Don't ever feel bad for ""boring"" spots, I just like watching you work and ... FEELING like I learn something, so the more of it, the happier I am! Keep up the nice vids
I love this guys accent, his video editing and his work. only 28k as of oct 2018 i hope this channel gets big.
Het geluid van een perfect afgesteld mig/mag-apparaat is het mooiste wat er is :)
Wish bmw would have recalled this. Just but one an didn't know about the bad subframe. It's pretty bad on my left side in the rear 😭
Same, mine is basiclaly completely out, did u fix it?
Was recalled until 2010
heel interessante video blijf zo door gaan! hoe meer video's hoe beter!
Mig weld?
My e46 320i has the exact same kind of damage
Haal je ook alitjd de accu er wel uit? Voor de veiligheid is dat erg belangrijk bij dit soort dingen.
SALUT avez vous souder la cassure avant ? et protégé de l oxydation future ?
Great video thanks for sharing dhis information.
Great edit
Please tell me you welded the crack before welding the reinforcement plates
Would weld it for extra strength
I need to find what aluminium alloy is the chasis made of. Is it pure Al?
I remember when Luca used to upload videos :(
Hope you are ok man
I'm sorry. I've been really busy the past few weeks. I will do my best to edit and upload a video this week :)
Wow, good job!
I did this job on my e46 about 10 years ago. Instead of taking the subframe off i cut an access hole in the boot, removed the mounting brackets cleaned it all up and welded it up and then welded the boot back up.
Don't know if you'll see this. I have the problem right now. Going to "attack it" this weekend. How did you fix the lower part if you just went through the boot side? I want to reinforce boots side aswell. But if I don't have to take subframe off that would be nice lol
@@JoshuaDeanHealey you get to the lower part by cutting through the boot floor, you will need to go through two seperate layers before you get to the bracket.Mine had rotted out around the bracket that the subframe bolts into.I removed the bracket, welded up the floor and welded the bracket back on and then welded up the boot floor when i was done.
@@stewartdcampbell I see what you mean! Cool thanks for the reply 🙏👍
I was thinking about doing this, did u put extra metal plates to reinforce just in case?
goeie engels man! nice video
Can you TIG weld these instead of MIG?
If you have the option, cut a groove in the crack, Tig weld and seal. This repair is usually done with Tig so you can put more material in without putting too much heat in the metal.
Dat krikje werkt wel goed!
This can be welding with stick weld?
keep up the good work i like the new style of video you should set up a new channel for working on customers cars get the add rev up
Hey was this e46 an m3?? Or non-m?
Was it a manual or automatic?
yes!
Hey! Waar heb jij die reinforcement platen vandaan? Mijn chassis is nog erger gescheurt als op de video..
Amazon sells the repair kit
second! :D great video, keep it up ;) good content you have there, share that with us
Can a e46 320i broke the chassis
Yes, I have that. Although it's not this bad
@@bladermusics ok, jajaj thanks
all e46 models 316-M3 except convertible
brother please just undo the brake lines and abs sensors and drop the whole assembly its faster and you are not fighting axles and bungieing the world lol
it will crack again...all this frame is a big basic errors of normal conception....
Welding it ain't good?
if it’s reinforced and welded properly it shouldn’t crack again..
Definitely with the type of repair he did here. Wasnt a very thorough repair and reinfocement
First
Terrible design, The car is overweight at closing in on two tons with tin foil thin metal
2 tonnes are you off you fucking rocker geez?
laughable. common fault a frame crack!!!!! a crack in the frame and subframe is unthinkable and shocking to a car to be passed as common and so lightly. i am sure that if there was this dangerous fault in another company you would have barked like mad dogs against it.
man, bmw's are such terrible cars, its never a question of if something in it is broken, its how bad is it
