Great video! For anyone attempting this DIY, you don't have to remove the alternator if you have flex joints for your sockets. It's a little more difficult but it'll save you some cash on the new bolts. Regardless, excellent, clear and concise video.
Thank you for watching and the tip 👍
Lots of unnecessary work that's a straightforward job remove and replace
u need to drain the oil to replace the housing gasket u dont want oil flowing into bay
The most extra job I’ve ever seen for this, all that isn’t necessary
No need to remove bolts for alternator if you have a joint socket you can reach that screw behind the intake manifold. It's easy and saves times.
Great video. One of the most comprehensive. Thx
BMW dealer just quoted me at $1500 for this repair. According to the BMW manual, all this extra work needs to be done. My BMW club buddies did it in 45 min without all the extra work.
Why you removed engine starter. You can change oil filter housing gasket without removing it
It helps to rub oil on the gaskets before putting them in
I'm surprised that no one else has mentioned this. I have always thought that you would need to rub a small amount of oil on both sides of the seal before you place it in the housing, like when you put on a new oil filter cap seal. Doesn't need much, just a thin coat. Does a dry seal provide better contact than an oiled one?
@@scottmorton21 Oil every rubber gasket. Thin coat like you said.
If the Germans would put on good rubber gaskets, rubber o rings or anything rubber in all their engines all of us wouldn’t have engine problems and the engines would be as reliable as TOYOTAS. I own a 2010 E90 and the main problem(s) is anything rubber. German engineering is not what it use to be. They know what they are doing by putting inferior parts on “ALL”
BMW’s and there should be some legal recourse.
I’m shocked at all the attorneys that own BMW’s why no one has come forward!
Yes, German rubber sucks. Weather it's gaskets or window trim etc. it will fall apart in due time.
Great video that oil filter location😯
2 swivel ( flex) joint sockets and you can skip taking the top plenum off, the Serpentine belt , the air box and the alternator
Good video
Nice video, all the other videos they are doing lots of extra stuff
Thanks I flow you and I did my job.
Why is that radiator hose to the left of the housing
Is this much the same on a 2007 335xi or is it a different process?
WOW.... how much stuff did you do/remove, seen a few vids on this, this is probably how BMW do it, but no need to do this, ALTHOUGH, best advice was to not reuse the bolts
Thank you
Any idea on how to get one of those off that has been striped
Not sure if you reused or replaced the filter housing bolts. I noticed the gasket kit includes new bolts.
Hayk Samvelyan If they’re metal bolts you can reuse them if they’re the aluminum bolts replace.
What's the risk if we reinstall the same alternator bolts?
Ik this comment is 2 years old but the bolts are aluminum and torque to yield so if you do it will break the heads of the bolts off the next time you go to remove them.
A lot easier than the n54
😂😂😂 crazy, everything much easy.
Next time he probably going to remove the Whole engine 🤣🤣
This must be what the dealership does and why they charge you so much.
I need to replace the gasket on a chevy cruze is there an easy way to change it with out removing the exhaust manifold out
dany ordonez exhaust gasket?
Hector Rocha oil filter housing gasket right next to the exhaust manifold
dany ordonez u may have to that location is awful
dany ordonez unfortunately I do not see a lot of Chevys mostly European cars so I can't say for certain.
