I gonna show the oil leak fix and valve cover restoration on my BMW 740i E38
The oil leaking is due to my mistake, back to the summer where I did the change of the timing guide, I forget one step (compress the front cover with the valve cover)

Great video, perfect camera angles and speed. I like that you showed the whole process instead of editing out steps.

Great Video. Thanks for sharing. Did you drain the engine oil ? I have seen forums where some say to drain it while others say,.. " No need".

At 3:36 I have no idea how you lifted up the black wire housing so the valve cover can be lifted out. It looks secured by to connectors. How did you do it?

You can remove the black housing from the connector but I would not recommend it because it can broke the wire inside when manipulate the black housing. I should have remove the connector.

Great video and great work. I want to lift the electrical box up before I remove the valve covers. After removing the 2 nuts on top, can the electric box be pulled straight off the injectors or do you have to remove each silver wire clip(8)? What type of sealant did you use for the half circles in the back of the valve cover and the 2 small spots in the front? Thanks.

You'll need to remove clip from the injector if you want to remove the electric box. For the sealant, I used a sealant like the rtv sealant

Hi, I'm always puzzled by those 2 rubber black rubber strips (close to the front,on the base metal, on each opposite sides of the chains), are they supposed to be left on the metal before putting the valve back on it? Should they be strpped?
@MecaLogic
@MecaLogic 4 года назад
In my case, i did that but the most important thing is to compress the front cache to ensure the flatness

What brand is that little drill with the variable position head you are using? Looks good for tight spaces.

@@MecaLogic Nice set. Looks like only available in Europe. Showing some signs of oil around the valve covers on my E38, but the PO had the valve cover gaskets changed 3 years ago. Haven't ever had them wear out that fast. Maybe a possibility?
