Big thank you for this series. I'm currently taking out my n52 and having to come back to see how you did things. Cheers!
Your welcome! Glad it could help. It's not too hard when you can see someone else do it once and make all the mistakes first, then make UA-cam videos about it 😂😂😂
A sincere thanks for making these videos! I have the same car and starting the engine swap today.
Send me some photos on IG. I wanna see. Good luck!
Yo how has it been? Deadass was about to install an lsd on my 330i 6speed w 200k miles lol and now im deciding about swapping engine due to low oil pressure light and 2a82 vanos code
Is it a low oil light or a low oil pressure light? Wouldn't that give you a code?
Swapping my 06 330i... your channel is such an amazing tool for reference, almost have it out!
Let's gooooo!!! 🙏🏼 Send some photos of your swap in Instagram
Aye bro I’m doing that same swap right note any advice?
You should put the two tyres near the jack stand.
I'll be watching this a lot more. I bought two 09 E90's which were totaled. One with left side damage and the other with right side. Ill be making one good car out of the two. And bought a third car, a 2011 E91 Sport package with manual transmission that needs everything replaced forward of serpentine belt. Think it hit a deer but not sure. The E91 has immaculate dealer services on its CARFAX. And I own a former CPO 2011 E90 as my daily driver. Love me some N52 power. I am excited haha. Thank you.
thats awesome. you are really putting in some work. hope you got them cheap enough to make it worth your time. you can get a good e90 for cheap these days. are you gona put these videos on youtube or instagram? would love to see that.
@@buildanddrive got the E91 delivered today off the treiler. Frame and strut mount is damaged, didn't anticipate this. And also had an electrical problem. The battery in the car was shot showing 2.4V and draining blue GEL battery acid everywhere. When I hook a good battery up to the Jumpstart terminals under hood, nothing happens and the trunk terminals show me 51 Volts on the voltmeter.
You need to replace the accident fuse thing in the red cable of the battery. It's goes if in accidents to prevent a fire
@@buildanddrive 🤯😳🤦♂️
@@buildanddrive I'm finding there is a IBS sensor on the negative side. And something on the positive. So much unknown on this. Lots of UA-cam comments on other videos of similar problems and similar questions. I'll have to see if my HAYNES and BENTLEY manuals has anything on this. All confusing to.
Your content is mint bro! My first car was an 05' 325i E90 too and I did a lot of stuff myself and learned a lot with the car. Meanwhile I had an E46 330i and currently I own an E61 525d and an E92 335i. Are you located in Germany? Keep up the good work!
I would love a 335i!!!! They are awesome! 🙏🏼 Thanks for the kind comment. The videos were fun to make and I also learned alot in the process. Hope you can keep your cars running fresh. These BMWs are awesome but require some love here and there.
@@buildanddrive Wow that answer was fast! I love your detailed view on all the major steps, nothing skipped and easy to follow. You should have way more followers! I'm watching your other content now, greetings from Niedersachsen
Perfect but you also should of replaced the timing chain guides to not worry about it in the future
They looked in great condition so I left them. I think they were done recently
This is what I’m talking about!
Thanks bro
Read the service manual,if you disconnect the air-conditioning hose and exposed for more then 24hrs, you need to change the dryer.
Yes, I show this in much later videos while the radiator and AC condenser is out of the car 👌🏼
You don't need remove the bumper or radiator. I remove only the gearbox and the intake manifold and the ventilator. But if you like more loose dismantle the exhaust manifold. The AC compressor and water pump disconnect and wait on the frame
Yes, I tried to remove the exhaust manifold but it was really really difficult. I didn't have a good enough tool to reach the 10mm bolts on the manifold so I took it out with the engine. I also don't have a lift or transmission jack. So it was much easier to remove the front crash bar than take out the transmission in the driveway.
Will that engine fit in a 08 e87 118i?
I have a 2006 325i and im looking to remove the engine to put into a 2006 325xi. Are they compatible? Both are auto
You may have to swap the oil pan and engine mounting brackets from the 325xi engine onto the new motor. But it should work, just reuse the original 325xi transmission parts as well
Did you swap in the B30? Looking at opportunities to this to my 05 523i :)
Couldn't find one in good condition
starts at 4:00
Just came across this, my 06 z4 3.0si with this n52 started knocking. Be aware that the disa valve can break off into the air intake which mine did.
When we tore apart my donor engine it had a broken valve on cyl 6. I assume the disa broke to and something got in the valve
It's in one of my teardown videos
@@buildanddrive Oh really? well I havn't tore apart the engine yet but maybe I will start up top and pull off the head anyway. I was having trouble getting the intake off last time as I didn't want to break the pcv? oil return thing there. Funny thing was the car ran fine for awhile with it broken, not sure what exactly caused it to finally fail. Was your engine knocking and down on power? All my plugs are mint. I thought for sure it spun a bearing.
@@bOOmbOOmProd I don't know if the engine was low on power but I assume so. There was no compression on cyl 6. ua-cam.com/video/0-g5Riu7JT8/v-deo.html
+1 great video. great info...
i have a 128i with oil leaks and fumes, and a idle rattle noise. it just turn 100k im planing on tsking the engine out replace all hoses and plastics, gaskets, valcover and intake. I read you can use a 300s intake and gain some HP. but not sure I live in USA CA Los angeles and dont wanna deal with polution problem. any tips or comments are welcome...😁🫶
Salut comment tu fais pour enlever les durites qui sortent du tout petit radiateur de direction assistée ?
Celles qui sont à droite en dessous des durites de refroidissement qui vont sur le radiateur
Push the hose towards the radiator. Press the white plastic tab on the hose in the opposite direction. Remove hose.
@@buildanddrive thanks u man. I will to try this saturday
Yea I did mine exactly the way you did and uh, it does t want to crank or start now….please help ?
No crank? Check your trigger wire to your starter is connected.
I have a 2011 328i xdrive, can I get any n52 out of any 2006-2011 e90? Does it need to be an xdrive?
Needs to be xdrive because it has a different oil pan I think
BMW n55
I wanted to see how you unplug the engine harness...
It's in the next video here: ua-cam.com/video/SnTwoaSQTX4/v-deo.html
ur good
Appreciate the comment! 🙏🏼
Hello I have a 2010 bmw E90 323i with the n52 engine currently broken and the motor I have to take is from Bmw E83 X3 3.0si
do you think it will match without a problem?
Yes it's possible. Is it manual or automatic because you'll need the correct parts and wiring loom.
Thank you for your feedback
it's an automatic
finally I did the swap with the new engine I just have a rough iddle problem with smoke coming from behind the engine
with the diag I find camshaft position errors I don't know if it's related or not@@buildanddrive
I want to see an n52 s65 swap
Can you sponsor it? 😍
Did you disconnect the ac condenser without removing the refrigerant?
It was discharged at a shop. This is under a lot of pressure. Do not try to disconnect the AC stuff by yourself. It's very dangerous and you can get hurt or sick from inhaling the fumes
I know I was taking off a compressor at the junk yard an they are supposed to be already drained . It blew off when I removed the high side line an blew all over me in my face . I would not recommend it. You could slowly release it from the shreader valve but it’s illegal to vent it to. Atmosphere where I live in u.s.
@@chadriddle3517 yes I once inhaled just a little bit of the fumes, and my lungs tensed up about 20mins afterward. It was not a nice feeling ☹️
@@buildanddrive sorry to hear that . That’s not a good feeling . Appreciate all the excellent Bmw n52 content !
@@chadriddle3517 thanks Chad. Be safe around those AC compressors!!!!
Why do people unscrew the engine cover? It's supposed to be pulled off, the screws are just for show
Some have functional screws i think
The screws do hold it in a bit better.
@@DanielScariti That’s the black cover engines, not the silver ones
whens part 2 bro i need it lol
Go for it. PART 2 is here: ua-cam.com/video/SnTwoaSQTX4/v-deo.html
@@buildanddrive i need all the parts if you have the links to them my brotha i like how you explained it its easy to remember
