- This is clear example not to trust manufactures oil change interval... Every 19K miles it must be a joke! Please if you care and love your vehicle do it 5-8K miles!

Man, you're one brave super technician! Good job, love the channel.
Love your approach to tackling this beast! Great job mate
Amazing to see so mutch dedication and know how..well deserved pay check that u ask for the job, man like this keep the whole world running.
Well done Ed. Unbelievable skill.
That is one big memory test. Top work mate!
What an amazing job and memory you have. I own one of these X5 M50d I know where I will becoming when I need a turbo fitting. Great work.😊
Have just completed a similar job on a X6 M50D. The oil pump failed starving the bearings and turbos of oil. Not sure about the X5, but on the X6 it is possible to remove the engine from the top. Its a massive job and your video helped immensely, thank you!
Nice job! You're a brave man taking this job on. I can't imagine working on the quad turbo version of this engine. I think BMW engineers lost their fcuking minds making these maintenance nightmares. I hope the owner changes the oil more often than he has been doing up to this point.
you actually need to be a superengineer to do a job like that :-D insane that you did this the first time and with such an ease. hats off
Superb video. Well done, Ed!
Just found you and subscribed instantly! You are a seriously awesome mechanic to take that on. Many here in Australia would not dream of it. I am very impressed in your abilities.
Cracking effort, subbed!
You are a verry good mechanic, hands down 👌🏼
Impressive piece of engineering. And same for the job also 👌🏻
Good skills buddy, seeing this Video i will keep my M54 as Long as posible 😁 keep it up
Great work Ed you were brave to take that on for sure. That car is too complex for its own good IMHO.....
Great job on that beast - thumbs up mate 👍
I get in a pickle changing the thermostat on the M57 .. All those bits and bobs to remember. I bet you was chuffed on that one! Soon you will have to learn all this Electric ⚡️ “Maintenance” 😂 Good job as alway’s Man 👍
Very informative video. I have f30 with n57 engine and when I bought it (55k miles) had service done at 17k 32k and 47k. Changed the oil on the next day and since then was changed every 8-10k. On 100k now with zero problems. The car goes on a long runs from time to time so oil could last even longer I suppose. I think it depends a lot of the way you drive it - if you have a heavy foot should change your oil sooner.
Nice job man, respect ! I have a M550D G31, hope i never gonna have the same problems..
Massive job well done👍
Great job men!
Hvl.
epic work
customer is going to love the car again.
Nice one mate, and indeed good engineering but do prefer the m57 over the n57 😎💪🏻
A pleasure to watch, Imagine the quad turbo one
Very nice job, can you tell me what tools do you use for remapping and adblue off,thanks
Brave Man to take on that well done.. Hate to think what a BMW Main Dealer would charge, probably more than the Cars worth?
Great job I have a x3 35d 2017 and I change my oil at 4/5 thousand miles.😊
I’m sure that’s what the owner will be doing from now on 😁
135k miles on my n57 400bhp drives like dream still original chains and turbo because i changing the oil every 5k miles makes a magnificent impact to reliability
Honestly even with Toyota the 10k intervals are just toooo long.
Well done ed, makes me want one, and yes, amazing engineering, but at 58k miles??? Clever engineering.. bmw must love you! See u at martins soon I hope 🤞 well done on a job well done👍👍
Change oil more frequently and no probs 😉
@@The777Garage so the cause of such early turbo failure is oil change intervals. Right? What would yo say about oil change in gearbox? Does it worth to wash mechatronics when changing oil in gearbox?
Absolutely outstanding well done you 👏👏👏👏👏🙏 thinking of an E70 X5
What software did you use to load your .BIN tunefile? I used something called TGFlash to load the Stg2 file to my M50D, but I'm always curious to learn about other options that exist..
You did a very good job here. That’s a big job and worth the £2000 labour. How much did the turbo refurb total cost?
Amazing video
Looooovvvve this content. Have a twin turbo diesel x5. M57n2 no problems with chains and a lot simpeler. Always curious whats in store owning x50d with problems.
Well done bro.
Recently replaced the dpf filter on the same engine…. What a hell of a job🤣
hello, it was a great video.. I have the same engine and I'm living sirun. can you help me? The boost system that runs the turbos is messed up. need help to redo it. performance is very bad no color on hoses 🥺
tnx for the video
I have seen the same thing in an f15 m50d at 70k km, both small turbos shot. Luckily realised that a few months before warranty ended. New engine and transfer case were changed under warranty.
Ohhh wow
hello mate, how did you find out that your turbo’s were shot? mine throws white smoke when i put the foot down and i think it lacks some power, am looking into the turbos now but afraid what if the turbos are fine? … scary thought
@@mexicanumex So luckily mine was found early but small amount of whiteish smoke was the initial sign, kind of also felt like no power low down in the rpm range. 6 months before the warranty ended I paid for an inspection to take a look at everything in detail (to repair before the warrany ends). They found a cracked EGR radiator but as it did not explain the smoke because the crack was external, they found the turbos. Funnily enough 0 codes or errors except feeling low on power in the low rpm range.
@@kaurvali nicely done, how much does an inspection like that cost? shame i had waranty on it up until december last year, now i renewed it but because of the mileage is cheaper and only covers engine,gearbox..
@@mexicanumex This was 2019, something along the lines of 200€ at an official BMW Service provider (used to be a dealer). Basically on paper it was a pre purchase inspection with a bit of extra on instructed diagnostics for the exhaust smoke. But in reality they basically check everything before the warranty ends as the service provider likes to make money on warranty work and it also makes the client happy to get it for free so a win-win situation. I’ve also done it a bit later on another G12 7 series xDrive and they found a bad transfer case which was fixed under warranty.
I bought a X5 40d with a receipt for £5K just spent doing timing chains but they did not fit a new oil pump! After 1 week oil pump seized and engine was scrap!!! Oh boy what a job getting it done under dealer's warranty. Took 4 months to get car back and I sold it straightaway as it ran badly with no real power.
One day, one day I’ll put this engine in my e90 3 series! And leave the 320d badge on 😂
😂 I had an E90 335d with a 316d badge on it. The twin pipes gave the game away
@@DodgeCity111 there’s a guy in turkey who put a 2jz in his e90 and badged it 316i 😂, think it’s 700hp+ as well 😅
You're cheater 🤣
@@LR95051 In the 80s Bmw F1 car had 1.5 four cylinder turbo engine with 1350hp....So today isn't strange if someone make 316i model(1.6 engine) with 300-600hp monster. You just need big turbo. It's posible.
@@LR95051 in UK one guy has a sleeper skoda octavia eco hahaha and 500+hp under the hood.His car looks like every skoda on the road,another guy in UK in his bmw F11 520d put engine from F10 M5
You really know your way around those BMWs, that looked like an insane amount of work. People that complain about the S85 V10 being problematic should look at one of these and shut up. BMW's oil change intervals are also the main reason why the N62 V8s have a bad reputation.
I had both turbos replaced on my bmw f10 msport 535d 2016 with 33000 miles on it and full BMW service history . My mechanic said probably caused by not letting turbo cool down before switching off . It cost£ 3500
Is the 40D small or large turbo replacement an engine out job?
knowing that one of the weak spots on N47/57 gen engines is the crankshaft bearings + conrods bearings, have you replaced those aswell? i have read that on 50d they wear out even faster than ono normal 30d n57.
Not much wonder when the 50d engine is producing nearly double the power and torque through the same bottom end as a 30d.
Was looking for 50d but this changed my mind looks a nightmare 👍
Could you put bigger turbos in while you have it apart.?
More power is always better..
I have a 3.5D E70, and I only have a twin scroll turbo (I think). I have 184000Km's and am not looking forward to replacing chains. The transmission has to come out soon as I am having 3rd gear issues intermittently, I do those myself anyway, so may elect to drop the front and do the chains at the same time. Good video, plenty of info.
Fellow e70 35d owner here. Our cars have a sequential/compound turbo setup, with a smaller turbo for low boost at low RPM, and a decently large second turbo that comes on around 2000~ RPM.
@@YuukiWatches OK, I thought the 40D has two turbos, and the 50D has 3. Maybe I am misinformed.
Your amazing
I recognise that e31 plate from the group
Hello Friend there are 2 Mass Air Flow Sensors where are they Located Please?
Pretty big project and yet you chose to put in an aftermarket chains kit. Why?
Damnn man I couldn't keep my eyes off the spoiler on the E31
😁
For the mileage pretty dirty inside, maybe thats why the turbos let the ghost out, consider different oil and/or more frequent oil changes.. also on the note connected to the oil issues and worries about comebacks, bad news man.. you didnt do conrod bearings. Terrible mistake! :D
I need to visit ur garage, where r u located
When i was watching for X5 i saw 2019 X5 Individual M50d they still put it and what will be quad turbo M60d😂
where can i find you brother? i need the same job in london
I’m surprised what company who done remap not adjusted sport display as the next power spot on display is 480hp same and NM getting increased.
Yeah was thinking about that as well
How many hours did that take .
Imagine you would have a 4 liter with one turbo... would wouldnt have to doo this every 100000km would the extra fuel consumption cost more than this?
Brave man to take that job on (even braver to buy the bloody thing though)
What vicious nasty bugger decided that putting the timing chain at the back of the engine was a good idea.
Where are u based?any chance you can do my 730d chain?
Why did the turbo go?
total costs for the entire operation?
Can Yu help me put in my motor for my 2011 bmw x5m 50i
What is a rough price for this job
Good job mate..Could it be the remap caused the early failure ?
Slimy / old oil caused early failure . All the internal parts are black while they have to be shinny if oil was changed regularly. Never follow bmw recommended oil change intervals as they are way too long . On turbo Diesel engine you have to do oil change every 5-6k miles as max .
I have been looking at a bmw m550d from 2015 what shud i be looking for when i go try it out and look at it 😊
Make sure oil been changed quicker then 15-19k
@@The777Garage okay thank you the one I have been looking at have all services and only have 103 k km
3 or 4 turbos?
Witch software do you use to do the tuning?
Autotuner
Would it not be worth while to do the big end bearing while the oil pump was off??
Maybe..but customer is on tight budget
@@The777Garage Okay understand mate..
This is the kind of thing that scares me away from spending serious money on anything performance oriented from BMW.
Not that bad if u look after it with common sense
EEkkkkk 58k wtf, our m50d is on 59k ill be keeping the extended warranty running for sure, i drop oil every 7k, its the same with the ZF gearbox BMW say lifetime oil in it yet ZF say 60k no later
How often do you recommend to change the oil on this engine?
On turbo diesel every 5-6k miles as weary max. Never 15-20k . That’s how you kill an engine .
At least once a year or every 8000 km.
Also no spirited driving (over 3k rpm) until the oil is up to temp, and make sure the turbos cool before shutting the engine off after spirited driving.
These practices alongside preventative maintenance ensure the internals are performing at optimal performance and efficiency levels.
@@Mark-bd5ci Exelent advice. 99% of people don't care about engines.....
Good job. Obviously the turbo failed because of the tuning to add more hp to the engine and/or the owner was a little bit too hard on the engine
So what do you think of these engines in general? Why did the turbos fail early in their life ?
If owner would change oil atleast once at 10k miles or less this video wouldn’t existed
Does that explain the turbo failing also ?
is the intercooler air to water? looks like it 🤔
Yes it is
The owner most likely was racing it all day long and didn't do much maintenance.
I dont have smoke but dont have power after 3krpm do you know why?
Check vacuum pipes
@@The777Garage its hard as most od them are behind turbos 😂
Definitely would be cheaper to change oil every 3.5k miles
Did you have to refill the transmission after removing the oil cooler?
No as very small amount dripped out
@@The777Garage Thank you sir!
anyone know the name of the wheels on the e30 behind at 06:31?

Hi. What is the cost of replacing main and connecting rod bearings in BMW F10 N57.
💪😎👍
Just image getting 500 or 600 a week to do that work in a main dealer!
🤢
I don't understand people that spend thousands on a car and then are cheap on oil change and do it as late as possible
It's necessary too do a really good jobb. Because if u don't the costumer will come back and you will have too do everything again for free
True
If you follow BMW's suggested servicing of 16-20,000 miles this is the result folks.
Better 8k tops..
2k labour sounds cheap for the amount of work
👍💌🇿🇦
So is that the accepted lifespan of the Turbos on these models ..60,000 miles and it’s engine out time ?? Ridiculous really!
Only if you change the oil after 15-20k miles as bmw recommends . That’s waaaay too long especially for a Diesel engine . Change the oil every 5k miles and turbos will be good till 150k+
@@piccadillycircus9416
Okay 👍 .. that’s pretty decent then to be fair. Couldn’t agree more on the frequent oil changes, it’s the cheapest maintenance you’ll ever do! Car manufacturers saying their vehicles are good for 20K miles is a load of nonsense in the long run. The second owner is buying a lot of problems/headaches 🤦♂️
58K and needs turbo replacement? Something not right there
First?

Love BMWs, but you need money to keep them on the road. They can’t be run on a budget.
Another 10-20k miles and the engine will down again because of the bearings 😢
BMW engine is an absolute contraption 😅
Great job ED,im DEFINITELY NOT a lover of ANY DIESEL CAR 🤷belongs in a Tractor 🚜 sounds like a bag of nails….3 Turbos on a 3 Ltr 🤷🤷definitely something I’d NEVER buy if it has turbos fitted..I’ll stick to my V8s with fuel injection 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻PETROL ENGINES RULE 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
