N54 335i Valve Cover Gasket Leak and Repair!!
มุมมอง 4.2K5 ปีที่แล้ว
So after replacing my oil filter housing gasket and my oil pan gasket, I found I still had leaking oil. I used a Depstech scope camera from underneath the car to find where it was leaking from.. I first checked the rear main seal but that looked ok, so then I went up the side of the engine and I found where the drip was coming from. The left rear corner of the valve cover gasket!! Definitely do...

Easy Fix for 2013 Ford Explorer Side Mirror!

About a week ago someone ran into the drivers side mirror on my 2013 Ford Explorer. A brand new mirror was around $500 with tax and shipping and my insurance deductible was $500. My solution.. Go to ebay.. I found the same exact mirror with some cosmetic damage and I got some paint match from Paint Scratch and boom!! like a brand new mirror.

No Cost Fast BMW 335i Blower Fan Fix!!

Went to turn my defrost and heater on and got a crazy noise from the dash!! Turns out my blower fan motor was rusty.. I pulled it out and lubed it up with some WD-40 and Voila!! works great again!! This did not cost any money and was a really fast fix.. I did it on my lunch break with filming and it still only took 20 minutes.. It would probably take even less if I wasn't holding a camera in on...
BMW 335i E90 Super Easy Wheel Balancing- Shimmy Gone!!!

Adding Wheel Spacers to my BMW 335i N54!!

In this video I decided to add wheel spacers on the Bimmer.. My back wheels were set in really far from the fender and I just didn't like it, so I decided to go with 18mm wheel spacers on the back tires which brings the rim almost flush with the fender. My front wheels were almost flush to begin with so i just went with 5mm wheel spacers. Overall I like the look of how it came out. I would have...
I Painted my BMW 335i Grill Gloss Black!
มุมมอง 7K5 ปีที่แล้ว
I have been wanting to do this for a long time.. Here is a simple upgrade to the way the BMW 335i grill looks. I was debating whether or not to plasti-dip it or to paint it. I decided even though I like the plasti-dip look, I do like the gloss black look better. So I just decided to go for it and do it and if I didn't like it I can always paint it again or go with the plasti-dip coating. Video ...
BMW 335i N54 Oil Filter Housing Gasket Leak

I've had an oil leak for quite some time now, I replaced the valve cover gasket and the oil pan gasket and it just didn't get rid of that pesky leak. Finally, I decided to replace the Oil filter housing gasket. This was definitely a huge contributor to the amount of oil that was leaking down the engine.

    @beterbey ปีที่แล้ว

    WD40 is a rust remover and a very thin lubricant which is not suitable for this purpose. Your blower will start screaming again very soon. You better use a lithium based lubricant or at least a machine oil.

    • @thekimballproject3236

    Thanks for the video. I had the same issue and it turned out the the seal around the windscreen was not put back in correctly at my local repair shop and water was leaking directly above the fan causing it to rust, not as bad as yours though, and with a good soaking of WD40 and breakaway , problem solved. However it did take a while to get rid of that WD40 smell.

  • @luisunboxes7330

    I have a 2013 Explorer and had the same thing happen to me right after I was messing with the wind shield wipers. Bought the recommended part on Amazon and paid $63.27 to include tax. It was great cause I got it the very next day. After I removed the 2 screw it didn’t just pull out. I had to lift the tab on top a little and it came out. But it was really easy and fast to replace.

    hello good video, my car was running fine but yesterday I changed the pcv valve because I saw that it smelled burnt, I decided to put a new one take advantage and I put new spark plug and bms high flow filters, and surprise when I started the car it didn't sound the same as before it accelerated and obviously less power and it sounded something like lamineo, and the bov doesn't make the typical noise pst!. With your experience, do you think that the new pcv valve that I put in is related to the problem or was it a coincidence that when I changed all this, something was damaged? I don't know what I should do :(

I found the part at RockAuto for $20.79, and this video is what made me able to install it myself. The instructions are the same, you just unscrew the switch that's on the left rather than the switch that's on the right.

      Your comment is a year old, so I’m assuming my answer is probably too late 😕. But just in case: I just fixed this issue in ten minutes, without costing me a dime!!! Before you replace the switch, that the two screws off of the circuit board, that is on the switch. Pop circuit board off, and there are 4 prongs. I noticed that one of the prongs was ever so slightly bent lower that the others. So I thought, hmm I wonder if it’s no longer touching the board and making the connection. So I carefully bent it up a bit. Put together, reinstalled and BOOM! FIXED!! As a 38 year old single mom, I was pretty stoked to figure this out, without the help of a man, lol.mine was a 2016 Ford Explorer. Also a lot of grease in the connection, so I cleaned it up a bit
