In this episode, we dig a bit deeper into the E92 M3 engine and struck coppery treasures! We look underneath of project Frankfurt and I share new info I got from the original owner of the car. We also set up a new solution to drag incapacitated BMWs into the Dojo.

Hondas and Toyotas never leak. They come with lifetime titanium gaskets which means you can buy a corolla from 1990 and it will be as reliable a a 2023 car. I swear Honda and Toyotas use a tremendously different engine design/ manufacturing process unlike any other manufacturer, I swear their engines are soo different from regular engines they totally don't use any rubber gaskets or piston rings or rod bearings etc. which is why their engines will never fail, they totally don't work on the same principle as a regular internal combustion engine from today.

"hacking the tail lights" means they cut them open, replace red leds with orange ones and glue the housing back together. It usually costs about 40-50euros per tail light so it is much cheaper than buying a good used european spec set of tail lights. If job done poorly, tai lights will start to leak water.

Repairing broken headlight adjusters is supposedly impossible on post-facelift/LCI (model year 2001 onwards) E39s. Fortunately this isn't true, with a little patience, care and attention the headlight unit can be split and the adjusters replaced at the cost of a handful of euros. Done properly nobody would ever know that the headlight unit has been "hacked". Much cheaper than the couple of hundred euros a new headlight unit costs. What I would like to know is how to restore the rear light units on the tailgate. They don't respond to the polishing as per the headlights and the body mounted rearlights. It must have something to do with the type pf plastic used.

If you die tonight, do you know where you're going? Did you know that Jesus Christ is THE only way to Heaven and He loves you? Through Him, God offers you a FREE gift - forgiveness. All you need to do is repent, turn away from your sins and evil ways, from now on put your faith completely in Jesus Christ and be obedient to Him. Biblical explanation of the Gospel: God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. (Matthew 12:30) ''Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.'' He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). God gave us free will and since Adam sinned in the garden, sin is the nature of our flesh and we ALL have sinned. (Romans 3:23) The law demands death to those who sin (Romans 6:23). Revelation 21:8 says that all liars will go to hell. For someone to be justified before holy God they have to be sinless, that's why everyone need Jesus Christ - for He lived a sinless life and resurrected. None of us are good in God’s eyes, because for God good means moral perfection. We all have broken God’s commandments, we all have sinned in our lives so none of us are good. ‘’For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.’’ (James 2:10). Our carnal mind is hostile to God; it does not submit to God's moral law and it never will (Romans 8:7). We hate the thought of God for the same reason a criminal hates a policeman - we know we have sinned against God and are guilty of it, but we don't want to be damned. Good News is that Jesus Christ lived a perfect, holy, sinless life, Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, He was buried and He was raised from the dead on the third day according to the Scriptures (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.’’ (John 3:16) We aren’t saved based on our good deeds/works, but only by the grace of God through faith. ''For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said ‘’it is finished’’ (John 19:30) just before He died on the cross, which means He paid the fine for our sins (past, present, future) to be forgiven if we repent and trust in Him. ''What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!'' (Romans 6:15) ''Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out'' (Acts 3:19) Repentance is a turning away from sin and all evil works, and it always results in changed behavior (Luke 3:8). Biblically, a person who repents does not continue willfully in sin. While sorrow from sin is not equivalent to repentance, it is certainly an element of scriptural repentance (2 Corinthians 7:10). Do not play a hypocrite. ''God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.'' (1 John 1:5-6) If you have repented and have genuine faith in Jesus Christ then you will receive the gift of Holy Spirit and be born-again spiritually. (John 3:3) Jesus replied, "Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again." When you believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God’s possession - to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14) You are born again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17). Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. (John 3:36) ''You will know them by their fruits'' (Matthew 7) If you have been truly born-again with the Holy Spirit and He has regenerated your heart, you will desire righteousnes - to do what is good and righteous in God's eyes, to seek God everyday in His Word and prayer, to strengthen your relationship with God. You will no longer desire to willfully continue living in sin but will want to obey God out of your love for Him because of His amazing grace revealed to us through the death and resurrection of His Son. ''Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.'' (2 Corinthians 5:17) ''For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.'' (Eph 2:10) You will have a testimony - of what your life had been before and how has it changed now when you have surrendered it to Lord Jesus Christ. As a declaration and affirmation of your faith in Jesus Christ, get baptised in water because He commanded us to do so. In John 3:5 Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit.'' ''Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit'' (Matthew 28:19) ''Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.'' (Acts 2:41) ''And this water symbolizes the baptism that now saves you also - not the removal of dirt from the body, but the pledge of a clear conscience toward God - through the resurrection of Jesus Christ,'' (1 Peter 3:21) ''We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life.'' (Romans 6:4) ''Having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of God, who raised him from the dead.'' (Colossians 2:12) Please get right with God and start your relationship with Jesus Christ today before it’s too late, because there’s not much time left! "But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.’’ (Mark 13:32) Get to know Christ through God's Word - Bible. At first I recommend reading Gospel of John and book of Romans. God bless you! Jeremiah 29:13 - ''You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.''

People barely drive on it, the lenght is 60-80km full new road, no police there, so you can go as fast as you want, nobody "bat's an eye". :D They only check the trailer truck stickers. I used to drive my e46 320d at top speed 220km/h(stock limit), nothing much but it was enjoyable. You can get on it on a sunny afternoon, sometimes no one is driving on it.

I've owned several BMWs over the last 10 years and sold each one swearing I wouldn't buy another because BMWs are expensive and built to stay that way. Spent way too much money fixing them while my Honda continued to roll along. However, you've ignited the bug in me again and I'm on the hunt for an X3 M40. I would like a quick grocery getter.

Would like to comment on the rod bearings that were done by the shop in NJ. WPC is a friction reduction process that treats the surface. It is NOT a coating and it is done to ACL, King,BE and OEM bearings alike, As long as you clearance the bearings correctly the WPC is actually a much better surface condition than the super thin coatings that you get from any bearing manufacturer. It creates dimples on the surface that are 3-5 microns deep and helps retain tiny pools of oil. FULL DISCLOSURE I am associated with the company. We treat parts from Indy car engines to Trophy trucks, to passenger cars like this BMW . .Our process is even offered by CP Carillo as an OEM treatment on all their Pistons..For the European crowd they are owned by Pankyl. We love the work you are doing Sreten and watch every video!

Hello Sreten! I am enjoying a lot the content you create! Thank you for the opportunity, to spend some nice quality time! I want to give you an idea of how to use the same winch for the other post also: you can install two pulleys on the ground and divert the cable, one pulley will be in front of the winch, and the other pulley will be on the second axis in front of the elevator, so you can reroute the pulling cable to the other axis of the workshop. Hope you will see my comment and the advice will be useful! All the best from Bucharest Romania!

I am very disappointed with this video. Thinking it was going to be another hour+ long video, I ran to the store and bought two large pizzas and a case of beer. Now I have a 3/4 of a pizza and most of the case left warming up on top of my table. 😝 All joking aside, I am looking to see the internal carnage of this engine. Keep up the good work.

i don’t think the copper is from the replacement rod bearings. wpc treated oe bearings are usually the updated “lead free” ones and i believe those are made of tin and aluminum. one of the issues with the updated bearings is you can’t see anything in oil analysis if they are wearing. my guess is main bearings if you are seeing copper.
