Hey, thanks. Your relaxed attitude makes it all seem a bit less dire. Definitely going to up my injector game soon. Might be a good combination with the valve cover gasket. Hope the new year treats you well
@50skid I don't know if you want us to request/suggest videos. I know you have done oil and filter. Could you do all other serviceable fluids, filters and stuff? Like diff, breakfluid, power steering. Bmw n54. Love your videos
This is a fantastic video! I will definitely be using this guide when I install my index 12s. Hopefully solve my intermittent long crank and cold start misfires.
Been following you for years with the E46 330i. I also have the E90 330i. Even the 12th revision are still crap and are constantly failing as you will find out
Excellent work, thanks for sharing this. I still have a slight rough idle for a few minutes on cold start on my E90 N43. I was considering changing out injectors, but may run some injector cleaner in the tank first. I replaced spark plugs a year ago (120k miles) and just replaced all 4 ignition coils (as one failed causing heavy misfire) this week at 130k miles. Would you recommend an injector cleaner - LiquiMoly or BG44k? Thanks again.
yeah fuel system should be bled through ISTA. this is exactly the reason why so many n57 diesel bosch cp4.2 pumps are failing. people priming the system by cranking causing dry running.
@@ademc8872 Yup, this was also the major reason why so many HPFPs failed on older E90s - until BMW released a software update which lets the fuel pump run when unlocking the car to build up fuel pressure in front of the HPFP to prevent dry running.
How come there are so many relatively new cars on the junkyard in america? In germany totaled 335i‘s are getting sold for 6000 € upwards, it’s upsetting…
Crazy. I dunno, I guess they become too expensive for the insurance companies to fix and people want to take the money and buy something new instead. The car then gets a salvaged title and nobody wants to own it at that point.
Excellent video, thanks for posting. Quick question: do you need to grease the body of the new injector before installing in the head? Ceramic grease is supposed to be good as it prevents the SS injector body from reacting with the aluminium head. Your injectors were easy to free - I bet mine won't be!
My early March 2007 build 335i has original index 1 injectors. I’m at 191,000 miles now! Original turbos too. How much did you pay for the junk yard set?
@@50sKid USD 60 for 6 index 12's. OMG. I wish we had scrap yards like that in the UK! Retail price from a BMW dealer in UK is about £250 *each* for index 11 - and that's if you can get them!
As others have said, awesome work on the fat loss! If your car hasn't had the recalls done, can you do a DIY on those, please? Blower motor plug and battery positive cable in the fuse box under the dash.
Hi. I have an E93 with N53B30A engine (so non-turbo). Did you change (upgrade) your injectors from index 11 to index 12? Or did it come with index 12 as standard? Reason I ask is that I've read that there is doubt about whether index 12 injectors should be used with the N53 engine. I kind of feel that they should work since the energy and flow rate values are entered into INPA so it knows the individual injector performance. Cheers from UK.
Also you don't need to pull the fuse for the fuel pump off just simply disconnect the battery and open up the gas tank filler cap,that will depressurize the fuel in the system
Hello, I too have a bad #6 injector...Why it has to be the one that is most difficult to get to I have no idea...I too also have all index 10 injectors. Are you planning to sell the 5 that were still working? If you are, please let me know. I am on a serious budget, as I just need to get this car running so I can sell it. Of course I will recommend that the new owner replaces all with index 12, but I really don't want to spend over $1800 for a full set, when I won't get that total value back out of it in the sale.
I think how loud injectors are depends on mileage... I have 12s in my 335xi and 9s in my Z4, and Z4 is definitely louder. Got 44k miles on the Z4 and 165k on the 335xi.
Sup bro glad to see your still putting out good informative videos. I have a question for you. I've got a 2004 325i 222k miles the trans is jerking. Would you say just junk it or is it worth replacing the transmission,lmk thanks.
I've replaced a couple of transmissions on these, it's a piece of cake.. you can find these transmissions for less than $300us now, or even half that on pick-n-pull sale days.
One more thing,no need to mess with the ground cable and twist it around,just simply remove the ignition coil and you'll have all the space you'll need to work comfortably one last final thing that's kinda important and critical....you HAVE TO CAP OFF THE OPEN PORTS ON THE FUEL RAIL while servicing the fuel system, you dont want ANY! debris to fall or lay in those open fuel rail ports
50sKid I did the same a few years back. Less mass equals better performance up hills for sure! I noticed a huge difference on the bike. Also, a quality pair of biking shorts helps too 😖
Great video! Long time watcher from the early e46 days. Question to anyone reading this, is it possible/safe to ultrasonic wash the tips by just submerging them in? I don’t want to disassemble them at all. Has anyone tried this with success by chance?
If people are using INPA and especially 1st time it will do a number on your battery so be fast and efficient. I was wondering if you can use inpa for module coding?
Could they be loud because they're clean? When I've cleaned and resealed old, mechanical injectors, they're always loud until they've been run for a while.
How can you tell which injectors are which ? I have a spare engine that came with everything on it and ready to swap out. Just do I can start ordering these tools so my new engine will start.
Hey I’ve been watching your videos and like another subscriber asked for fluid change videos. I have been wondering if you used Top Tec 1800 ATF in a ZF transmission. I have 2003 330 / to 2006 330 and 2016 X3 xdrive . Two with 5 speeds and one with 8 speed. And if you can mix it with the ole ZF lifeguard fluid
Hi. I'm looking for parts. For my e46 bmw. At transmission. I'm in South Africa, Durban and there are no kits available. Please can you assist me with this. It's a 2005 325I with the 5 hp 19 box.
I just ordered six used ones that were remanufactured from China but the picture he sent me , the coding numbers on each of them are all the same !! is that OK?

putting index 12s in my N54 cleared up a lot of gremlins, well worth it
Wish I saw this video before doing my injectors. I did not unplug the battery and the pump primed straight in to my mouth lol
Lol aww man
50s kid is back!
Very helpful guide of installing fuel injectors, thank you very much for sharing.

@@50sKid Thank you man! Love your videos. Great diy tutorials
Mr Jason thank you for this video and being very lucky to find injectors number 12 in junk (hunk)yard !
So I hate to be the bearer of bad news. But the index 12 injectors leak too. I have replaced 4 already over the years.
Yes! I can confirm that.
couldn’t you just repair the injectors like he did? i have a N53 325i and will have to service them soon.
Love that office tshirt. Nice video as always
Nice logo refresh, 50sKid!
The Foxwell NT5XX scanner has functionality for coding injectors. Way easier to use than INPA.
Holy crap, I just noticed you've lost weight. Looking good bro. Excellent video
Lol thanks
Thanks for your video iam getting ready to put my index 12 in see what happened nuff respect

Yes!!! I’m having that at the moment, did you fix it?
@@ACETG-dn6ee yup! It solved most of my engine hiccups. At a steep price tho... oh well all worth
Clean the injector bore with a vacumcleaner and attach a small hose on it.
I've been following your videos on TH-cam. Great stuff.
Great video, Jason. Thanks for sharing. Glad I have my E46!
Index 1 were just as good still have them in my 2006 335i
Been following you for years with the E46 330i. I also have the E90 330i. Even the 12th revision are still crap and are constantly failing as you will find out

I wouldn't run the engine with the fuel pump fuse disconnected, because the HPFP will run dry, which isn't really something you would want...

I enjoy the videos, but they never got it right. I had to replace my index 12 injectors after few years.
I guess after 12 they just gave up
I've found out an old coil pack end perfectly holds the bolt to pop it on the clamp
When I found out that my copart N63 had all of index 12 injectors I was sooooo happy :D Still these BMW injectors are awfully loud.
Very good explanation.
on cold start I get a puff of black smoke and a little hiccups sometimes, is that leaky injectors?
That was pretty damn good, thanks

@@micdev42 Hi, it was upgraded by the previous owner because some of the injectors were failing early. It was done at a bmw workshop.

No it won’t, the high pressure fuel system doesn’t bleed down the pressure like that.

What is the computer required for running the INPA software?
Wich models have that injectors from factory? Regards!
Can u go ahead and install again after testing or do you have to replace seals
Wondering where to find the INPA software and if it costs to download?
Here in Finland index 12 injectors cost 380€ (~450USD) each. OUCH
Wow!
In Germany I bought refurbished index 12s from the dealer for 90€ each a year ago... now they are 128€ ^^

How about msd80 > msd81 upgrade video?
I’ll put it on the list. It’ll be complex I’m sure.

Are injectors interchangeable between n54 and n55 as long as the coding process is done correct?
They are completely different injectors
Does the K+ cable suit a 2002 e46?
Just so you know they’re 3600$ for 6 now… not 1200$
What code will throw for this injectors faulty
😮
You will start to get random cold start misfires mainly, they start to leak
Will it work on n53 272hp? e60
Hello mate
Would it be possible to buy me 4 injectors index 12 and ship them to the UK? I’ll pay you immediately before you ship them. Regards
Would silicone help seating the injector seals?
No. No fluids of any kind should be used
Can I just ask about index, does it mean that index 12 is the upgraded version of index 12?
Did you use loctite by any chance?
On the hold down bolts? I did not. Shouldn’t be needed
And now they are over $400 each! Way too expensive....
do this work on N53 330 to ?
