That E30 makes me harrrrd😜
Finally a true BMW on the channel, not a plastic crap. Just a tip for M20/M30 valve adjusments most of the time it is more reliable to shim it at the valve so when you adjust it it doesn't move the adjusment while tightening it. I'm sure Ninja has done it enough times to be able to do it from the first time everytime, but for us normal people it is very annoying to adjust the valve then assemble everything to have to adjust them again only because one of the valves moved while tightening.
None still richer than the Snap On guy.
Taco Tuesday, lol.
2500 friggin dollars to do a valve cover gasket?! Help my fuck.
It's way easier to take out the 4 bolts in the hood and remove it. Only takes a minute and gives yourself a lot more room to work.
When I saw the need of 2 specialized tools to take the radiator fan off i decided that the rest of my automotive interests will be bashing and convincing others to consider BMW a big fat full of propaganda POS who have done well in convincing the world that they're cars are not dumpsters on wheels with nice leather.
Is it fair or even accurate to call that "evolution" instead of degradation?
Idk if you look more like Marty mcfly or the fonz with that god awful jacket
Imagine being one of Johnnie's customers and continuously seeing your vehicle stranded on one of his lifts while he is babysitting Hoovie while making these videos.
Yeah, but good luck actually getting the new valve cover gasket to actually seal. You need shiz loads of RTV.
OK Guys, I had a 1989 320i straight six, loved that car. I want first dibs on that baby .... pahleeze! ...
He buys the worst, abused, cheapest cars and formulates harmful opinions about BMW.
M20 engines are very reliable.
I was gonna say the same...but for Audi!
Tip from the shop :P Take off your rings if you care about your fingers.
Last rational built BMW are E46 and E39, newer models are endlessly more complicated and not that much better in comfort etc.
My son's work for huge tech firms in Seattle. They owned BMW's for years. M-3's, M-4s, M-5's. They all had to dump them. The cost of repairs was prodigious. Every time a service light went on it cost thousands. One designer son earns $200,000.00 plus a year and after he spent $40,000.00 in repairs on his M-3 ,after he spent $40,000.00 on the purchase price. He now drives a restored 1999 Honda Prelude,and a 1982 Delorean. He is perfectly happy finally.
Holy crap AWD?
Timing belts every 30k? *looks over at 2010 Insight with 320K and factory belt*
Mine [1986, 325IS] went at about 45,000. It's like Priority Job #1 on these cars.
Didt a BMW DPF change some time ago, normally you can take out the airfilt box and get access to the clamp on the turbo, but somehow BMW had made the airfilter box and val cover as one unit. What a pain in the Anaheims garden it was to get that clamp of and even worse to get the new one in. BMW lost there way after the M52 engine.
The Car Wizard is Optimus Prime. Ninja is Shia La Bouef. Hoovey is Jeremy Clarkson . I'm possibly being unfair on ninja here
Gee i wonder why so many wholesale lots are full of BMWs? No one wants to have them fixed, instead they dump them.
BMW’s are 💩
Takes me back to the days of the Opel VS BMW wars of the 80's in South Africa. The BMW 325 IS VS the Opel Kadett Superboss. I was a HUGE Tony Viana fan who drove the Winfield BMW and even cheered him when we were VIP guests with an Opel dealership. That was after BMW built the 325IS (2,7) engine to compete with the C20XE engined Opel. The BMW's sounded so sweet, but the Opel triumphed in the end. I later had an Opel with a C20XE motor and that thing was Uber fast, 270km/h (168mph) flat out, stock standard normally aspirated. The BMW was governed to 245km/h (152mph).
You need 3 friends in life - Mr. Hoovie, Mr. Wheezard and Mr. Ninja!!! :D
To bad that ridge wallet is a $125
For a piece of machined aluminum too. Such a joke, I bet there's a cheaper knockoff that's just as good somewhere.
Absolutely nothing wrong with the ac delco belt. BMW uses parts from Valero for god sakes
The Ridge Wallets are awesome!! I have used one for the last year and a half. Before I just carried a couple of loose cards in my front pocket. I hated the typical wallet size and shape. The Ridge Wallet is great and kinda fun to use especially when popping a card back into place.
Ran a side BMW shop on my days off on Nextdoor. I made a killing on BMW 5 years old plus. My scanner paid off many times over. Most parts I replaced had to be coded. I would update I drive with iPhone for 100. Easy 5 mins. Brake jobs were gravy work....
Ninja charges $1,000 for a n54 valve cover gasket? Fuck him and the horse he rode in on. It’s a 2hr job and the valve covers are plastic.
My e30 killed its self cause it wanted a newer engine
Why I'll never own a BMW newer than my E39.. Wish I still had my E28.
German engineering
Ok people, I have a 1986 325e BMW, runs great, but needs to be refurbished. Looking to sell, and I’d Love to refurbish it myself, but I was hurt 8yrs ago at work. So I can’t do what I really wanted to do, refurbish it. So I’m looking for a great home, and I know there’s hope for finding someone on this channel. Let me know if ya know of someone who will refurbish it, please! Let me know, thanks Rick
"BMW has to be backwards. .Mother Fxcker!" Better words couldn't be said, Ninja.
This is funny... reminds me of working on my own cars at my mechanics shop ...my friend's a VW ninja and easily runs circles around me lol
I've had one well known UK BMW garage try to con me out of a Turbo on an E61 535d. The issue? Cracked exhaust manifold. Sorry, mechanics not are rich because owners are morons. It's because they are cheating liars who'd sell their wives and children to get further in life. Was I pissed? You bet! A £1500 potential repair was £300 labour via a trusted mechanic + £100 in parts to repair. I will show a view to show what the issue was. The owner of the garage looked me in the eye and said 'your manifold' is fine. Thank God I checked it myself to expose that cheat. Garage for anyone wondering was Autobahn Halesowen. A BMW Car Club UK Sponsor for those wondering.
13:20 Car ninja is Albanian!!!!
The spelling mistake in his T-Shirt is bugging me off!
i've done valve cover gaskets on modern bmws. just like the one shown at 3:16 they aren't terrible took maybe 3.5 hours max .
I think it's better you not to touch those tools..
Ah, Albanian! I've been wondering about his accent for a while.
Ive had afew bmws.There is a large mechanical shop in my area that only work on bmws and mercs.The mechanics always tell their customers to sell their cars because they are crap.This no joke.No i own a porsche same shit!
Does the ninja have a LVworld channel? I’d love to follow
Did anyone see the price of Ridge Wallets, youd have to be a BMW mechanic to afford one!
do you have any more videos on mechanics talking about the newer engines?
I've done this same job on my E30...Thank you for the entertainment, so much easier to work on than a newer car.
I was wondering when I would see an N63 on this channel
I feel verry good after watching your videos. You are so positive fixing these vehecles with help from good mechanics.
I love the scream sound effects when you work on stuff, sounds exactly like me when I work on my car🤣🤣🤣. You should have put them in this video, I was disappointed you didnt.
I've been trying to place Johnny's accent since his first appearance, and all I had to see was his phones home screen...
In my country, BMW stands for break my wallet
Owned a e30 and I wish I never sold it. Was a 1990 325iS coupe. This was before you had to be rich to own one. Car was mint too.
13:21 24h clock! My man!
Hah want a modern engine that is easy to work on buy a Toyota or Honda
In other words never buy a newer used BMW!!! lol
a box of those wallets fell infront of me at work , i know have 1 lol
The constant complaining has a point, but the increased complexity is present in most modern cars. So it sounds like he's targeting a specific brand. But I might just be triggered. LoL.
From what I know, BMWs are particularly bad for this.
For someone as clueless as you sure you have a lot of opinions . Your poor millionaire mechanic .
Was curious if the transfer case had to be repaired? If so, can you share some details on the fix?
What’s the difference between a BMW and a porcupine? A porcupine has pricks on the outside...
We like to see a real automotive video. We don't care about the brand history. My first BMW was a 1995 model 2002. Thank goodness for fast forward!
does ninja have a channel??
I wouldn't own a BMW if you gave me one.
Hoovie did a thing.
Electric cars.... yeah that's the ticket. Sarc off
I just go to mechanic to see if he diagnoses the problem and then I fix it myself. Been to 10 different mechanics
Please clean that intake of grease before it bakes on, ASAP!, I have never seen one so clean in my life.
86/89 M20 engines were prone to the cylinder head bolts snapping off - not very common but BMW changed to Torx stretch bolts in late '89 for a reason and it is worth fitting them. You can replace the existing hex bolts one by one with Torx in a diagonal pattern, takes about an hour or so all in. I had two cars that did it, a 1987 E28 520i (no damage) and a 1989 325i when the camshaft lobe punched the bolt head through the centre coolant gallery. That made a mess.
Ninja is so cool!
It's amazing brah these A holes think that they have the best car in the world they watch u like what u have is garbage but can't afford simple maintenance
the way Ninja looks up when he says millionaire
Reminds me of a joke my dad used to tell on job sites, that I borrowed for the shop. My hourly rate is $50.. If you help it's $100.
so the ninjas favorite word is "yes"
I love the use of the fender cover on that beater.
I'm sure the mechanic was thrilled to hear him recommend that we all go to electric vehicles since there is so little to go wrong with them.
This reminds me of the sign in many garages: Labor $100/hr, $150/hr if you watch, $200/hr if you help.
When I was a young man, up at a garage in North Carolina, outside Jacksonville, the sign was $15, $25, and something like $40.
Johnie is Albanian 😳
I agree tyler 😂, did a valve cover gasket on my f10 n57, This e30 is way easier 😇
Did You say You live in.. Kansas? Kansas Gang!?!?
It's not the European car manufacturers that are to blame for their cars lack of reliability. It's the fucking EU's emissions regulations.
take a serious hit. honda is learning that first hand as they bump up hp to catch up.... as a result they are 12th in reliability falling behind kia(consumer.reports2019)
Hoovie , fuck off with that dam wallet. Nearly every “ car “ youtuber has been promoting the bloody thing. I’m sick of it.
I’m gonna find out where you live and come and put in the part you cut out at 18:30... lol
I religiously change my E90 oil every 15,000 miles weather it needs it or not. Current mileage 250,000 miles
to be desired. I honestly think hybrids are really the way forward for right now.
Try the audio. Volkswagen has always been notorious for no room to work.
This is why I love E30's, They're actually fun to work on!
Ninja is sharp, my Supercar Mechanic hates BMWs and always say only Mercedes
Personally, I find the older M20 and M30 engines to be fun. They have tighter tolerances which makes older higher mileage engines run rougher, but I've never had a lot of trouble with them. Anything before 1995 is fun to work on.
Car Ninja must start his own youtube channel.
This intro reminds me of Dark S2x1 intro looollll
Does anybody knows where to get those super long wrenches for the fan? I cannot find anything longer than 270 mm.
Ninja is to Tyler, what Bruce is to Regular Car Reviews
Bmw owner , how much oil does it leak? Mechanic- all of it
15 years later BMW is reaping what their lifetime fluids & 15K oil changes have sowed in the attempt to save on warranty maintainence costs. an entire generation of car fanatics that's sworn off anything adorned with a roundel. chris bungle didn't do any favors for bmw either lmao
dumb rich ad? thumb down ...
I'm german, and I'm in the business of government-mandatory car roadworthyness inspections. Without even having seen this video I can relate to the title. It's just what you get when german petrolheads (BMW engineers) create ridiculously overengineered driving machines compliant with the "Freude am Fahren" slogan without considering what those vehicles might look like after 5 years, 120k miles in the hands of drivers who don't understand the complexity of the whole system. I get to see the abyss every time one of those ageing BMWs show up...
wouldn't be a bad Idea to give the car the "jack test" to make sure the viscous coupling in the transfer case is still working. Good luck!
bmw owners think their cars fall under the rolls royce sealed hood fallacy in that they don't break down. truth is pushing the limits of current technology will cause reliability to take a serious hit. honda is learning that first hand as they bump up hp to catch up.... as a result they are 12th in reliability falling behind kia(consumer.reports2019)
I agree tyler 😂, did a valve cover gasket on my f10 n57, This e30 is way easier 😇
13:21. Jonny is a proud Albanian.
Electric cars are simple because you can't fix anything on them. If a motor goes out you replace the whole unit. I don't mind the idea of them, but the implementation leaves a lot to be desired. I honestly think hybrids are really the way forward for right now.
I’m gonna find out where you live and come and put in the part you cut out at 18:30... lol
Albo and bmw go together like peanut butter and jelly sandwich
325iX with 485,000 documented miles. I still have all the records to prove this insane statement. I miss the car.
