I would like to say thank you so so much. This by far is the best BMW Z4 video I have ever seen. U saved me a lot of money by replacing the starter myself. Now I see why they charge so much to replace it. This video was perfect step by step removal on the air intake manifold. I truly want to say thank you for taking the time to make this video.❤️
Thanks for posting the diy videos, i just bought a 528i with the 2.8l. It had a blown head gasket...your videos have been more that helpfull on how to do the job correctly and what tools will be needed.
Waiting in the head to come back from the machine shop, hope everything goes back together and no more issues.
Thanks again!
Thanks, I will be attempting my Z3 2001 M54B30 which looks almost identical as this. I am replacing the entire cooling system though. Your vid makes it look so much easier that all the others I have watched! Great camera work and explanations.
I am so happy to thank you for showing me how to remove the intake mainfold because I plan to install a new temperature coolant sensor so I can do that for the replacement. It is very good process in showing how to remove step by step. Thank you again.
Thank you so much brother!! My 323ci engine blew up do to those hidden hoses! it had the m54 and i have a donor 323i with the m52. I was struggling to assemble it, but thanks to you i have a clear idea now.
love your work . I have been learning a lot from you. Bunch of blessings to you sir
Thanks for the vid. Now I know what repair I will have the shop do rather than myself. "A man's got to know his limitations".
This is a tough job, i'm at it today and dropped by to catch on your video what i have yet to do, cut, pull, break off before the f*%cing thing comes off. Thx bro, awesome vid
Thanks it's better than a book
It's been 2 months since I pull that off I was looking for a refresher thank you
You know Nate you make good vids . simple as that.
Thanks man! I needed this to figure out a clip that I didn't want to break. Much appreciated
Thank you so much!! Oh my gerd I went through so many different videos trying to find a straight forward explanation on how to do this. You sir are the bezze nezze 👌👌👌👌💣💣💣💥💥💥💯💯💯
Thanks so much for the video u helped me out a lot
Good job bro I like your videos. On this one I did the job with the fuel injectors hooked up. I just disconnected the fuel lines It saves a lot of time.
Thanks mate, helps me much, well explained, keep going. ur welcome
Glad to know that its not a terribly hard job. Thanks for the video.
great video....keep up the bmw e39/e46 videos
It helps a lot thank you very much, I just want to suggest others to change the coolant temperature sensor right there on the right side, while you open that , it saves you time .
Thank you.
Thanks i couldn't believe i had to pund the starter out it was the original i have 104miles on the clock pretty low miles for 2003 it sat for year from guy i bought it from but engine runs strong thanks again
My freind im just going to a full day and lots of patients you have to take out entire manifold and air box mass airflow .The wires and plugs that you remove when you lift the manifold up mark them with a piece of tape and put a letter or numer on them .When your pluging them back in you will make things a lot less of pain in the ass.By doing that saves you time so you don't have to sit there thinking were you pulled that one off from and take the tape off as you go.Also check dry rot on vac hoses and replace if you need to.
Thanks for all the BMW help, really appreciated. Pop's
Good job explaining it. I appreciate it
great video helped a lot. thanks
Your the man .
Great Video.
I just found this same problem on my bmw 323i thanks for this 📹
This video deserves more likes!
Much help thanks man
Thank you. About to tackle the ccv and inlet hoses
Thanks for the vid. In the past I've always had a Haynes manual to help me figure out these things, but can't seem to find the right one where I am. I got a 335d, I need to work on as well, so I will check through your other vids.
Thanks brother I appreciate your time and consideration in this matter would be great for everyone ....
Amazing video. Thank you
Here i am back again to to catch the dangling vacuum line i could not find, a place for, and there it is at 19:20 the rubber elbow at the underside of the intake. your camera work is great. Saved my ass again, with thanks to you that job is in the books.
Subscribed because of this
Great video! Just one question. What did you wind up doing about that manifold equalizer bar hose that you cut? Is that a part that can be ordered? Is it safe to plug both ends? Or can standard hose make the bend without kinking?
Thank you Nathan
Hey thanks for the videos!
I got told by my mechanic that the pressure at intake was reading low. I ordered a new map sensor but cannot find where it goes. Am I completely wrong, or does the m54 have another way of reading the intake pressure? Thanks
very good job
Thank you thank you 🙏🤟
Thanks alot!
Thanks a lot!
Great video Nathan, I have 2006 BMW 325CI E46 (convertible), and so happened the coolant pipes under the intake manifold start to leak. I am a DIYer, and few months ago I replaced the entire cooling system hoses , radiator, WP , and thermostat, only to get this leak pops on me last week. From what I have seen in the video , the engine on my 325CI looks very similar to the one you worked on . Is there anything I should watch out for, or any difference to other issues in taking out the intake manifold?. I have ordered the two pipes from pelican auto parts and will get them tomorrow. I do appreciate your help, Thank you
To save money what other hose can be used from the value cover gasket to the dipstick?
This helped me, only thing I'd say is maybe a go pro so we can see what you're pointing at. Thanks!!
Thank you, I am sure I'm having this exact problem but now I feel like I can handle it, great video.
Have you tried a magnetic camera/phone mount stuck to the hood for filming? It would be nice to have seen the coolant pipe replacement. Again, I really appreciate the vidoe
A huge thank you! I am about to attempt this job on 2003 Z4 in order to replace the coolant pipes under the manifold as part of a complete coolant system refresh. I assume I need to depressurize the fuel system before removing the injectors? It seems yours were already depressurized.
Man nate your a life saver buddy i sent you a message bro upon this very issue. Now please tell me you got video of removing the dual vanos for head gasket job. Thank you i was just searching for info on that i got stumped there...
Now question the T40 torx bit is that same for my 2006 M54B30 E53 3.0i X5 for purposes of removing the Disa Valve as you illustrated in this intake removal video? Let me know thanks...nate
Vert good Video's will probably Join
what does the (Equalizer)distribution pice over the manifold. Mine hase broke one of the pins that goes into the manifold ithink to tap it off ..? any suggestions? Thanks
Thanks....!!!.....👍
Nathan, I replaced those 2 rigid coolant pipes + hoses + wp + rad and put everything back together. Now I have a coolant leak under the intake! I used factory bmw pipes! Is there a trick to sealing them? Holes were cleaned out, i am stuck and have to remove everything again
Hey Nathan I pulled my intake up n my gasket stayed on the head, there was 5 black square pieces tht stayed on top of the gasket but I know it's suppose to 6...What are they for ?
I have a 2000 Z3 with a 2.8l. It's kicking my ass trying to figure out why it went from running perfect, to misfiring and running horrible and not even drive able. I changed and checked:
Both Vanos
Intake and exhaust cam sensors
New plugs
New coils
New MAF
DISA is fine, holds vacuum
Fuel pressure is rock solid, even when running like shit.
Smoke checked and NO vacuum leaks.
my m54 manifold vacuum lines back there were all broken and i dont know what goes to were can u help
What was that first box thing you pulled off the intake and thank you. I don’t have any Torx bits. Lol so T40. Gotcha. Dang BMW have a lot of torx bits
What those hose that your knuckles are touching named @ 5:15 . Waldo what does the small hose line on the f connected connect too
Thank you for your video I have the problem for taking my e 39’s intake manifault,it helps me a lot.
I bought a couple intake manifolds for my e39 525i from a dismantling place and everything fits except the throttle body. The bolts are off by like an eighth of an inch. Would you please help me understand this issue. I keep getting told that it should fit
can you please help me?
i am currently about to re-install my intake manifold on my e46. M52TUB25 engine. Drive by cable. Everything is going ok except that i cannot find or remember the mounting point for the throttle cable just before it connects to the throttle.. Would you know where this is? I remember removing it but from what mounting point is totally eluding me!
Thanks
14:33 what type of screws are those for that manafold mount?
Why did you take off the disa valve? For my X3 I have to take off the manifold to remove the disa. Unless you know something I am missing... 2004 x3 3.0i.
Do I need to pull the cams to pull the head to change the head gasket
Thankyou
Nice
That vacuum line goes to the bottom of the oil catch valves..Under the intake...You can block the one on the air filter off...
Where does the left plug on the harness go I’m having trouble figuring it out
Nathan or someone else, will you please let me know how to disconnect the earth/ electrical connector that is actually attached to the bracket where the bolt from the manifold to the block is situated? Somehow it is clipped on and I can't figure out how to remove. This is the only thing stopping me from pulling the manifold out! Ty.
amazing. thank you. disassembling now 🫡
Those pipes commonly break inside those ports. Is there not an upgrade to those pipes to have metal fittings anywhere?
At 28:31 when you point at gasket, to the right of your finger laying on throttle body what is that line called
All of those pipes and hoses look the same. I’ve never done anything on a car before but I think mine needs doing. Do you think it’s worth me trying ?
Hey brother I got a braided hose that come up the right side on the engine it was behind the right side of the manifold .I got all my vacuum lines finally straight..but can't figure out where to connect that one hose ..can anyone help me out
Is it the same for 2004 325 CI ?
Was going to do it today. I got stuck with the last bolt holding manifold down to the block. It was so where near throttle body, I couldn't find it and gave uo
Can you take off the manifold without removing the throttle body?
My disavalve lower torx bolt is stripped out any ideas?
thx
Great vid just want to say had all that off today e46 325i and i want say nightmare just to change out starter quick question is there any thing else i should change while i have everything open
J Mas I usually delete the ccv and replace the dipstick o-ring ,and clean the Icv and throttle body
pressure test the piston return springs through the intake holes be sure crank is on TDC
For the back nut use a swivel adaptor.
I can’t figure out what this hose is under the intake manifold, looks like it was connected to a red plug that was attached underneath the manifold
Thank you, that flapper thing was stuck in our engine, I pulled it out and it fell apart, go figure 🤦♂️ Most cars literally take 1 min to remove intake hose, 2 hose clamps and done.
To put them back on Put aluminum foil in the socket then force the nut into the socket, it will stay in place without falling out.
hello, can i take a 323 manifold on my 325?
25:20 i have m52tu and have 2 rails does it matter which one goes where i mixed them up on accident ones has blue quick cnnct and the other is black (had them pressed against firewall in certian position came back $#!@!! ) well if anyone could please help!!
I gotta take my intake off to replace the Engine coolant Temperature Sensor. On a 2000 323ci.
After you had taken off the manifold. Didn't I see the sensor right there in the right center of the picture? On the engine?
You don't need to pull the intake to change the temp sending unit
Does anyone happen to know what size bolt goes on the air equalizer????
Hey. I am lost. IF you follow the line where my plugs and ignition coils back towards the cabin, I have a hole (bolt, hose, plug - I dont know) and air is escaping from the engine causing loss of compression. I cannot see it, because it is between the firewall on the passenger side and the engine itself. If anyone is following me - can you tell me what goes in that hole? It is right above the manifold - the manifold faces the wheel well but the hole is behind the engine ... I cannot find this answer anywhere
Nathan! I have found you shouldn't have to remove the wire clips on the injector electrical rail connectors. Just grab the rail and give it a firm pull up. It will zip off. This works for all such rails including V8s. It is a 5 second job! The Bentley manuals are in error if they say to loosen clips. Thanks for your willingness to share.
John Isett half of the time the m54's won't pull off right, I have noticed that lately, the m62tu always pulls off easily
Thanks, Nathan. I haven't worked as many engines as you, so perhaps I haven't encountered the problem ones. Perhaps a shot of WD-40 on the connectors might help it go more smoothly--I would suspect dirt to be an issue. I always clean my engines before disassembling so perhaps there is residual lubrication of the clip locks from the water. I start on one end and "unzip" the rail. Try some lube next time and see if that doesn't help--certainly easier than driving yourself crazy loosening the clips and watching one fly into a blackhole! :-P (By the way, you have a patience and persistence rarely seen today--and you explain so clearly and your steps are easily followed. Thanks!)
I can't see a leak on that tube, but I hear something making a hissing sound after the car has ran and off...that tube maybe???
? What it your replacing the head gasket but dont have the tool for the timing do you have any video ?
You need the timing tool
Appreciate the effort, Nathan, but for a newbie, this is not the easiest to follow. In my opinion of course.
Hi I've been having a problem with my 528i and that's almost there it's just I have this noise to it it starts but it doesn't want to stay up so I'm having issues with it I'm kind of at a standstill with it I just did the injectors everything

Can the manifold come off with out taking off the equalizer?
Yes it can be removed with the equalizer and the injectors connected. I just did mine I save time and it works just fine
I need help I have a 2000 328 ci and it has a coolant leak but it's not the hoses or the radiator I think it's gonna be the one in hose of the bottom of the intake manifold right??????????
Do i need to remove the intake manifold to do head gasket?
Yes
What is the hose you remove at 26:05 called?
Did you ever find out what that hose was?
Going to try to record this today as I need to replace the coolant temperature sensor. Watching you use the metal pry tools is making me cringe a bit, thanks for uploading though!
i did a smoke test and there was smoke coming from under the intake. i bypassed the ccv before this so I do not think it was this. what else could it be other than possibly the brake booster vacuum line or intake manifold gaskets (the leak was below the intake, im pretty sure)?
Lukas W if it’s like mine there is what looks like a purge hose connected under there too really hard to see
@@Alexjimb0 damn I just googled it. Theres the suction jet pump connection and the fuel tank breather valve connection hidden against the head basically. I think I just need to rip the manifold off.
Lukas W yeah I managed to get it off without the manifold off but I have small hands so I would imagine it would be easier
@@Alexjimb0 which one was the issue?
Lukas W the tiny one that goes to the purge valve
At 16:40 does anyone know what the name of blocking that pipe is or how to go about it? Mine snapped taking the manifold off so need a fix 🤦🏼♂️😂
Mine snapped too well the flapper part, I just hooked it up without it. Seems to run the same.
Do you have to drain the oil if you remove the dipstick tube?
Wondering that too.
@@masonichisenga3032 You do not have to drain the oil 👌
@@jcosta7967 thank you. Just about to pull it out.
