The SECRET To Replacing Index 12 Injectors FOR CHEAP on BMW N54 (135i, 335i, 535i)

As most of you know, the price to replace injectors on an N54 BMW is expensive. Unfortunately, the injectors in my 335i started leaking and required replacement. Since I don't like throwing money away, I decided to fix the issue the most economic way possible.

You failed to mention the importance of how the hold down brackets are orientated when re-installing. They are pre-bent and act as a spring loaded device to soften the impact from the combustion process along with the decoupler rings. If installed upside down, they don't function in that manner and can cause wear in the head bore where the injector fits into, eventually enlarging it, usually into an oval, and cause compression leaks and misfires. If left unchecked and installed wrong, it can, and will, ruin the head.

For anyone here wanting to do this, please do NOT use Pen caps!! You will cause so many issues down the line with the seals. Even if you have to buy the tools and return them, you're going to kill your engine. People on the E90 forums have complained that this has killed their engine as the seal was not properly on there. 116$ for the tools, 75$ used sounds a lot better than buying a whole new engine or repairing your newly melted head.

@delta8447 5 ай бұрын

doesn’t matter how you do it. as long as you can confirm it is sealing that’s all that matters. these tools work the same way, they are both compressing the seal.

@@delta8447 You're an owner, not a mechanic. Already had to do 4 n54 motors from 23 year old kids using pencaps due to them either breaking the seal or not sealing properly. This is backed by the e90 forums as well. I made various post with photos on the e90 forums due to this. If you wanna use pen caps instead of the "proper" tool then you should sell your car.

Hey man! Thanks for watching. I appreciate that and am glad it's inspiring you. Insurance should not be $400-500 per month on a 135i! But keep saving and keep learning, I did the same thing before I finally got into this platform.

@mxracingunlimitedltd7784 4 жыл бұрын

Look into a BMW 128i 6MT, if the 135i is too much for insurance. Should be cheaper than a twin turbo rwd coupe lol. Theyre fun and light cars. Plus with a few mods and the oem 330i 3-Stage Intake Manifold, and a tune you'll be t about 300HP crank HP. With a great sounding, quick revving, amd extremely responsive engine in a great chassis. The 128i & 135i share the same chassis and lotss of other parts. They will both handle amazing with the proper mods. For example, a 328i is 230hp, a 330i is 255hp stock, and a 335i is 300hp stock. But a 128i is also 300-400lbs lighter than a 335i. Plus youd be rocking the last, most advanced (Full-VANOS), Naturally Aspirated Inline-6 BMW made after the E46 M3's motor.

Hey Bro, when you change coils, injectors, and plugs, you really should clear all adaptations so that the DME can restart the fuel settings. Don’t forget to reset throttle pedal throw after you clear all adaptations. This will force a quicker learn than just driving around for 100 miles and letting it smooth out. Peace.

@BTSyaya 4 жыл бұрын

Bob Cooper what advantages does this bring at all? I’ve never seen anybody suggest this after each coil, plug or even injectors change. I’ve done them all on my n54 and never had problems without doing an adapt reset.

@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын

I've also never reset adaptations for these maintenance items. However, I don't think it would hurt anything by doing so. If you're troubleshooting issues, it's a good idea to reset adaptations. Otherwise if you're just doing maintenance, I think it's not needed.

I believe he's using gapped colder plugs maybe one step or two step colder. I use two step colder ngk on mine and they are 1 prung which is what's use on these cars when running higher power. The stock ones miss fire at high power.

@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын

RJ is correct, I'm using gappable 1 prong plugs. The Bosch 3 prong plugs are OEM, not the best for modified BMWs. Once you start modding, you want the NGK 1 prong plugs to adjust the gap and heat level. But if you're stock, the Bosch 3 prong plugs are fine. Walnut blast is another great maintenance item, glad to hear your son's E60 is feeling much better!

Good video Having refurbished and tested dozens of sets of these Injectors,testing the spray patterns,piezo stack integrity and leak testing at 205 bar,the biggest problem with these Injectors is fuel separation that causes the Injector to get sticky and fall out of its original calibration.The fact that you mentioned the symptom got worse in the cold,,points towards the direction of the waxes,varnish and olefiifins that forms during the continuous stop start and heat soak that percolates the fuel and causes the issue in the 1st place.This occurs in any of the index #'s including 12's.

Unfortunately he's obviously too busy doing other things in his life these days to make much content. I can't blame him if it makes him happy but it's a big loss for the rest of us. Sad face here. I am now watching "Zero to 60" to scratch that N54 itch LOL. But love Jake still! I was hoping the he was going to tell us some way of buying injectors of much cheaper than they are. But he's showing how to DIY to save the cash of getting someone else to do it. Which is great advice and he does a super job as usual. But I was hoping..... LOL.

Im not sure if its my injector that's failing or my hpfp, Im getting codes 29CD - Combustion misfires, cylinder 1, 2AAF Fuel pump, plausibility and 2E18 - Firing Cylinder 1. its on limp mode now. Can i switch the injector 1 and 2 to see if im getting cylinder 2 misfire to determine if in fact it is the injector thats the issue? and can i do that without replacing the rings and decompressor rings simply to diagnose? or can i casue damage this way? My original issue was after hard acceleration especially on the highway the car was choking / shaking. I have replaced the coils and spark plugs , which seemed to fix the issue for a month. few days ago i accelerated hard again and it went into limp mode and i am getting the codes above. Beforfe the limp mode I also got a code 29D9 Misfire at low tank fill level. prior and in addition the the codes above. Any suggestions? if it was the HPFP failing wouldnt I have issues with more than 1 cylinder?

Jake are you able to remove injectors to clean them, and put them back in without having to replace plastic ring?

For the coding on the protool app . You buy the coding license alone or just the diagnostic license or you have to buy both licenses . Diagnostic and coding ?

I had the situation where two of the four new Injectors I bought were seemingly defective so I had to put back two of the old.ones while I wait for the replavements to.arrive starting showing symptoms after driving and parking for over an hour do I code the old ones using the old values and the new ones with the new values ?

I’m in the UK, looked on eBay for index 12s and lots of them are so cheap and come from China. I don’t want to end up buying fakes, it seems much harder to find legit used ones over here. Have you got any advice? Or any sites that sell them over where you are that would ship them out to the uk? Thanks

Yes, you can do that. However, if your index 12s are working fine, I wouldn't remove them to replace the seals and such.

Jake Spence not sure if they are or not. All I know is that my idle is rough with lots of hiccups and I’ve had a misfire in cylinder 6. I was told my code p112f was related to injectors and I need to replace them. How can I determine if the injectors are okay once I remove them? How can I tell they are bad?

@alexfeole6212 4 жыл бұрын

I got the same code on mine and it runs really bad under 2k rpm so I guess I’ll be doing this soon

@commiesandmums 4 жыл бұрын

Alex Feole just took it to my local BMW shop. Great people, very knowledgeable about 335’s. They said my p112f code was old and only happened once. Likely due to a boost leak. They smoke tested it and found no significant leak and confirmed I probably don’t have injector issues and was mostly likely due to bad e85 and carbon build up. Cylinder 6 is notorious for carbon build up. They recommend a walnut blasting if you are having consistent cylinder 6 misfires. Make sure to swap coils and sparks to make sure it isn’t an ignition issue.

A word of advice to anyone, make sure you don’t strip out the bolt that holds that bracket down. The tech that did my injectors must have stripped it and when I overboosted over 30 psi it blew those 2 injectors out. Luckily I was able to tap a larger size thread on the head and tighten the bracket back down with a larger bolt.

@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын

Good reminder. With the proper tools and torque specs, you shouldn't have any issues stripping bolts or threads. But I'm glad you got it fixed, shame that a proper tech would have that issue.

Thank you so much for this informative video! Lately my N54 experienced a misfire in cylinder 1 as well as really a rough cold start with frequent hiccups. A local shop couldn't find the issue but I suspect that it's a leaky injector. Could a leaky injector be the cause? I am not getting any fault codes pertaining to the HPFP. New NGK spark plugs and a precision raceworks ignition kit unfortunately did not resolve the issue either.

@hackn3y199 4 жыл бұрын

I have a somewhat similar issue on 3, changed plugs and coil without any change, I replaced the injector seal and decoupler yesterday and it seemed to have fixed it, but today it's misfiring again at start and low rpms. Waiting on a new injector, but hoping that's the issue. I did drive it earlier with some added techron fuel cleaner for about an hour, but still not right at idle. I think mine are index 1 injectors, so prolly need replaced anyway.

@jake_spence 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, to me it sounds like it could be an injector issue. Hard to pin-point it exactly. But you could let the car sit overnight and then remove the spark plug in the morning and see if it smells of fuel or has fuel on it. If so, I'd bet on an injector.
