Firstly thanks for the vid/s, don't usually comment but you've gotten me out of a hole a few times 😅 That initial nut off the top of the track rod end is an absolute nightmare to crack, I've used plenty of WD but it's as stiff as hell!! Any suggestions?

@TheBimmerFixer 4 месяца назад

@MrDirtydonuts You're very welcome and thank you for the comment! 👍🏻 Yeah its a real pain, I would try get a jack under the track rod where it meets the hub and put pressure on the actual ball and socket of the track rod. That can cause enough pressure to stop it from spinning and allows the nut to come off. If you can and able to you can use heat too that usually does the job and if all else fails plus gas penetrating fluid or cutting disc but hopefully one or all will get it off. Good luck 👍🏻

how did u manage to torque your tie rod nut to 80nm using a torx wrench by the way? cos i'm assuming the tie rod ball thingy would start spinning along with the upper nut, no? do u hav some sort of 'open ended' torx wrench? thanks

@TheBimmerFixer 8 месяцев назад

@turbo4lyfe1 Hi, thank for the great question. Yeah I have an open ended torque rench it's a game changer I should have put the link in the description but will now 👍🏻

Thank you soo much for these videos! They've helped me a lot and saved me a ton of money. My e60 has exhaust manifold leak and I'm not sure if I should try to fix it myself. Taking it off seems really complicated. What's your opinion of it?

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@Mateja Stankovic Hi Mateja, thank you for your comment and I'm so pleased to hear that my videos have helped you and saved you a ton of money. Yeah there isn't any hiding the fact that it's quite a tricky job and those manifold bolts are evil too they love to round off, snap or just won't come out. But that all said its definitely a job that can be completed at home if you take your time and don't rush it. I would also say i would try and replacing the manifold and it's bolts and gaskets when ever possible, you don't want to go through all that hard work of taking it off and pitting it back on only to find another leak or having a bolt snap when replacing the manifold. Hope this helps a little if you have any more questions please ask im happy to help. 👍

I have a problem with my idrive on my bmw 525...it works fine but sometimes it lags and audio turns off when am driving ..help me pls

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

Hi Crazy Joseph, sorry to hear about your idrive not working properly I will help you best I can. Does the screen go black/off and then come back on again?

@bookiesmasters5365 2 года назад

@@TheBimmerFixer no its just stays on but the audio went off and i cant do anything but the screen is always on

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@Crazy Joseph sounds like it might need a hard reset. Do you have ccc or cic idrive system?

@bookiesmasters5365 2 года назад

@@TheBimmerFixer ccc

@TheBimmerFixer 2 года назад

@Crazy Joseph Yeah let's do a forced reset that should fix it. You do this by pressing the DVD eject button the CD eject button and the volume/on off button at the same time this will reset and reboot the ccc and should solve the problem.
