Check out www.oembimmerparts.com to get your parts for this job!
VERY IMPORTANT: I recommend you look at the part numbers on your existing shocks and struts to figure out if you have the sports suspension or not so that you know what to order. I have the sports suspension so this is what I ordered:
Front struts:
31316786003 Left front strut sports suspension
31316786004 right front strut sports suspension
31331094749 BMW Mini Strut Dust Sleeve - Febi Bilstein
31306775098 BMW Strut Mount - Lemforder 2700101
Rear shocks:
33526771729 Rear shock sports suspension
33536767335 BMW Shock Bump Stop - Febi Bilstein
33506771737 BMW Shock Mount - Lemforder
33506771738 BMW Shock Mount - Lemforder
33526768544 BMW E9X 3-Series Rear Shock Mount OEM
As always, visit www.realoem.com to figure out exactly which part numbers belong to your car by looking up your VIN number.
Good luck!

Ahah intro inspired by M539. Nice

Not just him, also Road Kill or many other channels. I think it's a good idea to see a preview of what you're gonna see in the next half hour, because you lose the most people in the first 30 seconds.

I no longer own a E46. Regardless, I remember how much time, money, and headaches this channel saved me from. Because of that appreciation i will still continue to stay subbed and like every video you post. Thanks a lot for helping me through the wonderful journey of owning two E46s!

I still own a 2002 E46, and STILL enjoying those time, money, and headaches this channel saved me from! He is the best!

Thanks so much for still watching. I totally understand when people drift away from my channel because they sell their car.

Two weeks ago watched X3 oil pan gasket replacement as a preparation for changing one on my wife's X3 F25 N55. Saved my a$$ big time. Good to see you back man!

@MrKnockoff Месяц назад

Thanks for this, been trying to figure out how to get the spring compressed right to get this done and I think this is it. (using on my e90, but still very useful). Now hopefully the right side takes 1/3 time as the left

@harrison2655 Месяц назад

You're the best with these videos, love how you always talk about things to consider while doing the job and potential other parts that would be easy to replace at the same time. Nice work!

A strut mount spreader tool makes life much easier

@Vision33r 19 дней назад

Good video, suspension can be a huge pita and watching yours made it easier for my job. The most important thing is to lower the control arms so that you can get the strut enough room to slide into the knuckle.

@scottrobson4097 25 дней назад

On the front shocks, the bump stop is not supposed to be mainly tucked into the bellows, but stick out the top so you put it in upside down

@fant1105 3 дня назад

Hi, i just wanted to say thanks for all the videos with the e46, built my 325ci fl with some of your videos, thanks 👍 Oh yeah and next one will be an e92 335i with the n55 so i’ll have to watch some more

@aor3200 2 месяца назад

Maybe stupid question, i am now watching your great video. I saw you have to hammer hub quite a lot before you get shock removed. I would put big flathead screwdriver in that groove with hammer, to spread it. Then shock is much more easy to remove. At least in E46 series it helps. Second thing, maybe good idea to use some lubricant spray on spring compressors. Some people said you should only use hand tools when you tight spring compressors, not impact.

@50sKid 2 месяца назад

I did use a big chisel to spread it apart.

@spazmochad 2 месяца назад

Bilstein B4's are easier to fit as a DIY as they don't need such high compression of the spring, they do a m-sport version as well.

@Haz6667 Месяц назад

Try motor mounts for the clunk when you come to a stop or brake

@phoenixosprey7455 2 месяца назад

Please buy a special socket for removing the front struts. For example HAZET 4912-3

@LukeMaloneBMX 2 месяца назад

Definitely a must, it makes this job so easy.

@50sKid 2 месяца назад

My special tool is that vice grip, lol. Sometimes you don't need to buy every special tool.

I have mounted my rear shocks but I didn't have to do all that what you did especially underneath with the bolts It's actually there's an easier way You're doing it the more difficult and unefficient way for the rear

Hi 50s KID, Can you help me please? "I replaced the valve cover gasket and after starting the engine, it started to hum and the engine ran as if a cylinder was misfiring. The humming noise comes from the CCV tube that goes into the valve cover. When I disconnect it, there is pressure coming from the tube that causes the humming. When I block the tube with my hand, the engine runs well. Do you know how to solve this problem?" Thanks Joseph

@50sKid 2 месяца назад

Your CCV rubber thingie (can't think of the word right now) is toast. Replace the CCV.

@50sKid 2 месяца назад

alignment for sure, but it shouldn't have been off if you properly aligned the little peg in the hole at the top of the strut tower.

@@50sKid Thank you for your reply. The car has positive camber and is riding about an inch too high. The guy who put in the struts etc used amazon junk. So i have bought all new from oembrimmer and replacing myself.

Bro- you shouldn't post videos if you don't actually know wtf you're doing. You're supposed to spread that bolted clamp on the base of the strut with a beefy chisel tip before you pound it off... that's BASIC KNOWLEDGE
