This is why I’m sticking to Honda and Acura. I had three German vehicles in my life: two BMWs and one Audi and let me tell you… all of them failed at or before 100k miles. The BMW’s got oil leaks and the Audi-the transmission failed at 100k. I got a 2012 Honda civic at 160k miles and no issues. Im buying a 2021 Acura TLX, so I wont be in this shit after one year of owning a car like a bimmer. To hell with German vehicles.
Hello following your video of changing the aluminum eye box I would have liked to have a link to a BMW series 1 120i lci from 2018 I would like to make the change for an aluminum one also thank you for your response good luck to you and thank you
Is it possible to change the plastic Upper coolant hose that goes into the block with 3 bolts without removing the intake and just taking the DME out? I really want to do this as a precaution before it leaks but don’t want to remove the intake since I’ve never done it and seems a bit complicated. Thanks and great video!
Hi. Can you help us with the part numbers? I already changed my filter housing with an aluminium one. All perfect but my coolant still going down from another place.
@@robsweekendgarage it is my source. But after de filter housing change I have not any drop on the floor and not a clue about the possible coolant leakage
I still don't understand why, after paying so much money, do BMW and Mercedes-Benz insist on using cheap plastics on their cars. Even more boggling is people think these are great cars.
Great job 👏👏👏

Love the video❤ and seems a bit complicated. I wonder how much it cost if I take it to independent shop.

Im outside of Atlanta GA. I generally don’t work on other people’s cars. Im just a hobbyist and do this for fun.

The intake is very easy to take off. You might be able to get to that piece without but IMHO not worth it. Super easy to pull the intake off.
@@robsweekendgarage that’s great to hear! Do you recommend changing all the intake gaskets or can I reuse old one? Appreciate your help!
Can you do a follow up on the oil filter housing? Is to good? How is it holding up?
The owner has not had any problems since the repairs. Been driving the car all over.
What brand aluminum ofhg did you get?
How much is a job like this😢

Would need to know what is leaking. Realoem.com is a great resource if you put your vin in you’ll get the entire parts list for your car.

I don’t remember off hand. The owner ordered it and provided it.
@@robsweekendgarage Finally I went for water pump change after the new filter housing. And It seems that the whole problem was solved.
