Top tip if you're working alone, when going to re-install the steering column use a couple of jack stands to hold it up until you get a few bolts in. It's a heavy boi and bloody awkward to manoeuvre into place.
This video helped a lot, thanks very much! No idea how you got your column out so easily though, I had to remove the motor in situ as I couldn't get enough of a gap otherwise. You also make getting the connectors off the back of the motor look very easy - it took 2 of us about an hour to get them out and had to remove the seat ha!
It's always the case with TH-cam videos, it all seems so easy until you try first hand😅 Still great for us amateur mechanics to have these videos as reference
Great video of process. I sold my 2003 Z4 , which I loved, because I got nervous with the steering issue. I cannot believe bbw did not address this issue in all of those years! Watching this video confirms that I should stay away from those years - I went though a similar issue with the Porsche IMS bearing issue. Anyway thanks for the video
Hi thanks for detailed video. There are a couple of sections that were missing some vital information however. Removing the immobiliser plug. This requires me to destroy it in order to remove it as I wasn’t aware of the locking and release mechanism. Removing the column. I’ve snapped my clutch sporting hook in the process. This requires you to decouple the spline inside the engine bay in order to remove it.
Very good video. I don’t have this issue but I read it’s quite common. There is a company in UK that rebuild short circuited module for Z4 including powersteering unit
Salut Ovidiu. Asta e primul meu comentariu scris pe TH-cam. Nu obisnuiesc sa las comentarii dar munca pe care o depui m-a impresionat. Imi place foarte mult felul cum ai garajul pregatit, faptul ca esti foarte minutios si atent la detalii. Si eu sunt la inceput de drum, deocamdata lucrez doar cu ISTA si alte programele pentru diagnoza/codari, dar fara a detine un garaj. Imi doresc pe viitor sa ajung cel putin la nivelul la care esti tu. Te urmaresc cu cea mai mare placere. Spor !
Salut Claudiu , ma bucur sa aud ca te inspir , acum depinde de felul tau daca absorbi de la toti tot ce e bun si te ambitionezi sa faci lucrurile corect nu doar in auto in general in viata , poti realiza ori-ce the sky's the limit ! . Garajul , sculele , anturajul tu ti-le faci
Great video - Thanks I just purchased a 2003 z4 with the SMG transmission and I have noticed the sticky steering a few times so I was wondering if I would need to find a specific steering colum for this vehicle or will one from a manual transmission work?
Hello please reply, I did this exact process, but I used the ignition switch that the second hand column came with. Now my car will not start. Could this be way?
This is a very good and helpful instruction ; professional 😊 just a few question; - can you recommend a place to buy a reworked steering column? - Do you disconnect battery during the work - how do you ensurer correct position (angle) for steering wheel and steering shaft Kindly regards Åsmund
Hi ! Great video ! I wondering if you can help me with some advice about my z4 bmw , after several days of heavy rain car start to have problems ; indicators dont flash on dasboard but they still workimg outside, air bag is on , air condisioning stop working no cold air, roof stop working . I check all modules for any water damage but they perfectly dry , roof motor is relokated long time ago than is no water in it, diagnostic dont comunikate wth air bag module , air con , only comunication is with engine , brakes, and claster , what can be ? Have you got any idea where can be problem ? Thank you in advance .
Hello, you need to properly diagnose that car, and when I say diagnose, I don't mean only to scan the car for error codes. You probably have one module that is using ibus network pulling that network to ground, and the rest of the modules can't communicate between them. That's why you can't see turn signal in cluster
Thank you for respond to my question, I already solve the problem which was Ipod interface that was faulty , disconectin it all and reset EWS as car refuse to start.
Nice video and you sure do make it look easy. I'm having issues with my steering, but I can read codes with INPA. Getting error 610E and 6124 when I read EPS error codes. These come up even when the car is cold so I think it must be a temp reading error. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Absolutely AWESOME video! I bought a replacement steering column on ebay and it came WITHOUT a key. Do you know if its possible to remove/replace the ignition WITHOUT the key? I'm not having any luck with locksmiths and wondering if a dealer would have the capability to remove ignition without the original key? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!! I love your videos!!!
Thanks for the video M Ovidiu. Finally somebody does a breakdown of how to remove the EPS on a Z4. You make it look really easy. I have slightly heavy steering on my Z4. The problems all started after I had complete failure of the electrical system and I had to replace the Alternator. Steering has never been the same since. Two elctricians have looked at if but can find no problem with the torque sensor, steering angle sensor, ECU and voltage level. Feels fairly heavy especially at slow parking speeds. Do you think I ultimately need a new EPS? Where are you and can I come and visit to repair.
Question, I'm about to do that job, for my own car, is the same part for standard than automatic transmission? Or are all the same? Thanks in advance! Great video
nice car, you make it look so easy. do you still do retrofits? Maybe they are a lot more work than repairs. I have a 2013 7 series that is missing several options and always wondered whether it would be worth attempting a retrofit of some of the features like adaptive cruise or lane keep assist. of course you already have videos on this but it's hard to know where to start, what part numbers and programming I might need. of course i'm not asking for anything, I like all of your videos, but if you get any retrofit work I'd love to watch you work on it

I have the same problem with the steering and have tried most fixes online. I think as you indicated the motor controller electronics is defective. Can u remove the motor without removing the whole column? Trying to simplify my life and send the unit away to the UK for repair. Thoughts would be appreciated.
You have to follow steps until you lower the column, after which you will be able to remove the electric motor from the steering column, but be very careful that if you do something wrong and move it from position you risk breaking the inner band from the torque sensor !! !
@@MOvidiu I note that you appear to have the steering locking tool in place. Did u have to reset any of the steering setting when u replaced the column. Was this a new column or a used one. Thanks

Hi, juste changed the EPS on a Z4 E85. Unfortunatly, After change and code cleared, the problem is still here. Is this necessary to encode the VIN of the car into the EPS? Thanks in advance
Unfortunately you need another one, is possible that the steering box was bad before you mounted or you have mounted it wrong and broke the ribbon cable for the tork sensor, that error is for the tork sensor!
This beauty is ready to show off her sexy lines on coastal driving routes. Let me ask you a question, how do you ensure that the steering column and steering wheel are correctly aligned with the wheels after replacement? Do you need to mark or measure something or is it just magic? 😉
if you rely on magic it won't work out :) the direction must be aligned before disassembly, and the steering column must be set to 0 , it has 2 turns and a little on the left and identical on the right
Thanks for sharing your knowledge Ovi. I really don’t like misplaced steering wheels pointing to the moon, looks unprofessional. But there are probably a lot of mechanics out there now who wish they knew this before teardown 😂
The fact that the steering wheel will remain crooked will be the smallest problem !! the serious problem is that if it is not perfectly aligned the flexible band for airbags and controls will break in all BMWs, and in this Z4 the electric column will be destroyed because the sensor for torque it has the same band as the airbag
Not only do you have the knowledge to do this you must also be a contortionist! If this ever went out on my z2003 I think I would sell it for parts! What of a job you did on this problematic idiocy from BMW!
Top tip if you're working alone, when going to re-install the steering column use a couple of jack stands to hold it up until you get a few bolts in. It's a heavy boi and bloody awkward to manoeuvre into place.
That's exactly what's wrong with my Z4 2003. You make it look so easy to fix. But I know you worked very hard. You are awesome.

The fact that the steering wheel will remain crooked will be the smallest problem !! the serious problem is that if it is not perfectly aligned the flexible band for airbags and controls will break in all BMWs, and in this Z4 the electric column will be destroyed because the sensor for torque it has the same band as the airbag
Good episode, but ugly BMW model ;) ;)
I wish i had walked right past this junk heap car on the sales lot.!!
Not only do you have the knowledge to do this you must also be a contortionist! If this ever went out on my z2003 I think I would sell it for parts! What of a job you did on this problematic idiocy from BMW!
