Good job Niamh, looks a little chilly out there. That's a pretty huge airbox they put on there. Back off! Thomas is mine! I have the same Tattoo...in a more private area...
Yeah there was still some snow on the ground lol I wanted my car back on the road though! Everyone loves Thomas haha I think you've a fight on your hands ;)
wow, you made that look easy. and you did that in a driveway. I'm not much for punctuation or grammar, but if you made another car repair video I would watch it.
Thank you for this video you made it look pretty easy , it was the only video i found for this engine ,btw why did you change your alternator instead of fixing it ?
You're welcome! It's a very easy job. I replaced it because it was quicker to get a reman alternator than waiting on the part to fix it. I ordered the part in case I get stuck again 😉 In my case it was just the bushes were worn so if I had the time to wait it would have been cheaper but the car was due it's road safety test so I didn't have that luxury at the time 👍
Hi, nice video! What is your voltage on idle with the new alternator? I have a 1999 BMW E46 M43 (Located in South Africa). The car still runs great. There aren't a lot of "how to" videos for the BMW E46 M43 on TH-cam - I am glad that i came across your TH-cam channel Can you make a video on the following : Replacing the sump gasket Replacing the manifold gasket Replacing the timing chain and tensioner Checking for vacuum leaks Thanks!
Thank you! Yes there are not many how tos on this engine. The sump, I wouldn't take that on myself. The subframe has to be removed for access and I don't think I'd be strong enough 😂 The others I will record if they ever need to be done. 👍

Outstanding job Niamh! The funny thing is I don't even have a BMW but I like to watch you work
Thank you :) I love watching other people work too and learning ways to do things.

Not so young but thank you sir :)
