"This car makes me nervous" Lol, welcome to the BMW life
Lol welcome!
I was about to say the same thing hahaha
Truuuuuu
Me picking up my first amg car to daily instead of all my project cars 😂
Living that Christmas Tree life, lighting life up one CEL at a time. 😎
For that rack situation if you have working good rack of the parts car. You need to reset, the adaptations for that rack, and then re-calibrate the steering wheel angle sensor, and the initiate the rack from the diagnostics. It will make you center the wheels, then the steering wheel, after that will make you wiggle it to around plus and minus 10 degrees for a few seconds, then delete all errors from the DME, and DSC module. There is a quick way to reset the DSC connected steering wheels angle sensor, by firing the car up going full left then full right, turn off car, then wait 30 second with ignition and accessories off ( as this is F series M3 they all have comfort access for firing up its better to get the key out and far away from the car so the modules can all get to "sleep"). Then fire up and sensor should be reset.
Also the rack has its own module that needs to be coded to the car, even if it start to work will show the Tamper dot on the cluster, that means there is difference in the mileage somewhere in the car systems, not sure if the rack module as ISN number, if it does that makes it way more complicated to code.
As Elias Bergstorm said in the comments.This all can be done with almost no money spend, if you don't want to use BMW licensed software, people do it all the time. As the legit tools cost a lot and its limited to BMWs and Mini's. Just keep in mind that for F series you will need not a D-can K line cable, but E-net to OBD ( you can home made such easy there is no real interface in it, just a RJ45 plug to male ODB II ). You can get ISTA D with DB for 2020 from the internet and for coding you will need E-sys software instead of classic tools that worked with E series.
If you have other issues with the car I have been banging my head with BMW's for 10 years now, you can always PM me I will gladly share some knowledge if I have such on the problem.
Great knowledge. 👍👍
bro you kinda giving me PTSD, my BMW is actually working rn lmao
That's for changing the steering rack? It's already the biggest PITA I had working on my e36. I think I would've kilt myself if I had to program it afterwards
BMW tech?
Geeze, this guy BMW's!
Pumped for you man! I’ve been here sense you were at like 400 subs and has been so awesome to see how much you have grown I always look forward to watching your videos keep killing it brotha🤙🏽 and maybe throw in a tool time video again I miss those hahaha
Finding a shop you trust and being able to afford to have them fix it is a great feeling / milestone! Love it man!
^dont fall for the fake
Boy this video was extremely relatable for me, I bought an e46 m3 9 months ago and I felt the exact same way when I got it. I was so scared and paranoid with "oh shit is this normal" and i was worried about it breaking and not being able to fix it as well. But I've done the same thing and i let go of the reins and have taken my car to a shop and its been great, I've only had to do it twice and it was for small stuff and an alignment. Its been dead reliable, and the few things that have needed addressing like the brakes and tie rods and small maintenance stuff like that have been shockingly cheap and surprisingly easy. I'm not sure about this gen M3 but my whole brake job was under $300 for all 4 corners, my tie rod was $8 for the inner and outer on one side and it was $35 for the other. My M3 never stops surprising me with how amazing it is, it surpasses expectations in every single way imaginable. Even down to folding down the back seats and sleeping in the trunk, I occasionally drift my M3, and ill use it as a tent at the track. Its the best car I've ever owned, I love it to death.
Hey TRay get the MHD obd2 adapter and you can use an Ethernet cord and esys to do coding on things like this or coding out edc or anything like that. There’s a ton of info on the forums for coding these cars
Best part of any day is watching your videos. Keep up the amazing work!!
Man watching you go from just a new channel to this bad ass shop and collection is so awesome!!! Love to see all the growth and the cars get nicer and nicer and nicer!
You need to buy ISTA D + ISTA P + cable, in europe it cost around 100 dollers, im sure you have a US dealer, because it will not be the last time you need a scan tool. Trust me i own a couple of BMW :D
I'm having similar issues with my rebuilt ram, never thought about checking the acceleration sensors but that's now top on my list.
Taylor’s videos make me feel guilt for the lack of progress I make sometimes because this guys goes ham and still edits a banger
Can’t wait to hear your long term thoughts on the platform. Daily driven mine for about a year and a half and just puts the biggest smile on my face everyday.
When you go to tune it, check out Bavarian RennSport in Jacksonville, Fl. A few hours from you but they’re definitely top notch and do amazing work. We work with them a lot (I do window tint, vinyl, paint protection, ceramic coatings, etc) and work with their Audi R8, Lamborghinis, X5M, and their various other M cars. Highly recommend.
Still have my old E30 323I which is about to get a fresh engine combo ...
Great to see you finally getting the rewards for all the hard work Taylor and have learned somethings over that time so thank you for that...
I had to double take the thumbnail. Almost thought it was TJ Hunt for a second 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Nice to see the variety in content.
I cannot wait for the content from this car. The potential for this platform to be a comfortable daily making nice power is crazy.
So glad to see it running and pulling.
Looks fantastc
For floor mats get the BMW all-weather mats I had them in my f30 and they fit so well you'll have no issues with sand dirt or water in the carpet when you go to clean them off
This! The BMW all weather mats are fantastic.
I detail cars and can say that oem BMW all-weather mats fit nicer and clean easier than almost any other floor mats
And dude is right about those floor mats my bro had them in his f30 and he works Security on back roads and the outside of his car always looks like it's mud bogging in the floor where your feet go is always dirty too but with those mats none of it will actually get on the real carpet they're like big bowls in your floor but they Contour up the sides of the seal Wells and The Rocker it's literally like a Bowl in the floor you could get two inches of water in your floor and it wouldn't make it to the actual carpet but enough Jibber Jabber on to the next comment lol
Man I bought my f80 2 months ago and I love it lol I’m glad you got this!
I love how you are teasing the body panels for the vette by just having the m3 in the garage with them.
Glad you got it sorted quick! 🤙
Soooo Close to 600k subscribers. Taylor, let's goooo!
Let's goo boiz. I wanna see the short bed truck awd. Swapped
I changed the rack in my car, 10 bucks cable and esys did the trick. You can code and diagnose the whole car with esys and ista
Thanks for always motivating me!
Smiles per miles. Thanks guys for the video.
Never would have guessed you'd be picking up a BMW but you're one of the few DIY guys I'd have the confidence in being able to get it figured out. I'm intrigued. Should be interesting.
Love it Taylor! From the UK
The S55 engine likes to slip the hub off the crank, and spin timing. This happens on downshifts on DCT cars that are tuned, read up on it.
On the plus side of working on it you get very familiar with the car and the enjoyment is that much better.
Excited for this.
But I'm Glad you just about finished the Corvette.
Almost 600k congrats man I've been a long time sub since the 350z days you have come a long way
Ah taylor i’m so excited to see you enjoy this car. Honestly it’s on my top 3 Bmw lists.
Excited for you man! You’ll love this car. Don’t forget to upgrade that crankhub before pushing the car too hard.
There’s always a value to be had in having your car with someone you trust, even as an automotive professional. It can be a lot easier to have your car SCHEDULED for someone to have designated time to dive into it who’s literal motivation is their career.
Also I totally recommend wheel stud conversion wheel studs are never fun, so much easier to thread studs into them and buy some open ended lug nuts.
Congrats, Taylor. Really cool car and definitely fits the bill for a "just get in an cruise car"
Good to see your injoing your spoiled of your channel !!!😉😊👍
The white on red looks killer. Good car to enjoy. Have fun with it
Taylor, congrats on the new M3 and getting it sorted. Curious, what made you choose M3 over M4? I'm excited to see the first round of mods for it!
i dont see many BMWs in my feed and its probably because i dont look for it often. BMW is probably one of my favorites. The new tech in cars is superb, and gives me the same rush a rumbling v8 does at idle. Enjoy! hope it sticks around a while!
Awesome ride
this is a good series ... you should do this more often switching up the drifting bros vibe and send this channel to new heights.
I'm sure a lot of people have told you this but as a three time s55 owner please dont forget to do the crankhub, once you've done that the rest of the car is bulletproof! Enjoy it :)
That exhaust sings! - And the name of the song is "Please Help Me!" Need to have a chat with Matt Mormon. 😂
Great vid love seeing the f80m3👍
Can't wait to see you blast this round the dragon!
Check out TuxMats for the inside. They protect like weathertech but dont make the inside look like a truck. I've had them in my GLI for a few years and they've held up great.
I used to work for Benz and what i did for the whole taking wheel bolts out thing is to take a bolt (I think it was a subframe bolt) cut the head off, grind it so it’s smooth. Then take your top wheel bolt out, thread in the subframe bolt and then you have a wheel hanger . I used to keep one on each lift arm actually
Taylor could you possibly test fit the semi wheels on the new daully I’m honestly just curious what it would look like
T-Ray, sounds like we might see you at FL2K ! Roll racing that machine would be a treat. Good Luck. OBTW I'm digging those wheels, good match to a white car.
This is the kind of car I will likely someday buy. I could watch a whole in depth series on working on this beast.
10/10 would reccomended
Check out drift hq’s yt channel for a drift build or rktunes on yt as well for some drag racing/ more technical stuff on them!
Yeah the pics of your 944 bro look like something straight out of ff1 keep up the awesome content can't wait to see what you do with the M3 platform that's one of my dream cars hopefully I'll have one day I want the E46 M3 though and the M4 GTS that's my two biggest dream cars
I've recently been taking some of my vehicles to shops for things such as AC repairs, and even had a shop knock out an engine and trans swap for one of my previously owned drift cars. What I've learned is that yes, money can be saved when you do work yourself, but as someone that values my time just as much as my money, it can be worth paying to get stuff done. Especially if friends are the ones getting paid to do it for you.
You're crazy Taylor! I wouldn't buy a BMW in good condition nevermind lightly wrecked. Good luck!
Such a tease with the vette in the background. Can't wait to see it drifting!
The amount of shit that I learn when I watch your videos is amazing, still pretty new to all the mechanics and engine stuff but leaning decently fast 🎉
Can't imagine how this thing sound with a single mid pipe exhaust, you should put one i think. But man, seeing you drive this car gives me a smile. Keep up the good content Sir!
Do you recommend the GkTech low-profile ramps? Looking at buying four for storage. Been using cardboard under tires on a car that is summer only.
fun sporty daily drivers are all nice. You're talking about the dragon, you might want to make sure a shop near there has tires.
Great content thanks for sharing
There are good EOBD scanners with a plug that connects to your phone. Then you can use the app. There are systems that allows you to do 90% of calibrations and read codes even delete them. Read data. I have heard good things about the Carly system but I have not used it my self. They say you can code systems when needed. Hope this helps you. 🙏
I love the f80. Daily goals man
The F80 looks so clean 😍
Double Taylor day!!! just watched KSR dyno vid too : )
Love the vette can’t wait to see you drifting with all that hp great car brother. I’m jealous lol
Always a good day when Taylor ray posts a video lol
Man Jose is a dam good friend to you. Curious if y’all ever work on any of his rides? Keep the vids coming
Ooooo! Cup of tea for me please! So happy for you!
just finished the dyno session from kevs POV. damn that thing is going to be a animal
Congrats on 600k Taylor been here since 30k subs
This is my cup of tea. If you can build a racecar you can work on this.
my experience aligning some euro cars is theyre super picky. they want the front wheels to be perfectly even and like one degree tolerance on the steering angle sensor.
Finally F80 content 🙌🏽🤩
Sick! I nearly bought an F80 but ended up in a 2020 M340i so I’d have AWD and some warranty. It’s a daily/kid hauler. But still wish I had found a good F80. Maybe one day.
So clean with the red guts 🔥
Unsure whether it works for f30/f80 but I used a k+dcan cable and got bmw ista+ from some shady website (but it worked) for my e90. Ista+ is the software bmw technicians use, you can do coding and all kinds of things. The cable and software cost me a total of 50$. SUPER usefull if you own a BMW.
I wondered how you would feel about a newer car man. I just bought my own new car and its been weird lol. All of the electronics and nannies are trippy. Also going from a full 2000s sports car hydrolic steering where you feel everything on the road, to a full "sports car" electric rack took a while to get used to. Also, I noticed that I am so confident in the car that I didn't even open the hood after I got it, I just got curious what it looked like and popped it open just to look.
But, now the bug has got on my shoulder to "improve it" Looking at wheels and tires, downpipe for the turbo, front lip and spoiler.....
From what car to what car
@@MiGujack3 A 2004 Pontiac GTO with heads, cam, and intake with full aftermarket suspension (I still have it my PFP) to 2022 Cadillac CT4 V.
It was super trippy when I went from my fox body to a 2017 Mustang GT
You going to do the crank hub?
For as much as you’ll probably have wheels on and off that thing you should pick up a stud pilot pin set. Makes taking wheels off and putting them on much nicer and never have to worry about the wheels falling. I work in a German shop and use them all the time!
And then right after I comment I push play and you say how things have come “full circle” which is the name of the shop I work at 😂
Can’t wait to see this this rip
You should get some acoustic panels up in the new shop or something, because the echo makes it hard to understand you when I'm using my TV speakers lol! Love the content, I've learned an absolute ton about cars from you! Keep on keepn on
i think your speakers be going lmaoo sounds minty on my tv and its like 7 years old lmao
As much as the sound detaining would help the echo, it's not all that bad. Weather it's my tv, pc, or my phone, I have no issues understanding him. If anything I feel he's been louder because of the new shop
I don't remember seeing photos of you 951. It's so rad! Ever think about getting another one and swapping it?
It was a 944
9:00 I'm an auto shop owner and I have a lanuch scan tool. Look into them they have different versions diagun being cheapest at 700 and the tablet version at about 1200 they do a lot of programming and coding and you will use them on any car with obd pirt
the white on red with the carbon roof really make this car look super good I absolutely love the combo. but it's sick to see a whole different kind of car on the channel and I really hope you keep perfecting it and I know esthetics aren't really your biggest worry but I hope you get the outside looking mint as can be 👌
Definitely the g35/37 exhaust sound of the bmw world. Working on them every day still haven’t heard a great sounding exhaust
Can't wait to work on my e46 M3 and get it back to its former glory 👏🏽
all this and he still became a BEEEMER BOY we lost a GOOD ONE haha love your come up my man just giving ya a hard time... don't forget to NOT use that BLINKER
Awesome content
Those cars are GREAT!!!!
Best cars in the world! Nice work!
Dude in regards to the pedestrian censor problems on the be .. I work in crash repair in the UK and the pedestrian censor is a flat strip containing 2 wires that runs across the front bumper and should be located in the crash foam on most older models. if that's still the original if it's damaged in anyway it will through up the pedestrian censor code check the plug too 🤙
It looks was easier to work on then the older 335s
Did you make sure to take out those plugs next to the oil filter and fill those with oil? Those are the lines to the oil cooler. I guess they would’ve filled and primed after running the car, but good to do next time the oil cooler is out
that background noise during the wrenching is great, sounds like a special person throwing tools around and violently attemting to get a socket on a bolt lol.
For the people criticizing the newer BMW:
Yes, it isn't a nineties car and yes, it has a lot of electronics, but have you driven any performance cars of the last decade?
They're blisteringly fast while being reliable and comfy. DCT transmissions, direct injections and modern engine management are game changers compared to our beloved classic cars.
If I had the choice, I'd also own both just like Taylor does.
lol you have the knowledge and wherewithal to fix anything thing that could go wrong on that call
Tyler’s bmw is the new drift seat time car 😅 got to hit up Drift HQ
Welcome to the BMW life🎉
JUST finished watching the Kevin's vid on the dyno session; ;)
BMW's definitely use Boost by Gear. The boosted BMW's I've driven (Diesel/Gasoline) always hit hardest in 2 to 3rd.
Cool the M3 is fixed (midway through vid) sometimes you just gotta call it and pay for someone else to deal with the problem, so you can enjoy it and work on the other cars 👍🏽 ps get MHD for gauges, diagnostics plus mapping
