    • @E39Source

      The 540i's automatic transmission would bolt up the S62, but I don't think it would handle the additional power and torque reliably. Additionally, the M5 was never offered with any automatic gearboxes, so the coding/programming would require a lot of custom software which may not be feasible. The E39 540i M-Tech (2003 only) may be a better option for you, as those are readily available with the automatic.

      Thanks! I think if you've got those fuses in your glovebox fuse panel, you're probably covered for the right side of the diagram. If you do the left side and the seats don't work, you may want to go through the right side of the diagram to see whats missing.

      You can use 51118174185 where the diffuser meets the bumper at the bottom. For the sides, you'll need small self-tapping screws. The factory ones were a 7mm head. BMW never published the part numbers for this hardware, so I usually go through my spare fasteners until I find parts that fit if the original ones were missing.

      I have recently heard this, definitely a bummer. I plan to reproduce this harness, but our shop is absolutely slammed with work right now and this is a lower priority. On E39s that came with PDC from factory, these wires are built into the primary vehicle harness, so extracting them would be quite time consuming- but possible. Keep an eye on E39Source's online store for when I make the reproduction available.

While tightening there were few seconds of sparks and fuse number 6 blow up... Replaced but it instantly blow up again. Could this be fault of actuator, or reason of not disconnecting the battery, or maybe I should check something else?

      I've replaced a lot of these without disconnecting the battery and have never experienced issues. Obviously something has shorted out on your car, you'll need to inspect the wiring in this area thoroughly to see what got pinched/damaged and repair it. If there is no visible wiring damage, you might try disconnecting the new actuator to see if the fuse still pops.

    Thank you for the video. Do you think the original alternator need to be replaced even when it works fine at the moment? I have a 2006 BMW M5 V10- third gear engine malfunction and I think it might be the alternator that is part of this problem. Thank you. ISTA has a code 002788 and code 0027D0 DME: Fuel pressure, setpoint/actual-valve comparison at maximum pressure DME: Fuel-pressure control adaptation

      If the charging system is functioning properly, I wouldn't replace the alternator. Your codes indicate a fuel related issue.

    So I love the E39 M5. Any experience or familiarity with the E39 platform and LS engines swaps? Equal amount of money after all said and done as an M5 or a complete money pit of an idea to try.

      It's been done before, but it's never something I would ever attempt or recommend. Sure the LS is cheap and powerful, but that's not what the E39 M5 is about. I think the S62 makes the M5 an M5.

    What should I expect to pay for the glass guy to replace this seal?

      Somewhere around $200 per side.

    Boy, if only BMW would differentiate between the third light and the L/R units! Thanks for this video I determined my center light was the culprit. Completely melted, original 25-year-old part manufactured in February 1998. “Driving” me nuts for months. Thanks a ton for this!

    I replaced the first half of the cable, but now wont my hood close

    • @E39Source

      First half as in starting from the handle? This would not affect the hood's ability to latch shut.

    years late, great vid ! About to do my endlinks. How the hell does a shop and BMW dealership both not notice that missing bolt. Ridiculous
