Where did you get ISTA from?

[@hipoman8087]

Good vid on process but no spec details. Also did you check sc gear’s especially the water pump side? Serious issue on some. I like the harmonic and chain part. 👍😎

Great video. Im from south Australia too. We should meet up and take our minis for a cruise

[@ronaldpum]

Thanks mate, that would be fun - whereabouts are you in SA? I am from flagstaff hill.

@@robbyrobstardiyauto3624 This red mini R52 convertible that I fixed is from tea tree gully. He paid $1500 at BMW Adelaide, nothing happens. 2nd quote was $9500, what a joke, hence I gave him a hand to fix it - kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHLdgnaYeL-nZ6c

@ronaldpum yes I remember this video. I'm wanting to do my rear main seal but a little nervous. Big job for me. Plus i think my cv boot is broken. I'm not sure if I should get slogged by bmw or attempt myself.

@@robbyrobstardiyauto3624 Go for it. Research research Research. Then get all your parts and tools you’ll need watch videos like this. Talk to others and ask questions. Write down notes in order with torque specs. Decide what you want to replace now or later. These things are worse than a sardine can so it’ll have to come apart again. Digging into my R53 spring time. New clutch, sc service , timing chain, gaskets , sensors and serious hp upgrades. Long list and won’t happen overnight. Take your time and don’t guess. Do the job right the first time. Good luck!

How did you get the oil cooler and oil filter housing off?

[@ronaldpum]

I used a 90 degree adapter that I bought in aliexpress, really helps get into those tricky areas

good video, what else are you planning to do to it? I just Subscribed.

[@ronaldpum]

Thanks mate - next thing to fix is the exhaust rubbers in the middle near the O2 sensor. The middle part of the exhaust rattles sometimes on idle. I will also show further info on ISTA+ using icom or kdcan cable.
