Hey would this work on a 2004 545i as well?

DIYsavecash says:

Great Tip Matt, thank you

Matthew Fairweather says:

It is easier to use the emergency transmission release for neutral mode with the car off. This enables easier access to the guibo rear bolts during removal.

DIYsavecash says:

Thanks for watching the video, I’m glad that you were able to save a lot of money, enjoy the smoothness.

AWESOME VIDEO. I improvised a bit more with the transmission brace by removing it to gain better access to the Guibo but great video quality, step-by-step, and saved me a ton of cash!

DIYsavecash says:

Hello, the results are great no more loud thunk sounds, no more pulling up to stop signs and clunk noises, I’m happy with the results, the design still needs a fix but overall I’m happy, if you own your car for a long time you might have to put another one in 75,000 miles later.

RuNutty says:

How has your car been ever since you replaced your guibo/u-joint? Is it smoother at all? I need to replace mine ASAP!

DIYsavecash says:

Hello, no I never felt that I lost power, in the video it shows the bad slack on the guibo on my bad one, so once the driveshaft is spinning really fast you won’t get the clunks or noises, at least on mine that was the issue. Thanks for watching the videos.

DIYsavecash says:

Yes sometimes but you would feel more of a clunk then a slip but others report different issues, normally it’s from Park to Reverse then Clunk, sometimes for me park to drive, but always was from 1st gear to 2nd then I would slow down for a stop sign and clunk very embarrassing it sounds like your transmission is going (that’s what others think). The worst sound was again Park to Drive and Park To Reverse Clunk. Sounded like my transmission fell off. Thanks for watching the videos.

jqahir says:

He charged me that much cause he’s my friend he might charge u more, but he’s on hillside and 190st jamaica queens its a car dealership nyautotraders and his name is sayeed he has a small garage he works out of but he’s legit

DIYsavecash says:

Yes the famous Clunk or knock, mine is completely gone now that I replaced it. I’m very happy with the results.
Thanks for watching the videos:)

sa1408 says:

the most famous symptom for a bad Guibo is a clunk or knock when you put gear on R. after replacing it’s gone.

Thanx for the video

Gia Jace says:

The guy in Long Island charge 2500 if your sure its the valve steam seal I can get u this guys info

Gia Jace says:

Your own mechanic or a shop??? If its a shop can u give me the info ..and the smoke coming out of your car could be the valve steam seal I think not really sure but I read about it in the forum it’s about a $5000-8000 job but there’s a guy in Long Island that a few people from the forum swear by him that his good but I could be wrong Chris the guy that made the video would know more than me so don’t just go with my advise

jqahir says:

My mechanic did it, hillside ave in queens

Gia Jace says:

Thanx for the video!!! jqahir where did you get it done in NYC ???

jqahir says:

My car smokes in idle, its white smoke more then average what is that?

jqahir says:

I got mine done for $200 labor in nyc. But it was a big job.

mrexecutive1 says:

Guibo, pronounced gweebow.


DIYsavecash says:

If you have the tools and the time, I’d say go for it, but if you have the extra several hundred bucks to pay for it, then head that route, thanks for watching:)

DIYsavecash says:

That’s sounds like a fair price to myself as well, the part he’ll get for about 100, and he’s charging you 400 in labor, if I were to do this job for someone, I would probably charge the same, if you have the cash it’s a good price. Try to get him to do 500 out the door no tax:) Thanks for watching:)

Leo Anderson says:

My mechanic is charging $500 for this. Seems fair?

PaviIions says:

i wish i can change mine but i think i’m hesitant

DIYsavecash says:

Your welcome, the video took about half a day to upload, enjoy, thanks for watching.
