***AFTER SOME CAREFUL THOUGHT, I'm going to hold on to this new grill until I can find a reasonably priced LCI hood. The plan is to make the old grill work for now, and when I get a new LCI hood, I'll already have the LCI grill to go with it.
YES!
Definitely get the LCI hood. I feel the front of my E91 is very flat looking - the extra ridges down the middle of the LCI one give it a much more aggressive look.
I would pretty much like to copy your front end conversion but M Sport LCI bumpers are pretty expensive in the UK (new). There are a load of M3 pattern bumpers on eBay but I'm a strong believer that M3 parts should only be for M3s ;)
I'd recommend to not cheap out on a hood. Better save up a bit longer and buy a better hood.
Nikos Yiannos what’s wrong with getting an original BMW hood for a good price?
I have the same double lined kidney grill for my 06 E90 and it fits perfectly like stock. No modification needed. Wonder why yours don’t fit.
This is a timeless bmw design, chris bangle was the best designer bmw had, this car did not age at all.
Bs, the E90 was designed by Joji Nagashima , the guy who designed E39. E39 is considered to be timeless design. E90 is also beautiful. Chris Bangle desinged the ugly E60 model, the only thing good about that car is the sound of V10 in M5.
@@iFunzioChannel You smokin crack if you don’t think the E60 is a good looking car
lmao the e90 wasn't designed by bangle
Joji Nagashima designed the exterior of the E90 versions of the BMW 3 Series, the E39 version of the BMW 5 Series, and the Z3 Roadster
Thanks for this upload Justin. I became the proud owner of a 2007 320I about 6 months ago. Mine has the 2l 4 cylinder enginer. What an amazing car! Your channel has been a huge help for me to learn lots about the car. Have done my own oil changes and will do the air filter soon. Have a great 2020 :)
Air hose was near impossible to put back in. Found a great tip on a forum: use a hair dryer to warm up the hose before putting the air box back in and it slid right in.
I've been watching your channel for awhile now. I really dig the video quality and your methodology to taking on projects. Keep it going man!
You just saved me $222. I bought the Auto Zone kit for $32 which included 5 quarts STP full synthetic oilI, extended life oil filter and ext life air filter. I had to pay an extra $4 for the ext life oil filter and an additional $4 for the ext life air filter plus 2 extra quarts of synthetic oil $8 each) so total came to $56 with tax . I followed your instructions and finished the job in 45 min. Auto Zone takes the old oil for free. The shop quoted me an estimate of $150 for the oil change plus $128 to change out the air filter for a grand total of $278. I paid $56 total after watching your video. Thanks bro🙏🏻
Just used this as a quick guide to speed up swapping out my filter. Thanks!
Super descriptive and helpful my dude! Appreciate you
Always great to watch your videos! Get such chill vibes off them
I just love your insane video quality and your way of editing
makes it so satisfying to watch... Keep up the good work man
Thank you!
Completely agree with how clean BMW air filters remain. I live in Arizona (home of dust storms) and after two years and 20k+ miles on my E46 330 coupe, my cabin air filter looked brand new! Replaced it anyway, of course. 😉
You are a valuable member to the community. Thank you for helping us safe ton of money. You’re the best!!!
It's amazing how it transforms the old bmw look to modern in just clipping those bits and pieces together!
Wow your content has improved drastically!!! Nice job man and I can’t wait to see you hit 100k😎
Thank you!
Nagyon jó, minőségi videókat készítesz. Így tovább😉
Love watching your “How to Videos”! Your animations make it easy to fallow along! Would you happen to have a video on HOW TO CHANGE SPARK PLUGS??
Nice video ! Awesome effects
The b-roll in this is amazing babe!
Thanks!
OK, very nice tutorial. I watched this to make sure I didn't forget anything. Only thing I would do differently is diconnect the MAF sensor electrical connector at the clip rather than removing it from the air box. Those things are pretty delicate. The clip, which is about an inch from the MAF box, lifts up with a very small screwdriver. You can see it with a flashlight. Also, be careful not to knock the small rubber bumper of the frame of the car when removing the air box. I found mine sitting on the skid plate the first time I did this filter change. Without the bumper, the filter housing is sitting directly on a screw sticking up. Thanks for the video, very helpfful!
Hey man big fan of your vids, they trully help out💯 keep up the good work👍. #thrive for 100k🔥
I really really appreciate this, saving me a lot of money
You’re the Mann 👍🏼
That intro was butter! 👌🏼
Thank you!
great video man and love your music taste.
Thanks!
Great diy that was Very usefull thanks
Be glad you don't have 320D with M47 - surely the most complicated air filter on any BMW!
Liking the tool overlay graphics :)
Easy process but thankfully they made it even easier in the f30 BMW, 4 clips and boom you're done in 30 seconds. Mann is OEM for my car.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend
thanks!
I love the animations! I will say that it'd be kind of cool if you changed the direction of the spin to correlate with loosening or tightening bolts and screws. It'd be a cool easter egg type of deal.
Wonderful video. Keep doing !
Excellent quality video
Thanks!
awesome content for my e90 too. 🔥
Hi Justin! Your videos are very helpful, I have problems with one of the head lights, I put a new one and it’s not working do you know what would be?
Hi Justin I had some difficulty getting the air intake hose to line up correctly with the filter box. Also the MAF unit can stay on and the connector plug just pops right off. Thanks!
Thanks man - cool video
So freaking relaxing your video 😊
Thanks!
This really helped me out just did this to my car
This is an easy maintenance thing to do, no matter your expertise on cars, but I find this box to be a bit...hard to get to for a simple fix. I'm planning on doing a Euro intake box swap to make it easier to work on, but was wondering what you think of doing that. Two of my higher priority mods to my 325i is the 3 stage intake with 330i ECU flash, plus the euro intake...the E90 is just too good of a car to get rid of. I'm at 132k miles and IDK what happens, I'm not getting rid of this car!
Ya my E90 / E91 320i took a round or circular filter type, so definitely different as you mentioned with different engine types.
Just got my BMW and done the engine oil, cabin filter, air filter, power steering fluid and coolant so next will be the diff.
Luckily the previous owner has the receipts for transmission being done not so long ago. Can still wait a few years for that one.
Have you got a video on the diff fluid change and have you got one on the fuel filter change as well?
hey Justin was wondering what kind of engine coolant do you add to your bmw do you go with the bmw grade? i dont have a bmw dealership in my town and was wondering if i can buy it at a gas station?
Can never go wrong with a Mann filter
I'm having a lot of trouble putting the airbox back into the car, my alignment is always off and at the end the t20s don't align with the car holes. Any tips for how to have an easier process getting the airbox back into the car? Thank you!
Cool t-shirt. I’m a t-shirt junkie so of course I got one. Nice pics too.
hi mate i have an e92 coupe n47 engine 320d i want to upgrade my air filter for better sound do you think it will work on diesels and is it safe to install?
Shoutout from Kentucky bro!!
I'll be in KY in a few weeks for Import Alliance
Hell yeah! I’ll definitely have to look out for you man
Crispy intro 🔥
Thanks man!
Good job. The only I would do different is remove the sensor by disconnecting the connector.
Hey Justin. You dint mention the torx size for the air box
You should do a video on how you color grade . Awesome video 👍👍
Thanks! Im still learning color grading 😫 havent got it completely figured out yet, but I’ve been practicing
thank just finished mine😎
Dope!!
can you do a video comparing your e90 to a f30???
My air filter box won’t come off, I unscrewed the clamp and everything, should I just apply generous force or ?
About how often should you change the engine air filter on an E90?
Yo what camera do you use man??
How do you know when the filter is going bad?
Hey Justin, sweet video. I think you should make a video on how to change a fuel filter, I bet your bmw still has the original one!
Nice video quality and graphics
That is a lot of screws and bolts just for an air filter :O
Thanks! On our Scion FR-S the air box just has two clips that hold the filter in. You can change the filter in seconds. BMW makes it a little more difficult lol
lool i was going to say the same, my moms civic has two clips too, no tools needed
my car has 8 x torx25 .. also time consuming and not everyone has torx
justin do a steering wheel swap vid
What size torque screw I need ?
Hi, sorry for being a little off topic. I'm in the market of buying a 2008-2009 BMW. I discovered your videos about what to look for and what breaks down and they convinced me even further to choose this brand. However in my area the diesel engine ones seem to be cheaper. What do you think about the reliability and common problems in models such as 318d 320d 118d 120d ?
those weren’t sold in the us
I just ordered a European air box from like $90 from the UK eBay. Should be dope.
Thanks. You just saved me $150 at seattle bmw.
yo Justin is there anyway I can contact u by email or sum, I like the music for ur vids and wanted to submit music for ur vids that I make
Purchased the same filter and Lux lights and both were different for my BMW 335i convertible 🤔.... cabin air filter the same though
The 335i has a different engine
Well I know now .... probably should’ve looked under the hood before buying Amazon told me it was a got fit it lol.... Videos are very helpful and instructional you do it with such ease . Thanks
love u
Hey man nice video! Does your e90 ever have overheating problems ? I’ve got a 320i here in the uk and it the engine seems to get really hot after 30 min of normal driving in traffic.🧐
I havent had any issues with mine. Are you getting an overheat warning? Check engine light? Make sure your coolant is topped off and then check your water pump. Water pump failure is a common problem on E90’s
Justin Buice thanks man! No light has come on yet, but I’d open the bonnet after 30min in traffic and an hour or so after long drive, all the pipes connected to the coolant and the coolant housing itself would be in burning temp(untouchable)...I’ve been doing a lot of research online, some suggested doing a coolant bleed to get rid of air bubbles... is this something you’d recommend?
How do you know when it’s time to change it ?
I do mine twice per year. You can do it every time you change your oil so you dont forget
Why do some air filters look different? Some are flat and some looks like a cylinder
Does the MAF sensor need to come out or can I just unplug it and work around it ??
you could just unplug it
@@justinbuice thank you for still helping on your old e90 videos your the best man love your new bimmer btw
I feel like disconnecting the MAF sensor electrically is a little easier and maybe keeps it cleaner. Nitpicking aside, good video.
Thanks! I was having trouble getting the clip to come off so I just unscrewed it 😅
Nice, but BMW E90 with N52 engine (black engine cover) have a circular and much easier filter to change
Daniel Gervasio this is the n52 engine my friend
Hi Justin quick question. Where can you buy genuine BMW parts online? Thanks in advance
www.fcpeuro.com
Wish i had the patience to edit my videos like that..
How frequently should filters be replaced?
Im not sure the exact interval but I do mine twice per year. You can do it whenever you change your oil so that you dont forget. They are pretty cheap, just a little time consuming compared to other cars
What about the cabin air filter?
Thats even easier, look up videos on or even videos on spark plugs will show you how
What video did you watch to learn how to do that edit at 1:00?
I kinda just figured out how to do it. In Illustrator I made a path around the air box, then brought the path in to After Effects and put it above the footage layer. Then added trim paths and adjusted the end position. Then I used a mask at about 30% opacity to create the reflection and set position key frames to create the reflection movement
Please please please don't saw the kidney grills up. Just install your new grills and install the correct LCI hood to go with them.
my e92 has a different air filter
How can you tell If you need to replace it or not
I replace mine every year. If you cant remember the last time it was changed, it's probably due for replacement.
True lol
Dude just unplug the sensor lol
Dude I cringed so hard when I saw that 😂
I said the same thing out loud. Lol
This is what i meant when I said you chose the more complicated way :)) Now you have to change the hood, it's gonna look great, by waaay to expensive man :(
It’s all good, it will be worth it in the end 😎
If you like the LCI more, yes it would :)
Why not put a cold air intake?
Sammy B it makes the car slower
It's probably best/easier to just disconnect the MAF connector rather than removing it
In my opinion it was a mistake to try to give your car the LCI look.you could just upgrade to m packet front and rear bumper and it looks also amazing and stock.Now you will fell like you wanna change the rear toot just don't look correct.Apriciate your videos tho.
I dont have to do this with my 1999 BMW It's much simpler than this
RIP E91 users
Bmw wants $180 to change my cabin filter in my 2011 328i. Seriously?
Ksi won don’t @ me
man that music is so annoying it makes it hard to watch with me with al that water like sounds on the background
Damn I can change my air filter in 30 seconds on my Accord, no tools needed.
TheBaz568 its still an accord though lol. Jealous much?
@@ronalsanchez324 The Accord may not be sporty but it has a great interior on the higher trim models.
Jesus couldn't BMW make it easy access??
I have a 2017 340i now and it's super simple. 5 clips. I can change it in 30 seconds. Not sure what they were thinking when they designed this one!
The old one was still brand new lol
Probably much easier when you are living at your parents house..
I don’t live with my parents..
