- If your turbo is rattling or you're getting boost related codes, this is the fix for you. Normally the BMW repair would be to replace the whole turbo, but that would cost thousands. Today, I'll show you how to fix them yourself for only 100$.

I can see now why the Dealer won’t replace it, and just goes for a full turbo swap. Thx for the vid
Every video you upload goes to my favorites folder
Excellent, informative, and well edited video. I don't even own a BMW, I just find your content mesmerising. Well done.
Yeah, this is the fix. My 2015 X5 has been getting drivetrain malfunction events, with a "low boost" code. Wastegate rattles up and down a crazy amount. Sounds like i have to drop the subframe... or the whole engine to fix this. Sigh....
For those wondering, it wasn't the bpv or the MAF. Dang wastegate. I've also replaced the ewg, and that kept me going for another 2 years without codes.
Bro that was the greatest Tutorial i saw online! Thanks for Sharing this with us!
Very nice video and detailed explanation. Hope I'll never need it though! :) Thank you!
Bravo you are amazing!
Nice work next time cover the oil intake. to be sure no debris wil get in.
Thank you for the video!
What welding machine did you use?
Exelent video! Thank you very much for this.
I have N63 engine, recently installed catless downpipes and I can hear my wastegates rattling now 🤦🏻♂️
Thanks to your video, I will try replace my wastegates.
Can I ask for a link where I can buy those wastegates? Thanks
This is the way
How many miles on the car? Great video! I did the same repair and it helped me a lot! Thanks!
Hello, what size is that long bolt to press the bushing out please?
Where can one get the insertion pin? I don't see it on the ebay kits.
Thanks
Great video. Your turbos have low kms, I'm scared to see how bad mine are with 150k.
Been having a n54 for a while but never drive it because I wanna tackle everything before it even gets to needing to be replaced at higher mileage, I think I’m about ready to do it all at once ….
well demonstrated VIDEO man ,
but i heard that the welding could be weakened and fail while operating, is that true or how this fix shall last?
thanks appreciated
Thank you! I wouldn’t worry about the weld as they are originally welded at the factory anyway.
@@bimmer.doctor seems legit! 😅
How's the 750li holding I'm sure it's flawless! Loved the series 👏
Any n54s soon ?
@@lou007 All working well! The newest series is on the N20 which I already have a couple of videos on. I don't think any N54s but there are other cool projects coming soon!
Install a thin wave spring washer in the shaft and flapper?
Correct me if I am wrong. Rattling is due to the worn shaft and flapper that when it is not closed, it is rattling. As long as certain vac is applied and the flapper can seal up the wastegate, there is no code (30FF) or performance issue, right? Even we can hear the rattling (during idle or when turbo is not used), if we adjust the rod (correctly so to the right Hg), flapper can ALWAYS seal up the wastegate, am I correct?
The adjuster rod isn't the issue. When the bushing is worn, the flapper doesn't always lay flat over the hole in the turbine, allowing for boost loss. Adjusting the rod will change the pressure on the flapper arm but if the flap is out of alignment to the hole, boost leaks occur.
I had the same issue on my N54. Under medium or heavy throttle it seemed that the rod was more able to pin the flapper shut to facilitate the boost demand, and it didn't leak. The problem occurred most often during part-throttle or throttle adjustment situations when the boost levels were lesser and the actuator rod wasn't applying as much pressure on the flapper arm, allowing it to move around more randomly.
For me it was adjusting from 110kmh-130kmh-110kmh when moving with the ebb and flow of freeway traffic. Suddenly the dreaded half-engine symbol would appear (reduced power) and the wastegates would immediately be sucked open, eliminating any boost. That's annoying and also dangerous when you're in the fast lane with all the big dogs.
Спасибо за видео и обзор 👍 можно попросить написать номера деталей, которые были заменены? Спасибо.
Thank you! Since this is not an official BMW repair, there is no part numbers, but if you search on eBay "wastegate repair kit n63" or whichever engine you have, it will give you lots of results. This only cost about ~100$ USD
Fixing my turbo, brb
Did it work?
@@Maverick-gu6uy of course it did. If you follow Bimmerdoctor's advice how could it not work?
Only $100 and $3K in tools!
