Open your oil filler cap before you open your oil drain pan bolt. Open the oil filler cap and rest it right where it sits. Helps drain oil.
Music sounds like a car alarm horn going non stop.
Great video as always. Thank you Steven. Keep the great work.
Thank you!
Great job , waiting for part 2
Thank you! Part 2 should be coming within the next couple days.
Very informative! Thanks for the vid.
You’re welcome!
The loose sensor is the AUC sensor - for automatic air recirc mode. If it's broken it gives code A6CF
Thanks for the video and the tips!
You’re welcome
Hell yeah!
Such a great video! Hopefully you make a part 2 because I bought my E92 a few months back and I want to make sure I do everything correctly
Thanks for watching! I’m glad this was helpful for you. I’ve got several more maintenance vids coming on the E90.
You can also get a preliminary oil level quantity check after an oil change, without starting the engine. Go to ACC and do the same oil level toggle display. If for some reason someone here didn’t add enough oil and starts the engine it’ll tell you if it needs more.
Fantastic video
Thank you!
Very cool. I'm not so terrified of my e90 now.
beautiful video
Thank you!
great video
Thank you!
Lots of good quality parts went into that E90. Nice work. Video quality and views are great too!
Thank you very much!
Great vid Steven as always keep them coming...

Happy thanksgiving to you and all your family.. All the way from Ireland...
kui5422 Thank you!! I hope your family has enjoyed the Thanksgiving holiday as well (do you celebrate Thanksgiving in Ireland?)!
@@CrossroadsRebuild nope lol.. But thanks for the acknowledgement though much appreciated not many you tubers reply... Can't. Wait for the next video....
Good job
Thanks!
Fantastic production quality. Great details. Thank you for taking the time to link the tools, parts and credit the music!
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching!
Lets go!
Yeah buddy!!
Hey thanks for the video! Im thinking of doing the same sorta thing (full preventative maintenance overhaul) before I go off to college. Im looking forward to the suspension upgrade because Im wondering if I could do it myself haha.
I’m glad this helped you! BMW’s have a reputation for being hard to work on, but they’re not really that bad. I have replacement shocks to put in all the way around, so I’ll be doing a video on that soon. Also will have vids on Vanos and brakes.
Thanks for watching!!
You could possibly clear the leaves out of the windscreen base and catchers.
Thanks for making the video, i'm a lot more confidant doing the service myself now. BMW £600.00
Awesome! You’re welcome.
Sensor on left is air quality sensor for Air Con.
Hi, My bmw E83 crankcase vent valve went bad with pressure in engine & blow out my valve cover gasket. Do you think it could have damage any other seals
Tbh, I’m not sure. You replace the pcv and valve cover gasket and have to see. Hopefully not. I’m not thinking of what else it would’ve blown out. The other thing I would check is your plugs and coils. With a blown valve cover gasket it is common to get oil down in the coils and plugs. Good luck!
Fyi, you turn that oil filter by hand then with a wrench. Never leave it snug tight.

Good video, but such a shaky camera. You can stabilize the video after taking it, there are apps to do that.
This car have gasoline filter?
Would this be the same for a 325ci 2 door?
I expect it would be pretty similar, if not exactly the same.
Nice work but you should have opened the oil filler to have a better air flow of the old oil so it won't take long to drain
Got ahead of myself. But you are correct.
these filter caps aren’t easy to get on hand tight with the gasket, be sure its seated all the way where it should be.
I stopped tightening after I couldn’t any more with my hand and had oil leak out from all around the cap
Thanks. I’ll keep an eye on it. 👍
You got weak hands. Lol.
First.
Lol! Thanks!! I can always count on you.
How much did you pay for everything?
I didn’t put prices because that can vary greatly depending on where you buy your supplies, where you live, and will also likely fluctuate with time. I highly recommend you check out fcpeuro.com and plug in your vehicle details to find out what it will cost. They have a lifetime warranty on everything, so if you’ll have the car for a while, they are the best place to buy from!
The most stupid thing the bmw engineers did was removing the physical engine coolant temperature gauge from the front cluster and use a hidden digital reading which many ordinary car owners are having tough times figuring it out. This is dangerous because the engine can overheat while driving on a highway without monitoring and seeing it. Oil check is better but coolant temperature check need you to press codes which is tedious while driving on high speed road that need your full on steering wheel attention. Old cluster gauges and meters where thought-out useful and straight forward. Today's engineers don't solve problems but create lot of problems. Some decided to remove a spare wheel on German cars and replace it with run-a flat tire which is basically hard to repair and defeat common sense since you cannot change it if it get flat in the night or middle of nowhere. Today's engineers and car designers don't know how t differentiate between an F1 race car and household vehicles. Don't fix what's not broken. Too much unnecessary innovation to look different and stand out in the auto industry is complicating things and taking away the trust from German engineering.
Ask German cars makers what wrong with oil dipstick and cluster gauges? Why too plastic parts in a car that costs too much to buy and maintain?
Would have been nice to see the filter being changed
You don't show what you are doing. No good video
I’m sorry you didn’t find the video helpful
@@CrossroadsRebuild good video helped me just got mine
How long does it takes to do everything 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
good video.
Thank you!
