Those are probably the best videos for people having fun working on cars
Much appreciated
Keep up the good work 👌👏 I have watched dozens of DIY videos, yours are some of the very best when it comes to explanation, torque specs, camera angle ... just super easy to follow and understand - really good job, thanks!
Thats extremely kind of you to say thanks. Thank you. Hope you have a great weekend💪
*kind of you to say that

I don't know if I'm more surprised by how well you work or by how you always seem to have the right tool and parts for the job! This is one of my dream cars, watching you makes me feel prepared for owning an e46. Hope I can get one soon!
Thank you. Get any 6cylinder one and you will have a fine car❤️

The most common fix that I do is get rid of the yellow dot on the left side of gauge cluster. Usually cost me about 80euros 😂
I tried🤣
Good job bro! keep going!
I love this guy,i swear:))
Cool video Tim. 😊
Thanks you iain:)
Great video Brother
Elsker dine videoer
Tak for det landsmand:)
Really valuable content, one small note would be if you'd shared parts number in your vids description it would be 11/10 channel :)
Thank you. I will try and do that then. Thanks for the tip😀
done
20:00 I'm dreading going under there to inspect mine after my shifter developed some play lol the carrier clip on my e46 is different, it's only one bushing and it's further back on the transmission. I replaced all the bushing when the trans was out doing the clutch job 7 years ago, I'm surprised OEM bushing failed so soon, noticed the slop more after replacing the engine mounts when shifter started vibrating in gear.
Yeah the stock bushings dont last that long sadly. A good thing is that when changed, they offer s noticeably better shifting feel and less slop. What car do you have?
@@OEMplusRESTO yup I remember how good it was with the new bushings, will def try the powerflex this time and it's 330i 5 speed.
@justfasial01 i really like them so i say go for it:) ive been told the dssr’s are really good too. But i felt they wwre a bit too expensive imo. Maybe you could consider those.
Love that car. Im considering getting an automatic one for a dd. Had an e39 with that combo before. Superb engine. Im a bit biased though😅 hope you sort it out either way💪
@@OEMplusRESTO Yup those were my thoughts aswell on the DSSR. It really is a nice car, 160k miles on mine and I'm planning on driving it until the m54 dies lol
@justfasial01 then you’ll be driving it forever maybe. i bought a touring with that engine once. It had almost 500k km’s as i recall it. Engine felt and drove fine👌i love this engine. Peak non-m stright six bmw imo
“Actually not that heavy”
“That shits heavy”
There is no in between 🤣🤣
🤣
hey Tim, what do you think about going from 2.93 to 3.15 or 3.38 on a 5 speed 330Ci? What do you think the best option is?
Hi Jacekp. Imo a 3.38 would be too much for a 5speed that sees highway driving.
I think the difference between 2.93 and 3.15 is too small to make a meaningful impact for the money spent.
Having swapped from a 3.38 to a 2.93 (in a 6speed car) i can say the 2.93 makes for a much more relaxing drive. But also, it seems, alot slower
@@OEMplusRESTO hmm, how about 3.23 instead? that's the only middle-ground diff ratio between 3.15 and 3.38 :/
@@jacekp8366 hmm.. i just ran all the ratios through a rear gear calculator.. if you can live with 3000rpm +/-100rpm depending on wheel size at 110kmh then 3.38 is fine and would definitely wake your car up
@@jacekp8366 hi.. i just redid the math. My calculations were wrong. Youll be at about 3100-3200prm at 110kmh with that 3.38.. imo thats too much if you do alot of highway driving
But if you can wait 2-3 weeks ill have a video up on it with more details and possibly a 3.15 i test as well
I can simulate the 5speed version also by just leaving it in 5th gear so it will cover both 5 and 6 speeds
@@OEMplusRESTO thanks for the input. I am also considering a 3.23 from a 325i automatic. Also a big case so it should go in p&p. I let my friend drive my car recently and he too noticed that the 2nd gear is especially too long for dynamic driving.
dssr got rid of my left to right shifter slop. but it isnt necessary.
Id love to try that dssr style to compare but imo the setup i used already does really well also. Great suggestion
Where is brand fuel filter?
Hi. Its OE. So original BMW. But made by Kayser i think they were called
@@OEMplusRESTO did the new fuel filter make the car better?…
@AdamAdam-nc2ep sadly no. But its nuce knowing that all is well with fueling now:)
@@OEMplusRESTOi m next weak , injection cleaning ,i ll be curios will it get better😎
@AdamAdam-nc2ep please let me know if it works or not then i can do the same:)
