A diesel engine can take a lot of abuse but when you add more boost and more fuel things can heat up quickly. In this video, I show you one cheap modification that every turbo diesel car or truck should have. This could warn you of a potential issue so you don’t blow your diesel engine up or start melting pistons and valves.

  1. 1000 Fahrenheit is like part throttle. You can run up to 1600-1700 Fahrenheit full throttle.

    Just make sure that you leave temp limiters in, so the car pulls fueling when you hit the limiter.

  2. Hmmm….welding normal steel like st-37 or stainles on to cast iron..🤔 if that stick's over a time, I'd would like to know what type of gas and thread you used.
    By the way, the reason you burn throug aluminum, is oxidacion. Brush or grind the welding surface just right before weldin.
    And last but not least, Great youtube chanel 👍👍👍👍

  3. A vacuum cleaner and magnet on a extention will collect all the metal shavings so no need to remove the turbo. Plugged a m12 bolt to do oven cleaner access point for turbo and dpf.

  4. Put a little wet clay mold over the things you want to weld in place and not loosing while you’re welding like this tight place and small welding for cheap and professional. That’s the point in welding with purified water and clay mold like cheap with good temperature control experience and good welding outcome. Literally, welding needs some experiences for good results.

  5. Shitty life pro tip: if you drill that hole with the engine running, the turbo will act like a vacuum cleaner and suck away the chips.

  6. Hi From the uk … I have this engine in my s320 cdi it’s covered 150k full service history and my family owned for 8!years . It starts drives like new … actually the whole car is still like new absolutely no warning lights and no problems what so ever … i got a very very good one. My question is what kind of performance over the reliability are you looking and or getting from these mods please ….. also have a 350 sl 3.7 that is a pure toy for me …. what can be done to this for more performance please

  7. Couldn’t you just grab off the temperature from the particle filter?

    I drive a BMW e90 LCI 330XD with a mild tune and it’s just a great car!
    It’s properly tuned in a shop, got a racing suspension, a bit software customization for the automatic transmission, aluminum intercooler, the small bmw performance carbon spoiler lip on the trunk, a thick steering wheel with paddles from a M3 SMG, an adjustable strut brace in the front and nice grippy Michelin tires (even in winter… ok my winter wheel set is actually nicer than my beat up alloy wheels in the summer 🤔 weird)

    Over all is a nice, normal looking 3 series nobody would be suspicious of but some diesel-heads…
    Only these weird people would notice a that this XDrive version is sitting 8cm lower than stock because of the fully adjustable suspension, the bigger intercooler of just That all of this counted together says “don’t mess with this diesel!”

    This combination of daily driver and mean beast is what I love about a properly tuned diesel… good mileage, smooth running until you put your foot down and all hell breaks loose!

  8. I would like to know how removing the vanes in the intake manifold effects engine performance? Mine has a broken vane that almost went into the intake! If removed will an error code cause a problem and how can I fix that ? Would also like to know if 647 injectors for a diesel sprint 2.1 liter can be used in the 211? Thanks!

  9. Doesn’t know how to weld, yet thinks he’ll try welding to cast iron. This should be interesting.

    5:50 – after drilling through exhaust manifold, uses shop vac to clear debris outside the manifold. What about inside the manifold? Uh Oh!
