@koolfredsbimmertech5617 The one covering the oil filter housing. I figured it out tho. It's 3 E8 torx bolts. Thanks for the reply. Good video.

oil filter housing & coolant outlet bolts are 8Nm. there 5 bolts in intake and 2 support screws E10. there are some coolant hose and brakes to watch out for. May have to jiggle the intake a bit to get it to come out .

@koolfredsbimmertech5617 Was finally able to get it out. The back part towards driving compartment wouldn't come out. Unscrewed a hose in the back and used angled pry bar and pliers to help. The visual you provided in the video of the inderside of the manifold was enormous help, realized I need to disconnect some of the hoses underneath too. Thanks a ton!

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 By the way, I found oil cooler and the upper radiator hose flange that you changed in these videos made out of aluminum and much cheaper on Amazon. Oil cooler was like $75 and the flange $20 when you include the Permatex RTV. They will never break, and if I ever have to replace something it is the gaskets which are only $20.

@@broderickrosario957 my channel is a leaning Experiance for all and not all about showing everyone how to just replace parts. I understand that some will be taking their vehicle to a shop or Euro tech. So I like to inform my audience of info based my years of Experiance from a technicians perspective. My channel is not for all.

@koolfredsbimmertech5617 My bad but good job

True that some do want all info

@@PlymitBoy The E70 X5 is still rolling. The N55 is the best engine option in the E70.

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617have you done the oil filter housing gasket? I’m seeing possible rod bearing failure after doing this if the engine is not primed correctly?

@@PlymitBoy I’ve seen maybe 2 of those at my shop. A N54 & N55. To prevent- best practice is to pour oil in the oil filter housing before housing the filter cap on. Around 1/2 qt

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 got it, I always prime any oil filter. The BMW filters are especially easy to prime considering they follow the path of gravity. Thanks for the reply!

I’m curious about the same thing, I’ve been looking for these o-rings but haven’t found them.

@@19nolo80 The Process is similar the part number is possibly different.

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 thank you

@@eduardocoello1909 I’m starting to believe the aftermarket ones have issues with the level sensor. It’s still an occasional problem on the car I worked on. We’re probably going back with a factory one from the dealer.

@koolfredsbimmertech5617 thank you, but is it plug and play? Or do i have to clear a code? I have a scanner and do not get any code because of low coolant, only on the dashboard of the bmw.. I changed mine today and still got the wrong reading :/

@@eduardocoello1909 it’s plug and play. The aftermarket and seam to have intermittent issues setting off the low coolant ck message falsely.

@@eduardocoello1909 I recommend going with a factory expansion tank.

@@RKSAINT I just disconnect the lower radiator hose and let it drain.

@@kenlovesMurica 90k

were you able to get it bled? also where did you drain the coolant from before performing the job?

@@MrElect0 Yes it is! Just have to inspect it regularly and ck for leaks and fix them.

@@OscarCastillo1 This one was leaking from the plastic plug on the bottom of the pump.

@@YUA-cam17 No Problem!

Had the same issue on my 19 X3 at 65k miles after a road trip. I was able to replace it without any issues in my garage. Now my water pump has the slightest leak from the plastic actuated component. Love this car but it is plagued with coolant leak issues!!

@@RKSAINT Wow I discovered mine at 66k miles. So true about the coolant leak issues, I had to replace my upper radiator hose a few months ago as well because it was leaking. I feel like I definitely need to check my water pump as well now because my AC has been acting up

Yeah man looks for build up on the black plastic components on the water pump. It’s very minor for me but I got a replacement ordered and a new belt so I’ll swap them out soon

​@@RKSAINT damn you too , just had mines replaced 66k miles

@@cuocsonguc335 it was leaking coolant where the plastic meets the rubber hose around the clamp area.

@@emperorsanders5744 I don’t even remember when you at the dealer and on flat rate sometimes u come up with a short cut. There is a clip on the charge air pipe at the turbo. Once that clip is out u good to go.

@@Yaheed_ yes Once u get the lines loose but it’s only the ones that connect to the turbo. If it’s the turbo line at the block the cat has to come out turbo can stay on on this one.

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 thanks bro I appreciate it I was able to get the lines out at the turbo end and I replaced the o ring tighten back up but it’s still leaking from that same line so my ? Is can the line it self be bad and leak even with new o rings

@@Yaheed_ yes is some cases the line leaks between the rubber and the metal pipe. R U working on a N20 or a B46 engine?

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 n20 same as the engine in your video

@@Yaheed_ Ok you have the B46 engine. I replace the turbo coolant rerun hose in my latest video. But if the coolant feed line is leaking then the catalytic converter has to come out to replace that one.

@@Yaheed_ In Atlanta

@@shawnconnolly6572 never came across that problem. May be a temporary bus communication fault. You can try to disconnect the battery for a few min reconnect and see if it will clear.

@@shadiomar4193 On this on I installed the aftermarket expansion tank. I think that’s the issue because the ck message comes up in the mornings then goes away. So we’re probably going to end up putting in a factory expansion tank from BMW.

@@mchaudry9811 It depends it can be 35k or 80k for the water pump. Oil filter housing is hit or miss. From what I see the oil filter housing happens over time when there are other coolant leaks. Engine is slightly overheated then melts or deforms the plastic housing.

@@bmwlane8834 Thx!

@@bmwlane8834 that’s funny. That’s exactly what it feels like. Like you’re doing a deep cleaning.

@@freddyfivefingers1 I just added it. But I strongly recommend for everyone to u their vin# and call your local dealer for part numbers because it’s so many versions of the B46/B48 engine. And from year to year you could easily get the wrong part.

@@koolfredsbimmertech5617 awesome thank you, I'll use it this as a reference

@@emperorsanders5744 Labor time to replace if the car is out of warranty is around 5.7 hrs. Then you would multiply that times your shops labor rate.

@@emperorsanders5744 Labor rates vary from state to state.

Thanks! A simple scan tool that reads live data and works with BMW is all u need. A launch crp 123 or 129x from Amazon will get the job done.
