- The silver e46 is back. Don't know for how long but I hope that it'll leave my new workshop being a better car than when it came.
So the car I build broke down. The only thing I didn't touch meaning the starter motor died. Let's hope I'll be able to fix it myself and make a cool video out of it. Parts are already ordered so STAY TUNED!

Love the videos, really good to have in depth on n42/n46 engine. 🎉
Glad to hear :) I like making them and I’m not always right but I’m trying to share everything I know
Hi, thanks for the video, well presented. My car do not want to start, I accidentally started my car in second gear. My battery is new, everything on the dashbaord goes on, but when I turn the key nothing no sound. Any advise?
Great video, I like the way you explain everything in detail
Thanks a lot :) tried my best to make something useful 👌
this is amazingly helpful and you dont go on and on like some guys makeing d i y videos...thankyou!
Thanks a lot ;) i like that it helps 🙋♂️
we have the same car bro lets I'm interested in what you doing here :) maybe some retrofits? :)
Super super helpful my because it not everyone make content on these N42/46 engine
I’m glad I can help. There will be more n42/42 content in 2022 😉
Wouldn't it be easier to take out the alternator and the throttle valve to have more space to reach it?
Instead of taking out the intake? I don’t think so. Intake has a shape that would not make it easy if doable at all. This intake is huge on the bottom
How the hell do you even remove the bolt on the bottom, wtf, i cant fit anything in there
Thank you very much, video was extremely helpful!!

How i wish i was close to you i want to overhaul the engine of my Compact TI and i would definitely need your Help!!! Can you also do a video on how to replace the water pump on the compact..
You and me both! It would be awesome to be able to help you out with your car!
I’ll do my best to make this video as soon as possible 💪 I’ll keep you updated 😉
Just found my spare water pump ;) video is coming 💪
Sorry it took so long but I just uploaded a video about water pump. Made for you 🙌
Im going to try to replace this now thanks man
Anytime! Take it slow and you’ll make it 💪
Amazing diy video! Thanks a lot man! You save my day. By the way, do you know if the bolts/nuts that attach the intake manifold to the cylinders block need to be tighten with torque wrench and if so, which torque do i need to apply? Thanks and keep going! Amazing job
Glad it helped 🙌 that’s why I make those videos. Honestly I think there is a torque spec for those bolts but I never used it. I tighten them by feel. I’ll check it quickly and let you know 😉
Ok you need to check what studs are there exactly. I think they were m6. But just in case Here are other cases too:
M8 - 22Nm
M7 - 15Nm
M6 - 10Nm
Hope this helps :)

Dzięki Kamil 😎✌️✔️
Jeśli tylko pomogłem to nie ma za co 🙌🙂

How did you know it was the starter though ? I think my starter is also dead. Used the car, parked it, next more no crank just a click. All electronics are working, just in case I fully charged the battery but still nothing only a click. Also tried spare keys but nothing. So my guess is the starter, but is there anyway to diagnose it before removing the intake manifold ?
So in my case it actually wasn’t the starter after all. It was engine ground. You can check it too. It’s attached to the engine mount from the exhaust side.
If ground is fine you can check if it’s starter by directly applying power to the starter relay in the ecu box ;)
@@gorillaprojectcar Thanks, will check out that ground wire next
You can hit the starter with a stick or with a rod from underneath the car while someone is starting it. I did tha just yesterday and it was indeed a bad starter.
that's a good advice but I'm usually alone in workshop. Last time I did that trick was 7 years ago on excavator. There was a lot of things I could do better but starter was going bad anyways as I tried it out of the engine later. anyways it's how I learn 😉 thanks for commenting 🙌
and how was it? Did you get the car fixed?
very helpfull video man !
Anytime 🙌
Допоміг, дякую

Hey bro awesome 👌

What headlights are those??
Regular headlights for h4 bulb 😉 all compacts had those
Can you remove it from the bottom on the car ?
If your a wizard

Nope
Man, i would follow you and i like the video, but please stop speaking to much. Everyone needs to see just the steps.
