Hi, there’s an email address on my UA-cam channel homepage - you should be able to see it if you’re logged in.

Hey Bill, the owner finally bought the remaining parts few weeks ago and I’m currently rebuilding this engine. I guess we are gonna have a few vids up shortly

Hi, I think it depends on the car’s condition and whether you’re rebuilding it to keep the car or re sell it after it’s complete. If you’re building the car for yourself and can do most of the work it is definitely worth it however if your intention is to buy a cheap E70 X5M for example, you will not be able to make much money considering the time you spent on the rebuilt. That journey of rebuilding the whole engine is definitely something you will remember forever 👍

@@dnl35projects I am looking for a m5f10 from 2015 in good contidion, but I really appreciated your opinion. I have subscribed to you! Good luck👍

👍

Correct

That’s the best way to ensure it’s done properly

That’s something I really would like to know as well ! Let me know if you have any clues

@dnl35projects oil bottle cap maybe 🤔 fell in then again how did it get to pistons ? Unless it melted to a think liquid

Thanks

I'm not sure what oil was in the engine at the time of failure however I always use 5w40 in the S63 engine as climate here in Australia is pretty average (not too cold or too hot)

It doesn't have to go that high because we are removing the front bumper and basically sliding the engine out to the front of the car however you also need a scissor lift table or some sort of engine crane (to drop the engine and transmission on it, then drag them forward once all subframe bolts have been removed/engine dropped. My lift goes up about a metre and you have to be extremely careful when the engine is out as the car will tend to tilt back as the lift is raised.

awesome ! they are great cars if serviced correctly

@dnl35projects awesome, thanks for the content... I need to service my trans and diffs. I like to change all fluids so I know when it was done 😅

Hi, its a 1 metre hight scissor lift

They are worthy if youre good with tool and can do mechanical stuff yourself

@@dnl35projects yessir the only way I got through with my n54 🤣🤣

Hi and sorry 😣 I’m killing myself for taking so long but the parts have finally arrived and we started rebuilding this engine on Monday - I’d say another week or two for the engine assembly videos and maybe a month or so till we can get it running and do another review

@@dnl35projects can’t wait. Love the honesty on your vids.

Thank you !

I won't challenge what the engineerings decided when they came up with that thermostat and all consequences attached to changing it's temp. My honest believe is that these engine will run cooler when service is done more often and properly. I see people not servicing their cooling system or just filling up with water and when you do that you create air pockets in the system causing it not to work as effectively.

Yes, one solenoid to control each vanos (one per camshaft)

Hi, your engine is likely to be a non-TU N63 which is almost the same as the one in this video - We are happy to help with your rebuild, contact us via email for a more detailed quote.

Hi, I bought some BMW manuals and also have a friend who works at BMW

@@dnl35projectsI gotta a buddy at bmw too ill ask em, and what manuals did u use where they online downloads, did you also buy special tools from BMW for this job, I’m looking to maybe rebuild my n63 soon

감사합니다. 동영상이 마음에 드셨다니 다행입니다.

Thank you for your support !

Timing chain wear on the F85 is not as bad as in the E70 but still cannot be ignored. There is a way of checking how stretched the chains are it by inspecting the tensioners (small lid behind the intercoolers) however if you want to replace the chain is definitely an engine-out job and rebuild. basically there is no way to replace the chains without removing the timing cover and in order to do so, you first have to remove the sump and the engine heads to be able to remove/install the timing cover.

I am no expert in engine oil and would highly recommend you stick to the viscosity BMW recommends - I'm in Australia where the average temp is about 25c and only use a quality 5w40 in all my S63 engines. If your car isn't burning oil I'd say stick to the oil you are currently using or shift to a 5w40 (not 5w50)

Yes we finally resumed the F10 project and should be having some new vids in a couple of weeks time.

Yes I really dont understand how BMW would recommend to do the service in some countries and say its a lifetime oil in others .... The best thing with this cars is to be pro-active and you are gonna be avoiding headaches !

Give me a few years, I might open a BMW shop 😅

Thank you ! thats the sort of feedback which keeps me going :)

Thank you ! We finally managed to get the remaining parts and should be making a "part 2 video" pretty soon !

There are a few reasons why they burn through oil however the most common since you replaced all listed above would be the Valve Stem seals. What car do you have and whats the mileage ? I use 5w40 here in Australia and even after a full engine rebuild my car still uses about 1 litre of oil every 1500-2000kms with absolutely NO visible smoke - (only on the first run when at the drag races)

Hi, we got the block sleeved and will hopefully have this engine back together in a month or two if the owner come up with the financial resources needed for buying remaining parts.

Cool ! I have great expectations for this engine too

Unfortunately the customer had some financial issues and we were unable to progress with his build until last week - now that we received the final parts I believe you should see new videos coming up soon 👍

Hi, there’s an email address on the channel home page.

That’s awesome - I guess you’re looking after your car very week and doing regular oil changes 👍

Hi, it depends on what car you have but the engine must be taken apart for that job

Hi, we are waiting for funds from the owner so we can buy the remaining parts and start the build

PCV Hoses for sure are a good starting point - Buy or borrow a smoke machine and test the intake for leaks

@@dnl35projects replacing the PCV hoses this weekend

@@dnl35projects changed PCv valves and oxygen sensors. Smoke test negative. Long term fuel trim bank 1 went from 20’s and bring up check engine light to 10-15. Still high, maybe bad fuel injector?

Hi, our email address is in the channel home page - We are in Sydney

First of all, congratulations for thinking that way ! The best time to rebuild these engines is when they still run fine. With that in mind and considering your injectors have been replaced I'd say around $5k in parts (USD) plus labour which will vary depending on which country you are (another $5-10k) I'm about to put a video together about the costs and potential issues of the S63 and N63 rebuild

Thank you ! Yes I agree they are awesome cars ! My tip for you is to check for leakage in all fuel rail connections once you completed the job.

I don’t see any harm in lowering the temp for water thermostat however I prefer running OEM specs in all my cars. BMW could have made a lower temp thermostat if they wish. Flush your coolant system and ensure it is filled up without air pockets and it should work just fine.

Hi, I just got the block back from the machine shop and the sleeves are in however the car owner is a bit tight with money so it should be another month or so until he buys the remaining bits and I can assemble this engine.

I just ordered my Kingtec pistons and rods for my Golf 6R. The pistons is fully coated and the rods riffle drilled. I ordered straight from Kingtec.

You’re absolutely right ! Rod and main bearings are preventive maintenance in some of these high power BMW engines and in fact that’s what made me start this Channel in first place. I’ve done the rod bearings on my v10 M5 in 2019, along with an extensive service and the car has been running good ever since. I’m using ACL race series for rod bearings and King for main bearings - most of the engines I’ve done had relatively good main bearings but I rather spend the extra $250 and have the peace of mind the mains were done as well unless the car has less than 60-80k kms

@@dnl35projects Thank you for the reply. I appreaciate your dedication to the S63 and overall all performance M engines. It would've been great if only we had more experienced people and enthusiasts like yourself to get the job done and for the customer to enjoy his fresh S63.

Thanks ! Yes that an 100% avoidable issue

Hi, I’m unsure about the brand. It’s a scissors lift I bought used from Marketplace

You meant that cooler laying flat in front of everything ? Thats part of the low temperature system (cools the intercoolers)

@@dnl35projects I thought passenger side intake is for intercooler? Driver side is oil cooler, right?
