Using a second lift to bring the car to standard height 36-38 cm is smart. I like it. I suppose I have to do the same when i have replaced my coil spring on my BMW F11 525D xdrive 2012.

@0x8080 8 месяцев назад

Excellent video. Weird enough my F10 550i xdrive makes the weirdest noise in the front right while turning and applying gas. Then more recently I started experiencing intermittent shutter that felt deathly on the front right where that original noise was coming from. Still not exactly sure whats wrong, but the F10 is getting garaged until its figured out. Steering wheel shakes left to right pretty violently while braking during those moments.

Did the same on my car. The nut on the "balljoint" was a m....f..... to get off. Ended up cutting it almost in half and then used an impact gun to get it off.. Did you also change the bolt?. I changed the clipnut, but not the bolt. Asked one of the mechanics at my locale BMW dealer, where i bought the clipnuts, and he told me it was not necessary.

@clemey6343 Год назад

F10 530d car has a vibration at roughly 60-80mph but not always. When heat gets into discs from braking 3-4 times in a row then it starts vibrating threw braking also. Discs and pads been changed multiple times but comes back after couple weeks. Mechanic can’t find the problem and just keeps replacing the discs and pads. Anyone got any ideas or had this problem before and know the solution?

@AlexAndreiZAR Год назад

Hi! Great videos! Love how you pay attention to details on showing component part numbers, tools needed, etc. I've got only one question - why are you using a torque wrench to loosen bolts? As far as I know torque wrenches must only be used to tighten bolts.

I wonder if this could be the reason to vibrate on F31 series as well. I have problems with vibrations when braking, but not every time, sometimes the car is braking like new, and next time it starts to vibrate like it is going to fall apart. I have been at 4 mechanic shops and none of them can find the problem, they all say they dont see any problem
