Nice to see Hoovie and the Wizard let you guys out for a playdate.

Grimes is a great mechanic. You're lucky to have him as a friend.

Glad “Grimes” gets to be Tyler again. Also, great music choice. Sounds like montage music from a great 80’s film such as “Real Genius.” 🤭

Every E39 owner is thinking... You only had to replace 18 things to get it running well?! You're winning.

Posting a video 2 day in a row?! Yes, please!

Great to see you and Tyler working on cars again.

I like seeing the change of seasons ,because tthe reality is that it takes a while to work on a project because life will get in the way. Glad to see the 2 videos out. Best of luck to Tyler on his new job and I am looking forward to vkogs on his 79 F150.

Wow. Someone waited an entire season to post this video. You filmed in winter and posted in summer. Lmao!

Those are some heavy coats for a July video during a heat wave.

Yes!!! Been waiting for an update on this project!

Congratulations to Tyler on his new job. My god that engine oil was disgusting I have seen 4 year old 50,000 oil looking better than that. Brake fluid screwing the front brakes unreal, I had the same thing a broken bleed nipple corroded and the extractor snapped.

that's how the cheapest example of desirable german car usually are but if you can't afford a nice one and spread the repairs out over time it's a way in to owning one

Your videos are some of the better ones on KZfaq. Thanks for making them... ps. I noticed you were silent for a while.

7:07 a year doesn’t sound like a short time to me if they are worn a fair amount or get a lot of miles on them. I do a decent amount of walking, running, and working out and my running shoes seemed only last maybe six months.

You can clean suede with a bronze/brass metal brush, FYI.

If you were going for 80's movie montage music, you NAILED it sir

Geez great to see the Ducati is still going

Jake and Tyler are back in the garage working on BMWs. How cool is that. Cheers!! 😎

Fun video. Like the fact it has been mad, mostly, mechanically right, and still looks beat on the outside. Good sleeper.

The car struggles. I know how it feels unfortunately. My 2010 Camaro needs all the love all the time. Great video!

The 80's/90's background music is slapping during this video.

This only reinforces my good decision making in every bmw project I have walked away from

Really love to see Jake and Grimes together, much better than the Wizard and Hoovie, although I love them too.

Loving the 80's style montage.

Red Wing Shoes. Best work shoes that FIT. Not just “comfy”.

Hope you sell it. Had a manual E39 528 in 2005 and it was one of the best cars I’ve ever driven!

the power steering pump on that Ranger sounds like it's Ford - you should swap it out with the one out of an F150 because they're louder 😂

I really hope Grimes's new place let's him do after hours repairs on your cars. A lift is a luxury you don't want to loose! Otherwise, it's back to back stands and rolling around on your back! 😂

y'all could totally take over for Freiburger and Dulcich/Finnegan on RoadKill on MotorTrend

When extracting a broken brake bleeder screw, drill the hole out as much as possible without getting into the threads and use the largest extractor bit you can, AFTER using a torch to heat the screw red hot.

FINALLY been waiting for this one

Gotta watch Jake's videos to get our fill of Grimes these days.

Sreten from M539 Restorations would definitely be having a field day right now if he saw a Meyle box in that parts layout. lol he does not like those at all.

So, BMW doesn't have the builder sign their M engines like AMG used to? It would be nice because then you'd be able to send a stern e-mail to 'Gunther'. Also - digging the '80s soundtrack on this video.

Wow another great VIDEO Thanks Jake

Omg 98percent Jake two days In a row I can’t contain myself ❤

*Failing Shoes* ... Here in Europe we have a 24 month statutory warranty on nearly everything. If your shoes for example fell apart here, you'd get a repair, replacement, or your money back. Everybody knows about it and uses it.

It always amazes me the temperature difference between north and south Kansas it's 100 here yet they got ice? 🤯

Amazing audio track selection. So refreshing to se YT car focused channels that don’t pump the ghetto rap.

I love your videos!

Iv been waiting for this

With all of the generic 80s music, I feel like I watched a 80s teen movie where Jake has to get his car ready for a race against the popular, rich bully to win the attention of the hot girl in school. Where's John Cusack?

And I thought my garage was a mess.

@19:30 is why I just do the oil change from the top w/ the siphon. Set it and forget it haha. So many parallels between my touring and yours, but I didn't get to document a lot of it because of the timeframe.

Do you still have access to wizard's shop now that Tyler is gone?

Jaguar Xj cars up to the X350 (~2003 i think...) used ball valve a/c ports. I found out when I attempted to charge the a/c and R134a shot out the high side service port! Fun!

Dude, my M62 in my 00 740 also sounds like a damn tractor. I think these engines are just noisy af. And yes I resealed the VANOS, check valves etc.

The big question is, will Jake be getting a kitten?

Car ninja would be proud

Re: work shoes, get a set of Redbacks. Not cheap, not made in China, great if you are on your feet all day on hard surfaces.

If you think that old BMW was bad, try buying a new newer one … with even more electronics that would not survive and engine bearings that fail under 100k miles! My 1995 325i will be my last, and newest, BMW.

Dude what's the commercial break for tennis shoes ? Are you lactating ? And how did you get Grimes ? He is like the Top Gun mechanic ?

The leather seats look super comfortable

Need i3 content now! GL on the house repairs. Maybe you can borrow some money from Hoovie...oh wait.

All black Nike Air Monarch IV ftw. Kind of speedy but last pretty good.

Neat to see the two of you wrenching again. You have been missed. Suggestion for shoes. Reebok makes a very comfortable leather shoe in black. I have a pair. Sketchers also makes black leather with the safety sole certified for restaurant use. The Sketchers are about $90CDN, the Reebok about $125CDN. Both are under $100 in American money. $2,000 for single piston calipers? Who's kidding whom? On my old Volvo 240 I had a shop do both front calipers (4 piston Gerling), both rear calipers (2 piston Gerling), all 4 discs, semiceramic pads all the way around, new parking brake shoes and hardware, and flush the brake lines (17 quarts of brake fluid). Parts, labour, and taxes in the total came to $1,700CDN. Im waiting on shoulder replacement surgery so doing work on a car is impossible for me.

You can get Adidas Stan Smiths in all black, but if you go out in public in them, there’s a chance that people will spontaneously begin chanting “REF, YOU SUCK! REF, YOU SUCK!”

Let’s go 100 % Jake 🎉🎉🎉

Very nice!

@22:22, Mein Gott. That's the swamp monster from Stephen King's "The Raft."

That roof would be better on the shop if it was higher none the less good space to work in the cold

Could m539restorations turn it into “Project Wichita”?

Dude! why didn't you clean the matting surface for that bolt before installing it? It'll just fail again now...

that would be a great project car..only problem with OE parts, if not made in Germany or Europe, is that they will need to be replaced again in a short amount of time. Especially the electronic parts and suspension parts. I wish I could get it.

You guys have a different car standard. I need some cosmetic work.

new balance screed!

Good to see that BMW were testing and perfecting crappy crumbly plastics on places like the underside of the car before introducing them in production to critical engine peripherals….. gotta love those Germans…..

Enjoyed the video

5:37 OSHA REGULATIONS do not pertain to homeowners or people working on private property just a FYI

While you were playing vehicle Tetris I was having sads for the Miata. Wish I had money so I could attempt to talk you out of it to help with your house repairs.

Passenger side cabin filter elbow doesnt look like it is clipped in on the bottom.

"100 Percent Jake is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you'll get" - Forrest Gump......😁 Bolt in the oil pan. Go figure....

Oh. I was going to say the old white BMW looked like your best vehicle, get rid of the others...but it makes sense that I would be attracted the "garbage pile" 🤙

FYI you should be replacing you shoes every 6 months if you on your feet a lot. Your back and knees will appreciate it in your 40"S

Great music. Great content. Keep the adventure alive but return to BMWs when cash is more plentiful. Snag a Corolla XRS or an Intrigue with the LX5 - content + cheap parts + quirky. Cheers from Canada.

What part of the world is that? Looks very cold with those heavy jackets.

Hey awesome vid! But what die you use in the ultra soon to clean the calipers?! And for how long? And what temp? Wanna do mine but i am scared to throw them in

No leaves on the trees. I'm guessing this is not July.

Is that an Aprilia Pegaso in the background??

Shoe issue…buy some crocs….they are comfortable and the clean up easily!

Black steel toe sneakers from Temu or Amazon. 😅

Go go Power Ranger

Leave it with open ITBs and a foam filter😂😂😂

Do you have some dead leds in the dash?

Not big on bmw = but cool video

👍 PERCEPTIVE,100PercentJake SHREWD,TYLER >>>>Thank you From Nick Ayivor from London England UK 🇬🇧 ⏰️ 23:37PM Good Evening

Redwing ..shoes ...last

Is this Grimes new jerb?

Offer your M5 to Sreten, maybe he would buy it

Paid $4000. Dumped $8000 into repairs. Still broken. Still worth less then $4000. The only value these cheap old BMWs have is KZfaq content.

um that is was you get when you buy a BMW, the finest German engineering that breaks constantly.

Rockport shoes.

Great project-sell something else :)

Ye sab kabadi hain.

i can go $5k and a r53 for the m5.

Why do you say " it needs moved" instead of it needs to be moved? Just trying to be cool? You said it's generally good for high amperage stuff (TO BE) wet, right? Seems like you, Jr, Tyler and wizard needs teached English. 😂😂😂😂 Stop trying to be cool.....

Regarding the comment you made on Threads after Joe Biden dropped out: first it was unexpectedly ignorant coming from a smart guy, such as yourself. Second, you do realize you’re well on your way to be coming an old person yourself, don’t you?

how long ago was this video made? You are wearing jackets and can see your breath and talking about everything has ice on it

New Balance rant?!? Okay, boomer.

Dude Tyler has bad cars but you raised the bar to a new level.....Sell everything....You will never fix any of it up....At this point you are a hoarder........
