      I used this trick for reinstallation when I did my plugs a couple months back. It's great because unlike a socket and extension you can't accidentally crossthread the plug, if it's not aligned right it'll just slip in the tubing.

    I drove an E34 BMW V8 for years and did a lot of DiY work on it. The engine is extremely sensitive to vacuum leaks, and a total intake manifold gasket replacement job is pretty much a given at 150K. The PCV plate at the back of the manifold is usually done by then as well.

    Check the idle control valve (located right above the throttle body,) sometimes it gets gummed up and stuck open, and a little shot of brake cleaner in it should free it up, a quick test would be rotate the unit back and forth and side to side you should hear a little throttle door flapping away.

      Also installing it you should remove the rubber things and attach those first , slide IAC in rotated 90 degrees then rotate 90 and push it into the manifold.

    I never was a BMW guy, but gotta say - even this old interior looks WAY better finished and built than most of your American cars featured on the channel. And the sound that you hear when closing the doors... Sounds like quality too.

    You are a warlock with cars.
    I appreciate your channel, SMA, ETCG.
    I learn so much from you guys.
    I no longer work in the industry, but technique is everything.
    I watch the pros to be a better amateur.
    Thanks for what you do, school teaching is basic, the field is where you really learn.

    Happy Birthday Ray, or rather by now Happy Belated Birthday. Yes what fun working on BMW's I am sure aliens do work for BMW as some are just plain weird in their construction so good luck with your continued adventure into Alien Tech. And no your not crazy we heard the voice on your speaker as well.
    Keep Safe Keep Strong 🦘🦘🦘🦘❤❤❤❤

    I do cars has helped me visualize a lot of the failures we see every day in the shop. Really helps to have definitive causes of failures when selling a job.

    Hearing the old “doodledoo” phone ringtone really threw me off for a moment and gave me flashbacks to old workplace. At first I thought he must have installed it as a ringtone on his phone, but all became clear :) Funny to see how many of us have some lingering traumatic feelings about that sound.

    I did not know they made a V8 3.0 litre for these 530s.
    I had a 2003 530i with the i6. What a great car.
    Loved the way it drove. I still miss it.😢

    Happy late birthday! And on the throttle cable bracket, you did not forget to put it on, you left it off to show the throttle body tighten up to the intake manifold. Another great video by the way.
