Part 2 of project X5 is here!
We are addressing the blue smoke issue and replacing valve stem seals in this episode.
I thought working on an SUV would be perhaps a bit easier cause it's a bigger car, but that's a big Nein. The space to work with is so tight my hands are still hurting and I dropped so many tools in the engine bay that completely disappeared.
Sorry it's been a minute since I posted something. I've been beyond busy as next week on Friday we are leaving for vacation in the US and I'm trying to get ready and finish a couple of episodes in time to release while I'm absent as I won't be able to edit for at least 3-4 weeks.
Yes, I will be recording this road trip! I'm picking a cheap, neglected E46 M3 6-speed in Utah that I'm planning to do some maintenance on and drive to California. Should be a fun trip!
I'll post more details and some general updates soon. Right now, I'm editing the following episode. As always, thank you for your support!

4:52 Excellent editing!
Unrelated but the new intake plenums look absolutely brilliant, I’m only 21 living in Ireland and I would say there’s only 10 registered E60 M5’s in the country!! If I won the lotto an E61 is the first car I’d buy. Well done
