This is genuinely a very helpful video. Well documented and showing torque specs is helpful for people without quick access to that information. Well done guys.

Greetings awesome workmanship, any video on how to change engine and autotransmission mounts on bmw e60

[@autodocuk]

Unfortunately, we don't have any tutorials of replacing the engine and autotransmission mounts in the Bmw E60. But we have a lot of other videos of the Bmw E60 and they can be found here: kzbin.info/aero/PLWep5LzT0sxlpE0W2VePTJYKcP1HknmRp AUTODOC

Looks like useful to measure wheel centre to arch whilst on ground for bolt tightening or do you lift until car goes light on axle stands?

[@autodocuk]

Please clarify or rephrase your question. specify the time of the fragment in the video. AUTODOC

@@autodocuk 7:33, how far to jack up strut. I'm just about to replace wheel bearing on a Z4 E89.

[@SEllis-wd9nx]

I know this is two years old but for those that see this going forward. You can get the ride height and how to measure it online. Different measuring technique will offer different measurements. Such as top of fender arch to center of hub or top of wheel arch to bottom of rim with the wheel installed. While the vehicle is on stands you can set the ride height with a jack and access the bolts form under the car. Never lift a car so that it is light on the Jack stands unless you are removing it from the stands. This is dangerous especially if it's on four stands.

No need to preload the suspension before final torque of the control arms?

[@autodocuk]

Unfortunately, it is not possible to answer your question unambiguously, you can find out this information in the technical documentation for the repair of your car. AUTODOC

[@herobo123456]

He did

[@slurr4588]

7:30 - 7:40 he did preload the lower control arm

[@antoniocoerecuis24]

Very helpful

[@_jovian]

How annoying should we make the audio track on the video? Yes

[@babybenji808]

Will this be the same for 06 530i?

[@herobo123456]

ya why not

[@williwonkah.9242]

Great tutorial. But in real life when all the bolts are corroded and the strut is stuck, it's a barsteward of a job! Ask me, i did it today. 5 hours?

[@autodocuk]

Yes, you are absolutely right and we will definitely take this into account in our new videos. AUTODOC

[@herobo123456]

5 hours were u drinking lots of tea

[@mikes.garage]

A lots of torque specs are wrong

[@herobo123456]

prove it

[@mikes.garage]

@@herobo123456 I have repair manual with all the torque specs.

[@konstantinpopov1589]

I can attest it (looking into BMW TIS) - in particular, for the control and tension arms, tie rod ball joint - and the bearing itself! Moreover, on e60 the TIS demands replacing also the bolts fixing the arms..

[@alexey9900]

Good 👍👍👍

Thumb down because the music was unbearable

[@plop386]

12kg of torque on a wheel ? are you silly :o

[@Linoge279]

Yes its correct

[@rowanrees5888]

120 Newton metres is bmw manufacturer spec

[@Darctan1]

You can basicly use 120nm on any normal car rim made out of aluminium or steel

[@joachimjohan1215]

yep you should delete your comment. just makes it silly..

[@nickgage1438]

Touched all over the brake disc with a oily glove, not a major problem, but not the best practise.

[@flybobbie1449]

Already copper grease on it.
