Here's something essential for anyone doing this... depending on how you have the car supported on Jack stands, or whatever, place 200lbs of weight into the trunk before dropping the rear subframe to prevent the car from tipping over the supporting platform (if it applies to how you have the car supported)

You idiot!! Read the manual

I’ve never tried these waterless spray bottles… so I can just spray on my car even if it’s really dirty and wipe and repeat till it looks clean?

Thanks, Will. Got my E92 M3 washed today and this happened on the driver’s side. Also got a “Low Beam Malfunction” in a dark parking garage. Hope drying it out brings back the bulb.

I did my oil change and it some how resulted to misfire. Any guess? It is cylinders 1-4

Hi mate, 1:42 the bracket that you removing, are they same as normal e92 or has to be M3, do you know the parts number please?

Can you Tell the weight of the car ?😃 Great Build!

The A90 Supra community has had a MYRIAD of issues with SPL suspension components. Especially when it comes to the bearings/ball joints used.

Best video on Internet!! Thanks bro

Both air filters should flow towards engine!

thanks for a great video! The discount code still works in June 2024. Saves $30.00.

Man, SPL quality has really gone way down the past couple of years... Snapped arm to knuckle bolts, revised studs that still snap, tension strut/thrust arms breaking due to too thin walls, endlinks without proper clearance for popular coilovers (Ohlins R&T), and now cutting production corners due to "high demand..." I've personally experienced two of those failure modes. Shameful.

Mine is a 2013 M6 with 57k miles. The oil is changed every 2000 miles with Liquimoly 5w40. I dont care what Bmw says. I also change the DCT oil and differential oil every 5000 miles.

IMHO best looking is F10 M5

Redlining it like that shouldn’t have been what broke the engine. That was almost certainly just the straw that broke the camels back. These are performance engines made to be driven hard. This is clearly from either a significant defect in the oil pump, or the prior owner absolutely destroyed it.

Seems like there are quite some design flaws with SPL E9X products. Ti bolts thread into aluminum was not a good idea either, my tie rod end housing stripped upon first installation. I would suggest swap all Ti bolts to steel if you want to run them. There was not many companies make lower control arm, I went for MRT so far so good except the jam nuts came loose 2 times because of the heavy load on track.

I think I actually commented on one of your earlier videos about the risks of running SPL equipment. Good customer service is not an excuse for how many serious failures have been documented on the forums with SPL products on the e9x chassis. Someone lost their e9x m3 at Laguna on T1 from an LCA failure similar to this. It is very pretty equipment but I would never be able to trust that my car was safe with any of their parts installed. Glad you are okay and nothing was damaged!!

Using MRT engineering. Simple, solid and it works. Anyway, I was the one that got in touch with you on your IG. That noise is exactly what I experienced. It’s your rear brake shields rubbing on the rotor hats. I took mine off and the noise went away.

Thanks for being transparent. Great response from SPL, they couldnt have done more to fix their mistake.

Thanks for sharing, at least it didn't pop out the other way, which could have been dramatic. The scratching sound seems related to wheel rotation - maybe check the brake backing plates if they are not bent/touching?

SPL isn’t great. Period. I’ve seen multiple failures similar to this, and countless instances of the titanium hardware they use on their products backing out-rendering any adjustments you’ve made useless throwing your alignment off in the process. The factory arms are absolutely fantastic, and take the abuse well. There are other ways to adjust suspension geometry up front without the use of adjustable arms that only serve to weaken the suspension and over complicate alignments.

SPL is a reputable company, sucks that this happened to them but at least they took no shortcuts to get you back on track. If it was truly a terrible company they would leave you in the dust and be standoffish. This occurrence should make them an even better brand

Glad you are ok. Unfortunately I haven’t been confident with SPL product. I only use their front trust arm caster monoball. I only use stock arms.

Glad you're safe bro, I had a defective OEM tie rod that disconnected the ball joint out the boot. Found out by accident when I was changing my low beam bulbs

Will, how did u disconnect that connector again?

I installed my carbon fiber drive shaft a month ago. The diff is leaking and have to replace the seals. All you have to do is disconnect the drive shaft and axles and the three mounting nuts and bolts and the diff lowers right?

If you don’t need to take the wheels off, invest in ramps instead

I would like to know how 5w-50 flows through a standard oil filter.

How much does it cost on your OBD II? what happens if I dont register the battety? Not working eventually?

uniballs shift around, as long as the threads aren't turning and there isn't play in them I would think its fine

After you have your car off for 10-15 mins the drivetrain malfunction error clears itself until you actually drive it again.

About to go ahead and do mines. Did you feel a difference after the new fluid?

Hello, Was your car on when you re-filled the fluid? I keep reading that the car needs to be on and it's very confusing me.

Heads up to you mate. Just 1 thing. Try get the car higher next time your under and you wont drop everything and stuff flying all over. Bit higher you can get both arms in 1 to pull of push one to steady.!!!

I really appreciate you putting this tutorial up; I used it to change my gearbox oil over the weekend. I 100% agree that having a good set of large snap ring pliers is a must. I decided to go ahead on the job with my small pliers with the interchangeable head (fully expecting them to break). Although I eventually got them to work (and they didn't break!), it took about 30 minutes of fiddling. That snap ring is a beast and a large set of snap ring pliers makes the job much easier. The only other thing I would add is to make sure you have a device that can get fluid into the gearbox relatively quickly. I had a cheap handpump thing, and when doing the ISTA oil balancing, I couldn't get the additional 2L of oil into the gearbox in time before it reached 40C. I had to redo the process again the next day. The pump you show in this video probably works great, so I'd recommend anyone doing this job get something similar and not attempt it with a handpump like I did.

Looks like you have rear sun shade too!

There is a compensator in the engine that it shuold change gear itself so you dont do things like this so thats your problem. If i do that in mine it automatically shifts the gear up so you dont scream it in first gear. If you get it repaired make sure to mention what you just talked about.

You need to speak to BMW mate. For that little milage they need to do something. I would speak to them.

How do you like the Epic Race tune? Do you notice the difference in power?

Hi Will did you get option 7? I checked on their website and i looked over their options. Just want to confirm.

How do you find the Drexler? And how do you find the difference going from a stock fd to a 4.44?

order at send of carbontec floor pan, how long did it take to arrive into the US

Any chance you could update your video description with the SPL part numbers now that it's complete and the wrong arm was replaced?

bro how much did it cost you?

Heading to laguna on 5/26. Will be nice to see your car there.

This dry method is the way to do it. I had the motive rubber line split and it started spraying brake fluid inside the engine bay and on to the car. The bleeder bottle is backwards, the center tube is where the brake fluid should be going into the bleeder bottle. Also you can use the bleeder bottle to remove the fluid from the reservoir - put the rubber tube into the reservoir, squeeze the bottle, plug the air hole on the bottle with your finger and un-squeeze the bottle.

Very informative videos, hopefully I will run into you at Laguna at some point!

Hi Will. Great video. May I ask where did you get that short sprayer for Sunjoe power washer?

what does this do? gain sound or fresh smell inside the car? lol also whats about the air cowl?
