This car is a ruin! Guess the brand...🤦🏻‍♂️

Hello guys!
BMW has a reputation for plastic parts becoming brittle and failing...allright, this video is a quick example LOL

Haha I can relate. Virtually every rubber and plastic piece on my e39 was completely shot or on its last leg.

I replaced with fibre reinforced rubber fuel line. Still works 9 years later 🙂

Also recently had the plastic intake manifold break, thought the turbo had blown! £50 for a second hand unit and 4 hours she's good as new. E39 525d

Ese mismo problema lo tuve en mi E39. Pensé que no tenía líquido lavaparabrisas y cuando me di cuenta ya se me había podrido la manta protectora. Por cierto, me costó encontrarla de segunda mano; creo que en los desguaces no las guardan...

Gracias por tu comentario Víctor, espero no tener un problema añadido con la dichosa manta acústica…Mañana intentaré buscar en la tienda de repuestos un manguito de diámetro similar, para reparar el asunto lo más económicamente posible.

@@TheultimateDIYmachine El manguito lo encontré sin problema. Respecto a la manta lo malo es si te empieza a perder el relleno interior porque lo deja todo perdido. Ya nos contarás...

The car is a ruin because the previous owner didn't gave a damn about the car...
