Now you too have command & control over those hydraulic lifters, Well done !

Winning feeling when that ticking sound disappears...

Not true

adding 5 liters of oil in a Kia Picanto 1.2 engine will almost certainly cause serious engine damage shortly after firing up. The rated oil capacity following an oil and filter change is 3.6 liters, read up details in this video description or carefully check your vehicle service manual

On the owner’s manual kia said that the oil capacity il 2,9 liters for the 1.0 and 3,5 liters on the 1.25.

FYI I did not encounter any engine ticking issues in my 1999 M52TU engine (bought new, done 150 000 km) and not aware of serious valve lifter oil starvation issues on the M54 engines. Ticking noises can also originate from your fuel injectors or from the Vanos mechanism, sometimes due to low oil pressure or degraded oil

It worked on mine :)

You're right - It is true of most cities all around the world (& I have visited many - Paris included)

Howdy - yes it's temporarily fixed if the car is not frequently used. When the car is used regularly this procedure will probably only be required to be applied periodically (I guess every couple of years or so). Caused by oil starvation in hydraulic lifter(s) requiring bleeding when ticking is detected during startup - lifter is sucking up air instead of oil. Permanent fix requires removal of the cylinder head & lifter replacement. If the described procedure is not applied at the first signs of ticking, the tick can become permanent which I witnessed, forcing you to remove the cylinder head to replace all the lifters, while the converse is true - attended to early by applying this procedure or periodically as required can allow your engine to go tick-free for almost the rest of it's useful life. I'm guessing BMW engineers were at the edge of the lifter oil circuit specification limits (as they usually are in their component designs - which is why they can extract the last kilowatt out of any of their engines), and with these hydraulic lifters slight deviations in manufacturing tolerances (socket, plunger, body, check ball) account for the oil supply issues. Not catastrophic in the early stages but you don't want your silky smooth BMW V8 or N52 6 cylinder sounding like there's a bag of marbles loose in the engine.

Durban still looks beautiful Keep it up

@@tumbleweed7700 awesome! thank you. My model picanto is also 2014! could you do a vid on how to change the oil filter?

@@NarutoUzumaki-mx1mo-san. Done. Check out my oil change video for the 2014 Picanto

E39 M5 is a Keeper

Stays away as long as you don't keep the car in extended no-start mode for months on end. But if it does return, just takes 3-4 minutes of "bleeding" to resolve the oil flow in that affected lifter. BMW can do a permanent resolve "for an arm & a leg". Have seen/ heard an E90 6 cylinder engine just get worse because the owner didn't perform this simple procedure & also didn't want to take the car in to replace the lifter. My brand new E90 6 cylinder engine used to do this when i had <10 000 km on the clock. Performed this procedure twice when I first heard the ticks. Engine now has covered over 140 000 km & purrrs like a cat. This is not a catastrophic mechanical issue as long as the owner recognizes the symptoms then does something about it. Importantly that tick won't go away after just driving "normally" even for extended periods, the procedure has to be performed as demonstrated.
