This isn't my car and I accidentally came across this. I just want to say that this was filmed perfectly.
if i had to get to the head gasket, does that mean i have to replace the valve gasket as well?
Thank you Very much for Sharing.
Great vid! This may seem like a dumb question but do you have to drain the oil for this?
Can you please leave a link for the tube seals and for the 2 vacuum tube lines you talked about replacing during this video? BMW wants 22$/sleeve which is a joke. Also, is the 10mm socket you used longer than 1/4inch drive? Or is that long enough?? Thank you! Please let me know asap, trying to do this in a few days
Fantastic how to diy sir. Keep up the great work
Very helpful. Thank you!
Going to change my pcv when I do this too
Hi Brian do you have any video on doing the valve cover gasket on a 2008 bmw 328, Or is it the same as the 335, Please advise.
Excellent video. Your engine is same as in my 2011 BMW Z4 35i. Following your video, I could get to the point where you removed the 2 vacuum lines and fuel line. Video was cut at the vacuum lines near 9:17. How to remove the 2 vacuum lines ? Is the fuel rail attached to the cover ?
OMG thank you for making this video. I have a 2010 335i coupe and I'm new to the BMW car world. I was just surprised on the many area's the N54 motor has oil leaks. Mine is where the oil filter is, bad oil filter housing gasket and oil cooler gasket, and the other place is the engine valve cover. Going to the dealer will cost an arm and a leg. I have no issues doing it myself, I'm just glad I found this video. The most accurate and step by step video. With this I can finally start my gasket replacement not to mention spark coils and spark plug project. Quick question, for the spark plug tubes. Are you sure this is the correct part number 11127575422. I looked it up and it said for N52 engines. Then again they could work for the N54. Would you be able to let me know?
Nice! I like that you're to the point and don't begin with "Whazuuup, YouTube!". QUESTION: Should the valve cover bolts be replaced during this job? What are your thoughts and reasoning?
Very well done video. I especially appreciate you taking the time to document reassembly which is usually left out of these videos. Thanks so much. I just subscribed.
About to do mine myself and this is a great video to help me, thanks a lot!
hello have you replaced the wastegate rattling issue? thank you.
thank you this is Paul just responding to your feedback thanks a lot for your help,God bless you.
