Hey man, maybe you could do a video on OBD scanners? Like which one do you use and maybe some tips? My friend tried to connect one of his own to my E87, but it did not work. Maybe it was the software fault, i really dont know how these things work...
There is brakefluid dropping from the bleed nipple which means the hose is not connected properly and there is air coming back into the system. You should bleed it again as soon as possible
It’s fine, it’s back pressure from the non return valve, the fluid is under pressure. I’ve been bleeding brakes this way for many years without issue with air in the system
Excellent job Sir 👍
I love the way that I took you just a split second to decide to do the job properly 😎
After seeing how easy it was for you I'll give it a try myself!
👍
Hopefull UA-cam will keep your tutorials online forever. Good job m8
Cheers Axel, thanks for checking out the video man!
great job. I also have a BMW 1 series and your guides are useful to me. Do more of them😎 Greetings from Poland.
Cheers brother, more 1 Series videos in the pipeline 👍
great vid as always, how much brake fluid should you buy, and do you recommend that impact wrench , cheers
Usually take approx. half a litre but allow 1 litre. Yeah the impact wrench is great value
Hey great video, i got just one questions;
What is the spray you use after bleeding the break fluid?
Brake clean
Ok thanks and is that tube/hose you are using to drain the brake fluid into the bottle?

That’s not a bad idea, I’ll write it down!

Hello, how did you rise the car in the front part? Where did you put the red lifter? Mine has the engine plastic shield down.
Check out this previous video I put out on jacking up a 1 series-ua-cam.com/video/dwP5_2XcGGM/v-deo.html 👍
Did you use the BMW DOT4 Low Viscosity brake fluid?
Certainly did, got it from the main dealer 👍
Thats an important detail... if you are working on brakes you must be extra precise. You should have mentioned it
How many pumps do you usually do for each side?
As many as it takes to get the new fluid through, the rear will require a lot more pumps than the front
