This is without a doubt, the best auto repair video of any kind I have seen on CZcams. I suscribed to the channel as a result. I have a 2010 X3 and I have a feeling I'm going to find more concise and easy to see and understand videos ahead. Thanks
Excuse me while I vent. Our 2007 BMW X3 turned into a money pit after the 4 yr warranty. In the first year we had the interior blower fan replaced and we still have interior leaks from air conditioner condensation. Oil leaks galore! I think we've had all gaskets replaced. Starter replaced, injector replaced,......money pit. Thanks for the oil change tips.
@@JaceWoodwardjpg epic! how many years have you had it? I just got a mint 2007 2 yrs ago, ocd with it, arguably my favorite vehicle ever, love my sl550 too, but thats no winter animal.
no...not wise. Save money somewhere else. skip the starbucks...or something but dont use oil not recommended. These engines are finicky for very specific and real reasons. Use the right stuff or you will seriously shorten the life of the engine.
Wrong Pennzoil Oil, No BMW LL-01 Certification On The Specific Oil You Purchased. Good Luck You Need ACEA A3/B4 Castrol Edge 0w30 Euro ACEA A3/B4 Castrol Edge 5w30 ACEA A3/B4 Castrol Edge 0W40
Thanks for the reminder on the steps in the process. Nm conversion= 18.4 ft. lbs on both the oil drain plug and the oil filter housing.
Glad to help
Thanks for the conversion! I’d have guessed without that knowledge.

Pour your big jugs horizontally and you wont have the surge pouring.. Coolant as well works the same
We have exactly the same car even color.
Hi After the oil change I begun getting a low oil pressure warning, and occasional transmission failure warning, whats causing this?

You don't prime the filter why
Great video. But typo DYI -> DIY?
Hi, Can I put a regular wool blanket on my bmw battery in the winter??
My man has I'm some $$$$ or allot of debt. I'd guess some $ and lots debt. But nice garage. No need to always change the filter baby o rings.
Chuck certainly has no debt. Smart guy
Whats the year of the x3 and is it the msport
Can I just use napa 5w30 oil? I am a high school student who is looking to save money but still wants to take care of their vehicle.

Saved me 100 thanks 👍
Anytime
Question : can use Royal purple oil ?
We haven't used that one in the past
Is it the same with 2005 x3?
The process should be similar
Valvoline oil is better

I think you are wrong
@@dominiquehunt5737 castrol is the supplier
lol "easy to do", then he pulls out the lift. might as well go to a garage
it can be done without the lift too.
Jack and jack stands... Just like any car...
Calling this a DIY when you recommending that one has a car lift to do so is laughable,.......
You can do it without a car lift also
