haha good joke

[@992MAGNUM]

Thanks man! Subscribed !

[@TheNoobComment]

subscribed. very informative. and thanks for links. keep up the good work!

[@BMWFanatic]

+TheNoobComment thanks for joining 👍🏻

[@hunterrush613]

Would I need to upgrade Spark plugs, injectors, coil packs, and my charge pipe to run the JB+ on stock turbos? It only would add at most 4 psi

[@Capecodkiller]

The other thing I would say is also change the Air filter to a K&N around $55. Or cold air intake. But just changing the filter I noticed a difference in the exhaust sounds (Msport Exhaust). extra air flow never hurts.

[@adamjiwani]

bmw 335i 2009 69,000 miles on it and i want to use my access port this week but i want your assurance if i should do this or not.

[@magnusnielsen2648]

[@allenodisho]

My charge pipe broke off too from getting too much boost on my jb4.

[@mtbandoutdoorfunwej2771]

I have 2014 X6 xdrive 35i E71 N55 Do we need to pay for unlock first and then tune? Any quick tips? Ty for informative video

[@mindbodyandsoul604]

hey bud im having turbo leaks on my 07 335i coupe im gonna replace the turbos i was looking into rotomaster turbos do you think there ok quality ?

[@ImWaffleBot]

I recently bought a 2010 335i with 90k miles. It was owned by an older lady in her 50's and did all her maintenance at the BMW dealer. Looking at the carfax, the coilpacks have never been replaced and the coils you linked are on sale at the moment for a pretty big decrease from their original price. I don't know if that price is always like that, but it seems like a nice deal. I'm looking to do some bolt-on upgrades (downpipes, intercooler, intake, etc) so would it be worth it to just buy these packs and replace the old ones, since it's at a nice price? Thanks!

[@soldierviejo8224]

Also make sure you get an aftermarket Chargepipe and FMIC as well as either a BOV or aftermarket Diverter Valve.

[@BlacksterVFX]

In my opinion the chargepipe would be more critical than the coil packs.

[@stevesas632]

I've heard this as well. I'm a new owner of a 1m here in UK. Is it true it's a good idea to upgrade the oem plastic charge pipe to a metal one, even if car is stock?

[@kennypowers4330]

Steve SAS yes, huge weak point on the n54. I would get a blow off valve and replace you oem diverter valves as well if you plan on making power. Sounds nice as well.

[@stevesas632]

@@kennypowers4330 not planning on tuning. I think a 1M is too special to mess with, & will be worth more left as stock. Just wondered if the metal charge pipe was still worth doing if oem one is weak.

[@kennypowers4330]

Steve SAS also depends on how you drive your car too I guess, it’s a plastic piece next to the engine so over time if the car is driven it will break, I’ve read a bunch of people saying there charge pipe blew up on stock boost. It’s a cheap fix and looks/sounds cool and I see it more of preventative maintenance then a performance upgrade really. At least on your platform.

[@stevesas632]

@@kennypowers4330 Ok, I see you can get the upgraded charge pipes with or without a BOV opening. Any advantages of using a BOV over the oem diverter pipes?

[@vjeff55]

I have a 09 335ix I just changed the plugs with bosch , and coil packs from autozone. do you think I'm good to install a tuner?

[@rezzo_6fn659]

I bought a 550i xdrive and did a stage one tune by bootmod3. About two weeks later i sold it due to low compression in cylinder 4. Wind up being a battery and other things the mechanic said but he didn’t mention what other things they were. Wonder is this what he meant. Great video.

[@Scotford_Maconochie]

That 550i was a ticking timebomb ready to go off and leave you stranded on the road with that N63 V8 inherently full of problems.

[@mrp7150]

Sorry, only just purchased an e93 n54 and am lolling to tune. I've also read that you need to replace the plastic charge pipe to a metal one for higher boost pressures? Is that correct or is the standard one OK?

[@KiesMotorsports]

Good tips, tune it up!

[@CombatGearTester]

Kies Motorsports any recommend parts for a stage one tune on an n55? I’ve gotten a charge pipe and boost pipe I’m planning to Change my spark plugs my car is an 2016 n55 535 at 38,000 miles , I definitely don’t want to blow anything

[@mr.valentino2824]

As always, thank you for your videos and all the info that you provide. I just did my turbo upgrade and running jb4 map 5. But as boost rise, I'm getting a engine symbol in the center of the gauge cluster. Code reads 3100 low boost engaged. Would this have to do with the spark plugs? The car drives fine, it's not shaking or anything like I hear some people say there's do. I also have to add, I ran the car on map 2 and got the same code but then tried map 5 and all was ok until today, I added some E85 and now I'm getting this code on map 5 as well.

[@BMWFanatic]

Ariano Robb Could be wastgates, vacuum lines, or other related boost leaks. I would check vacuum lines and all hoses, Intercooler, etc first

[@mr.valentino2824]

BMW Fanatic Ok, I'll look into that. Thanks again.

[@demorippa]

As a person who lives in the Caribbean in a country with no BMW licensed dealer.....should I buy a 335i pre-tuned from England and do the rest myself.....and what is the best scan tool to buy with the car

[@rabbitmartinez4456]

Both spark plugs and coils . Thanks for the reply

[@BMWFanatic]

rabbit Martinez plugs no, coils yes

[@robfsociety4670]

This is a great video but proven differently for the Fxx series N55. For Fxx series tuning you definitely get better results with NGK N20 plugs.

[@dannyisrael-cy6hb]

Eldor are great I even got them in my 750li

[@ctresp]

Great timing, just about to tune my 2010 e92 and just replaced the plugs and coils (went Delphi cause I hadn't seen this video yet). Q: How many miles do your plugs/coils typically last on your car? Do you always have to change both at the same time?

[@9tailednaruto]

if stock: plugs every 45k coils every 60k (i think)

[@ctresp]

Theodore Lauder I have a Cobb tune. Noting else. I would think that shortens the change intervals

[@BMWFanatic]

Christopher Tresp Tuned its 15k Miles - coils can go a lot longer than that, but majority of people jumping on this platform most likely have older plugs from a previous owner or just the mileage and they could be originals. Stock 45k Miles for the change

[@tytlyf]

Yep, people say if you're tuned you want to change the plugs every 20-30k miles.

[@BMWFanatic]

tytlyf I've been doing mine around the 15-18k mile mark and do it the same month each year. Just a routine that I do 😀

[@SuperManley1]

Couldn't agree more. I use Ignition Projects plasma coils, NGK sparks and it made a HUGE difference.

[@dryicedistrict]

SuperManley1 what gap are u having on the sparks?

[@SuperManley1]

0.022

[@BMWI-gk9wh]

I watch your videos because I have a n55 n51 n52. I would like to see a better presentation during the video, for example better lighting and camera angle closer, less in car noise closer up video ect. More garage close up clean quality. Good job.

[@Jfitness01]

Would Bosch coils be okay for 14-16psi of boost or is that pushing it?

[@chettalks9844]

I have a 2013 135is N55 and I am the 3 owner. I think it has a tune on it because it has VRSF Intercooler, charge pipe and BMS intake and I think it has more burbles than a previous 135is I had in the past. How can I determine if it has a tune on it and what it might be. Thanks.

[@kevinnguyen1475]

Hey bud does your replacement parts applies to the 2015 m235i?

[@funkyboogiee]

i have a 2013 x5 n55 engine and got the car last summer. at 85k miles now. had misfire last sunday and after getting the socket tool and researching i finally got the spark plugs replaced w/ the bosch plugs it came with. i replaced ONE Delphi coil that had burn marks on it and still gave me. misfire after plugs. now it;s back to normal again. i didn't have a torque wrench. thinking about replacing all the coils and when i do resetting the plugs with the torque wrench. gonna clean the MAF filter tomorrow, but things are running well again. my first BMW and I'm learning as I go. What else can be done to "tune" an N55 ?

[@MusicyOfficial]

Nice channel

[@josephbeltramini5442]

Which tune do you like? I don’t want to buy an Android unit, so I’m leaning toward a JB4.

[@Chris-oz7ix]

What if I got a check engine light on for camshaft correlation can I still tune?

[@supremelordgodking1226]

Heres a tip, if you do get a bad coil pack, its on extended warranty til 115k miles or before 10 years of the life of the car i believe. I got mine done for free except for 1 which was like 800 bucks but i got it paid back by bmw corp

[@jackstokes5970]

What stage tune do you now have on your 335i?

[@paullevin9760]

I notice that nobody is mentioning the DINAN tune. Since they warranty the engine with their product are they immune to these problems?

[@zooyork8426]

good info. did you upgrade your waste gates yet. I am looking into getting the upgrade from turbolab

[@BMWFanatic]

Corey Williams originals with 147k Miles

[@zooyork8426]

oh wow ok that's great with the 18lbs too. I was going to get my turbos remand and upgraded I am looking to be in the 600hp to the crank. I have a jb4. and intake on. I have meth kit with Prometheus direct port injection, fmic, downpipes, electric cutouts, and chargepipe

[@BMWFanatic]

Corey Williams nice, man!

[@koolkiddd760]

How often do you recommend throwing in new spark plugs and coil packs when you're on JB4?

[@BMWFanatic]

2snayls 15k Miles tuned and then coils much longer (especially Eldor). When I had Bosch coils they went out each year. Usually when the people are buying the car they will probably come with old Bosch ones or you'll get lucky and someone maintained it like crazy

[@megaman_world1347]

Don't forget about walnut blasting as well if needed!

[@BMWFanatic]

Megaman_World Yep - very much so! I've spoke about the topic before, but I have it planned to come back again 😀

[@MhmdKh]

there's not walnut blasting where i live, is there any alternative ?

[@BMWFanatic]

Mhmd Kh Buy the Bav Auto kit like I did and DIY - $250

[@DvdOwens]

Where can I find the Bav Auto Kit?

[@Bad_m340i]

my local mechanic charges $250 and does an amazing job! bmw charges $1200. dont ever go with them

[@antoniocampos6627]

Big thing is with any tune is always change out your charge pipe. Eventually it will blow (as mine did) get rid of the plastic one and get one made out of aluminum.

[@iAmNaStY4290]

curious...are you sure the eldor cools work for n55 motor...i checked real oem to cross reference the part number and that specific brand plug only comes up for n54 motors delphi is the only coil that comes up as updated for n55 motors...maybe you can assist me with this

[@chaichang7578]

Should I put ngk iridium on my n55 135i?

[@earlraskey5928]

[@inline6twinturbo545]

Do you have a newer charge pipe ?

[@denisv1967]

[@BMWFanatic]

Denis Vachon Eldor is great, man!

[@EC88838]

What boost level is safe? I have an mppk and added jb+. Otherwise stock. The mppk already adds 2 psi so I am not sure if dialing back the jb+ makes sense.

[@BMWFanatic]

+Eric C You can max those out and it will still be safe Boost levels

[@g20_alvarez]

Great info, totally forgot about changing the coil packs, I got the Bosch OE replacement spark plugs (ZGR6STEZ) are those any good?

[@BMWFanatic]

A. Alvarez I tested them and they are a little different vs. the BMW OE plugs. I never had an issue with the regular Bosch ones, but I'm doing it for my piece of mine (and especially since they are different a little). The electrode is a different shape between the two, so it's not "exactly" the same part of you catch my drift

[@samluu3708]

BM

[@JoeAaronB]

give the air filter and tbody a cleaning as well ur right there and o a reset if u have the software otherwise the throttle cleaning will make it run like shi . aso any n54s that arent 8 yars old or have less thna8 0k mw is rplacing them for warranty finally b/c of the wastegate rattle

how much power the car gain doing this ???

[@sdgsdgsdg54]

Hi there. I'm planning to buy used m235i next year. I gonna track it (4 sessions a month max). I don't think i will tune its engine, 326hp is more than enough for me. Could you tell me is stock cooling system in m235 enough for light track sessions? Does ZF overheat? Oil? Engine water? Intake air? I saw how they track m235 racing car, does it have the same coolers as the stock m235? Thank you.

[@sdgsdgsdg54]

One more question. Have you heard about m235 xdrive overheating on track? I'm from Russia, awd is a must here, but i still wanna track it. I heard that 2012 m135 xi had awd overheating problem. what about m235?

[@theburias]

Google has your answer

[@neoFuzz1]

I've been told that there are issues with the water pump on the N54 when you tune it? Is this true and does it apply to the N55? Thanks :)

[@x8xSTUNGUNx8x]

my SES light came on then my car started sputtering then the the light turned off and everything went back to normal. I took it to autozone to get it scanned and 2 codes popped up one was a miss fire in the 3rd cylinder and another code was p142e. Do you know what that code is?

[@jurzyjohner432]

You are so right about that pre maintenance and also thanks for that recommendation on that crank seal plate, the problem is i thanked you before and you just dont communicate with your subs.

[@tytlyf]

Hey! Where's your cowl filters? JK, I removed mine recently. Waste of money if not at the track. I replaced my coils/plugs a month ago with the same setup. Eldor's with OEM plugs with stock gap. I'm surprised you didn't include the chargepipe in your video. I'd say that's more important than plugs/coils. Intercooler too. The good thing is that all these parts are cheap! Well, that is if you install them yourself. Plugs/Coils/CP should be self installed.

[@BourbonInhibitions]

tytlyf charge pipe only needs to be upgraded if the OEM breaks. Total waste of money to upgrade it if you're just throwing a tune on.

[@BMWFanatic]

tytlyf Just sticking to the normal easy maintenance stuff - but ill do that video next. Cowl filters are gone since I have an upgrade coming 😀

[@tytlyf]

? Throwing a tune on is the only reason you need to upgrade the CP. It's more a safety measure versus performance. A tune will double the boost, the plastic CP is know to break even with stock boost.

[@amonero1]

This is why I'm leaving mine stock , too much hassle with tunes . I use it as daily and it's more than enough car already . Always have a spare coil tucked away though 👍🏾

[@mr.valentino2824]

[@zemekiel]

If you have misfires, you have a bad tune. I have run a stage 2 ESS custom tune for 70000+ kilometers, and I drive HARD on the Autobahn. Never had a misfire, never changed coil packs or plugs. Only thing I've had to change was the HPFP, one time. Get a proper ECU tune. that's the key. That way the tune have full access to all control systems and sensors and can adapt accordingly, unlike piggybacks.

[@BourbonInhibitions]

zemekiel how many miles are you at?

[@zemekiel]

I'm at 115000 km, so I guess about 71000 miles

[@BMWFanatic]

zemekiel Has nothing to do with a bad tune. If you misfire, it's either your plugs, coils, injectors, fuel pumps. You would start with the easiest thing first (after scanning it). Plus, you need to change out plugs every 15k miles.

[@zemekiel]

Right, I get it, you're the expert. So what you are saying is incorrectly changed ignition timing from a tune cannot cause misfires. Ok, this is good to know. I haven't changed plugs...

[@BMWFanatic]

zemekiel 15k mile plug changes when tuned or 45k mines if stock - change them out!

[@Nocturnal_Deity]

Someone told me that the jb4 is really hard on the ecu and was recommended Cobb plug and play (obd2 port) tune. Any thoughts anyone?

[@BMWFanatic]

+グール Cobb isn't supported anymore. JB4 is perfectly fine 😀

[@Nocturnal_Deity]

for the 2007 e90 335i?

[@kolaking80]

How can I tell if my 2015 has a n54 or n55 engine?

[@slptls]

2011+ have n55

[@christopherrangel1679]

Should I get a bmw 5 series?

[@BMWFanatic]

+Christopher Rangel which 5 series?

[@christopherrangel1679]

BMW Fanatic I was thinking like 535i of 550i but I don’t know if I should get a 5 series because it seems like there not really good cars since that’s what a lot of people say but at the same time I feel like should just do it because I feel like at the end it all about how you maintenance a car

[@rwa96]

The 535i has the n55 same as the 2, 3 and 4. the 550i has the n63 v8 and comes with a ton of problems, like timing chain stretch, injector failure, needing a new battery every oil change, etc. Google n63 customer care package. If you want a 550 look for a 2014 or newer that has the n63tu engine, it also has more hp and torque. You can run BMW vin numbers at bimmer.work/ I'm personally in the market for a 435 or 535 with the M sport package.
