The time has come to bring this neglected V12 machine back to life. A lot needs to be done in order to get the car going again after a long-time of standstill and we'll cover all of that in this episode. Discover mistakes from the previous incompetent mechanic shop while I grunt and battle my way through this car. Satisfaction guaranteed in this episode!

"Fresh carbon fiber towel"
I thouth that i heard it too 😀
i was listening and was like " Is that some new shit??? " hahahhahhaha
High performance cleaning
10:20 - yep! I wondered if it might be some new kind of ultra-heavy-duty feminine hygiene product... ;-)
Weight reduction, you know. ;-)
Who else says "Coooomimg up " with him in the intro.
everyone i think, this should be the motto of this channel if you ask me
I even tried to push the car into garage :D
I do, every time 😂
Even Steve's BMW Barn took this habit over: th-cam.com/video/lMqWDw2Y2cw/w-d-xo.html&t
We should get the 'what happened in last episode' intro and after that 'coooming up' :).
I love this guy, not only is he a good mechanic he's also a good comedian
you're not lying ! He's great all around man wish he was in the states to meet em and possibly do some mechanic work xD
Ye he is
"I mean I have seen some shady business, but this. This is just plain stupid" 😃
Hi, Kevin! Agreed. It's great to see a guy who cares about every aspect of the job, even the 'boring' tricky bits. He's like a skilled surgeon - his first concern is to do no harm to his patient.
And, as you say, his wit makes the videos highly entertaining. :-)
This is so true!
Probably the only automotive channel with 45 minute + videos that doesn't require a fast forward now and then.
Project Binky, thank me later.
but filled with annoying add breaks by yt. do they really think anyone would get attracted by their adds?I personnaly get pi**d by it and hold the advertisers responsible to interrupt the video.
@Travis Walker you already have this content for free but lets make sure content creator doesn't get anything in return by turning on ad blocker. Good job
@@M539Restorations I have no problems with ads. But for people having complaints like him, I showed him a way out.
OMG You're right!!
Am a nurse and 50 ,never touched a tool to repair or fix a car and I have serviced and repaired my E34 540i V8's petrol pump and fully serviced it . All thanks to this genius! Retraced all his steps and it worked!
Bravo!! The internet age can be rather great.
“I just had a breakfast of amateurs and we can proceed.” 🤣
Wondering what that breakfast includes LOL.
@@Guatiao not Wheaties! He would have remembered to plug in the fuel pump 😁
It's a reference to the movie Rush :D
I haven't even watched this and I already like it.
Same
Same
Same!
Ditto
Me to
Haha "this is just stupit", "there is a f*cking Arrow on it", "this is just uacceptable", "he is fired"
If some-one will fire him, i will re-hire him to work on my small collection of cars with much better tools and proper larger space than what he has now..
@@poplaurentiu4148 you didn't understood ! He was talking about the guy who did an horrible job for 5000.. the one who put the fuel filter on the wrong side !
@@fiestamatic5736 tanks for clearing that.. ;0)
Dear BMW Group Classic, I think you've just found your newest and greatest ever employee and representative.
What I love about Sreten, he doesn't cut corners. If something has to be replaced or serviced he does it with no hesitation.
Well, he deals mostly with old V12 limousines. Cutting corners with them would produce poorly running crap cars.
I never comment on youtube, but for this channel il make an exception. This is the only channel i lay back and watch full screen.
Me too. This man is a legend! : )
This video has made my shift a hundred times better.
you watching at work ? :D
@@ThaZapalka I’m watching while I’m working now.
You should work bruh
Dirbk tu tik 😂😂 ne ne juokauju 😅
How is your comment 13 hours ago when the video was uploaded an hour ago?
M539: releases a video on a Friday evening.
Me: a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
You should open a BMW workshop for old cars like this where people can be sure to get what they pay for. I love your videos man keep it up👍👍👍
then he is going to need more evil twins and maybe some good ones
...or a workshop where people can take their old cars and fix it themselves under his supervision. I mean I would pay for it...just have to find an old broken BMW :D
@@MK-yx3xk Yes, I can imagine that scenario, like a chess master that is playing against 20 people simultaneously and walking from chess board to chess board :D
This is a very, very reasonable proposition.
even if it is 200km to Frankfurt, i would take the distance for the sake of my BMW!
BTW if u really open a shop, hire me for ur IT guy haha :D
LOVE ur channel!
This is one of those rare channels which you can’t wait for content to come out
Could not agree more! The consistency of quality is ridiculously high. Truly great stuff.
Sreten after getting a bmw i8 : " I see cylinder 1, 2 and 3 but where are the other 9 !?"
He's never getting that new crap! The cars on this channel are all that BMW was about for sure! The E32 was the first V12 large sedan to set the trend. Mercedes didn't have a V12 at the time this popped out for the market. This car made history.
@@volnick1986 you should never say never :)
The i8 should have had , at least, an Inline Six that would have made it so much better & like the M1!!!
20 dislikes from mechanic and company who repaired fuel system...
:D
? I don't know!
you will always get dislikes :) doesn't matter
@@michalskula1285 it is how yt works.... I noticed that on some videos which have the premiere coming still in few hours yet there are already some dislikes. but correct - it doesn't matter
Here in Brazil we call this type of mechanic "Tião mecânico" kkkkkk
I'll never get bored of old BMWs, there really is something for everyone. Even in its current state this E32 is a fine example. Very much looking forward to what comes next on this V12 Bavarian Legend. Great work Sreten!
I must say seeing that E32 up on the lift from behind, square exhaust pipes, L shaped lights, diamond black metallic - this is BMW! It's what made the brand, E30/32/34/31 those cars are the foundation of the legend that used to be. Thanks for sharing!
I have the same exact car, was in a garage for 12 years and I have bought it. The first thing I noticed is the very V8-ish behaviour of the m70, it turns out the one fuel pump is gone. I am watching this for the fifth time now and it is a brilliant tutorial!!! Thank you for your videos, can‘t wait for your uploads.
Best automotive channel ever. Greatings from Lithuania.
Best part is ninja flip 🙂
I've been saying "COOOOMING-UP" to my pets right before serving them dinner, so when they heard it when I was playing this video they all got excited :-)
BTW- this was a fantastic video, congrats on getting her started! I live in New York and would love to find a BMW and/or Benz mechanic who knows his stuff the way you do. It's shocking to see the shortcuts and mistakes some of these "experts" make.
That is so cute
LOL i did it this morning as well. I saved this video for my sunday relax day.
Quote of the day:
"BANK ONE IS F***ED"
Can you say 'fogged' on TH-cam without getting your Comment deleted?
I'm f***ed if I know...
Fogged, not f***ed...
I would like to say "Thank-you" for the parts website, this is even cheaper than my go to places for the same exact parts.
Glad to hear that!
@@M539Restorations Thank you from me too. Got a Porsche 944 I'm restoring - Thanks again!
Excellent as usual professor …I’ve owned 3 of these well used 12 cyl beasts over the years, they can be very inexpensive to purchase and honestly not much more expensive to maintain than other large German cars. A few quirks: eg leaking intake manifold seals, two sets of some engine components. Very reliable engine with fewer problems than some 740s. Easy parts availability! BOTTOM LINE …HUGE TORQUE …HUGE SMILE
"Some Swedish high quality hose clamps, ABBA...." is that what you said? hahahaha
There is a brand called ABA that makes clamps
@@alexstromberg7696 and they are very good too. I use the blue ones but in the video he got the high pressure ones for fuel. ABA Sweden
@@gplusgplus2286 yeah I use them at work, they work
@@alexstromberg7696 ABA were taken over by NORMA GERMANY quite a few years ago, but the Swedish plant is still manufacturing these clamps with premium quality!
You know you're bound for a successful channel when people already like the video, comment good work, and say they cant for the next video all before watching the video that they are on. Good work brother keep it up.
Common working mans petrol head channel. Your understanding of the English isms is quality. Go bro
I'm so glad you got sponsored on this. You deserve it!
He is the one of the best BMW Technician on TH-cam! Great Job Bro
"The magnificient turd is alive" - man I nearly died there😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This is proper Friday night material! Kick back and relax!
" Ohhhh ohhh ohh oh.. I didn't connect the fuel pump.."'
After working for five days at my crappy job, you Sir, are a tonic! Thank you for the comedy to start my weekend!
This video was a recommendation on my homepage and I'm happy for that. I'm not a fan of BMWs in particular, but I like the way it's presented and edited. As someone who has been in the motor trade for almost 20 years, hats off to you for your knowledge, attention to detail and caring attitude towards vehicle maintenance. You have just gained a new subscriber.
"First start" episodes like this one are so fun to watch. All of the fuel system and ignition system work to start it safely, and then more troubleshooting. Finally, success! What a journey.
"Coooming up.." - Best way to spend a Friday night, no matter the weather, trouble and whatever else shit comes up.
I wish everyone had a mechanic like him, with such knowledge , quality job and great sense of humour.
That exhaust must have weighted a ton out of factory. Good thing you have the rust weight reduction mod installed.
I really, really admire this guy's patience, self control and dedication to his craft. I've worked on old cars enough to have bad memories of busted knuckles and stuff falling onto the floor (and rolling to the middle of the car - of course!) to appreciate what he's going through.
Thanks for posting about rescuing one of these magnificent V12 super sedans - the king of luxury sedans in the 1980's! My Dad had the first one here in our town in 87: granite grey on grey 88 750iL when I was 8 years old. I think you will really appreciate this car once you have it sorted - the short front overhang and forward front seat placement give the impression of a much smaller car when driving it, and the 296hp V12 is more than adequate for triple digit sprints on der Autobahn! My old man used to dust off L98 Corvettes on the highway regularly with the 750, as well as other more notable sports cars of the day. Sadly, that car is long gone and so is he, but I am contemplating buying one that I know of local to me after watching your video!
My father didn't had the 750 but the 735 manual. I even have a picture from when went to the dealer to buy an E38 with the E32 infront. Sadly I wasn't old enough to drive that car, but I had the opportunitie with the E38. But I remember when my (back then) neighbour got his driving license, he asked my father if he can take that car for a joyride. He was the oldest of the clique back then & we hopped in. Many years later, he became my Driving instructor & whenever I point that story from that particular day out, he get's embarassed (because of all that bullshit he did on that day). I really like the semi-agressive timeless look of that car. Sadly there aren't many around with low mileage & alltough there is one right now, I have other priorities.
The perfect sponsor, definitely going to check them out!
Consider subscribing? And you’re asking a guy who was 18 years old when this car was released by BMW. This is even better than watching the Games of Thrones.
I'd personally fast forward parts of that show, this is automotive gold.
That rear end is just gorgeous. It's a miracle that the E38 is even nicer :d
C’est une bonne chaîne, hein? 👍🏻😎
Par contre il porte des chaussures, le climat certainement 🧐
You possess a wonderful sense of humor sir. That makes me thoroughly enjoy your videos.
I'm impressed by your mastering of the English language. Your commentary is rich and under control. You must have been well loved as a child.
Just for info NBR stands for Nitrile Rubber and CR stands for Chloroprene rubber
@Götz von Berlichingen Correct but Nitrile rubber do just fine. Noone says butadiene wiseguy
@@John-ns9lr I remember when I ordered a beverage of The Coca‑Cola Company some time ago, and I received a ZERO beverage of The Coca‑Cola Company.
Wiseguys do say Nitrile Butadiene Rubber or short NBR, not Nitrle Rubber or short NR.
I enjoy watching the NBA on tv, the National Association.
@@SHINdanny Sure, the rubber factories that make the stuff dont call it Nitrile Rubber either. Not even on the wiki page it is called Nitrile Rubber. Oh wait it is. He is not wrong of course but I said that as well. Now fuck off
@@John-ns9lr "Now fuck Off" oh you won, congratulations!
Silent viewer since I got my E46 a year ago and I'm always stunned by how entertaining, wholesome and correct someone can be.
You inspire me, keep doing your work mate!
Having watched several of your videos I have to compliment you on your thoroughness. Most home mechanics would take lots of shortcuts that you don’t. I would have no problem buying a car from you. You use the right parts and know BMW’s and their idiosyncrasies.
I absolutely love the fact that you keep your mistakes in the video.
I am having too much fun watching your videos. You might be doing TH-cam as a side thing, but you actually teach people how to do their stuff, and you make it very simple. I feel like I can do all these services to a V12 by only watching your videos. Keep on making such a lovely content!
Can't wait for you to do a e34. I'm really hoping for a 3.8 M5 or a 540i I love these old BMW's!!!
*This channel is definitely becoming my favorite TH-cam channel. Love this guy*
When he said we're going to end part three, I was thinking it's just started man.
I'll admit I'm not mechanically minded whatsoever. First sign of any engine trouble it's straight to the garage. After watching a number of similar TH-cam channels, I have the upmost respect for car mechanics like this guy.
Love it that you are human sir - we all do “the fuel pump”. You are a champion mechanic 👨🔧
This type of videos make me want to restore my old golf, it looks so satisfying to hear it run well and to know that everything is nicely done and no corners cut.
10:19 ahhh the “fresh carbon-fiber towel”
best towels in the world 😂😂
Красавчик!!! У человека из нужного места руки растут!
Da da ! Jebola i Sam kak Sve nema problema nema osambila serbska i russia 💪
If someone was telling me that there is a German with a good sense of humor i would say..."come ooon". But here he is...Ninja flipping.And a guy that he is trying his best and he is for an IT guy , better mechanic from those that at least i met.Excellent.
I believe Sreten is Serbian.
Dear friend,you are inpiration to all of us that love to see these negleclected titans come back to decency.Keep up the excellent work you are doing!!!Cannot wait part 4......
Sreten, I have watched all your videos and love all of them. It took a while but it seems like the word is out "You are the man". Congratulations on the 400k+ subscribers you truly deserve it, I wish you all the best moving forward. Two thumbs up on being able to leave your I.T job to do what you really love, working on old BMW's. You have put an idea in my head about finding one of these neglected vehicles and bringing it back to life. I am an ex Master ASE certified mechanic so I can so all of the wrenching myself and make sure it is done properly.
You're a genuine inspiration to anyone interested in cars in any capacity, as well as being funny and hugely charismatic - thank you!
48 minutes and I never once skipped forward. Love your work!
Thanks for cheering me up dude 👍
What I like soo much about you: you have a genuine feeling to make other people happy. I have been working many years with BMW's in the 70's and the 80's and now I learn from you! From a 3.3.Li to you!!
"That looks like quick disconnect! Disconnect quickly please!"
😂😂😂 These should be renamed quick install lmao
The hilarious part is that they aren't called quick-disconnect, they are called quick-connect. No one ever promised the former.
One of the best looking 7 series being restored👌
You found Nemo! He’s near the access port in the trunk - of course.
Fair play for turning your passion into a full time work and quitting your job. I am sure you have loads of people who want to buy your projects before you even start. Best of luck!
I know the "I can edit this out and make it seem like I know what I'm doing" is a joke, but the fact you show it anyway does three things: you can make a joke about the silliness of it and we all laugh about it, you show the good the bad and the ugly about these kinds of projects, and it shows that sometimes (or oftentimes) the simplest possible solution is the solution.
Great video!
“The good thing is we have converted A/C, that means is likely going to work”. In my experience that means is likely not going to work since all the R134 leaked out of the system because of the lack of use and the fact that old hoses allow refrigerant to escape. A/C in pre-1994 cars sucks if you don’t have access to R12.
Love your work. I could literally watch you repair BMWs for hours. It gives me the encouragement to rebuild an early model 3 series convertible or possibly one with a folding tin top. While we love our BMWs here in Australia, there are not many trashed examples that you can buy cheap and then do what you do - especially convertibles. Can’t wait for the next episode, Lloyd.
These videos are just getting better with each new upload !! ... jammed packed with soooooomuch content! JUST FANTASTIC!! ( puts other TH-cam BMW Channels to shame )
This is the only guy I would ever trust with my car, Very knowledgeable and thorough. Fantastic content sir 👍🏼
Didn't connect the fuel pump, thought l was the only one that screwed up like that. Thank you for showing that, helps my confidence in my limited abilities.
I could be watching this stuff for hours 😄 I need to restore some bmw this year too, old bmws are brilliant
I look forward to these than any other creators as of late. Very gratifying to see such thorough work.
Liqui Moly have an extension hose for thier cans, It comes with the deisel intake cleaner. I feel like you could make good use of that with the fogging oil :)
man these videos are so re-watchable every couple of months i start all over again
Your effort to restoring everything is unmatched. You replaced those tiny gaskets near the fuel pumps? 99.99% of us wouldn't have done that. Whoever buys your cars are in for a mint vehicle. that is for sure.
@10:19 where do i get myself one of them carbon fiber towels. I need one
10 hours ago? How?
@@paulsteverodriguez3549 patreon early access i asume
on Daparto for sure
I put fogging oil in my coffee, now I have diarrhea.
Good one! Do it again.
Love that quote, time to take out the repair manual and panic.
I must admit, watching this video and seeing how you fix things makes me feel very relax
To hear an engine back to life is always awesome... let alone a V12...
Bought some Liqui Moly for my M3 because well Sreten says so. They should send him some more for this fine project!
The Magnificent Turd is actually the title of my autobiography.
"Welcome to part 3" (shows 2 fingers) 😂
Non the less, thoroughly enjoyed it!
That's the German three
People say new BMWs are complicated. Well, have a look at the engine bay of this classic one, great job with the work mate. Thumbs up.
You're the Bob Ross of vehicle restorations. Great commentary and happy little accidents.
This is my new favourite channel. You make the same noises as me when you drop stuff and bang your hands on things 😂😂😂
'AaaaAAAahhh'?
I think I’m even more happier than you because of the sponsor! Thats damn nice and you deserve it
Awesome, i didnt Plan to sleep anyways.
How the hell did you comment 16 hours ago??
@@matthiasweber2734 Patreon my friend. You should try it!
Quality video. Credit to you for being so thorough. Your like how I am in my mind before I actually do the job.
Absolutely brilliant work,I can't believe the last mechanic installed the fuel filter back to front unreal.Love your work , always learning off you enjoy that 🍺
"Welcome back to part three"
Holds up two fingers
Guess the scene from inglourious bastards's wasn't seems relevant with the what he did :/
@Alex Konstantinow Do you show only the thumb when the count is 1 or don't show any fingers at all?
“The beautiful turd is alive” - love this guy!
“Fresh carbon fibre towel” haha
Sreten, du machst mein Leben ein bisschen lebenswerter in diesen trüben Zeiten. Ich danke dir dafür!
Sreten, you make my life a little bit more worth living in these dreary times. I thank you for this!
Once again I would like to thank you for all the knowledge you share for my two BMWs. I have an 850i (6spd freshly painted original silver), and a 750il (freshly painted original Schwarz II black, both 1992). I do most of my own maintenance here in Texas. You've provided some invaluable insight to help me complete their full restoration. I lived in Germany for six years and learned a lot about BMWs. Many thanks again.
