- Quick Edit of the Belt And Tensioner replacement we did yesterday.
Super easy… I was dreading this for a week, but man… gotta love the B58, this thing always surprises me with how easy things are.
We tried finding a B58 specific video but couldn’t, so we made our own. What we also saw was some people would use a T60 for the bolt in the middle of the tensioner to loosen it, we just used a 16mm socket to turn it to the right a bit, didn’t even need to remove chargepipe either! Just move it out the way slightly bend it up.
Check on your tensioner guys! All parts were bought from @fcpeuro 📦🔧 ✅

Check it out!
Thank you for this video! You are right there is hardly any content out for the b46/48/58
Thanks for this! I’m planning on doing this tonight. TIS says you have to remove the entire charge pipe to do the change, which is a total pain. Glad to see you could do it by just flexing the charge pipe out of the way.
One important thing! You need to replace that throttle body gasket any time you take the charge pipe off the throttle body. You’re probably fine not having done it, but it’s cheap insurance.
didn't think about it! but good tip! We got her on there real tight haha
Good video, and very helpful. I was wondering on my previous N57 engined car it was easy to remove the cooling fan to gain extra room. Is that easy to do on the later f series cars? It looks as if it would make access a lot easier.
Gracias hermoso !!!
Bro... I have been searching for this fucking DIY for SO LONG. You are much appreciated my dude!
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 THATS WHAT WE LIKE TO HEAR
How often should we change the belt ? After how many km or miles or years ?
@@CrazyMoh well if yours is acting Like mine did I’d say change it
@@CrazyMoh well if its squeaking , visibly worn, or tensioner is vibrating too much, do it.
Great video man. That little chirp noise is annoying and not talked about enough lol I have that going on alongside a leaking mechanical water pump. Might as well take care of both at the same time since I’ll have to remove the tensioner and belt anyways!
How many miles / km did the old belt do ?
Any reason why you changed the tensioner on the car? Did your's give out?
Great video gentlemen, I appreciate it!!! I’m having a hard time finding the toque spec for the three tensioner bolts, can you guys help out?
Not too tight lol honestly. I can get my service bimmer tech inside to see if there's something in the BMW Elder scrolls on that though.
@@b58racing I appreciate it. Google told me somewhere in the neighborhood of 14ft/lbs, so I went with a reasonable 168in/lbs. I thought about looking up the bolt grade and so forth, but decided that value was tight enough! LOL!
TIS says 28Nm
mine is B48 but since its modular and pretty much the same as yours, im so happy finally found your video !! but you didn't say about gasket in chargepipe next to throttle body, should I change the gasket after removing it ? or just unplug-plug and play ?
thank you bro
Whenever dealing with a gasket, the answer can always be yes and you probably won’t be wrong lol. I didn’t have one, don’t think I really need it. Maybe it I had more miles
Hi, I have a question what was the mileage/years that your tensioner broken?
All b58 content? And you’re not on some goofy shit? You got me to subscribe bro. S55 guy but it’s still all family business with us BMW folk lol keep progressing.
Peace.
🤝 that’s what we about
We’re going to add s55 / s58 line up, big changes happening, just gotta catch up on all the b58 stuff first
Our IG has a lot more vids @B58Racing
No doubt. I’ll be growing with the channel regardless. Got it on notification for whenever you upload.

i was thinking of getting a m235i but then i shifted my mind over to a 340i, kinda torn on what one to get. gonna tune the car to about 450-500hp and want it to still be pretty reliable
Get mine for 32k 🤝 it’s already 450whp or so
go with the B58 man, you wont be disappointed. or if you can swing it, m240i would probably be the goldilocks for you. b58 is such an awesome platform (totally not biased cause I have a 340i myself 😂)
At this point, 100% go -40i. You will not regret it, lol. If you don’t get one of the M-lites, make sure you read up on packages so you don’t kick yourself later (e.g., M Sport, M Performance, track handling, etc.). With a B58TU HPFP, a DP, a tune, and a little E; you’ll meet your power goals easily. Get a Pure800 or another similar turbo, and then you can stay on 93 and make like ~550whp.
