The fact that you are buying and fixing a more expensive BMW shows the success you are having. Can't wait to see a video in the future where you buy and fixing up an M3 or an Alpina.
this dude alone is motivating me to learn about car mechanics and how to fix car things.
M3, M5 and Alpina are overhyped badly. I want to see more regular BMWs being fixed. Everything that is not an M or Alpina, actually.
@@legioner9 alpinas aren't that bad

Diesel Sreten just posted 😎👌
when you know, you know!
Better than him!
@@matteoceroni8551 True. Sreten lately is a bit weird.
@@legioner9 I'm out of the loop. What happened to him?
@ Well, he changed a bit, I mean, I liked his calm style from Project Dubai and the older projects, but lately he screams a bit too much for me.
The most amazing thing is that you managed to pump out the old fuel without laughing.
With no weird loud music on. Just pure footage
that breaker bar trick to move the car is so smart,havent thought of that,will definetly be using that next time
Absolute quality. No over excited American accents. No stop start stating the obvious. no crap music. This is what you tube is for.
Make lots of videos geeza
This video was recommended to me and i just kept watching while eating my food, that means you're doing an absolute great job of creating content! Keep it up.
Just wanted to share that you really encouraged me to work on my E90 M47 engine, as an IT guy I was really surprised that I managed to take apart and put together everything and even engine started without any issues, especially that it was my first time taking injectors and valve cover off. Had my dad helping me but he barelly knew anything about diesel engines, especially BMW ones. Thank you for your videos and effort you put into making them, they really helped me and were really usefull
I found your channel a few days ago, and there is 1 problem with it. I cannot stop watching it and I no longer have any content to watch as I've watched it all! Very much enjoying it mate, keep it up
Dude, I was so happy I saw the notification. Best mechanic TH-camr ever.
48:36 to prevent the brake fluid from leaking out, you can hold the brake pedal down slightly with something. I use a wooden plank between brake pedal and seat
Damn that is dirt cheap. Really nice one. I had a 318d F30 N47 and sold it last year at 223k km.
What a job that was, draining flushing and replacing the fuel system. Bloody hell.
It looked like you got a decent deal on the replacement high pressure pump and injectors; I would have thought they would have been cripplingly expensive.
I've drove a Grand Cherokee with the same engine. It was lifted with big tyres and really felt unstable. I can't imagine what this Wrangler feels on the road.
Crazy stuff man. I really love your videos
Your attention to detail, camerawork, editing and thoroughness is amazing , iv seen many n47 videos but this one is top !
I'm not a mechanic by any means but your videos are so helpful and inspire me to work on my own bmw diesel tractor
Engineers must watch this content to learn about bad car component design and fitting. That bearing replacement was a killer job. Well done for all your efforts 👏
I have never seen such a rusty f30. My f31 from 2015 was like new from underneath. However nice video keep up the work 👍🏻
Its norway. Its normal
my E90 with 455000 had less rust :D
@@Gtrgtegt My '92 E36 has almost no rust, here in portugal we don't get snow, barely any rust in the cars from the interior, and the ones from the cost usually have a bit of rust.
I found your channel about a week ago. Well... since then I watched every video. So glad to see another lenghty one. Could watch them all day. Keep up the good work
🤌
Same
Your energy is phenomenal! I always go the lazy way and buy a new wheelhub from febi which are reasonably priced.
You should install CP4 disaster prevention kit. It's about 200 Eur and in case of HPFP failure it saves the whole fuel system. Only thing that must be replaced is the HPFP itself.
Crazy to see what you've disassembled and reassembled! This video will definitely come in handy anytime. :)
I have the same car with b47 engine. Never had a problem. I got a recall from bmw to replace the egr cooler and airbags
48:40 Sounded like a start of a dark spell from suburbs of Lithuania
because he is lithuanian
@@lauris8887 the way he shouted "EIK!" lol
EIK TU N**** Laughed a LOT
@@shaimann425I know what followed after that...
ziuriu pirma jo video, ir butent tam momente supratau, kad gal ir ne norvegas jis ;D
Gotta love Bosch CP4 fuel pumps. They make technicians a lot of money. 😂 Nice work, as usual.
Really nice work again! So happy that you bought a modern F-series after many older E-series cars. Would like to see you flipping F10/11 also. Keep up posting!
In Lithuania I don't think environment protection guys would allow us to wash cars with shampoos and etc on the street and that's crazy :D BTW nice vid :)
For those wondering: 80.000 NOK = €6.828,56
Reasonable
not bad, in Romania with this kind of money you can get a E39 in good shape, a E60 in mediocre shape and maybe a E92 , all diesel, and that's about it.
That’s $12,500 New Zealand dollarbucks here. You can get a higher mileage F30 320d sold new in NZ or lower trim Japanese imported car for that money, easily.
E90 320d are never over $10,000 these days.
I’m surprised they’re as expensive as they are in Europe.
@@zeroyon4562 used jp market cars bring down the prices wherever they're available. They're very uncommon in EU (mainly because EU is LHD), so the prices are higher.
@@zeroyon4562 I dont know the market prices in Germany of such car, but only to See the price differents, in Germany you Are paying 4€ and in Norway 9 € for a half Liter of Beer 😊
You just make me want work on my shitbox again. Thanks💪
Man your abilities are incredibile and the way you make the work look so easy and effortless is awesome! Had to follow and can't wait to see more of your work! Keep it going like this, cheers!
It was similar times when i commented on Mat Armstrongs videos before it went viral and blowed up. I am genuinely happy to see this type of car repairs that many middle class people have. Keep it up man!
If you block the pressed brake pedal, the fluid will not leak and you will not get air in the system. With this method, bleeding the system is very quick. Greetings from a viewer from Poland
Great video from California our cars never rust
I’ve been thru salvage inspections and annual inspections in Texas an California not even close to what Europeans have to experience my inspection where horn wipers and vin check an back on the road 😂
great video man. it was funny that you were wondering why the bearing were so hard to remove, the inner hubs looked like they'd been at the bottom of the ocean for years, same goes to the diff, damned rust, I'm lucky to live in southern europe when it comes to rust free cars haha.
waiting for the next one!
I have the exact same car. My hp fuel pump failed at 7,500 miles. Same damage resulted. Cost about $9,500 to replace entire fuel system. Insurance paid it. Car has been fine since,now have 134,000 miles. Lesson learned: Only use high quality diesel fuel.
Dropping a magnet into the tank gets 98% of the shavings out if you have the pump running. Your way is better.
This design fuel pump is another improvement from Bosch/BMW.
"Hey.The old fuel pump very rarely went wrong. Let's improve it!". The same shit is fitted to VW Audi stuff with the same results.
A few owners have fitted a fuel filter in the supply/return lines to limit the damage.
At 10.40 you also see a plastic coolant tube on the side of the head - you should replace this when the inlet manifold is off as it will break eventually - and typical BMW - you have to remove the inlet manifold to access one bolt.both sides of
Good tips, i spoke to one guy, and he said that depends on the sitation and the hpfp, because sometimes the shavings are aluminium and then the magnet doesn’t pick them up, not sure if that is true tho
For the love of god, if anyone is having a silly idea to add additional filter in the supply line, do it between the pump and high pressure fuel pump in the engine, not fuel tank pump and the pump. Some even manage to put additional filter backwards.
Well done and beautifully documented. Looking forward to your next (F11) project 😉
perfect timing! I just picked up an estoril blue N26 M-sport F30 with 113k miles and I got it for $5.8k USD, same as yours.. no dents, scratches.. it's in great shape aside from the timing chain having some slack - so we'll see what happens
WTF, man, how come he has such low subscribers❓️❓️❓️The kid is a fricking legend.
Unreal, dealing with that rear hub, my gosh, props to you! 😊
Very nice car but so much surface rust at the underside of the car. Love the interior. Keep up the good work!
Bro allein dafür, wie du das Auto in die Garage bekommen hast, bekommst du von mir ein Abo, ein Like und ein Kommentar 😂❤
It would be nice to see an F10 as well!!! Love those cars.
Look at 44:36 and see what is standing there... 😮
Never seen the ratchet trick before to move the car, that is genius!
Man alone your very good.Im from South Africa 🇿🇦 Cape Town I can't wait to see your next project
Pff that's a lot of rust underneath the car for that age😮. Nice job keeping another one on the road👍
Godt nyttår!🍾 F serie :O Spennende! 🍿
Hi bro...i don't know if anyone told it in the comments below, and i just started watching the video and came running to tell...that ticking noise you hear, is the parking pawl trying to insert. Since you put the car in neutral manually (i assume it's an 8HP and it doesn't have the 5mm hex , so you had to trap the gear lever with the case ) when you don't go all the way with the lever, it makes this ticking sound. Because parking pawl is spring loaded.... I'll keep watching, keep it up. !! I have seen many many of your E series videos and iit actually is my favourite Netflix series right now!😂
Use Lanogaurd to remove rust spray on, and it goes straight to work like new.
Much appreciated hopefully i dont need this video later but useful to know how mine works
Very good job as usual with both car and the video editing. Thank you legend!
Looking forward to the next one
Smashing video, thanks for this! It helped me a lot in preparing my mind, I have to replace the valve cover seal and remove the injectors on my F31 soon. Very good camerawork and editing.
Only one thing you did not right is fushing fuel pump in tank. It has magnets inside and its not possible to clean it good, only one way is to mount new pump in tank. 🙂
Interesting video, keep it going 👌😀
The fuel filter will catch the rest of the shavings , and if the tank pump goes it's a quick fix. No need to spend extra money when it still runs.
Nice job!!
But man oh man, those Norwegian winters with all the salt really has a bad rust effect on the cars.
I noticed too. Lots of rust starting at the underside. I would certainly treat my car there with some good protection.
The CEO of N47 hits again! 😅 nice work bro🤝
Nice to see a new model on the channel, very enjoyable video!
great rescue and video tutorial! I'm curious about the new car!
Happy New Year to all!! Thank you for the great video!!! Hope next one will come soon!! Keep doing the job in your way!!! 🤩😍🥰
Wauw! Echt goed gedaan. Leuk om de video te bekijken! 👍
Keep up with the videos. Definitely a future star rebuilder like Mat Armstrong xd. Wishing you best of luck. Your videos made me consider changing the turbos on my 335xi on my own and I'm waiting for the warmer weather now to start doing it.
Technical inspection every 2 years, good idea! Wish other countries applied the same common sense!
Well done again, really enjoyed the build on the F30 🏆
Regarding the wheel bearing removal, I find it much easier to press the splined shaft out of the hub first using the long screw normally provided with the slide hammer kit and then pull the hub out with the slide hammer. Using a pneumatic hammer to drive the splined shaft out works well too.
Also, once the hub is removed, heat the inner race rapidly and it usually just falls off.
Great job bro
2025 is Diesel Sretens year!🙏 Absolutely amazing work!
Beautiful interior
I didn't even know bmw had literally a specific "modern" line on the F30 generation! And it actually feels m more modern than I thought, considering the mainly utilitarianism interior bmw of this era usually to be.
Great job, my friend. I like your videos very much. And the editing is very good. I like that you work on more regular BMWs, and not some TH-cam overhyped M or Alpina. Do not change a thing. 👍🤗
I was imagining a bolt falling into the runners of the engine the entire video. A few shop rags are much cheaper, both in cost and effort, than tearing the engine down.
still waiting for a bmw 745li to be worked on lol! i had to park mine until further notice. but man keep up the great work your doing
Awesome video. Can't understand why you don't have more subs. In time i think you'll get super popular.
very very beautiful car!! incredible setting for a 320d! its very rare in this setting! good repair and you have a great car for cheap! good job, ok its an n47 engine but the car is very clean!!
A super job and a lovely car. Happy new year 🚙🛻🚗
To stop brake fluid coming out you can to push and prop brake pedal, this way you won't have brake fluid constantly dripping
Always a joy to watch. Keep up the great content
lot of hard work here , well done sir
Thank you man, I love your videos. Wish you a Happy New Year and many new subscribers! 🎉
I found your channel a few days ago, I really like the content you make, keep it up!
This channel is so underrated love the videos
Your reaction to the full tank was hilarious 😂
I can smell this video 😄
haven t even seen 30 seconds of the video and i ve hit the like button allready
Thanks brother for always making the impossible possible, letsgoooo
Fantastic work and video as always. Alwayes hyped when I see you drop a new video. I'm so glad you're being consistent with uploads also. =)
You make great video's, no bullshit, pleasant to watch. Thanks!
One trick for you to adjust handbrake: compress the suspension and then do the adjustment. In this way it comes perfect since you take out the tension from cables
Nice job!
Can`t wait for the next video!
I was half expecting you to yank the whole rear hub out and hold a "press conference" instead of keep beating on it with a slide hammer. 😂
Very god work… again! Thanks for all the tips and tricks. You inspired me to start a N43 rebuild with your other videos. Maybee I will try a diesel next time :-)
Great video buddy. Fabulous work!
Keep going !
what a beautiful f11 u got for next video)
just found this channel, feel like i'm watching an early streten video, keep it up!
Realy good job, it turns out to be an amazing car again, although I was a bit shocked about the amount of rust on the bottom side that might need attention soon.
Happy New Year! May it be the year you get a car lift!
Fantastiskt bra filmat och underhållande. 👌
Parabéns pela qualidade do serviço e mostrar que o trabalho compensa o ganho. Abraço do Brazil.
Świetna robota jak zawsze, super się ogląda👌
Love the color!
Great job, well done and educational!
My new favorite car channel.
