I've worked on many many cars over the last 30 years and BMW's for the last few years now. It still amazes me how much junk has to come off to do a simple job! Great video.
I think this might be the best installation vid i watched. Everyone does everything so fast and atleast you still show how to take off parts that we cant see in the video. Definetly will be doing this on my m340 since i have this video, Thanks.
So this is the same pipe I have seen on the website but it does not list the 2020 g20 m340i so I thought it wouldn't work. Made me wait all this time! LOL. Thanks for the video, will be ordering soon. 👍
I did mine today. Video was very helpful, but as with everything he makes it look easier than it was. Those squeeze connectors are very stiff, but work on position ansd they will come off. So far no CEL.
😂 ... and then take this, and then take that off. After removing every part of the motor, just one more pipe in the way 😂😅 So much to remove until you reach the charge pipe.
Do it but check the forums to see what others have gotten one for. I saw it after I got mine and I could have worked a way better deal. Heck, order one the way you want it.
I just got a 340i today! I can't contain myself. But I'm not so sure I'm comfortable with doing this myself. Seems like a pain in the ass. I changed the intake and headers on my Honda no problem, but this is an entirely different beast.
@@kunalmore5212 Really not about the gains with the charge pipe, its more of a preventive thing to not blow the factory plastic one. It also looks a lot better.
Thanks a lot, this video is super helpful for a first time install. The pick tool tips were money, along with how to remove the clips. On the intake inlet, I like to remove that clip with a pick tool and wiggle the inlet off the turbo to get more room to access the intake PCV connector.
I love your RU-vid channel and I’m a subscriber. Quick question, would the replacement charge pipe void my warranty? I have a long list of mods I intend to do on my M340i, but I’m putting them on hold until the warranty ends.
Do you guys at Kies happen to have those gray clip that lock the wiring harness connectors to the sensors? One to the MAF. A couple more to the charge pipe. Wish I. Would buy some. One of mine disappeared (flew) into the engine bay.
Done my FTP based on videos, you should be good. But removing that vacuum line.. Even putting it back I found it was a mission due to the extremely tiny space to work your way around.
Whoever liked your comment, but did not respond. Is an A Hole. The benefits is due to the original parts being plastic you run the risk of breaking it as you build up boost. Higher PSI levels for greater performance. Imagine tuning the hard while stock. Yes, you will notice a difference, but over time you will notice some issues with the OEM parts breaking or creating a vaccumeleak.
