DIY: BMW M62 Serpentine Belt & Tensioner Replacement

[@MidwestMotoRider]

Very timely I will have to replace mine next weekend as I noticed this weekend its cracked and a little bit glazed. Great video.

Right on and thank you!

This video is timely. I have a crap idler pulley on my M62B44.

If you're getting them from the dealer, the dealer in Sarnia is significantly cheaper. I ordered the a/c one online, ironically I replaced it in the right time lol.

Good to know. I'll give them a shout for the parts I need to fix my E30 too.

[@4DIYers]

Yeah the dealer is good for a pinch, I try to order from over the boarder, so much cheaper.

[@karmatose]

Need big things. License plate panel and some other junk to install it. Got rear-ended.

[@4DIYers]

Oh wow, I had no idea. Sorry to hear :( Hopefully insurance is covering that one. I know BMW got back into producing parts for their classic models a few years back, so hopefully they have a reproduction panel available.
