CRANK
Just spun a rod bearing last week, pulled the engine and am in the process of replacing the crankshaft, main bearings and con rod bearings, so your video came at the perfect time. Thank you for the detailed videos, many of your videos have helped me better understand the biturbo setup of the BMW diesel engines and work on mine (E90 2.0d converted to BiTurbo like the 123d model).
Waiting for the balance shafts video!
Thanks! The balance shaft video will be delayed, because I have forgot to film something really important when reinstalling them. Will be doing it probably after 2 months. At least that is when we have planned a repair like this on other car....
What was the bearing conditions?
Hello brother.. your video on n47 is just perfect
This Engine is very well maintained
Hi.
there are few who explain correctly How to mount the chain distribution on the n47 bmw.
The most common mistake when the fuel pump is set to the mark on the engine block. You understand what I mean.
You are the best.
Good evening, is there a problem if the fuel pump is not in the right position?
Good informative post highly appreciated ❤
excellent video, i watched for fun
In what state was the original distribution? How many km was going to work until will break?
Should the marks on the fuel pump line up 45degrees after TDC on all N47c16 engines?
My car is at around 260k km (320d lci 2008) and runs perfectly, is there any way to check the chain without taking out the engine? How much would this whole procedure cost if you do this?
My e90 320d has done 281,000 km and runs perfectly.... The car is a 2010 model which I have owned for 6 years... I think I will continue to run it because the cost of replacing the chain may not be worth it in the long term... If you keep regular oil changes your chain should be ok
@@pauljohnson3686 thank you!
Remove the plastic rock cover to check the chain, and you can clean the air intake manifold too..
As far as I understand, BMW dealers can perform a test without removing the engine to check for stretching in the chain. They did this to assess which units were valid during a recall on the early models. There were grades of severity in slackness due to stretching and only the most severe got a free change
It is worth asking them I suppose?
For older cars with high mileage it is a difficult decision whether to spend the money it will cost to remove the engine, swap the chain and do all the work shown here... most independent local garages won't touch these kinds of jobs these days... too much easy money to be made doing ball joints, brake disks and pads and track rod ends... You need to find an independenty BMW specialist but their prices these days can be as eye-watering as a main dealer...
Mine has 170,000 miles on it (2014 F31 Msport x-drive 320D) it runs fine now and isn't noisy but i'm concerned the chain is going to give out on me in the next year or two... All I can do is shorten the service intervals and add some molyslip each time
Swapping the chain is around £900-£1300 GBP for the 2WD up to around £1500GBP for the X-drive versions... Mainly labour cost as the kit is less than £300GBP
Prices approximate based on quotes I have just had APRIL 2024 from two independent BMW specialists
I changed mine recently, was making horrible noises when idle, got a brilliant Febi kit off ebay
Any idea about the service history/intervals of this engine? It's in really good condition inside! No staining at all
Good evening, is there a problem if the fuel pump is not in the right position?
Hello! Thank you for sharing this amazing video!
I have a question: Have you ever used DAYCO or SWAG aftermarket kit for this purpose? And if yes what is your opinion about it?
Thank you and keep up with such a good work.
Greetings from Serbia!
Good worked job and what is the price for this rebuild on n47?
Hi.Can u write down why these engines fuel pump have to be aligned ( 45 degree after TDC)
Hello, how to put the key on for the crankshaft correctly, there are two holes, you put it in the first one and I saw a video where they put it in the second one.
Muy buen trabajo
Cual fue el precio de todo ese trabajo, incluyendo repuestos y mano de obra?
Muchas gracias por su respuesta
Do you have any job openings for technicians.. I would love to join you. I am certified a BMW and Mercedes-Benz technician with having more than 6+ years of experience in automobile industry. Please replay if there's anything.
Nice job man , any B47 chain repleced?? Are beter than n47??
Isn't the con rod bold torque dependent on what type of con rod bolts you have? As far as I know, there are two types of con rod bolts
Thanks !
I just changed out Hpfp/injectors and all fuel lines on my bmw 118d after hpfp failure and now car has misfire on cylinder 2, I used the proper locking set up for hpfp and crank but scratching my head with this misfire. All injectors checked and pressure from Hpfp good, My next step is to remove glow plugs and test compression but would it be worth taking rocker cover off and checking timing 1st incase it has jumped?
Можеш ли да препоръчаш сервиз в София, който да свърши тази работа толкова съвестно, колкото ти?
If you want to start faster you just need to unscrew the pipe from the first injector next to flywheel
I don't want to start it faster actually. I want to crank it, so to be sure that all the oil galleries are full with oil and we have enough oil pressure before the start.
P.S. The injector to the flywheel is number 4
Could painting a timing mark for the fuel pump be an alternative to using that special tool?
Congratulations, you are competent and a good person, I have to do the distribution, but I don't know which is the best kit, what do you recommend me to choose, original BMW OEM or compatible? Or other brands? For example Fai ?
OEM is the only choice if you want reliability
Okay, but how and where to find it?
@@rebusnemo6437 You can order parts from the dealership
It's a massacre at the dealership, thank you anyway, very kind.
@@rebusnemo6437🤣, truest comment I've read on this video... Dealership=empty your pockets.. Problem is middle men inflating the price to line their pockets.. 👍
Got my engine together just yesterday..did the fuel system bleed from ISTA just once but still it does not start..should i run the fuel system bleed more than once? And not having the exhaust sensors plugged in should not be an issue to start the car right? Because mine too the exhaust is still off but the manifold with the turbo is on..
What engine stand to use ? i really like it .
nice video, thanks
what material these chain guides are made of? looks like plastic...
After my chain replacement, I have oil leak and strange noise when braking
Thanks for great video. Whith time will be video about balance shaft ?
Hopefully in the next week, I have already recorded it, just need to edit it
Perfect timing. I have engine on holder and balancing shafts make me nervous.
Have you anytime problem with starting motor after install to car ? My engine after install not starting, starter spins, sound of starting is normal, just injectors doesnot work, on ECU is no mistace codes. I forgot venting the fuel systembefor first start. after 3 lost starts I used diagnostic and make venting fuel procedure. but still not run. Do you think I broke high preasure fuel pump ?
@@jandornak2166 Remove the solenoid on the side of the HPFP and check for metal
@@crank3646 I checked it and it's clean. on ECU ZGM Is error code 801C20 - Central memory is full - no error of ecu. Voltage of battery is 12,5V battery. Fuses in tailgate and dash board is ok, under hood one fuse is ok too. I ordered new power distribution box on baterry and will see. Timming must be ok if I use start spray to intake manifold Engin run.

Hi my car is a 1series 123 N47 2010 with 187 k miles uk miles 300 KM has noise on starting that gose away so engine out Timing and guide and tensioner's all in good condition so thats not the noise, I will fit all new , clutch is worn out but was still working ok ( Friction plate or center plate has spring in it ) the dual mass flywheel seems to be ok not to much movement. I have seen flywheel alot worse than this flywheel. It is difernt part number to all other N47 and very hight price, I will fit a new.
Do you know of anythink that can make a noise on start up ( has new front pully and belt )
Thank you for doing the video I did not understand my timing tool's kit I thought thay were not correct so to see the correct way is very good. I will like and follow your chanel thank you
The noisy coud come from rood bearings...😢
Bravo
Hi CRANK
Im planning to change my timing on 2012 bmw 320d f31(automatic)...I am not still sure i get it one thing... When you install and align the high pressure pump sprocket(gear) using that special tool rotating for 45 or 11 degrees(whatever) , do i keep the other tool fixed on camshaft or not. could you clarify me on this please and thank you very much for your support
No camshafts should be timed after that
@@crank3646 thank you for clarifing it . By the way will the kit your using be good for my bmw 320d f31?
@@igortanyarascovschi1225 Yes
@@crank3646 could you please send a link from ebay or amazon of the kit
Thank you
What is your scanner?
Wher is youre shop so i cant take may car to you
i got an issue bmw says turn crank to 11 degrees after tdc when fitting oil pump and crank to hpfp chains. the 11 degrees tool doesnt fit onto my crank its 1mm too big. now i seen u not use 11 degrees after tdc. please explain why thanks
There is no specific way for installing the oil pump. You can install it as you want, the crank doesn't need to be on TDC or 11 after TDC, this is only for HPFP. And yes I show this in the video detailed as much, just watch the whole video with little bit better focus what is shown.
Good evening, is there a problem if the fuel pump is not in the right position?
@@tiagocardoso7753 I did the job, it’s always best to follow the manufacturer guidance but seems like @crank3646 had his way as he is a lot more experienced. But I removed chains when crank was at 45 atdc with hpfp marks lined up then installed everything with crank 11atdc for hpfp timing. But many people don’t do it and don’t know how it even makes a difference
kindly, what timing chain kit did you use? possible to provide a link?
Everything is OEM, it is not a kit
@@crank3646 okay,
Thank you for the reply 👍

Каква е цената за тая работа ?
Къде се намира сервизът?
Има ли разлика в цената части+труд в срванение с N57?
Като изключим повечето брой лагери на Н57, не
А цената каква е?
къде се намирате вие?
А есть видео на руском?
