- Over the course of the last year, I took on the endeavor of building a N54 powered E91 Wagon. Through weeks of work and learning, I was able to create this BMW that was never sold in the US!

This guy knows more about a BMW, than the 200 engineers that designed everything. Extremely impressive…
Hard to prophecy the future lol.
As a guy with almost no car knowledge what you did is just blowing my mind.
Enjoyed the commentary as well explaining each bit of what you are doing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is what I call HUGE knowledge! Nice project man!
Much appreciated!
Wicked recap, what a great video idea! Insane amount of work, well done.
Great build Chris. It was worth every minute of wrenching! Dutch regards and have a great weekend, Nico.
I really enjoyed watching this, thanks for sharing
what an amazingly comprehensive build - long live the longroofs!
Absolutely beautiful work! Amazing and very informative. Great job! Keep up the great work!
I have a 2008 328xi wagon in the same color. One upgrade that I just did that is totally worth it is changing out the roof racks to the low profile ones that come on the 11 and 12 model years. Awesome build!
Wowww.. you have put soo much work into that car !! Great build ... i hope you keep it !!
Nicely stitched building video! It was a joy to watch!
Glad you enjoyed it, Juha! 🙏
Dang, that was impressive! Thanks for sharing your work!
just incredible !! Love from Germany !
Your job is incredible!
Nice build, well done
The knowledge, holy moly 😮
I'm sure you learned from failing over and over, but man you do things with such ease. Great work
Very nice vid and demo of every tools that worth the price ! cheers from France ;)
Cheers thanks!
nothing better then a clean bmw wagon
Utterly superb guy's.
So awesome. I just got an E46 325 wagon with 5spd. Thanks for some inspiration
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment 🙏
Awesome build Chris! You are my only other "After 1-video Subscription" since ChrisFIX lol.
Current F31 owner here, I'd much rather own a E91 instead and a N54 E91 just checks every single spec on my wish list. The amount of knowledge and attention to details that displayed in the video were truly amazing. Keep them contents coming!
Sweet build. I’m prepping to do a ls swap in my 07 e91.
Just amazing!!!!
Damn nice work done👍
I would love to work on cars but as I was a kid I always tried to fix my controllers and always ended up in the end with more screws than I had
I’m impressed
WOW !!!!! Amazing !!!!!!!
I am so confused by the timing of various things that happen in this video. Why the hell wouldn't you do rod bearings/oil pan/turbos/charge pipes/etc., etc., etc., while the engine was out? You did all this work and didn't do a manual conversion? A 200k donor engine? The knowledge and work on display here is crazy, but I'm very confused by a lot of what I'm seeing.
Thanks!!
So jealous. I have the same color same year 328i wagon. Its already a rear wheel drive and has the mSport and I drive…perhaps one day this same swap will happen. Excellent content!
Thanks and good luck with your build!
wow.. cool car, cool video..
Style 172 wheels look very nice on the wagon
Wow congratulations on your channel I like your videos your one of the few people who explain everything in detail I have a question I been dieing to a swap like this what are the steps if you wanted to do a Xi to Xi swap
Cool build are transformations You're a detailed video is awesome
I wish I was a mechanic I had all that shit to fix my beamer
Im pissed u didn’t do a final show pff drive and some pulls! This was awesome lol
Hi there! Thanks for this awesome video it really helps me know more about my car. But I have the e90 316i and I have a question I really want to just make it a little bit faster I bought better rims that is 16" just like the original and I want that turbo you got there so If I get it will it work with my engine?
Top Job 🙂
Thanks 😁
youre underrated asf
I have a mate who's got the 2008 320d version of these e90's and I recently did work on it and have a few other jobs to do, one of which being a matrix replacement and Im just wanting to know if you have any tips or tricks to make it easier for me to do this as I'm 90% sure it's a dash out job.
Luckily I'm in college for motor vehicle and am a aspiring mechanic so anything I can learn is good.
Cheers
Brother, forgive me I just discovered you now... In the process of creating an M2 comp from a 220i body, I thought I knew BMWs until I met you 😮😮😮
Wow, really impressive. Awesome job!!! Can I ask you a question? While you have rebuilt the E91, were you able to see sunroof drain hose? My E90 has clogging issue on that. Would like to know whether it can be replaced by myself. When I tried to find the hose, it looked hidden inside the frame.
It is hidden inside the frame, your best bet is to try washing it out with water/degreaser, or poking it with a dull thin stick, something bendy. But I imagine it's either clogged closer to the top or bottom, so maybe grab a boroscope and try to see if you can find the plug first! I have this one: amzn.to/46bMks3 (affiliate)
Did you have to change any wiring for the dme connectors?
Didn't change the connector, but did have to repin a few things to make it communicate with the car properly!
Wow that’s impressive..
Great channel, sub‘d!
I also drive an E93 N54 335i 😊
greetings from germany
Thanks for the kind words! Good luck with your car :)
What was the red stuff that you used around the outside edge of the front crank seal?
RTV Sealant, I have a full video on my channel showing how to do it!
dope
Hey sir, what size garage do you have to be able to do all that ?
Standard 2 car garage, nothing fancy except my quickjacks! Thanks for watching
Insane build. Wondering what wheels / wheel setup youre running?
E60 550i Wheels, style 172. They're 19in, kinda big but looks mean on the wagon!
Привет , скажи -что даёт сигнал на оранжевое реле , что бы включился насос вторичного воздуха ?
I don't know, I personally would have done the manual transmission instead another automatic one
I have been doing research for months now for my 08 535i wagon after I took it to my local jiffy lube for a oil change come to find out 1-2 weeks later one morning (6am)about hop in the car to go to work i noticed the ground wet didn't mind it bc I had rain that night. The turned on detected check oil level I was shocked bc I had just service it, when I took off It marked again 1 minute after. when back around and parked it (5 minutes later) grabbed my other car to get work. Didn't see til later that day there was oil already there from my thinking it was just wet from rain. They forced the filter cap, cracked it, tried clueing it eventually exploded. now my engine is seized. Jiffy Lube told me F## off it wasn't there fault SMH but then they were the only one to put hands on it (I'm not a car guy at all)but I always wanted like caught my attention the tuning and performance scene. This my first bimmer. The car is in top shape just doesn't run bc that situation with jiffy lube. I do want to bring it to life .WHAT I DO? atleast to bring it to life(if its the budget in the moment ill be looking forward tuning it etc)
Were/are you tempted to do a 6-speed manual swap? 🤔
Yesss, but I wasn't sure how much value it would add to the car, and it would have been a ton more work/money to source the parts, etc. The next owner plans on doing a 6spd swap in the future! Thanks for watching
How much harder would it be to swap a awd 335xi engine into an e91 and retaining the awd?
It would be much easier to swap a 335xi into a 325xi e91, since you won't have to modify the dsc or transmission components.
so is the column swap necessary?
No, just for my build since I wanted to remove the factory steering lock! Thanks for watching
Hey I’d really appreciate some advice here I want to do this my donor car is a 07 e92 but it was totaled from the rear auto non XI if I find a non XI 07 wagon I should just be able to swap the motor and wiring right ?
Yeah the motor should fit and the harnesses should be the same too! Would be a good swap
@@TheBimmerBarn what about the coupe front end is it Possible to do that because I think it would be a great look I’m having this idea from the e90 m3
@@TavianM Nah unfortunately it won't line up. To do the e90 m3 look you'll need the e90 M3 front end.
@@TheBimmerBarn ok and the e90 M3 will just bolt on to the e91 chaises right and 1 more question if I get a e91 Rwd manual I shouldn’t have a problem swapping my auto gauge cluster and it should just bolt on because that’s my plan I’m just gonna upgrade the clutch for more power instead of using my auto trans
@@TavianM yeah the instrument cluster is plug and play too, but might need to be coded after swapping to manual!
Sick work, tho I don't really understand why you'd turn an AWD car into an RWD car.
Uh, WAY more fun!! !
Burnouts
I knew all this and I haven’t even studied it idk why
Аплодируя стоя 👍👍👍
this thing needs european headlight. my goodness those US version lights look bad...

Labor for all this will cost like 3 cars
It's extremely cool just ended up a little borring in terms of looks and sound, looks like something some lifeless buisnessman would drive not a carguy you know what i mean? No hate tho, sick build
Exhaust sounds like shit
Yup like a diesel
Why do you use those idiotic red cheapo wire-tap connectors?? Known fact is that they don`t work anywhere. You just make more problems for your self...
Yup. I'm gonna do it
Picking up a 2006 325xi wagon
And swapping over all my 335i
