Just did it on my 120i thanks to your video! I did it with Motul Gear 300 75w90 which also has the tip to feel easily. I managed to remove about 0.75L with the seringue.
Great video thanks so much. Just bought myself a e81 2007 130i and love it. Is this the kind of job a very novice mechanic could carry out? Also, are you planning to do any brake disc / pad replacement videos. Liked and subscribed, loving the content, keep it coming 🙂👍🏼
Nice one Kenneth, they are great wee cars aye! Yes this is certainly a very straight forwards job for a novice, of course be sure that the car is well secure before getting underneath! I have heaps of videos in the pipeline for the 130i, will look at the brakes eventually. Thanks for watching and the sub! 👍
@@MTechGuy thank you too. I like the "cut" of this video. Clean, well explained and straight to the point. Just got my differential oil changed. That long life thing was like tar.
Is leveling the car needed because your driveway isn't level or do I need to lift the rear up even if it is on level ground? Thanks, very clean and useful video!
Hello. I was wondering if you had thoughts regarding just simply removing the rear diff cover to not only drain the old fluid better but to install a replacement gasket since it seems to be very easy to remove?
Hi, i made a mistake when i changed my Diff oil. I have a BMW 120i and i put 75W-140 and now it makes a rattle sound when i drive. It is posibile if I change the oil again with the corect one to solve the rattle ? Or I need to open it and change the bearings ?
I would start by draining and refill it with the correct oil, then after a few miles drain and refill it again, that way it will be well flushed out, then go from there
@@MTechGuy thank you very much. I am glad you have started on the e87 as I am just getting one in Sydney. Local delivery from a one owner. Lots of kms on the odometer but well looked after. Keep up the good work I have subscribed.
We're you getting a metal on metal sound from the diff before you changed the oil..i have an e87 ang getting a natal rubbing sound from the diff...do you think the diff might be gone ?
@@MTechGuy thanks for that! Looks like another easy diy for me soon :) do you have anymore suggestions with the transmission oil change while im down there? probably the guibo check i guess
Are you sure it’s the diff making that noise? I would get it inspected to confirm. if it is the diff, start by draining the oil and check it for metal wear particles
The oil level is also level with the vehicle and it is higher at the rear, therefore it is higher than that required by the vehicle, it is logical, because making videos are misleading.
Hi please, This is good but not “everybody” wants to see fluid flushes. Most people know how to do this and most garages do this for cheap. Can you please do some coding & Programming videos and some retrofits. You have a lot of BMWS which are missing alot of items, so can you make retrofit videos ? You said in a previous video your BMW qualified and your expert ! But I haven’t seen you do anything that many others haven’t done. Thanks Emmanuel
Not "everybody" is confident enough to do this type of job. By watching, and then maybe doing, those people may feel happy to tackle other jobs as well. Just because most people know, maybe they don't, doesn't mean it shouldn't be shown.
