Should've done that butyl tape on the Vapor barrier on the rear doors they're known for leaking water into the interior through there

I would love to see more videos on this F10. I just bought a 2013 535i X-Drive. It's on its way.

[@haveaseatplease]

Excellent job, like always.

[@mevc2261]

Well done Peter.

Nice to see my 2014 535i isn't alone with this. It's been a great car but this sticky door handle issue makes one wonder what the hell is going on over at BMW that something this idiotic would happen. Gross.

Vrai, je n'ai jamais compris pourquoi !??.

[@stratboy1000]

Thanks for doing this but it would have been useful to do the drivers side door as one of your 2 doors as that one is the most involved and most used (and more prone to the nasty gummy crap on the handle).

Did the same fix on my E91, nice diy

[@davidridore]

Would love to see more content on the F10 used to have 2011 6MT and miss it so much. Def looking to get into another one just can’t find the spec I want!

big thanks! do more F10 videos

When replacing bits for the two-tone eddtion interior. Black is always a good option.

[@andrethib]

that's another problem handled 🙂

[@jp2246]

I'll show you out the door

[@user-qi4vq1ke1p]

Please note, you ordered the beige that matches closely , but if you check with more vendors, you will find what they call beige white which is a perfect match for color!

Gute gemacht👍 Ich werde meine ausbauen und Hochglanz lackieren. Grüße aus Germany Stuttgart

[@akashmohan999]

This problem only exists on my driver door and the door handle is just a little rubber pocket on the driver side.

[@red95gts]

Nicely done. I see they have beige and “creamy”, which looks lighter. Maybe that would have been a closer color match?

[@PracticalEnthusiast]

Thanks! I went back and forth on the beige and creamy colors, but I believe the best match was the beige. Creamy is almost white and would mismatch in the other direction.

[@raybutts9133]

Does your motorized rear sunshade still work and is your headliner drooping?

[@rushmatic]

Is that a cordless Hilti ratchet? Man you’re a baller! 😅

[@PracticalEnthusiast]

Nah, it's a Milwaukee. Works great though!

[@rushmatic]

@@PracticalEnthusiast equally good 👍🏽

[@strikeryachts]

Why convert to black.

[@raybutts9133]

Using black in my opinion might have looked better? It doesnt match BUT still co ordinates well with the interior. Also you should have resealed the vapor barriers while you were in there as they are famous for leaking water into the car and flooding the carpet before you know it compromising electric components under the seats. Just my 2 cents worth of advice.

[@raybutts9133]

ask me how I know the above is true.

[@craiglcooper]

Good job, but the colors are WAY off. This happens to every BMW after 5 years. I'll never understand why they haven't learned their lesson.

[@gplusgplus2286]

Well done BMW, door handles out of chewed up Haribo candy. Sorry to say it but every BMW after 2004 is JUNK.
