    There's been this offal squealing coming from my car, and I finally got my answer, I thought it was gonna be like a diff issue, because it's coming from the rear, and only happens under load, but nope, it's the muffler whistling, because it's starting to brake down internally and now it whistles. Point is, Just having this noise figured out has taken such a weight off my shoulders it's wild, I'm no longer hearing that, and associating it with the fear that my differential or something like that is dyeing on me, and it's just such a relief, the consensus right now is the car is in great shape, just needs an alinement and tire rotation. The confidence that comes with simply knowing exactly what sounds are coming from where on your car is so nice.

    Daily a 540i 6 speed for 11.5 years. I fully agree with your comments about keeping them going, always something to do on them and some big tickets items. I've spent allot more on parts for it that what I bought it for. But with out a doubt worth it and the thought I will have to part ways with the car in less than a year due to other life changes is already making me sad!
    I did recently find the one E39 fix that isn't documented on the internet, how to strip and rekey the driver door lock, when your missing the key!

I broke my femur, left wrist was crushed, and I now have a plate in my pelvis. Moral of the story the e39 m5 is built like a tank it saved my life.

    I live in FL and you don't need a helmet to ride a motorcycle either. I cycle and I cringe when I see other people riding without a helmet, especially because I know my helmet was the only thing that saved me from certain death last year when I was hit by a car.
    On a motorcycle you stand basically no chance of survival if you have an accident without a helmet.
    That aside, I love the look and sound of the E39's! The headlights and taillights are what I envision when someone says "BMW" its a shame recent Bimmers have lost some of their heritage.
