M539 Restorations will be proud

A 40 minute Memphis video? On the E28 of all cars? I'm so in! This is going to be epic!

Congrats to the 100k subs. You are so worth it. No nonsense, no bs, just fixing cars giving us very good advice how to do it ourselves. Love it! Cheers mate. 😁🍻👌

Beautiful. Makes me miss my E28s... I had an '85 and '87 535i..

After finishing the entire episode I've just gotta say, this was absolutely incredible! Not long to go until the E28 is complete and on the road, the transformation is just fantastic!

Gotta love clean engine bays

That looks great mate! Those old girls are so much easier to work on than modern stuff! And the E28 is a lovely car.

Wow, what a transformation. Honestly Memphis, I think you’re some kind of genius. Your knowledge, skill, patience, sense of humour and command of the English language is extraordinary. I’m not sure you’re all that great at making soup though 😉. Great video, as always 👏👏👏

I am impressed by your work, you and M539 Restorations are really interesting to follow even if BMW is not my favorite brand but you show that you get far if you dare to try. Congratulations to 100k followers.

well done on 100k subscribers great cleaning video

Well done dude, 100K well deserved! 💯😎

Sreten from M539restorations would be proud of you! Great job and what a beauty your e28 is!

Love that you also watch M539 Restoration

I guess you have watched Sretens channel (M539Restorations) and his awesome (read ocd) blasting of motor parts? Keep up this good channel!!! Greetings from Stockholm Sweden.

Dear Memphis, you stumbbled upon, the Mecca, of BMW Restoration channel, M539 Restoration, Sreten is very good at doing what he does best, you are not far from him either, you did a very great job restoring this classic to its original state, I really hope that this summer, you will enjoy this car and be proud of the work, effort, stress, money and dedication you put all togheter in this project, I am 100% sure that you have enjoyed doing this, and therefore, you deserve this car to be your Icon, along with the Golf and all your other projects, wish you luck and keep doing what you do the best! You are the best! 🙏

Getting a hint of M539 Restorations and i love it!!

Mate, by far the best engine bay and engine clean up video I have ever seen. Your attention to details goes above and beyond. Thanks for sharing the details!

A video which was well worth waiting for, great turnaround on your engine bay Memphis.

ive been waitinnggg for some more E28 content, im currently trying to restore my dads old Euro 1983 528i and these videos are helping a lot!

A great video. It must be super satisfying to see the clean engine bay after the tear down. Cool shout out to M539.....he is also awesome :-)

This BMW is really coming. Great work.

Great to see a new video from you, Memphis. They are always a real treat. The BMW is my second favourite of your cars. Greta the diesel Volvo 240 Estate sealed the deal for me. My own daily driver, regardless of weather, is the 1990 Volvo 240DL Estate that Ma bought new for her 60th birthday.

You did it! 100K! Congratulations! Great videos. Fantastic channel.

Hi from uk👋👍 great job on e28 so much love and respect for your motors that you save and proud to follow you man 👍 you did really great job here my friend well done👌 thank you for your time and be safe see you soon 👍👋

Memphis i have seen a E21 316 on the ring of Antwerp. What a head turner. I was instantly thinking of your channel.

That’s what I call a “mint” engine bay … a lot of work for sure but it really payed off 👍😀👏🏻👏🏻

Honestly, I was just expecting a bit of soapy water, some cleaning solutions, and a brush and hose. WOW, did you get into it!! That makes me want to go and do the same for my A4 and Q7, like right now! A clean engine is a happy engine - and that was a great show of maintenance/upkeep and deep clean at the same time. Thanks!

Always a good day when you upload! Been around since 20k subscribers, and you still deserve a lot more :) One of the best automotive content along with M539 !

awesome video as always, the car is really coming together, e28s are so cool, a real usable classic! congrats on 100k!!

Nice work my friend, you should be proud of yourself and the car aswell. Can't wait for the next episode

Well... You've reached 100k now! Congrats! Well deserved! :)

🎉congrats to 💯k !!! great results with the vapor Blaster. You choosed the best method! greetings from Austria.

I keep coming back to this Video... one of the most visually Awesome transformations you ever pulled off. Officially Jelly. well done, Sir, well done.

Memphis, dude, awesome video, so gratifying, what a transformation. Very much worth the wait. Maybe I’m not the norm, but I think waiting for the next video adds to the excitement of what’s coming. If people gripe about not having content delivered every week, then that’s their problem, maybe the should try to even do the projects you do without recording video. They likely have no idea how hard it is to both work a project like this AND record it in a comprehensive manner. “Good stuff Maynard!” You and Ronald Finger always deliver great videos, and because I have to wait a while for one to pop up, it makes me so happy to see it. So don’t worry about apologizing for taking time to upload something, because it is always awesome when you do. Let’s hear the before and after of that idle air control valve when it comes in. That will be cool, too. Also, only because I’m so partial to the MK1 Golf, take her to a Car & Coffee kind of thing and show her in the mix. That might help you over the 100k subs. You could also try some collab with Ratarossa, if the UK isn’t too far a trek for you. Cheers mate!

congrats on 100k!! Keep up the awesome work up!

I replaced my intake manifold on my M20b20 today too, I have an early E30 with the same engine and I've been having idle issues too. Took me almost a year to find another additional air slide valve which ended up costing me a whole engine to get. I tried everything to unblock it and the best thing I did was put it in the oven a few times at a high temperature and then let it sit. The inside blockage turned to powder and I was able to knock it out. Great video really enjoyed watching it even though I've done the same thing to my car lol 🤘

Always improving yourself, keep going.

"Cleanup on isle 5 please" had me on the floor 🤣🤣🤣

Well done Memphis that looks absolutely AS NEW. So pleased for your 100k subscribers as well you're doing a thoroughly professional, educational and witty job. 👍👍

my goodness, the results from the aqua blasting are amazing!

Great video, very rewarding to watch the cosmetic and technical improvements progressing.

Congrats to 100k. Your skills and craftmanship are impressive. That engine bay looked flawless.

Super job. I did a similar process on my Mercedes 190e but admittedly not as comprehensive. It just makes the engine bay so much nicer to work on. Well done. BTW I would be very happy if the new project was a Mercedes 190 😉

Big fan. Awesome video mate and congrats on the 100k. Fan, Sydney Australia. 💚

Some really pleasing and impressive results after cleaning up those engine bits! Nice work. Also had a good chuckle along the way with your jokes too 😝

simply wonderful restoration of a gorgous car....you should be extremley proud! good job :)

Amazing, looks brand new. Congrats on 100k.

Great video Memphis! Looking forward to the 100k video.

Great video Memphis, I really enjoyed this long video, I'm already looking forward to the 100k special.....thanks, you are 1 of the best car channels on KZfaq imo....👍👍👍

Amazing job !!! You absolutely deserve your 100k subscribers !!!

I liked that this was a Sreten video format. Liked very much

Great job on that engine Memphis looks stunning! regards from England and keep on keeping on with the videos 👍

Brilliant video, really enjoyable to watch you work your way around the little problems, keep em coming

Congrats on 100K! the engine bay is looking nice and clean, great work.

The attention to detail here is next level stuff! Awesome job, man! 👌🏻👍🏻

Great Video.. luv watching the videos on the E28 .. reminds me of my old E28 .. same color too... never should have sold it ... 2 things 1 - the original stamped steel camshaft sprocket is a know defect and tends to crush and send the engine out of time ... it has been repalced by an upgraded cast metal one by BMW and a good thing to change to avoid a costly head / valve job... don't ask me how I know ;-) 2 - Nice to see you improvised a fan removal / installation tool similar to the one BMW sells .... the BMW one is quite expensive... another option is to put an appropriately sized pin in the hole and put it in the bolt hole Keep up the good work

Good work! Was expecting a simple under bonnet clean and you turned it into a full on detail! Totally enjoyed it.

Looks like you got to that belt in the nick of time great video as always 😊👍

This episode was *chef’s kiss* man! Loved it

HEY ! Congratulations on the 100k milestone, I sincerely hope this channel keeps and keeps growing since you really deserve it ! ♥

Interessante content weer, gefeliciteerd met de 100k!

Congratulations on the 100k subscribers as I am watching today you are exactly on 100k, fantastic achievement well deserved 👏🌟

What an amazing transformation. Excellent work as always. 👍

Always an excellent video!!! I look forward to watching your videos, they are methodical and detailed, a satisfaction to watch how all your jobs are completed. THANK YOU!!!!

Prachtige episode en lekker lang ! Het resultaat is verbluffend zo schoon ziet deze motor er weer uit. Het werkt voor later wel fijn om met zo,n schone motor bezig te zijn en je ziet natuurlijk veel gemakkelijker mocht er ergens een lek zijn. Ik verbaas me telkens weer hoe gemakkelijk je ,vaak voor mij althans , technische hoogstandjes uitvoerd en net zo gemakkelijk alles uit elkaar haalt en weer net zo relaxt in elkaar monteert ! Je weer dat ik een echte leek ben op het gebied van auto,s en toch kijk ik met ontzettend veel voldoening naar je video,s ! Ben ook erg benieuwd naar je volgende project...Wat een mooie Citroëns stonden er in die garage, heb jaren lang tot volle tevredenheid CX gereden en kijk stiekem naar weer zo,n mooi exemplaar, fijn dat je dit hebt meegenomen in deze video ! Nou nu maar braaf geduld oefenen voor de volgende episode en je mag weten, ik kijk er reikhalzend naar uit !

Wow that aquablaster worked so good 👍 👏

Van harte gefeliciteerd met het behalen van de honderdduizend ! 🍀🍾🇳🇱

Great work on the engine bay, massive difference! Those idle control valves can be annoying indeed, mine seems to be acting up lately too luckily i managed to source a brand new one.

Thanks! Nice to follow your doings.

You just reached 100k subscribers. Congratulations!

awesome transformation and maintenance on the engine bay. enjoyed the long video.

Congratulations on 100k subscribers. Watching you from Istanbul.

Schitterende video! 40 minuten pure ontspanning 🔥🙏🏻

I am a subscriber at M539 restoration too . You both amazing mechanics

Fantastic job!

Great video Memphis. Very methodical approach with excellent commentary, you've taken 20 years off that engine bay. That old timing belt was definitely on the way out, glad you didn't skimp on any of the associated parts or gaskets either. She really sounded sweet when you started her up, probably due tot he tighter timing and clean injectors. That E28 looks cooler by the day, I think you're gonna have a blast this summer. Keep up the great work and thanks for creating, editing and uploading these videos dude. 👍😎

Great video Memphis! The difference is night and day and the car looks fantastic. The added bonus was the Citroen’s. We don’t see too many here in Canada unless they are hiding. I have seen a couple 2CV at shows. Keep up the great content!

Bravo pour ce nettoyage du compartiment moteur, l'après donne l'impression de photos tirées d'une brochure BMW de cette époque.

Very very satisfying to watch this. Love this kind of videos :)

Congratulations my friend on your 100k, always cool videos super great contents.

Great job as usual! Looks minty fresh!

Oh, wow, I got introduced to your channel with the 100K subs video and now I can't stop watching. My dad used to have a 520i, it was the first car I was driving when I got my license. I'm so tempted to get one, but I don't have a garage and absolutely no experience. And I'd love to have a 3-door Saab as well… Can't wait to see how the rust holes are getting fixed. I once tried to get one, but the doors where always rotten away and I would not know how to fix it.

Wonderful transformation!

Amazing job mr Memphis was great to watch cheers 👍

Terrific work! Looks stunning.

Beautiful job, completely worth the work

Well done young man, it looks great and I'm sure you're very proud, and so you should be. 👌🙌

Excactly 100k Congrats!

Awesome job Memphis love the E28 content 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍

Gorgeous work man!

This was a delight to watch!

That is insane renovation.

Thank you for sharing your experience professional work with passion. Before I watch your video I advise my son to do the work in his e28 520 87, best regards,

Congraz on 100,ooo My friend. I am so happy for you....😎😍

Another excellent video! Keep up the good work. I really enjoy these.

Excellent job done. The effect is very good.

Amazing result!

Gefeliciteerd met 100k!

Great job done mate.

Congratulations on 100K subscribers Memphis.... Informative video on the E28, it definitely turned out "clean! When are you doing content on the VW Mk1 (my personal favorite) and the Mini?
