It wont ruin anything short term. But bmw says to not lube them. My mistake! I thought they were to be lubed as there was lube in the rebuild kit:(
best way to open 2024 with your video, half alive and hungover on someones sofa
You and me both😅 im slowly waking up
The level of detail with this build is impressive!
I wish I had a friend like yourself and a shop this nice to work on my projects.
Im here to make friends, so as always youre welcome. Your support is much appreciated💪
Its so nice to see that you got this one back to new condition while being on a budget :) Really motivates to actually get my thing on a lift and start restoring all of the salt damage done here in Germany!
Also Happy new Year! I hope you had a great day with family and friends.
Thank you Total! I wish you and your family a great new year as well.
I can not thank you enough for your content. I have a 2003 330ci And the things you do just makes my life so much easier. A Detroit fan.
Im happy to have likeminded people to share this hobby with😎 hope your 330ci treata you well. It is an old car so they do need a little bit of extra love lol
Thank you, love watching your videos
Im happy you find them interesting. Motivation to keep going:)
Another lovely episode. Learned a lot of handy stuff like bleeding the brakes and adjusting the e-brake. I want the ceramic pads for my 330 as well, hoping my wheels will get less dirty from brake dust. Where do you buy your parts? Maybe you can put some ceramic coating or even just a wax inside the wheel arches to keep everything looking nice for a longer time, or at least make it easy to clean
Thats not a bad idea but i think just hammerite paint is enough for my usage of car. But for others maybe it would be a good idea. When i wipe it down with acetone in the video (the old black hammerite)nothing rubbed off on the cloth. So it seems its pretty durable when acetone wont eat it!. Thank you for the kind words
You are doing a great job man, I like how you talk and explain everything! Keep up the good work!
This car really needs M-tech foot step, to be full+ factory M-tech version ("+" for M3 interior and M3 kick plates) :)
That would be nice yes😎
Not sure if it’s the same on e46 but the ate calipers on e9x are not supposed to have greased applied to the slider pins. Loving you content lately. I greased my rear callipers and after a year the pins gummed up.
Thanks for making me aware of it. I just looked it up an youre right. They shouldnt be greased. I will write this in the description and make a comment about it
I remember when I did the brakes on my E46, I got some negative feedback because I also greased the slider pins. Apparently, BMW tech data actually says to leave them dry. I have to admit, I did not remove the grease because I didn't want to bother. It's been a couple years, and the brakes still work fine. But your mileage may vary.
Nice video. I need new pads and fluid flush, your video makes me want to attempt the job myself
Thank you. Please do. I’ll upload part numbers and torque specs later today when i get the time
Hahah a lot of hp gains here
Did a good job as Always
Godt arbejde Tim!
Den står rigtigt rigtigt flot efterhånden!
Tak skal du have Oscar😎
Absolutely love watching your videos. So relaxing and informative at the same time. I did the rear brakes not long after I bought the car in April last year but have a warped disc so I’m going to do them again. Will be putting in new shocks as well. Love the level of detail you go into. Is there any hammerite that’s similar to oe colour or is there places that make it up. Happy new year 🎉🎉
Thank you so much. I had the local paint supplier mix the color for me. But its not super close to the oe color. Just kindda in the ballpark lol! What happened since your discs are warped?
@@OEMplusRESTOI bought pagid discs which tend to be a good brand but unfortunately one was warped out of the box and I also drive the car hard so the heat cycles didn’t help 😂 I’ll be upgrading them to stoptech discs and pads soon with braided lines
@bull7618 i think pagid is oe even!! How unlucky. I hope you have better luck with the next rotors😅 i like ate. Never had any trouble with them
@@OEMplusRESTO as far as I know ATE is the oe brand for all brake parts on the E46. They make fantastic products
And reasonably priced as well. Im really looking foreward to seeing how much/little brake dust will appear due to them being ceramic pads!
nice work as always :D It would be useful in the description to have a list of what you use to restore everything, and if you buy it online a link of the direct product
Hi. Thank you for reminding me! they have now been included, minus where i purchased it as yt can be a bit weird when it comes to links in the description. BTW Did you get to install those headers?
@@OEMplusRESTO many thanks. Yes, it was quite a complex undertaking. Unfortunately we had to file the dissipating fin of the gearbox by a few mm and we moved the position of the lambda. I can tell you that the sound is crazy and after making the ecu calibration, I go louder than a stock 328 of my friend
They do sound good and perform well once you get them to fit. Happy you got them to fit. I wish they were legal here lol
@@MichTuning
@@OEMplusRESTO It isn't legal in italy but i take my risk ahaha Do u have instagram so we can exchange opinions about our bmw?
Damn... I painted my brake calipers in black and lost 14 hp. I compensate with oiled brake pads. :)
Less rolling resistance 👌
So rad! Can you list where you purchased the caliper rebuild kits.
Thank you. I have added the part numbers to the description now:)
Have you got a link to the pressure bleader?
I can share a link to a danish page where i bought it but its designed as all the other cheap pressure bleeders. I think i paid around 80eur/dollars for it at Biltema (harbor freight / autozone in the us)
Hope that helps.

What paint colour did you use? Hammerite?
Motip brake caliper paint, and hammerite for the car
What color was hammerite paint?
Mixed at the local paint supplier. I dont have a paint code ready:( the one i got was too yellow so i added some black to it to darken it up so now paint code isnt true
Brake horse power.😂
