bravo
On high speeds do the shaft need balancing? Or do you face any vibrations?
No vibrations. It was already balanced. Changing the end won't affect it.
Should chuck a link in where you got them from
silverproject.eu/rear-control-arm-camber-kit-for-bmw-e53-x5/
Upon removing the metal caps, the copper windings all came loose. The plastic tape that holds them had disintegrated. Beyond repair?
I would say so! Sorry to hear that...
it possibel with bmw e46 cluster ?
Of course.
the program wants me to turn off the ignition, which pin is responsible for the ignition in the controller?
Basically, just disconnect the power for a few seconds.
@@BimmerFixthanks bro 💪💪
I'm pretty grateful for this video is pretty straight forward but I just needed to dubble check on how to do it
Is this a 4 speed or 5 speed GM transmission?
4 speed
what an awsome job you did ...no workshop even wants to take this kind of jobs ....
318i key ready but ews write error:( solution? Please
Probably lost contact. You gotta make sure it's making a good connection between the programmer and pins on the chip.
I had the same part, it was pretty tight even I installed it outside of the car. Btw did you forgot to lube up the contact surfaces? might wear out faster than usually.
I sure did😃
it it work on e34?
Check bmwteka.com for e34 pinouts
Great job thanks for sharing 👍
I have a 2003 325i and my dash backlighting doesn't turn on, everything else works. I have had the cluster tested and was told that it work fine on the bench test. Anyone have any suggestions.
Do the bench test yourself, then check if your vehicle connector is supplying the voltage for that pin with a multimeter.
How high did you have to jack up the vehicle? I’m working with two jack stands and a scissor jack and I have been putting off this job too long I feel.
Thankfully, I saved up for a lift! But totally doable on jack stands, the higher the better :)
Hi just wanted to know where you bought your transfer rebuild kit from and if you have a link to it. I'm from Australia and I've tried nearly every possible store online but the don't deliver to Australia for some reason and have been stuck without this one piece.
I bought through different websites, took me forever to find them. Also check ebay
Nice one👍
Jestem z Polski i też naprawiam swoje X5 samemu . Dzięki twojemu filmowi zaoszczędziłem czas i poskładałem beż błędów . 💪💪💪 . Sorry że piszę po swojemu - pewnie sobie przetłumaczysz . Jeszcze raz dziękuję i pozdrawiam serdecznie
Thanks
Thanks for you video. Very helpful. I just did mine without the spacer. Welded it on 81 cm and cut of about 1 cm from the gearboxtube. That was worn out anyway so now I,ve got the spines reaching all the way in. Works perfectly.
That's a great job! The spacer is very hard to find.
Really appreciate your channel, Bimmerfix. Ive been slowly doing a refresh on a 2002 4.6 and it's been really helpful. Thank you very much for your time.
Glad to help another fan! Enjoy the 4.6. Upgrading my seats to nappa from 4.6/4.8 is on my list of things :)
Better to just buy a used swing arm online. That's what I did. I replaced all the rear suspension components on my 2002 E53. I used all new parts except for the swing arms.
I'm sure that can work, just never know how much life is left in used rubber.
@@BimmerFix That's true. It's a gamble.
Pretty nice video. I have not done anything for mine in ages, tiny bit something for the E34 lately. Btw only mistake I notice was those handbrake cables, those go under the subframe by those "formed wires" which hang them down from the subframe. Pretty work ❤
Thanks for the correction! Everything seems so simple when taking apart, but when putting back together, I discover things can go back in so many different ways, and I'm always regretting I didn't take enough pictures/videos! 🤣 You're lucky you have E34, my favorite looking car!
@@BimmerFix Also E39 but not bigger than 2.5l, early one. Yea I personally took a lot of pics and I have own that same car for 10 years. Not selling it off ever :)
Where did you the rebuilld kit?
There's some on ebay and then you have cobra transmission. It took me weeks, if not months to find all the parts and I ordered from different bearing companies.
Did the bottom of the side trim line up with the edge of the bottom panel? I'm finding that when installing the bottom panel it sits a 1/4 to 1/2 inch lower than the bottom of the side trim on each side.
Yes, I believe I had the same issue. I had to play around with it.
If I have my key that starts the car and do what you did at the start of the video by synching another key fob, can I just use my original key to start the car and the new fob to open the doors?
You can definitely do that!
@@BimmerFix I’m concerned it will remove the ability to start the car from using my one and only working key
@TyeTreegaming that won't happen. It's also possible to remove EWS completely. Thus, any key will start your vehicle.
@@BimmerFix is that a simple task? All I’m really after is having a fob that will unlock the doors and I was worried as we only have the 1 key for the car, I have the Amazon fob ready to try but have held out after I heard about the EWS part of keys and thought using my working key to program another fob may remove it
@TyeTreegaming it's not a simple task, but you can purchase a spare dme with EWS deleted. Then all you have to do is swap the DME and never worry about EWS. If you want EWS back, swap back your original DME. Look on eBay, they go for as cheap as $100.00. Send me your email if you'd like.
1 liter oil?
1.18 liters i.e. 2.5 pints
I think lifting is the way to go definetely for E53. That kit seems bit better quality one than mine, it was 4y ago when I bought it, Russian made.
I think I know what kit you're talking about. Was it Tema 4x4? I tried it, but didn't like it either. It only had rubber inserts for the springs, no metal plates for the struts.
@@BimmerFix Yes. I did not notice anything while driving, like problems or any, but no anything for the shocks to rear. For me it was ok with thr longest shocks, but I would still have liked them to have like spacers also
Great video! What is the part number for that spacer, and the new rubber o-ring grommet?
The spacer is aftermarket, no part number, unfortunately. Check realoem.com for other parts, or let me know the time in the video you're looking at.
Hi Thanks for your video's 🏆
Thanks for watching!
The lower part attachment for the strut is kinda missing of this. And you need to tell to torque it the weight on as level. :) Ofc it's hard now since without the subframe. Good parts. I also bought Sachs to E39 as it's the OEM manufacturer on many parts.
Had no idea NV had products make it beyond the US auto makers. Nothing special about the fluid. ATF+4 would be more than adequate and you can find it everywhere.
I think it's a pretty sturdy TC, not many complaints about it.
Good job and again showing the mistakes too :) I should try to get my inspiration with the E53 back too and do it little forward with some rust jobs
You should!
I also did this like 3y ago but only seals and new chain. Nice that you shared the mistake too so it's done already for the viewers 😊
I've probably gone overboard replacing the bearings....oh well!
Good Job. Bro. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🫵
I got a smaller version, presented by you here, but even though I was able to rebuilt the valve using this tutorial. Many thanks, heater works/cooler works great.
Glad it helped!
I see the mileage was wrong & you also mentioned it. Did the mileage on the vehicle change or is it something not to worry about. Good video.
Sorry, I don't remember anymore, but if it's only off by a few km, nothing to worry about!
Nice. I had pretty good brakes on mine, replaced once. Now it has just been laying on garage for few monts without touching on it, but IS model brakes were bolt on too. No real reason actually, but on front those are pretty much bigger even. Do you think that paint to stand out rusting? I did use on mine just casual 2k epoxy and some non 2k silver which said like 150c heat durability or so.
As long as you prepped the surface properly!
Didn't work for me, the valve fell apart since it was aged. Bought the used one for $40...
That's a good option :)
Hello,nice video. You can help me to connect the wire for my cluster ,i want to test only the dashboard light.thx
How can I help? Just follow the procedure :)
hello can u help me please ? i got the cable i got flash tool i bridge 14-18 but flash tool doenst flash ecu.... why ? m52b20 20 pin
Are you doing it on a bench or in the vehicle? If in the vehicle, don't forget to bridge pins 17 and 20 on the round adapter. thebimmerbarn.com/blogs/news/round-20-pin-adapter-bypass
17-20 or 14-18 ? hehe @@BimmerFix
btw i fix it i just need ms41 def cause my roomraider doesnt open it can you help me please?@@BimmerFix
@@dexterpapasideris1706 sites.google.com/site/openms41/romraider
@dexterpapasideris1706 You short pins 17-20, that way you can access everything from OBDII, no need for "Pac-Man" adapter.
how much liter oil?
Capacity: With filter 6.9 quarts.
@@BimmerFix 6.9 quarts engine oil or transmission oil?
Liter?
6.9 quarts.
I did this too to E83 and E53. For first one under the car. Did just cut it so it came out easily. The main thing is to have it on level and with lubrication it will go easily. I did not have tool to pull it off so that's why the cutting with a hacksaw.
Right on! Tricky under the car, hacksaw is a good idea to remove the old part :)
Exellent😊😊
Have done these too, but even at over 400tkm driven these weren't as stuck as yours. Maybe someone put mine on with some lubricate as new on the factory 🤔
I think climate plays a big role as well. Glad I'm done with this job!
@@BimmerFix Where do you live in? I mean they pour much of salt at here to the roads too, but my car was in casual use for first 13 years of it's life. After it I have done mainly stuff to it and driven like under 15tkm during the past 10 years.
@thetoughcookie3665 I'm in Alberta, but this vehicle had over 400km when I purchased it, not sure about the history. Apparently, it came from the states as the cluster was in miles.
I think it would've been a lot easier using a cup with the correct diameter. I have a hydraulic press similar to the one in this video, and I've never had any difficulty with wheel bearings or bushings. It's worth it to buy a hydraulic press _and_ a press sleeve kit.
@@ericwelsh4853 I had just an common set with many parts and a threaded rod, did take them nicely. I have hydraulic press too but there was no need for it. But original bushings are quite tight on that spot, only thing which they seem to suffer is a attachment to rubber which gets loose if something. But on the other hand: it's a heavy car which means that if your bush is like softer than stock one and leans like 1mm more on this point, it's much more on a tire.
Nice instructions. Did this also couple of year ago, but without the spacer and welded at it's spot on full lenght.
Should the splines have some sort of lubricant before fitting together?
You can put a bit of grease. A/C drains just above the splines. Some people move the drains slightly, some use grease on the splines. Personally, I didn't find the rust to be significant, rather just light surface rust. I just sprayed the splines with ospho (phosphoric acid). I'm not worried about much rust, especially how deep the splines go after this fix (almost 2 inches instead of 0.75).
Very nice. Thank you for your contribution to helping owners keep these tanks on the road.
super educational video,Thank You!
