    No idea who this guy is, no idea why TH-cam has been suggesting such good small channels lately but im not complaining. Subscribed

      I mean I hate to say it but it is pretty obvious that TH-cam is no longer going to be allowed to cater their algorithm so hard. They’re trying to make some prudent changes pending the incoming administration.
      I’m not complaining, it’s been SO MUCH easier to find good, high detail, quality mechanical and technical videos recently.

      They’re great engines! Pity that BMW has fallen to smaller turbo 4 cylinder in the majority of their newer models.

      My GF had a really clapped out E39 523i once. Rust everywhere, Exhaust fell off, Suspension was loose...
      But that M52B25TÜ ran smooth as cas be every single day 👍🏻 even though it had 240.000km on it.

The 3 dials, retro gaming style (i really liked the use of TF2/Half Life music, its fits really well!), and the informations about engines are great. Be sure to continue with this style. It would be cool to see engines in other Bmws maybe.. idk e36 (even though e36 is very similar to e46), or maybe some Mercedeses (idk.. w124 maybe) but whatever. With this style you can you video about anything, and it would entertaining anyways :DD Keep it up! Its gooooood.

    Good and informative video. Owned 2 m47. One in e46 2004 and one in e83 2007(with DPF) both very, very reliable. I sold e46 few years ago with 330k km and current e83 is at 314k km. As far as the engine goes, only thing I replaced apart from regular maintenance were thermostats, although e83 had problems with clogged up EGR which I disabled, but DPF is still working as it should. Looking at b47 for my next daily, either an f25 or an f11.

    Owned a M43B19TU and the 1.6 in the e36 I think this M43b19 is a very stout and reliable engine. It feels like raw strong power. My N42B20A e46 wagon was a fiery little beast that wanted to rev and loved but but worst engine to own. M47 and M57 are brilliant but M47 are underappreciated. The M54 is now my daily and love it, lots of maintenance but was a feeling it is to controll one

      I’ve always loved the look of the E38s! That wide front end is super menacing, and with the V12 I bet it can back up those looks. I hope that eventually I can cover all most if not all BMW models and their engines, but the E38 (as well as E53, Z3, E39) are definitely higher up on the list of videos I want to make sooner.

    11:36 thats m50b25 in e36, not m52.

  • @oliestarkyshitposting5647
    @oliestarkyshitposting5647 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Id like to say, for anyone lookng to buy an e46, go for the 328i version.
    Simply because the M52TUB28 has better oil control rings around the pistons. The M52 uses much less oil than the M54 does. And while you wont get the power of the M54B30 engine, you can still just swap the headers for catless ones, get the ZHP camshafts and get a proper tune, and you should see power increase from the 192 HP to somewhere around 240.

    The M54b30 is a masterpiece,
    Once you wrap your head around the fact that to do any work such as ccv ,starter motor, or crankshaft position sensor,you will be taking off the inlet manifold! it's very easy to work on,
    And of course, with practice, you can take the inlet manifold of in 40 minutes,
    Other serviceable jobs like coil packs and plugs are done on the top with ease.

    - 170hp N46 engine has a different cam (more lift, slightly longer duration) vs the 150hp version. The intake also differs slightly. You cannot just "upgrade" the DME form a e46 N46 with the one of an e90 - the E90 uses a different immobilizer and the wiring harness is different.
    - the 2.5L M52TU (323i) uses the exact same engine block as the M54 325i (same part number) - blocks that have very little in common with the M52. In fact the 1998-2000 M52TUB25 and 2000-2004 M54B25 share the exact same block and crank. The differences are pistons, rods, intake cam, piston rings, intake manifold, DISA and throttle body (M54 is drive by wire).

    • @BabaJansGarage
      @BabaJansGarage  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I completely forgot about the 170hp version of the N46! The DME upgrade is more of a theoretical upgrade than one that you can actually do. It’s fully possible, but completely over complicated, I just added it as from what I’ve researched, there are VERY few power increasing modifications available for the N4X series of engines. As for the M52TU and M54 similarities, I did miss the block connection between the 2.5 liter variants.

    Great video, congrats! I just want to point out one thing I have noticed. Your 0-100 km/h sections are off. I don't know where you sourced it from but they are wrong values. In my particular case, as an M52TUB20 owner, I can definitely tell you that 8.3 seconds for 0 to 100km/h is not doable, the correct number is 9.9 seconds, and it is also the official BMW data for this. Based on this observation, I would asume almost all your 0 to 100 km/h sections are wrong, but you might want to double check on them. Nonetheless, awesome work and documentation!

    Very good idea for the video, but I would ask for more distinguishing between TU and non TU engines. The M43TU is very different from the non TU M43, as is the M52TU from the M52.
    Before I delved deep into these engines, I would not get how different they are, and that the Technical Update (technisch uberarbeitet) is indeed a major change.

      Definitely something I’ll do more in the future. I didn’t want to focus too much on the predecessors to the e46 engines as it would probably make the video even longer than it already is, but for the E36 engine video I’ll definitely go more in depth into the differences

    Great video. A bit of inaccuracies here and there, like how the M52TU would be somewhere in the middle between M52 and M54, but those are things that only people really into these engines would know. M52 it's actually much closer to M54 than to M52. To be honest, BMW should have called the M52TU - > M54 and the M54 -> M54TU; it would have been much closer to reality. Blocks and heads are absolutely the same on the M52TU and M54, headers and intake designs are identical (the intake is just larger or smaller), ECUs are very similar, sensors are the same or similar etc. etc. Essentially, you can convert easily an M52TU to be an M54 or viceversa, but you cannot convert an M52 easily to an M52TU. Some stuff is outright impossible.

    Great Video. But what means Poten.? I may missed that part. If it's potential...i don't see much difference to performance

    • @BabaJansGarage
      @BabaJansGarage  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks! Yep, it means potential, as in tuning potential to make more power than it does stock. It’s based on both the engines ability to push more power than it did originally as well as the availability of components you can fit to it to boost power (turbos, remaps, bolt ons etc.)

      @Der_Diskriminator หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thats Logic. I completely missed that as a refference or context in the video 🙈. Please keep doing this format! I would also add economy as major criteria. btw i owned a e36 323i for 9 years. So i can understand how much you value the m52!

    M54B22 is engine with worse fuel consumption as ownership proves than M52 and also higher oil consumption but both engines are still rlly good and reliable and still fun even with 400 000km driven

      I think the Alpina tuned/modified engines need a video of their own, they’re way too cool to get lumped in with the stock production engines. Same with the GTR!
