I just did the ccv job yesterday. It is possible to get the CCV out from under the manifold without removing the oil filter housing. In around the space where the feed line to the power steering is, the gap is just big enough to route the CCV under, and out. Just thought i'd leave this here :)
Really good videos, excellent work. Some nice tips too. When putting the new oil filter in you should pour some oil in the housing to lube the dry filter and that will stop it being twisted when you tighten it up.
I enjoy all of your BMW series, great content, and I've learned a lot. Keep up the good work!
Holy moly! So bmw knows the CCV system has a crucial maintenance function and is a known oil consumption cause.... Remove fan belt Remove alternator Remove oil filter Remover oilfilter housing Remove throttle body Remove spider legs of formed pipes that connect ccv unit all over the place... Then reverse.... Oh and change the oil & filter. I wish you were in the LA area. My daughter's 2001 530i needs this...🙄
Quite a terrible design to be honest it could be much easier had they put some thought in to it i am doing this job as i type this and its just annoying how much unused there is in the 520-530i’s but bmw decide to cramp everything together still
The worst part is the passage that goes back into the dipstick tube is so tiny, you cant even fit pipe cleaners inside. I had to clean it by forcing large zip ties into it when I did mine last year. I bet it's already clogged again.
huge fan...purchased the parts list and my 15yr old son and i starting on 2003 530i wish us luck...
are ALL tools to do what you've done basic? in other words do i need to get any special tool to complete everything you done?
This is my next project which I'm not looking forward to because the intake needs to be removed. Just did this on my E34
Great video, looking forward to more, cheers
You missed an opportunity to replace the coolant hoses that run under the intake manifold by not removing it when replacing the ccv. They are know to leak and it’s one of those while I’m in there kind of deals. Keep up the good work enjoying the e39 series since I have 2 tourings .
Thanks for watching! It's true, you could go completely Ship of Theseus on any BMW over 5 years old. Luckily most everything is in great shape on this one including those pipes 👍
@@PracticalEnthusiast These pipes looked fine on my 2002 520i but crumbled when I tried removing them. Considering how deep in there they are I figured it was worth changing and I didn't regret it! I used my pilot bearing puller to get the rest of the plastic tube out of of the block.
Yep, I just had mine sprung a leak. At least is easier on the earlier e39, with the M52.
@@PatricioGarcia1973 what are the pipe name ?
I was thinking the same as my 530i just sprung a leak after changing the radiator and reservoir! Oh well here I go again this time the CCV AND ALL the coolant hoses are going to be changed.
Fantastic video used this for so many references that my shop manual made hard to find
Good video, the engine and bay look great.
Amazing video!
Frist of all - GREAT videos man! One question to you: why didn’t you take of the air intake manifold and change the coolant pipes which runs underneath?
Solid work
Great Video 🙏👍🏻
Excellent as I'm about to tear down the front in order to do the same. That said, have you changed your front crank seal since you were in there or perhaps you've done it already. My is leaking pretty bad so I'll be replacing it as well. I'll look at the oil pressure tubes and if nothing else, blow them out since I didn't order them before catching your video.
Love your videos! Tip with the oil dipstick tube, did you clean it out? It's known for the milkshake from ccv to block it up! Some wire, acetone and air line are great tools for clearing it!
Thanks! Yep, I cleaned it out but it wasn't blocked thankfully.
Good job man ! I’ll use your videos as a guide when I’ll put my hands to work on my M52tuB25
Hey man good video i plan on doing this to my 2004 530i m54b30 engine. So it is possible to have access to all of the ccv while changing the oil filter housing gasket without removing the intake? Sorry for the questions man I just also wanted to ask if the removal of the fan is necessary in order to do these 2 jobs? Appreciate you man if you can reply to this.
This is ASMR heaven; most beautiful car in the world getting cleaned up. Can you do this on my 2000 e39 528i with 452000 kms on it?
What spray did you use for cleaning at 3:24 ?
My engine bay is like black w years worth of oils leaks in it. I wish I could get it as clean as this. I bought degreaser and cleaned a bit but it’ll never look this good unless I power wash my engine bay.
Great video btw. Just got done replacing all the stuff you did in this video.
Hi there new subscriber here… quick question, is there a reason why you are using the green version of the liqui moly engine oil?
The green tint acts as a dye to help identify leaks. It also just looks cool. And it was a few $ less than the other liqui moly synthetics. It was a win-win from my perspective.
Ah yeah! Great idea… I thought it was a different formula than the regular blue one. I Will definitely use it on my next oil change, thanks for responding!
it kind of sucks that even a low mileage e39 needs work still although it is a very clean car
BMW needs to stop with the plastic parts
Cheers man, very handy video
