5w-40 C3 is the minimum grade that should be used.
Just want to point out that the tube that enters the air filter box is glued to its fixing bracket during manufacture. That glued joint can be easily broken when flexing to remove the airbox. The tubes front facing end is only held by one bolt.. so I suggest removing the tube completely rather than trying to work the box off it. If the glued on fixing does get broken it is possible not to notice.. then the front of this air inlet tube can come out of the hole in the front member and drop down and become half obstructed by the upper cross member, reducing air intake and therefore performance at higher revs. Also, I would suggest running the engine to warm the oil before starting to drain. Be carefull if removing the airbox assembly completely from the top of the throttle body intake as anything dropping into the throttle body could have consequences. When 'Hand' tightening the oil filter make sure your hand and filter body are squeaky clean, or your tightening may not be sufficient. It's usually said, tighten to contact point then 1/3rd of a turn further. Hope this helps someone avoid any problems. 😊
you see the rubber cuff is broken?
Good one.
Be careful when you are undoing oil filter housing. Sometimes oil get stuck there and the alternator below gets an unwanted oil shower
yep, did that :(
Don’t forget to reset the service notice on your speedo 😂
Amazing work. Thanks for posting you hard work Job well done !
Amazing dude I wish you lived in Canada I have a 2009 mini cooper s and it is leaking
First thank you, I wish you lived next door and I'd feed you well and pay you for this job lol. Question, I'm confused...if you used the torque wrench and set it to the correct tightness why did you then do the 90 degree turns AFTER it was torqued to spec?
Thanks mate, what is the link to that handheld to reset the oil lights?
Should of undone oil drain plug, first, then oil filter, amateur
Cheers mate😂
This dude is top notch! Thanks a lot
Thank you for watching pal! Glad tonhelp
진짜 대단해!! 추가로 개조할 생각은 없어요?😊
Nice video - does the black paint on the inside make the headlight appear any less bright at all? Thanks
Thanks for watching! No the black paint doesn’t effect the brightness as they’re projector headlights. The light is magnified through the lens and doesn’t rely on the reflective material inside the headlight like conventional headlights with the halogen bulbs
Good
Hi, I just replaced my front pads, excellent guide, thanks mate (and I remembered to remove the rag and replace the reservoir cap when I came to drop my bonnet (ha ha) saved me a bomb, thanks again, cheer’s.
Hello, it looks good being black and saves some money in buying new front lights.as long you don't mad lol.
Hi good video mate I have the same problem with my ford fiesta zetec 1.4 tdci been told number 4 injector not right but on dash it says electric accreltor control fail? he put on dinostic it coming up with number 4 still will the code need to be wrote down so then it can be coded or will it work on its own thank you
Doesn’t need to be coded👍🏻
@BTR_REBUILD cheers mate is number 4 second one from gear box
@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sx from memory, it goes 4-3-2-1 from timing chain side to the gearbox. As I originally accidentally changed number 1 instead of 4 and then learned that it’s backwards on these engines. Hope that helps
@BTR_REBUILD ok ill try that mine is a 03 plate iam in UK here or try taking the leads off one at a time will that help thank you
@@CharlotteGreen-kv9sxYeah that’s the best way, see if it changes. If not that’s your missing injector
Did you use the old Solenoid from the bad pump? Didn't the new pump come with a new Solenoid and need to be pushed through the engine block to disconnect/ reconnect? I've got an N18- maybe yours differs? I'm stuck at this step.
This is what they charge £120 for? unbelievable, I didn't realise it was so simple!
You pay for the parts, labour and the experience. Never mind the costs that come with running a garage. But yes it is this simple mate!
Over watched this video on and off that last two days as I changed out the timing chain and all the other stuff from Detroit Tuned. Things I learned: the four bolts that hold the upper motor mount bottom bracket to the block may break. You can’t remove the timing chain and guides with the dipstick still in place. And finally, 15” diameter walnut logs work great as Jack stands when you can’t find your second pair. 😊
Do you still having the mufflers on?
Yes, I only replaced the down pipe/catalytic converter
@BTR_REBUILD I'll want a similar sports cat as yours and delete the muffler 🥵 I hope it will sounds sweet plus a huge air intake..
Sorry bud you can not do this, you need new bolt and use brake cleaner voor het doordraaien van de tandwielen op de kruk of nokkenas, er mag beslist geen olie tussen zitten, ook moet je alle tandwielen vervangen dus ook de vvt vanwege een nieuwe ketting ( chain) alleen op nieuwe tanden kan, Ook kun je de nokkenas bouten maar 1 x gebruiken zijn rekbouten en nog veel meer zoals de tipex witte stip op de nokkenas bout om de 90 graden te zien, en je moet een stapel stenen onder de krukasboutstang plaatsen zodat je normaal kracht kunt zetten
Well done, this is very good information
I’m glad I can help you!
Are bith front wheels lifted of the ground? Juat windering if its okay to turn the wheel if just one qheel is raised on the jack? Thanks
I would be cautious, but I have done it before
Excellent. What a clever effort ..
Thank you mate, appreciate the kind words😀
Good on you having a go, learning in the University Of Life. At one point, you will switch from being an amateur to a skilled bodywork specialist
I hope so mate, thanks for watching! I will definitely keep at it👍🏻
She's looking good, nice work on this!!
Thank you🙌🏻 Can’t wait to get some paint on her and final assembly!
Good video now after watching I have confidence repairing my own oil leak good job
That’s the spirit mate! It’s honestly really satisfying when you’ve fixed something that’s been bugging you like an oil leak!
Work is coming along nice and learning from your experience 😁 - what filler and primer did you use ?
Great to hear mate! I tend to use all UPOL products, I like how they spray and how they work. I’ve found that using the same brand for all of my prep work causes less reactions and problems with my paint
Should have just filled it anyway you filling it in the end, noone gonna ever know , Good paint jobs main think not like it's a big deep dent
I understand that mate, I’ve found that thick layers of filler like to sink over time so I pulled the metal out as far as I could so I was using less product. It’s good practice but I can see where your coming from. Thanks for watching mate, I really appreciate it👍🏻
Hello, brilliant work, the lines in the paintwork and dents are out, looking smart.
Thanks Steve, it look me a while to get there but the car is coming along nicely. Just waiting again now for the next bit of nice weather lol
Good job mate!
Thank you mate, really appreciated👍🏻
You don't need to take off the frontend to do this though
It is much easier mind
Top man it's a pity you didn't do plugs really but good advice thanks keep em comming
I’ve started to include plugs now in my videos, thanks for watching mate I appreciate it
The repair work and paint are fantastic! Are you a paint sprayer by trade?
Thank you mate! I’m not no, I work in a factory polishing Aston Martins but I like to try all aspects of body work on any cars!
Very good video mate, no messing about and very easy to see what you’re doing. Helped a lot
Glad I could help you mate
Hi there buddy, thanks for the video. Quick question, I've just brought a 2008 320D M sport, and I don't have the plastic cover/box over the radiator you removed at 2:30. Is this common for year?! I had an overheating coolant issue on motorway driving, but fine around town. And also no hot air blowing with heater on full inside car.
Edit: Scratch that, it is there lol! I obviously wasn't paying attention 😂
Mate I have no idea who you are but watching this, at the end I was so proud of you! Keep up the good work!
Thank you mate! Ahaha and I have been carrying on since I posted that video lol. Thanks for watching pal
Super calm about it, sometimes in situations like this its best not to allow things to take from your energy .... easy said then done.
It was an annoying situation mate, but I’m fortunate enough to be able to repair panels myself. Others have to go down other more stressful routes. Thanks for watching mate
With the damages did copart send you out new parts - bumper work was spot on.
No pal, you will never have any luck getting anything from Copart unfortunately. I appreciate it mate, wasn’t an easy job but managed to get it looking far better
@@BTR_REBUILD 🤣ye i'm getting that impression from them😓
@@RaphyRandomI was offered £25 for a mistake made with the wrong category on a car. Making the car worthless, that was last year. I’m still waiting for the £25
Really good job well done.
Thank you pal👍🏻
Good job mate, Looks good!! Should be impressed with the turn out.
I’m over the moon mate honestly, thanks for watching😄
Hello, brilliant work done on this Mini convertible,compared to how it was,with the new bonnet and painting ,the results are amazing.
Cheers mate, the quality of my rebuilds I believe are getting better with each one I do. Thanks for the continued support mate
Looks really good keep it up
Thanks mate, really happy with how she turned out! Cheers for watching and supporting🙌🏻
great video mate well explained and good views of what you was doing.cheers
Not a problem mate, thanks for watching my video as I know there’s a couple on here👍🏻
Nice one mate. Shouldn't you have emptied the sump before all that muck you got from removing the filter? Good straightforward video though mate!👍
Should be done exactly as You said . Less mess
Well appreciated bro. I shall be changing mine myself this weekend.
One of the easiest jobs on this car mate honestly
Hello, great work so far,the rear bumper looks brilliant.
Thank you mate, just in the middle of doing the heavy work on the one side. Couple more episodes to come on this one👍🏻 Thanks for watching mate, always appreciate it
Always wear eye protection and maybe a condom whilst having a clio on top. Shes a dusty bitch.
Also do a cabin filter. I also bought a new metal oil dip stick as the plastic one is hard to see.
