    I’d like to say a big thank you for this video!! I have just completed this job but without out this video would have taken years to do! So thank you so much!
    Just a note for those who are planning to do this: i haven’t drop the coolant as suggested, i only lost about 200ml when disconnected and i blanked the 3 pipe ending keeping the coolant in the heater core. This will save you one job out of the many. I worked on my f10 523i N53 engine

      Yeah definitely will take some time haha

    16:25 you can take a 5mm Allen wrench and turn the arrow. That turns the tab sideways. 😅pops right off.

    Can you do a 2nd Gen Lexus IS350!! Expansion valve and or evaporator. What was the down time on this 535i job?

  • @transportcjohnson544
    @transportcjohnson544 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video please tell me where is the evaporator sensor located I didn’t see it in the video

  • @73937mario
    @73937mario 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video. But I still managed to screw it up. Went to turn on ac and all I’m getting is a loud sound from the blower motor working but no air through vents. Any ideas on where to start?

    Great video, man. Love it.
    I kinda wish your camera hadn't struggled to focus but yea.
    Also, how long did the entire process take??
    I have to get my vehicle's evaporator replaced next week and shudder at the prospect of the vehicle being dirtied in the process.

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's hard to say how long it took because we'd work on it after work for about 5ish hours a day or so for about a week

  • @AlfisGarage

    I did this job about 10 years ago on a E60 diesel and it is as much pain as it looks…. Now I have an AC issue on my F10 M5 - I’m praying it is not the evaporator! 😢

  • @MyTigre77
    @MyTigre77 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    How did you diagnose the evaporator? Thankyou

  • @jayem4467
    @jayem4467 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Tip for yall stuck on the heater core. Once you get the tabs off the hoses, use needle nose angled pliers to rotate them and break the seal

  • @mikewilson5398
    @mikewilson5398 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am thinking about to do this, but it's too hard..:( my AC also leaks, I can hear the hizzle sounds when AC is gone. but after a refill ,it only works for a year or so.. also I can still smell chemical smells.. Did you experience the same ? thanks a lot!!

  • @CaseyE-bn3vk
    @CaseyE-bn3vk 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What were the symptoms that you felt you needed to replace the evaporator? My car is high pressure on the low side and low pressure on the high side… heater and blower works just no a/c working …

  • @JohnSmith-yg8jk
    @JohnSmith-yg8jk ปีที่แล้ว

    Great tutorial !
    So if the bmw is not loosing freon but the ac does not work ( blows hot air) could it be the expansion valve the issue?

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  ปีที่แล้ว

      We just wanted to check for any leaks possibly

  • @MyTigre77
    @MyTigre77 ปีที่แล้ว

    What are your symptoms? Im getting a hissing sound from the front vents and losing ac.
    Great video by the way

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's very well a symptom

  • @theemkay11

    Good job guys.. i was wondering if this can be done without removing the center console what do you think?

    • @jayem4467
      @jayem4467 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No I tried. Because the center console is like a scoop

  • @randallboone9375
    @randallboone9375 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Or another option…a/c delete😂😂. But really, looks like a daunting task. Only worth it if you had another car to dd and would be good to just start it one day and do a little every day in phases until its done.

    Thanks for the instructions.. This is unfortunately on the cards for my f10. How long did the whole job take? I think I'd rather do an engine swap!

    • @zlord1199
      @zlord1199 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The evaporator is not located in the engine it's in the dash as you can see.

    • @MarcelHVAC
      @MarcelHVAC ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@zlord1199 he knows, but he said that he rather do an engine swap. So he prefers do a engine swap over this job.

    @joerod7176 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What year was the 535i you replacing the evaporator on? I’m replacing mine on the 2012 535I . The new evaporator part number you purchased will it fit my car?

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This was done on a 2013. I believe it should fit

  • @Serianise.
    @Serianise. 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    unfortunately I have to change the evaporator so I was wondering how many hours you did the whole operation.

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Man honestly probably a good full 20 hours or so. I mean granted, we would do a little bit of work every day after our full time jobs and it was a total of about a week or so but if we were to brake it down into hours, then probably 15-20.

  • @CaseyE-bn3vk
    @CaseyE-bn3vk 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    If you just wanna change out the evaporator sensor do you have to do all this?

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Depends where that sensor is located I guess.

  • @rohanamin4568
    @rohanamin4568 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have 2017 530 I. I went to the dealer and estimated my cost of $4800 but they offered to pay 75 percent of it. Just makes no sense to me how it goes out because my car only has 50 k miles on it and it's a very tough process.

    • @yourewrong16
      @yourewrong16 ปีที่แล้ว

      dude same here. i have a 2018 530i and same freaking issue. $5000 to get it fixed…

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have no clue. The diesel engines have different set ups, so i"m not sure

  • @shaaz_official8889
    @shaaz_official8889 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is it really a common issue though? If so, how often does it need to be replaced?

    • @YEVSBUILDS
      @YEVSBUILDS  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Apparently it's becoming a common issue because of maybe the design of the part? Who knows but BMW needs to make these a recall haha
