Very helpful to watch experienced mechanics work on engines that you own and are working on too.

I like the use of the magnetic pick up as a preventative measure from dropping small items into the jungle, rather than a tool to recover them, assuming you can even find them (they have a way of hiding)

Thank for your comment. The magnetic tool is very helpful, it is a must for every mechanic🤝🏻

Hi buddy. I am glad you found it entertaining even though I try not to entertain, but share knowledge and experience. There are plenty of entertaining "rev battle type" car channels out there that I want to differ from. I am glad you enjoy it and thank you again for your support.

Thanks for the detailed video, probably the best one I have seen. Just a quick question, did you also replace the rubber washers (part number 11 12 1 437 395) or are you able to use the existing one? There are about 22 of them!

Hi Leon. It is best to replace them. I used Febi seals. Here is a link bit.ly/35Om1uB These are the best value for money I could get. also the other 6 on the front bolts bit.ly/3oTxHnf Thanks for watching and for the nice comment. If you like my videos share my content with friends and other BMW enthusiasts.

@@TheKeenMechanic Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Ok I will order some rubber washers then. Are the 6 on the front bolts have different rubber washers? I checked RealOEM website for my E38 - www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/showparts?id=GJ62-EUR-09-1995-E38-BMW-740iL&diagId=11_1229 I think they are all the same. (See no. 9 in the photo).

Thanks for your input. Can you tell me if the nuts/studs and seals are the same on the E31 4 ltr M60 engine please

Yes, but valve covers are slightly shaped differently.

@alanh2050 Жыл бұрын

Hello You said in the video that there are 8 Cap nuts which are M6 on each bank. In the video the 3 at the front on each bank look to be studs not Cap nuts. Is this correct? If so what size are they and what is their torque setting please

@TheKeenMechanic Жыл бұрын

You are correct. 3 bolts at front and 8 cap nuts on each bank. Torque is 10nm. If you are removing the valve covers change gaskets and bolt/cap seals. I have a video on the bolt and cap nuts seals. Hope this helps🔧🔩🤝

No special tools needed. About 2-3hrs if you are experienced and depending how much cleaning you are wiling to do🤝

@@TheKeenMechanic Thank you! I'm pretty experienced and I guess what I want to know is, besides the 10mm and the pik/long screw driver, what is most important? What about the bolts on the front half of the valve covers? Aren't those needing a specific bit?

My engine does not have that tappet noise. It sounds more like a sewing machine. What's wrong? E38 owner. 😮

@TheKeenMechanic 7 ай бұрын

May be there is nothing wrong with your engine. Look up other E38s and compare the sound. May be it is the noise from the fuel injectors which is normal🤝🏻
