Putting It Back Together! - M62TU Timing Chain Guide Replacement DIY - E53 Rescue

Big thanks to https://www.oembimmerparts.com for sponsoring this series. The BMW M62TU engine and its predecessors suffer from a common failure: the timing chain guides. Typically this problem surfaces after 125k miles or so, but people have gone north of 150-175k. It all depends on luck of the draw and how regular your oil service was, etc. Part 1: https://youtu.be/G5vsadCAFPE Part 2: https://youtu.be/96K4Zqy-TgQ Part 3: https://youtu.be/EyEEBDYofq8 Part 4: https://youtu.be/IaZk_2qq5b8 00:00:00 Intro 00:00:11 Oil pan investigation 00:02:17 Prep for lower timing cover 00:03:56 OEMBimmerParts.com 00:04:42 Front crank seal replacement 00:06:40 Lower timing cover install 00:08:58 Reinstalling the power steering pump 00:11:56 Lower timing cover bolts 00:14:12 Power steering pump pulley 00:15:07 About replacing the A/C pulley 00:16:32 Upper timing cover 00:18:52 Spark plugs and oil rails 00:21:22 Valve cover 00:24:38 VANOS solenoids 00:24:58 Timing Chain Tensioner 00:27:20 Installing the timing cover, valve cover, etc on the other bank 00:30:01 Reinstalling wires 00:31:36 A note about the oil dipstick o-ring 00:32:22 Reinstalling the oil dipstick tube 00:37:08 Replacing misc gaskets and o-rings on front of engine & more wire reconnections 00:45:29 Alternator reinstall 00:47:13 Water pump reinstall 00:49:53 Remaing wire reconnections 00:51:09 The crank pulley adventure (mistakes were made) 00:57:44 Harmonic balancer 00:58:38 Pulleys, belts, crossover pipes 01:01:13 Fuel rail, brackets, and solenoids 01:03:12 Coils & covers 01:03:52 Radiator & coolant hose reinstall 01:09:53 Final component reinstall 01:11:52 Something happened to the bumper 01:13:29 New(ish) hood 01:13:45 First run! 01:17:33 Wrap up This video is for entertainment purposes only. 50sKid assumes no liability for any repairs or modifications performed by the viewer as a result of the information contained in this video.
