      I had an e39 M5. It was a phenomenal car, LeMans Blue over Caramel extended leather. Mighty expensive to use a daily driver and keep to a relatively perfect level on maintenance. I eventually decided to replace mine with an e36 M3, with a Mini in between. The e36 is the far more affordable and reliable car. It's also a lot more raw and fun to daily, but not nearly as comfortable or fast in a straight line.

      Eggzackerly right Jan - greetings from 🇿🇦 - this dude kept me sane during Covid and basically taught me an online course for old school - pre computer E60 series BMW maintenance - for free 😜😈
      And - most importantly he taught us that anyone can learn this stuff, to understand our cars better and drive with confidence 👏👏 - give that man a Bells or a cold 🍺
      Am currently looking for a cheaper version of this car with the 3.0 straight six = an E39 530 or May be even a solid 540i if I can find a decent one
      And I don’t care about the fuel consumption - I just love to drive - listening to Ahmed kilic party music or trance music (at 63 years old !! )
      One Life = Live it !!
      And while the greenies go EV - do they can by tracked and monitored etc - we’ll stay old school and drive like every caveman was designed to = we still got 100% male DNA
      Now where am I going to install that hoist ?? 🤔

    I put turner monoball front control arm bushings on my E46 and I had a very similar experience in regards to the steering. They really transformed the car and it even made the braking feel rock solid. The only downside is that I went through two different sets in less than 30k KM. They would clunk and rattle and simply were not worth the trouble. They also have to be greased periodically. I also recently put redline D4 ATF in my manual transmission and it’s the best fluid I have ever put into this car so atf seems to work in many different applications. Great video!

      For those of you having trouble with shifting while cold, try blipping the throttle up few hundred rpms while pulling lever into the gear. It helps lining up synchromesh in the transmission and it will shift easier.
      I had few manual Bmw's and second gear was always problem when cold. Talking about real cold, up to -35C and this trick worked. Always used only Bmw MTF.

    I don't even own a bmw but i love watching you work on these cars. Also, is that a freaking E type jaguar at 2:17 ?

      Get yourself a bmw life is to short not to enjoy it.... But u have to be prepaired to get urhands dirty some time. Fixing old car yourself is something really special that not many people know about. U fix old bastard, restore it and than smash it into a tree like sreten 😉

    1:06:14 that rumble alone is much more valuable than a whole new m car. Just beautiful. I'm glad someone as good as you own this car.

    Love your edits when you’re torquing something and when you put the velocity stacks in, oddly satisfying

    Let's not kid ourselves, this is the best BMW ever made and it will remain like this.
    Iconic design, fast, comfortable, sounds amazing, drives great, doesn't fight you with a lot of computer assistance.

  • @andrzejkulakowski

    Incredible car! Used to be my first own car and still love its design to this day. If I were a transformer I would choose to transform into this car 😃

    If this man asked a 100k for it I'd pay for it without thought
    Especially because it's rare and going up in value, not to mention it is the best M5 BMW ever built

    • @Xtoxinlolinecronomicon
      @Xtoxinlolinecronomicon 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      They'll hit that amount sooner than you think. This car never declined in popularity ever. But gets rarer with every passing year. The 3rd party tuner versions are even rarer.

    53:00, if you remove the fuel pump fuse and crank the car for a bit, that releases pressure on the system and so you won't spill any fuel

    Question: Will TuV inspection be a problem with the Monoballs? I understand DE regulations can be a bit tricky when it comes to using aftermarket mechanical parts which would need to be certified by the manufacturer.

    • @FASTU-mz3tm

      ussualy they are put on, and before tuv taken off, then back on after passing tuv.

      Never had problems with aftermarket bushings like PU for example. I also have different coupling rods in my e30 which are actually for a mk3 mondeo and replace the rubber bushings with uniballs.

      And the e46 was a little smaller but nearly identical. Truly a timeless design, nothing gaudy or extra.

    Fantastic content dude. You channel is the best motor related channel on the tubes. Bad Obsession Motorsports would be a tie but they take too long between episodes.
    I would love to see you do a Mercedes W124 500E or an E320 Cabriolet.

So please hear me out and bring more content, it is so satisfying! Good man and great job! Absolutely amazing
