High milage BMW repair video's are the best, I really enjoyed this one! That break disc shattered my soul through😂 Your F80 is looking absolutely pristine :)
Hi Hunter your videos get better and better . I am a subscribe since the beginning and you made such a big progress to the channel keep going bro 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Great DIY for the belts & pulleys !! I'm thinking of doing this but I have a problem. I have Crank Bolt Capture plate installed on my crankshaft bolt so I can not rotate the motor through that bolt. Is there another place where you can rotate the motor ? I'm thinking maybe though the flywheel?
Thanks a lot buddy, hope you enjoyed it. As far as I’m aware, most capture plates still have a ‘bolt’ to rotate right? Looking at the one from MMR Performance for example (which I’ll be getting soon, along with their crankhub). Otherwise you should simply remove your capture plate by getting the car in the air, and doing it from below. Hope that helps!
@@TheHunterHofman I have the Vargas VTT Capture Plate it really doesn't have any provision to put any tool to rotate it. Taking the Crank bolt capture out is a BIG job and i don't even have the stock bolts to bolt the pulley to the car without the capture plate installed, so I would need to buy stock bolts just to turn the engine and then when done taking them out and reinstalling the crank bolt capture. I've read that there is an inspection plate for the flywheel on the car, maybe I can rotate the flywheel manually through there?
@@alexoehler1 I also have the VTT bolt capture along with the spline lock hub. After some research I see others have been able to cut the old belt, spine the water pump to allow you to put on the new belt then use the water pump pulley bolt to re-tension it. If it's possible this would be a lot easier then having to remove the bolt capture plate first
@@jaimehurtado356 That would be an amazing solution yes. But it needs to be confirmed that this is posible turning the waterpump pulley first. Also if that works it would also work to take the belt out without cuting it?
@@alexoehler1there's a few ppl on bimmerpost that have confirmed they were able to do this job by rotating the water pump bolt, I don't believe you have to cut the old belt to remove it I think once you remove the 4 bolt on the pulley you should be able to relieve the tension then remove the belt. I haven't don't it myself this is just what I have read hope it helps. I have also email Vargas for confirmation
Superb video. I did my belts and pulleys last month at only 90k km I had a belt chirp at idle. I did tensioner first but it wasn’t until did all pulleys and belts that chirp went away. €3100 was the quote from Bmw ! i paid €301 for oem parts and was so happy when I did myself. I didn’t know to release the tensioner three times. Also I tried doing it without removing oil lines but it was impossible.
Please can you specify the references for the OE replacement parts for the Pulley, Belts, Tensioner ? I think I found the INA references but the Continental belts I don't know what ones to use
Sure! Also if I may ask, if I were to buy an m4 with some high mileage on it, what range would you avoid (like close before 100k kms) or is there no rule like this? Also there are some nice models with 130-150k kms, but it seems like a lot to me so I do not know (also when reselling).
@@frederic_m it’s cliche but it totally depends on how the car was treated and maintained. My almost 200.000 km M3 was treated very gently over the years and has only done long highway kilometers on our high quality Dutch highways. I would also take age into account. Go for a new as possible and maintained one.

Thank you buddy, appreciate it. That’s a very steep quote, my goodness. It is indeed impossible without removing those oil lines haha, but besides that it’s quite easy.
I never intended to study Dutch but I learned a thing or two from this video 😆

Haha thank you as always buddy! Glad you liked it 🫶🏻
Hi Hunter your videos get better and better . I am a subscribe since the beginning and you made such a big progress to the channel keep going bro 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
That motivates me buddy, thanks a lot
I get very excited when you post a new video.
Thanks buddy, glad to see you commenting too 😎
Changed the belt on my m2 and dropped the bolt 😅 it was so fun trying to find it in the under tray
Haha yeah, I dropped the torx bit too in the video, had to remove the underbody to get it 💀 it’s how it goes sometimes haha
You are the best, it was great partying with you in Monaco, see you again soon 🎉
Likewise buddy 🫶🏻
Good maintenance to keep that M3 on the road for a long time! You had me on the brake disc 😅
This M3 is gonna be bulletproof 😌
HIGH MILEAGE BMW = money pit 🤣 great for content thou
The next owner is gonna be a lucky guy! Got loads more plans with the car 😎

I saw all your videos. it's really fun. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Thank you very much! Next video coming next week
Looks like a lot of work. Nice to not have to do any of it. Thanks for the lolz
Hunter content! You motivate me every time for working on the F87 myself 😊
Thanks buddy and you motivate me to keep on going 😎
What the F*ck is a kilometer mate? I'm going to use this video to change the belts on my M3 I'm at 110 American bald eagle miles
‘Murica! Go get ‘em buddy, good luck

I believe you can see the part numbers in the video, on the boxes. Let me otherwise add them later today in the description
Nice content man ! vraagje waar vind jij alle torque specs ?
He makker, dankjewel! Die vind ik op ISTA en/of AOS
Thanks ! Doe altijd alles zelf aan de bmw elke kennis is nuttig 💪🏽
10:06 excellent choice of music sir
Real recognize real 😎😉
missing the M2
Maybe it will be back on the channel soon, as a guest appearance, who knows… 🤐
Ridex?! Shame on you for that cheap shit ;)
Haha I mean, I seriously had bad experiences with Bosch wiper blades so I thought to give these a try. What’s your experience with Ridex?!
@@TheHunterHofman Not so good. I tried Ridex door lock actuators and they were broken after a couple of months.
I have discovered you thanks to autotopnl and I really enjoy your vidéos, funny and instructive 😎
Haha thanks buddy, great to have you around!
Sure!
