Bro, someone is posting spam on here as "Spenser Berke 129k"
Hey, where is this guy located, I want to do this job on my F80
Does anyone have his email ? Spencer’s?
If I get an f80, this guy is doing all of my work. Your mechanic is amazing!!!
Extremely rare to come across such an ETHICAL and professional mechanic who is also a great teacher👍👍👍
The industry needs more of such talented, honest mechanics
Mike is an absolute wizard. The amount of knowledge that he has is insane. I’ll be bringing my F80 to him very soon. Great job documenting the process guys!
Mike is a genius, I would so go to Precision Dynamics if I was still in SoCal!
The hub doesn't spin because the bolt gets loose, it spins because people tune the engine and it applies more torque than designed for. Hardly a genius, in fact dead wrong
This mechanic is brilliant! I wish him much success in his business.
Really glad that you yourself take the time to understand how and why things work in your own car. Many dudes just UA-cam base their knowledge and don’t really know what they’re doing. You are transparent and showing us that you’re willing to learn. Keep up the good content!
This video is priceless. Well done Spencer. Salute to Mike and PD. Appreciate the time they both of you took to put this together 🤙🏽🍻.
Best explanation of the crank hub issue I've seen to date. He is like the "M Whisperer".
I’ve been waiting for this video right when you guys started really talking about it. something about the look in your eye around other F80’s before you got yours. And I’m honestly stoked it’s an instructional DIY!
What a DIY. I learned so much!! An hour well spent. Kudos to you and Mike.
Wow man Mike ROCKS! I wish I had a shop and a mechanic around me like Mike. Great video Spenc.
Incredible and in-depth video man! Learned a lot from Mike 💪🏽🔥💯🙌🏽💯
Top-notch video! I have never finished an one-hour video on UA-cam LOL This is the first one. It is so informative and interesting! Planning to get a f82 in 2 years and definitely going to take it to Precision Dynamics for this job! Nice work dude!
hows your f80 progress
Amazing video once again Spencer!! So detail step by step. Now we know why they charge what they charge. So much work involved .
I love how he explained why you should change out your crank hub. Even, tho I like the fact that he said "I would like you guys to do it to" meaning us the diy guys at home. That guy sounds like me. I hope people understand that he is not trying selling you anything. But, really trying to help you guys.
Love this video. Great info and love how he explained everything. As a tech I learned how not all crank hub are build the same.
This video is greatly appreciated. Especially with the details on the different crankhub designs out there and what could happen if not installed correctly. Wish I was in Cali. Would definitely take my car to Precision for this.
Yeah I wish I had a shop like this near me wow!! That's an incredible job!!!
I like how he explains about the other crank hub designs and who installs it. So now looks like this guy knows his stuff. If I ever decide to get mine done might have to drive to cali
I appreciate you uploading this video. I spun my hub last week after 3 days of uploading a stage one bm3 tune and needed a good in depth diy source for the process. Luckily my car still runs and idles fine but it’s stuck in limp mode. Will be installing the ssr performance keyed hub next weekend.
u ever install itv
Mike has come a long way from when I saw your vids at SSR. The design is very smart.
Just picked up my new 2018 f80 on Saturday and I’m saving already for crank hub job
Thanks for putting together this content! This is an awesome video that you don’t find a lot of for this depth and detail of car work. I’m learning cars more and more and am not looking for timelapse videos with music overlay
Great video. Thank you for taking your time to film this DIY 👍🏽👋🏼
Very informative, thanks for putting this together. I read that cbc should be sufficient to fix the issue because it keeps the bolt from coming out. The only ones who have reported sch with a cbc also money shifted. I’ve been running stg 2 e85 at about 550whp for about 20k miles no issues, planning on just doing the cbc.
I wish we had guys like this in NY. I’m sure they’re here. My mechanics are awesome but they’re real old school. Love the video
Well done video showing the technical aspect of installing your crank hub.
Worth the money your charging and very fair.
Do you know which crank hub with the broken pin was?
lol ive just sepnt 1 hour watching this. an educational video. great job guys!
man I wish there was someone like him here in Ireland. Very honest with his work. mechanics here in Ireland are all cowboys. great job precision dynamics.
Wow insane work and professionalism, take my money now
Much appreciated. Working my ass off to come close to a m3 you getting this car pushed me
Of course, 100% thank you for watching my content!
I have searched a lot, This is the best explanation for why you need to upgrade and how. Great work, appreciated.
Only thing I would love to see the required replacement parts which needs to be purchased beforehand. I live in a place where it is not easy to find m3 parts so I will ship all from US. It would be great to know which part am I going to need like gasgets and etc.
I DIYed mine last week with the SSR Hub. Car runs great. He is right about the 4 pin drilling process . I actually broke the supplied drill bit on the third hole. Carbide bits are strong but more prone to breaking. Ended up having to order new bits and drill that hole 1/32 bigger. If you move your hand the slightest bit while drilling it has a tendency to dig into the template and cause the hole to be slightly off. Luckily my hub went in tight with no trouble. I liked the 2 piece design because it makes it easier to get around the oil pump chain. Honestly would have considered his hub if hadn't already ordered mine. Overall not an easy DIY. You will need s55/n55 timing tools, front seal removers/installers, and a crank hub holding tool, and preferably a digital torque wrench with angle. I ended up dropping subframe on mine. I would not attempt unless you have access to a lift. Also id recommend getting BMW ISTA service guide for a day to guide through process and for proper torque values.
Kudos to you for doing this diy! What motor did you install on and what power level you at? I'm wondering, is the hub more prone to slippage on a 6mt/dct then auto? Seems like a torque converter should help this not to happen. Also wonder if any lower hp cars have ever had this issue.
even attempting to diy this is brave. good luck
Which crankshaft holder did you use?
@@nicholaskerlew6796 if I remember correctly I ended up buying one that was for the n55 (don’t remember if because it was cheaper or I couldn’t find a s55 one) and I drilled it to fit the s55 hub.
@@ichoozjc one year check in and my motor hasn’t blown yet lol. I was stage one bm3 when it spun but oddly I wasn’t pushing the car when it spun. Mine is 6 speed. I think the DCT is more prone to slippage
Just bought one! Looking forward to doing this upgrade! Thanks for taking the time to make this video, very educational! 😎👍🏻
Ps where did you get the head torch from!? 😜👍🏻
Mike has such patience with your total lack of knowledge, "What's TDC" , really?!
Great video thanks to Mike, what a legend!
Bro the video is fire one of the best videos I seen !
When doing my own rod bearings I referenced your video alot. Especially when I was getting conflicting torque specs on the rod bolts. Nice to know where all the hidden bolts and time saving tricks before starting.
Glad it helped!!
@@SpencerBerke what’s the cost to get something like this done thanks 2020 m4
@@megadealinvestment8784 i think ive heard around 3-4k
I was waiting for this video for quite sometimes.. thanks bro
Hopefully I’ll be able to get a F80/F82 soon. I’ll definitely be going to these guys for all my upgrades 👍🏼
Great knowledge thank you Spencer! 🔥🔥
Of course, thanks for taking the time to watch!
They do nice work & he's a smart kid.....👍🏁
Haha never seen the old, screwdriver on the piston trick on camera before 👍🏿. Great video.
Design looks great. Thanks for taking the time to film this. It's weird that BMW didn't use a woodruff key from the factory with the gears fixed. It's exactly what they were designed for 135 years ago.
Great video guys!!
Welp Spencer has sold me to take a trip down south and get mine done at precision lol. I trust Mike to do the job with all his knowledge and expertise.
Me: Oh look, a crank hub DIY, I’ll save 3k
Mike: summarizes the process
Me: 3k doesn’t sound so bad
I was thinking the same thing! I'll gladly pay that vs doing all that myself!
Agreed. I’d probably break something or forget/lose some bolts and my car won’t start lol
Looks quite simple. Might try it this weekend
🤣🤣🤣
That man is phenomenal
Awesome video man ... I want to get an F80 and seriously considering shipping my car to Precision to get this done
I appreciate you taking the time to watch it!
Amazing vid. My M2C is in next month for this. Xmas bonus well spent!
This guy is a BMW guru. I wanna take my E60 M5 back to cali and get my rod bearings done lol
Nobody wants to work on that monstrosity
@@frontspring1 Lmao
He makes this looks super easy
Wow I learned about the f80 , a car that I want in the future and this video is perfect 👍🏽
Awesome video guys!!
Excellent video by the way
Can’t wait to try and do a crankhub replacement myself when I get a car with a S55!!
Good luck! Hopefully this video has helped!
Are you doing a stage 3? And are you tracking the car?
Very insightful, thanks for this 👍🏻
Think of moving to the US just to have this guy as my mechanic
Mike is the best there is hands down
Im getting it done as soon as i can and a bootmod3 at the same time hopefully
Great stuff guys can you post your new crank hub to Australia with instructions? Etc cheers Mark
Mike, is one rad dude.
Excellent DIY
I like this!
Thank you!
Man if you was in the Uk I’d get it done fast man sick engneering
Lychhfield in uk siiiiiiiiiiick
Dude knows his stuff!
Proper video!
Super informative video.
Hope you doing good Spence! Im sure youre working on banger videos.
those a torque wrenches with degree measures are badass
I watched this video from cover to cover and man is this a gem! However, I am still shipping my future F8X to Precision Dynamics for this job! Nice work fellas 👍🏽💯
Great video - very informative! The shop owner is legit, an honest, transparent and knowledgeable guy! Curious, I had a hub spin, replaced right around the time of this video. Right at that time, BMW had a replacement friction disc that is diamond coated. I'm ~680-700 wheel (ps2+s, custom e85, etc.) and no issue since this oem disc replacement with the diamond coated one...
Few questions:
1. agree it is from the bolt backing out, if that is the direct culprit, can it / wouldn't it be applicable to ensure that bolt is at the proper tq spec upon "vehicle check" or other major inspections.
2. has he seen any improvements from the oe replacement part (I can find the part # if needed)
3. any failures to date from the upgraded precision crank hub?
Thank you for the info!!
Awesome 🤩
I've owned 2 European mechanic shops before..from my understanding the right way to do this is to pull the engine out ,pull the crankshaft pully install the new Hub...this is a mess with shaved metals from drilling.. possible crooked drilling..top of the engine taken apart etc etc.... From Experience Mike is one of the Best Mechanics I've ever seen. Bmw should be sued to fix this problem free..just like the e90 rod bearing issues.
I going to remove the oil pan and weld it
Well explained he nailed it I have a pinned crank hub on my N54 335i dam germans.... I installed it my self engine out the car its not for low level mechanics...
Which pinned hub did you get? I’m really thinking of buying and installing the newer PPI one piece two pin hub for my N54 6MT 535i xDrive..
Damn that's a nice guide!, thanks !
Many shops in the uk now drop the sump due to Swarf from the drilling entering the sump.
I saw a company..MMR i think who made a one pc crank hub along with a bolt capture solution..I think if it is properly torqued and installed then it would be perfect solution because there is no way that the crank hub can spin..
I’am not bashing anyone’s solution and I have learnt a lot from this video but drilling the crank is not for me but I have learnt more in this video than I can mention..👊👊👊
Drilling the crank is risky, those pins will eventually strain under whiplash..
I think the single pc crank hub with capture from MMR is better although I will probably use this technique to install….
When you were drilling the crank what precautions did you use to stop swarf dropping down into the oil sump or have you removed that too along with the subframe , steering rack etc ????
Spencer did they use a handheld crank hub holder while you were attempting to losses the crankhub bolt?
Free game, appreciate the knowledge
Very well explain
Ready for track 😎🚘💨💨💨
Yessss
There is a no-drilling version out now from some tuners. What do you think about it?
Bro, hope all is well. It's been a while and I know you're probably just hustling and working but I hope all is well. Cant wait to see what you've been working on in the next video.
Great video bro !!!
Why not use a tested and known working design like a 2pin or 4pin Crank Hub that have been used for years ?
Why use something new that has not been out in the field very long ?
Doesn’t that new design throw the balance of the Crank Hub off since it has more material (key way) in that one section ?
He explained it here:
37:30 Mike's crank hub design
For me, It really seems like the best design. (I have had my share of not perfectly straight drill holes)
And the balance is not thrown off, since there is material on the CH itself, that rebalances things.
Problem is not their design. Problem is finding a mechanic that you can entrust to drill into a crankshaft. Drilling a crankshaft is a very delicate job. Some people even had their crankshaft crack. If you live in some poorer part of the world those guys don't even get to work on S55 often.
They fixed the issue on the S58 despite never acknowledging it on the S55 😡
But how many crank hubs have been updated like this, there is probably 100,000 S55 cars out there or more.
@@jostrander71 i spun mine and thought the same ! 10000km car with stage 1 installed at 9000km! Trust me that problem is real
Big corporations never admit flaws or failures. Samsung, Apple, Microsoft, they all do the same shit. BMW to keep their loyal fan base fixed it because they know most BMW drivers drive their car hard…
@@yg78t76t7that couldn't be a more true statement.
Damn with the amount of work that goes into changing out the crank hub, you might as well buy your upgrades and do it all at the same time.
How this dude just go from having his whole business run on social media to Stop posting on every social media platform? I guess that’s how you know some crazy shit happened.
Hope whatever you going through you get through it
Wym?

Getting my 2018 F80 Comp 6MT CrankHub done next week. The car has 82k miles on it but I need that piece of mind 😅. Also going FBO with MHD stage 2+ on 93 Oct only.
Is there a way to see if the crank hub job has been done without digging too deep into disassembly?
Can that main bolt be tightened up at regular intervals to prevent a spin?
Hello guys
Could you tell me what type of drill did you use for that?
Best regards and nice job :)
Hey man that’s a good video I have just one ? How much did you pay in total for everything they did on the car ?
What brand is that head work light he’s wearing??
So did the N55 get the same factory 3 piece bolt, or was it just the S55?
TDC at compression or exhaust stroke? Make sure the q-barcodes on the cams are facing up for compression stroke.
Camshafts not aligning because the vanos gears still have oil pressure? I do believe, if oil pressure is relieved, they should always align.
My 2011 335i I just bought has a precision dynamics license plate frame.
One of the pulleys squeak now sadly. Not sure which one
do you know of any shops in the orlando florida area that does this?
I would increase the rads as much as possible on that key feature. I agree one piece hub is the way to go.
