I have a 2011 550i with an oil leak. I haven't really looked around on the engine to see where it is coming from but I can smell it and I had to add oil just recently. The leaking oil is not reaching the ground. I just purchased the car and I bought a 3 year warranty. But I wanted to get your opinion as to what and where it could be leaking from? Thanks for any advice. Great video by the way.
How do you bleed out the air out of the coolant system on this car man I did the same work on my 11 Bmw 550i but now is showing me a warning light saying Engine compartment hot if you can help ?thanks
Hey Euro...did this repair on wife’s 2011 X6 50i...after repair when I rev to high RPM it is triggering limp mode...but no code...if I stop vehicle and turn off and restart it goes away but comes back if rev over 4000 rpm....thinking leak on air induction??? Is there a spray can use to try to locate leak on induction or any suggestions??
Marc, Question I have a 2008 bmw 650i with only heated seats. Can I grab the seats from a 2012 with air/heat and put them in my car and make them work?
Thank you for this video - I have the exact same problem on my 2011 550i. Do you recommend me changing the oil supply line that go to the block from the turbo?
I need to replace that hose, it's leaking coolant slowly from the top/left (passenger side). When the engine gets hot, there's some steam coming out. I replace the ones on top that route over the alternator about 2 years ago. Did you ever replace that 3way hose?
Great video! Going to tackle this job in the next few days. Thanks!
You got skills bro!! I’d tone down the subtle disrespect for your coworkers, shop bitch etc, the team makes the dream!!
Any tips on how to remove the back screws from the manifold..thanks
Are the replacement parts of the same low-quality as the original BMW parts?
apparently yes but you can buy heatshield sleeves to put over those lines so the same thing doesnt happen again.

I took my turbos out now I’m confused which one goes where lol. Are the oil return lines made for one specific side? Or universal?
How many hours did this take? Did you have to replace the turbo gaskets?
Hey mate the leak looks very similar mine leaked like a sink from the passenger side is that common ?
Out of curiosity how long did it take you to compliant this job?
How did you managed to get out the bolt that holding the turbo to the exhaust manifold?? I stuck at this part lol 😂
Where did you order all of your parts from?. And exactly what kind of torque wrench did you use?.
Performed this job but car is still leaking any advice?
I have this leak. What else must I replace besides the oil return cover and the manifold gaskets?
How much is this job?
I have a 2012 x5 e70 n63 how much does it cost to do the job
How can you tell if these engines need this work? Do you have to take everything off first to check?
There's A-scope that you can use coming through the front of the motor behind the alternator
Do you have the FULL VIDEO

no
The seat ventilation is only good for chilli farts. You can also lift 1 butt chick up for 10 seconds and get the same effect
How can i contact you?
HAHAHA! “Hey, Shut up!”
Someone should come up with a relocation kit.......
Yes what's does it cost
How much this cost to get done
Nice job
Thank you for this video - I have the exact same problem on my 2011 550i. Do you recommend me changing the oil supply line that go to the block from the turbo?
id say yes. but changing the metal gasket could work also.

No comment on how much it costs??
I don't deal with the customers but its pricey
At 3:56 what is that hose called?
