This channel feels original in the sea of KZbin VPN advertisements, Manscaping products, empty daily vlogs, and screen protector ads. It's actual hands-on automotive content not advertising the newest fad. Skill at work, a discernible skill with results vs running a clickbait marketing machine for money and views. I like it, I wish more would stay like this or go back to this type of content.

Liqui moly as a sponsor is not that bad because that stuff actually goes in the car he is working on. But all thr sponsors that have zero to do with the cars feels so desperate and cheap to me. Like giving up on the passion for cars and selling the soul to the empty shell product placement pushers. Keep it up with the BMW's, your videos keep me motivated with my old german crap called 1980's Opels :P

Congratulations on being one of a handful of people on the planet known to have successfully serviced the S85 V10 rod bearings. Too often we hear about these engines self destructing due to this known flaw in the S85's. Even the Car Ninja, Jonny, a very skilled BMW specialist wasn't able to successfully repair JRGO's S85-powered M6. Huge props to getting this car back on the road. I still long for more E32 content, or even some work on the E21 3 series.

I'm pretty sure any time I lose while driving against an M5 I would make up by making fewer refuelling stops! 😂 You can see my first 535d from purchase to accident, subsequent repair and sale here: meerkats.uk.com/log-book

It feels good knowing as a Dutchmen that I can drive a few 100 km and also experience the magnificent glory of the Autobahn. I still haven’t driven my car at top speed. I think I should take a trip some time. 😆🏆🌷 I love the channel and thank you for the video.

Used to be stationed in Augsburg, traveled up to Wurzburg from A8 up to A7 - My poor Saturn used to chug at 120MPH\ 190Km, and get its doors constantly blown off by BMWs, Merc-sleds, and the occasional Italian rocket. Loved every moment. Popping out of a tunnel near Crailsheim was a treat. Taught the wife how to drive fast on those highways. She grew to love it... I miss them days so.....

I had this done about 3 weeks after buying mine, after reading how unreliable the idrive readout was,and discovering for myself the comments are true, it voided my warranty according to the supplying dealer thankfully my local dealer who still services it to this day thought it a wise mod even if they wouldn't officially advise it being done, yet still honoured the warranty.
