I recently bought a basket case of an 335i E93 with the N54. It was running with 137,000 on it. Transmission is good too. Although there’s a seal above the valve body that will make you think you need a transmission. Including a CEL and limp mode. Good video. I actually turned on notifications so I can follow content on this car.
Super excited for this build. So many of these fall into poor ownership and need a lot of love. Looks like you have a lot of the building blocks to bring it back around. The interior is mint! Maybe you can find someone who can help you out with body work on these projects. Def a car on my bucket list!
I’ve had two SRT Challengers one was a 6 manual speed. and a C-5 Corvette 6 speed manual with Z-51 package. This N54 is faster than all except maybe the manual Challenger maybe. This car has been an act of love although I knew it would be. I absolutely love this car.
No way do you really?! Cash is tight so im hesitant to make the purchase. I would absolutely cover shipping plus some beer money if youre interested? if so email me at dayoffdiy@gmail.com and we can talk more. thanks ryan!
SIR! You're sincerely awesome! I mean that!! Your heart is not hardened like so many in this modern clown show we now live in. Thank you! and please don't let it get tainted as people do you wrong and hurt and lie to you. I know you've served our country and I couldn't be more proud of you as a fellow human and man! ANYWAY......lol. Now to talk about myself in relation to your car/project. So this car really reminds me of when I bought my 2008 335XI for $1500. It was not running and was sitting for a year before I bought it. I towed it home and started doing all maintenance and repairs. I found the high pressure Fuel Pump was shot as well as the right front wheel bearing and a few other things like the turbos were leaking lots of oil. The mileage was 288,000 Miles when I got it and some things had been replaced but a lot was not done. I maxed out my credit cards and started replacing plugs coils valve cover gaskets Water pump ALL the sensors (got a couple of bum steers on those lol. Then the Turbos (VIV V3 TD04 17T's)They've been holding strong for coming up two years of hard driving but not a lot of miles maybe 10,000 at most so far. I had to go cheapest route and after watching enough "Zero to 60" channel and then the older "Swap Depot" videos I was convinced that ebay turbos are now worth the smaller cost. LOL. Oh and and inlets upgraded the low pressure fuel pump as well MHD tuner and XHP trans tuner app and XDelete so I can run the car as a rear wheel drive only. (It's an awesome group of apps). As well I bought the app "Protool" which has totally replaced my INPA and ISTA etc. I got a custom tune and running E40 (out of E85 fuel) and it's SO MUCH FUN!!! However there is no such thing as a finished E90 335i or 135i or Z4 35i or 335IS, IX etc. LOL. But MAN does it RIP!!
Holy cow Greg that’s a properly built car! You’ve been through that thing. X delete is awesome too. I need to look into protool, I’m kinda tired of problems with ISTA connecting. Id like to know more about it! If you have some valuable knowledge on protool id love to hear it, you could shoot me an email if you’d like! Dayoffdiy@gmail I’m hoping to get this thing dialed in, thinking I might pull the engine to make life easy… Talk soon!
I’m so hyped for this build! Alec is gonna do his thing and just keep continuing to provide results!! We all know N54’s are not for the faint of heart!
I had an N54 in my 135i the first year the 1-series came to the US. It had constant problems and was at the dealer frequently, under warranty thankfully. Only car to ever leave me stranded on the side of the road. I can't even imagine how much work and money it takes to keep the N54's running smoothly these days. There's a reason you don't see N54 Bimmers on the road much.
Excited for this series. Love a turbo car, always adds a ton of difficulty to the mix lol but you get a sweet ride out of it if you can nail it. I just bought my first project car too and man, it’s going to cost a ton but I’m loving it so far!
Everyone like and comment, show the support as this will be a sick rebuild. A lot of work to do but we know he can bring it all back to life. Looking forward to all episode drops 😎😎
Alec - I am so excited for this one! I want you to get started asap! I would love to see you get it back to OE spec then go further. Those aftermarket turbos should get you over 500whp with full bolt-ons and a custom MHD map. I have an e93 n54 335i and adding decat downpipes, uprated intercooler and chargepipe with an mhd stage 2+ map got me 420 flywheel hp.
I bought a 2009 e93 335i last October, front end collision pops the driver's airbags, and bent the front rails a bit. I have done the oil pan gasket, airbags and etc., now I am stuck at the front rail repair, need some frame machine to pull the upbent rail downward... I will wait and see how you restore your 335i. :) great stuff.
That unknown sensor is the low pressure fuel system sensor located in line before the HPFP under the intake mani like u said :)) I know u wouldn’t figured that out anyways tho. So excited for the project let’s gooooo!!
I made my own kit as well on the cheap cheap. Princess Auto (Canadian Harbor Freight) blaster and some 3D printed parts. Cost me like 65 bucks. Can't wait to watch the journey!
Have you ever tried to bring engine up to temp on highway speed then spray water into intake while revving engine up, use a spray bottle I have seen it steam blast off carbon intake and cylinders pistons.
Back at it broooo! 💪🏽 Can you put "Part-1" or something like that in the title for the videos? Just to make it easier for the viewer to know which video series goes with which! Love the channel!
Hey buddy great content. Better and batter! I would drop the oil pan before firing up the engine to make sure there are no metal shavings. Be careful with failed turbos. Looking forward watching the next video! ❤
Wow. With all the work on that engine to do. I’d drop it and make it mint and then slot it back in. Especially easier for turbo removal and install. Being able to complete the engine and then back in the car would make it much easier
Are you going to address the dents & replace the wheel? Reckon you could do a great job with a rattle can. Great videos, really enjoy the varied content
Really happy to see a 335i! I’m in the uk and I’ve almost finished a complete mechanical front to rear restoration on an e91 335i msport. It brought back a lot of memories of my own work seeing this. You have likely only scratched the surface of this cars issues though I reckon, it seems a bit of an amateur’s project in the past and you’re going to be rectifying ‘repairs’. As a side note I would inspect the con rod bearings, they are not known to spin them as you mentioned, however my car was at 160k miles and the bearings were worn enough to justify replacing along with timing chains, especially the oil pump timing chain unit, if a chain does go then it’s the oil pump chain unit that will. Love the fact you are an OEM bmw guy, I’m exactly the same. By the way are the injectors that have been replaced genuine BMW/VDO index 12s? In the uk you’re looking at £400+ per injector! Keep up the good work you’re channel is brilliant and you’re a great bloke 👍🏼
I’ll have to look into the injectors when I get home. Yeah I will absolutely cut the filter open and inspect things. I’ll have the oil pan off, maybe we will get into the rod bearings but I’m going to see how she runs first and do a thorough inspection of the filter. N54s can be A LOT of work but I’m up for the challenge. Might even just pull the motor to make life easy! Cheers
@@DayOffDIY yeah that’d be really nice. They are a fantastic engine, love them. At the age and mileages they’re at now it’s costly to get them back to good health. Really looking forward to watching along as you get stuck in.
This is gonna be great to watch! You’ve got your work cut out for you for sure! Just a thought…..I KNOW you’re an OEM purest but have you thought about reaching out for some aftermarket sponsors! You mentioned the headlights….my E60 had some killer aftermarket headlights from Bavgruppe and I would think they’d be more than willing to send you a pair for this restoration (saving you a ton of money)!
Love your videos, you got a new sub. Too bad I didn't see the giveaway until way after, but I thoroughly enjoyed watching the resto/repair vids and the OC one. Keep it up.
The carbon build up is not the back-feed out of the combustion chamber, it is the PCV combined with EGR system. If it was carbon buildup caused by back-feed, then you'd have to experience backfiring. Reason it can't back-feed is because of the pressure produced by turbocharger. Or I am just not educated enough on petrol engines, I don't entirely understand what is going on these petrol engines, only experienced with diesel powered cars.
I think if it were PCV related we would see it on the N52, M54, 52 etc… but it’s only on this engine really… I’m not positive though so if someone could educate me I’m all ears! This is my personal conclusion I came to
Mmm… you could stick a boroscope down the spark plug hole and see if you can see any dripping oil from the intake or exhaust valves, do a leak down test to determine top or bottom end, but m54s usually need the heads gone through around 200-250k. I’d just pull the heads, send them out, new head gasket and give it a second chance
Day off DIY a legend i have an n54 335i how much you charge me to replace my oil filter housing gasket? Im also in northern cali, i have the mahle gasket on hand
Working on getting a 2008 328i coupe crank but no start, front positive jump conector melted the plastic housing and burned through a wire in the harness I fixed that but it still says I have no signal to all the injectors. Also swapped out fuel pump and the module.Tested each injector and they are all good any recommendations?
@@DayOffDIY I'm looking at doing one of my motorbike wheels with Janolite, industrial strength spray can here in UK but obviously there's sand blasting, I've done my GSXR rim edges with 320 to take the paint surface off pretty quick however
Keep that OE spirit coming! Everybody own choice and taste, but double sided tape for a lip on the trunk and those stickers? Come on, bmw made a decent car back then, no need to do this to it ......
Hey, I would really like to join the discord. however every time I go to accept the invite. it tells me I'm unable to accept the invite? could I some help? please and thank you
I'll really try not to keep butting in on the comments and trying to help all the time. I tend to get all Fatherly over the N54's when someone I really like is doing a project LOL. Not only that I'm sure you know most everything about them and don't need the peanut gallery to shut from the stands at ya LOL. You WILL have to replace that charge pipe not matter what. It WILL either crack in a big way or completely explode one day. Even on OEM everything. Go onto the cheapest store and get their least expensive Aluminum (Steel?) one. With a fake TIAL Blow off vale. Or retain the original plastic ones. But they're kind of poopy. LOL. OKAY I'm shutting up now!
Your comments are always welcome Greg! Thanks for the input. I think you’re right, those charge pipes are a garbage design… I’ll no doubt look into it Also! Your a member! Appreciate it a lot friend
Man you gotta love Sage - Best puppy ever
ANY car with the "Sports mind powered by" stickers is 100% sketch and unmainted. i guarantee it lol
we will get her sorted out proper :)
Looking forward to this restoration process!!😃🙏🏽
You and me both!
I recently bought a basket case of an 335i E93 with the N54. It was running with 137,000 on it. Transmission is good too. Although there’s a seal above the valve body that will make you think you need a transmission. Including a CEL and limp mode. Good video. I actually turned on notifications so I can follow content on this car.
That N54 is going to be better than stock when it is completed.
I hope so!!!
I guess Sage was the #1 interested in the newcomer garage tennant 😆
I love your inspector dog , when you said something, the dog was sniffing around and agreeing.
She’s the best! I can’t wait to get home to see her!!! About to board my plane

been doing some reaching out to brands recently, need to step my game up!
I have the same exact car, and same color(Sparkling graphite a22), but a 325i. Love the car so much , design beautiful and color too👍🏻
That’s awesome! We’re going to properly go through this thing

Will look forward for the updates on this car.

Quick tip is to look close at the length of front springs when ordering new ones. I ordered too long ones so had to do the job twice

You take the sticker off the door handle it will no longer be a performance door handle
I'll really try not to keep butting in on the comments and trying to help all the time. I tend to get all Fatherly over the N54's when someone I really like is doing a project LOL. Not only that I'm sure you know most everything about them and don't need the peanut gallery to shut from the stands at ya LOL. You WILL have to replace that charge pipe not matter what. It WILL either crack in a big way or completely explode one day. Even on OEM everything. Go onto the cheapest store and get their least expensive Aluminum (Steel?) one. With a fake TIAL Blow off vale. Or retain the original plastic ones. But they're kind of poopy. LOL. OKAY I'm shutting up now!
Your comments are always welcome Greg! Thanks for the input. I think you’re right, those charge pipes are a garbage design… I’ll no doubt look into it
Also! Your a member! Appreciate it a lot friend
That car is not even worth fixing if u ask me
