My yellow oil light just started doing exactly what you described. Did
replacing the sending unit fix your problem?

switched back to 0/40 Mobile1

kgbeast71 says:

love your sense of humor. Whomever does this, please video and post, I away
up for a good lough

Bullshitkorner says:

@zaxosz i never thought about that i’ll keep it in mind incase i ever have
to remove it again

Bullshitkorner says:

you should not let the brand name deter you from doing the work, BMW’S are
actually easier to work on than most north american cars

alipate takau says:

Winter is good here ,the sun still shines 🙂 how’s Canada summer?, yeah I
will get a Peake and reset it. Keep posting more vids up I like learning
instead of taking it to mechanic to fix, do u know how to repair the sun
roof inside cover? 🙂 cheers..

Bullshitkorner says:

the other day i noticed when i turned sharp the cv would pop and jerk. i
Tried to turn sharp in reverse just to see if that was the case and it was
the same. Once the cv starts clicking while i’m driving and clicking going
around corners it’s time to change it

Henri Molle says:

Any problems with the cheap sender? I see it for $120 everywhere and in a
couple of places at $29. Any reason why I should go with the expensive one?
Thanks!

Levi Walker says:

I use bacon grease for my engine lubricant 🙂

MegaMeng86 says:

thank you i finally find my answer. now i gonna change the oil level sender

Bullshitkorner says:

oh it didn’t work then yes the peake scanner would work perfectly you can
purchase them off ebay for like 40 bucks plus shipping. How are things down
under isn’t this your winter season ?

Brandon Stauffer says:

No the secondary air relay is located in the fuse box on the driver front
in the engine bay

alipate takau says:

So the only way to reset the inspection on 1998 BMW e46 is to use that
reset counter that you have??? Where can I get One from?? And ur lightbulb
on your license plate is out . Thanks heaps this has been very educational
and helpful.

Manny Zuni says:

325i. and valves cover gasket . and i see the valves dry no oil , and the
oil level is o,k.. ,, this shit is killin me, some budy help me please..

Kenny Rood says:

Thank you so much for all your help, I’ve watched almost every video you
have available for the E46. I have no excuses why it’s taken me this long
to say something. Excellent videos and I laugh everytime. Thank you so
much, please keep up the great videos.

alipate takau says:

I will have a play around with it has full Oil (up to the full mark on dip
stick which is the second gap, hmm just so confusing ,one of my mates said
it might have too much oil and draining abit might help.ive read on the net
and some people had the same problem .thanks again heaps,will look more
into it.

Bullshitkorner says:

with the ignition off and the key out, press and hold the left side button
(trip meter reset) on your dashboard, keeping it held down insert the key
and turn to position 1. continue to hold the button, the word test shows up
followed by the word reset on the display, then it will start to flash,
while it is flashing release the button and then press it againfor approx
1/4 second. turn off the ignition key next time you switch it on it will
show the milage to the next service

gatinho200 says:

Hi.. my oil light in the instrument cluster ” not turn on” … when i put
the key , open ignition and the others lights working but the oil light

Jozef Mericko says:

Bullshitkorner says:

if your not happy then move back to Africa nobody would miss you

Maury73100 says:

Hi..I have a cuestion, my light of Oil is flash red no orange, is red, and
turn on and turn off, for a few minutes when i drive my BMW e46, do you
think is the Oil Sensor..

Bullshitkorner says:

your welcome hopefully these videos have been helpful in keeping your E46
running

Bullshitkorner says:

keep me posted on what you come up with

nilzr1 says:

You will never get all of the oil out when the car is standing like that.

Bullshitkorner says:

its been over 6 months and it works great still

Bullshitkorner says:

it hasn’t happen to me yet but if it does i will for sure be making a video
for it. I just realized that in the past few days my right side cv axle is
starting to go so there will be a video on that as well

Aman Diwakar says:

its a 36mm socket not a 38mm

Bullshitkorner says:

our summers are very short like around 3 months. I will be posting more
videos for sure once i’m done building the jeep. I’ve never had to repair
the sun roof roof inside cover is it jammed ? or does the sunroof jam and
you can’t open or close it ?

Bullshitkorner says:

i use a mann filter and amsoil oil

Jetubeb says:

Do you have to drain all the oil i order to change the oil sensor?

Maury73100 says:

Hi,,is me again, whats is the name of the tool you used for reset de oil
service in your panel control..I need one..thanks!!!!

Bullshitkorner says:

@Maury73100 its a peake scanner and i got mine of ebay that was the
cheapest place I could find it

goldBCFC says:

Canada looks one shit place to live i thought england was bad in winter

Bullshitkorner says:

that’s the one behind the engine that’s a real bitch it get it isn’t it

alipate takau says:

I know I tried it ,it didn’t work and I was reading all about it on the
net, so I was thinking do I need that Peake thing you have? Hello from
Australia to Canada 🙂

alipate takau says:

hey i changed the oil filter,oil and oil sensor, as i was driving ten
minutes into my trip, the yellow light came on and didnt go off till a few
seconds after engine off, can the light come on for to much oil also, what
do u think is causing this? ive even cleaned the wiring/plug that goes from
car to oil sensor. thanks mate

Jose Francisco Medeiros says:

Do you use Synthetic oil? What type of oil filter do you use?
