WE DID IT! We got her to build boost! I sure hope it lasts...
In today's video we are tearing back into our FREE BMW E90. Its a 2008 335i with the infamous N54 engine. We get rid of those sketchy spark plugs, do some work on the fuel pump, we smoked it, found multiple new leaks, and tested out some new components.

Awesome job. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉
Noice! It's a great feeling when you've been chasing a problem and finally find a fix.
Strong work! I know the feeling g working with these cars. Congrats
Nothing like starting the day off with a fresh video!
Big thumbs up on the first 10 seconds. Brightened everyone's day w that hootin.
I had 2009 335 coupe loved it when it was running fine. It was a bit of a nightmare between the waste gates, high pressure fuel pump and fuel injectors. I traded it in before my warranty was up as the two HPFP, the waste gates and three times the injectors were replaced under warranty for a 2011 328 sport wagon needed more practicality. I had the sport wagon for 5 years without one single problem.
SWEET, SWEET VICTORY. Although the jobs not done, its such a big relief to know you don't have to dump money into turbos! 3k+ Saved
Loving this series on fixing the N54 👍 when you can please try and find a different sponsor than BetterHelp. Not only are they significantly more expensive than a traditional therapist, but they don't have a great system in place for vetting their "therapists", and have been in hot water in the past with the FTC for breaking client patient confidentiality by selling user data. I agree mental health is incredibly important, but there are MUCH better options than BetterHelp.
GREAT JOB MAN! 🎉🎉🎉 congratulations on beating that challenge. That Smog machine is a blessing. I celebrated that big win with you while looking that Video 😂 💪💪💪
Hell yeah man. So happy for you
Nice work!
Way to go!!! Congrats brother
Hell yea
Great job
Feels so good when it’s fixed
We did it 😃
"YYYEEEEEEHAAAAAWWWWWW!!!!!"
Great job fixing it bro!
21:40 sound good
You did it bro. You gave the N54 new life
seeing the happiness when it was fixed put a huge smile on my face bro it’s always such a good feeling getting something fixed after running around for a while
Bravo 🎉🍾 👏👏👏👏
I think that fuel pump plausibility fault is pretty common and doesn't cause issues. I want to say mine has had that for the whole time I've owned it - since 2010.
Correct. Had a stage 2 Walbro in mine, same code, no issues.
Good job man!
Awesome, knew you’d find the solution soon
17:13 Alec, I remember those drives quite well and now I still live in that wonderful cool and clean summer air, just 300 miles south of you!
oh man... all good but better help. they honestly suck. Selling personal info of already vulnerable people... That's not nice. Please I ask you to reconsider and ditch them.
I was wondering how you are doing, Alec I can see that you are doing great!
Good Job Brother!
yes! keep it up! I am preparing a guibo disc replacement + center mounting driveshaft replacement. Maybe also an idea for a video.
Heck yeah, this is fantastic and covers some diagnostics I think I need to try on an upcoming project for myself. As mentioned above, you have definitely been an inspiration and a catalyst to me and many others. Keep on rocking!
You dont even know how to use the ventus properly😂😂😂. Push the button twice so you can check with the leak meter if the leak was fixed or not 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ 🤦♂️
I love these videos bro! Thank you! I feel for you when you're struggling with the car. Talk about a case of "Been there done that"! LOL. But it's not a joke when you're in the thick of it and nothing seems too= make sense or work. By the way those are actually called "Boost Solenoids. The waste gate actually on the turbos and pull the arms to "actuate" the flaps inside. I've put "XHPTuner" on my car which is a transmission app you can get for your phone. It makes it so you can really change those extremely lazy and slow shifts when using the paddles or even in the regular drive modes. It's made a world of difference with the shifting and torque settings. You can do a huge amount of upgrading on the trans with it. Of course now comes the time when you may want to consider your many options. You can put on some serious power if you want and still keep the OEM turbos through going with some Mods. I think you might already have the down pipes?? Not sure but those are VERY awesome upgrade as well as the front intercooler then some E85 (E40 blend or E50 makes a HUGE difference) This is all while using the MHD app to tune your car. Ive gotten to the point where I'm Running a Custom tune from JSRTuning with up graded 17T turbos (I think your New ones might be those same type) When you do (or if? lol) the new Intercooler make sure you get the larger sized 7.5 or even a 7 inch cooler as I learned the more expensive way that once I put the smaller 5 inch intercooler on mine I wished I'd gone bigger when I found myself able to go further with the mods 6 moths later. ROCK ON BRO!! I still recommend checking out the "Zero to 60" channel as Andrew was a HUGE help to me when I watched the videos on his cheap 17T turbo car build. All his mistakes were SO much help! Don't go for the 3.5 T-Map right away as it's not really any help unless you have the bigger turbos on and all the other mods first. LOVE YA MAN!! SAGE is so SWEET! Wow you spoil your chickies! LOL. Long Johns for feed!
Yesssssss!!!! 🎉🎉🎉 wooohooo!!! NICE!!!! Let’sss goooooo!!!!
Great job dude! You're an inspiration!
bro yeah!
When shifting gears in automatic transmissions, for example, when shifting from "D" to "R", my vehicle becomes very stiff. Is it related to the differential mount? good luck
Where did you get those kings for that big of a lift ?

Great job bravo.
don’t usually comment on videos but after watching this i was wondering would you like to service my vehicle i would like to find a way to reach n connect to you i would really love for you to service my car n bring it back to life
amazing
Hey Alec, great content! I love BMWs. I came across this video as I was looking at E39 content on UA-cam. I wish I knew about this video 4 months ago I would have signed up. I am a student in the UK and I wanted a car to go to my work, to be honest I can't find much part time work because I don't have a car. As being a licensed SIA security supervisor you have to be able to travel. Getting a car is a bit of a financial dent for an international student. Still trying to save up hopefully one day I will have an E39. Wish me luck, good luck to you and thanks for being a great human being who wants to give back to the community, more power to you!
Alec, absolutely throw some more tests on that Beemer, I'm up too watching vids. you're a wealth for knowledge man Thanks for Sharing...
You're a very genuine and straight off the the cuff type off Guy! I came up on your channel looking at tips and tricks on how to do my own repairs and maintenance on my 2006 Chevy Silverado 2500HD 6.6L Duramax LBZ Vin code D and what a video I got to say you made those folks and young lady very happy with your gesture I mean I couldn't believe it, who gives a car away after all that work done to it. Wow! Thanks for Sharing...
People like you making regular guys like us have a much easier time replacing B.S. like this haha Thanks!
Hey Alec, great video, keep on keeping on!! We are all holding our breath for this car 😊 I wanted to update you on my BMW E90 with the N52B25. Not sure if you remember, I told you last time that the car was burning a crazy amount of oil, like 1 quart in less than 200 miles. The dealer I bought it from negotiated with me a deal to replace the pistons with the new design pistons. The car is now absolutely cherry. I've driven almost 1000 miles and no oil consumption at all. Really happy with it. I've already done the classic power steering fluid flush on it. Next in line are transmission and diff fluid flushed, and a new radio, because I can't live without at least bluetooth 🤣 Cheers brother!!
No eye protection when sawing or weedeating - have more respect for your eyes! You've only got two for life.
Where did you purchase your BMW icom from?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. The video was essential for me to be able to make the necessary repairs on my 2002 BMW 320i 2.2 24v. My name is RaGe and I live in Brazil, on the southern border with Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay
