Very nice neat conversion! You can see the attention to detail! It definitely pays off. I keep looking at options for an engine swap on my d1, looking at an m57 or om606 but it’s a lot of work.
Much better audio on this video. I look forward to following your RU-vid career - excellent presentation skills. We are starting to do these conversions on Patrols in Australia.
would like more info on the engine mounts as i am doing one soon in one of mine,do you have a wiring diagram so i can switch from the x5 pedal to the tdci one cheers
Nice job. However, I wouldn't put that engine in anything, just leave it in a BMW. I had a 2006 Range Rover Vogue with that engine, I regretted buying it instead of the V8 petrol. The BMW engine was underpowered, noisey and not particulary good for a working vehicle towing a trailer.
This is the m57n, NOT the m57 with a terrible gearbox like you've experienced. Maybe instead of making such generalised opinions, do your research next time you wet wipe. The m57n can handle 400HP easily with basic mods and a new turbo.
