Mastering Valve Adjustment on BMW e30 M20
Hello everyone! Welcome to @AutoScholarwithMrB ! Today we are getting the valve adjustment squared away. We replaced the cam and adjusted the valves on installation. After 500 miles we have to adjust them again.
One thing I didn't go over in detail is when turning the engine, only turn in to the right, or clockwise.
BMW states that the adjustment should be done every 15,000 miles
Tools needed are listed in the video.

Is the Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 worth the price?
Переглядів 1,6 тис.2 місяці тому
Hello everyone! Welcome to @AutoScholarwithMrB ! Today I review an exciting, yet expensive head unit that I got for the BMW e30 Touring project. I have been eyeing the Blaupunkt Bremen SQR 46 for a while now and figured it would be the perfect fit for our OEM plus e30 build. While the retro looks of the unit were awesome, I did find some flaws which I go into in the video. I want to make clear ...

Welcome to @AutoScholarwithMrB ! Today we are starting the diagnosis of our e30 project. There is a concerning tick with the top end of our M20 2.5. These old BMWs are famous for making a little noise but this was excessive. Complete diagnosis is going to require pulling the cylinder head and disassembly. I did find the issue and will be posting the video soon so look for it here! It was BAD. #...

I have a link below to the correct pump if...
Window Regulator Replacement for Volkswagen Touareg
Переглядів 4,3 тис.7 місяців тому
Hello everyone and welcome to @AutoScholarwithMrB! Today we are tackling the somewhat involved job of replacing the window regulator in this 2010 Volkswagen Touareg. This video is for the front left but the other regulators work the same and are comparable. VW has had window regulator issues for years, so if yours is broken, it is quite typical. This is not the first time this one was replaced....

Wow you made the best auto how to video I have ever watched. Thank you
Thank you! Brilliant insights! My question is this: I’m super familiar with the Ford hybrid/ PHeV implementation, which uses two electric motors! Their explanations seemed to say that the 2nd smaller motors was for dedicated Regen. Seems inefficient and I didn’t understand why… here you stated that the second smaller electric motor serves as the alternator/ starter (I now get that!) (Q1) Is this also true in the Ford implementation? (2) I just purchased that 2017 Ford Focus EV, all electric. Does the FFE use two electric motors like Ford hybrid solution? Or does it only use one? Thanks!!!
How frequent is the problem?
Hard to say, but seems to show up around 150,000 miles at the earliest.
Mine is reads 0.01v is that ok?
Should be fine
tf are u talking about the sai 300 bucks for my a4
Thank you for making this video !!
None of the videos show torquing the crank bolt. Are they just doing it gutentight or actually doing 190 lbs ft
Lot of good information. Thanks. A little more info on how to remove that wire connector at the coil pack would have been even more helpful.
This has got to be the most f'd up design I have ever seen from vw. What were there engineers smoking when they made this? What happened to designing a car that doesn't require a mechanical engineering degree to work on? This is f'd up vw!!
4:54 disconnect both batteries to do an oil change ?
I don’t want to jinx myself but did my entire repair with this video. Only thing I had to additionally replace was the crankshaft position sensor.. not sure why?? But I’m 70 miles in and running great. Thank you!
Thanks for watching!
I know that is video is pretty old, but I have a question. The 2 red wired on the ignition. You mentioned that you could run a jumper wire and make the starter crank. We'll I took a test light to both of the big red wires and they both have power. Is that supposed to be like that?
Dose the same wiring harness have the trans temperature sensor in it?
Hey guys. Can anyone verify that an android media player will not drain the battery of the car faster in everyday use? Honda Fit/Jazz have notoriously small batteries.
Hands down the best tutorial video I ever seen about this issue with the 1.4 turbo cam chain, I think where I live no one will do this work,they just tell you to drive as long as it last and then they replace the whole engine from some dissembled car.😂
Thank you for your kindness!
Hello Mr.B. Would you be able to do a video on how to replace a secondary air injection pump in a 2018 VW Tiguan, please, and thank you.
this was the most helpful video ive watched in regards to the timing chain alignment on this engine. thank you for taking the time to do this
9:16 noooooo water. Use duster or comp air.
Мне кажется что Тойоте следовало бы начать отзывную кампанию по исправлению данной неисправности ввиду её большой опасности для движения автомобилей, как было сделано с помпой инвертора и валом рулевой колонки, да и что греха таить с фирменными тойотовскими ковриками попадающими под педаль газа.
For that galvanic activity there must be a part of the system acting as a sacraficial anode. The system is rotting?
That video is super long
Completely dropped the ball not showing you removing the a pillar. How do I get this out??
Hello, I have a lexus hs250h 2010 and I have these error codes in ABS. c1259 c1310
I want to repair and can you give me advice?
Help: So I replaced my head gasket myself about 3-4 months ago and when it was time to do an oil change, I noticed an oil leak and almost two quarts missing. I was hoping it was the timing cover because it was only to that side, but to my dread, it does look like it maybe the gasket, but it's hard to tell being so close to where it meets the timing cover. Any advice or tips on how to proceed / what potentially I did wrong? How much time do I have with a slow oil leak potentially from a HG because it might be a while until I can tackle this project again, will driving it and topping off be okay for a bit? Thanks.
The chain tensioner gasket is a problem area for oil leaks on these along with the timing cover. I’ve never seen the head gasket externally leak oil.
is there any way to email a picture to make sure that's what it is? We are praying we don't have to do the head again 😭. Thank you!! We had a trip planned but cancelled due to the oil leak we found. We were so nervous that something was wrong.

Holy Isht!!!! Can I borrow $1000 till the 33rd of Nevuary? I’m good for it. Promise. Tools are expensive!
Thank you for your good information. It would also be good if you made a video indicating the disconnection of the high voltage battery.
Does this automatically clear the maintenance required for cooling parts notice?
Can you drop the link for that Gasket please
Links are in the description
Thank
excellent
You did a terrific job on how to do this. I appreciate it. It wasn’t that bad once I saw you do it.
Glad to be a help, Billy. Thanks for watching!
Great advice, thanks for the video.
What do you do when it says high tank pressure
I got the same machine what does tank pressure means?
Thanks so much. What a cool idea and it worked so much better.
Thorough! I hear caliper piston alignment on the brake pad is a concern when installing new brake pads to avoid uneven wear. How would you recommend that?
does this take a 3/8 or 1/2 in driver/torque wrench?
3/8
My ct200h has been the most expensive and troublesome toyota I've ever owned, between the headgasket failing, and hybrid battery replacement in 6k in the hole. Now the waterpump failure.
Is that lip seal tool really needed?
It helps. Might be able to sneak it in without it
This is a ton of fun, working on my Corvette is like an addiction haha.
Thank you for this video. Followed your directions, and without really rushing I took about 12 hours from start to finish. Cleaning the sealing surfaces was the most annoying part of the job. Thank you again.
Glad to help!
Yes you can buy the seals separately , one per package so get two. I would replace the rubber seals regardless of the condition of the old one, cheap insurance. Make sure to note when you take the old seal off which side goes towards the actuator as the seal actually has one side that is slightly different than the other. Brake cleaner is great stuff but wouldn’t MAF Sensor cleaner be better to use in this case because it doesn’t leave any “ residue “ and you don’t want to chance it with these vital parts.
The Frankfurt is the better option, imho. The LED colour indeed is a bit too weak, especially with sunlight. Sound quality is perfect.
That is what I am hearing as well. I think the Frankfurt would work well in an e36 design wise, but look a little off in an e30. That’s why I went with this one. Definitely having second thoughts about that. Thanks for your comment!
Shit vid
2007 Chevy Avalanche: Had a 134a leak which left me with no refrigerant. Replaced o-rings, valves, etc. Ran a vacuum and it held -30hg for a hour. Began recharging system and couldn't get the system to suck in the 134a from the can. AC LED light in car blinking and won't stay solid green. Relay is good (swapped it with another to test), bypassed relay and clutch engages when jumped. Tried recharging while jumping relay, no success. I tried placing AC can in hot water while charge hose was connected to low-side and still no success. What am I doing wrong or need to do differently? - Thanks! By theway, AC Compressor doesn't make any odd/grinding sounds and the pully operates smooth with no wobble.
I understand the conversion...induction motors, bridge rectifiers, etc. That part I understand. But I'm wondering if the energy goes back into the battery or into a supercapacitor between the controller and the batter....
Did you do any diagnostics on it to confirm it was the pump?
The code being set and the mileage on the original pump was enough to merit replacement in this case.
@@AutoScholarwithMrB right on thanks man. ✌🏾

where does the vacuum line go on the switch over valve ?
Wow !
