I like watching this guy very professional and always seems to get the job done! I have looked everywhere to find someone to fix my headlight condensation issue, but not one will do it they only want to replace it, just goes to show you that good mechanics are hard to find 👍👍👍💪👍👍
Thank you for your appreciation! But I also prefer and recommend replacing it with a new one , repairing one you can't know when will fail again and there is labor intensive! So it will be expensive. And to have a quality repair with no return is to replace with new parts
Thanks a lot for the hope. Got this error on my 2018 X3. Dealer estimates $2000 to repair!!! Now I know, I need to check with my local body shop if they would do it. Thanks again.
Amazing video. BMW must hate you. I have AHL error message on my E60 lci. The dealership told me to buy new headlights, the indie shop told me to get a new LCM. I decided just to ask the indie shop to code out the AHL. I don't wanna deal with the headache. I really wish we had someone like you in my country.
Good video. I follow you from Barcelona (Spain). I wish I knew someone as professional as you here in my city to take my 2007 bmw x5 3.0d e70, for maintenance and/or improvements. It's nice to see how professional you are, your passion shows in what you do. I am sure you have a promising future ahead of you. Kind regards (by the way, my wife is from Bucharest ;))
Question: I like your tool for installing the plastic rivets on the fender. Can you tell me which one it is/ what company? It looks like a metal rivet tool, but I am sure it is not right?
You need to start trusting yourself more! Yes, it is a normal metal rivet gun , I have drilled bigger one head to accommodate the thicker plastic pins! 😉
@@MOvidiu I did exactly the same thing to mine, last month and all it did was choke on the plastic rivets. That's why I asked. Mine are Chinese rivets, maybe they are softer...Idk. 😂 did you do anything else apart from enlarging the hole?
Great video, thank you. It seems it's easier to do a heart transplant than to remove headlights from this car!! Question: what color is your E70? Is it arctic grey?
smart to the extreme clap to you. I changed my tms module and the angel eyes and turn signal still don't work and this adaptive appears too. ie this is a plug problem
Hey yo! He had made it the easiest so far for removing the E70 X5 headlight on UA-cam! You are dumb to remove the whole fender 😂😂😂 you just created more work!!
I have a 2012 640i and have a low beam failure on one side and in five years nobody has been able to determine the problem! What is going on with that?
Make sure the previous owner did frequent oil changes and not what the car manufacturers suggest, 12 to 15 thousand miles. He'll no WAY TO MUCH ON AN OIL CHANGE. No more than 5000 miles per oil change and if they did it and u purchase. I've been servicing the E70 for over a decade. I tried all the best oils. LIQUI MOLLY 5W-30 FULL SYNTHETIC WITH A LITER OF LIQUI MOLY MoS2 anti friction with ever oil 5000 mile oil change. AND GOOD FUEL IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT! I I run Shell V Nitro premium it's not the octane it's the additives package in the fuel that keep your car free from carbon building up. That oil and fuel have been a constant now in my E70's for years and they run PRISTINE. Make sure you always allow the car to warm up before driving and COOL DOWN if you were driving it hard with higher RPM's right before shutting it off. You do those things and you will have very little problems other than typical matinence. Enjoy ! it's and awesome vehicle. Show it some love and it will love you back. ( I even talk to mine and let them know how much I love them) 🫣😒
I need change on my e53 two smc modules(I have 2new modules),but at first I need repair problem with condensate in headlight,because my instalator change new glasses but done his job very bed!now after your video I want repair this problem by myself
Check all your covers with access to the bulbs. Clean them and make sure they close up tight if not go to a junkyard and get the cover or covers that don't seem like they seal airtight for a couple bucks. And if they all seem good get a tube of high quality CRYSTAL CLEAR NOT CLEAR , CRYSTAL CLEAR SILICONE.cut a very small hole in the tip and carefully run a nice continuous bead of silicone around where the cover connects to the bulb housing. You car even run painters tape around each side of the seam to get a professional looking bead of sealant. You must go around with your finger and pressing it in, in one smooth move around the cover seam to make sure it gets pressed in and seals. Let it set up for an hour and remove the tape. ITS NOT DRY AT THIS POINT SO LEAVE IT UNDESTURBED FOR 16 TO 24 HOURS. You'll be allset with that condensation. One more thing ,before you start get a hairdryer and take one of the covers off and dry the inside first or it will be trapped in there for a while.
