I didn’t understand how the timingchain is attached to the oilpump

Hi, I really loved this three part videos Test question please? I have a 2008 528xi n52 video gave me a lot of knowledge. Can I ask how long it took you to do the complete rebuilt the time you built the whole engine , also how many hours it took to put into the vehicle? One last question are you a mechanic by trade or have you just learned this over the years of fixing your vehicles?

did you measure the bearing clearance tolerance before installation? If yes, how ?

thank you, helped me a lot!!!

Please, 8:00 track name?

Been looking for the correct chain removal and replace and this answered all my questions. Thanks

I can't putting it in timing because the engine seized on me can i still putting it apart?

Did you bought a new oil pump? Im about to rebuild mine but the engine seized on me and im new with this engine

360° is not 300nm izs multiple.1000nds The reason to do this is to Stretch the Bolt to male it hold inhad tondo it with a 2m Lengh extender its atleast 2000+nm in total

Hello, I noticed a small arrow on the exhaust tappets, was curious if they need to be pointed towards a certain direction. Thank you

I would be happy if you help. I have a 2007 BMW X5 E70 3.0si vehicle. Two weeks ago, the exhaust side camshaft broke down. We realized this after the low oil pressure warning. My mechanic did not see the need to open the lower crankcase and said that the problem was in the upper cover. As he said, the camshaft was faulty (the bearing was broken). He procured these and other necessary parts and reassembled everything. He washed the upper part of the engine and the parts it was attached to by spraying air with diesel oil (diesel may have gotten into some sockets here). Then he replaced the valvetronic engine and tried to give it the first start. But he failed to start the engine. I asked him whether the crank and camshaft synchronization was done correctly (because we also changed the chain and valves). He said that he had done the accuracy test on it twice. We have not been able to start the engine for about a week. The error codes are 2a9a and 2a9b. My mechanic found that the coils were not igniting. They tested with many different devices. They tried coding etc. thinking that the problem was in the Valvetronic engine. They still couldn't get any results. The last time they tested it was with another device and they said that my vehicle was giving off sauce and went into theft mode. That's why the engine was not firing. I would like to hear your opinions since you repaired the same engine and a similar problem. I would really appreciate it if you answer. (my engine n52b30)

I have to say sir, I really like your back ground music. I have an n52 with 150k mile on iy and it still runs great. I love it. I will also rebuild the one I have before purchasing a new BMW.

Question .. does cylinder 1 at the crankshaft where the connecting rods meet up have ball bearings ? Or just regular bearings with cracked caps ?

What song was that playing around 6:40

hey dude like your videos very interesting , im rebuilding my n52b25 atm and im curious about the camshafts i ordered a used exhaust camshaft that looks better then mine but did u every recognize that there are 2 different camshafts for each exhaust and inlet they look different i bet u recognized this already, do u know whats different about them or maybe bmw just altered production things there idk . Do u recognized that the camlobes are thicker on the one exhaust camshaft. Would be cool if u can say something about that because u obviously have more knowledge about n52 then me i guess :Dty

What exactly is the wire you installed the first time?

How much was it to rebuild the engine

hello, i was wondering what the "other" spring compressor tool was that could be used.

do those piston come with low friction rings. is it true low friccion tension rings let too much oil pass and have high oil consumption?

Why is the video missing they parts removal? It don't help much

Hii, I saw a comment on a different video from you, which seemed you have a lot of knowledge about BMW engines. I would like to replace the chain tensioner on my N20B20 engine. Can I just swap it out or do I need to lock up the timing chain to swap it? I will do an entire chain replacement but for now I'd like to try the tensioner first.

Where is part 2?

What s the point dude?

Is this N52B25 ?

how do u change it to english?

Hello, Can I apply assembly lube instead of the oil where the camshaft touches rockers? Your comment would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hey, nice informative videos. I have a n52 and am finding small flat particles in my oil filter. They are uniform thickness and all are flat. Was wondering if you know of any interior coatings in the n52, possibly in the timing chain area?

can i get this version on inpa bmw inpa 5.50 ista-d sss dis tis i can't found it

Where can I buy the tool for compress the springs of the valves? I have to change the valve steam seals…

Do you need that holding tool in the center towards the bottom if the engine is still in the car?

Thank you so much

Just found your channel and needing some help,so my car is making some weird noise,it sounds like if the timing chain is loose,i already replaced my timing tensioner(with no results) and opened the valve cover checking to see if probably the vannos are going bad but they look fine(physically)this sounds will only appear in low RPM or when am going up hills, i have no lights or check engine on my dash but i do have a code DSC[DXC_90] 5F78-Engine Management; interface, idk if this has something to do with the noise, plus my car feels heavy with poor acceleration

Awesome awesome video. I think a rebuild is beyond my mechanical abilities. Are you available for hire? Or… Does anyone know of a shop or shops that do N52 rebuilds. It seems like most shops only offer low mileage engine swaps. I’m assuming the cost of a rebuild is generally prohibitive. Thanks, Chris

No plastigauge?

im trying to remove head bolts on an n51 e90 although my eccentric shaft wont turn manually so i can get to a few bolts, any suggestions?

Question at minute 14:19 you turning freely, i am trying to change my vacuum pump if i turn this,affects my timing?

Hey, are you still on this channel? Need a little help if you can get around to it, thanks😊

Being able to remember where everything goes is amazing

Hi, thank you for your videos, I'm going to start reassembling my B30 soon but I don't dare to use steel screws for the engine mount. When disassembling I used the aluminum screws of the gearbox but without the cylinder head it has already started to bend. I see that you used the steel screws, you didn't have any corrosion with the magnesium alloy of the engine?

Ok lowkey confused does he torque the crank bolts to 20 the 70 lbs or 20 lbs then 70 degrees

Intake bacuim lines

Thank you

How much Nm for vacuum pump gear

Awesome video series. Thanks for posting them!

Thank you for posting this series. My N52 lives again thanks in no small part to your videos!

I finally got my n52 back up and running! Your videos helped me get familiar with the process before i ever picked up a wrench. Priceless!

make sure you add copyright for your music choice lol

What other parts am I going to need ? When I replace the timing on a 2007 BMW 328i e90 That has the N52 engine?
