great video but the torque specs to be wrong. 100nm is far to high for the e12 bolts. our bolts snapped well before 100nm and from our research the torque spec seems to be closer to 65nm. not sure about the other bolts but i would double check before using any torque specs from this video.
Just got my second 328, after crashed the first one on the Nürburgring. You're channel is just awesome guy ;) Keep up with the good work ! Cheers from France
Thanks heaps! Zellus Cars! Wow, it would be a dream to drive on the ring! Sucks that you crashed it but good that you have another one now! Thanks for watching!!

Done this yesterday following the instructions from this video. Perfect! Had it removed in under 2 hours, with most time spend with sway bar bolt on the exhaust side (really helps to have someone to counter lock the bolt). Thanks a lot!
Dude's making this look pretty easy, but I found it to be not quite so. Skill maybe differs, so there's that. Took me half a bloody day, and it also for nothing, was trying to get rid of a whine which I thought was coming from the diff, but it turned out (later, unfortunately, after replacing the thing) it was actually a wheel bearing. Which was another pig of a job, taking me another half a day to do. P.S. Love the vids man, keep it up! E36 fan as well! *thumbsup*
Real nice presentation, enjoyable, and so informative. Thanks so much for making my morning less stressful. I will be doing this this week to install a higher gear ration.
Nice motivational video, Big brain time for those not wanting to get out from under the car a thousand times, wheels off stick a screwdriver in the rear discs (vented type) this will enable you to remove the half shaft bolts without using the handbrake.
great video. just bought an e36 and the rear diff bushings need replacement, I found a 3.91 LSD on marketplace too, so I'm thinking of throwing in while I'm at it.
nice video! just a tip but you should say the side of the bolts when you go over the instructions, this was me/viewers know what size wrench to grab makes it 10x easier. quality video
Hey nice car bro.I love my 328i .I need to do my subframe bushings and i am putting in a new shorter ratio 3.07 diff.Good content for me watching people who have been there and done that!!
Anyone who has a bimmer whether e36 e46 e90 many bolts are torx bolts especially inside the engine I highly suggest getting a set even if you aren’t doing a diff or just doing the diff because you will need em sooner or later
Thanks for the video mate, this helps me out allot. One question, I've heard the bearings in the American diffs are weak, mines already making noise with 115k miles, would you recommend having them replaced at a differential shop or replacing the differential for a used one? Thanks again
+Gabriel Sandoval I guess it depends how long you are planning to keep the car. If I was you, I would buy an LSD while you are at it. If you are keeping the car any length of time, I would go new bearings. Thanks, I am glad the video helped you :)
I finally saved up for an lsd. I went to go swap it for the welded diff I have now. But I can’t get any clearance to the two bolts in the very back. Axels and other mounting points came off nice. I just cannot figure out how to leverage the car back two. It looked a lot easier in the video but idk man
Did you have any trouble getting the diff removed from the driveshaft the first time you did this? I have been trying and trying and it's as if it was fused together. All bolts are removed just can't get it to budge.
great video. looking at getting a 3.91. feel a bit better doing it myself . keep up the vids! do videos about intake,throttle body, throttle cable,etc.
I've been wanting to swap the 3.91 out of my car. It's just too short for daily driving imo. It's hard to avoid the engine revving too high just trying to get to speed and cruising at 100kph is over 3000 rpm. I'm sure it's worse for fuel economy.
@@sigmaoctantis_nzbroo I’m having the same problem at 60mph I’m 4000 rpm! I burn so much gas and I stay off the highways. I ordered a 2.91 e30 medium diff off eBay and I’m going to install it this week pray for me
Nice video man, i have a question, the switch of the cover, the one that is beside of the filling bolt. I think its named inductive sensor, is it for the velocimeter ? Thks man
Appreciate the video for sure. Was wondering if you would answer a question for me. I got one stripped bolt ...tried near everything...im looking at either cutting the boot off to get that runber out of the way to get one good bite on it and hope for the best or cut it off and drill it out and peoceed from there? Thank you for your time.
How would you remove the half shafts from the diff if the entire rear end is out of the car? i.e. can't put in in gear or use handbrake. I picked up an open diff to replace my welded diff and it came with the axles (half shafts) and im trying to take them off but it just spins
Hello beautiful how are mate I’m about to do my 92 320i diff and I need to know how long it take to replace it the on I have in my car I just bought is wielded and I have to replace it to pass inspection.
I need help plz i changed my engine from e36 318i automatic to m50 engine manual transmition but i don't swap the dif and i noticed that he can't give me the acceleration i need it My question is if it is recommended to swap a 325 dif ?
Greta video man!! What tool did you remove the driveshaft bolts with? I tried a ratchet and breaker bar but they are stubborn! very limited space in there too
+Euro Touge thanks dude! I linked two spanners together for more leverage. They are stubborn aye! Guess you don't want them coming off aye haha All the best dude!
hey question my buddy his old diff locked up and his wheels can't move would I have a problem getting to some of the bolts? we are swaping it out for another one but since this old one on his car is locked being the wheels can't move how would I be able to make the wheels move to get to some of the bolts will I have a issue? thanks
+Iam Moetic good question man. Not too sure tbh, maybe someone one here might be able to help. You will need to figure out what is actually locking the wheels up to start with and go from there. Try checking the brake calipers to start with :) Hope you get it sorted man!
thanks bro we got it it started moving outta no where lol but dude a pain to put it it back in to get it to line up to the bushing but we got it after all that bench pressing lol

Bought a '98 328is a a few days ago, will be putting an LSD in it in the spring, just wanted to say this video is super helpful, thanks for posting!
+Jeremy Webber awesome! That is a very nice car bro! Glad this video helped you :)
Jeremy Webber i have the same car,what diff should i choose for power....not drifting?
Nice motivational video, Big brain time for those not wanting to get out from under the car a thousand times, wheels off stick a screwdriver in the rear discs (vented type) this will enable you to remove the half shaft bolts without using the handbrake.
Great job! I'm not taking my diff out and rebuilding it again, but I am gonna replace my diff bolt and put in a 14mm. I think my 12mm snapped.
great video. just bought an e36 and the rear diff bushings need replacement, I found a 3.91 LSD on marketplace too, so I'm thinking of throwing in while I'm at it.
Awesome! Glad we could be of help! Enjoy the E36!
Great video helped me out a lot better than many of these bigger Channels keep up the good work

You deserve at least 100k subscribers🙏
Thank you for this video. Now I can start my Diff-Project.
my 323i diff took a shit recently and im having to replace it. hoping i can put a 3.91 ratio in mine with no issue.

Great video! Have a e36 myself in Nz and want a welded diff so know I know what to do. Thanks.
+Hunter Hills awesome! No worries! Glad it helped!
i cannot get my cv joint out of the diff on the passenger side, 98 m3... any suggestions? LHD car....

Sometimes the flange can stick even with the bolts removed. I suggest using a big pry bar to pry them apart. Hope that helps, thanks for watching!
Have you advice for me? Which diff best for drag race?
great video. looking at getting a 3.91. feel a bit better doing it myself . keep up the vids! do videos about intake,throttle body, throttle cable,etc.
+Anthony Castro thanks man! Ohh that will spin up the wheels real quick 😉
Yeah we will see, trying to save money to put toward the e30 project atm :)

dont we need to replace the rubber bushes where those main two side bolts are going in?
What do I do if I stripped the axel bolts
Excellent tutorial. Thank you vm!
so pretty much just remove the old & slap on the new? no timing or any gear work?
Does an e36 m3 diff fit non m3 e36 without modifying anything tho?
Output flanges are different size. Swap out non M flanges or upgrade to M3 axles
Awesome video, hella cool points for adding torque specs any normal person would’ve have done it.
Thanks man! Yeah there if people want them 😊
Those Car Dudes I mean wouldn’t have. Haha

how'd you fix that I'm in the same boat right now
Really good video, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Seeing your car in the rear trailer video, I think I like the gun metal rims best.
How would you remove the half shafts from the diff if the entire rear end is out of the car? i.e. can't put in in gear or use handbrake.
I picked up an open diff to replace my welded diff and it came with the axles (half shafts) and im trying to take them off but it just spins
What are those blue struts called at the back of the car ?
How much time did you need to change the diff?
Great work btw
Took me 2-3 hours with smoke breaks and a buddy to help
What is your car color name or do you know with color number do you have thanks great video 👍
Hello beautiful how are mate I’m about to do my 92 320i diff and I need to know how long it take to replace it the on I have in my car I just bought is wielded and I have to replace it to pass inspection.

ended up stripping one of the torx bolts on exhaust side.. recommend taking exhaust off.. I don't know where to begin to get this bolt off now lol fml
+Andrew Kromer they can be a real pain aye! Might have to sacrifice a cheap socket and bash it on there with a rubber hammer
All the best man!
Those Car Dudes cheers mate, went ahead and ordered a couple new ones for the reinstall.. it was one of the last few so I was almost done lol
Lived with a locked diff for a week, got rid off it, spent around$2500 for a quaife lsd nd never looked back
Definitely a good investment
the good ole one new shoe one old shoe trick
+Adrian Gonzalez haha you know it!
This is an awesome video
Thanks Dain!
Great video
Well done!

Or BMW graphite grey with a silver flake that's what I had done on my E90
Thanks...
wanna sell the locky ?
Already gone, sorry mate!
I thought it would be a lot harder
Same!!
Keep the wheels brutha
does anybody knows how to get rid of shaking after changing diff to another from another e36. driveshaft was ok and new diff was ok too.
Hmmm, hate to point out the basics, but have you checked everything is tight?
Those Car Dudes checked it twice and still. i even replaced that driveshaft bearing and that rubber thing between driveshaft and gearbox
you need new tires player
Hard out! haha
UNDDDDEEERRR POOUUUUNNNDDD
Hahaha Matthew? :P
Yep
Lmao...4 years ago...ya right
U skipped to many important/ hard parts
All e36 are lsd
Nope, all M3's are but only 'winter package' non M3 E36's are from my understanding. Correct me if I am wrong :)
Dude you could do less talking about other things and more about the goal your trying to achieve
What wheels are these?
