Do every one a favour and stop an oil thread before it starts.... Get an owners manual and get an oil that's suited to the climate of where you live.

How bad were the cracks?

I know an Andrew that had one about 11 years back. Same Andrew maybe? Was a white one. Great car, like an M3 with torque!

Yeah, imo nothing beats the old fashioned way of washing a car, but using some methods to avoid swirls and other paint damage is important. I have a middle range Karcher and it's adequate for deck and house cleaning but I don't tend to use it on the car because it's only good for loosening mud or grass clippings and it's a bit of a hassle to get it all set up.

Yup 5 weeks in. Still early days but there's always a reason in my head not to have one as 20 years is a pretty decent smoking career. To keep 'busy' i finally finished an old kitset model I had stored away.

Had to get mine valued again for insurance today. Same value as it was 2 years ago and with 20,000kms less.

I have an entry in my phone called "Cluster repair kev" who's in Chch. Did a great job on my old M5's cluster and was $150 back in 2015. I can provide the ph number via PM. @jeffbebe can also vouch for his work.

Nope, still here but i'm barely a Millennial..... Born in '83

I think if you were really particular you could order clear indicator lenses, unless it was restricted by law.

It has got facelift lights, just that the indicators aren't clear like on msport versions.

I didn't forget to take them to Kyu's. sold.

Sweet will do Kyu.

In mint condition. No broken tabs and these fit perfectly with no gaps or issues with them popping loose. $70

Gave the M5 a service this morning including : -Engine oil and filter -Engine air and cabin filters -PS Reservoir rubber mounts -Boot struts -Switched back to oem chrome front grilles Angle of the camera shot makes it look like the M5 is on the piss but it's not

If they're not leaking there's no reason to. The solenoid packs are easy to get to with just removing the intake pipes connecting to the manifold.

Any one have a pair? Can do a swap for a 10w LED bulb kit.

Wonder if the current generation of drake bashing chain smokers will be of the same opinion of current pop music in 30 years time? I love alt music, even without vox is fine as long as the intstruments are sounding interesting. Any King Crimson and The Melvins fans?

Pour some water over the window and check that it drains out via the drain hole in the lower corner of the door. if it does then your door gaskets are fine, if not you should see water running down between the door card and the lower inner part of the painted door. if this is the case then it's time to entirely remove the door gasket sealant and apply new sealant - I wouldn't use silicone as it will be a pig of a job when the rear window regulators eventually need replacing.

If it's not tired I reckon that's a reasonable price. A lot of V12 for the money.

Mechanical sympathy and a generous wallet is the key.

Definitely needs a cert if it's been converted though. It's the changes to the brake pedal system which causes it.

I started a collection last year of M5's. The Ottomobile brand models are pretty nicely done. The e39 I have has a fair bit of orange peel in the paint finish so would like to wet sand and polish it up.

I thought all e36 coupes left the factory with M sport suspension?

W210 had a bad reputation for rust as well. But probably nothing to worry about for this example.

Indeed they are. The active seats were an e38 option I think. This car also looks to have been used for Photo shoots. Individual spec data is protected.
